Die Erforschung des Apollonheiligtums von Didyma begann in der Renaissance. Seitdem kamen viele Reisende, um die Ruine des weltgrößten Apollontempels zu besichtigen und zu untersuchen. Und auch heute noch werden neue Gebäude zutage gefördert.Ulf Weber, als jahrelanger Erforscher des Apollonheiligtums, stellt hier Didymas Forschungsgeschichte dar und präsentiert die wichtigsten Gelehrten sowie Bauten, Geschichte und Religion des Apollonheiligtums. Daneben beschreibt er den aktuellen Forschungsstand der deutschen Ausgrabungen, die das Theater und den Artemistempel beinhalten. Zahlreiche unveröffentlichte Zeichnungen und Fotos sowie viele, oft sehr unterhaltsame Episoden aus dem Erleben der beteiligten Wissenschaftler lassen dieses bedeutende Stück Kultur- und Forschungsgeschichte lebendig werden.

"In May 1961, President Kennedy announced that the United States would attempt to land a man on the moon and return him safely to the earth before the end of that decade. Yet NASA did not have a specific plan for how to accomplish that goal. Over the next fourteen months, NASA vigorously debated several options. At first the consensus was to send one big rocket with several astronauts to the moon, land and explore, and then take off and return the astronauts to earth in the same vehicle. Another idea involved launching several smaller Saturn V rockets into the earth orbit, where a lander would be assembled and fueled before sending the crew to the moon. But it was a small group of engineers led by John C. Houbolt who came up with the plan that propelled human beings to the moon and back-not only safely, but faster, cheaper, and more reliably. Houbolt and his colleagues called it "lunar orbit rendezvous," or "LOR." At first the LOR idea was ignored, then criticized, and finally dismissed by many senior NASA officials. Nevertheless, the group, under Houbolt's leadership, continued to press the LOR idea, arguing that it was the only way to get men to the moon and back by President Kennedy's deadline. Houbolt persisted, risking his career in the face of overwhelming opposition. This is the story of how John Houbolt convinced NASA to adopt the plan that made history"--

Sociability may be a key term of reference for eighteenth-century studies as a whole, but it has not yet developed an especially strong profile in music scholarship. Many of the associations that it brings do not fit comfortably with a later imperative of individual expression. W. Dean Sutcliffe invites us to face up to the challenge of re-evaluating the communicative rationales that lie behind later eighteenth-century instrumental style. Taking a behavioural perspective, he divides sociability into 'technical' and 'affective' realms, involving close attention both to particular recurring musical patterns as well as to some of the style's most salient expressive attributes. The book addresses a broad span of the instrumental production of the era, with Haydn as the pivotal figure. Close readings of a variety of works are embedded in an encompassing consideration of the reception of this music.
