Radical Press and Radical Pressure. Printed Matter, Pamphlets and Radicalities in US Second Wave Feminism
The second wave of feminism, starting in the 1960s and continuing through the 1970s, was a period of feminist resurgence. Contemporaries witnessed an emerging network of radical feminists who fiercely attacked male-centred society and intensely questioned the roles women had traditionally played in the United States. Many radical feminists published their positions in pamphlets, a literary form historically associated with protest and upheaval. The semantic identity of pressure and the press in German (Druck) allows for the application of the term “Druckerzeugnisse” in order to analyse these functions of pamphlets across a range of radical feminist activism. This essay draws on influential pamphlets by groups such as the Redstockings, Cell 16, The Feminists or individual authors such as Valerie Solanas or “Joreen”. The aim is threefold: firstly, to portray the second wave of feminism as a densification of radical feminist discourse; secondly, to trace the similarities between a variety of feministself-understandings; and thirdly, to outline the different, often opposing, political standpoints in order to map the networks of radical feminism.The second wave of feminism, starting in the 1960s and continuing through the 1970s, was a period of feminist resurgence.

Une lettre latine privée sur support céramique d’Ampelum (Dacie Supérieure) : l’officinator C. Iulius Proclus et son cercle
A private Latin letter on a ceramic support from the mid-2nd century AD, discovered at Ampelum (Upper Dacia) and remained unpublished for four decades, provides new evidence on its sender, C. Iulius Proclus, the best-known officinator of the province via his signatures on a variegated ceramic production. Except some epistolary formulas and an accounting notation on the verso, the body of the text, despite its legibility, remains obscure due to encrypted notations. Une lettre latine privée sur support céramique du milieu du IIe s. p.C., découverte à Ampelum (Dacie Supérieure) et restée inédite pendant quatre décennies, livre de nouvelles données sur son expéditeur, C. Iulius Proclus, l’officinator le mieux connu de la province par ses signatures sur une production céramique très variée. À l’exception de plusieurs formules épistolaires et d’une notation de comptabilité au verso, le corps du texte, malgré sa lisibilité, reste obscur en raison de notations cryptées

A Pig for Poseidon. A Laconian Votive Relief in the Athens Epigraphic Museum (EM 8926)
A small votive relief dedicated to Poseidon and depicting a pig was found towards the end of the 19th century at Skopa, a small promontory near Kotronas, 87 km to the south of Sparta. Kotronas has been identified with Teuthrone, a member of the League of the Eleutherolaconians. The article offers a new reading of the dedicatory inscription (IG V 1, 1218) and the first in-depth analysis of the figurative decoration of the relief. A date in late-2nd or in the 1st century BCE is suggested. A member of a Spartan family involved in the local cult of Poseidon Tainarios is identified as dedicator.A small votive relief dedicated to Poseidon and depicting a pig was found towards the end of the 19th century at Skopa, a small promontory near Kotronas, 87 km to the south of Sparta.

Lucina: Die Göttin an der Schwelle
Ovid, antique’s best-known author, paints Lucina as an ambiguous sorceress, volatilely answering prayers. Still, allegoric representations of Lucina relating to the Spanish rulers and high society are found in Spanish literature, art, architecture and tractates. The pagan gods are revived in Renaissance art and do not fit into Christian moral codes nor qualify as praiseworthy saints, but nevertheless maintain a prevailing source of allegories and figurative images. Lucina’s appearances in Francisco Núñez’s obstetrical tractate Libro intitulado del parto humano, Pedro Ruiz de Camargo’s painting in the Arch of Santa María of Burgos, Michele Parrasio’s canvas. She appears on the frontispiece of Alonso Carranzas legal treatise Disputatio de vera human partus naturalis et legitimi designatione. The painter Lorenzo Lotto portraits Lucina Brembati and the Goddess is praised in the Academias literarias on the occasion of Carlos II birth. The allegoric representations of the Goddess are described and interpreted. Lucina appears as a midwife with aspects of Juno, Venus, Luna and the Virgin Mary and is blamed when misfortune strikes.
This contribution is based on the Master Thesis Lucina - Römische Göttin der Geburt in der spanischen Frühen Neuzeit

A „Critical Juncture“? Die Theorie der kritischen politischen Ökonomie in der historischen Kommunikationsforschung
Die historische Kommunikationsforschung kann von der Integration des Theoriestrangs der kritischen politischen Ökonomie der Medien und Kommunikation profitieren. Um diesen Punkt zu unterstreichen, bietet dieser Artikel zunächst einen Exkurs in die kritische politische Ökonomie als theoretische Schablone historischer kommunikationswissenschaftlicher Forschung. Danach beleuchtet er geschichtstheoretische Fragen, die auch in der historischen Kommunikationsforschung prominent sind, etwa: Wer darf Geschichte schreiben, aus welchen Gründen und mit welchen Grundannahmen? Diese Fragen sind auch für die kritische politische Ökonomie zentral. In beiden Fachbereichen geht es um die Interpretation dessen, wer wir sind und warum wir sind, wo wir sind. Das verdient eine Reflexion. Es folgt ein Überblick über Fragestellungen und Methoden, die in der historischen Kommunikationsforschung Anwendung finden, die aber durch die Theorie der kritischen politischen Ökonomie an Schärfe gewinnen können. Anhand dreier Leitlinien, untermauert durch konkrete Beispiele, bietet dieser Artikel ein erstes intellektuelles Instrumentarium für die Anwendung der kritischen politischen Ökonomie in der historischen Kommunikationsforschung.Historical communication research can benefit from integrating the theoretical perspective of critical political economy of media and communication. To underscore this point, this article first introduces critical political economy as a theoretical template for historical communication research. It then highlights theoretical questions of historical research that are also prominent in historical communication research, such as: Who gets to write history, for what reasons, and based on what assumptions? These questions are also central to researchers working in the broader realm of critical political economy. Both fields are about interpreting who we are and why we are where we are. This question deserves some reflection. What follows is an overview of issues and methods used in historical communication research that can be sharpened by critical political economy. Using three guiding principles, underpinned by concrete examples, this article offers a first intellectual toolkit for applying critical political economy to historical communication research
