The award-winning book is now revised and expanded. In 2001 an international panel of distinguished climate scientists announced that the world was warming at a rate without precedent during at least the last two millennia, and that warming was caused by the buildup of greenhouse gases from human activity. The story of how scientists reached that conclusion-by way of unexpected twists and turns-was the story Spencer Weart told in The Discovery of Global Warming. Now he brings his award-winning account up to date, revised throughout to reflect the latest science and with a new conclusion that shows how the scientific consensus caught fire among the general world public, and how a new understanding of the human meaning of climate change spurred individuals and governments to action. "Charting the evolution and confirmation of the theory [of global warming], Weart dissects the interwoven threads of research and reveals the political and societal subtexts that colored scientists' views and the public reception their work ­received." -Andrew C.

Fazit -- BackmatterDer größte Teil bislang vorgenommener Untersuchungen zum Maskulinum víkingr und Femininum víking widmete sich etymologischen und semantischen Fragestellungen. Mit ihrer Überlieferung und Verwendung in den mittelalterlichen skandinavischen Prosatexten jedoch hat sich die Forschung bislang nur bedingt befasst. Mit diesem Buch liegt ein erster umfassender Beitrag zu ihrer Rezeption in der mittelalterlichen altnordischen Literatur vor. Im Fokus steht hierbei die Analyse der innerhalb der Gattung der Konungasögur zu verzeichnenden Belege. Darüber hinaus wurden aber auch die wikingerzeitlichen Quellen, Runeninschriften und skaldische Dichtung, in die Untersuchung miteinbezogen. So konnten auch Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede im mittelalterlichen und wikingerzeitlichen Gebrauch des Maskulinums sowie des Femininums herausgestellt werden.Erganzungsbande zum Reallexikon der germanischen Altertumskunde ;Bd. 56.Víking (The Old Norse word)Old Norse literatureHistory and criticismOld Norse languageEtymologyVíking (The Old Norse word)Old Norse literatureHistory and criticism.Old Norse languageEtymology.839.6NC 1600rvkKruger Jana1222847MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910399560503321"Wikinger" im Mittelalter2836800UNINA
