Influence of Service Quality and Company Image on Customer Satisfaction
Authors: Jannah Dara Fitria , Larashati Irena , Dwiyanisa Ashila , Megawati Imelda
Published: May 2024

Banking, as a financial organization primarily engaged in the collection and redistribution of public funds, must establish a robust banking system. Consequently, it is necessary to regulate and supervise banking operations to ensure the adoption of sound banking practices. Since the implementation of the OJK Law on 22 November 2011, the oversight of financial services institutions in Indonesia has shifted from multiple institutions to a single institution, the OJK. Previously, banking supervision was conducted by Bank Indonesia, while Bapepam handled the supervision of capital markets and other financial institutions. The objective of this study is to ascertain customer happiness, which is influenced by the quality of service and the organization's image.
This research employs the descriptive and verification analytic approach, focusing on the 92 respondents who are customers of Bank Negara Indonesia. The processing and research are categorized into two distinct types: secondary data from the company and primary data from the questionnaire responses; in-depth analysis is also done, which seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of how service quality and corporate image impact customer happiness.
According to the research findings, Service Quality is pretty good, with an average rating of 3.23. Company Image is also considered quite good, with an average rating of 3.18. Similarly, Customer Satisfaction falls into the pretty good area. Its mean value is 3.10. Service Quality (X1) significantly influences Customer Satisfaction (Y) with a total influence of 0.334.
Similarly, Company Image (X2) also significantly influences Customer Satisfaction (Y) with a total influence of 0.484. When both Service Quality (X1) and Company Image (X2) are considered together, they have a combined influence on Customer Satisfaction (Y) with a determination (R2) of 0.818 or 81.8%. The remaining 18.2% of the influence on Customer Satisfaction (Y) is attributed to other variables that were not examined. The research findings confirm a strong correlation between Service Quality and Company Image Customer Satisfaction in a banking company in Garut.
Strategic Digital Information Operations (SDIOs)
Authors:   Deakin University Alfred Deakin Institute for Citizenship and Globalisation, Yilmaz Ihsan , Akbarzadeh Shahram , Bashirov Galib
Published: May 2024

In this paper, we introduce the concept of “Strategic Digital Information Operations” (SDIOs), discuss the tactics and practices of the SDIOs, explain the main political goals of state and non-state actors in engaging with SDIOs at home and abroad, and suggest avenues for new research. We argue that the concept of the SDIOs presents a useful framework to discuss all forms of digital manipulation at both domestic and international levels organized by either state or non-state actors. While the literature has examined the military-political impacts of the SDIOs, we still don’t know much about societal issues that the SDIOs influence such as emotive political mobilization, intergroup relations, social cohesion, trust, and emotional resonance among target audiences.

Same-sex couples in European private international law – finding a path through the labyrinth

This article explores the treatment of same-sex spouses and same-sex registered partners in European private international law (PIL). The discussion encompasses national PIL frameworks in EU and non-EU countries, as well as EU PIL rules. The aim is to identify legal obstacles facing mobile same-sex couples as they move around Europe, and to highlight the inadequacies and anomalies in the existing law. It is argued that the extension of the PIL rules traditionally applied to different-sex marriage may be problematic for same-sex couples. The article also seeks to analyze the PIL responses to domestic laws in transition (in adopting registered partnership – and in progressing from registered partnership to marriage equality). The complex implications (and interactions) of EU PIL instruments are also scrutinised. The discussion concludes with an assessment of how existing problems may be resolved (with a particular focus on human rights jurisprudence and the EU free movement policy).

O manejo integrado de pragas vem sendo cada vez mais empregado no mundo e engloba vários métodos para controle de pragas, como controle químico, biológico com a introdução de inimigos naturais, comportamental como o uso de armadilhas, genético, cultural como rotação de culturas e podas, varietal como variedades resistentes. O fungo entomopatogênico Beauveria bassiana é um inimigo natural de vários insetos considerados pragas agrícolas no mundo e no Brasil existem mais de 50 marcas registradas que controlam importantes pragas como a mosca branca (Bemisia tabaci), moleque de bananeira (Cosmopolites sordidus), ácaro rajado (Tetranychus urticae), cigarrinha do milho (Dalbulus maidis), gorgulho-da-cana (Sphenophorus levis) e a broca do café Hypothenemus hampei. Os insetos da família Coccinellidae são considerados como besouros benéficos como as joaninhas, pois estas se alimentam de pulgões, cochonilhas e ovos desses e de outros insetos, sendo importante agente de controle biológico. Entretanto a joaninha exótica Harmonia axyridis presente em nossas plantações pode competir com as joaninhas locais, podendo causar desequilíbrio ecológico, mas por causa de suas características de predador voraz de ovos de insetos e pulgões ainda é tida como benéfica. Nosso objetivo com este trabalho foi avaliar os efeitos sobre a sobrevivência e ovipostura da joaninha Harmonia axyridis da aplicação direta e indireta do fungo B. bassiana. Nossos resultados demonstram que a utilização desse fungo onde a joaninha está presente deve ser evitada.

