Whilst the treatment of mortal remains was largely predetermined in previous generations as an essential part of their respective cultures, the significance of the commandment to respect "dignity" and "piety" has nowadays become more unclear. Modern pluralism makes guidelines of behavior questionable, for example concerning burial, autopsy, or the use of body parts for transplant, scientific or teaching purposes, if this has not been legitimized by the "self-determination right" of the individual. At the same time, the "informed consent" appears as a passepartout for any kind of handling a corpse, even though it may be controversial, as in a commercial public exhibition. The interdisciplinary volume, which resulted from the 2nd Göttinger Symposium of the Center for Medical Law, deals with the wide field of "correct" intercourse with a corpse from the perspective of theology and medicine philosophy, medical law, anatomy and law medicine. Während früheren Generationen der Umgang mit den sterblichen Überresten als essentieller Bestandteil ihrer jeweiligen Kultur weithin vorgegeben war, ist der Bedeutungsgehalt des Gebots zur Achtung von „Würde“ und „Pietät“ heute mehr denn je unklar geworden. Der moderne Pluralismus lässt Verhaltensvorgaben etwa bei der Bestattung, der Obduktion oder der Verwendung von Körperteilen zu Transplantations-, wissenschaftlichen oder Lehrzwecken fragwürdig erscheinen, wenn dies nicht durch das „Selbstbestimmungsrecht“ des Einzelnen legitimiert worden ist. Zugleich erscheint der „informed consent“ als Passepartout für jeden beliebigen Umgang mit Leichnamen, mag er wie bei einer kommerziell geprägten öffentlichen Zurschaustellung gesamtgesellschaftlich auch noch so kontrovers sein. Der interdisziplinäre, aus dem 2. Göttinger Symposium des Zentrums für Medizinrecht hervorgegangene Band behandelt das weite Themenfeld des „richtigen“ Umgangs mit dem Leichnam aus Sicht von Theologie und Medizinphilosophie, von Medizinrecht, Anatomie und Rechtsmedizin.

Rainer Hugener Books of Life. Commemorating the Dead in Medieval SwitzerlandHow were religious practices of remembering the deceased connected to the admin-istration of landholdings and the writing of history in the Middle Ages? Based on intertextual relations between necrologies, rent-rolls, and chronicles from Swiss regions, this study shows how commemorating the dead required new techniques of writing that were not only meant to promote salvation, but also helped enforce local lordship. By celebrating the anniversaries of battles and other crucial events, the authorities of the Swiss cantons propagated a historical concept of identity which continues to influence Switzerland's self-perception even today. Rainer Hugener emphasizes the role of religious commemoration for the development of "modern" bureaucracy and offers a new perspective on the founding myths of the Swiss Con-federacy. The book is completed by an exhaustive catalogue of more than 1000 pre-modern necrologies from Swiss monasteries, cathedrals, collegiate and parish churches.

Die Toten spielen eine gesellschaftspolitisch und kulturtheoretisch zentrale Rolle - sei es etwa in der Erinnerungspolitik oder hinsichtlich der Frage, wer wo bestattet und wie betrauert werden kann. Die Beiträger*innen aus Literaturwissenschaft und Politischer Theorie laden zu potenziell breiteren Lesarten einer »Politik der Toten« ein. Sie fragen nach der Möglichkeit, die Toten nicht nur als Objekte des Umgangs, sondern als Akteur*innen zu begreifen, deren Status in der Gesellschaft immer neu ausgelotet werden muss. Damit liefern sie neue Perspektiven auf die kulturellen und politischen Funktionen dieser besonderen Gruppe.

The original circumstances in which archaeological remains came into being are crucial for the interpretation of the material record. Burials are first and foremost a result of a very traumatic event in a society - the death of one of its members. It is due to this context that burials represent a primary source for understanding past societies' attitudes towards death.Barbara Hausmair traces death concepts and their influence on mortuary rituals in early medieval communities in what is today known as southwest Germany. Using the cemeteries of Bad Mingolsheim, Horb-Altheim and Weingarten as ca

Foreign judges The Influence of Swiss and German-Austrian judges upon jurisprudence in the principality of Liechtenstein, 1939-45 The principality of Liechtenstein has been a small country possessing limited resources. In matters of jurisprudence this meant adopting Austrian and Swiss legal codes and, along with local lawyers, electing attorneys from both neighboring countries as judges in Liechtenstein. While this practice worked during times of peace, it became tenuous during the era of National Socialism, and connected to the problem of potential national socialist influence upon the appointment of judges and on the practice of law. The annexation of Austria by the “Third Reich” turned Austrian judges working in Liechtenstein into “German” judges, who dispensed justice according to Nazi law in their home-land, but according to Liechtenstein law within the principality. Can a political influence upon these judges be shown? Did a national socialist spirit pervade Liechtenstein jurisprudence and the laws enacted during that time? What was the stance taken by the judges who were Swiss? The author discusses the peculiarities of justice in Liechtenstein during the Second World War.
