• Sommario/riassunto: The study of legal ethics and the legal profession has emerged as a distinct and important field of scholarship over the last 30 years. However, as in other disciplines, academic recognition can in turn entrench static and powerful meta-theories and narratives about professional ethos and practise, this collection seeks to disrupt this homogenising impulse and to present alternative voices by bringing together a range of international scholars writing about legal ethics and the legal profession. The book features significant and timely contributions which take contemporary and non-ma

• Sommario/riassunto: Fremdwörter sind im deutschsprachigen Raum seit mehreren hundert Jahren Gegenstand sprachwissenschaftlicher und öffentlicher Diskussion. Die Trennung des ""Fremden"" vom ""Eigenen"" fand als Charakteristikum der deutschen Wörterbuchlandschaft ihren Niederschlag in der Gattung des Fremdwörterbuchs. Auch wenn heute Wörter fremden Ursprungs als integraler Bestandteil des deutschen Wortschatzes gelten, verdienen sie, gerade aus der Sicht der historischen Lexikologie und Lexikographie, eine gesonderte Betrachtung. Die historische Wortforschung fragt u.a. danach, wann und wo ein fremdes Wort zuerst

• Sommario/riassunto: In the mid-seventeenth century, Wilno (Vilnius), the second capital of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, was home to Poles, Lithuanians, Germans, Ruthenians, Jews, and Tatars, who worshiped in Catholic, Uniate, Orthodox, Calvinist, and Lutheran churches, one synagogue, and one mosque. Visitors regularly commented on the relatively peaceful coexistence of this bewildering array of peoples, languages, and faiths. In Kith, Kin, and Neighbors, David Frick shows how Wilno's inhabitants navigated and negotiated these differences in their public and private lives.This remarkable book opens with a walk through the streets of Wilno, offering a look over the royal quartermaster's shoulder as he made his survey of the city's intramural houses in preparation for King Wladyslaw IV's visit in 1636. These surveys (Lustrations) provide concise descriptions of each house within the city walls that, in concert with court and church records, enable Frick to accurately discern Wilno's neighborhoods and human networks, ascertain the extent to which such networks were bounded confessionally and culturally, determine when citizens crossed these boundaries, and conclude which kinds of cross-confessional constellations were more likely than others. These maps provide the backdrops against which the dramas of Wilno lives played out: birth, baptism, education, marriage, separation or divorce, guild membership, poor relief, and death and funeral practices. Perhaps the most complete reconstruction ever written of life in an early modern European city, Kith, Kin, and Neighbors sets a new standard for urban history and for work on the religious and communal life of Eastern Europe.
