Abstract

Als ‚Hörfilme‘ werden Kino- und Fernsehfilme bezeichnet, die für sehbehinderte und blinde Rezipienten mit ‚Audiodeskriptionen‘ versehen sind. Dies sind Texte, die wie „akustische Untertitel“ in Dialogpausen eingesprochen werden, gleichsam als Übersetzung des Visuellen in Sprachliches. Was aber geschieht, wenn visuelle Funktionen durch Sprache ersetzt werden müssen? Als Pilotstudie geht der vorliegende Band den sich aus dieser Fragestellung ergebenden medien- wie zeichentheoretischen Problemen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven nach. Die einzelnen Beiträge stellen dabei sprach-, literatur-, übersetzungs- und kulturwissenschaftliche Aspekte in den Mittelpunkt. Das Untersuchungsmaterial liefern Beispiele aus der Praxis.

Abstract

Emphatically revisionist, Bob Pepperman Taylor reveals a Thoreau most people never knew existed. Contrary to conventional views, Taylor argues that Thoreau was one of America's most powerful and least understood political thinkers, a man who promoted community and democratic values, while being ever vigilant against the evils of excessive or illegitimate authority.Still widely viewed as a remarkable nature writer but simplistic philosopher with no real understanding of society, Thoreau is resurrected here as a profound social critic with more on his mind than utopian daydreams. Rather than the aloof and very private individualist spurned by conservatives and championed by radicals and environmentalists, Taylor portrays Thoreau as a genuinely engaged political theorist concerned with the moral foundations of public life. Like a solicitous "bachelor uncle" (a selfreferential phrase from his journals), Thoreau persistently prodded his fellow citizens to remember that they were responsible for independently evaluating the behavior of their government and political community. Taylor contends that, far from being confined to a few political essays ("Civil Disobedience," "Slavery in Massachusetts," and "A Plea for Captain John Brown"), Thoreau's political critique was a lifetime project that informed virtually all of his work. Taylor's persuasive study should send readers back to Walden, A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, and the 14volume Journal, among many other writings, for a provocative new look at one of America's most influential writers.

Abstract

"What is the result of developing a very specific dialogue, between people with a visual impairment and non-disabled people, in a very specific environment, the historic environment of a city? This dialogue process, wich defines a cultural model of disability, is the central theme in this book. It builds on the need for adapting and modifying the environment rather than the person. This book envisions the making of a multi-sensorial city, one in which a visual esthetics is questioned by the need for functionality, other forms of perception such as tactile and auditory, and considering the co-existence of the historical and the supermodern, including the impact of new technologies. By taking visual limitations as a starting point, fresh departures are taken with questions on the development of a local accessibility policy, the design of multi-sensorial environments, and possible applications in tourism and education. At a more fundamental theoretical level, this book inquires about the nature of disability, the city and their dialectics." [Publisher]
