News of a merger or acquisition is a big event in the life of a company, which stirs uncertainty, anxiety and fear. The changes, redundancies and so on, that often follow this news, are a further source of turmoil for the employees of both companies involved. There is no magic formula to avoid these effects completely. However, good planning, communication and human resource practice can mitigate the worst of them; keep everyone that matters on board; and ensure that the new organization maintains your reputation for sensitive people management. Get it wrong, on the other hand, and you may lose the very people you were most anxious to keep; put the success of the process at risk and even face employment tribunals or other legal proceedings. In addition, imagine how these processes are complicated by any transnational elements. James F. Klein and Robert-Charles Kahn provide a practical, hands-on guide to successfully integrating HR functions following any merger or acquisition within Europe. The book guides you step by step, providing the methodology, tools, sequence of events and necessary material. It includes comparative tables, tips and stories illustrating the differences, specific issues and pitfalls that are particular to the different European countries. 20 years of human resources experience across companies in continental Europe has gone into creating this blueprint to successfully implementing the people side of successful mergers and acquisitions.

A groundbreaking synthesis of food studies, archival theory, and early American literature There is no eating in the archive. This is not only a practical admonition to any would-be researcher but also a methodological challenge, in that there is no eating-or, at least, no food-preserved among the printed records of the early United States. Synthesizing a range of textual artifacts with accounts (both real and imagined) of foods harvested, dishes prepared, and meals consumed, An Archive of Taste reveals how a focus on eating allows us to rethink the nature and significance of aesthetics in early America, as well as of its archive. Lauren F. Klein considers eating and early American aesthetics together, reframing the philosophical work of food and its meaning for the people who prepare, serve, and consume it. She tells the story of how eating emerged as an aesthetic activity over the course of the eighteenth century and how it subsequently transformed into a means of expressing both allegiance and resistance to the dominant Enlightenment worldview. Klein offers richly layered accounts of the enslaved men and women who cooked the meals of the nation's founders and, in doing so, directly affected the development of our national culture-from Thomas Jefferson's emancipation agreement with his enslaved chef to Malinda Russell's Domestic Cookbook, the first African American-authored culinary text. The first book to examine the gustatory origins of aesthetic taste in early American literature, An Archive of Taste shows how thinking about eating can help to tell new stories about the range of people who worked to establish a cultural foundation for the United States.

A cutting-edge view of the digital humanities at a time of global pandemic, catastrophe, and uncertainty Where do the digital humanities stand in 2023? Debates in the Digital Humanities 2023 presents a state-of-the-field vision of digital humanities amid rising social, political, economic, and environmental crises; a global pandemic; and the deepening of austerity regimes in U.S. higher education. Providing a look not just at where DH stands but also where it is going, this fourth volume in the Debates in the Digital Humanities series features both established scholars and emerging voices pushing the field’s boundaries, asking thorny questions, and providing space for practitioners to bring to the fore their research and their hopes for future directions in the field. Carrying forward the themes of political and social engagement present in the series throughout, it includes crucial contributions to the field—from a vital forum centered on the voices of Black women scholars, manifestos from feminist and Latinx perspectives on data and DH, and a consideration of Indigenous data and artificial intelligence, to essays that range across topics such as the relation of DH to critical race theory, capital, and accessibility.

von RIEMANNS Habilitationsvortrag (aus den 1876 bei Teubner erschienenen "Gesam- melten Mathematischen Werken" [11]), so daB wir hier darauf verzichten konnen. Uber die philosophischen Betrachtungen, die im Zusammenhang mit der Entwick- lung der Theorie der Parallelen und der nicht-euklidischen Geometrie angestellt wor- den sind, ist so viel geschrieben worden (schon GAUSS hat Bemerkungen dazu ge- macht; siehe etwa [35, S. 27/28; vgl. S. 33/34 dieses Bandes]), daB es unmoglich ist, im Rahmen dieses Buches darauf einzugehen. Zwei der Hauptfragen, nlimlich wie weit die euklidische oder die nicht-euklidische Geometrie unsere rliumliche Situation er- fassen konnen und wie es mit der inneren Widerspruchsfreiheit der nicht-euklidischen Geometrie steht, sind im Laufe meines Textes [35] immer wieder behandelt worden, so daB diese Betrachtungen hier nicht erweitert werden. Die Vorgehensweisen von GAUSS, BOLYAI und LoBATSCHEWSKI einerseits und KLEIN andererseits waren einander entgegengesetzt. Die ersteren gingen rein hypothetisch vor: Sie untersuchten die Frage, wie eine Geometrie aussehen miisse, in der das Paral- lelenaxiom nicht gelte, setzten also voraus, daB es eine solche Geometrie gibt, und muBten damit rechnen, daB bei nOlh weitergehenden Untersuchungen Widerspruche auftauchen wiirden. Sie zeigten also: Es gibt im wesentlichen hiichstens eine solche Geometrie. KLEIN dagegen gab ein konkretes Beispiel fUr eine solche Geometrie an, indem er die auf der projektiven MaBbestimmung beruhende Cayleysche Geometrie als Modell fUr eine nicht-euklidische Geometrie erkannte. Da dieses Modell auf der projektiven Geometrie beruhte, die man als widerspruchsfrei ansieht, hatte er damit ein Modell fUr die nicht-euklidische Geometrie angegeben.

