Read our Privacy notice Around 200 African migrants in refugee accommodation in the small southern German town of Ellwangen have forced police to release a man who was due to be deported to the Congo The 23-year-old man was un-handcuffed by police who considered themselves outnumbered after the large crowd of refugees threatened violence against officers who had arrived in three police cars According to local reports there was little prospect of backup as other police units would have taken several hours to arrive The large group of migrants reportedly surrounded the patrol cars and threatened the police “They were so aggressive and threatened us more and more so we had to leave the man behind and retreat to the gate [of the refugee facility],” one officer said adding that there was some damage to the cars The migrants then sent a messenger to the police bearing an ultimatum: that they had to remove the handcuffs from the Congolese national within two minutes The police decided to give the security guard at the refugee facility a key to release the man But he added: “It is also very clear that the rule of law can not be prevented by an aggressive crowd. The law will be enforced, that's what we stand for. We will continue to pursue our mission consistently.” The Congolese national has reportedly gone into hiding.

Confirmed cases of coronavirus at a facility in the south-western town of Ellwangen where refugees are accommodated while their asylum applications are processed had increased from seven to 251 in five days, authorities confirmed on Tuesday. None of the residents at the centre, which holds 606 people from 26 nations including China, Ghana and Syria, are currently believed to be in a critical condition, though one person has been transferred to a nearby hospital.

Interior Minister Horst Seehofer vowed he would do everything he could to clamp down on illegal immigration speed up asylum procedures and deport rejected asylum-seekers as quickly as possible "What happened (in Ellwangen) was a slap in the face of the law-abiding population," Seehofer — who is well-known for his law-and-order stance — told reporters in Berlin "The right to hospitality cannot be trampled on like that," he added promising that security authorities would "use all their force and determination" to prosecute those asylum-seekers who blocked police from executing the deportation Monday in Ellwangen deputy police chief in the town of Aalen near Ellwangen said the big police operation was necessary because of the "unprecedented" situation officers had faced when they arrived to pick up the Togolese man "They were massively prevented from doing so by about 150 to 200 African refugees," Weber told reporters Weber said a decision was taken to return early Thursday to enforce the deportation of the man to Italy which he passed through on his way to Germany people have to apply for asylum in the first EU nation they enter Four people including one police officer were taken to the hospital for injuries suffered during the raid Thursday while eight others were treated by paramedics at the scene the governor of Bavaria before he joined Chancellor Angela Merkel's new government six weeks ago said he wants to quickly implement new procedures to limiting the overall number of asylum-seekers in Germany He also vowed to do everything possible to deport criminal and extremist migrants faster the German government wants to place asylum-seekers in several centralized centers with up to 1,500 other migrants for up to two years They will not be distributed across the country before their application has been processed Judges will be working inside these centers and if they reject asylum-seekers those failed candidates will be deported straight from there Seehofer wants to increase the number of holding facilities for deportees to prevent them from evading deportation Asylum-seekers are currently housed in smaller shelters all over Germany while they await their asylum decision Some migrants go into hiding after being told of their upcoming deportation Seehofer said he also wants the German government to declare several nations — including Morocco Tunisia and Algeria as well as Georgia — as "secure home countries," lessening the chances that applicants from there will be granted asylum Those who do receive asylum will need to integrate better into German society Seehofer belongs to the Bavaria-only Christian Social Union which has always taken a harder line on migration than Merkel's Christian Democratic Union Although the two parties are part of the same governing coalition with Bavarian state election coming up this fall Seehofer has made a point of positioning himself to the right of Merkel on migration In the past he has also often criticized Merkel's more welcoming attitude toward migrants The battery manufacturer Varta aims to get involved in the market for electric car battery cells in the future the German company has primarily produced batteries for household electronics but has been involved in cell research for some time According to the German business publication Wirtschaftswoche the new large-format battery cell 21700 is at the centre of Varta’s plans The paper refers to “circles close to the company” Varta itself did not want to comment on the topic The company is currently building a pilot line for the 21700 cells at its headquarters in Ellwangen these are initially to be used primarily in high-performance electric cars – “for example as a short-term accelerator or as part of drive