\n Al-Andalus in Past and Present\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n

Edited by Jenny Oesterle, Delfina Serrano, Isabel Toral-Niehoff, Monika Winet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Al-Andalus was a place of multiculturalism and religious diversity, characterised by peaceful coexistence, hybridisation and conflict between different communities. Natives, Arab and Berber Muslims, Jews and Christians interacted in all cultural and economic spheres and also in everyday life. Arabic was a common language and, alongside Latin and Hebrew, the lingua franca of the educated. There were also far-reaching political, cultural and commercial networks, both with players from the Mediterranean area from North Africa to the Levant, as well as with those from more remote regions such as the Frankish Empire or sub-Saharan Africa. The interdependencies and processes of change have outlasted the year 1492, and this cultural amalgam has served as a powerful projection screen until today.<\/p>\n

The series Al-Andalus in Vergangenheit und Gegenwart<\/em> aims to be a forum for studies dedicated to this historical region from the perspective of a broad spectrum of topics and disciplines. Academic work from the fields of religious and intellectual history, cultural history, linguistics and literary studies, philosophy, art and architecture, economic and social history, anthropology, archaeology, numismatics and medical history, as well as transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary historical approaches, entangled history, and studies on the later perception of al-Andalus are expressly welcome. The languages of publication are German, English, French and Spanish.<\/p>\n

flict: indigenous, Arab and Berber Muslims, Jews and Christians interacted in all spheres. The complex interconnections and processes of change among the communities outlasted the year 1492, radiate into the present, and continue to serve as a powerful projection surface today. The series Al-Andalus. Past and Present aims to be a forum for studies dedicated to this historical region from the perspective of a broad spectrum of disciplines, incorporating transdisciplinary and interweaving historical approaches as well as the history of reception. The focus of consideration is on the Iberian Peninsula, North Africa, and the Mediterranean Rim. The series publishes monographs, thematically coherent anthologies and conference volumes, text editions and translations, mainly in German.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/article>\n

\n Forum Cemetery Cultures\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n

Published by the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Friedhof und Denkmal e. V.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cemeteries have been central places of burial, mourning and remembrance culture for centuries. With their spatial structures, their sepulchral monuments, and buildings, they tell of the changing ways of dealing with the deceased. Originally as “empty” spaces, in modern times sometimes located far from the gates of cities, they were symbolically filled up over time depending on the social-cultural context. Thus, the cemetery can be seen as a space that, comparable to a palimpsest, stores biographies, mentalities, denominationally different religions and forms of belief, social structures, gender relations, and finally, local, and regional specifics.<\/p>\n

The series mainly publishes monographs on the history and present of cemetery culture, but also anthologies on coherent topics, for example on cemeteries in a city or a region. The series sees itself as a forum for different disciplinary or transdisciplinary perspectives, e.g., history, sociology, cultural studies, history of art and architecture, economic and social history, religion, politics, archaeology.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/article>\n

\n Heroes – Heroizations – Heroisms\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n

Edited by Ronald Asch, Barbara Korte and Ralf von den Hoff, on behalf of the DFG Collaborative Research Center 948 at the University of Freiburg.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Helden – Heroisierungen – Heroismen<\/em> is the publication series of the (DFG) Collaborative Research Center 948 at the University of Freiburg. Here, since 2012, scholars from the visual, historical, literary, musical, and social sciences have devoted themselves to the manifestations and meanings of the heroic in the period from Greek antiquity to the present. The focus of the study is on processes of heroization in various social, political, cultural and media contexts. The tense relationship between heroic figures and the social orders that are stabilized by them, but also called into question, is examined. The focus is not only on Europe, but also on East Asia and the Near and Middle East. In contrast to the widespread idea that we are now in a “post-heroic age,” the publication series reflects the lively boom and intensive new discussion of the heroic phenomenon in the present.<\/p>\n

\n

Published by the Cluster of Excellence “Religion and Politics” of the Westf\u00e4lische Wilhelms-Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnster<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Cluster of Excellence “Religion and Politics” has existed at the Westphalian Wilhelms University of M\u00fcnster since 2007. It is the largest research network of its kind in Germany, and among the 57 clusters of excellence in Germany, it is the only one dedicated to the topic of religion. The subject of the cluster is the complex relationship between religion and politics in various power constellations and conflict situations – from antiquity to the present. Across disciplinary boundaries, the cluster conducts basic research in the humanities and social sciences, thus generating important reflective knowledge for addressing pressing contemporary issues in a globalized society.<\/p>\n

The publication series Religion and Politics bundles essential results of the Cluster of Excellence in various formats. In addition to relevant monographs, anthologies are published that are based on joint scientific events and reflect the interdisciplinary and cross-epochal research spectrum of the Cluster.<\/p>\n

\n Transalpine Middle Ages\n <\/h2>\n\n
\n

Edited by Christina Antenhofer, Christian Jaser and Romedio Schmitz-Esser, co-founded by Uwe Israel\u271d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Interconnections, mobility, and cultural contacts even over long distances are among the striking characteristics of the Middle Ages. Against this background, the Transalpine Middle Ages series describes one of Europe’s central historical spaces of interaction between North and South, the study of which promises great innovative potential. The Alpine region appears as a decisive transfer zone for people, goods, and ideas. The scholarly book series brings together monographs and collaborative works that deal with the history of the transalpine Middle Ages from different perspectives. A transfer and interweaving historical perspective are opened, which can make an important contribution to comparative medieval studies. In terms of time, the series covers a long Middle Ages from the transformation of the late Roman Empire to the Renaissance.<\/p>\n

The volumes in the series are subject to a peer review process, carried out by members of the editorial board.<\/p>\n
