Rethinking international relations: an interview with Benno Teschke
No full textIn this interview, George Souvlis and Aurélie Andry talk with Benno Teschke, author of The Myth of 1648: Class, Geopolitics and the Making of Modern International Relations, about the relationship between Marxism and international relations theory. As Teschke notes, Karl Marx never completed a book on international relations, and the lack of a coherent Marxist theory of international relations has allowed dangerous assumptions – such as instrumentalist ideas about the state, a stagist conception of history, or a universalizing capitalist world market – to take root within Marxism. Here, Teschke discusses his intellectual trajectory, the main arguments of his work, and ways of understanding capitalist internationalist relations, while also making some observations about Political Marxism, the appropriation of Carl Schmitt, and the future of the European Union

Illustration 63: Zeitschrift für die Buchillustration: Heft 1/1974
No full textThis is one of two unusual finds in a lovely Berlin used bookshop. I did not know of the magazine Illustration 63. Antiquariat Ihring had several copies, and I looked through them. Not surprisingly, there were many fables represented in the good artworks reproduced in the issues. I found two especially nicely done and took them along. Each issue of the magazine includes a set of Beilagen, individual pieces printed on their own and included inside the back cover. This issue includes two Beilagen that offer fables. Benno Huth's smaller two-colored linocut presents Canum legati ad Iovem, the dogs sent to Iove. It is a funny illustration. Alfred Pohl presents in larger format a woodcut representing Iriarte's version of Aesop's Two Goats. As might be expected, it is a dynamic illustration. What I seem to be learning from Wikipedia and German Google is that the magazine died after seventy-nine issues.Language note: German#709La Fontain
MuChoMusic dataset
No full textMuChoMusic: Evaluating Music Understanding in Multimodal Audio-Language Models
MuChoMusic is a benchmark designed to evaluate music understanding in multimodal language models focused on audio. It includes 1,187 multiple-choice questions validated by human annotators, based on 644 music tracks from two publicly available music datasets. These questions cover a wide variety of genres and assess knowledge and reasoning across several musical concepts and their cultural and functional contexts. The benchmark provides a holistic evaluation of five open-source models, revealing challenges such as over-reliance on the language modality and highlighting the need for better multimodal integration.
Note on Audio Files

Openbaring en ervaring, ’n reformatories-konfessionele benadering van 2 Petrus 1:16–21
No full textRevelation and experience, a reformed-confessional approach to 2 Peter 1:16–21. The experience of divine revelation is of crucial importance to the author of 2 Peter and in the age of the Reformation this notion was reflected in the way Guido de Brès used this epistle in the Belgic Confession. Both documents teach a divine authorship of Scripture with God as its responsible author and also that Scripture contains revelation of God that is accessible and authoritative for believers, even centuries after the lives of the prophets. In this process both documents recognise a dual interaction between holy Writ and the experience of the believer. The interaction with Scripture inspires trust in God and the work of the Spirit in the believer’s life inspires trust in holy Writ as God’s authoritative revelation
Southern African perspectives on the role of womanhood in 1 Timothy 2:11-15
No full textAn overview of contemporary approaches by Southern African scholars indicates that 1 Timothy 2:11-15 has patriarchal overtones which are irreconcilable with socio-political agenda's that aim at a greater leadership involvement of women in church or society. A philological examination of 1 Timothy 2:11-15 brings similarities in argument to light with Matthew 19:4-6, emphasizing the non-cultural basis for the separate roles for women and men that the author of 1 Timothy envisages. An examination of the textual context shows that this different role for womanhood is not abusive, but aims at an environment that is respectful towards women and in harmony with the purposes of humanity's Creator God. To preserve the integrity of the text and its message, either a traditional or a 'wild life' solution is preferable, where 1 Timothy 2:11-15 is allowed to function in the context of its own habitat and worldview
