Die Burgmannshofer Hofgeschichten stellen eine Chronik der alten bäuerlichen Hofstellen in Burgmannshofen über die letzten Jahrhunderte bis in die Nachkriegszeit dar. Für jede Hofstelle fügen sich vergangene Eigentums- und Besitzverhältnisse, sachliche Beschreibungen, Lebensdaten der Bewohner, Aufzeichnungen der hiesigen Pfarrer sowie Erzählungen der ältesten Dorfbewohner zu einer umfassenden chronologischen Hofgeschichte zusammen. Darüber hinaus werden die Kirche St. Gertraud und das Armen- und Hirtenhaus in eigenen Kapiteln behandelt. Eine Auflistung ehemaliger Dorfbewohner ohne Hofzuordnung, ein kurzer Abriss zur Dorfentwicklung und ein Glossar runden die Publikation ab, ergänzt mit 50 Abbildungen, Flurkarten und einem wissenschaftlich akkuraten Quellen- und Literaturverzeichnis.
Over 8,200 large city fires broke out between 1000 and 1939 CE in Central Europe. Prometheus Tamed inquires into the long-term history of that fire ecology, its local and regional frequencies, its relationship to climate history. It asks for the visual and narrative representation of that threat in every-day life. Institutional forms of fire insurance emerged in the form of private joint stock companies (the British model, starting in 1681) or in the form of cameralist fire insurances (the German model, starting in 1676). They contributed to shape and change society, transforming old communities of charitable solidarity into risk communities, finally supplemented by networks of cosmopolite aid. After 1830, insurance agencies expanded tremendously quickly all over the globe: Cultural clashes of Western and native perceptions of fire risk and of what is insurance can be studied as part of a critical archaeology of world risk society and the plurality of modernities.

This conference book contains papers presented at the 8th GACM Colloquium on Computational Mechanics for Young Scientists from Academia and Industry. The conference was held from August 28th – 30th, 2019 in Kassel, hosted by the Institute of Mechanics and Dynamics of the department for civil and environmental engineering and by the chair of Engineering Mechanics / Continuum Mechanics of the department for mechanical engineering of the University of Kassel. The aim of the conference is, to bring together young scientits who are engaged in academic and industrial research on Computational Mechanics and Computer Methods in Applied Sciences. It provides a plattform to present and discuss recent results from research efforts and industrial applications. In more than 150 presentations, given by young scientists, current scientific developments and advances in engineering practice in this field are presented and discussed. The contributions of the young researchers are supplemented by a poster session and plenary talks from four senior scientists from academia and industry as well as from the GACM Best PhD Award winners 2017 and 2018.