Mutluluk, Pozitif Psikoloji ve Akış: Sara Ahmed Üzerinden Pozitif Dergisi Analizi
Authors: Tunç Subaşi Selda
Published: May 2024

Mutluluk, Batı’da savaşlar, açlık, salgın ve kıtlık gibi yaşamın felaketleri ve belirsizliklerinden kurtulanların Tanrılar tarafından kutsanmasıyla sonuçlanan bir şans ve ödül anlamına gelmekteyken, Aydınlanma sonrası bireysel irade ve eylem sonucu bir performans olarak görülmeye başlanmıştır. Mutluluğun klasik psikolojinin araştırma konuları içinde önemli bir yer işgal ettiği söylenemez. Ancak 1990’ların sonuna doğru psikoloji disiplininin yeni bir alanı olarak ortaya çıkan pozitif psikoloji, mutluluk kavramına olan ilgiyi arttırmıştır. Pozitif psikoloji, odağı olumsuz duygulardan olumlu duygulara çevirmiştir. Bu yeni disiplin oldukça ilgi görmüş hem akademik hem de popüler yazında karşılık bulmuştur. Küresel çapta yaygınlaşmasının yanısıra Türkiye’de de popüler kültürel ürünleri etkilemiştir. Bu kültürel çıktılardan biri olan Pozitif: Kişisel Gelişim Rehberiniz dergisinde (2013-) mutluluk, pozitif psikoloji ve kişisel gelişim temalarıyla ilgili çok sayıda yazı yayınlanmıştır. Ne var ki pozitif psikolojinin mutluluk kavramına yaklaşımı önemli birtakım sorunlar içermektedir. Bu sorunlar, Britanyalı-Avustralyalı feminist düşünür Sara Ahmed’in toplumsal bağlamın önemini vurgulayan mutluluk nesneleri kavramı aracılığıyla gösterilebilir. Bu çalışmadaki amaç Pozitif: Kişisel Gelişim Rehberiniz dergisindeki mutluluk kavramını akış metaforu üzerinden ele almaktır. Çalışmada yöntem olarak eleştirel söylem analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucuna göre, akışın ürettiği, mutluluğa yönlendirdiği nesneler, gelişkin bir bireysellik vurgusuyla toplumsal olanı feda etmiştir.

Published: May 2024

Halit Ziya Uşaklıgil’in, İzmir’in ayrıcalıklı ailelerinden birine mensup isimsiz, yetişkin bir erkek anlatıcının bakış açısından aktarılan “Dilhoş Dadı” öyküsü, anlatıcının Dilhoş adlı Afrika kökenli dadısını hatırlama biçimine ve dadısıyla duygudaşlık kurma çabasına odaklanır. Bir yandan da “ben anlatıcı”nın retrospektif bakışı aracılığıyla dadı üzerinden bir büyüme ve toplumsallaşma anlatısı kurgular. Anlatıcının dadısına dair hatıraları, çocukluktan yetişkinliğe geçtiği aşamada kültürel ve ırksal bir fark söylemini nasıl yavaş yavaş benimsediğini açığa vurur. Ben anlatıcının bakışı dadısının nasıl adım adım korku ve merak uyandıran “öteki”ne dönüştüğünü açıklarken, ötekileştiren bu bakışın büyümeye ve toplumsallaşmaya paralel olarak geliştiğini gözler önüne serer. Anlatıcının Dilhoş’a dair hatıralarından söz ederken kullandığı duygu repertuvarı, Dilhoş’a ilişkin önyargıları açığa vurarak kurulmaya çalışılan duygudaşlığın sınırlılığına işaret eder.
Scratch and Mark: Affective Intermediality Towards Mathilde
Authors: Yılmaz Cansu
Published: May 2024

