Abstract
Der Prozess der Begegnung und das Potential der Sprache als Dialoginstrument: Themen, die gerade in Südtirol mit seinem historischen Erbe der Mehrsprachigkeit, aber auch in ganz Europa und darüber hinaus von großer Aktualität sind. Der Band sammelt die Beiträge zum Symposium, das am 28.05.2009 in Bozen stattfand und beleuchtet Bubers Philosophie des Dialogs aus unterschiedlichsten Perspektiven.

Il processo dell’incontro e il potenziale della lingua come strumento di dialogo sono temi di grande attualità non solo in Alto Adige, caratterizzato dall’eredità storica del plurilinguismo, ma anche nel resto d’Europa e nel mondo. Il volume raccoglie i contributi presentati al convegno tenutosi a Bolzano il 28 maggio 2009 e affronta da prospettive differenti la filosofia del dialogo di Martin Buber.

Abstract
In a society that is continuously evolving, and where the arts are integrating with daily life in ever-changing ways, music is an important constant in our lives. From even before we are born until our final breath, we are constantly bombarded by sound. These conference proceedings focus on different research areas, from the Mozart effect to music therapy, which were discussed in the international conference entitled “Beschäftigung mit Musik – ein Leben lang / Fare musica – tutta la vita” (Making music – throughout your life) in Brixen/Bressanone, 2008.

Abstract
What role does creativity play in the world of work? Academics and professionals active in certain “creative” sectors in the world of work discuss the role of creativity in professional life and in particular the vital (and destructive) power that this has over organizations and over the economy, art, science, theatre, fashion and the internet.

Abstract
Between 1968 and 1969 Carlo Scarpa and Sergio Los bought Gianni Tabarelli de Fatis and his wife a house in the middle of the vineyards of Cornaiano, a small village near Bolzano. Years have passed but the house has remained the same, and it’s for this reason that you feel as if you are walking into a museum. This book tells the story and the construction of Casa Tabarelli, its current state and what it might be used for in the future.

Abstract
Die Vermittlung von Wissen steht heute vor einer zweifachen Herausforderung: dem Anspruch auf Verständlichkeit trotz hoher Komplexität der Inhalte und dem Erreichen akzeptabler Ergebnisse in der Schule in Situationen von immer größerer Diversität. Daraus ergeben sich für die Sprachwissenschaft neue Schwerpunkte: eine konstante Besinnung auf die Phänomene, das sind die kommunikativen Akte von Mitgliedern einer Sprachgemeinschaft im Alltag und in Bereichen fachlicher Spezialisierung, das sind aber auch variable Kontexte der Sprechakte, die eine Koorientierung der sozialen Akteure verlangen, die ebenso gelernt und geübt werden muss, wie die Sprachen in ihren formalen und strukturellen Eigenheiten.
In diesem Band werden Forschungen und theoretische Ansätze vorgelegt, die ausgehend von diesen Prämissen Korpusrecherchen für die Erforschung und für die didaktische Vermittlung der drei Schulsprachen Deutsch, Italienisch und Englisch nutzbar machen. Besondere Schwerpunkte sind Varietäten der deutschen Sprache in Südtirol und die Interface-Problematik.

Abstract
Diese bibliographische Dokumentation knüpft an die beiden umfassenden Bibliographien zum Rätoromanischen, die Rätoromanische Bibliographie (Maria Iliescu/Heidi Siller-Runggaldier) sowie die Rätoromanische Bibliographie 1985-1997 (Heidi Siller-Runggaldier/Paul Videsott)an, deren Daten hier integriert und bis 2010 aktualisiert wurden. Durch die neue Anordnung der bibliographischen Daten nach Sachbereichen und chronologisch ansteigendem Publikationsdatum werden die knapp 5000 Einträge aus dem Zeitraum zwischen 1729 und 2010 zu einer Art „wissenschaftsgeschichtlichem Lesebuch“ zum state of the art der internationalen Rätoromanistik.

Questa documentazione bibliografica continua la tradizione delle due ampie bibliografie del retoromanzo, la Rätoromanische Bibliographie (Maria Iliescu/Heidi Siller-Runggaldier) nonché la Rätoromanische Bibliographie 1985-1997 (Heidi Siller-Runggaldier/Paul Videsott), i cui dati sono stati integrati in questo volume ed aggiornati fino al 2010. Grazie al nuovo ordinamento dei dati bibliografici per settori e per date di pubblicazione in ordine cronologico ascendente i pressoché 5000 titoli riguardanti il periodo compreso tra il 1729 e il 2010 diventano una panoramica della storia della disciplina e dello state of the art della retoromanistica internazionale.

