Das vorliegende Buch bietet eine eingehende Analyse der Episode um den Satyrn und Dionysos-Liebling Ampelos, die Nonnos von Panopolis (5. Jh. n.Chr.) in den Büchern zehn, elf und zwölf der Dionysiaka, dem letzten griechischen Epos der Antike, aufspannt. Im Charakterprofil seiner Ampelos-Figur, in deren Todesschicksal und Verwandlung in den Weinstock, spiegelt der Autor sein poetisches Konzept, das zugleich mit der Rückbesinnung auf jahrhundertelang tradierte Kultur- und Erzählformen einer neuen, dionysischen Formensprache verpflichtet ist. Die sprachlichen, stilistischen und kompositionellen Eigenheiten, die kreative Auseinandersetzung mit Dichtern wie Homer oder den Hellenisten, die Übernahme von rhetorischen Techniken und überkommenen poetischen Motiven sowie das gelehrte Spiel mit traditionellen Genera arbeiten auf das narrative Ziel der Ampelos-Episode hin: die Ausstattung des Dionysos mit seinem wichtigsten Attribut, dem Wein. Ampelos ist somit nicht nur Voraussetzung für zahlreiche Narrative in den Büchern 13 bis 48 der Dionysiaka, sondern wird zur Schlüsselfigur im poetischen Dialog der Spätantike und zum Kumulationspunkt des hellenischen Synkretismus des östlichen Mittelmeerraums.

The most efficient process to reduce NOx emissions from lean exhaust gases, selective catalytic reduction (SCR) with ammonia, has undergone tremendous development over the past decades. Originally only applied in stationary power plants and industrial installations, SCR systems are now installed in millions of mobile diesel engines, ranging from off-road machineries, to heavy-duty and light-duty trucks and passenger cars, to locomotives and ships. All of these applications involve specific challenges due to tighter emission limits, new internal combustion engine technologies, or alternative fuels. Three review articles and 14 research articles in this book describe recent results and research trends of various aspects of the SCR process. Reaction engineering aspects, such as the proper dosage of ammonia or urea, respectively, are as important as further developments of the different SCR catalysts, by deepening the understanding of their functionality or by systematic improvements of their properties, such as low-temperature activity, selectivity, or poisoning-resistance. Another covered aspect is cost reduction through the use of cheaper base materials for the production is active and stable SCR catalysts. Finally, research efforts are reported to develop SCR processes with different reducing agents, which would open doors to new applications in the future. The range of topics addressed in this book will stimulate the reader's interest as well as provide a valuable source of information for researchers in academia and industry.

"This book explores the existential redistributions that extractivist frontiers create, going beyond existing studies by bringing into the English-language discussion much of the wisdom from Latin American rural and forest communities' understandings of extractivist phenomena, and the destruction and changes in lives and lived environments they create. The author explores the many different types of extractivism, ranging from agro-extractivist monocultures to mineral extraction, and analyzes the differences between them. The existential transformations of Brazil's Amazon and Cerrado regions, previously inhabited by Indigenous people but now being deforested by colonizers who expand soybean plantations, are analyzed in detail. The author also compares extractivisms with the local and broader existential changes through global production networks and their shifts, produced by monoculture plantation-based extractivist operations. Anchored in the author's own ethnographic data and comparison of lessons across multiple extractivist frontiers, the chapters integrate the many accounts of violence, and onto-epistemic and moral changes in extractivist enclaves, looking at these with the help of political ontology. The book offers details on how to characterize and compare different types and degrees of extractivisms and anti-extractivisms. This transdisciplinary book provides new organizing concepts and theoretical frameworks for starting to analyze the unfolding natural resource politics of the post-coronavirus era, the advancing climate emergency, and the ever more chaotic multi-polar world. It will be of interest to students and scholars in the fields of international development, global value chains, political economy, Latin American Studies, political ecology, and international trade, as well as anyone engaged with the practical and political issues related to globalization"-- Provided by publisher.

Immunotherapy in multiple myeloma, first investigated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation, is now a major pillar in the treatment of multiple myeloma. CAR-T-cell technology, monoclonal or bispecific antibodies, as well as new forms of cellular therapy, have revolutionized the treatment of this hematological malignancy.
