Abstract

"The authors present a new edition of all fragments of the laws of Draco and Solon with the original Greek and Latin texts, a German translation and a detailed commentary as well as a historical classification. The revision results in new interpretations for many fragments of the law. This allows for a fundamentally new historical assessment of the legislatures of Draco and Solon and their legislation, and a more accurate grasp of the political, economic and social problems in Athens during this period. The edition enables a new perspective on the writing phase of ancient law in the late 7th and early 6th centuries BC. -- as an answer to urgent problems. It covers homicide laws and the establishment of tyranny, regulations governing eligibility for political office, procedural law and legitimate autonomy, the calendar of victims and religious offences, cowardice in the face of the enemy, sexual offenses, acts of violence, theft and insults, on contract law and family law. The legal fragments are also of central importance for the law of obligations in the Solonian period" --

Abstract

Social coexistence is made possible and regulated by norms. Which actions are labeled and sanctioned as transgressions of norms is the result of social negotiation processes. Transgression and norm deviance can both stabilize and undermine the existing norm system. The contributions to this anthology aim to provide some impulses on the relationship between norm and deviance in ancient societies by means of selected case studies from the Greek classical period to the Roman imperial period and to investigate the role of transgressive acts for the dynamics of social systems. This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.

Abstract

Der Katalog widmet sich dem künstlerischen Phänomen von Blanko-Büchern im internationalen Kontext seit 1960. Das dem herkömmlichen Verständnis von Funktion und Inhalt eines Buches zuwiderlaufende Konzept - die Leere, das Unlesbare und Nicht-Abbildhafte zum Inhalt von Büchern zu machen - hat eine reichhaltige künstlerische Praxis ausgebildet. Sie legt offen, dass Kommunikation und Sprache aus Verhandlung, Vereinbarung, Verweigerung und Differenz bestehen, mit Humor, Ironie und auch Sprachlosigkeit arbeiten und von Anfang und Ende, Imagination und Verweis, Meinungsfreiheit und Zensur handeln. The catalogue book "Blank. Raw. Illegible... Artists' Books as Statements (1960-2022)" is published on the occasion of the likewise titled exhibition at the Leopold-Hoesch-Museum, Düren. It is dedicated to the artistic phenomenon of blank books in an international context since 1960. The concept of making the empty, the illegible, and the non-imageable the content of books, which runs counter to the conventional understanding of the function and content of a book, has developed a rich artistic practice with diverse aspects. It reveals that communication and language consist of negotiation, agreement, refusal, and difference, work with humor, irony, and also speechlessness, and deal with beginnings and endings, imagination and reference, freedom of expression and censorship.

Abstract

The 'Pictograms, Signs of Life, Emojis: The Society of Signs' catalogue explores the questions: What objectives, and hopes are linked to the development of the modern language of images, including emojis? To which issues of their time are they each reacting to? Do they expand our possibilities of expression or do they limit them by defining stereotypes? The focus of this catalogue is on lexicons and systems of pictorial signs devised by designers and artists like Gerd Arntz, Marie and Otto Neurath, Otl Aicher, Yukio Ota or Wolfgang Schmidt and others. How functional or engaging do the designers consider their pictorial signs to be? Are they interested in universal forms of communication or personal spaces of retreat, rapid transmission of information or complex or poetic forms of language, abstraction or individualisation? - with Otl Aicher, Moritz Appich / Jonas Grünwald / Bruno Jacoby, Gerd Arntz, Johannes Bergerhausen / Ilka Helmig, Karsten de Riese, Antje Ehmann / Harun Farocki, Juli Gudehus, Pati Hill, Timothée Ingen-Housz, Shigetaka Kurita, Warja Lavater, Marie Neurath, Otto Neurath, Yukio Ota, Hinrich Sachs, Wolfgang Schmidt, Lilian Stolk, Edgar Walthert
