Sommario/riassunto

When thinking about psalms and prayers in the Second Temple period, the Masoretic Psalter and its reception is often given priority because of modern academic or theological interests. This emphasis tends to skew our understanding of the corpus we call psalms and prayers and often dampens or mutes the lived context within which these texts were composed and used. This volume is comprised of a collection of articles that explore the diverse settings in which psalms and prayers were used and circulated in the late Second Temple period. The book includes essays by experts in the Hebrew bible, the Dead Sea scrolls, Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, and the New Testament, in which a wide variety of topics, approaches, and methods both old and new are utilized to explore the many functions of psalms and prayers in the late Second Temple period. Included in this volume are essays examining how psalms were read as prophecy, as history, as liturgy, and as literature. A variety methodologies are employed, and include the use of cognitive sciences and poetics, linguistic theory, psychology, redaction criticism, and literary theory.

Sommario/riassunto

Die bedeutendsten Architekten seiner Zeit vertrauten Jean Marot ihre Entwürfe an, und er verstand es, selbst ihren flüchtigen Ideen Dauer zu verleihen. Darum ist Jean Marots druckgraphische Dokumentation der französischen Baukunst des 17. Jahrhunderts für die Architekturgeschichte von immensem Wert. Bislang wurde sein Schaffen jedoch weitgehend auf diese dienende Rolle reduziert.Kristina Deutschs Monographie widmet sich nun erstmals der kreativen Seite seines Werks und beleuchtet Marots zuweilen ungemein freien Interpretationen fremder Zeichnungen. Anhand der wichtigsten graphischen Serien – vor allem seiner Radierungen zum Louvre –



arbeitet sie die Parameter heraus, welche die ästhetische Inszenierung eines Bauwerks prägen.

The most important architects of his time entrusted Jean Marot with their designs, and he knew how to give their ethereal ideas lasting tangibility. Which is precisely why Jean Marot’s prints, documenting 17th century French architecture, are of immense value to architectural history. And until today, his work has mainly been reduced to the role of a service rendered. Kristina Deutsch’s monograph is the first attempt to shift focus to the creative side of his work and sheds light on Marot’s sometimes extraordinarily free interpretations of drawings by other artists. Based on his most significant series of prints -and especially his etchings regarding the Louvre - Deutsch makes a detailed presentation of the parameters that characterize the aesthetic presentation of a structure.

Sommario/riassunto

Connects classical cellular descriptive studies with more recent work on the molecular and genetic aspects regarding germline development. Prominent scientists discuss research on a range of organisms including insects, worms, birds, fish, amphibia, mammals and green algae. Specification of germ cells, their migration to the gonads and subsequent interactions with the soma and evolutionary factors of their segregation are among the topics covered.
