Translation, Transformation and Transubstantiation in the Late Middle Ages

Marion Baldus

Sexueller Missbrauch und sexualisierte Handlungen in pädagogischen Kontexten sind nicht einfach als Perversionen Einzelner abzutun. Vielmehr ergeben sie sich aus einer Konstellation struktureller und personaler Faktoren, die mit jeder pädagogischen und sozialpädagogischen Tätigkeit verbunden sind und zueinander in einem Spannungsverhältnis stehen. So müssen die sozial-/pädagogischen Akteure als professionelle Praktiker in der direkten Interaktion von Erziehung und Bildung stets Nähe herstellen und gleichzeitig Distanz halten. Das Buch beleuchtet aus verschiedenen disziplinären Perspektiven, durch welche personalen und kontextuellen Faktoren die Balance gestört wird, in eine Sexualisierung der Beziehung umschlägt und sich entlang des Machtgefälles zwischen Professionellen und ihren Adressaten zu einem Missbrauch vereinseitigt. Konkrete Maßnahmen und Handlungsempfehlungen weisen Lösungsperspektiven zur Prävention sexuellen Missbrauchs auf.

Makers of the Middle Ages: Essays in Honor of William Calin

This is the first volume in a series of studies on the late Middle Ages, covering the period from around 1300 to 1550. Each volume aims to provide exhaustive and diverse treatments of one significant example of late medieval culture. Volume one explores the late medieval epistle.

The Late Medieval Epistle

Georgiana Donavin

These studies illustrate the various high and late medieval transformations of formal and formalized argument, from a broadly interdisciplinary perspective. They challenge today's dominant disciplinary approaches to what was and is still a pervasive mode of thought in the West. Many current treatments of medieval disputational texts have a narrow focus either on the history of scholasticism, rhetoric, and pedagogy, or the genesis and function of such period-specific forms of academic altercation as demonstrative, dialectic, or sophistic disputation, or the later quaestiones, quodlibeta, and sophismata. Moreover, scholarship in literature often ignores the parallel structures of academic argument and narrowly focuses on the narrative and aesthetic functions of debate poem.

Disputation and Debate

Disputatio 5: Medieval Forms of Argument: Disputation and Debate

This book is called a manifesto because it has an unapologetically political objective. Richard Utz wants to help reform the way we think about and practise our academic engagement with medieval culture, and he uses his own observations as a medievalist and medievalism-ist over the last 25 years to offer ways in which we might reconnect with the general public that has allowed us to become, since the late nineteenth century, a rather exclusive clan of specialists who communicate mostly with each other.
