Paperback. Condition: New. Die zeitliche Dimension von Kulturgeschichte wurde lange Zeit durch die Schilderungen der Bibel, ergänzt um die Darstellung klassischer Autoren bestimmt. Mit dem frühneuzeitlichen Aufkommen der Naturwissenschaften bildete sich allmählich ein alternatives Paradigma heraus, das religiöse Gewissheiten in Frage stellte und geistige und geistliche Autoritäten herausforderte. Im Rahmen dieser weltanschaulichen Auseinandersetzung erhofften sich beide Seiten Unterstützung durch die Erkenntnisse der sich zum Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts ausbildenden Altertumswissenschaften. Ihre Vertreter waren sowohl durch die Verfahren des kritischen Quellenstudiums geprägt wie auch durch die Anwendung naturwissenschaftlicher Untersuchungsmethoden. Dabei verlief die Entwicklung von einer "biblischen Chronologie" hin zu naturwissenschaftlich und durch historische Belege gesicherten Geschichtsschreibung keineswegs linear und einseitig. Gerade aufgrund der doppelten Prägung früher Altertumswissenschaftler durch religiöse Weltbilder und die Schulung in (natur-)wissenschaftlichem Denken, entstanden immer neue Vorstellungen und Konzepte über das Alter menschlicher Kultur. Der Band setzt sich in mehreren wissenschaftshistorischen Fallstudien mit diesen Entwicklungen auseinander.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. With the rapidly increasing economic importance of the bourgeoisie beginning ca 1870, Europe and America witnessed the creation of private associations, funds, and societies to finance archaeological expeditions in the 'Lands of the Bible', complementing state-run institutions such as universities, museums, and academies of sciences and the humanities. From the very first, research into the history of the ancient Near East served to reflect 'Western' self-perception and provided the foundation for the projection of Weltanschauung. Against the background of increasing professionalization of archaeological disciplines, learned societies also enabled laypersons, amateurs, and dilettantes to participate in scholarly debate and to promulgate certain conceptual frames of what was perceived as the 'Ancient Orient'. Behind the movement lay different motivations but also respective 'national' cultures in academia. In fact, while economic and strategic interests during this 'Age of Empire' played a pivotal role, the historian should not be blind to other factors. Given the central importance of the ancient Near East as the 'cradle' of no less than three world religions, as well as the earliest states, even empires, in world history, it became a matter of prestige for European and other 'Western' nations to fill their museums with objects from that distant past era - objects which were related to the origins of their 'own' culture, as they perceived it. Furthermore, the exotic appeal of 'the Orient' must not be forgotten, for it served as means of self-affirmation in contrast to the Oriental 'other', legitimizing the colonial exploitation and semantics of a 'white man's burden' or a civilizing 'mission', but also defining a cultural responsibility. After the many political upheavals resulting from World War I, new forms of associations evolved to compensate for the loss of state-funding but also to remedy the loss of previously firmly established world views. A systematic and transnational study of these associations remains a desideratum. This volume, with contributions by historians and archaeologists, along with representatives of other disciplines from different countries, provides the basis for a truly interdisciplinary discourse, focusing on Oriental Societies as a means of societal self-assertion.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. The volume is dedicated to the 'supporting characters' in the history of Egyptology who are not often in the limelight. This is not intended to work to the detriment of the lead actors, nor is the intention to politicize disciplinary history. Rather, it is meant as an appreciation and recognition of the range of agents involved, and relationships within their networks. Rendering disciplinary history more inclusive is a long process. The case-studies assembled in this volume do not aspire to represent the complete range of possible stakeholders. Instead, it is intended to open-out the discourse, and to demonstrate various modes in which individuals have advanced research into ancient Egypt. To cite but two 'marginalized' groups, women have often