The Greek Orthodox Community of Mytilene

The Greek Orthodox Community of Mytilene

Maria Mandamadiotou

Peter Lang AG, Internationaler Verlag der Wissenschaften
2013
nidottu
This book focuses on the modernization of the Greek Orthodox community of Mytilene – the capital of Lesbos, an island located in the north-east Aegean – the changes it underwent, and its responses to the ever-changing political situation between 1876 and 1912. The author argues that the position of leading community members, particularly journalists, and their receptivity towards the social and political changes of the period, went hand-in-hand with their ‘ethnic’ and political aspirations for the role of the Greek Orthodox ethnos in the Empire. In relation to the competition among various ‘imperialisms’ and ‘nationalisms’ then developing around Mytilene’s Christians, the author shows that Ottoman reforms were successful in encouraging them to co-opt local interest such that concern for the growth of the specific community was directly linked to the survival of the Ottoman Empire.

Praktische Malakologie

Praktische Malakologie

Maria Mizzaro-Wimmer; Luitfried Salvini-Plawen

Springer Verlag GmbH
2001
sidottu
Die "Praktische Malakologie" bereitet fünf Klassen der Mollusken (Weichtiere) anhand beispielhafter Vertreter vergleichend-anatomisch auf. Sie setzt sich damit bewusst dem zunehmenden Verlust der Betrachtung von Tieren als Gesamtorganismen mit synorganisiertem Aufbau entgegen und betont die praktische Auseinandersetzung mit der jeweils spezifischen Organisation. Insgesamt stellen die Autoren zwanzig charakteristische Arten der Caudofoveata, Solenogastres, Placophora, Tryblidia und Gastropoda-*Streptoneura* vor. Der Text beschreibt Morphologie, Anatomie, aber auch Biologie und die praktische Materialbearbeitung. Auf 27 Bildtafeln werden die besprochenen Arten von Maria Mizzaro-Wimmer eindrucksvoll illustriert. Die reichliche Beschriftung garantiert das schnelle Auffinden der anatomischen Strukturen. Der Leser kann damit den grundlegenden Aufbau dieser Vertreter kennenlernen, ihre Bezüge sowie Abhängigkeiten innerhalb der Mollusken erarbeiten und im Vergleich auch evolutionäre Zusammenhänge erfassen.

'The Slave Is a Human Person': Fernao Perez's 'de Restitutione' and the Debate on Slavery in Early Modern Portugal

'The Slave Is a Human Person': Fernao Perez's 'de Restitutione' and the Debate on Slavery in Early Modern Portugal

Maria Madalena Brito

Brill U Schoningh
2024
sidottu
With the edition, translation and study of a 16th moral theology treatise, Maria Madalena Brito shows how this discipline was the area par excellence for critical debate on slavery in Portugal at this time. This was substantial in comparison with what occurred in other areas of Portuguese culture. Any questioning of slavery then involved enormous theoretical and practical complexity as there was a conflict between what was ideal at the level of conscience and what was felt at the time as a condition for the economic prosperity of an entire empire. Neither Fernao Perez nor other Professors in Portugal condemned slavery in absolute terms. However, Perez and other theologians approached sensitive subjects, suggesting the limitation of slave trade, denouncing situations of injustice and violence towards the slave, demanding restitution of freedom to slaves who were not so by just title. They stressed the humanity of the slave based on their Christian conscience and on classical principles of natural law.
