Описание: Understanding how medieval textual cultures engaged with the heritage of antiquity (transmission and translation) depends on recognizing that reception is a creative cultural act (transformation). These essays focus on the people, societies and institutions who were doing the transmitting, translating, and transforming -- the "agents". The subject matter ranges from medicine to astronomy, literature to magic, while the cultural context encompasses Islamic and Jewish societies, as well as Byzantium and the Latin West. What unites these studies is their attention to the methodological and conceptual challenges of thinking about agency. Not every agent acted with an agenda, and agenda were sometimes driven by immediate needs or religious considerations that while compelling to the actors, are more opaque to us. What does it mean to say that a text becomes “available” for transmission or translation? And why do some texts, once transmitted, fail to thrive in their new milieu? This collection thus points toward a more sophisticated “ecology” of transmission, where not only individuals and teams of individuals, but also social spaces and local cultures, act as the agents of cultural creativity.

Описание: In this two-volume set, Larry D. Barnett delves into the macrosociological sources of law concerned with society-important social activities in a structurally complex, democratically governed nation. Barnett explores why, when, and where particular proscriptions and prescriptions of law on key social activities arise, persist, and change.The first volume, Societal Agents in Law: A Macrosociological Approach, puts relevant doctrines of law into a macrosociological framework, uses the findings of quantitative research to formulate theorems that identify the impact of several society-level agents on doctrines of law, and takes the reader through a number of case analyses. The second volume, Societal Agents in Law: Quantitative Research, reports original multivariate statistical studies of sociological determinants of law on specific types of key social activities.Taken together, the two volumes offer an alternative to the almost-total monopoly of theory and descriptive scholarship in the macrosociology of law, comparative law, and history of law, and underscore the value of a mixed empirical/theoretical approach.

Описание: Because, it’s said, history is written by the victors, we know plenty about the Patriots’ cause in the American Revolution. But what about the perhaps one-third of the population who opposed independence? They too were Americans who loved the land they lived in, but their position is largely missing from our understanding of Revolution-era American political thought. With God against the Revolution, the first comprehensive account of the political thought of the American Loyalists, Gregg L. Frazer seeks to close this gap.Because the Loyalists’ position was most clearly expressed by clergymen, God against the Revolution investigates the biblical, philosophical, and legal arguments articulated in Loyalist ministers’ writings, pamphlets, and sermons. The Loyalist ministers Frazer consults were not blind apologists for Great Britain; they criticized British excesses. But they challenged the Patriots claiming rights as Englishmen to be subject to English law. This is one of the many instances identified by Frazer in which the Loyalist arguments mirrored or inverted those of the Patriots, who demanded natural and English rights while denying freedom of religion, expression, and assembly, and due process of law to those with opposing views. Similarly the Loyalist ministers’ biblical arguments against revolution and in favor of subjection to authority resonate oddly with still familiar notions of Bible-invoking patriotism.For a revolution built on demands for liberty, equality, and fairness of representation, God against Revolution raises sobering questions—about whether the Patriots were rational, legitimate representatives of the people, working in the best interests of Americans. A critical amendment to the history of American political thought, the book also serves as a cautionary tale in the heated political atmosphere of our time.

Описание: "Dit boek is een vervolg op Grepen uit de Geschiedenis van de Automatisering dat in 1992en in 1995 is uitgebracht en na te zijn uitverkocht niet meer is verschenen. In 2017 hebik besloten om deze geschiedenis, mede op verzoek van anderen, een vervolg te gevenen wel onder dezelfde titel. Tegelijkertijd zijn in de oorspronkelijke tekst aanpassingenen aanvullingen gedaan, waar dat nodig was. Het Woord vooraf van de oorspronkelijkeuitgave startte met het volgende.De komst van de eerste computers luidde het begin in van de moderne geschiedenisvan de automatisering; een geschiedenis die al weer enige decennia van de twintigsteen eenentwintigste eeuw bestrijkt. Maar daarbij dient wel te worden bedacht dat er ookeen oude geschiedenis van de automatisering is, die teruggaat tot de Middeleeuwen enzelfs ver daarvoor. Omdat de mens altijd getracht heeft het rekenen en het beheer vanverzamelingen te ondersteunen met technische hulpmiddelen, zijn door de eeuwenheen talrijke, vaak heel ingenieuze hulpmiddelen bedacht. De wens steeds nauwkeurigernatuurkundige en boekhoudkundige aspecten te kunnen beschrijven en het menselijkvernuft hebben ertoe geleid dat steeds beter toepasbare methoden en techniekenzijn gerealiseerd. Uitgedrukt in tijd bestrijkt de oude geschiedenis een periode die velemalen langer heeft geduurd dan de periode waarin de moderne computer zich wist teontwikkelen. Die lange periode kenmerkt zich door vele uitermate boeiende ontwikkelingendie in veel gevallen als voorlopers zijn te beschouwen van de denkwijzen entechnische producten van dit moment. Om die reden wordt in dit boek met betrekkingtot het begrip automatisering geen onderscheid gemaakt tussen de periode waarin hetbegrip `automatisering` gemeengoed is geworden en de periode waarin men anderetermen gebruikte bij het ontwikkelen en toepassen van allerhande middelen. Deze benaderingis min of meer te vergelijken met de Engelse aanduiding history of computing dat alles op rekengebied en bijbehorende hulpmiddelen omvat.Over die lange automatiseringsperiode zijn inmiddels vele boeken en artikelen verschenen.Toch blijft veel van het beschrevene min of meer verborgen, zeker in Nederland.Het beperkt zich meestal tot een aantal vaak herhaalde hoofdlijnen waarin steeds weerdezelfde personen en dezelfde apparaten worden genoemd. Kennelijk is het niet zoeenvoudig om tot de omvangrijke buitenlandse literatuur door te dringen om een watbreder beeld te krijgen. Tot de onmogelijkheden behoort dat zeker niet. Wel zal mendan niet zelden met veel technische details worden geconfronteerd die niet altijd evengemakkelijk te begrijpen zijn."
