Mathias Harzhauser, System Change. Eine Geschichte von Sex, Feuer und den Kipp-Punkten des LebensWien 2025ISBN 978-3-903096-83-7168 S./pp., zahlr. Farbabb./num. colour figs., 24 x 17 cm; broschiert/softcover Die letzten 3,8 Milliarden Jahre lang war die Geschichte des Lebens ein wilder Ritt. Eine absurde Abfolge aus Scheitern, Neustart, Innovation und gefährlichen Kipp-Punkten. Alles immer in einem Spannungsfeld zwischen »hausgemachten« geologischen Prozessen, tödlichen Bedrohungen aus dem All und den durchs Leben selbst ausgelösten Kaskaden an positiven oder negativen Feedback-Mechanismen. Überraschend oft hat die Erde ihr Aussehen grundlegend verändert. Sie hatte schwarze und violette Phasen, verwandelte sich in einen riesigen Schneeball und wurde zum tödlichen Wüstenplanet. Die wahren Herrscher in diesem Spiel: Mikroben! Sie haben die frühe Atmosphäre vernichtet, die Meere für Milliarden von Jahren wie mit Leichentüchern verhüllt und sogar Eiszeiten ausgelöst. Zugleich schufen sie die Grundlagen für die Entwicklung des höheren Lebens. Bücher über die Geschichte der Erde und über die Evolution des Lebens gibt es viele, doch noch in keinem wurde so kompakt und umfassend hinter die Kulissen des »Systems Erde« geblickt. Dabei vermittelt das Buch das nötige Rüstzeug, um sich auch mit möglichen Zukunftsszenarien des Planeten zu beschäftigen. Werden die Korallenriffe im sauren Meerwasser zugrunde gehen, weil sich das CO² der Atmosphäre wie vor 250 Millionen Jahren im Wasser löst? Oder wird das Methan der Kontinentalhänge schmelzen und wie vor 56 Millionen Jahren ein geologisch kurzes, aber für die Biosphäre verheerendes Supertreibhaus auslösen? Nach der Lektüre des Buches ist klar, seit wann es Schönheit gibt und warum Kühe zu Zwergen werden können!

Erected by Octavian Augustus on the sacred hill of Apollo, the monument stands as a tangible expression of his victory at the Battle of Actium (31 B.C.E.) and of the profound political transformation that followed – the transition from the Roman Republic to the Principate, the new regime named after the title princeps, which would define Roman rule for centuries. Comprising 14 chapters and contributions by leading experts across disciplines, this two-volume work offers a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach to the monument. As one of the first architectural projects of the Augustan era, combining the character of a victory tropaeum with that of a sacred cult site, the monument embodies the emerging imperial ideology and the consolidation of Augustus’ authority across three continents. This is a landmark publication of international relevance, addressed to the global scholarly community in archaeology, history, classical and humanistic studies, offering crucial insights into the transition to a new imperial world order.

In 960 pages, the artefacts are thematically presented through detailed descriptions by archaeologists, historians and expert scholars.This volume complements the first and includes rich photographic material, not only of the objects but also of the exhibition itself, offering a vivid picture of the process of its installation and the spaces in which its 12 sections are structured. This is the first archaeological catalogue to document photographically the entire installation of an exhibition, which makes it a unique example of exhibition documentation in Greece. It is a valuable scholarly bilingual work, in Greek and English, which is addressed not only to specialists but also to the public, helping the reader to understand the multiple roles, position, rights and limitations of the woman of the Cyclades over the centuries. The catalogue is expected to become a reference for Cycladic research in the coming years.
