Pasgaard-Westerman rethinks the ontological and epistemological understanding of world, other and self by opposing the general anthropological paradigm within contemporary philosophy. Signs and interpretations are not functions of Man; instead Man is conceived as certain \"signo-interpretational\" relations to world, other and self. Opposing more traditional hermeneutical approaches the signo-interpretational relations towards world, other and self are understood as a \"skeptical disposition\". This skeptical disposition undercuts usual epistemological problems of skepticism and instead designates the permanent incompleteness of the process of interpretation and formulates an ethical imperative. This ethical imperative aims at an active dissolution of fixed signs; an openness towards other signs; and the holding back of definite interpretations. The book discusses how world appear as a sign-world, how the other appear within interpretational patterns, and how our signs of self are experienced. Discussing a wide range of epistemological and ontological questions and taking into account the perspectives of a broad range of philosophical traditions, a signo-interpretational account of reality, world-versions, other persons and self is presented.

North, Michael Strafner, doubled negatively, showing the other two suits. [Josef Simon] bid Three Diamonds, Strafner Three Spades and Simon 3NT. Not content, North now bid Four Diamonds, which South raised to Five, going from a safe game to one fraught with danger.

Anyone who has seen [Josef Simon], who was wearing jeans, gold snow boots and either a green or a burgundy jacket, or the car he was driving, are urged to call Peel police at 453-3311, extension 370. Peel Regional Police said they issued a nationwide alert Dec. 31 for Simon and the car he was driving - a two-door, 1979, gray AMC Concord with the licence OSJ 551.

Friedrichs was one of three students chosen to make a final appeal to [Imre Nagy] to hold on and beg for help from the United Nations. They visited the Yugoslav Embassy, where Nagy had been granted refuge, and made their pitch. The only thing she remembers Nagy saying is, \"It's not that simple, children.\" Two years later, Nagy was hanged. Neither would learn the other's fate for almost 40 years, until they were reunited in the mid-1990s. [Josef Simon], who became a successful sculptor, potter and painter, told Friedrichs she had been the inspiration for his work. The third student, Friedrichs learned later, also survived. After the dreary Christmas in an Austrian hospital, Friedrichs was sent to a refugee camp in Italy. At the first stop on the way to Rome, a welcoming committee of \"very high-brow ladies\" came aboard the train with fruit baskets for the refugees, recalled Friedrichs.

This article confronts the dialectic between parsimonious voice leading, as represented by neo-Riemannian theory, and the diatonic Stimmführungsmodelle , or the traditional formulas and methods of thorough-bass pedagogy as they were preserved in the nineteenth century. The historical contexts are represented by Carl Friedrich Weitzmann’s essay on the augmented triad (1853) and Simon Sechter’s Generalbass-Schule (1835). The possibility of setting the diatonic and chromatic models into productive analytic practice is explored, even as it is acknowledged that they are grounded in different principles. Steven Rings’s “syntactical interaction” and Richard Cohn’s “double syntax” are invoked. A Brahms song and a Schubert symphony serve as extended analytical examples.
