This collection of recent essays on James Joyce's masterpiece, Ulysses, provides an up-to-date overview of debates in Joycean scholarship, with particular emphasis on gender, postcolonial and ideological critiques, and deconstructive readings. The essays are framed by an introduction that assesses particularity and universal schemes in Joyce's novel, including its role in modern literature.

Flat Roof Construction Manual

Materials, Design, Applications

By: Klaus Sedlbauer,Eberhard Schunck,Rainer Barthel,Hartwig M. Künzel

Das Flachdach – dieser bei Architekten beliebte und gerne als fünfte Fassade beschriebene Gebäudeteil – sollte im Wesentlichen den darunter liegenden Raum vor Witterungseinflüssen schützen. Darüber hinaus optimiert die Integration flacher Dächer als Gründach, Dachterrasse, Verkehrsfläche oder gar als ertragreiches Solardach den Nutzen. Die fachgerechte Realisierung in der Praxis ist jedoch anspruchsvoll: der „Flachdach Atlas“ verschafft dem Planer neben grundsätzlichen Konstruktionsregeln einen Überblick über die Nutzungs- und Konstruktionsarten sowie die Regelaufbauten für Flachdächer. Zusammen mit den wichtigsten Normen und Regelwerken runden Konstruktionsdarstellungen der wesentlichen Anschlusspunkte die Publikation ab.

Channel Modeling and Physical Layer Optimization in Copper Line Networks

By: Rainer Strobel

This book investigates the physical layer aspects of high-speed transmission on twisted-pair copper wires, where the most performance-critical components are multi-input multi-output (MIMO) precoding and multi-line spectrum optimization as well as optimized scheduling of the transmission time slots on the fiber to the distribution point (FTTdp) copper link. The book brings theoretical results into the implementation, which requires the introduction of realistic channel models and more practical implementation constraints as found in the copper access network. A good understanding of the transmission medium, twisted-pair telephone cable bundles is the basis for this work. Starting from the analysis of measurement data from twisted-pair cable bundles at high frequencies, it presents a MIMO channel model for the FTTdp network, which allows the characteristic effects of high-frequency transmission on copper cable bundles in simulation to be reproduced and the physical layer transmission methods on the copper channels to be analyzed and optimize. The book also presents precoding optimization for more general power constraints and implementation constraints. The maximization of data rate in a transmission system such as G.fast or VDSL is a combinatorial problem, as the rate is a discrete function of the number of modulated bits. Applying convex optimization methods to the problem offers an efficient and effective solution approach that is proven to operate close to the capacity of the FTTdp channel. In addition to higher data rates, low power consumption is another important aspect of the FTTdp network, as it requires many access nodes that are supplied with power from the subscriber side over the twisted- pair copper wires. Discontinuous operation is a method of quickly adding and removing lines from the precoding group. To implement this, the system switches between different link configurations over time at a high frequency. The transmission times of all lines are jointly optimized with respect to the current rate requirements. Discontinuous operation is used to save power, but also makes it possible to further increase the data rates, taking the current subscriber traffic requirements into account. These methods are compared with theoretical upper bounds, using realistic channel models and conditions of a system implementation. The performance analysis provides deeper insights into implementation complexity trade-offs and the resulting gap to channel capacity.

W.H. Auden

Towards A Postmodern Poetics

By: R. Emig

This study reads Auden's poetry and plays through the shifts from modernism to postmodernism. It analyses the experiments in Auden's writings for their engagement with crucial contemporary problems: that of the individual in relation to others, loved ones, community, society, but also transcendental truths. It shows that rather than providing firm answers, Auden's poetry emphasises the absence of certainties. Yet far from becoming nihilistic, it generates hope, affection, and most importantly an ethical challenge of responsibility out of its discoveries.

Women Constructing Men

Female Novelists and Their Male Characters, 1750 - 2000

By: Sarah S. G. Frantz,Katharina Rennhak

Female novelists have always invested as much narrative energy in constructing their male characters_heroes and villains_as in envisioning their female protagonists, but this fact has received very little scholarly attention to date. In Women Constructing Men, scholars from Australia, Canada, Germany, Great Britain and the United States begin to sketch the outline of a new literary history of women writing men in the English-speaking world from the eighteenth century until today. By rediscovering forgotten texts, rereading novels by high canonical female authors, refocusing the interest in well-known novels, and analyzing contemporary narrative constructions of masculinity, the contributing scholars demonstrate that female authors create male characters every bit as complex as their male counterparts. Using a variety of theoretical models and coming to an equal variety of conclusions, the essays collected in Women Constructing Men skilfully demonstrate that the topic of female-authored masculinities not only allows scholars to re-read and re-discover almost every novel ever written by a woman writer, but also triggers reflections on a host of theoretical questions of gender and genre. In re-examining these male characters across literary history, these articles extend the feminist question of 'Who has the authority to create a female character?' to 'Who has the authority to create any character?'.
