Interpreting Art
How do people make sense of works of art? And how do they write to make others see the same way? There are many guides to looking at art, histories of art history and art criticism, and accounts of various ‘theories’ and ‘methods’, but this book offers something very unlike the normal search for difference and division: it examines the general and largely unspoken norms shared by interp…

Carnival Texts : Three plays for ensemble performance
Carnival Texts comprises three related dramatic works, all of which have as their point of departure Russian theorist Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of carnival, a literary style designed to subvert dominant assumptions through chaos and humour. Making creative use of post-Brechtian performance theory, these texts blur the distinction between spectator and performer in a fascinating exploration of…

Technocrats of the Imagination : Art, Technology, and the Military-Industrial…
Technocrats of the Imagination traces the rise of collaborative art and technology labs in the U.S. from WWII to the present. Ryan Bishop and John Beck reveal the intertwined histories of the avant-garde art movement and the military-industrial complex, showing how radical pedagogical practices traveled from Germany’s Bauhaus movement to the U.S. art world and interacted with government-funde…

Simplicial and Dendroidal Homotopy Theory
This open access book offers a self-contained introduction to the homotopy theory of simplicial and dendroidal sets and spaces. These are essential for the study of categories, operads, and algebraic structure up to coherent homotopy. The dendroidal theory combines the combinatorics of trees with the theory of Quillen model categories. Dendroidal sets are a natural generalization of simplic…

Mathematical Statistics
This book presents a detailed description of the development of statistical theory. In the mid twentieth century, the development of mathematical statistics underwent an enduring change, due to the advent of more refined mathematical tools. New concepts like sufficiency, superefficiency, adaptivity etc. motivated scholars to reflect upon the interpretation of mathematical concepts in terms of t…

Ausnahmezustand
In der Krise greift die Demokratie zum Ausnahmezustand – was das bedeutet, zeigen die Beiträge dieses Bandes. Die Ausweitung der Kompetenzen der Regierung verspricht eine effektive Krisenabwehr, sei es im Falle von terroristischen Anschlägen, Ausschreitungen, Übergriffen auf Polizeibehörden oder bei Naturkatastrophen. Dass damit eine teils erhebliche Einschränkung bürgerlicher Freiheits…
