Die musikalische Hermeneutik ist ein umstrittenes Unternehmen, das heute vor allem für eine historisch-kulturwissenschaftliche Analyse musikalischer Bedeutungen steht. Daneben besteht aber eine wilde Alltagshermeneutik, in der das Verstehen mit dem alltäglichen Umgang mit Musik verwoben ist. Meg Stuarts Tanzstück Built to last wird gelesen als Reflexion auf diese Alltagshermeneutik. Es wendet Stuarts Technik der Erforschung und Verfremdung von Ausdrucksbewegung auf die Bewegung der und zur Musik an, und sein dezidiert »falscher« Umgang mit der klassischen Musik lässt mehr über deren Gegenwart erkennen als ein formalerer, »richtiger« Ansatz. <br><br>Musical hermeneutics is a controversial issue. Today it is primarily associated with historical research into musical meanings in the context of cultural studies. Besides this, there is an everyday hermeneutics where understanding is inextricably linked to the daily use of music. Meg Stuart’s dance piece Built to last is interpreted as a reflection of this everyday hermeneutics. It applies Stuart’s technique of researching and distorting expressive movement to the movement of and to music, and its decidedly “wrong” way of doing this reveals more about classical music’s presence than a more formal, “right” approach.

The photography collection of the German documentation centre for art history, Deutsches Dokumentationszentrum für Kunstgeschichte – Bildarchiv Foto Marburg (DDK), comprises more than 2.8 million objects. These include roughly 500,000 glass negatives, of which nearly 3,000 were made by the first Hessian state conservator Ludwig Bickell between 1870 and 1901. These early glass plates show a large number of retouchings and traces of their production and usage. This makes them rich sources for photographic and art historical or cultural historical research as well as conservation studies.

Abstract Tomasello argues in the target article that, in generalizing the concrete obligations originating from interdependent collaboration to one's entire cultural group, humans become “ultra-cooperators.” But are all human populations cooperative in similar ways? Based on cross-cultural studies and my own fieldwork in Polynesia, I argue that cooperation varies along several dimensions, and that the underlying sense of obligation is culturally modulated.

Summary: This paper presents the results obtained in Spain with The Interpersonal Adjective Scales of J.S. Wiggins (1995) concerning the variables' structure. There are two Spanish versions of IAS, developed by two independent research groups who were not aware of each other's work. One of these versions was published as an assessment test in 1996. Results from the other group have remained unpublished to date. The set of results presented here compares three sources of data: the original American manual (from Wiggins and collaborators), the Spanish manual (already published), and the new IAS (our own research). Results can be considered satisfactory since, broadly speaking, the inner structure of the original instrument is well replicated in the Spanish version.