Abstract
Der erste Band der Reihe scripta Ladina Brixinensia unter der Herausgeberschaft von Paul Videsott widmet sich der Präsenz des Ladinischen im Bildungssystem – Pflichtschulen, Oberschulen, Universitäten/Hochschulen – der Länder Trentino-Südtirol, Graubünden und Friaul. Im Zentrum steht die Ladinische Abteilung, die ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal der Freien Universität Bozen darstellt mit dem Ziel der Dokumentation, der Deskription und des Ausbaus des Ladinischen. Der abschließende Beitrag stellt einen Unterrichtsbehelf für den mehrsprachigen Unterricht im Bereich Sprachen vor, die dreisprachige Grammatik: Sprachen im Vergleich: Deutsch-Ladinisch-Italienisch.

Il primo volume della collana scripta Ladina Brixinensia a cura di Paul Videsott è dedicato alla presenza del ladino nel sistema formativo – scuole dell’obbligo, scuole superiori, università – in Trentino-Alto-Adige, nel Canton Grigioni e in Friuli. Al centro della pubblicazione sta la Ripartizione ladina della Libera Università di Bolzano, che si pone come obiettivi la documentazione, la descrizione e lo sviluppo del ladino. Il contributo finale presenta un valido strumento linguistico per l’educazione plurilingue: la grammatica trilingue Sprachen im Vergleich: Deutsch-Ladinisch-Italienisch.

Abstract
La Libera Università di Bolzano festeggia il decennale dall’istituzione con un particolare progetto editoriale: „Universitas est“ non è una pubblicazione celebrativa tradizionale, bensì una raccolta di osservazioni critiche viste dall’esterno: complessivamente 23 autori hanno scritto dei saggi sulla storia della formazione in Tirolo/Alto Adige dal Medioevo fino ad oggi.

La particolarità della Libera Università di Bolzano sta nel fatto che offre una formazione plurilingue: le lezioni vengono tenute in lingua tedesca, italiana ed inglese. In questo modo la LUB riflette quello spirito europeo che ha condotto a superare le obiezioni storiche ad un’università a Bolzano, dato che i sudtirolesi consideravano le iniziative per istituire un’università come una misura di italianizzazione dello Stato.

Per questo i giovani sudtirolesi hanno svolto la loro formazione universitaria in Paesi e città di lingua tedesca, soprattutto ad Innsbruck, o nelle università italiane di Trento, Padova o Bologna. Anche i movimenti studenteschi alla Facoltà di Sociologia di Trento rafforzarono l’opposizione all'università. Tuttavia all'inizio degli anni '90 vi fu un cambio di pensiero, soprattutto non si voleva più assistere a lungo al fatto che menti eccelse rimanessero nelle loro città universitarie e quindi mancassero in provincia.

Il libro con contributi in italiano ed in tedesco si occupa anche di temi come il “curriculum nascosto”, il plurilinguismo nella formazione, le richieste dell'economia all’università, il concetto di “learning region” oppure l'architettura universitaria. Un volume racchiude inoltre tutti i documenti che hanno condotto all’istituzione della Libera Università di Bolzano.

I saggi, redatti in lingua italiana o tedesca, sono accompagnati da abstracts nell'altra lingua e in inglese.

Abstract
La scienza occidentale sta subendo trasformazioni radicali, che ne cambiano profondamente la natura. La ricerca di base sta perdendo la sua centralità. Tuttavia, ancora occupa l’attività di migliaia di scienziati in tutto il mondo. In questo scenario è d’importanza strategica comprendere bene i meccanismi attraverso i quali avviene la produzione di conoscenza scientifica, le loro potenzialità e i loro limiti. Questo volume rende pubblici alcuni risultati preliminari di una ricerca empirica svolta tra il 2006 e il 2008 nel campo specifico della fisica delle particelle.

Il terzo volume della collana Le guide pratiche del Master CasaClima affronta la progettazione dei sistemi di ventilazione naturale sia alla scala urbana, sia alla scala edilizia. Per una migliore comprensione dei principi progettuali, il testo propone un percorso formativo dalla fisica dell’atmosfera all’analisi semplificata dei sistemi di ventilazione integrati. La trattazione è chiusa da un’analisi approfondita delle applicazioni storiche delle strategie di raffrescamento passivo che prende come esempio la tradizione mediorientale delle torri del vento.
