Looking at and listening to picture and story books is a ubiquitous activity, frequently enjoyed by many young children and their parents. Well before children can read for themselves they are able to learn from books. Looking at and listening to books increases children's general knowledge, understanding about the world and promotes language acquisition. This collection of papers demonstrates the breadth of information pre-reading children learn from books and increases our understanding of the social and cognitive mechanisms that support this learning. Our hope is that this Research Topic/eBook will be useful for researchers as well as educational practitioners and parents who are interested in optimizing children's learning.

Stiftungen sind ein universales Phänomen entwickelter Gesellschaften von Babylon und Ägypten bis zur Gegenwart. Obwohl die Verwandtschaft der Zeugnisse und Belege über mehrere Jahrtausende längst erkannt ist, gibt es bisher keinen systematischen Vergleich für einen begrenzten Zeitraum, aber in globaler Weite, und deshalb auch keine sicheren Erkenntnisse über interkulturelle Wechselbeziehungen, Neuerfindungen und besonderen Ausprägungen. In dieser Enzyklopädie wird für das Jahrtausend von ca. 500-1500 zum ersten Mal der Versuch zu einer parallelen Erschließung des Stiftungswesens in fünf religiös geprägten Kulturen gemacht. Alle Themen werden von je einem Experten für das lateinische und griechisch-orthodoxe Christentum, für das Judentum, den Islam und die brahmanische, hinduistische, jainistische und buddhistische Welt Indiens behandelt, so dass die jeweiligen Ergebnisse in einen interkulturellen Vergleich eingehen können. Der zweite Band betrifft das „soziale System Stiftung“ und behandelt die Zwecke (religiöses Verdienst, weltliche Ambitionen; Gedenken und Kultus; Wohltätigkeit und Bildung), die Wirtschaft (Vermögen und Erträge) und die Akteure (Stifter; Stiftungsbegünstigte und Stiftungsorganisatoren). The second volume of this intercultural comparative encyclopedia is devoted to the actors behind ‘medieval’ foundations in Latin Europe, Byzantium, the Islamic lands, Judaism, and the multi-religious world of India. Individual chapters address religious merits and worldly ambitions, remembrance and cults, charity and education, foundation assets and profits, donors, beneficiaries of foundations, and the organization of foundations.
