Friedrich Zoepfl und Widmung SIGNIERT am Vorsatz v. Zoepfl für Ludwig Barth v. 1933 ///////////// Ludwig Barth-Uchatzy (auch abkürzend Ludwig Barth; * 7. Juni 1898 in Bruchsal; gest. 25. Oktober 1983 in Karlsruhe) war ein deutscher Maler, Zeichner, Graphiker und Illustrator. Er studierte an der Karlsruher Akademie bei Walter Georgi und Walter Conz. Er gehörte zur Realistengruppe und verschrieb sich während des Nationalsozialismus einem idealisierenden Weltbild, das sein Genre bestimmte. Er war Mitglied im Verein für Original-Radierung München und im Reichsverband Bildender Künstler Deutschlands ///////////////// Friedrich Zoepfl (* 6. Januar 1885 in Murnau; gest. 19. Dezember 1973 in Dillingen an der Donau) war katholischer Priester und Historiker. Nach dem Besuch der Volksschule in Murnau (1891-97) kam Friedrich Zoepfl in das bischöfliche Konvikt in Dillingen an der Donau und wurde hier in die zweite Gymnasialklasse aufgenommen. Im Anschluss an das Abitur (1905) folgte das Studium der Philosophie und Theologie an der Universität München. 1909 wurde Zoepfl in München zum Priester geweiht. Nach kurzer Seelsorgetätigkeit in Dillingen und Polling konnte er seine Studien in München fortsetzen und 1911 mit einer patristischen Arbeit zum Dr. theol. promovieren. Als Benefiziat veröffentlichte er mehrere Arbeiten zur Mindelheimer Regionalgeschichte. Nach dem Tod von Georg Grupp erhielt Zoepfl 1923 die Stelle als Benefiziat und Bibliothekar der Fürsten zu Oettingen-Wallerstein in Maihingen. In der Oettingen-Wallersteinschen Bibliothek (heute im Besitz der Universitätsbibliothek Augsburg) begann Zoepfl mit den Vorarbeiten zu seiner großen Deutschen Kulturgeschichte, die in zwei Bänden 1928/30 erschien. 1930 wurde er als Professor für Geschichte und Kunstgeschichte an die Philosophisch-Theologische Hochschule in Dillingen berufen. Hier stand im Mittelpunkt seiner Forschungsarbeit die Augsburger Bistumsgeschichte. Zoepfl unterschrieb nach der Machtübergabe an die Nationalsozialisten zum 11. November 1933 das Bekenntnis der Professoren an den deutschen Universitäten und Hochschulen zu Adolf Hitler und dem nationalsozialistischen Staat. Als Nachfolger von Alfred Schröder (1865-1935) setzte er die von Antonius von Steichele (1816-1889) initiierte »Historisch-statistische Beschreibung des Bistums Augsburg« fort. Auch nach seiner Emeritierung (1953) arbeitete Zoepfl noch über das Thema Bistum Augsburg und seine Bischöfe im Mittelalter und im Reformationsjahrhundert. Es gelang ihm, in mühevoller Detailarbeit noch zwei umfangreiche Bände 1955 u. 1969 vorzulegen. Das Oeuvre »des bedeutendsten Augsburger Bistumshistorikers« (Rummel) umfasst über 250 Titel.

DUST JACKET: Previous Owner Markings (Price Clipped); Lightly Creased; Lightly Chipped; In Archival Quality Jacket Cover. Linda McQuaig, Author of The Wealthy Banker's Wife. Signed and Inscribed by Author: "Down with deficit hysteria! Linda McQuaig". SYNOPSIS: For the past few years it has been impossible to open a newspaper or watch television news without encountering a terrifying story about our national deficit. No subject has dominated the Canadian political scene more completely. And no subject has been so misunderstood. We watch helplessly as everything from our cherished health care and educational systems to the little hippo at the zoo falls prey to the axe of the deficit slashers. While the media cheer them on, the slashers have become ever more determined to hack away at our social programs, chanting the mantra that doing so is the only way to cut the deficit. But the real source of the problem can be traced - to an astonishing extent - to a particular policy that was imposed on us with virtually no public input, consultation or understanding. With the excitement of a mystery thriller, Shooting the Hippo tells the real story behind the deficit. The book follows a labyrinthine trail through the top levels of government, Wall Street and Bay Street, the media, the C. D. Howe Institute and the financial "monastery" where crucial decisions have been made outside of public view. Along the way, we meet a host of colourful characters, from John Crow, former governor of the Bank of Canada, to a powerful Wall Street guru who incurred the wrath of Canada's financial community, to high-profile journalists who contributed greatly to the deficit hysteria, and a mild-mannered government statistician who almost succeeded in blowing the whistle on the deficit propaganda. McQuaig argues that we've got the wrong deficit culprit and before we all gather for the public shooting, we should consider the consequences. As we gut our social programs in the name of deficit reduction, we risk destroying the very fabric of our country - and its future. A journalist for almost twenty years, Linda McQuaig has covered a wide range of subjects, from the revolution in Iran to the financial dealings of Canada's establishment. Winner of a National Newspaper Award for uncovering the Patti Starr scandal, she has worked for The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star, Maclean's and CBC Radio. Her first book, Behind Closed Doors, an expose of the inequities in Canada's tax system, rocked the financial elite. In 1991 she was awarded an Atkinson Fellowship for journalism in public policy, and her next two books, The Quick and the Dead and The Wealthy Banker's Wife, both became controversial bestsellers.
