Clemens Setz — an Author of Popular Literature?
This essay show the references to the so-called Popliteratur in the work of the Austrian writer Clemens Setz. Although Setz does not fit into the assumed periodization of this movement, his texts seem to have an aesthetic of pop-literature that corresponds to both the early and later approaches of the trend. The creative handling of archives of folk culture, experimental writing and the media networks have a pop-literature effect. Many texts are reminiscent of language-critical, experimental cut-up texts by the Beat Generation authors. The thematic repertoire also shows characteristic pop literary writing: There is no processing of social, political problems and the Nazi past, but, for example, the processing of generational conflicts, the problems of growing up and sexuality. The media staging of the author intended by the publisher also shows well-recognized mechanisms of pop culture

Effect of different brushing parameters on erosive tooth wear in primary bovine enamel and dentin.
This in-vitro study aimed to analyse the effect of brushing and different brushing parameters (kind of toothpaste, kind of toothbrush, brushing force) on erosive tooth wear of primary bovine enamel and dentin. Specimens were prepared from primary bovine enamel or dentin (each group n = 12) and cyclically eroded (6 × 60 s/d, citric acid, pH 2.4) and brushed with children's toothbrushes (2 × 15 s/d) over 5 days. The brushing parameters under investigation were: toothpaste (fluoridated, fluoride-free), toothbrush (manual; rotating-oscillating and sonic, each at two different activation modes) and brushing force (1 N, 2 N). Specimens that were only eroded and not brushed served as controls. Enamel and dentin wear was quantified using widefield confocal microscopy. Statistical analysis was performed using three- and one-way ANOVAs followed by Scheffe's (enamel) or Tamhane's (dentin) post-hoc tests (p < 0.05). Brushing with the fluoridated toothpaste was able to significantly reduce erosive wear in enamel (by 15 to 37%, 6 of 10 groups) and in dentin (by 58 to 72%, all groups), while brushing with the fluoride-free toothpaste was not different from the controls. Considering the kind of toothpaste and brushing force, slight differences between the toothbrushes were observed in enamel, but not in dentin. Within the same toothbrush and activation mode, almost no differences between 1 and 2 N brushing force were detected. In conclusion, erosive tooth wear on primary bovine dental hard tissue mainly depends on the kind of toothpaste, rather than on the kind of toothbrush and the brushing force

Die edelmütige Äbtissin oder Die wieder vereinten Emigranten: Von Emilie Pettersson
Um 1820 verfasst Emelie Pettersson das Drama Die edelmütige Äbtissin als Geschenk für die schwedische Prinzessin Sofia Albertina. In diesem Band feiert die vergessene Handschrift eine Wiederauferstehung. Das älteste Drama einer Autorin auf Schwedisch mutet dabei ungemein modern an: Es erzählt von Krieg, Flucht sowie Asyl und stellt eine handlungsstarke Herrscherin ins Zentrum. Begleitet wird das Stück von wissenschaftlichen Beiträgen, die den Text, die Beschenkte sowie historische und literarische Zusammenhänge beleuchten.Omkring 1820 skriver Emelie Pettersson sitt drama Den Ädelmodiga Abbedissan som gåva till den svenska prinsessan Sofia Albertina. I föreliggande volym återuppstår den bortglömda handskriften. Det äldsta hittills kända svenskspråkiga dramat av en kvinnlig författare framstår som mycket aktuellt: Det berättar om krig, flykt och asyl samtidigt som det fokuserar på en kvinnlig huvudperson med stark handlingsvilja. Teaterstycket åtföljs av ett antal vetenskapliga bidrag som belyser texten samt berörda historiska och litterära sammanhangAround 1820, Emelie Pettersson writes the drama The Noble Abbess as a gift for the Swedish Princess Sofia Albertina. In this volume, the forgotten manuscript celebrates a resurrection. The oldest drama by a female author in Swedish has an incredibly modern feel: It tells of war, migration, and asylum and focuses on a powerful female protagonist. The play is accompanied by academic contributions that shed light on the text, the recipient and historical and literary contexts