Kaum jemals wird tin Werk eines Historikers einen so starken Reiz tiben und so tiefe Einblicke in das Wesen der Geschichte offnen wie Gedanken und Erinnerungen eines groBen Staatsmannes, welcher selbst ein langes Leben hindurch an fUhrender Stelle in die Geschicke der Welt eingegriffen hat und eine tiberlegene geistige Per- sonlichkeit mit der Kraft ktinstlerischer schriftstellerischer Gestaltung verbindet. Solchc Werke, schon fUr die politische Geschichte eine kostbare Seltenheit, sind fiir die Geschichte der exakten Wissenschaften bis- her wohl kaum geschrieben worden. Urn so notwendiger erschien es, als Felix Klein vor Jahresfrist starb, mit der Herausgabe seiner Vor- lesungen zur Geschichte der Mathematik und mathematischen Physik des 19. Jahrhunderts nicht zu zogern. Diese Vorlesungen sind die reife Frucht eines reichen Lebens in- mitten der wissenschaftlichen Ereignisse, der Ausdruck tiberlegener Weisheit und tiefen historischen Sinnes, einer hohen menschlichen Kultur und einer meisterhaften Gestaltungskraft; sie werden sicherlich auf aIle Mathematiker und Physiker und weit tiber diesen Kreis hin- aus eine groBe Wirkung austiben. In einer Zeit, wo der Blick der Menschen auch in der Wissenschaft allzusehr am Gegenwartigen hangt und das Einzelne in unnatiirlicher VergroBerung und iiber- triebener Bedeutung gegentiber dem Ganzen zu betrachten pflegt, kann das Kleinsche Werk vielen die Augen wieder offnen fUr die Zusammenhange und Entwicklungslinien unserer Wissenschaft im GroBen.

An erster Stelle bringt dieses Doppelheft der Mater i a I i e n einen Abschnitt aus dem in Vorbereitung befindlichen Aufsatze von A. Ga 11 e uber die geodatischen Arbeiten von Gauss; da es sich um einen Gegenstand handelt, der uber die Geodasie hinaus greift und ein selbstandiges Interesse besitzt, schien es angebracht, diesen Abschnitt .dem eigentlichen Aufsatze vorauszuschicken. Das Zahlenrechnen greift in die ganze Tatigkeit von Gauss in der reinen wie in der angewandten Mathematik ein, und darum war dem Verfasser die gutige Unterstutzung der Mitarbeiter an der Herausgabe der Werke von Gauss, sowie einiger anderer Gelehrten sehr willkommen; er mochte auch an dieser Stelle M. Brendel, F. Klein, L. Kruger, A. Loewy, P. Maennchen, L. Schlesinger, P. Stackel und G. Witt fur verschiedene Bemerkungen und Hin weise seinen verbindlichen Dank zum Ausdruck bringen. An zweiter Stelle erscheint der Aufsatz von P. Stackel uber Gauss als Geometer, der sich den Aufsatzen von Bach mann uber die zahlentheoretischen und von Schlesinger uber die funktionentheoretischen Arbeiten von Gauss anreiht. Der Ver fasser ist F. Klein und L. Schlesinger fur das grosse Interesse verpflichtet, dass sie seiner Arbeit wahrend ihrer Entstehung ent gegenbrachten, nicht minder auch fur eine Reihe wertvoller Be merkungen, die sie wahrend der Korrektur beigesteuert haben. An der Korrektur beteiligten sich ferner F. Engel, A. Galle und A."
