Sommario/riassunto

Der 13. Band des Internationalen Jahrbuchs für deutschen Idenalismus widmet sich dem Thema ,Begehren'. Von Alix Cohen und Paul Guyer



wird in verschiedener Weise herausgearbeitet, dass Begehren bei Kant einen wichtigen Beitrag zur moralischen Handlung leistet. Federica Basaglia behandelt die Frage, welche Rolle das Begehrungsvermögen für Kants Thesen dazu spielt, was der moralische Status von Tieren ist. Andreas Schmidt und Allen Wood beschäftigen sich in ihren Beiträgen mit Begehren bei Fichte. Christoph Halbig widmet sich der Frage, auf welche Weise Hegel affektive Dimensionen des menschlichen Lebens in seine Philosophie integriert. Ulrich Pothast behandelt das Thema bei Schopenhauer und Judith Norman untersucht den Charakter des Begehrens oder Sehnens (desire) in der deutschen Romantik. Neben diesen Einzelstudien zu Kant, Fichte, Hegel und den Frühromantikern diskutieren Thomas Khurana, Ludwig Siep und Sebastian Gardner verschiedene Philosophen der klassischen deutschen Philosophie vergleichend.

Sommario/riassunto

This timely text integrates disciplines such as materials science, polymer chemistry, plant science, chemical engineering, and nanotechnology to provide comprehensive coverage of the state of the art in bio-based composite materials, as well as their biological feedstocks, basic design principles, properties, industrial applications, environmental friendliness, and life cycles. It presents a strategic and policy-oriented view of bio-based composites, addressing the competing needs for plants as food versus plants as manufacturing feedstocks, while considering the costs of retrofitting existing chemical production plants for bio-based composite manufacture. --

Lavanya Vemsani brings together history, myth, religion, and practice to arrive at a comprehensive understanding of the history of Hindu women, as well as their significance within religious Indian culture. Additionally, Vemsani provides important perspective for understanding the enduring legacy of these women in popular culture and modern society.
