Vor allem private Büchersammlungen sind in der Regel Zäsuren durch familiäre Veränderungen und historische Wendungen ausgesetzt. Je älter diese Sammlungen sind, desto größer die Heterogenität des häufig mittlerweile bruchstückhaften Bestandes. Ein Beispiel der SLUB zeigt die Schwierigkeiten der Provenienzforschung.

Das Geschlecht derer von Friesen wurde 1653 vom Kaiser in den erblichen Reichsfreiherrenstand erhoben. In der Folge wurden zwei Gruppenbildnisse bei Samuel Bottschild bestellt und im Schloss Rötha präsentiert. Sie zeigen einmal die Herren von Friesen in die römische Äneasgeschichte versetzt und Wehrhaftigkeit und Führungskraft an der Seite ihres sächsischen Landesherrn demonstrierend. Das Damenbildnis porträtiert mehrere Frauen von Friesen mit Attributen des Glücks, der Gerechtigkeit, der Fruchtbarkeit und des Friedens.

Dr. John K. Friesen is a Canadian who, for over 50 years worked first in the field of adult education in Canada and then in population planning internationally. He gained prominence in his own country, considerable international stature and a reputation for his vision and capability. Friesen successfully used a democratic, cooperative approach in discovering and responding to community requirements in adult learning. This biographical study provides new material about his character, goals, influences. The thesis focuses on Friesen’s work as Director of Extension for the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada (1953 - 1966) but also outlines his life and career before this term and gives a synopsis of his international work. A brief description is given of Friesen’s upbringing in a small rural community in Manitoba, his experiences as an educator and leader during the great depression and of his war service in the RCAF. His work in organizing adult education programs for the Manitoba Federation of Agriculture and his life during post-graduate studies at Columbia University are described. He was involved in the cooperative movement and provided informed, effective leadership in Manitoba’s post-war efforts to renew its educational system and to develop a network of hospitals. The thesis examines Friesen’s commitments, methods and the management style he applied in expanding the UBC Extension Department into a sophisticated organization. Under his leadership the department became influential in adult education, leadership and citizenship training in British Columbia; also it was involved in international adult education work. Research was conducted into the work of Friesen and others in originating a graduate program in adult education at UBC. The nature and outcomes of his work in promoting continuing professional education is also examined. The role of Extension in the Vancouver International Festival and other cultural development work is discussed. Friesen is shown to have extended the work of the University into communities throughout the province using study-discussion groups, lectures, credit and noncredit programs in this work. A change in University policy (1963) forced the Department to abandon much of its community based work; the consequences of this shift are considered. Comment from seven of Friesen’s senior colleagues provides insight into his leadership quality and the perceived value of the work carried out during his term. Some conclusions are drawn about Friesen’s life as an educator and humanitarian and on his approach to adult education. The ideas, ideals, commitments and convictions demonstrated by Friesen remain valid today.

Der Beitrag untersucht die Verwendung der französischen Kriegskostenentschädigung für die Ausmalung der Albrechtsburg Meissen mit Monumentalmalerei. Welche Institutionen waren beteiligt? Wohin wurde das Geld außerdem noch verteilt? In Sachsen regelte schon früher als in anderen Ländern des Deutschen Reiches ein Kunstfond die Förderung heimischer Künstler und die Ausgestaltung öffentlicher Gebäude.

Ce mémoire offre un nouvel éclairage sur la transition en cours de l’institution pénale contemporaine d’une fonction essentiellement morale et symbolique vers la gestion effective des risques dans la société. Nous estimons que c’est en juxtaposant ses différentes pratiques – pratiques discursives entourant la responsabilité criminelle des accusés atteints de troubles mentaux non psychotiques, pratiques en matière de criminalisation préventives et nouvelles pratiques en matière de peine – que cette transformation fonctionnelle est la plus appréciable. Afin d’illustrer ces différentes pratiques, nous proposons de suivre le parcours pénal réservé par l’institution pénale aux sujets autistiques. Tout en étant fortement déterminés dans leur développement moral, social, sexuel et émotionnel et dans leur capacité à se conformer à la loi pénale, ceux-ci demeurent toutefois minimalement réceptifs aux technologies pénales. Nous pensons que leur incorporation à l’intérieur de la logique pénale résulte essentiellement de cet attrait utile de la peine au prix même de la déformation de nos principes fondamentaux collectifs de justice. Ce mémoire offre la première analyse systématique de la jurisprudence concernant la responsabilité criminelle et la peine des personnes autistes au Canada ainsi qu’une synthèse des plus récentes découvertes juridico-cliniques sur l’autisme. L’intégrité physique et psychologique des personnes autistes étant menacée comme jamais auparavant par l’inflation du quantum des peines en raison de l’arrêt Friesen et des réformes du gouvernement Harper, nous invitons les juristes, les avocats, les experts cliniques à s’intéresser davantage à l’intervention de l’institution pénale envers ces personnes hautement vulnérables. / This thesis sheds new light on the ongoing transition of the contemporary penal institution from a moral and symbolic function to the effective management of risks in society. We believe that it is by juxtaposing its different practices – discursive practices surrounding the criminal responsibility of defendants with non-psychotic mental disorders, preventive criminalization practices and new sentencing practices – that this functional transformation is most appreciable. To illustrate these different practices, we propose to follow the penal circuit reserved by the penal institution for autistic subjects. While being strongly determined in their moral, social, sexual, and emotional development and in their ability to comply with penal law, they nevertheless remain minimally receptive to penal technologies. We think that their incorporation within the penal logic results from this useful attraction of the penalty at the very price of the deformation of our collective fundamental principles of justice. This thesis offers the first systematic analysis of the case law concerning the criminal liability and sentencing of persons with autism in Canada as well as a synthesis of the most recent legal and clinical findings on autism. As the physical and psychological integrity of people with autism is threatened like never before by the inflation of the quantum of sentences due to the Friesen decision and the legislative reform by the Harper government, we invite jurists, lawyers, clinical experts to take a greater interest in the intervention of the penal institution towards these highly vulnerable individuals.
