BT - Daniel Kehlmanns neu erfundener Alexander von Humboldt N2 - Daniel Kehlmann gibt vor, mit seinem Roman Die Vermessung der Welt „verschwiegene oder übersehene Wahrheiten sichtbar“ zu machen. Dadurch, dass er die Leser bewusst im Zweifel lässt, was historisch belegt und was erfunden ist, entstehen Missverständnisse. Der Beitrag analysiert die wichtigsten Charakteristika des Kehlmann‘schen und des historischen Alexander von Humboldt und weist nach, dass diese nicht übereinstimmen. Der Aufsatz fragt nach Kehlmanns Rolle, der in der Öffentlichkeit gerne die Pose des Gelehrten einnimmt, seine Erfindungen jedoch nicht offenlegt und sie als angebliches Humboldt-Zitat sogar in einem wissenschaftlichen Text publiziert. Der Beitrag kommt zu dem Schluss, dass alle, die etwas für ihre Allgemeinbildung tun möchten, bei Die Vermessung der Welt an der falschen Adresse sind. N2 - With his novel Measuring the World, Daniel Kehlmann pretends „to make visible a reticent and ignored truth“. In leaving the reader intentionally in doubt about what is historically proven and what is invented, Kehlmann’s book prompts misreadings. The article compares the main traits of the „Kehlmannian“ against those of the historical Alexander von Humboldt and documents their mis-matching in some central attributes. Moreover, Kehlmann‘s public and self-declared role as an informed scholar is questioned, especially when he uses fictional Humboldt quotes as if they were a matter of fact (i.e. as part of a foreword to a recent text edition on Charles Darwin). The article comes to the conclusion that those interested in general historical knowledge should not take this novel very seriously. N2 - Con su novela La medición del mundo Daniel Kehlmann pretende “de hacer visible una verdad callada e ignorada”. Pero esa verdad es tramposa. El libro de Kehlmann intencionalmente provoca confusiones sobre lo que son los hechos históricos y lo que es pura ficción. Por ende, el artículo compara las principales características del Humboldt “kehlmanniado” con la figura histórica y comprueba sus más evidentes incongruencias. Además, se cuestiona el papel público del auto-declarado erúdito e informado autor Kehlmann, por ejemplo cuando éste introduce – sin declararlo – citas fictícias de Humboldt al prólogo de una edición reciente con textos de Charles Darwin. Con todo eso, el artículo llega a la conclusión de que todos aquellos interesados en conocimiento general histórico no deberían tomar la novela en serio.

The aim of this study was to examine parental perceptions of the appropriate time to engage in child weight management strategies, and the factors associated with different weight points at which mothers recognize the need for preventive actions. Methods: 352 mothers with children aged 2-10 years took part in the study. We assessed mothers' perceptions of the actual and preferred weight status of their child, their ability to identify overweight and knowledge of its associated health risks, as well as perceptions of the right time for action to prevent overweight in their child. A regression analysis was conducted to examine whether demographic and weight related factors as well as the maternal general risk perception were associated with recognizing the need to implement prevention strategies. Results: Although most of the parents considered a BMI in the 75th to 90th percentile a valid reason to engage in the prevention of overweight, 19% of the mothers were not willing to engage in prevention until their child reached the 97th percentile. Whereas the child's sex and the identification of an elevated BMI were significant predictors for parents' recognition of the 75th percentile as right point to engage in prevention efforts, an inability to recognize physical health risks associated with overweight silhouettes emerged as a significant factor predicting which parents would delay prevention efforts until a child's BMI reached the 97th percentile. Conclusion: Parental misperceptions of overweight and associated health risks constitute unfavorable conditions for preventive actions. Feedback on the health risks associated with overweight could help increase maternal readiness for change.
