Partiendo de una inquietud personal del autor, el presente ensayo investiga la posición compatibilista de los antiguos estoicos que les llevó a afirmar la libertad humana en el seno de un universo determinado por la providencia. El estudio comienza con una introducción en la que se analizan las distintas acepciones de los términos «determinismo» y «libertad», y se realiza un rápido recorrido por la historia del problema de la libertad en la Antigüedad. A continuación, se exponen los diferentes maneras en que ha sido entendido el compatibilismo estoico y se presenta la interpretación original del autor. En los tres capítulos siguientes se repasan los temas más importantes de las tres partes de la filosofía estoica ¿física, lógica y éticä a la búsqueda de claves que permitan respaldar la posición que se pretende defender. Con el mismo objetivo, se añade un quinto capítulo relativo a la práctica filosófica y unas conclusiones en las que se resumen los puntos más relevantes.

»Ich bin kein Engel, ich heiße nur so.«»Ich bin immer im Dienst«, sagt Tommy Engel von sich selbst. Denn wenn der Trommler, Sänger und Ex-Frontmann der Bläck Fööss das Kölner Trottoir betritt, wird er unweigerlich erkannt. Das kölsche Milieu, in das er dann eintaucht, kennt er aus der sprichwörtlichen Westentasche. Denn geboren wurde der »Tommy« als zehntes Kind einer anderen kölschen Legende: Richard »Rickes« Engel war einer der »Vier Botze«, die mit ihren Stimmungshits und Parodien schon vor vielen Jahrzehnten die Säle zum Toben brachten.Für die »Fööss« begann alles 1970, schon die zweite Single der Band schlug ein wie eine Bombe: »Drink doch eine met«, das Lied über den einsamen alten Mann und seine Einladung an die Theke. Tommy Engel und seinen Mitstreitern kamen dabei ihre Herkunft aus der Beat-Generation zugute. So erweiterten die Fööss das Spektrum der kölschsprachigen Musik um Rhythmen, die man bis dato nur aus den anglo-amerikanischen Hitparaden kannte.Fast ein Vierteljahrhundert verbrachte Tommy Engel mit den Fööss. Viele ihrer Lieder von »En unserem Veedel« bis »Mer losse d¿r Dom en Kölle« wurden zu Hymnen. Umso schockierter waren die Fans wegen seines Ausstiegs 1994.Mit seinen beiden Freunden Arno Steffen und Rolf Lammers startete er bereits vor dem Ausstieg das Projekt L.S.E., das sich zu einer Erfolgsgeschichte entwickelte. Als sein musikalischer Weg schließlich in eine Solo-Karriere mündete, schrieb Tommy Engel jenen Evergreen, der auch diesem Buch seinen Namen gab: Du bes Kölle.Tommy Engel blickt auf ein bewegtes Leben als Musiker, Kölner, Ehemann und Vater zurück. Zu Wort kommt aber nicht zuletzt auch der politische Engel: Schon die Fööss schufen zahlreiche Lieder, die sich an den herrschenden Zuständen rieben. Mit seinem Einsatz für die »Arsch huh«-Kampagne gegen Ausländerfeindlichkeit und für die Opfer des Kölner Archiv-Einsturzes knüpft Tommy Engel nahtlos an dieses Engagement an.

This book is a photographic journey of exotic Zanzibar. The island of Zanzibar lies off the coast of East Africa in the Indian Ocean. It is surrounded by coral reeds alive with colorful marine life. Pink flamingos cluster on the coastal shores. Since ancient times, the people of Zanzibar engaged in trade with mariners who found their way to this island paradise. They arrived from places as far away as Arabia, Egypt and India. An emblem of Zanzibar is the elegant "Dhow", a graceful ship which originated over 2000 years ago. Wildlife here includes crocodile, seals, pelicans and storks. Humpback whales and dolphin swim offshore. The rare "red colobus monkey" in Zanzibar is found nowhere else in the world. In the forest, these are leopards, the rare "blue monkey," lemurs and small miniature deer. Key destinations are historic Stone Town and Jambiani, as well as the other coastal towns.

The piano features prominently in Schubert's musical output throughout his career, not only as an instrument for solo piano pieces (for two and four hands), but also in Lieder and chamber music as an equal partner to the voice or other instruments. His preference for the instrument is reflected in contemporary reports by his friends and colleagues as well as in iconography, where he is frequently depicted at the piano. In early nineteenth-century Vienna the piano underwent a rapid period of development, allowing composers to experiment with expanded ranges, sonorities and effects that differ substantially from modern concert grands. Schubert's Piano considers the composer's engagement with this instrument in terms of social history, performance and performance practices, aesthetics, sonority and musical imagery, and his approaches to composition across several musical genres, stimulating new insights into the creative interplay among Schubert's piano compositions.

In the tradition of Elizabeth Kolbert and Jonathan Doerr, The Nature of Our Cities is a stirring exploration of how scientists from around the world are harnessing local ecology and innovative technology to protect the planet's cities from the effects of climate change.When it comes to nature, most people romanticize bucolic mountain scenery and verdant pine forests, but anyone who's ever lived in a city can tell you that nature has just as vital a role to play in urban landscapes. And with climate change altering life and mental health everywhere, nature can do more to aid and protect our cities, offering the potential to solve problems as diverse as flood preparation and wildfire management. As ecological engineer Dr. Nadina Galle argues, nature is our most critical infrastructure for tackling the climate crisis. It just needs a little help.A fellow at MIT's Senseble City Lab and selected for Forbes' 30 under 30 list, Galle has been at the forefront of the growing movement to use nature and technology together to prepare urban life for the climate challenges upon us. Now, in The Nature of Our Cities, she embarks on a journey as fascinating as it is pressing, showing how scientists and engineers from around the world are harnessing the power of technology and the natural world to save their cities, a phenomenon she calls the "Internet of Nature." Traveling the globe, Galle examines how urban nature, long an afterthought for many, actually points the way toward a livable future for cities. She reveals how technology can help nature navigate this precarious moment with advances such as: firefighting robots inspired by ancient forest wisdom, sensors that achieve 99% tree survival in increasingly dry, hot summers, and innovative smart ponds that collect and manage water surges from extreme weather.Optimistic in spirit yet pragmatic in approach, Galle writes persuasively that the future of urban life depends on balancing the natural world with the technology that can help sustain it. By turns clear-eyed and lyrical, The Nature of Our Cities marks the emergence of an invigorating, prescient new talent in nature writing.

In this book, Curt Hersey explores the history of U.S. media, demonstrating how news parody has entertained television audiences by satirizing political and social issues and offering a lighthearted take on broadcast news. Despite shifts away from broadcast and cable delivery, comedians like Samantha Bee, Michael Che, and John Oliver continue this tradition of delivering topical humor within a newscast format. In this history of the television news parody genre, Hersey critically engages with the norms and presentational styles of television journalism at the time of their production. News parody has increasingly become part of the larger journalistic field, with viewers often turning to this parodic programming as a supplement and corrective to mainstream news sources. Beginning in the 1960s with the NBC program That Was the Week That Was, the history of news parody is analyzed decade by decade by focusing on presidential and political coverage, as well as the genre's critiques of television network and cable journalism. Case studies include Saturday Night Live's "Weekend Update;" HBO's Not Necessarily the News; Comedy Central's original Daily Show, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and The Colbert Report; and HBO's Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. Scholars of media history, political communication, and popular culture will find this book particularly useful.
