"In the genre of books that seek to explain why we are in the mess we are in, Reign of Terror is a formidable entry. To those who want to portray Trump as wholly exceptional, and discontinuous with the recent past, the book is an essential corrective." -The New Republic

Reformations and their Impact on the Culture of Memoria
Reformations and their Impact on the Culture of Memoria By Truus van Bueren, Paul Cockerham, Caroline Horch, Martine Meuwese, Thomas Schilp
2016 | 426 Pages | ISBN: 2503568548 | PDF | 7 MB
This volume presents cultural studies approaches to different modes of memoria (the original medieval way of commemoration), taking into account specific confessional contexts. It mainly focuses on the consequences of political, religious and social reforms in the period from 1200 to 1800. Scholars from multiple subject areas in the field of cultural studies evaluate if, and to what extent, reform processes and political or social change have influenced different practices of memoria.Since customs of commemoration of the dead (and the living) serve as a means of self-reassurance for a society, they allow significant insights into what the respective societies were grounded upon. This volume delivers the first discipline-specific and methodologically diverse approach to the consequences of different reforms on memoria.In this way this overview creates a 'history of memoria' throughout the centuries.In der vorliegenden Publikation werden unterschiedliche Ausprägungen der memoria, des ursprünglich mittelalterlichen Gedenkwesens, kulturwissenschaftlich und konfessionsspezifisch dargestellt. Dabei stehen die Folgen politischer, religiöser und sozialer Reformen im Zeitraum von 1200 bis 1800 im Fokus. Forscher aus verschiedenen Fächern und mehrerer Länder haben sich mit unterschiedlichen Aspekten memorialen Handelns beschäftigt und untersucht, inwiefern Veränderungen und Neuordnungen die Praxis der memoria beeinflusst haben.Im Umgang mit den Toten vergewissert sich eine Gesellschaft ihrer selbst. So vermag das Gedenken an Lebende und Verstorbene bedeutsame Aufschlüsse geben.Den Auswirkungen unterschiedlicher Reformen, insbesondere der Reformation, auf die memoria wird hier zum ersten Mal methodisch wie fachspezifisch nachgegangen.Aus diesem Überblick entsteht auch eine „Geschichte der memoria" durch mehrere Jahrhunderte.

Programming the Network with Perl
English | 2021 | ASIN : B09C7WFD5C | 601 pages | PDF, AZW3, EPUB, MOBI | 44.2 MB
This book supports the study of computer networking through the medium of Perl programming. Following an introduction to Perl (in Chapter 1, Meet Perl), the focus is on debugging. Programmers know how to debug programs. When it comes to the network, they need to know how to debug communications. In Chapter 2, Snooping, some simple Perl programs are built to capture and analyse the traffic network applications generate. In the absence of any custom network applications, these simple programs are used to analyse the traffic generated by some standard network technologies.

Principles of German Criminal Procedure
Principles of German Criminal Procedure By Michael Bohlander
2012 | 326 Pages | ISBN: 184946216X | EPUB + PDF | 3 MB
The book aims to outlinie the fundamental aspects of the German approach to criminal procedure; it is meant as a companion volume to the author's earlier publications, 'The German Criminal Code - A Modern English Translation', and 'Principles of German Criminal Law', also with Hart. In appropriate cases, comparisons to English and Welsh law have been drawn. The chapters cover a wide range of issues from setting out the basic procedural principles to presenting the main players in the criminal justice system, pre-trial investigations, the path from indictment to trial judgment, rules of evidence, sentencing, and appeals and post-conviction review. As far as it is useful for an introductory text, the differences between proceedings against adults and juveniles are highlighted. The theoretical discussion of decision-making and style of judgment writing is supported by practical insights through specimen translations of an indictment, a trial judgment and an appellate judgment by the Federal Court of Justice.
