Halevy himself exemplified the Orthodox struggle against Wissenschaft, yet his work expressed a commitment to modern historiographical discipline that suggested an internalization of some of the very same premises adopted by Wissenschaft. While criticizing the representatives of Wissenschaft, Halevy was, at the same time, fighting for the internalization of its innovative characteristics into Orthodox society. He saw himself as a leader of a movement working towards the development of Orthodox Jewish studies and his application of modern historiographic principles from an Orthodox worldview as creating critical Orthodox historiography. Halevy's approach promotes an understanding of Orthodoxy as a complex phenomenon, of which the struggle against modern secularization is just one of many characteristics.}, language = {en} } @article{Ariel2018, author = {Ariel, Yaakov S.}, title = {A New Kind of Jew}, series = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien [23 (2017)] = JewBus, Jewish Hindus \& other Jewish Encounters with East Asian Religions}, journal = {PaRDeS : Zeitschrift der Vereinigung f{\"u}r J{\"u}dische Studien [23 (2017)] = JewBus, Jewish Hindus \& other Jewish Encounters with East Asian Religions}, number = {23}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, isbn = {978-3-86956-418-0}, issn = {1614-6492}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-408952}, pages = {133 -- 148}, year = {2018}, abstract = {The article examines Allen Ginsberg's spiritual path, and places his interest in Asian religions within larger cultural agendas and life choices.

He chose elements from the Christian, Jewish, Native-American, Hindu, and Buddhist traditions, weaving them together into an ever-growing cultural and spiritual quilt. The poet never underwent a conversion experience or restricted his choices and freedoms. In Ginsberg's understanding, Buddhism was a universal, non-theistic religion that meshed well with an individualist outlook, and worked toward personal solace and mindfulness.

Examino la propuesta de Adolf Meyer- Abich (1968) de que el m{\´e}todo de Humboldt se deriva de un vitalismo inicial y luego desmentido por el cient{\´i}fico. Yo propongo, sin embargo, que en realidad es el principio humboldtiano de buscar la unidad en la naturaleza el cual funciona como 'principio regulativo', y por consiguiente motiva al investigador a buscar evidencia emp{\´i}rica de relaciones sist{\´e}micas entre fen{\´o}menos y condicionamientos geogr{\´a}fico-clim{\´a}ticos. Desde este punto de vista es justamente este principio met{\´o}dico el que empuja a Humboldt a atravesar grandes alturas y latitudes. La visita a Tenerife y al Teide le da una confirmaci{\´o}n contundente de la validez de su principio. Concluyo que la influencia de su m{\´e}todo en la creaci{\´o}n de nuevas ciencias, tales como la biogeograf{\´i}a y la ecolog{\´i}a, constituyen razones suficientes para suponer ejemplar el trabajo cient{\´i}fico de Humboldt como 'programa de investigaci{\´o}n progresivo'.}, language = {es} } @article{Huelsenberg2018, author = {H{\"u}lsenberg, Dagmar}, title = {Alexander von Humboldts Erl{\"a}uterungen zu {\"O}fen f{\"u}r die Herstellung von Keramik- und Glaserzeugnissen}, series = {HiN : Alexander von Humboldt im Netz ; International Review for Humboldtian Studies}, volume = {XIX}, journal = {HiN : Alexander von Humboldt im Netz ; International Review for Humboldtian Studies}, number = {36}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {1617-5239}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-419444}, pages = {63 -- 90}, year = {2018}, abstract = {This paper examines Alexander von Humboldt's interest in kilns used for firing ceramics and melting glass. This lesser known aspect of Humboldt's activities is related to his work as a Prussian mining officer in the principalities of Ansbach and Bayreuth between 1792 and 1797. In assessments and reports Humboldt commented on furnace designs and discussed the effectiveness of firing auxiliaries for high-temperature processes. He analysed the causes of the failure of burnings and meltings and made suggestions for their improvement. Various alterations that were carried out during repair work on existing furnaces at the ceramic manufactory in Rheinsberg and the porcelain manufactory in Bruckberg were initiated by Humboldt. Furthermore, it is likely that he was a driving force behind the decision to build a two-storey circular kiln at the Royal Porcelain Factory in Berlin.

In the first part, the article suggests that from a historiographical perspective, one may outline three waves of contact between these two cultural phenomena, at opposite ends of Asia. In the first wave, which began in the early twentieth century, Asian influence on Hebrew literature written in Europe was mediated mainly through the philosophers Schopenhauer and Nietzsche. The second wave, which emerged in the 1950s, relates to the influence of the leaders of the Beat Generation, who, in turn, were influenced by modernist poetry in English, which was colored by contact with Asian poetry. The third wave is part of the glocal New Age phenomenon and its appropriation of certain Buddhist traits. The second part of the article presents several theoretical possibilities of symbioses between cultures, as they appear within language. The third part presents the symptomatic example of the work of contemporary Hebrew writer Yoel Hoffmann, who appears to be a representative of the second wave; however, his work maintains dialogue with the first wave, and its current popularity is part of the third wave. Hoffmann's work serves as an example of how to apply the theoretical possibilities presented in the second part of the article, as an instance of literary contact between two cultures and their respective languages.}, language = {en} } @article{Steinorth2018, author = {Steinorth, Charlotte}, title = {Auf dem Weg zu einem menschenrechtlichen Schutz vor Abschiebung f{\"u}r Schwerkranke?}, series = {MenschenRechtsMagazin : MRM ; Informationen, Meinungen, Analysen}, volume = {22}, journal = {MenschenRechtsMagazin : MRM ; Informationen, Meinungen, Analysen}, number = {2}, publisher = {Universit{\"a}tsverlag Potsdam}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {1434-2820}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-410481}, pages = {87 -- 96}, year = {2018}, language = {de} }
