Few Western scholars of the Middle East have exerted such profound influence as Edward William Lane. Lane's "Account of the manners and customs of the modern Egyptians" (1836), which has never gone out of print, remains a highly authoritative study of the Middle Eastern society. His annotated translations of the "Arabian Nights" (1839-1841) retains a devoted readership. Lane's recently recovered and published "Description of Egypt" shows that he was a pioneering Egyptologist as well as orientalist. The capstone of his career, the definitive "Arabic-English Lexicon" (1863-93), is an indispensable reference tool. Yet, despite his extraordinary influence, little was known about Lane and virtually nothing about how he did his work. Now, for the first time, Lane's life and accomplishments are examined in full, including his crucial years of field work in Egyptian, revealing the life of a great Victorian scholar and presenting a fascinating episode in east-west encounter, interaction, and representation.

Der Prager Germanist August Sauer wirkte nicht nur im engeren akademischen Rahmen an der dortigen Karl-Ferdinand-Universität, sondern auch in kultur- und wissenschaftspolitischer Hinsicht. Sein Einfluss auf die intellektuellen und wissenschaftlichen Diskurse in Böhmen bzw. später der Tschechoslowakei, aber auch auf Habsburg-Österreich insgesamt ist von nicht zu unterschätzender Bedeutung. Der vorliegende Sammelband würdigt August Sauers Werk aus literatur-, kultur- und geschichtswissenschaftlicher Perspektive, bei der der kultur- und wissenschaftspolitische Kontext genauso in den Blick genommen wird wie der engere fachhistorische Rahmen.