Claire Denis’ cinema relies on in-betweenness of the film medium, combining it with other art forms and media through sensations. Towards Mathilde (2005) documents the correspondence between the director’s own work and that of the famous choreographer, Mathilde Monnier, reflecting on artistic expression, movement, and embodiment with the senses. This article explores the intricate texture of affective intermediality within the film. Interweaving the theories of affect and intermediality within film studies, this analysis delves into the ways in which Denis embodies a wide range of intermedial elements to inspire emotional responses. Through a detailed examination of the use of cinematography, sound design, and music, it uncovers how Denis engages in different arts and media to create a deeply affective cinematic experience. By examining the interplay between visual, auditory, and sense in dance and cinema as two distinct but intertwined art forms, this article aims to illuminate the affective intermediality at work in the film, offering insights into the complex ways in which cinema and dance can move and communicate emotion.

Layered Realities
Authors: Sharma Shailza
Published: May 2024

Considering the traditions of writing as palpable forms of resistance adopted by political prisoners in India against state power, this chapter analyses prison writings to construct their accounts of the (political) self, the gendered nature of prisons, and the violence/control associated with prison life. In my inquiry, not only do I consider prisons as a terrain of violence and control, but also as sites of “political confrontations” (Bargu, 2014). These political confrontations take place within the contours of operation of anti-terror laws in India, and its nexus with state violence. By rethinking the carceral through the medium of interpretation of prisoners’ writings within its specific contexts, this chapter has tried to tease out instances of prisoners’ resistance and condemnation of the control of their private lives and ideologies.
Nicolas Nabokov and the Cultural Cold War
Authors: Horowitz Joseph
Published: May 2024

Nicolas Nabokov, a Russian expatriate, was the key cultural policy maker for the Congress of Cultural Freedom: the US Cultural Cold War propaganda arm, covertly funded by the CIA. Nabokov organized conferences and wrote articles. His disparagement of his archenemy, Dmitri Shostakovich, and of Soviet musical life generally, was exaggerated and, in retrospect, insupportable. He viewpoint aligned with that of his friend Arthur Schlesinger, as in Schlesinger’s book The Vital Center (1949).
Counter Memories
Authors: Mennel Barbara
Published: May 2024

“Counter Memories” discusses the three films Friedrich completed during the 1980s. The section argues that The Ties That Bind (1984), Damned If You Don’t (1987), and Sink or Swim (1990) interrogate the function of memory for the relation of private and public history. The Ties That Bind and Sink or Swim trace Friedrich’s memories of her mother and father, respectively. Damned If You Don’t reflects cultural memories of a generation of lesbians who came of age in the American postwar period. The three films blend narrative and documentary in an experimental film language that mimics the function of memory itself, using associative connection, fragments, and reverse chronology. They employ Friedrich’s autobiography as an entryway into social relations.
“Civilization” versus “Savagery”
Authors: Khan Tariq D.
Published: May 2024

This chapter discusses how the mythology and ideology that accompanied the “Indian wars” became the template for how the state would understand and deal with anarchism and the “labor problem.” US police departments, relatively new on the scene and still struggling to gain legitimacy in the eyes of the public, relied on this mythological and ideological structure to bolster their authority, casting themselves as the heroic “frontier” Indian killers and casting the anarchist “reds” as the “savages.” Criminology and “race science” in the era likewise developed through colonial militarization, war, and genocide, as US and European violence against Indigenous peoples became the context for how anthropologists, criminologists, and law enforcers made sense of and dealt with urban proletarian insurgency.
Do All the Good You Can
Authors: Smith Gary Scott
Published: May 2024

Hillary Rodham Clinton’s Methodist faith has played a substantial role in her life, and religious factors have been very important in her work as Arkansas’s first lady, the nation’s first lady, a US senator, secretary of state, and a two-time presidential candidate. She has done more than any other US politician to publicize the problems and promote the rights of women and children around the world. Through all these activities, Clinton has blazed a trail for other women to follow. While numerous factors have shaped Clinton’s personality, sense of calling, and political agenda, her faith has contributed significantly. Although her religious views have been frequently denounced by the leaders of the religious right, they are shared by millions of mainline Protestants, including United Methodists. Clinton’s faith is more deeply rooted and fervent than many supporters, opponents, pundits, and biographers have recognized. Throughout her life, Clinton has been driven by a dictum often attributed to John Wesley, the founder of Methodism: “Do all the good you can.” Throughout her life, Clinton’s faith has helped her cope with challenges and difficulties that might have otherwise devastated her or at least prevented her from continuing to serve in the political arena. Few Americans have been as mocked for their moral convictions or have had the sincerity of their faith questioned as much as Clinton.
A Rational Faith
Authors: Handley George B.
Published: May 2024

