        Etwas fehlt immer

        Erzählungen

        by Guy Helminger

        Guy Helmingers Erzählungen sind für vieles gelobt worden: den nachtschwarzen, grandios trockenen Humor, die Raffinesse, die so brutale wie komische Abgründigkeit und nicht zuletzt die Tatsache, daß hier endlich einmal jemand eine stichhaltige Erklärung dafür gibt, warum manche Männer vom Zigarettenholen nicht mehr zurückkommen.

        Comic empires

        Imperialism in cartoons, caricature, and satirical art

        by Richard Scully, Alan Lester, Andrekos Varnava

        Comic empires is a unique collection of new research exploring the relationship between imperialism and political cartoons, caricature, and satirical art. Edited by leading scholars across both fields (and with contributions from contexts as diverse as Egypt, Australia, the United States, and China, as well as Europe) the volume provides new perspectives on well-known events, and illuminates little-known players in the 'great game' of empire in modern times. Some of the finest comic art of the period is deployed as evidence, and examined seriously, in its own right, for the first time. Accessible to students of history at all levels, Comic empires is a major addition to the world-leading 'Studies in Imperialism' series, as well as standing alone as an innovative and significant contribution to the ever-growing international field of comics studies.

        Work-Life Balance

        Malevolent Managers and Folkloric Freelancers

        by Wayne Reé, Benjamin Chee

        When a malevolent multinational arrives on our shores, familiar creatures like pontianaks, manananggals, rākṣasīs and ba jiao guis are forced out of their jobs. Some give in and sign up for mundane corporate life – but others would rather fight than join the broken-spirited hordes of the (desk)bound. Benjamin Chee’s comics and Wayne Rée’s prose intertwine in this collection to bring you familiar Asian mythology in an even more familiar setting: the realm of dead-end work, glass ceilings and truly hellish bosses.

        Die Grenzen kulturwissenschaftlicher Begriffsbildung

        Heidelberger Max-Weber-Vorlesungen 1982

        by Guy Oakes

        Dieses Buch soll dazu beitragen, die philosophischen Wurzeln von Webers Methodologie freizulegen und insbesondere den Zusammenhang seiner Position mit der Wertlehre Rickerts aufzuklären. Dabei bildet die Frage nach dem Verhältnis zwischen der Begründung der kulturwissenschaftlichen Objektivität bei Weber auf der einen und Rickerts Lösung des Problems der Wertobjektivität auf der anderen Seite den Kernpunkt der Untersuchung. Anhand der Bestimmung dieses Verhältnisses soll nicht nur gezeigt werden, daß Webers Begriff der kulturwissenschaftlichen Objektivität von Voraussetzungen ausgeht, die in Rickerts Werttheorie angelegt sind, sondern auch, daß es eben diese Voraussetzungen sind, die eine plausible Lösung des Objektivitätsproblems unmöglich machen.

        Morgen war schon

        Roman

        by Guy Helminger

        Die langsame Louise träumt auf dem Sofa von einer Reise nach Neuseeland; für ihren Mann Feltzer, den Taxi fahrenden Choleriker, sind die angenehmsten Fahrgäste fünf ausgemergelte Stoffgiraffen. Man könnte es eine einigermaßen glückliche Ehe nennen. Sehnsüchte schweifen in die Ferne, der Alltag klebt hartnäckig am Hier und Heute, und ein leises Unbehagen durchzieht das Zusammenleben. Ein fremder Mann sitzt allzu traulich mit Louise auf dem Sofa. Und bleibt nach einer Fahrt in Feltzers Taxi verschwunden.