concepts in which the battery is permanently recharged by a motor while driving” Varta is currently in talks with several car manufacturers about this However, Varta moved into the limelight first and foremost with its participation in the first battery IPCEI (“Important Projects of Common European Interest”) of the European Union and with subsidies amounting to 300 million euros which were granted to the company by the federal government and also by the states of Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg in 2022 two-thirds of this sum will flow into the research and development of the new 21700 cells which the European Commission approved under state aid law can be drawn down by Varta until the end of 2024 When the funding notifications were handed over in June last year it was specifically stated that Varta would work on two projects: In addition to developing the latest generation of small-format lithium-ion cells with higher energy densities the company plans to focus on transferring its technology to larger cell formats the larger cells should also be able to be used in stationary battery storage or robots In the course of setting up a pilot line for the new 21700 cells in Ellwangen Varta is planning a recruitment drive: the group announced in mid-2020 that it intends to create around 1,000 new jobs in the German towns of Ellwangen and Nördlingen by the end of 2021 this is enormous growth: the company currently has around 4,000 employees wiwo.de (in German) I agree with the Privacy policy electrive has been following the development of electric mobility with journalistic passion and expertise since 2013 we offer comprehensive coverage of the highest quality — as a central platform for the rapid development of this technology As we have seen several times in this series authors were generally not able to exert much control over the medieval dissemination and interpretation of their texts or even about the texts that were (sometimes completely erroneously) attached to their names The legacy of Latin authors we now call ‘classical’ – including their image and reputation – was shaped and sometimes truly transformed by generations of medieval readers who each formed an image of these authorities in their minds often filtered through the lens of the medieval world they knew we can’t get inside readers’ heads to see how this process of legacy-building took place we can find snapshots of readers’ engagement with the ghostly figures behind the texts they encountered in manuscripts How – if at all – did medieval readers understand and imagine the authoritative authors – auctores – whose words they were reading or listening to Ermenrich of Ellwangen recounts a nightmarish event he was visited by a specter (fantasma) who turned out to be a monstrous Even after Ermenrich had crossed himself and threw the book in question far away from him Ermenrich committed his vision to writing in a long letter to the abbot Grimald that was included in a manuscript compilation to be read by a new set of readers Ermenrich himself continuously cites from the works of classical authors – including Vergil’s On the other end of the spectrum there were Christian readers expressed experiences that betray a certain anxiety about the perceived distance between the world of these Roman authorities and their own Some found creative ways to bridge the gap Medieval commentaries on the work of the Roman poet Horace often paint a picture of this author as someone who dispenses moral wisdom ‘like a monk’ (quasi monachus) – although Horace certainly seems to have been anything but The fourteenth-century author of the famous Ovide Moralisé took these strategies a step further when he assumed the mammoth task of rewriting and explaining the Metamorphoses to reflect their (supposed) Christian allegories collections of classical Latin poems were preceded by accessus – introductions that included formalized biographies of the authors being read these biographies could contain very creative and imaginative elements Virgil was often believed to be endowed with magical powers and the obscure reasons for Ovid’s exile proved just as intriguing for medieval as for modern scholars Despite – or even because of – the fictitious nature of these biographies classicists have recently set out to revalue them as sources there are also visual sources that can literally present a ‘portrait’ of an author as imagined by the artist unless clearly indicated by a name or attributes manuscripts can be difficult – is the figure of a scribbling man accompanying a poem by Ovid meant to be Ovid himself or a more generic imagining of ‘someone who writes’ Other creatively reimagined authors show up in newly created literary works The late-antique writer Fabius Planciades Fulgentius wrote a work in which the shade of Virgil explained the ‘true moral meaning’ of the Aeneid to the persona of Fulgentius himself the poet and bishop Baudri of Bourgueil wrote a set of fictitious verse letters to and from Ovid in his exile authors such as Dante and Petrarch famously brought auctores to life as The ‘specters’ – to borrow a term from modern authorial theory – of classical school authors haunted some of our medieval readers in various ways But what about the image of Christian authorities Was their legacy shaped in a way that is similar to that of ‘pagan’ Roman authors or did they fall into a very different category of authorities This article is part of The Power of Medieval Texts series Shari Boodts, Iris Denis, Riccardo Macchioro and Gleb Schmidt together make up the team behind a European research project on the reception of patristic sermons in medieval manuscripts (PASSIM), housed at the Department of Medieval History at

