    Established and Outsiders at the Same Time - Self-Images and We-Images of Palestinians in the West Bank and in Israel

    No full text
    Palestinians frequently present a harmonizing and homogenizing we-image of their own national we-group, as a way of counteracting Israeli attempts to sow divisions among them, whether through Israeli politics or through the dominant public discourse in Israel. However, a closer look reveals the fragility of this homogenizing we-image which masks a variety of internal tensions and conflicts. By applying methods and concepts from biographical research and figurational sociology, the articles in this volume offer an analysis of the Middle East conflict that goes beyond the polar opposition between “Israelis” and “Palestinians”. On the basis of case studies from five urban regions in Palestine and Israel (Bethlehem, Ramallah, East Jerusalem, Haifa and Jaffa), the authors explore the importance of belonging, collective self-images and different forms of social differentiation within Palestinian communities. For each region this is bound up with an analysis of the relevant social and socio-political contexts, and family and life histories. The analysis of (locally) different figurations means focusing on the perspective of Palestinians as members of different religious, socio-economic, political or generational groupings and local group constellations – for instance between Christians and Muslims or between long-time residents and refugees. The following scholars have contributed to this volume: Ahmed Albaba, Johannes Becker, Hendrik Hinrichsen, Gabriele Rosenthal, Nicole Witte, Arne Worm and Rixta Wundrak. Gabriele Rosenthal is a sociologist and professor of Qualitative Methodology at the Center of Methods in Social Sciences, University of Göttingen. Her major research focus is the intergenerational impact of collective and familial history on biographical structures and actional patterns of individuals and family systems. Her current research deals with ethnicity, ethno-political conflicts and the social construction of borders. She is the author and editor of numerous books, including The Holocaust in Three Generations (2009), Interpretative Sozialforschung (2011) and, together with Artur Bogner, Ethnicity, Belonging and Biography (2009)

    Noncommutative and vector-valued Rosenthal inequalities

    No full text
    This thesis is dedicated to the study of a class of probabilistic inequalities, called Rosenthal inequalities. These inequalities provide two-sided estimates for the p-th moments of the sum of a sequence of independent, mean zero random variables in terms of a suitable norm on the sequence itself. Rosenthal inequalities are named after H.P. Rosenthal, who first discovered them for scalar-valued random variables around 1970. The main results of this thesis extend Rosenthal's inequalities in two different directions. In the first part we consider random variables taking values in a Banach space. The main results give Rosenthal-type inequalities in the case where the Banach space is either a Hilbert space or an Lp-space. The inequalities developed in this setting are principally designed to prove a novel Ito isomorphism for vector-valued stochastic integrals with respect to a compensated Poisson random measure. These kind of isomorphisms are a key tool in the analysis of stochastic partial differential equations. The Rosenthal-type inequalities are further extended to apply to random variables taking values in a noncommutative Lp-space associated with a von Neumann algebra. By specializing this result to von Neumann algebras of square matrices, quantitative bounds are found for the moments of the largest singular value of a random matrix in terms of its entries. In the second part of this thesis Rosenthal's original inequalities are generalized to sequences of noncommutative random variables, given by elements of a noncommutative symmetric space. As is the case in the first part, these noncommutative Rosenthal inequalities are applied to obtain Ito isomorphisms for stochastic integrals. For the proof of the noncommutative Rosenthal inequalities several new tools are developed which are interesting in their own right. Novel results are found for other probabilistic inequalities in noncommutative symmetric spaces, such as Khintchine and Burkholder-Gundy inequalities, as well as results in the interpolation theory for such spaces.Delft Institute of Applied Mathematics, section AnalysisElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc

    Rosenthal, Norman: transcript of a video interview (21-Jul-2014)

    Interview with Professor Norman Rosenthal, conducted by Professor Tilli Tansey, for the History of Modern Biomedicine Research Group, 21 July 2014, in the School of History, Queen Mary University of London. Transcribed by Mrs Debra Gee, and edited by Professor Tilli Tansey. The project management and the technical support were undertaken by Mr Adam Wilkinson and Mr Alan Yabsley, respectively. Professor Norman Rosenthal MD (b. 1950) was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. He graduated as a medical doctor with high honours from the University of Witwatersrand in 1973. He immigrated to the United States, where he did his psychiatry residency and became Chief Resident. In 1979, he joined the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland, where he became first a research fellow and later a tenured researcher. It was there in 1984 that he led the team that first named and described Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), and pioneered the use of light therapy for its treatment. The paper subsequently became a citation classic and has been cited well over 100 times. He has authored or co-authored hundreds of subsequent papers on SAD, light therapy, and related topics. Along with colleague Thomas Wehr, in 1991 he was awarded the Anna-Monika Prize for depression research for his work in this area. He is also a best-selling author, whose book 'Winter Blues', now in its fourth edition, has been described as ‘a classic work’ by the 'New York Times'. He has also written seven other books for the general public. He is currently Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Georgetown University. He maintains a private practice in Bethesda, Maryland, and continues to research innovative treatments for depression and other psychiatric disorders.The History of Modern Biomedicine Research Group is funded by the Wellcome Trust, which is a registered charity (no. 210183). The current interview has been funded by the Wellcome Trust Strategic Award entitled “Makers of modern biomedicine: testimonies and legacy” (2012-2017; awarded to Professor Tilli Tansey)

    Mabel Rosenthal Collection on Edwin Franko Goldman

    No full text
    Edwin Franko Goldman (1878-1956) was a bandmaster, author, composer, and founding member and first president of the American Bandmasters Association. He received his musical training at the National Conservatory in New York, and from 1899-1909 he held the position of solo cornet with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra. In 1911, he formed the Goldman Band, and by 1918, the band was performing a free summer concert series, which later became known as the Guggenheim Concert Series. Goldman conducted this series until his death in 1956. This collection was compiled by Mabel Rosenthal, a family friend of Goldman's, and consists of newspaper clippings, programs, correspondence, photographs, medals, and scores related to Goldman's career as a conductor and composer
