  • THE PROBLEM of GENERATIONS As to Be Capable of Choosing Rationally the Form of Government Most Suitable for Himself
    HOW THE PROBLEM STANDS AT THE MOMENT 277 forms of historical being. But if the ultimate human relationships are changed, the existence of man as we have come to understand it must cease altogether-culture, creativeness, tradition must all disappear, or must at least appear in a totally different light. Hume actually experimented with the idea of a modification of such ultimate data. Suppose, he said, the type of succession of human generations to be completely altered to resemble that of CHAPTER VII a butterfly or caterpillar, so that the older generation disappears at one stroke and the new one is born all at once. Further, suppose man to be of such a high degree of mental development THE PROBLEM OF GENERATIONS as to be capable of choosing rationally the form of government most suitable for himself. (This, of course, was the main problem I. HOW THE PROBLEM STANDS AT THE MOMENT of Hume's time.)

  • Oktoberfest 2011: a Somewhat Different Safe Haven
    15 September 2011 Economics & FI/FX Research Economic Flash Oktoberfest 2011: A somewhat different safe haven It’s that time of year again. This Saturday, at the stroke of 12 noon, the mayor of Munich will ceremoniously tap the first keg of beer and declare "O'zapft is" ("It is tapped"). The world’s largest fair will then open its doors to the public. The Oktoberfest traces its roots back to the festivities held to celebrate the marriage of Bavaria’s Crown Prince Ludwig to Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen on 12 October 1810. Since then, the Ok- toberfest has been held every year on the Theresienwiese (or Wiesn for short), named in honor of the Crown Princess – except for 24 times, when it was canceled due to epidemics and the two world wars. This year, the event is being repeated for the 178th time. Last year, the Oktoberfest bicentennial marked a new record for beer con- sumption (see chart). The temporary slump in beer sales during the finan- cial market crisis and the subsequent deep recession was therefore quickly reversed. However, the figures for the bicentennial were biased somewhat by special factors. First, the Oktoberfest was extended by one day, i.e. 17 days instead of the usual 16. Second, capacities were expanded: There were two new traditional beer tents. As a result, the number of available seats increased from roughly 105,000 by over 8,000. But even adjusted for these effects, the recovery was substantial. Hence, the capacities were well utilized. On the final weekend, access to the entire Wiesn site had to be shut off for several hours due to overcrowding.

Oktoberfest History It began with the Royal Wedding on 12 October 1810 of King Ludwig I and Princess Therese of Saxony-Hildburg- hausen. The original "Oktoberfest" occurred in Munich, on October 12, 1810: For the commemoration of their mar- riage, Crown Prince Ludwig (later King Ludwig I) and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen (namesake of the Theresienwiese festival grounds) organized a great horse race (the marriage took place on October 12; the horse race on October 17 — therefore, there are different dates named as being the first Oktoberfest). The Oktoberfest is a sixteen-day festival held each year in Munich, Bavaria, Germany during late September (and running to early October). It is one of the most famous events in the city and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year, and is an enjoyable event with an important part of Bavarian culture. Many other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modeled after the Munich event.

  • The Culture of the Europeans
    Donald Sassoon The Culture of the Europeans «HarperCollins» Sassoon D. The Culture of the Europeans / D. Sassoon — «HarperCollins», A magisterial narrative account of the creation and consumption of all forms of ‘culture’ across the European continent over the last two hundred years.This compelling, wide-ranging and hugely ambitious book offers, for the first time ever, an integrated history of the culture produced and consumed by Europeans since 1800, and follows its transformation from an elite activity to a mass market – from lending libraries to the internet, from the first public concerts to music downloads.In itself a cultural tour de force, the book covers high and low culture, readers and writers, audiences and prima donnas, Rossini and hip hop, Verdi and the Beatles, Zola and Tintin, Walter Scott and Jules Verne, the serialised novel of the 19th-century as well as ‘Dallas’ and ‘Coronation Street’. Included in its vast scope are fairytales, bestsellers, crime and sci-fi, non-fiction, magazines, newspapers, comic strips, plays, opera, musicals, pop music, sound recording, films, documentaries, radio and television.A continent-wide survey, this majestic work includes discussions of rock music under communism, Polish and Danish bestsellers, French melodramas and German cabarets, fascist and Soviet cinema. It examines the ways culture travels – how it is produced, transformed, adapted, absorbed, sold and consumed; how it is shaped by audiences and politics, and controlled by laws and conventional morality; why some countries excel in particular genres. It examines the anxiety and attraction felt by Europeans towards American culture, and asks to what extent European culture has become Americanised.Stylishly written, devoid of jargon, this is global non-fiction narrative at its best.Note that it has not been possible to include the same picture content that appeared in the original print version.

In explaining the formation of Germany, the orthodox view holds that these so-called Mittel- and Kleinstaaten existed largely at the whim of either Vienna or Berlin, and their policies, in turn, were dictated or shaped by these two power centres. According to this reading of German history, a bipolar sociopolitical structure existed, whereby the Mittelstaaten would declare their allegiances to either the Habsburg or Hohenzollern crowns. Te present work rejects this model of German history, through the use of the case study of the southwestern Kingdom of Württemberg.

  • “The Art of Brewing Is to Use Only Some Ingredients and Raw Materials
    Opinion: Craft beer will never have a seat at Oktoberfest Germany’s 500-year-old beer purity laws keep the real Oktoberfest in Munich from being trendy By: Jason Notte Sept 16, 2016 12:00 AM - With modern U.S. craft beer dating back little more than 40 years, it’s tough to grasp the importance of centuries of brewing tradition. That is where Munich’s Oktoberfest and Germany’s Reinheitsgebot beer purity law serve as a reminder of not only the importance of those traditions, but also of aligning them with modern context. The 16-day Oktoberfest celebration in Munich, which kicks off Sept. 17 this year, dates to 1810 and the wedding of King Ludwig and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen. On the same Theresienwiese fields that hosted those celebrations, Munich welcomes millions of visitors to both the giant gala that the event has become and to the museum-like festival that’s been hosted on the southern end of the grounds in recent years to bring the event back to its roots. “The art of brewing is to use only some ingredients and raw materials. For us, it’s an extra challenge to create such a diversity of beer styles within the [German] beer purity law.” Martin Zuber, Paulaner managing director At the center of all of it, however, is a whole lot of beer produced by six Munich brewers: Spaten, Löwenbräu, Augustiner-Bräu, Hofbräu-München, Paulaner and Hacker-Pschorr. They produce the “Munich beer” that was once an amber-bodied, sweet Märzen — brewed in March and lagered until the festival’s kickoff.