strain of plague bacteria sparked multiple historical and modern pandemics This was revealed by the analysis of three reconstructed historical genomes from the causative agent of plague isolated from plague victims between the 14th and 16th century The close relationship between strains causing different outbreaks in Europe led the international research team headed by the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History to suggest Europe as a medieval plague hotspot The researchers study was just published in Cell Host & Microbe Source of one of the bacterial strains whose genome was reconstructed in the present study For four centuries following the medieval Black Death plague was the most feared disease in Europe Though now mysteriously absent in the continent today plague persists in other areas of the world To investigate the evolutionary history of this notorious pathogen Spain that most likely represents the initial swathe of the Black Death one from a 14th century plague victim in Bolgar City and one from a post-Black Death 16th century outbreak in Ellwangen “By studying three plague victims from separate waves of the second pandemic we were hoping to capture multiple stages of the bacterium’s evolution in medieval Europe” historical accounts tell us that plague traveled northeast into Russia What the history books don’t tell us is that plague didn’t stop there The study published today provides evidence that 14-century Bolgar City was one stop along plague’s extensive and rapid travel that eventually brought it to Asia “Our analysis suggests that after the Black Death European plague strains traveled eastwards reaching the Golden Horde territory at the end of the 14th century and eventually making it all the way into China where they caused the third worldwide pandemic starting in the mid 19th century” director at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History expert in Computational Pathogenomics and co-senior author of the study points out “though several plague lineages exist in China today only the lineage that caused the Black Death several centuries earlier left Southeast Asia in the late 19th century pandemic and rapidly achieved a near worldwide distribution.” plague outbreaks continued in Europe until the 18th century The question of where this medieval plague reservoir was located has been controversial members of the team reported a putatively extinct plague lineage from the Great Plague of Marseille its close relationship with the 16th century Ellwangen genome suggests that plague did not stray very far Ellwangen is far less connected to global trade routes than the bustling trade centre of Marseille The presence of a shared plague lineage between the two cities led the research team to suggest Europe as a medieval plague hotspot “Evidence is accumulating to support the idea that plague was hiding somewhere locally within Europe for several centuries after the Black Death” says

bleak picture inside Ellwangen camp in Baden-Wurttemberg \"Everyone is scared to eat something because of crowds and we don't know who has coronavirus or not,\" said the resident a massive increase from around seven just a week ago District authorities at Ostalbkreis, where Ellwangen is located, announced they will eventually retest everyone \"in order to determine which persons have become additionally infected.\" The entire camp has been placed in lockdown since the start of April with police guarding the entrance to make sure no one leaves or enters a manager at the Baden-Wurtenburg Refugee Council said that the authorities handling of Ellwangen camp is a recipe for disaster \"They are seeing these people as a kind of threat and a danger it iseems to be an acceptable strategy to park the police outside and make sure nobody comes in and nobody comes out,\" he told EUobserver on Wednesday (15 April) He pointed out that the Refugee Council had demanded an evacuation of the camp some three weeks ago a proposal that was ignored by authorities \"It is about half the people who there in total just short of 600 people who are in there at the moment,\" he said The rest are families and women travelling alone It is also designed as a communal space and residency for people who first arrive in Germany seeking international protection They are not allowed to cook and must get their food in a canteen \"They are not even allowed to boil a kettle to make coffee in their own rooms,\" said McGinley The entire facility was put in lockdown on 5 April after a 32-year old man from Ghana first tested positive The number of infections has only since increased as police forces have been dispatched to impose a lockdown A single wi-fi hotspot inside the camp was also recently switched off placing residents in a near total information blackout McGinley said authorities had rented a facility able to quarantine some 30 people but because of its size it is of little use \"It is not going to be a solution where you have 250 people who are infected,\" he pointed out Similar stories of refugees in lockdown amid an infection outbreak are being reported elsewhere in Germany Among them is the Halberstadt refugee centre in Sachsen-Anhalt Some 100 of the 800 residents at the centre went on hunger strike in protest given the outbreak and lack of space to keep everyone at a
