Abstract
This thesis aims to study Niklas Luhmann’s theory of social systems and its educational implications. The first chapter explores major problems and predicament in the study of education. It also points out contributions of Luhmann to educational studies. The second chapter traces sources of Luhmann’s theory of intellectual traditions. The third chapter then explicates the structure of Luhmann’s theory with an analysis of important ideas and concepts implicated in his works.These ideas and concepts include , for example , system , complexity , meaning , function , communication , self-reference and others. The fourth chapter discusses how Luhmann has reflected on current educational systems on the basis of his own theory. In particular,Chapter Five takes up Luhmann’s discussion in Reflexionsprobleme im Erziehungssystem. The last chapter , in conclusion , reviews major themes of this research , identifies the difficulties thus encountered, and suggests possible directions for future studies.
Briefe aus der Verbannung / Tristia. Epistulae ex Ponto : Lateinisch - Deutsch /
No full textIm Jahre 8 n. Chr. wird Ovid aus nicht bekanntem Grund von Kaiser Augustus nach Tomis am Schwarzen Meer verbannt, an den Rand der zivilisierten Welt, in eine trostlose Gegend, in der niemand Latein spricht und die er bis zu seinem Tod 17 n. Chr. nicht mehr verlassen wird. Er beginnt, verzweifelte Briefe zu schreiben - man würde sie heute "Offene Briefe" nennen - und diese nach Rom zur Veröffentlichung zu schicken. Sie sind sorgsam dichterisch komponiert, der Stil ist geschliffen und sie haben nur ein Ziel: die öffentliche Meinung in Rom für ihn einzunehmen; erfolglos, wie wir wissen. Gleichwohl sind die Briefe bewegende Dokumente frühester Exil-Literatur. Sie wurden das ganze Mittelalter über gelesen und haben das moderne Bewusstsein Europas mitgeprägt. Die neue Einführung des Münchner Altphilologen Niklas Holzberg und die neuen besonders ausführlichen Anmerkungen zu den unzähligen versteckten Anspielungen in den Briefen untersuchen sorgfältig, was an Ovids Klagen echt und was "Literatur" ist, wo er unter der Unerträglichkeit des Exils tatsächlich leidet und wo er nur gängigen Vorstellungen über die Wildnis am Pontos Ausdruck verleiht.

Scandal on campus. Dietrich Schwanitz reads Niklas Luhmann’s systems theory
No full textNiklas Luhmann (1927–1998) is one of the most distinguished sociologists of the twentieth cen-tury and the author of systems theory, which to a great extent has been accommodated into lin-guistics. Dietrich Schwanitz (1940–2004), an anglicist, is one of the most interesting interpreters of Luhmann on the basis of literary studies. Schwanitz is also known as a writer and author of the novel Campus (Der Campus, 1995). The main character, a sociologist, Hanno Hackmann, is wrongly accused of the sexual harassment and rape of a student. His reckless romance is exploited by various people in the university milieu to achieve their own goals. In fact, these people are, however, only the representatives of various social systems, especially politics and the media. Striving for re-election, the university rector needs this matter for his campaign, and the media are only interested in a scandalous story to be exploited for some time. Social communication does not reflect reality, and, at the same time, can be described as based on the “reduction of complexi-ty” (“Komplexitätsreduktion”). This is one of the most important concepts in Niklas Luhmann’s work. It turns out that systems theory provides the specific key to interpret the novel

The first author is supported by a fellowship from the Fannie and John Hertz Foundation Abstract AI planning research has historically operated in formal abstractions of the real world. This approach was useful in discovering many fundamental issues underlying planning; also, problems in simple domains such as the blocks world can turn out to be surprisingly difficult. Late..
Cross-Topic Author Identification -- a Case Study on Swedish Literature
No full textUsing material from the Swedish Literature Bank, we investigate whether common methods of author identification using word frequencies and part of speech frequencies are sensitive to differences in topic. The results show that this is the case, thereby casting doubt on much previous work in author identification. This sets the stage for a broader future study, comparing other methods and generalising the results

Geology of the present
No full textThe history of deep time on the planet is delineated by Earth’s stratigraphic layers. The task of identifying, analyzing and dating the transformation processes at work within the Earth’s systems falls within the remit of the geological sciences. However, the transition from the Holocene to the Anthropocene is turning geology into a social science. Microscopic physical, chemical and biological traces in the sediments are glaring indicators pointing to the acceleration and globalization of economic growth and ecological devastation that has taken place in the last decades. In which ways can the archives of the Anthropocene be made legible? Scientists, researchers and artists grapple with concrete stratigraphic materials in an exploration of the opportunities and challenges involved in planetary knowledge production.Introduction / Niklas Hoffmann-Walbeck, Katrin Klingan, Georg Schäfer Earth Indices: Processing the Anthropocene / Giulia Bruno and Armin Linke The Anthropocene as a Geological Time Unit /Simon Turner 12 Perspectives of the Anthropocene / Rowan Deer, Simon Turne
