Sommario/riassunto |

The potatohumble, lumpy, bland, familiaris a decidedly unglamorous staple of the dinner table. Or is it? John Readers narrative on the role of the potato in world history suggests we may be underestimating this remarkable tuber. From domestication in Peru 8,000 years ago to its status today as the worlds fourth largest food crop, the potato has played a starringor at least supportingrole in many chapters of human history. In this witty and engaging book, Reader opens our eyes to the power of the potato.Whether embraced as the solution to hunger or wielded as a weapon of exploitation, blamed for famine and death or recognized for spurring progress, the potato has often changed the course of human events. Reader focuses on sixteenth-century South America, where the indigenous potato enabled Spanish conquerors to feed thousands of conscripted native people; eighteenth-century Europe, where the nutrition-packed potato brought about a population explosion; and todays global world, where the potato is an essential food source but also the worlds most chemically-dependent crop. Where potatoes have been adopted as a staple food, social change has |

always followed. It may be just a humble vegetable, John Reader shows, yet the history of the potato has been anything but dull. |

Sommario/riassunto |

In den Gutachten zum ersten umfassenden Reformversuch (1787-1792) über die Bestimmung der bürgerlichen Verhältnisse der Juden in Preußen hatten sich die Offiziere aus den Militärdepartements eindeutig gegen eine Militärpflicht und gegen eine rechtliche Gleichstellung ausgesprochen. Für sie blieb die Assimilation mit den christlichen Untertanen die Vorbedingung für eine rechtliche Emanzipation. Auch in der zweiten Reformphase (1808-1812), den Vorarbeiten zum preußischen Emanzipationsedikt von 1812, votierten die Offiziere nicht für den aktiven Militärdienst der Juden in Preußen. Die Autorin erforscht die möglichen Gründe für diese ablehnenden Voten anhand der Schriften von fünf einflussreichen Offizieren, die sich über ihre Begegnungen mit preußischen und polnischen Juden äußerten: Wichard |
