World History as the History of Foundations, 3000 BCE to 1500 CE
Author: Michael Borgolte
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004415084
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 783
Book Description
In World History as the History of Foundations, 3000 BCE to 1500 CE, Michael Borgolte investigates the origins and development of foundations from Antiquity to the end of the Middle Ages. In his survey foundations emerge not as mere legal institutions, but rather as “total social phenomena” which touch upon manifold aspects, including politics, the economy, art and religion of the cultures in which they emerged. Cross-cultural in its approach and the result of decades of research, this work represents by far the most comprehensive account of the history of foundations that has hitherto been published.

The Hebrews in America
Europe and the Black Sea Region
Author: Dominik Gutmeyr
Publisher: LIT Verlag Münster
ISBN: 3643802862
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
When the scientific study of the Black Sea Region began in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, initially commissioned by adjacent powers such as the Habsburg and the Russian empires, this terra incognita was not yet considered part of Europe. The eighteen chapters of this volume show a broad range of thematic foci and theoretical approaches - the result of the enormous richness of the European macrocosm and the BSR. The microcosms of the many different case studies under scrutiny, however, demonstrate the historical dimension of exchange between the allegedly opposite poles of `East' and `West' and underscore the importance of mutual influences in the development of Europe and the BSR.

Psychology from an Empirical Standpoint
Author: Franz Brentano
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113484381X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 632
Book Description
Franz Brentano's classic study Psychology from an Empirical Standpoint was the most important of Brentano's works to be published in his lifetime. A new introduction by Peter Simons places Brentano's work in the context of current philosophical thought. He is able to show how Brentano has emerged since the 1970s as a key figure in both contemporary European and Anglo-American traditions and crucial to any understanding the recent history of philosophy and psychology.
