Stochastic Geometry

Selected Topics

By: Viktor Benes,Jan Rataj

Stochastic geometry, based on current developments in geometry, probability and measure theory, makes possible modeling of two- and three-dimensional random objects with interactions as they appear in the microstructure of materials, biological tissues, macroscopically in soil, geological sediments etc. In combination with spatial statistics it is used for the solution of practical problems such as the description of spatial arrangements and the estimation of object characteristics. A related field is stereology, which makes possible inference on the structures, based on lower-dimensional observations. Unfolding problems for particle systems and extremes of particle characteristics are studied. The reader can learn about current developments in stochastic geometry with mathematical rigor on one hand and find applications to real microstructure analysis in natural and material sciences on the other hand.

The Jews of Europe in the Modern Era

A Socio-historical Outline

By: Viktor Kar dy

Discusses the socio-historical problem areas related to the presence of Jews in major European societies from the 18th century to our days; differently from most other studies, covers the post-Shoah situation also. The approach is multi-disciplinary, mobilizing resources gained from sociology, demography and political science, based on substantial statistical information. Presents and compares the different patterns of Jewish policies of the emerging nation states and established empires. Discusses education and socio-professional stratification of Jews. Deals with the challenges of emancipation and assimilation, the emergence of Jewish nationalism in various forms, Zionism above all, as well as antisemitic ideologies. The book ends with a scrutiny of post-Shoah situation opposing in this regard Western Europe to the Sovietised East, discussing finally strategies of dissimulation or reconstruction of Jewish identity.

Giotto the Painter. Volume 1-3

By: Michael Viktor Schwarz

Vol. 1: Life Giotto (1334) is the first European artist about whom it is possible to write following the schema of "life and work". The situation of the sources, however, is complicated: On Giotto's life, there are – on the one hand – biographical accounts from the mid-fourteenth century onwards that responded to various ideological requirements (patriotism, humanism, Renaissance ideology, cult of the artist); on the other, there is extensive documentary material from Giotto's lifetime, which seems to reflect less the biography of an artist than that of a bourgeois businessman resolutely climbing the social ladder. The present volume focuses on this second aspect of the Giotto figure's double life relating it to the form of existence of the pre-modern artist. Vol. 2: Works The paintings examined and contextualised in this volume are those secured for Giotto through early written sources. These sources also help to reconstruct the sequence of his works and artistic inventions as is plausible in the context of media culture in the decades around and after 1300: while Giotto was spiritually and intellectually formed in the sphere of the Florentine Dominicans, his artistic path began in Rome in the shadow of the Curia. The breakthrough to his own artistic concept came immediately before and during his work in Padua. In addition to prominent churchmen, ecclesiastical institutions, and the King of Naples, his clients were predominantly members of Italy's urban and financial elites. The adoption and further development of his inventions by other - especially Sienese - painters pressured him in his later years to try new approaches again. Vol. 3: Survival Giotto is considered by many to be the founder of modern painting. This thesis is discussed and modified in the present volume on an empirical basis. What emerges is that Giotto's impact cannot be reduced simply to the introduction of the study of nature. Rather, his art was involved in the development of pictorial idioms that were attuned to the skills and interests of their audiences. The new approaches in his painting contributed in particular to the possibility of examining and communicating psychological, narrative and allegorical content of great complexity outside the media of language and text, which not only changed the face of European art but certainly contributed to the intellectual opening of Western societies.

The Civil War in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992-95)

Political, Military, and Diplomatic History

By: Viktor Bezruchenko

The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992-1995) was the bloodiest and most savage conflict in post-WWII Europe. While numerous books and articles on the subject exist, this book fills an important void by comprehensively addressing the intricacies of the conflict’s political, historic, military, and diplomatic factors. The brutal civil war triggered by the demise of Yugoslavia. Based on documents and eyewitness accounts, the book covers the ideologies, hidden agendas, military operations, covert actions, and diplomacy that resulted in the Dayton Peace Accords of 1995. It also includes the geography, population, and tumultuous history of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The author convincingly dispels myths related to the war, including pre-planned Serbian aggression, the siege of Sarajevo, the massacres of civilians in the UN “safe areas” of Srebrenica and Žepa, and Slobodan Miloševi?’s role.

