    Open AccessThomas MeierARTICLEArchaeological Dialogues2017Referencias: 7

    In a way - as the authors admit themselves - Kerstin Hofmann's and Philipp Stockhammer's paper is very German. Most of their paper reads like a long catalogue, collecting and arranging as many recent GSA contributions to anglophone debates as the authors could find. In the end their catalogue sums up to the impressive number of around four hundred references

  • The fight against the Swiss Yenish and the 'Children of the open road' campaign

    Open AccessThomas MeierARTICLERomani Studies2008Citada por: 2Referencias: 1

    In order to eradicate vagrancy in Switzerland, between 1926 and 1973 children of Yenish origin were systematically taken from their parents and placed with foster families, in homes and institutions. With the support of the authorities and under the auspices of the renowned Pro Juventute foundation, the campaign was carried out by the so-called Hilfswerk für die Kinder der Landstrasse ('Relief Organisation for the Children of the open road'). Thi…

  • There is no archaeology but European archaeology

    Open AccessThomas MeierARTICLEArchaeological Dialogues2008

    To start with, I would like to emphasize that I very much agree with most points of Kristian Kristiansen's analysis of the European state of archaeology. In my view he is totally right in observing a turn from the global perspective to a national and local focus, expressed not least by narrowing language capabilities and restricted citation networks, both convincingly described in his paper. Furthermore he is right, I think, that archaeology has …

  • Social Structures and Social Relations - An Archaeological and Anthropological Examination of three Early Medieval Separate Burial Sites in Bavaria

    A Czermak, Anja Ledderose et al.ARTICLEAnthropologischer Anzeiger2006Citada por: 6

    As part of an interdisciplinary cooperation, three early medieval separated burial sites from central Bavaria were subjected to archaeological and anthropological examinations. Separated burial sites are probably an expression of social stratification. This paper focuses on two characteristic aspects of these separated burial sites: (1) structure of the site, and (2) biological manifestation of a social upper class. The separated burial grounds E…

  • The White Logic

    Thomas Meier, Thomas K Meier et al.ARTICLEAmerican Literature1995

    There are no second acts in American lives. F. Scott Fitzgerald's famous pronouncement, an epitaph for his own foreshortened career, points to a pattern of imaginative blight common among writers of the Lost Generation. As John W. Crowley shows in this study, excessive drinking was a crucial influence on the frequently diminished fortunes of these writers. Indeed, the modernists - especially the men - were a decidedly drunken lot. Taking account …

    Along with Ernest Hemingway, William Saroyan, winner of a Pulitzer Prize in drama for The Time of Your Life and an Academy Award for the screenplay of The Human Comedy, was the most well-known American writer of the 1930s and 1940s. Lawrence Lee and Barry Gifford heard Saroyan's story first-hand from Carol Matthau, the wife he rejected; the son and daughter he alternately smothered and pushed away; and colleagues like Artie Shaw, Celeste Holm, an…
