    This collection details the life and work of the economist and professor Arthur Prinz. Much of his research and writing focused on the works of Marx as well as the relationship between German Jews and the economy. In addition to these topics, Prinz, who worked with the Hilfsverein der deutschen Juden in the 1930s, also wrote extensively on the subjects of emigration and immigration, especially of German Jewry.Perhaps the most well-represented topic in this collection regards the work of the Hilfsverein. Correspondence concerning this topic will be found in Series II, including correspondence with former members of the Hilfsverein. A large amount of material on this topic is also located in Series III: Manuscripts, and includes memoranda and articles by Prinz on the work of the organization, lectures on its work, and a fictional play given to Prinz by his colleagues at the Hilfsverein at the time of his leaving Germany. The related topic of Jewish emigration is also placed in several areas of the collection. Manuscripts of articles by Prinz on emigration are located in Subseries 3 of Series III: Manuscripts. Research notes, clippings, and books and offprints on such topics are in Series IV: Research.Prinz's writings and research on economics, especially in relation to the ideas of Karl Marx and the role played by German Jewry in the development of that country's economy are also to be found in several areas of this collection. Manuscripts of Arthur Prinz's unpublished dissertation, “Das Marxsche System in psychologischer Betrachtung”, in both the original German and a lengthened English version, is located in Series III: Manuscripts, Subseries 3: Non-Fiction. Documents pertaining to this piece include not only drafts of the manuscripts, but also research notes. The same subseries also holds the work produced by Arthur Prinz on German Jewry's role in the changing German economy: Strukturwandlungen der deutschen Wirtschaft und die Wirtschaftstätigkeit der deutschen Juden (Structural Changes in the German Economy and the Economical Activities of the German Jews). Material for this work includes manuscripts, research notes, and an outline. In addition, the collection also contains index cards pertaining to this topic. Further information concerning economics topics will be found among the research materials located in Series IV: Research.A third area of interest in this collection concerns Arthur Prinz's portrayal of everyday life in Palestine. Series I holds a biographical description of Prinz's experiences shortly after arriving in the area. Series II holds correspondence between Prinz and other individuals, which mention life in Palestine and the conflicts between various Jewish groups there. Finally, Series III also holds material on this topic in the form of memoranda and notes for a lecture.Very little detailed information about Arthur Prinz's personal life in America will be found among the documents of this collection. Information on his family members is scarce. Researchers should also be aware that many of the notes and manuscripts in this collection are written in stenography.The following individuals are mentioned in this collection: Auerbach, F.L.; Arndt, Kaethe; Baeck, Leo; Baehr, H.W.; Beckerath, Herbert von; Bergstraesser, Arnold; Bernstorff, Albert Graf; Berolzheimer, Josef; Bischofswerder, Franz; Blumenfeld, Kurt; Blumenthal, Arthur; Borchardt, Friedrich; duBois-Reymond, Robert; Birnbaum, I.; vom Brocke, Bernhard; Brodnitz, Georg; Bronfenbrenner, Martin; Brutzkus, Boris; Casals, Pablo; Carter, Jimmy; Chassel, Henry; Chodziesner, Fritz; Cohn, Benno; Church, Frank; Cohn, Fritz; Cohn-Willner, Ernst; Curtius, Julius; Curtius, Klaus; Diederichs, Eugen; Dreyfus, Willy; Dukas, Helen; Ebbutt, Norman; Edel, Dr.; Einstein, Norbert; Eppstein, Paul; Esh, Shaul; Faul, Erwin; Freund, Michael; Friedenthal, Hans; Garrett, Clarke; Goldschmidt, Fritz; Graetzer, Georg; Gross, Walter; Grubel, Fred; Gutfeld, Alexander; Haeften, Barbara; Haeften, Hans