Online Dispute Resolution: Theory and Practice: A Treatise on Technology and Dispute Resolution
Online mediation is spreading rapidly as a mode of practice. In this chapter, Ebner surveys the development of e-mediation within the wider context of ODR growth. Next, the chapter presents a snapshot of the field's status quo with respect to stakeholders, modes of communication and the technology utilized, Finally, the chapter addresses substantive and process issues in e-mediation: mediation process models, stages and issues; practitioner skills; professional issues; ethics and practitioner standards.|The author identifies current trends in the fields and makes several predictions regarding the field's future development, including the adoption of online mediation by solo practitioners (as opposed to "service provider" firms), the rise of video-conferencing (primarily through low-cost, familiar platforms) and the somewhat counter-intuitive implementation of online mediation in disputes involving strong relational elements, such as divorce, community and workplace issues.357-38

False Dichotomies:
Echoes and Foresight in Works by Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach and Hugo Wolf
Andrea Weatherman Kikkert
Dissertation under the direction of Professor Barbara Hahn
Inspired by the Apollonian and Dionysian characteristics described in Nietzsche's Die Geburt der Tragödie, this dissertation features close readings of select musical and literary works from the late 19th century that wrestle with the complexities of the human condition and serve as examples of creative and receptive aesthetic praxis with real-world implications. I propose that Ebner-Eschenbach's and Wolf's successes with short forms disclose a latent unease in the decades prior to the outright political and cultural upheaval of the early 20th century. The aphorisms, short prose, letters, and songs in this study provided readers and listeners of the late 1800s with pluralistic models for confronting contradictions inherent to life. Drawing openly from their respective traditions, these compositions and writings exploit existing techniques and common forms by using familiar literary and musical elements for purposes contrary to their convention. Through their respective crafts and in the community of friends, these Austrian aesthetes reveal how small forms open a vast realm of possible applications due to their concision, flexibility, and interpretive prospects. Ebner-Eschenbach and Wolf curated with an eye to both the past and present, and this approach endows their publications with resilience in posterity. Because they refused to blindly lend contemporary authority to historical genius, their works themselves assert no such expectations for future reception, entrusting artistic culmination to the disparate interests of readers and listeners. Existing on a scale unimaginable to those of the late 19th century, contemporary challenges and opportunities are worlds away from the late Habsburg Empire, yet such magnitude and volatility demand the very depth, ingenuity, agility, and concentration exemplified by Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach and Hugo Wolf
Ebner\u27s Ethical Creatures: Animals and Humanity in the Work of Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach
This dissertation situates the work of Austrian author Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach within late nineteenth-century historical and social developments in Europe, especially those having to do with animals, as they are presented in literature of the period more generally. I devote particular attention to the ethical aims of Ebner\u27s animal representation in the context of nineteenth-century German-speaking Europe\u27s understanding of the human-animal relationship.
I investigate Ebner\u27s portrayals of animals and the social goals of employing such representations; questions raised by human-animal comparison and the social criticism undertaken by aligning human and animal characteristics; and literary and ethical implications of human-animal relationships. I analyze the manner in which Ebner portrays human behavior inspired by, influenced by, and directed at animals and the attribution of various degrees of cognition and emotion to animals themselves. Whether imagined by human characters in the texts or communicated to the reader via narrative identification with animal figures to inspire reader sympathy and empathy, Ebner\u27s depictions of animals draw heavily on nineteenth-century developments in attitudes toward the human-animal relationship and the status of nonhuman animals.
To put Ebner\u27s work in dialog with other European writers and demonstrate her participation in a pan-European trend in literary animal depictions, I treat additional novels, novellas, and poetry by writers including Theodor Storm, Theodor Fontane, Paul Heyse, Leo Tolstoy, and Émile Zola, as well as periodicals and activist and scientific writing from Germany, Austria, France, Russia, and England

La verità della parola. La critica di Ebner all’idealismo e alla filosofia in generale
Il saggio esamina l'aspra critica del filosofo austriaco Ebner all'idealismo di Hegel e alla filosofia in generale, che giudica incapaci di comprendere adeguatamente la realtà spirituale. Per comprendere il "pensiero dialogico" dell'autore, si suggerisce prima un'analogia tra Ebner e il saltimbanco Jof del film "Il settimo sigillo" di Bergman, poi si propone un parallelismo tra il pensiero di Ebner e quello di Hamann, che in modo simile rifletteva sui limiti della ragione e sulla parola che non è riducibile a concetto, in particolare nel caso della dimensione dello Spirituale e della fede. Si cerca infine di trarre un bilancio che tenga insieme l'esigenza della razionalità e l'inesauribilità della fede senza contrapporle radicalmente.The paper examines the fierce criticism of the Austrian philosopher Ebner to the idealism of Hegel and to philosophy more generally, which he deems unable to account for the spiritual dimension. In order to understand the "dialogic thought" of the author, this paper first proposes an analogy between Ebner and the acrobat player Jof of the movie "The Seventh Seal" by Ingmar Bergman. The paper then carries out a comparison between the thought of Ebner and that of Hamann, who also reflected on the limits of reason and of the word as something that cannot be simply defined as concept, particularly in the case of the dimensions of Spirituality and faith. In the conclusion, the paper examines the actual possibility of finding a balance between the need for rationalism and the infiniteness of faith
Self-actualization in representative works of Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach
This thesis presents a new evaluation of Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach\u27s figure conception by examining the theme of self-actualization in representative works of the author. The theme is defined first according to its psychological and social properties, and second, according to its established tradition in Western literature. Employing selected works of Ebner-Eschenbach in which the theme appears prominently, the figure conception proves to be a key indicator of the author\u27s highly critical world view. A large percentage of figures are engaged in a process of development. Few realize the goal of self-perfection. The traits inherited by birth and the pressure exerted upon the individual from the family and society prohibit a broad range of individuals, from the peasant to the aristocrat, from achieving the desired balance between personal needs and outside expectations. While the author expresses optimism that every individual possesses great potential, she clearly emphasizes the danger posed to this innate ability by social forces beyond individual control. The narratives confirm that unless dominant forces are kept in check, the welfare and further existence of mankind, especially of women and children, is in danger. The analysis of the author\u27s subtle yet powerful social commentary is a neglected aspect of her works and one which should be considered in the future

Motifs slaves dans les lettres autrichiennes du XIXe siècle: tentative de compréhension et de synthèse dans le cas de Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach
Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach (1830-1916) was born and grew up in Moravia. Despite the fact that her very first language was Czech, all her literary work was written in German ; despite of her Czech origins from her fatherside, all the references to be found in her work concerning the social and national development of the Czech society of that time express, if not animosity, at least a total lack of understanding. Everthing happens as if the author just wanted to confirm and uphold the official views of the Austrian Monarchy.
In this article, I’d like to show, mainly on the example of the novel Božena (1876), that a more careful reading which would take into account not only the textual statements of the writer, but as well the composition of the plot and the various behaviors of the Czech and German protagonists, could allow to bring nuances to Ebner-Eschenbach’s position towards the Czech – namely to see that she was perfectly aware and respectful of the cultural diversity and complexity of the Czech lands and that she felt a deep compassion for the claims of the minorities asking for the transformation of the Habsburg Empire into a Federation of free nations
