Der vorliegende Band widmet sich der Untersuchung des Briefverkehrs zwischen Eltern und ihren Kindern, wie er uns auf Papyrus und Ostraka aus dem 1. bis 3. Jh. n.Chr. erhalten ist. Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Studie steht die Ausdrucksweise der Emotionen, die charakteristisch für diese Korrespondenz ist. Dabei wird gezeigt, wie Solidarität und Konflikte zwischen Generationen in diesen Briefen zum Ausdruck kommen. Zugleich werden soziokulturelle Aspekte des römischen Ägyptens, welche im Hintergrund der Eltern-Kind-Beziehung stehen, berücksichtigt. In einigen Fällen werden neue Ergänzungsvorschläge sowie Neulesungen und damit innovative Interpretationen der oft nur fragmentarisch erhaltenen Briefe vorgelegt.

The Gothic and Twenty-First-Century American Popular Culture examines the gothic mode deployed in a variety of texts that touch upon inherently US American themes, demonstrating its versatility and ubiquity across genres and popular media. The volume is divided into four main thematic sections, spanning representations related to ethnic minorities, bodily monstrosity, environmental anxieties, and haunted technology. The chapters explore both overtly gothic texts and pop culture artifacts that, despite not being widely considered strictly so, rely on gothic strategies and narrative devices.
Towards the History of the Working Class Movement in Delhi
Author:
The descent of working class movements that began with neoliberal globalization is nearing completion. However, the ascent is yet to begin. This period is witnessing novel forms of organization and resistance. For students, activists and academics, it is imperative to understand changes in the modus operandi of capital since the 1970s to explain the crisis of conventional trade unionism, as well as the spontaneous outbursts of creativity in movements of informal workers in recent times. Delhi has been a centre of such innovative experiments. In the Valley of Historical Time attempts to understand these new forms and strategies and possibilities of resurgence of working class movements.
