    The Ystoria Ethyopie in the Cronica Universalis of Galvaneus de la Flamma (d. c.1345)

    Get PDF
    The section named Ystoria Ethyopie in the Cronica universalis written by Galvaneus de la Flamma (d. c.1345) depends, according to the writer’s statements, on a Tractatus de mappa whose author is easily identifiable as Giovanni da Carignano (d. c.1330), who drew a famous planisphere of the Mediterranean area. The Tractatus de mappa, as quoted by Galvaneus, reports surprising pieces of news about the Ethiopia of the time and in particular on an event which has been known so far only by a later and generally disregarded source, namely the Supplementum cronicarum of Giacomo Filippo Foresti (first edition 1483): the supposed embassy sent by an imperator Ethiopie to Western Europe at the time of Pope Clement V, that would be the first diplomatic contact between these two areas in the Middle Ages.The Latin text of the Ystoria Ethyopie is edited with an annotated English translation that intends to provide a detailed critical assessment of the document. If no conclusivem evidence in favour of the existence of the embassy emerges and the depiction of Ethiopia in the Ystoria Ethyopie appears to be in several passages influenced by contemporary ideas and expectations, there is no doubt that reliable information on early-fourteenthcentury Ethiopia was directly or indirectly conveyed to Giovanni da Carignano, as we can read it resumed in Galvaneus’s Cronica universalis

    Aushandlungen von Schwangerschaftsverhütung im Kontext digitaler Selbstbeobachtung

    Get PDF
    Zahlreiche Menschen nutzen digitale Technologien zur alltäglichen Selbstdokumentation. Hannah Rotthaus untersucht am Beispiel von Schwangerschaftsverhütung, wie die digitale Selbstbeobachtung auch in intime Lebensbereiche eingebunden ist. In ihrer Analyse argumentiert sie, dass sich die Verhütung mithilfe von Zyklus-Apps in einem Spannungsfeld von Emanzipationsbestrebungen und soziokulturellen Anforderungen bewegt. Im Fokus ihrer empirischen Arbeit stehen sowohl selbstermächtigende Momente innerhalb der Wissensaushandlungen der Akteur*innen als auch normative Elemente wie die Reproduktion von Geschlechterrollen im Digitalen. Die Studie basiert auf ihrer Masterarbeit, die an der Abteilung Kulturanthropologie der Universität Bonn eingereicht wurde. Numerous people use digital technologies for their everyday documentation of the self. Using the example of contraception, Hannah Rotthaus examines how the digital self-observation is integrated in intimate spheres of life. In her analysis she argues that contraception by means of period tracking apps is caught between emancipation efforts and sociocultural demands. Her empirical work focuses on self-empowering aspects within the knowledge negotiations of the actors as well as normative elements like the digital reproduction of gender roles. The study is based on her master thesis, which was submitted to the Department for Cultural Anthropology of the University of Bonn
