The cat of Bubastes: a tale of ancient Egypt. By G.A. Henty, full-page: illustrations by J.R. Weguelin, John Reinhard Weguelin RWS (June 23
George Alfred Henty (8 December 1832 - 16 November 1902) was a prolific English novelist and war correspondent.He is best known for his historical adventure stories that were popular in the late 19th century. His works include The Dragon & The Raven (1886), For The Temple (1888), Under Drake's Flag (1883) and In Freedom's Cause (1885).G. A. Henty was born in Trumpington, near Cambridge. He was a sickly child who had to spend long periods in bed. During his frequent illnesses he became an avid reader and developed a wide range of interests which he carried into adulthood. He attended Westminster School, London, and later Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge, where he was a keen sportsman. He left the university early without completing his degree to volunteer for the Army Hospital Commissariat when the Crimean War began. He was sent to the Crimea and while there he witnessed the appalling conditions under which the British soldier had to fight. His letters home were filled with vivid descriptions of what he saw. His father was impressed by his letters and sent them to The Morning Advertiser newspaper which printed them. This initial writing success was a factor in Henty's later decision to accept the offer to become a special correspondent, the early name for journalists now better known as war correspondents.Shortly before resigning from the army as a captain in 1859 he married Elizabeth Finucane. The couple had four children. Elizabeth died in 1865 after a long illness and shortly after her death Henty began writing articles for the Standard newspaper. In 1866 the newspaper sent him as their special correspondent to report on the Austro-Italian War where he met Giuseppe Garibaldi. He went on to cover the 1868 British punitive expedition to Abyssinia, the Franco-Prussian War, the Ashanti War, the Carlist Rebellion in Spain ...

Music in Late Medieval Bruges

Music in Late Medieval Bruges

Reinhard Strohm

Clarendon Press
1990
nidottu
The musical achievements of the so-called `Franco-Flemish School' have attracted many writers, yet Bruges itself has still to be put back on the map of European music history. This book describes how the people of Bruges shaped their acoustic environment and gave musical expression to their spiritual needs. It is based on a scrutiny of musical sources, stylistic trends in music, composers' achievements, and the function of musical genres; all these are seen against a reconstruction, from archival sources, of the socio-economic context of the art of music - an art which, in all its various manifestations, `high' and `low', sacred and secular, courtly and civic, polyphonic and monophonic, mirrors later medieval urban culture as a whole.
Roman Law, Contemporary Law, European Law

Roman Law, Contemporary Law, European Law

Reinhard Zimmermann

Oxford University Press
2001
sidottu
Legal history helps us to understand our modern law. It explains why the law has become what it is. It lays open the premises on which the modern law is based. It constitutes a rich source of experience which is as valuable for the development of modern legal doctrines as for law reform. It may also reveal where a wong turn has been taken and thus prevent us from repeating an error. Today, however, historical legal scholarship has acquired an added significance in view of the Europeanization of private law and private law scholarship. It enables us to see the common ground between our modern national legal sustems and to understand existing differences. It makes us aware of the fact that the law has not developed in national isolation and can, therefore, not properly be understood under purely national auspices. It constitutes the foundation for scholarship in comparative law and paves the way towards re-establishing a European legal culture. The focus of these Clarendon lectures is on the "vital connection that ties the present to the past" (Savigny) and on the link between legal history, modern legal doctrine, and comparative law. They aim to recreate an awareness of a fundamental intellectual unity based on a common tradition. Such awareness is of central importance to sustain the process of a Europeanization of private law which we experience today. Lecture One: The End of an Era: Transformation of Scholarship in Roman Law Lecture Two: The Transition from Civil Law to Civil Code: Dawn of a New Era? Lecture Three: A Change in Perspective: European Private Law and its Historical Foundations
Graph Decompositions

Graph Decompositions

Reinhard Diestel

Clarendon Press
1990
sidottu
Graph Decompositions is the first book on a topic that belongs mainly to infinite graph theory. It offers a complete account of the theory of simplicial decompositions of graphs, from its origins in the 1930s right up to present-day research. In addition to being one of the most important tools in infinite graph theory, simplicial decompositions may be seen as a model for any kind of structural graph decomposition. The currently topical tree-decompositions, for example, have their origin in simplicial decompositions. The text is centred around a few guiding problems and concepts, such as the existence and the uniqueness problem of simplicial decompositions into primes, or the concept of excluded minors as a means of identifying a desired structure.It attempts to give as authentic a picture as possible of research in progress. To this end, it includes discussions of examples, proof strategies on the formation of new concepts, as well as numerous exercises and open problems. Graph Decompositions should prove attractive to any graph theorist or other mathematician interested in a new area of research, as well as to the advanced student looking for a lively and inspiring account of how such research evolves.
Historical and Biblical Israel