This chapter is dedicated to Lowell Bennion’s understanding of religious education. Inspired by Christian modernists and the thought of Max Weber, he argues why Latter-day Saints should pursue an education. The chapter explores his carefully developed hermeneutics of reading scripture and interpreting divine revelation in which revelation is continual and a rational faith is possible. Since both secular and spiritual ways of knowing depend in various degrees on both faith and reason, which need each other, he was confident that harmony was possible. He insisted that a deliberate integration of religious ideas and values into the full range of disciplines and ideas in the academy and in the entirety of lived experience would make faith viable in the modern world.
“Rest and Power”
Authors: Huber Hannah L.
Published: May 2024

This chapter elucidates Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s hierarchy of rest and deprivation in her self-published literary journal the Forerunner (1909–16). Gilman espouses the social evolutionary value of brainpower and establishes echelons of labor forms that require more or less repose for renewed energy. While Gilman’s theories were intended to empower working women, they were imbued with problematic doctrines of her day, for she ascribes restorative rest only to those ranked by categories of contemporary social demographics that are better able to carry out national progress. For Gilman, domesticity is atavistic, a threat to white female social evolution. In her utopian narratives, white female advancement necessitates the relegation of minoritized women to domestic labor. Thus, Gilman’s liberation efforts in first-wave feminism were inseparable from racial exploitation.
As One That Hath a Familiar Spirit
Authors: Spencer Joseph M.
Published: May 2024

This final chapter brings the investigation of the writings of Nephi within the Book of Mormon to a close and draws conclusions for the whole study of Isaiah in the Book of Mormon. It considers the third of three Isaiah texts privileged in Nephi’s writings. Those writings culminate with a playful reworking of Isaiah 29 and its references to the words of a sealed book. Often discussed, this reworking has been largely misunderstood, usually taken to predict just Martin Harris’s consultation with scholars about translating Joseph Smith’s gold plates. Read carefully and alongside nineteenth-century uses of Isaiah, it instead makes an argument that the Book of Mormon be received on the prophetic grounds of faith rather than on the scientific grounds of evidence.

Objectives

To investigate the distribution and prevalence of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) antibody (as evidence of past infection) in northern Victoria following the 2022 Japanese encephalitis outbreak, seeking to identify groups of people at particular risk of infection; to investigate the distribution and prevalence of antibodies to two related flaviviruses, Murray Valley encephalitis virus (MVEV) and West Nile virus Kunjin subtype (KUNV).

Study design

Cross‐sectional serosurvey (part of a national JEV serosurveillance program).

Setting

Three northern Victorian local public health units (Ovens Murray, Goulburn Valley, Loddon Mallee), 8 August – 1 December 2022.

Participants

People opportunistically recruited at pathology collection centres and by targeted recruitment through community outreach and advertisements. People vaccinated against or who had been diagnosed with Japanese encephalitis were ineligible for participation, as were those born in countries where JEV is endemic.

Main outcome measures

Seroprevalence of JEV IgG antibody, overall and by selected factors of interest (occupations, water body exposure, recreational activities and locations, exposure to animals, protective measures).

Results

813 participants were recruited (median age, 59 years [interquartile range, 42–69 years]; 496 female [61%]); 27 were JEV IgG‐seropositive (3.3%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.2–4.8%) (median age, 73 years [interquartile range, 63–78 years]; 13 female [48%]); none were IgM‐seropositive. JEV IgG‐seropositive participants were identified at all recruitment locations, including those without identified cases of Japanese encephalitis. The only risk factors associated with JEV IgG‐seropositivity were age (per year: prevalence odds ratio [POR], 1.07; 95% CI, 1.03–1.10) and exposure to feral pigs (POR, 21; 95% CI, 1.7–190). The seroprevalence of antibody to MVEV was 3.0% (95% CI, 1.9–4.5%; 23 of 760 participants), and of KUNV antibody 3.3% (95% CI, 2.1–4.8%; 25 of 761).

Conclusions

People living in northern Victoria are vulnerable to future JEV infection, but few risk factors are consistently associated with infection. Additional prevention strategies, including expanding vaccine eligibility, may be required to protect people in this region from Japanese encephalitis.

