The figure of the “professional” looms large in our contemporary society as an ideal for economic activity and socio-political inclusion, and even as a model for individual self-development. But how and when did this figure arise? And what has led professional activity to become such an essential part of our personal, social, moral, economic, and political life? While Max Weber and others have famously addressed these questions, this book reveals a more nuanced history of the concept of “profession” and “professional duty,” and offers the first comprehensive study of the discourse of professional ethics from a historical perspective. Italy, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom provide most of the rich corpus of philosophical, juridical, and theological sources discussed throughout the book in its longue duree journey from Ancient Rome to the present.

Die Gewaltfrage ist eine der grossen Fragen der Menschheitsgeschichte. Die Urszene der Gewalt ist die biblische Geschichte von Kain und Abel und dem Brudermord. Der ≫homo violens≪ steht im Zentrum der Beitraege dieses Bandes, der den Zusammenhang von Hochkultur und Gewalt behandelt und im Rahmen der Kooperation der Universitaet Bonn mit dem College de France (Ernst-Robert-Curtius-Gastprofessur) entstanden ist. Im ersten Teil widmen sich sieben Beitraege der Theorie und Geschichte der Gewalt in Theologie, Medizin, Politischer Theorie, Philosophie, Psychologie und Geschichte; im zweiten Teil befassen sich sechs Beitraege speziell mit dem Zusammenhang von Literatur und Gewalt im Zeitraum vom 18. bis zum 20. Jahrhundert. Die multidisziplinaeren Beitraege verstehen sich als Elemente einer Diskursgeschichte der Gewalt. The question of violence is one of the great questions of human history. The primal scene of violence is the biblical story of Cain and Abel and fratricide. This anthology deals with the connection between high culture and violence and was produced as part of the cooperation between the University of Bonn and the College de France (Ernst-Robert-Curtius Visiting Professorship). In the first part, seven contributions are devoted to the theory and history of violence in theology , medicine, political theory, philosophy, psychology and history; in the second part, six contributions deal specifically with the connection between literature and violence in the period from the 18th to the 20th century. The multidisciplinary contributions are understood as elements of a discourse history of violence.

Looted art, art theft, colonial collections of cultural objects - not only since the controversy over the Nigerian Benin bronzes at the Humboldt Forum in the German capital Berlin and other European museums a dispute over how to deal with exhibits from colonial contexts erupted. The debate, which has been ongoing among experts for some time, gained new political momentum in 2018 when France’s President Macron announced that objects of colonial provenance in French museums would be returned to their societies of origin, and initiated concrete steps. The demand for restitution of art treasures of colonial provenance raises fundamental and extremely complex questions about the presence of the past in ethical, scientific, political, legal and aesthetic dimensions. They concern art historians and museum professionals, cultural historians, historians of science, lawyers and history teachers as well as visitors to museums with colonial collections, who are made aware of the provenance of objects there. This volume, published in Germany in 2021, was a first attempt at illuminating the historio-cultural dimensions of the debate and bringing them to the attention of a broader public. German and international authors contributed essays making clear, how important it is to take a differentiated look at a central part of the current social debate on the legacy of colonialism. This volume was well received. As colonialism is by definition an international phenomenon, the current debate in Germany is presented here in an English language version now.

Sprachbildung hat einen emanzipatorischen Charakter. Dieser wird als Ziel des Geschichtsunterrichts im Sinne des historischen Erzaehlens mit agency ausgearbeitet. Zudem wird die Professionalisierung von Geschichtslehrer*innen in diesem Bereich fokussiert, wobei studentische Planungsgespraeche sprachbildenden Geschichtsunterrichts mit einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse untersucht werden. Die Ergebnisse offenbaren grundsaetzliche Schwierigkeiten der Student*innen mit dieser Aufgabe. Daher wird ein Rahmenmodell sprachbildenden Geschichtsunterrichts entwickelt, das auf die Foerderung von agency ausgerichtet und sowohl fuer die Professionalisierung von Geschichtslehrer*innen als auch fuer die Praxis des Geschichtsunterrichts relevant ist. Using an emancipatory approach to historical learning, agency is emphasized as a goal for academic language learning in history classes. Furthermore, the professionalization of history teachers for academic language learning is examined. Planning conversations of history lessons that include academic language learning are analyzed empirically. The results show that students find it discernibly difficult to think of academic language and historical learning together. For this reason, a framework model of academic language learning with an emancipatory approach is developed. It is of importance for the professionalization of history teachers since it answers the fundamental question of how to implement academic language learning in history classes.

Das Leben stammt aus dem Meer. Gleichzeitig aber war die See immer auch ein gefaehrlicher Ort, dem viele Leben zum Opfer fielen. Stuerme und Schiffbruch sind untrennbar mit der Schifffahrt verbunden und kosteten unzaehlige Menschen das Leben. Seekriege wurden mit aeusserster Brutalitaet gefuehrt. Die Arbeit an Bord der Schiffe zaehlte zu den gefaehrlichsten Berufen. Unfaelle, Meutereien und Ueberfaelle gingen einher mit Mangelernaehrung und fehlender Hygiene, was zu entsprechenden Krankheiten fuehrte. Aber auch an Land war man nicht in Sicherheit vor den Gefahren des Meeres. Sturmfluten bedrohten die Bevoelkerung der Kuestenregionen. Und heute ist der maritime Lebensraum durch Klimawandel und Verschmutzung selbst bedroht. Die Ambiguitaet zwischen Faszination und Schrecken, Abenteuer und Desaster im Verhaeltnis von Mensch und Meer fand und findet ihren Niederschlag auch in der Literatur und bildenden Kunst. Dieses Buch dokumentiert die Ergebnisse einer internationalen und interdisziplinaeren Tagung, die dieses Wechselverhaeltnis in kultur-, wirtschafts- und sozialhistorischer Perspektive diskutierte, und gewaehrt Einblicke in eine gleichnamige Ausstellung an der Heinrich-Heine-Universitaet Duesseldorf.

Die Jagd strukturierte das soziale Leben an europaeischen Fuerstenhoefen vom Spaetmittelalter bis ins 19. Jahrhundert massgeblich mit. Vom Fruehling bis in den Herbst verbrachten die Herrscher und ihre Angehoerigen einen Grossteil der Zeit auf Schloessern, die von weitlaeufigen Wildparks umgeben waren. Fuer den erwarteten Jagderfolg war die geregelte Interaktion mit Hunden, Falken und Pferden ebenso wichtig wie die zahlreiche Praesenz von Hirschen, Reihern und Fasanen. Die Beitraege des Bandes untersuchen die Lebensbedingungen dieser hoefischen Jagdtiere und gehen deren ambivalenten Beziehungen mit Menschen unterschiedlichen Standes nach. Sie fragen nach dem Zusammenhang zwischen den ?biopolitischen“ Praktiken der Abrichtung und Hege und neuen Konzepten des Regierens, die in der Sattelzeit vom Wildgehege auf das staatliche Territorium ausgeweitet wurden.
