    Die Entdeckung des 'Heidentums' in Preußen

    Get PDF
    Die Alteinwohner Preußens, die Prußen, waren im 13. Jahrhundert zwar zum Christentum konvertiert, im 15. und 16. Jahrhundert wird aber noch von ihrem Heidentum berichtet. In Abgrenzung zum gängigen Interpretationsmuster, das eine Fortdauer der Altreligion im Geheimen sieht, entwickelt Michael Brauer einen Ansatz, der als Dialektik von Christianisierung und Entdeckung des ‚Heidentums‘ bezeichnet werden kann: Erst als in den Reformbemühungen des 15. Jahrhunderts die vertiefte Christlichkeit der ganzen Gesellschaft angestrebt wird, geraten auch die wenig assimilierten prußischen Bauern ins Visier der Reformer; ihre eigenwillige, aber nicht religiöse oder antichristliche Festkultur wird schrittweise heidnisch konnotiert, reguliert und verboten. Mit der Einführung der Reformation in Preußen vereinigen sich die Einzelinitiativen verschiedener Akteure (Obrigkeit, Bischöfe), und erst zu dieser Zeit kommt es zur wirklichen Erfindung des prußischen ‚Heidentums‘ als antichristlicher Religion, für die kaum zeitgenössische Belege existieren. Die Rede über die "Heiden" diente der Verständigung über das rechte christliche Leben. Das Buch thematisiert nicht nur die Entdeckung des "Heidentums", sondern ist zugleich eine Kulturgeschichte Preußens zwischen Mittelalter und Neuzeit

    Ada and Knowledge-Based Systems: A Prototype Combining the Best of Both Worlds

    Get PDF
    We describe a software architecture based on Ada tasking and packaging which facilitates the construction of distributed knowledge-based systems. We used this architecture to build the Knowledge-Based Maintenance Expert System (KNOMES) prototype for the Remote Manipulator System (RMS) of the NASA Space Station Mobile Service Center. Each module of the system contains Ada packages of standard systems services, which interface with an artificial intelligence/ knowledge-based system (AI/KBS) language component that performs knowledge-based reasoning. By using Ada as the fundamental structure, we achieved a well-structured, maintainable program; by retaining the AI/KBS language component, we were able to capture the knowledge needed to solve illstructured, dynamic, and/or nonalgorithmic problems

    Evaluation of the Impact of a Public Bicycle Share Program on Population Bicycling in Vancouver, BC

    Public bicycle share programs have been implemented in cities around the world to encourage bicycling. However, there are limited evaluations of the impact of these programs on bicycling at the population level. This study examined the impact of a public bicycle share program on bicycling amongst residents of Vancouver, BC. Using an online panel, we surveyed a population-based sample of Vancouver residents three times: prior to the implementation of the public bicycle share program (T0, October 2015, n=1111); in the early phase of implementation (T1, October 2016, n=995); and one-year post implementation (T2, October 2017, n=966). We used difference in differences estimation to assess whether there was an increase in bicycling amongst those living and/or working in close proximity (≤500 m) to Vancouver\u27s Mobi by Shaw Go public bicycle share program, compared to those living and working outside this area. Results suggest that only living or only working inside the bicycle share service area was not associated with increases in bicycling at T1 or T2 relative to those outside the service area. Both living and working inside the bicycle share service area was associated with increases in bicycling at T1 (OR: 2.26, 95% CI: 1.07, 4.80), however not at T2 (OR: 1.37, 95% CI: 0.67, 2.83). These findings indicate that the implementation of a public bicycle share program may have a greater effect on bicycling for residents who both live and work within the service area, although this effect may not be sustained over time.&nbsp
