"Enclosed by the Suez Canal and bordering Gaza and Israel, Egypt's rugged Sinai Peninsula has been the cornerstone of the Egyptian-Israeli peace accords, yet its internal politics and security have remained largely under media blackout. While the international press descended on the capital Cairo in January 2011, Sinai's armed rebellion was ignored. The regime lost control of the peninsula in a matter of days and, since then, unprecedented chaos has reigned and the Islamist insurgency has gathered pace. In this crucial analysis, Mohannad Sabry argues that Egypt's shortsighted security approach has continually proven to be a failure. Decades of flawed policies have exacerbated immense social and economic problems, and maintained a superficial stability under which arms trafficking, the smuggling tunnels, and militancy could silently thrive-and finally prevail following the overthrow of Mubarak. Sinai is vital reading for scholars, journalists, policy makers, and all those concerned by the plunge of one of the Middle East's most critical regions into turmoil."--Book jacket.

Die Forschung zur deutschen Sprache in Österreich ist seit Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends durch neue Ansätze gekennzeichnet: An die Seite von Arbeiten in der Tradition der philologischen Dialektologie, der Diskursanalyse im Paradigma der „Wiener Schule“ oder auch der „klassisch“ korrelativen Soziolinguistik treten zunehmend Untersuchungen auf Basis der sprachdynamisch fundierten Variationslinguistik, der interaktionalen Soziolinguistik sowie der modernen Spracheinstellungs- und -perzeptionsforschung. Der vorliegende Band reflektiert die Dynamik des Forschungsfeldes und nähert sich ihm aus unterschiedlichsten theoretischen wie empirischen Perspektiven an. Im Zentrum der insgesamt neun Beiträge steht dabei der standardsprachliche Pol des „vertikalen“ Varietätenspektrums

Sous quelles formes le XVIIIe siècle reste-t-il présent dans la littérature contemporaine ? S'agit-il seulement d'un héritage de mythes, qui se sont démythifiés au contact de notre modernité, ou de valeurs qui continuent à avoir un sens aujourd'hui ? Ce livre propose un parcours dans les romans de nombreux auteurs contemporains. Le libertinage, les peintres des Lumières, notamment Watteau et Fragonard, Rousseau et sa légende, la Révolution et ses polémiques : autant de legs que les romanciers d'aujourd'hui mettent en question avec une liberté et un sens de l'invention formelle également héritée de ce laboratoire des Lumières qui fut si fécond pour la création romanesque. Conscience du présent, le siècle des Lumières nous éclaire encore.

"Beirut is the cultural, commercial and economic hub of Lebanon. But to what extent has the city affected and shaped the formation and perceptions of Lebanese national identity? Ghenwa Hayek here explores how anxieties over the past, present and future of Beirut have been articulated through a sense of dislocation present in Lebanese writing since the 1960s. Drawing on theories of cultural studies, geography and history, the author uses an interdisciplinary framework to explore the role that spaces - from rural to urban - have played and continue to play in the defining, and re-defining, of national identity in the seventy years since the creation of the Lebanese nation state. Examining a wide range of modern and contemporary literature, Hayek charts the rise to cultural prominence of the city of Beirut as a significant player in shaping perceptions of Lebanese culture and identity - not only following the destruction of the city-centre during the country's fifteen-year civil war, as is mostly assumed in recent scholarship - but over a century."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