Dati personali e contratto: un ossimoro apparente.
Authors: Tosi Emilio
Published: May 2024

L'articolo si concentra sul dibattuto e controverso tema del valore economico e della contrattualizzazione dei dati personali nel quadro giuridico della tutela dei diritti fondamentali della persona e della libertà di circolazione dei dati. I profili di valorizzazione dei dati personali emergono anche nel nuovo Decreto Legislativo 173/2021, che aggiorna il Codice del Consumo in esecuzione della Direttiva UE 2019/770. Inoltre, l'articolo evidenzia la doppia natura personale-economica dei dati riferiti alla persona fisica, e di conseguenza, il consenso al trattamento dei dati nella sua doppia natura, autorizzativa-contrattuale.
The Origins of the Inka Empire
Authors: Ogburn Dennis E.
Published: May 2024

In chapter 6, “The Origins of the Inka Empire: Elite Agency in the Competition for Power,” Ogburn examines the causes of the creation of the Inka Empire. Previous analyses of the origins of the Inka Empire have focused on a number of causal factors, primarily economic in nature, but also including ritual motivations. However, these have not fully explained the origins of empire and have omitted the consideration of other relevant motivations. This chapter uses a critical analysis of ethnohistorical evidence pointing to cultural dynamics that were key to Inka expansion. Despite their bias, the Spanish recorded the political and cultural dynamics leading up to the creation of empire. In particular, the absence of primogeniture as the norm for succession and the emphasis on prowess in warfare as a primary qualification for leadership set the stage for the creation of empire as it provoked competition among Inka nobility. The competition for power among those elites and their supporting factions motivated succeeding rulers to change the goals of warfare from raiding to conquest and to the long-term political domination of defeated enemies This emphasis on a “warrior culture” spurred sporadic campaigns of conquest, and heavily influenced state policies of imperial governance.
Lessons Learned from Four Decades of Citizen Science at the Nautical Archaeology Society
Authors: Knott Peta , Beattie-Edwards Mark
Published: May 2024

Over the last four decades, the Nautical Archaeology Society has engaged with citizen science through formal projects, community archaeology fieldwork, supporting members’ research projects, and with our accredited international Education Programme. This chapter highlights more recent accounts of citizen science projects that build on earlier community archaeology schemes focused on the underwater cultural heritage. Some of these examples include the long-running Big Anchor Project and the Adopt-a-Wreck scheme, the still-developing Wreck Licensee Succession project, as well as the more recently established Members’ Research Group and the ongoing community fieldwork at Sandwich Flats. Using collective experience, the authors explain some of the hits and misses in engaging the public to provide inspiration or sage warnings for future work in creating a new generation of citizen scientists.
Contexts and Meanings of Pre-Hispanic Underwater Offerings Discovered in the Volcanic Lakes of Nevado de Toluca, Mexico
Authors: Bautista Iris del Rocío Hernández , Sánchez Roberto Junco
Published: May 2024

Nevado de Toluca is a volcano located in the central region of Mexico. At 4,200 meters above sea level, there are two lakes inside its crater with evidence of rituals and pre-Hispanic offerings. Archaeological evidence, recorded by both underwater and terrestrial archaeological practices, indicates a close symbolic relationship between water, meteorological forces, and the concept of the sacred Mesoamerican mountain. Due to the physical and chemical characteristics of the water, organic materials have been exceptionally preserved, like copal, maguey leaves, pine leaves, basketwork, and plant fibers. In this chapter, we present the context and meanings of these offerings to understand the ritual practices in their entirety considering ecological environment, pre-Hispanic worldview, and the relationship of human groups with water.
Balsa Wood Rafts and Chinchorro Fishing
Authors: Munita Felipe Rubio , San Martín Nicolás Lira , Rojas Victoria Castro
Published: May 2024

Archaeological research on the human groups that inhabited the coast of Arica (extreme north of Chile, Atacama Desert) has recorded the presence of miniature three-beam rafts as offerings in funerary contexts. From this evidence, we explore in this chapter the properties of nautical technologies for the appropriation of marine resources belonging to the populations that occupied the coast of Arica during the Late Intermediate Period (AD 1000–1400). This phenomenon is approached from a technological and functional analysis of the miniatures of three-beam rafts from the excavations of the archaeological sites of Playa Miller 3 and Playa Miller 4. Along with this, we developed a participatory ethnographic observation survey with the Chinchorrero fishing community of Arica, Chile, who still use beam rafts for their fishing activities. We have used the morphological attributes of the miniature three-beam rafts assuming that they could be representing a similarity with the life-size boats when considering their detailed nautical manufacturing details.
The Maqāmāt Ship
Authors: de Ruyter Mick
Published: May 2024

