Refresh the Book</> contains reflections on the multimodal
nature of the book, focusing on its changing perception, functions,
forms, and potential in the digital age. Offering an overview of
key concepts and approaches, such as liberature, technotexts, and
bookishness, this volume of essays addresses specificity of the
printed book as a complex cultural phenomenon. It discusses diverse
forms of representation and expression, both in literary and
non-literary texts, as well as in artist's books. Of special
interest are these aspects of the book which resist remediation
into the digital form. Finally, the volume contains an extensive
section devoted to artistic practice as research, discussing the
book as a kind of total work, and site for performative aesthetic
activity. Christin Barbarino, Katarzyna Bazarnik, Christoph Blasi,

Der Band befasst sich mit den verschiedenen prozess- und
materiell-rechtlichen Fragestellungen im Zusammenhang mit der
Beendigung von Schiedsvereinbarungen. Ausgehend von einer
grundlegenden Analyse von Rechtsnatur und privatautonomer
Charakteristik der Schiedsvereinbarung arbeitet der Autor die
einzelnen Beendigungsmoeglichkeiten aus. Die Untersuchung gliedert
sich dabei in drei Hauptteile: die gemeinschaftliche (konsensuale
Beendigung) durch die Parteien, einseitige
Beendigungsmoeglichkeiten sowie das Erloeschen der
Schiedsvereinbarung ipso iure.

Another adventure for everyone's favourite Time Lord. Still chafing
at his exile to the planet Earth, the Doctor (Jon Pertwee) is
called in to observe the Inferno drilling experiment of Professor
Stahlman (Olaf Pooley). Stahlman's search for a new form of energy
goes horribly wrong when a green slime emitted from the drill site
transforms any who come into contact with it into primeval
monsters. Meanwhile, after experimenting with the TARDIS console,
the Doctor finds himself transported sideways in time to a parallel
version of the Earth, where the Brigadier (Nicholas Courtney) is an
eyepatch-wearing fascist and Stahlman's experiments threaten to
destroy the world.
Double bill of BBC TV dramas based on the characters from Jane
Austen's classic novel 'Pride and Prejudice'. 'Death Comes to
Pemberley' (2013) is an adaptation of the novel by P.D. James which
continues the story of 'Pride and Prejudice'. Elizabeth (Anna
Maxwell Martin) and Darcy (Matthew Rhys) have been happily married
for a number of years and have two young sons. However, when
Elizabeth's sister Lydia (Jenna-Louise Coleman) brings news of a
murder in Pemberley woods, their life of domestic bliss is thrown
into turmoil. Adapted by screenwriter Andrew Davies, 'Pride and
Prejudice' (1995) revolves around the arrival of the wealthy Mr
Darcy (Colin Firth) and party and the excitement he causes amongst
the five daughters of the Bennett family. Crispin Bonham-Carter,
Anna Chancellor and Susannah Harker also star.
The second series of the 1980s situation comedy starring Peter
Tilbury as a man suffering a particularly severe midlife crisis. To
say Philip Roath (Tilbury) is unsatisfied with his life is an
understatement. Divorced, stuck in a dead-end job, losing his hair,
all Philip really wants to do these days is complain. He moans to
his colleagues so much that his boss (Christopher Benjamin) becomes
convinced that he does almost nothing else at work. Out of hours,
Philip likes to complain as well. Unfortunately, his psychiatrist,
Simon (Nicholas Le Prevost), clearly has even more issues than he
does. The episodes are: 'Aren't Our Policemen Wonderful', 'At First
the Infant', 'Night and Day', 'Listening in', 'Personnel', 'Pros
and Cons' and 'Scenes from Country Life'.

Three digitally remastered Doctor Who episodes from the 1970s, '80s
and '90s. In 'The Talons of Weng-Chiang' (1977), the Doctor (Tom
Baker) and Leela (Louise Jamison) arrive in Victorian London to
find that galactic war criminal Magnus Greel has created giant rats
in the sewers and is sucking the life essence from young girls to
sustain him in his search for his time cabinet. Aided by Professor
Litefoot and music hall proprietor Henry Jago, the Doctor must stop
Greel (masquerading as the Chinese god Weng Chiang) and his
servants Li H'sen Chang and killer doll Mr Sin. 'The Caves of
Androzani' (1984) represents the final outing for the fifth
incarnation of everyone's favourite Time Lord. The Doctor (Peter
Davison) and Peri (Nicola Bryant) become embroiled in an
underground war of gun running and drug smuggling shortly after
landing on the planet Androzani Minor. Apprehended by the military,
they are rescued from execution by the brilliant but horribly
disfigured criminal, Sharaz Jek, whose infatuation with Peri looks
set to be cut short when he discovers that both she and the Doctor
have contracted the deadly disease Spectrox Toxaemia. The only
possible cure is the milk of the queen bat, which dwells in the
caves currently being roamed by the killer Magma Creature... In
'Doctor Who: The Movie' (1996), the Doctor (Sylvester McCoy)
crashlands the TARDIS on Earth in end-of-century San Francisco
while en route to return the Master's remains to their home planet
of Gallifrey. Gunned down by a street gang, the Doctor is rushed to
hospital, where exploratory surgery by Doctor Grace Holloway
(Daphne Ashbrook) triggers a regeneration. The Master has meanwhile
taken over the body of a paramedic and infiltrated the Doctor's
TARDIS, which he plans to use in his latest scheme to take over the
Doctor's new body and destroy the world. Filmed as the pilot for a
revived 'Doctor Who' series - tailored to the American market -
which subsequently failed to materialise, this feature-length
adventure introduces Paul McGann as the renegade Time Lord.