Bernd von; Harms, Bernhard; Hirsch, Felix; Hirsch, Kurt; Horwell, Arnold R.; Horwitz, Arnold; Jacobi, Stephan; Jacoby, Hans; Jaeckh, Ernst; Japhet, Laura; Joachim, Gabriele; Kahn, Ernst; Kantorowicz, Ernst; Kautsky, Karl; Kautsky, Luise; Klee, Hans; Knoche, Walter; Kraus, Israel; Kreutzberger, Max; Kuenzli, Arnold; Leschnitzer, Adolf; Levy, Emil; Levy, Rudolf; Lewy, E.; Loewe, Kaete; Maier, Max Herrmann; Mann, Heinrich; Marschak, Jakob; Marx, Karl; Meyerhoff, Dr.; Moller, Herbert; Newman, Herberg E.;Paucker, Arnold; Pechel, Rudolf; Oppenheimer, Ludwig; Pollack, Hubert; Prausnitz, Vera; Preuss, W.; Prinz, Arthur; Prinz, Clara; Prinz, Fanny; Prinz, Hermann; Prinz, Joachim; Reichmann, Ernst; Reissner, Hans G.; Rohrbach, Paul; Rosenstock, A.; Rosenstock, Werner; Rothschild, Henry; Ruestow, Alexander; Rumbold, Anthony; Salinger, Hans; Schelting, A. von; Schleier, Lilli; Schmitt, Carl; Seckel, Helmut; Shughart, Dale F.; Spiegel, S.; Spinoza-Loge, Berlin; Spranger, Eduard; Steinberger-Schwarz, L.; Stevenson, Adlai E., III; Stillschweig, Kurt; Strauss, Herbert; Templeton, Kenneth S., Jr.; Thaler, Karl; Thalheim, Karl C.; Wahl, Jenny; Warburg, Anita; Warburg, Max; Weiss, Samuel; Weltsch, Robert; Wiener, Alfred; Wischnitzer, Mark; Wolfers, Arnold; Wolpe, Ivan; Zehrer, Hans; Zweig, ArnoldArthur Prinz was born in Guatemala City, Guatemala, on December 3 1898, the son of Hermann Prinz and Clara nee Gutmann. His father had immigrated to the United States from Germany in 1876 and was a naturalized U.S. citizen who became a plantation owner in Guatemala; his mother was a teacher. In 1904 Hermann Prinz took the family to Berlin so his parents could meet their grandchildren, and died suddenly while there, leaving Clara Prinz to raise their three children, Walter, Arthur, and Alice. It was Clara Prinz who taught her son, Arthur, English.Arthur Prinz attended the Bismarck-Gymnasium in Berlin until 1918, then continued his studies at the University of Berlin where he studied economics, history, and philosophy. In 1923 he graduated magna cum laude, but his dissertation, "Das Marxsche System in psychologischer Betrachtung", was never published. From 1923 until 1933 Prinz taught economics at Humboldt University in Berlin,until the exclusion of Jews from the education sector, disrupted his career, and he was dismissed in July 1933.In 1933 Arthur Prinz was conducting research for the Streseman-Stiftung to write on international migration after World War I. It was while researching this topic that Prinz became involved with the Hilfsverein der Juden in Deutschland (German Jewish Aid Society). He worked for this agency from 1933 until 1939. Here he was primarily responsible for editing the organization’s bulletin Juedische Auswanderung. In addition, he conducted lectures on the subject of refugee and relief matters. On the evening of November 9/10, 1938, he was arrested and then released.In 1939 Prinz went with his sister Alice, who was very ill, to Palestine, intending to return to Germany and his work with the Hilfsverein once she was settled there. His colleagues in Germany convinced him to remain there, where he lived until 1947, working as a free-lance teacher and writer for newspapers. It was in Palestine that Arthur Prinz met and married his wife, Fanny Haber. In 1948 he immigrated to the United States and found a position teaching economics at Dickinson College in Pennsylvania. He maintained an active interest in Jewish and Israeli affairs as well as American socio-economic and political developments, and his prolific journalistic output in the period after his immigration to the United States documents these intellectual concerns. Arthur Prinz died in San Diego on August 27, 1981.EAD finding aid available onlinePhotographs removed to Photograph CollectionDer Ausweg ; Baeck, Leo ; Berliner Zionistische Vereinigung ; Council of Jews from Germany ; Deutsche Rundschau ; Einstein, Albert ; A.