The iconic ship illustration in the thirteenth-century Paris Maqāmāt manuscript is one of the most significant individual images used in historical maritime archaeology of the Indian Ocean. This painting was used as the primary iconographic source for interpretations of the Belitung wreck, the design and construction of two full-sized reconstructions, and more widely in the study of Arab and Indian Ocean seafaring in general. This Maqāmāt manuscript painting is prominent within a visual corpus devoid of other significant archaeological, iconographic, or documentary sources describing ships in such apparent entirety, although this inherent rarity complicates the criticism required of historical visual sources. This chapter compares this famous image to other lesser known Maqāmāt ship, and with watercraft in contemporary Arab and Persian manuscripts and shadow theater. Consideration of the intended audience and consumption of these images gives further context, showing how the Paris Maqāmāt painting has often been misinterpreted. In this way, the technological particularism of nautical construction methods, features, and form concedes to a more social consideration of a visual artifact that reveals the circulation of people, ideas, and things in the historical Indian Ocean.
The Archaeology of Portuguese Agricultural Outposts in the Seventeenth-Century Zanzibar Countryside
Authors: LaViolette Adria , Norman Neil
Published: May 2024

The related archaeological sites of Fukuchani and Mvuleni in northwestern Unguja Island (Zanzibar, Tanzania) provide a rare opportunity to see inside rural seventeenth-century Portuguese colonial enterprises there, and to think about Portuguese interactions, intentions, and practices with Swahili people living in the nearby countryside. This chapter addresses primarily the archaeological evidence for life in two fortified Portuguese living- and workspaces, used for a short period and likely intended for commercial activities including tobacco cultivation and warehousing prior to shipment. The loop-holed defensive architecture at each site suggests possible tensions with local Swahili and fear of attack by Omanis and other Europeans, while the artifact assemblage provides insight into quotidian routines and social and economic relations with Swahili people. Building on a tradition of critical historical archaeology, findings point to the uneven nature of Portuguese colonialism in the Indian Ocean World, especially on the Kenyan and Tanzanian coasts, and contribute to the growing archaeology of colonial processes in this region.
A Hermeneutics of Plurality on the Road of the Orisha
Authors: Mason Michael Atwood
Published: May 2024

Michael Atwood Mason explores the fundamentally plural modalities inherent in the Cuban orisha tradition, which offers ample hermeneutic and expressive options for understanding and representing lived experience. It is impossible to narrate a life without providing some interpretation—specific expressive resources imply specific hermeneutics. Having discarded some narrative styles because of a strong cultural inclination for discretion and secrecy around religious matters, the author organizes the narrative of his path in the religion according to his principal ancestral guide spirit. Moreover, the essay moves between two narratives styles: personal experience narratives reflect in a relatively straightforward tone, while a second style imitates the divination stories recounted again and again in the religion. These two voices again underscore the complex expressive resources and interpretative frames that the religion affords.
Die Kreuzzüge
Authors: Jaspert Nikolas
Published: May 2024

Die Kreuzzüge prägten Kultur und Erfahrungswelt des Mittelalters ganz entscheidend. Neben den Kreuzzügen in das Heilige Land berücksichtigt Nikolas Jasperts klares Einführungswerk ebenso die Kriege gegen Andersgläubige auf der Iberischen Halbinsel oder im Ostseeraum wie auch gegen ›innere Feinde‹ der Christenheit. Einen weiteren Schwerpunkt bilden die geistlichen Ritterorden, die lange die Geschichte Europas geprägt haben. Durch die breite Anlage des Themas und den systematisch-chronologischen Zugriff gelingt es dem Autor, die Kreuzzüge in das allgemeine Phänomen ›europäische Expansion‹ einzubetten.
A Rare-and-Brief Glimpse of Director Akira Kurosawa
Authors: Peary Gerald
Published: May 2024

This chapter is set at a Tokyo meeting of international journalists with Japanese filmmaker, Akira Kurosawa, at a hotel on Mount Fuji. Kurosawa is there to discuss Ran, his 16th century tale of Lord Mori, a King Lear-like personage with three sons replacing Lear’s three daughters. There is also in Ran a femme fatale, Lady Kaede, who could be said to resemble Lady Macbeth. Kurosawa insists that “About Shakespeare, I am not a specialist,” and that he chose to make a film about Lord Mori not for King Lear because “I liked his personality. If he lived in Kyoto, he would have united Japan.”