been presented as subservient spirits, assisting their Egyptologist-husbands, with perhaps the concession that 'behind every great man there has to be a great woman'. For a long time all-but-excluded from academia, such individuals' contributions have been disregarded. Second, exclusion from academia was also the fate of most early Egyptian Egyptologists. Within the frame of post-colonial studies, they have only recently garnered serious attention. Yet, even then, the paradigm of 'Western' disciplinary history has been replicated, concentrating on the outstanding figures and lead players in the field, often to the detriment of lesser-known scholars, officials, and local actors such as the Quftis and workmen. This volume is thus not meant to criticise previous endeavours in the recent development of disciplinary history but, rather, as a constructive contribution or complement to these. We cannot make amends for past implicit slights, or restore a person's role in the history of Egyptology to its 'rightful place', but the aim is to broaden the perspective of the history of Egyptology, while at the same time paying more attention to its diversity.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Schon Goethes Faust wusste, dass das, was »ihr den Geist der Zeiten heißt« vielmehr »der Herren eigene[n] Geist« darstellt. Nach linguistic turn und Diskursanalyse sind sich auch Historiker zeitgeistiger Einflüsse auf die Geschichtsschreibung bewusst geworden.Im Kontext der Wissenschaftsgeschichte altorientalistischer Forschung lässt sich eine Tendenz erkennen, zeitgeistige Einflüsse grundsätzlich einzugestehen, wobei dies aber nicht unbedingt zur (Neu-)Bewertung älterer Publikationen, sondern allenfalls zu deren 'Aussortierung' führt. Zeitgeist erscheint dabei als diffuser Begriff, mit dem vieles 'entschuldigt', aber wenig wirklich erklärt wird.Hinzu tritt das Phänomen der Instrumentalisierung von Vergangenheit zur Erklärung der eigenen gesellschaftspolitischen Gegenwart. Der Band will diesem historiographischen 'Framing' nachgehen und Darstellungen zur altägyptischen »Arbeiterbewegung«, dem »Königtum in Mesopotamien«, »Totaler Religion« in Amarna oder einer »sumerischen Renaissance« u.a. analysieren. Die Auseinandersetzung hiermit relativiert nicht den Wert altertumswissenschaftlicher Forschung, sondern leistet einen Beitrag zu dessen Aufrechterhaltung. 222 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Morris Jastrow jr. wurde am 13. August 1861 im damals russischen Warschau als Sohn des preußischen Rabbiners Marcus Jastrow geboren, der für sein Wörterbuch 'A Dictionary of the Targumim' von 1903 sehr bekannt ist. Dessen Sympathien für die polnische Unabhängigkeit führten zur Ausweisung der Familie nach Deutschland, von wo sie 1866 nach Philadelphia auswanderte. Morris setzte seine in den USA begonnenen Studien in Breslau (Jüdisch-Theologisches Seminar) sowie in Leipzig, Straßburg und Paris fort. Nach der Promotion 1884 in Leipzig kehrte er nach Philadelphia zurück, wo er Dozent für 'Semitic Studies' wurde. Ab 1888 wirkte er an der Universitätsbibliothek sowie in zahllosen gelehrten Gesellschaften. Er publizierte auch zu gesellschaftspolitischen Themen: dem Babel-Bibel-Streit, zur Bagdadbahn oder zum Zionismus.Sein plötzlicher Tod am 22. Juni 1921 beendete seine überaus produktive und weit vernetzte Tätigkeit abrupt.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Nathaniel Julius Reich (1876-1943) entstammte einer Familie von Rabbinern. Sein Vater, Wilhelm (1852-1929), war Zionist und publizierte über jüdisches Leben im Nahen Osten. Der Sohn lernte frühzeitig orientalische Sprachen. Die traditionelle Erziehung sollte durch ein Hochschulstudium an den Universitäten Wien und Berlin vervollkommnet werden. Dabei entwickelte Reich die Vision einer 'Geschichte des Judentums im Alten Orient, Nordafrika, Griechenland und Rom' - ein Vorhaben, welches er jedoch nie realisieren sollte. Mit wachsender Ungeduld verfolgte der Vater die immer wieder verlängerten Studien, jetzt auch in Straßburg und Oxford. Bald stellte er die finanzielle Unterstützung des Sohnes ein. Dessen Konflikte mit seinen deutschen Kollegen und der Verlust seiner Dozentur an der Universität Prag, nach Ende des Ersten Weltkrieges, schienen seine Laufbahn zu beenden. Durch die Übersiedlung in die USA schaffte Reich einen Neuanfang am Dropsie College in Philadelphia. Er bemühte sich um die Erstellung eines demotischen Wörterbuches und gab die Fachzeitschrift 'Mizraim' heraus.
