Ein umfassender Überblick über die Goth-Musik und -Subkultur.

John Robbs Erkundung beginnt mit einer Nacht in einem Goth-Club und taucht sodann tief ein in die von ihm selbst seit den späten Siebzigern miterlebte Kultur. Er beschreibt den gesellschaftlichen Kontext, der Goth in der Post-Punk-Zeit hervorgebracht hat. Er untersucht die weit zurückliegenden Ursprünge, die Vorläufer und den Einfluss der Goth-Kultur: den Untergang Roms und die Goten, Lord Byron und die romantischen Dichter, europäische Volksmärchen, gotische...

We may be due an Ice Age any day now as the earth wobbles through its complex long-term cycles of axial tilt, precession, and eccentricity. Not only are these cycles--on the scale of hundreds of thousands of years--poorly understood, but they intersect with other trends that could have an equally massive effect on our planet. It does not take an Ice Age, however, to change our lives; we are so accustomed to our present-day situation that even shorter term, relatively small changes may create havoc. Such fluctuations, no matter what their size, must be understood at broad scales of analysis...

The counterterrorism expert John Robb reveals how the same technology that has enabled globalization also allows terrorists and criminals to join forces against larger adversaries with relative ease and to carry out small, inexpensive actions--like sabotaging an oil pipeline--that generate a huge return. He shows how combating the shutdown of the world's oil, high-tech, and financial markets could cost us the thing we've come to value the most--worldwide economic and cultural...

From 1974 to the present, the Institute of Classical Archaeology (ICA) at the University of Texas at Austin has carried out archaeological excavations and surveys in ancient territories (chorae) in southern Italy. This wide-ranging investigation, which covers a large number of sites and a time period ranging from prehistory to the Middle Ages, has unearthed a wealth of new information about ancient rural economies and cultures in the region. These discoveries will be published in two multivolume series (Metaponto and Croton). This volume on the Neolithic settlement at Capo Alfiere is the...
