An examination of why paper continues to fill our offices and a proposal for better coordination of the paper and digital worlds.Over the past thirty years, many people have proclaimed the imminent arrival of the paperless office. Yet even the World Wide Web, which allows almost any computer to read and display another computer's documents, has increased the amount of printing done. The use of e-mail in an organization causes an average 40 percent increase in paper consumption. In The Myth of the Paperless Office, Abigail Sellen and Richard Harper use the study of paper as a way to understand the work that people do and the reasons they do it the way they do. Using the tools of ethnography and cognitive psychology, they look at paper use from the level of the individual up to that of organizational culture.Central to Sellen and Harper's investigation is the concept of "affordances"--the activities that an object allows, or affords. The physical properties of paper (its being thin, light, porous, opaque, and flexible) afford the human actions of grasping, carrying, folding, writing, and so on. The concept of affordance allows them to compare the affordances of paper with those of existing digital devices. They can then ask what kinds of devices or systems would make new kinds of activities possible or better support current activities. The authors argue that paper will continue to play an important role in office life. Rather than pursue the ideal of the paperless office, we should work toward a future in which paper and electronic document tools work in concert and organizational processes make optimal use of both.

In den dokumentarischen Texten aus dem spätantiken Ägypten begegnen häufig Kirchen und Klöster, Mönche und Kleriker. Aus diesem reichen Quellenmaterial für die Kirchengeschichtsschreibung hat der Verfasser zunächst eine Datenbank von über 6000 Texten zusammengestellt, davon rund 1200 Texte ausgewählt und an ihnen die Aktivitäten der Bischöfe, Priester und Diakone untersucht. Die Ergebnisse umfassen ein sehr weites Spektrum kirchlichen Lebens: Themen sind sowohl die Durchführung der Gottesdienste und die Ausübung der Kirchenzucht als auch Fragen des wirtschaftlichen Lebens der Kirche und der we
