Recontextualized Knowledge aims to analyze the communicative situations involved in the popularization of scientific knowledge: their settings, audiences, and the adaptive process of recontextualization in science communication. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this publication brings together essays from rhetoric, linguistics, and psychology as well as political and education sciences to serve as an in-depth exploration of today's communicative situations in science communication.

?Goethe is still considered one of the great critics of rhetoric, who in his writing did not follow the tradition of the schools of rhetoric. Nevertheless he dealt with questions of rhetoric repeatedly, and he thoroughly studied the works of the authorities in the field of rhetoric in antiquity and his own time. This monograph investigates traces of rhetoric in the works of Goethe with a particular emphasis on its importance and reception in the "genius period," but also in the classical dramas (Tasso, Iphigenia, Faust) as well as in his later poetry and his autobiography.

On the occasion of his 65th birthday, one of the most prominent German rhetoricians, literary critics and publicists, Gert Ueding, was honoured with a festschrift by the School of Rhetoric at the University of TA1/4bingen. In their contributions, his friends, companions and colleagues reflect the wide range of Gerd Uedinga (TM)s interests, which encompass classical philosophy and rhetoric as much as popular authors such as Karl May and Wilhelm Busch, philosophers such as Aristotle, Bloch and Hegel, together with contemporary modern literature.