The Rediscovery of the Human

Psychological Writings of Viktor E. Frankl on the Human in the Image of Divine

By: Viktor E Frankl

Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning sold over 10 million copies and was translated into over 30 languages and was deemed by a survey of the Library of Congress one of “the ten most influential books in America”. This volume introduces and presents translations of a number of important but less well-known writings by Viktor Frankl, translated from the original German, in which he forthrightly relates psychology to religious concepts. These cast a strong, new light on the generally received understanding of Frankl’s contribution to psychology – “logotherapy” – and its relationship to the soul and universal ethics.

Yes To Life

By: Viktor E. Frankl

Sebuah masterpiece yang ditemukan kembali di antara tumpukan karya-karya monumental Viktor Frankl. Karya yang membuat kita melihat kembali harapan meski di saat-saat paling gelap dalam kehidupan kita—melengkapi karya fenomenalnya, Man’s Search for Meaning. Saya letih tak terkira, sedih tak terkira, kesepian tak terkira…. Di kamp kamu merasa sudah mencapai titik terendah dalam hidup. Lalu saat kembali pulang kamu menyaksikan segala sesuatu yang kamu coba pertahankan telah hancur…. Saat kamu menjadi manusia lagi, kamu bisa tenggelam bahkan lebih dalam ke sumur penderitaan yang tak berdasar. Kalau aku tidak memiliki sikap positif sekuat karang ini terhadap kehidupan, jadi apa aku selama pekan-pekan terakhir, atau bahkan selama berbulan-bulan di kamp konsentrasi? (Surat Viktor Frankl pada sahabatnya, Wilhelm dan Stepha Borner) Viktor E. Frankl, dikenal sebagai pencetus Logoterapi, demikian gigih menyebarkan gagasan tentang makna hidup, kekuatan semangat manusia, dan pentingnya memeluk bahkan merayakan kehidupan ketika kita dihadapkan pada penderitaan paling suram sekalipun. Gagasan-gagasan ini antara lain disampaikan Frankl dalam serangkaian kuliah umum di Wina, Austria, hanya beberapa bulan setelah dia dibebaskan dari kamp konsentrasi Nazi. Buku Yes to Life adalah kumpulan bahan kuliahnya itu. [Mizan, Noura Publishing, Psikologi, Selflove, Terjemahan, Indonesia]

Man's Search for Ultimate Meaning

By: Viktor E Frankl

Viktor Frankl is known to millions as the author of Man's Search for Meaning, his harrowing Holocaust memoir. In this book, he goes more deeply into the ways of thinking that enabled him to survive imprisonment in a concentration camp and to find meaning in life in spite of all the odds. Here, he expands upon his groundbreaking ideas and searches for answers about life, death, faith and suffering. Believing that there is much more to our existence than meets the eye, he says: 'No one will be able to make us believe that man is a sublimated animal once we can show that within him there is a repressed angel.' In Man's Search for Ultimate Meaning, Frankl explores our sometimes unconscious desire for inspiration or revelation. He explains how we can create meaning for ourselves and, ultimately, he reveals how life has more to offer us than we could ever imagine.

Viktor Frankl Recollections

An Autobiography

By: Viktor Emil Frankl

Born in 1905 in the center of the crumbling Austro-Hungarian Empire, Viktor Frankl was a witness to the great political, philosophical, and scientific upheavals of the twentieth century. In these stirring recollections, Frankl describes how as a young doctor of neurology in prewar Vienna his disagreements with Freud and Adler led to the development of "the third Viennese School of Psychotherapy," known as logotherapy; recounts his harrowing trials in four concentration camps during the War; and reflects on the celebrity brought by the publication of Man's Search for Meaning in 1945.
