Beyond Sinology

Beyond Sinology

Andrea Bachner

Columbia University Press

New communication and information technologies provide distinct challenges and possibilities for the Chinese script, which, unlike alphabetic or other phonetic scripts, relies on multiple signifying principles. In recent decades, this multiplicity has generated a rich corpus of reflection and experimentation in literature, film, visual and performance art, and design and architecture, within both China and different parts of the West. Approaching this history from a variety of alternative theoretical perspectives, Beyond Sinology reflects on the Chinese script to pinpoint the multiple connections between languages, scripts, and medial expressions and cultural and national identities. Through a complex study of intercultural representations, exchanges, and tensions, the text focuses on the concrete "scripting" of identity and alterity, advancing a new understanding of the links between identity and medium and a critique of articulations that rely on single, monolithic, and univocal definitions of writing. Chinese writing-with its history of divergent readings in Chinese and non-Chinese contexts, with its current reinvention in the age of new media and globalization-can teach us how to read and construct mediality and cultural identity in interculturally responsible ways and also how to scrutinize, critique, and yet appreciate and enjoy the powerful multi-medial creativity embodied in writing.

What imaginaries, tropes, and media have shaped how we theorize? The Mark of Theory argues that inscription constitutes one of the master metaphors of contemporary theory. As a trope that draws on a wide array of practices of marking, from tattooing to circumcision, from photographic imprints and phonographic grooves to marks on a page, inscription provides an imaginary that orients and irritates theoretical thought. Tracing inscriptive imaginaries from the late nineteenth century to today, The Mark of Theory offers a wide-ranging conceptual genealogy of contemporary thought. Navigating poststructuralism's attention to figurative language as well as media theory's attention to objects, phenomena, and practices of mediation, the book works through core questions for how we theorize. Across a range of disciplines and scholarly conversations—from literature and media to anthropology, race and gender, art, psychoanalysis, sound, and ultimately ethics—sites of inscription come to constitute the past legacy of a thought to come, a prehistory of our current moment. In focusing on materiality and mediation The Mark of Theory shows how inscriptive practices shape conceptual thought, as well as political and ethical choices. By contextualizing the fraught relationship between materiality and signification, The Mark of Theory lays the ground for a politics of theory that begins there where theory and politics are no longer conflated.

This open access book offers a fully illustrated compendium of glossary terms and basic principles in the field of palynology, making it an indispensable tool for all palynologists. It is a revised and extended edition of "Pollen Terminology. An illustrated handbook," published in 2009. This second edition, titled "Illustrated Pollen Terminology" shares additional insights into new and stunning aspects of palynology. In this context, the general chapters have been critically revised, expanded and restructured. The chapter "Misinterpretations in Palynology" has been extended with new research data and additional ambiguous terms, e.g., polyads vs. massulae; the chapter "Methods in Palynology" has been extensively enhanced with illustrated protocols showing the majority of the methods and techniques used when studying recent and fossil pollen with LM, SEM and TEM. Moreover, additional information about the description and publication of pollen data is provided in the chapter "How to Describe and Illustrate Pollen Grains." Various other parts of the general chapters have now been updated and/or extended with more comprehensive textual passages and new illustrations. The chapter "Illustrated Pollen Terms" now features new and more appropriate examples of each term, including additional LM micrographs. Where necessary, the entries for selected pollen terms have been refined by rewording or adding definitions, illustrations, and new micrographs. Lastly, new terms are included, such as "suprasculpture" and the prefix "nano-" for ornamentation features. The chapter "Illustrated Pollen Terms" is the main part of this book and comprises more than 300 widely used terms illustrated with over 1,000 high-quality images. It provides a detailed survey of the manifold ornamentation and structures of pollen, and offers essential insights into their stunning beauty.

In der Personalbeurteilung und Personalauswahl werden die verfügbaren und wissenschaftlich abgesicherten Verfahren in der Regel ignoriert oder falsch eingesetzt. Dies ist keineswegs den Praktikern anzulasten, die Verantwortung liegt bei der Wissenschaft, die es bislang nicht verstanden hat, ihre Erkenntnisse zu vermitteln. Eine kompetente Personalbeurteilung und -auswahl muss daher bei der Person der Praktiker ansetzen und sie als lernendes System begreifen, das auf der Grundlage eigener Erfahrungen urteilt und auf diese nicht zugunsten eines wissenschaftlich geprüften Verfahrens verzichtet. Anzustreben ist dennoch ein Kriterium wissenschaftlicher Diagnostik, nämlich Objektivität – die Unabhängigkeit des Urteils von der Person des Urteilenden. Vermittelt wird eine Vorgehensweise, die der Realität der Personalbeurteilung Rechnung trägt. Die Praktiker werden dazu angeregt, sich mit der Grundlage und dem Zustandekommen ihrer Urteile auseinanderzusetzen und diese kritisch zu hinterfragen. Ziel ist eine kompetente Bewältigung der diagnostischen Aufgaben, die sich im Rahmen der Personalauswahl und -beurteilung stellen.

Palynology is important in basic as well as in manifold applied sciences, as e.g. biology, medicine, forensics, earth history, climatology and food production. This volume is the first fully illustrated handbook of palynological principles and glossary terms, exclusively using LM and EM micrographs of superior quality. A comprehensive General Chapter on pollen morphology, anatomy, pollen development etc. based on the present knowledge in palynology introduces the reader in the world of pollen. The glossary part comprises more than 300 widely used terms illustrated with over 1.000 high quality light and/or electron microscopic pictures to show the character range of a term. Terms are grouped by feature, e.g. ornamentation, where each term is illustrated on a separate page, definition and original citation included and where necessary, provided with a comprehensive explanatory comment. The term's use in LM, SEM or TEM and its assignment to anatomical, morphological and/or functional pollen features is indicated by icons and colour coding, respectively. This handbook is not only a valuable source for students and researchers but also for all persons interested in pollen and its aesthetic beauty.

Wie unterscheidet man gute von schlechten Entscheidungsregeln? Ist Minimax besser als Maximax? Bernoulli oder Laplace? Die Entscheidung fur die richtige Entscheidungsregel wird in der normativen Entscheidungstheorie ausgeklammert. Erstmals wird die Gute von Entscheidungsregeln bei Ungewissheit systematisch durch Computersimulation uberpruft. Die Trefferquoten der einzelnen Regeln werden unter gleichen Bedingungen verglichen; anhand der Ergebnisse werden neue Regeln vorgeschlagen."
