This monograph explores the geometry of the local Langlands conjecture. The conjecture predicts a parametrizations of the irreducible representations of a reductive algebraic group over a local field in terms of the complex dual group and the Weil-Deligne group. For p-adic fields, this conjecture has not been proved, but it has been refined to a detailed collection of (conjectural) relationships between p-adic representation theory and geometr...

Denn Eifersucht ist genetisch und kulturell bestimmt und deshalb ein persönliches, ein gesellschaftliches und ein Beziehungsproblem. Die unterschiedlichen Umgangsweisen mit Untr...

The first section focuses on the experiences of conception, pregnancy, and childbirth from the points of view of both mother and child. The second section offers a reversal and reply in which the poems move out into a divided and divisive world. Th...

A debut volume - 13 stories, mostly about off-kilter people haunted by the damaged worm that surrounds them - that's notable for its supple, original style, and especially for dialogue that's convincing and various. Hawkes's characters are never quite sure where the boundary between the concrete and the psychic world is located, and his plots often swing on such disoriented responses. "At the Walls of Jericho, " originally published in The Atl...

John French analyzes the emergence of the Brazilian system of politics and labor relations between 1900 and 1953 in the industrial municipalities of Santo Andre, Sao Bernardo do Campo, and Sao Caetano do Sul. These municipalities, which constitute the so-called ABC region of greater Sao Paolo, were made famous in the late 1970s as a result of a series of strikes by militant autoworkers. French challenges a scholarly consensus that has portraye...

Bedeutende Zeitgenossen wie Heinrich von Kleist und Achim von Arnim waren ihre Bewunder...

Die dreißiger und frühen vierziger Jahre waren für Horkheimer eine Zeit von außerordentlicher Produktivität: In rascher Folge verfaßte er diejenigen Texte, die heute als Kernbestand der Kritischen Theorie gelten. Eine entscheidende Rolle spielte dabei der lebendige intellektuelle Zusammenhang, in den Horkheimer durch die Zeitschrift für Sozialforschung und das in jenen Jahren besonders aktive Institut für Sozialforschung eingebettet war. Die t...

Gleich bei seinem Erscheinen in den 40er Jahren löste Jorge Luis Borges' erster Erzählband »Fiktionen« eine literarische Revolution aus. Erfundene Biographien, fiktive Bücher, irreale Zeitläufe und künstliche Realitäten verflocht Borges zu einem geheimnisvollen Labyrinth, das den Leser mit seinen Rätseln stets auf neue herausfordert. Zugleich begründete er mit seinen berühmten Erzählungen wie »Die Bibliothek zu Babel«, «Die kreisförmigen Ruine...