    No full text
    Für den Autor ist der Diplomat und Feldherr Prinz Eugen von Savoyen, der zu seiner Zeit einer der größten Kunstsammler und Bauherren des Reiches war, auch herausragender Mäzen. Im Verlauf dieser Arbeit wird diese Behauptung dadurch untermauert, dass seine weit über das normale Ausmaß von Auftraggeber zu Auftragnehmer hinausgehende Beziehungen zu den einzelnen Künstlern dokumentiert werden.The author sees the diplomat and general Prince Eugen of Savoyen being on of the greatest collector of art and builder in the Holy Roman Empire as one of the most outstanding patron. In the course of his paper the author supports this thesis by documenting the close relationship between patron and the individual artist

    Motor involvement in action and object perception: Similarity and complementarity

    No full text
    When we perceive human actions or even objects, processing is not conned to the visual areas in the brain, but also involves specic cortical networks, which are normally used for motor control (e.g., Chao & Martin, 2000; Gallese, 2003; Jeannerod, 2001; Rizzolatti & Craighero, 2004). The activation of motor representations through perception implies a strong linkage between perception and action. This notion can be traced back to William James, who claimed that “every representation of a movement awakens in some degree the actual movement which is its object” (James, 1890, p. 1134). Later Greenwald (1970) made a similar proposal by stating that an action can automatically be induced not only by internally representing an action (goal) but also by perceiving it in the external world. Meanwhile, there is plenty of evidence that perceptual processing and action planning are intrinsically linked, and coded in a common representational medium (e.g., Hommel, Müsseler, Aschersleben, & Prinz, 2001; Prinz, 1990, 1997)

    Empathy for Prinz of the “Dark Side”

    No full text
    Jesse Prinz has argued that empathy plays no important role in moral judgement, and further that it has a “dark side” which renders it by and large bad for morality. This paper challenges these conclusions and demonstrates that it is possible to meet Prinz’s objections by adopting a conceptualisation of empathy which combines elements of Martin Hoffman’s process-focussed definition of empathy with Michael Slote’s agent-centred approach to empathy’s functional role within morality. Beyond proving resilient in the face of Prinz’s attacks, such a conceptualisation of empathy also displays a degree of explanatory usefulness both within Prinz’s own brand of moral sentimentalism and the moral psychology literature more generally. Far from being bad for morality, empathy would appear to be a useful ally to a robust moral sentimentalism

    É a teoria do sentimentalismo construtivo de Jesse Prinz de fato construtivista?

    No full text
    Recently, the constructivist position in metaethics has attracted and inspired a number of comments, both those who share its main thesis and see it with enthusiasm, as those who see it with some skepticism. One of the important constructivist theories in this area is that of Jesse Prinz. The central thesis of the author is that if morality depends on feelings, then it is a building, and if it is a building, then it can vary across time and space. The theory of constructive emotionalism, so called Prinz relies on two key assumptions which are a basis for the other. The first idea is that the feelings are the basis for all value judgments that are made ​​and that these values ​​can be studied historically and anthropologically to explain why some of them persist and because others have disappeared. The second idea is that feelings create the moral, and that moral systems can be created in space and time in different ways. Thus, the problem of work to be explored in this paper is to verify to what extent the theory Prinz agrees with the main theses of other constructivist theories and this is not the case, why she does not.Recentemente, a posição construtivista em metaética tem atraído e inspirado uma série de comentários, tanto daqueles que compartilham de suas principais teses e veem-na com entusiasmo, quanto daqueles que a veem com certo ceticismo. Uma das importantes teorias construtivistas nessa área é a de Jesse Prinz. A hipótese central do autor é de que se a moralidade depende dos sentimentos, então ela é uma construção, e se ela é uma construção, então ela pode variar através do tempo e do espaço. A teoria do sentimentalismo construtivo, assim chamada por Prinz, baseia-se em duas premissas centrais, as quais são uma fundamento para a outra. A primeira ideia é de que os sentimentos são a base para todos os juízos de valor que são formulados e que estes mesmos valores podem ser estudados histórica e antropologicamente de modo a explicar porque alguns deles persistem e porque outros têm desaparecido. A segunda ideia é de que os sentimentos criam a moral, e que os sistemas morais podem ser criados espaço-temporalmente de diferentes maneiras. Assim sendo, o problema de trabalho a ser explorado nesse paper é verificar em que medida a teoria de Prinz está de acordo com as principais teses das demais teorias construtivistas e esse não for o caso, por que ela não o faz

    From full life to balanced life: Extending Martin Seligman's route to happiness

    No full text
    In this paper, a formalization of Martin Seligman's concept of full life is presented by employing basic microeconomics. With the formalized version of the concept, it can be explained why people differ with respect to the levels of pleasant, engaged and meaningful life they are trying to realize. Moreover, it is suggested to extend Seligman's concept of full life to the concept of balanced life. This extension requires that in addition to differences in people's preferences regarding aspects of life also differences in the time opportunity costs are to be taken into account. Finally, a scorecard-approach is proposed to track personal advancement in the process of life balancing
