This book explores opportunities and limitations with regard to transferring knowledge and tools from the corporate world to manage monasteries or other types of religious institutions. To do so, the contributing authors analyze both the ideological and practical implications of employing modern organizational theory in the context of religious institutions, and seek to strike a balance between preserving traditions and promoting modernization. In this regard, they draw on experience gained in the course of long-standing collaborations between religious institutions, such as monasteries, and business and management schools.

To the seven titles traditionally recognized as Notker's shorter works ("De partibus logicae," "De syllogismis," "De definitione," "De arte rhetorica," "Computus," "De musica," and his letter to the Bishop Hugo of Sitten), the volume adds three texts, all new to the Notkerian canon - the St. Gall tractate ("Incipit quomodo septem circumstantiae rerum in legendo ordinandae sint"), "Distributio omnium specierum nominis inter cathegorias Aristotelis," and "De dialectica." The manuscripts of the texts have been closely followed in this diplomatic edition. Several codices have been identified and incorporated for the first time. A companion volume, "Notker latinus zu den kleineren Schriften," comprising Notker's largely Latin sources, will be published later.

Im Spatmittelalter und der Fruhen Neuzeit wurde mit der Grundung von Universitaten und Schulen ein Ausbildungsverbund geschaffen, der fur die Moderne pragend werden sollte. Rolle, Bedeutung und Verstandnis beider Bildungsanstalten, Zugangsvoraussetzungen und Lehre stellt Notker Hammerstein ebenso dar wie Wirkung und Einfluss von Humanismus, Reformation und "Zweiter Reformation" auf Wissenschaft und Lehre. Trotz des Konfessionalismus erbluhte um 1600 die Wissenschafts- und Universitatswelt. Der Dreissigjahrige Krieg markierte zwar einen Einbruch im Bildungswesen, doch erwuchsen bereits wahrend des Krieges neue wissenschaftliche Positionen, die auf die spatere fruhaufklarerische Wiederbelebung der Universitaten verweisen. Im Forschungsteil diskutiert der Autor die Bildungs- und Wissenschaftsgeschichte und verdeutlicht, dass in den letzten Jahrzehnten die Bildungsbemuhungen der Fruhen Neuzeit viel positiver beurteilt werden als in der Zeit davor. Notker Hammerstein ist emeritierter Professor fur Geschichte der Fruhen Neuzeit an der Universitat Frankfurt"

In den naturwissenschaftlichen Studiengangen erwerben Studenten/innen in den ersten beiden Semestern die Grundlagen fur eine mathematische Behandlung der fachspezifischen Probleme. An diese Studenten wendet sich das Lehrbuch. Es entwickelte sich aus dem Vorlesungsstoff des Autors, der die Vorlesung "Mathematik fur Chemiker" an der TU Munchen seit vielen Jahren anbietet. Es ist das Ziel dieses Lehrbuchs, den Studenten/innen das sichere Beherrschen mathematischer Methoden zu vermitteln und sich zu orientieren. Zahlreiche Beispiele erlautern und erganzen den Stoff, mathematische Beweise sind nur abgeleitet, wenn sie dem besseren Verstandnis dienen. Zahlreiche Ubungen mit unterschiedlichem Schwierigkeitsgrad sollen den Leser zur Auseinandersetzung mit dem Stoff anregen."

Einhard's Life of Charlemagne is an absorbing chronicle of one of the most powerful and dynamic of all medieval rulers, written by a close friend and adviser. In elegant prose it describes Charlemagne's personal life, details his achievements in reviving learning and the arts, recounts his military successes and depicts one of the defining moments in European history: Charlemagne's coronation as emperor in Rome on Christmas Day 800AD. By contrast, Notker's account, written some decades after Charlemagne's death, is a collection of anecdotes rather than a presentation of historical facts.