Historical and Biblical Israel

Reinhard G. Kratz

Oxford University Press
2015
sidottu
At the center of this book lies a fundamental yet unanswered question: under which historical and sociological conditions and in what manner the Hebrew Bible became an authoritative tradition, that is, holy scripture and the canon of Judaism as well as Christianity. Reinhard G. Kratz answers this very question by distinguishing between historical and biblical Israel. This foundational and, for the arrangement of the book, crucial distinction affirms that the Israel of biblical tradition, i.e. the sacred history (historia sacra) of the Hebrew Bible, cannot simply be equated with the history of Israel and Judah. Thus, Kratz provides a synthesis of both the Israelite and Judahite history and the genesis and development of biblical tradition in two separate chapters, though each area depends directly and inevitably upon the other. These two distinct perspectives on Israel are then confronted and correlated in a third chapter, which constitutes an area intimately connected with the former but generally overlooked apart from specialized inquiries: those places and "archives" that either yielded Jewish documents and manuscripts (Elephantine, Al-Yahudu, Qumran) or are associated conspicuously with the tradition of the Hebrew Bible (Mount Gerizim, Jerusalem, Alexandria). Here, the various epigraphic and literary evidence for the history of Israel and Judah comes to the fore. Such evidence sometimes represents Israel's history; at other times it reflects its traditions; at still others it reflects both simultaneously. The different sources point to different types of Judean or Jewish identity in Persian and Hellenistic times.
The Law of Obligations

The Law of Obligations

Reinhard Zimmermann

Clarendon Press
1996
nidottu
This book is widely regarded as one of the most remarkable achievements in Roman Law and Comparative Law scholarship this century - a fact attested to by the universal acclaim with which it has been received throughout Europe, America, and beyond. As a work of Roman Law scholarship it fuses the vast volume of 20th century scholarship on the Roman law of obligations into a clear and very readable (and in many ways original) account of the law. As a work of comparative law it traces the transformation of the Roman law of obligations over the centuries into what is now modern German, English and South African law, presenting the reader with a contrast between these legal systems which is unique both in its scope and its depth. As a whole the book is written with a deep understanding of human nature and of many social, economic, and other forces that determine the face of the law.
The Anatomy of Corporate Insolvency Law

The Anatomy of Corporate Insolvency Law

Reinhard Bork; Renato Mangano

Oxford University Press
2024
sidottu
The Anatomy of Corporate Insolvency Law dissects corporate insolvency law into its constituent elements, analysing them through a comparative and functional lens. Over the past forty years, corporate insolvency law has become a field of extraordinary practical relevance and increasing intellectual fascination. On the one hand, academics, policymakers, and practitioners have reoriented insolvency law in favour of rescuing distressed companies. On the other hand, this evolution has reshaped foundational categories of the legal culture, blurring (for instance) the traditional distinction between 'contract' and 'proceedings'. The chapters in The Anatomy of Corporate Insolvency Law analyse central topics in this vibrant field and examines where it intersects with labour law and taxation law. The volume traces corporate insolvency law across key global jurisdictions, exploring how various jurisdictions might differently approach the same issues; to what extent two solutions that appear dissimilar really diverge; and vice-versa, to what extent two seemingly similar solutions might actually differ. In doing so, it facilitates cooperation and communication across jurisdictions, and explains how solutions adopted in one jurisdiction might be applicable in another. Suitable for students, scholars, and practitioners, this new work will provide the reader with a solid framework to understand corporate law from a comparative perspective.

