The Wadden Sea Region is comprised of the embanked coastal marshes and islands in the Wadden Sea near Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands. This area retains an exceptional common history in all its aspects: archaeologically, economically, socially, and culturally. Its settlement history of more than two thousand years is unrivalled and still mirrored in the landscape. Even though it has never constituted a political unity, it still shares a landscape and cultural heritage. For example, the approaches to water management and associated societal organization developed in the region during the last millennium have set significant world standards. This book offers an overview of current research on history, landscape and cultural heritage of the Wadden Sea region.
Der Band versammelt in sich die Beitrage einer interdisziplinar angelegten, von der Christian-Albrechts-Universitat zu Kiel/Abteilung fur Regionalgeschichte mit Schwerpunkt Schleswig-Holstein, der Universitat Hamburg/Institut fur Volkskunde/Kulturanthropologie und der Stadt Ahrensburg veranstalteten Gemeinschaftstagung. Die einzelnen Beitrage beleuchten aus politik-, sozial-, wirtschafts-, umwelt-, kultur- und mentalitatsgeschichtlicher Perspektive die Region Stormarn zwischen den Hansestadten Hamburg und Lubeck, die uber Jahrhunderte im Spannungsfeld unterschiedlicher Herrschaftsanspruche und Einflussspharen lag.
Augustinus' "Bekenntnisse" erschlossen der Antike einen fremden seelischen Bezirk: das Reich der Innerlichkeit. Nie zuvor hatte ein Mensch seinen Lebensweg so eindringlich als ein Taumeln zwischen Himmel und Erde, dem heissen Sehnen nach wahrem Gluck und den verwirrenden Leidenschaften geschildert. Ohne das Vorbild der "Confessiones" waren weder Luthers Glaubenslehre noch die autobiographischen Werke Rousseaus und Goethes vorstellbar. Ubersetzt von Wilhelm Timme."
This volume, dedicated to Hans-Jurgen Goertz (Hamburg University) on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday, brings together fourteen historical and theological essays dealing with the theme of outsiders, non-conformists, and social and religious movements in the German-speaking world between the Late Middle Ages and the Early Modern era. Taking the concept of 'border' as its departure point, the volume offers a kaleidoscope of theoretical and historical analysis, including such topics as the Anabaptist rule in Munster, a civil revolt against the Jews in Worms, and the limits of tolerance in the thinking of Martin Luther. The essays are preceded by an interview with Hans-Jurgen Goertz. Publications by Hans-Jurgen Goertz: * Innere und aussere Ordnung in der Theologie Thomas Muntzers, ISBN: 978 90 04 02180 8 (Out of print)
