The following formats are possible: • Intensive research workshops • Short term research stays (for young as well as established researchers) • Research-oriented teaching / short intensive graduate seminars • Mobility for the preparation of joint research proposals The supported activities should have a clearly defined focus and serve as a catalyst for the development of new joint projects. The activities can take place in Berlin or in Saint Petersburg; participants should include both senior and junior faculty/researchers of FUB and SPSU. Maximum funding per proposal is € 10.000 (equivalent in roubles respectively).

  • Paris: Capital of Cultural Theory and Postmodernism
    Paris: Capital of Cultural Theory and Postmodernism Matt Evans, Comp. Lit. Major ’08 Paris is most astounding in the early morning, when the daily clamor sleeps and one is left alone with the city’s monumental architecture and relentlessly inspiring occidental design. It is at these moments when you are left gaping at the most stunning testimony of the fatter portion of modern civilization’s aesthetic achievements. As the bakers knead away and the markets prop their first tents, you can seamlessly recall all the pre-war homage to the City of Lights: Hemmingway’s A Movable Feast, Orwell’s Down and Out, or Stein’s salon utopias. Words no longer seem necessary, for it all seems to make sense on a proto-linguistic level, which appropriately enough was one of the artistic visions of that particular time. There were countless times when I had this early morning to myself, and they remain beyond worth. However, if this is the Paris you except and desire when you go there to study, you will be disappointed. Because although Paris is most astounding in the early morning—especially for those curious travelers who despise the constant chatter of snap shots and wailing tour guides—it is only “morning” for so long. The rest of the day is quite different. For so long Paris has been a destination to consume culture and history. After all, the Parisians play their roles well if it means that they can take advantage of eager travelers and study-abroad students. But much of the city, if approached in this manner, will dishearten, and furthermore consume the countless visitors it receives daily.

  • Calibration of Artificial Athlete Berlin/Stuttgart Summary Of
    Calibration of Artificial Athlete Berlin/Stuttgart Summary of Calibration Series Performed in 2000 1. Introduction and Rational The Artificial Athletes Berlin and Stuttgart were developed by the FMPA Stuttgart (Otto-Graf- Institut) of the University of Stuttgart around 1970. The tests, which are specified in the German standards DIN 18035-6 "Sports Grounds; Synthetic Surfaced Areas" and DIN 18032-2 "Sports Halls; Sports Surfaces – Requirements, Testing, Maintenance",. and have been adopted by various national and international bodies (FIH, IAAF, ASTM, ITF, CEN, FIFA, UEFA). Over the years, especially the past 10 years, modifications to these DIN standards have taken place, which were at times inconsistent, resulting in major questions and concerns regarding the proper design of the test apparatus, the test procedure, the evaluation of measurements and the accuracy of the test results. The IAAF Accredited Labs of the ISSS felt that the resolution of these uncertainties was crucial and, based on the lack of response by the DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung = German Institute of Standardization) to professional advice, took the initiative themselves to clarify the problems involved. As a first step, the ISSS called for papers analysing the structure of the Artificial Athletes and providing solutions for the pending problems. The submitted papers were received from Mark Harrison (GB), Dr. Konrad Binder (A), Dr. John Dunlop (AU) and Hans J. Kolitzus (D). The papers were published on ISSS's website www.isss.de. In a meeting held in Le Mans (F) in September 1999, the papers and problems were discussed in depth and a unanimous resolution was passed covering all open problems.