European Cross-Border Insolvency Law

European Cross-Border Insolvency Law

Reinhard Bork; Renato Mangano

Oxford University Press
2022
sidottu
The first edition of this textbook was published in 2016, but since then the legal and factual scenario of European cross-border insolvency law has changed dramatically. In particular, three main events have occurred. First of all, the prescriptions of Regulation (EU) 2015/848 (Recast) have become applicable; second, the UK has left the European Union, without this completely reducing the meaning of the regulation for the UK though; and third, the European Union has enacted Directive (EU) 2019/1023 on preventive restructuring and insolvency. Moreover, since 2016, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has delivered significant new judgments, albeit regarding the Regulation (EU) 1346/2000; national courts have started applying the prescriptions of Regulation (EU) 2015/848; scholars have produced numerous papers and commentaries on Regulation (EU) 2015/848; and the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) has issued relevant new documents such as the 2018 'Model Law on Recognition and Enforcement of Insolvency-Related Judgments' and the 2019 'Model Law on Enterprise Group Insolvency'. The second edition of this textbook maintains its original purpose of providing readers with a user-friendly framework so that they may understand the rationale of Regulation (EU) 2015/848 and be consistent in their application of its prescriptions. However, in order to analyse the impact of the new events and discuss the most recent interpretations of judges and scholars, each chapter has been given new bibliographical references, supplemented with further observations, and, in some cases, even reorganised.
Status, States, and Moral Sentiments

Status, States, and Moral Sentiments

Reinhard Wolf

Oxford University Press
2025

Respect can be understood as a considerate attitude that is expressed through the adequate acknowledgement of somebody's current status position. Status, States, and Moral Sentiments provides the first systematic study to investigate whether such regard has a significant effect on interactions between national governments. Does it 'really matter' when chief executives, such as Recep Tayyip Erdo?an, Theresa May, Vladimir Putin, or Donald Trump, complain about a lack of respect for their countries or their governments? Must we pay closer attention to such feelings and expressions because they markedly affect governments' openness, trust or assertiveness? Or can we treat such experiences, sentiments, and rhetoric as marginal, with an ephemeral impact on the 'real business' of interstate relations? Drawing on a wide reading of research in anthropology, international relations, organizational studies, philosophy, sociology, and social psychology, Wolf develops a new theoretical framework and presents three case studies to compare mainstream readings to explanations that stress the role of respect. Findings show that respect has indeed a distinctive political impact; the experience of respect promotes openness, trust, and cooperation, whereas perceived disrespect fosters conflict by making policymakers angrier and more assertive. In each of the cases, policymakers were willing to compromise their country's material interests in order to thwart a relationship that they perceived as disrespectful: asserting one's 'proper' place in the status order proved to be a fundamental goal with an intrinsic ethical value. A thorough grasp of these effects is therefore indispensable for understanding many international interactions, especially when national representatives or populations are deeply concerned about their place in the international status order.
Deep Learning for Computational Imaging

Deep Learning for Computational Imaging

Computational techniques for image reconstruction problems enable imaging technologies including high-resolution microscopy, astronomy and seismology, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Until recently, methods for solving such inverse problems were derived by experts without any learning. Now, the best performing image reconstruction methods are based on deep learning. This textbook gives the first comprehensive introduction to deep learning based image reconstruction methods. This book first introduces important inverse problems in imaging, including denoising and reconstructing an image from few and noisy measurements, and explains what makes those problems hard and interesting. Then, the book briefly discusses traditional optimization and sparsity based reconstruction methods, as well as optimization techniques as a basis for training and deriving deep neural networks for image reconstruction. The main part of the book is about how to solve image reconstruction problems with deep learning techniques: The book first disuses supervised deep learning approaches that map a measurement to an image as well as network architectures for imaging including convolutional neural networks and transformers. Then, reconstruction approaches based on generative models such as variational autoencoders and diffusion models are discussed, and how un-trained neural networks and implicit neural representations enable signal and image reconstruction. The book ends with a discussion on the robustness of deep learning based reconstruction as well as a discussion on the important topic of evaluating models and datasets, which are a critical ingredient of deep learning based imaging.

Diffuse Scattering and Defect Structure Simulations

Diffuse Scattering and Defect Structure Simulations

In recent years it has become apparent that knowing the average atomic structure of materials is insufficient to understand their properties. Diffuse scattering in addition to the Bragg scattering holds the key to learning about defects in materials, the topic of many recent books. What has been missing is a detailed step-by-step guide how to simulate disordered materials. The DISCUS cook book fills this need covering simple topics such as building a computer crystal to complex topic such as domain structures, stacking faults or using advanced refinement techniques to adjust parameters on a disordered model. The book contains a CDROM with all files needed to recreate every example given using the program DISCUS. The reader is free to follow the principles behind simulating disordered materials or to get down into the details and run or modify the given examples.
