        Zwerg Nase

        by Wilhelm Hauff, Adriana Coll

        Zwerg Nase ist eines der bekanntesten und beliebtesten Märchen von Wilhelm Hauff. Es erzählt die Geschichte vom hübschen Knaben Jakob, der von einer Hexe sieben Jahre als Diener gefangen gehalten wird und als hässlicher Zwerg zurückkehrt, so dass ihn nicht einmal die eigene Mutter wiedererkennt. Doch die Kochkunst, die er im Haus der Hexe erlernte, und die Freundschaft zu einer verzauberten Gans helfen ihm am Ende der Geschichte, sich und seine Freundin Mimi vom bösen Zauber zu befreien. Die Illustrationen von Adriana Coll bezaubern in der Anlehnung an japanische Holzschnittmeister durch ihre besondere Farbigkeit und Ausstrahlung. »›So, Söhnchen, so‹, sprach die Alte, ›iß nur dieses Süppchen, dann hast du alles, was dir an mir so gefallen! Sollst auch ein geschickter Koch werden, daß du doch etwas bist; aber Kräutlein, nein, das Kräutlein sollst du nimmer finden.‹«

        Fantastic histories

        Medieval fairy narratives and the limits of wonder

        by Victoria Flood

        Fantastic Histories explores the political and cultural contexts of the entry of fairies to the historical record in twelfth century England, and the subsequent uses of fairy narratives in both insular and continental history and romance. It traces the uses of the fairy as a contested marker of historicity and fictionality in the histories of Gerald of Wales and Walter Map, the continental mirabilia of Gervase of Tilbury, and the fourteenth- and fifteenth-century French Mélusine romances and their early English reception. Working across insular and continental source material, Fantastic Histories explores the practices of history-writing, fiction-making, and the culturally determined boundaries of wonder that defined the limits of medieval history.

        The Irish tower house

        Society, economy and environment, c. 1300–1650

        by Victoria L. McAlister

        The Irish tower house examines the social role of castles in late-medieval and early modern Ireland. It uses a multidisciplinary methodology to uncover the lived experience of this historic culture, demonstrating the interconnectedness of society, economics and the environment. Of particular interest is the revelation of how concerned pre-modern people were with participation in the economy and the exploitation of the natural environment for economic gain. Material culture can shed light on how individuals shaped spaces around themselves, and tower houses, thanks to their pervasiveness in medieval and modern landscapes, represent a unique resource. Castles are the definitive building of the European Middle Ages, meaning that this book will be of great interest to scholars of both history and archaeology.

        Roy Ward Baker

        by Geoff Mayer, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard

        This book traces the career of Roy Ward Baker, one of the great survivors of the British film and television industry. He directed the landmark British film Morning Departure (1949), worked at Twentieth Century Fox in Hollywood in the early 1950s where he directed Marilyn Monroe's 'breakthrough' film (Don't Bother to Knock), and followed this with a succession of fine films for Rank, culminating in the best version of the Titanic disaster, A Night to Remember in 1958. Yet within three years he was unable to secure a job in the British film industry and he moved to television series such as The Avengers, The Saint and Minder. Later Baker re-emerged as a major director of science-fiction (Quatermass and the Pit) and horror films (Asylum). Geoff Mayer provides an industrial and aesthetic context in which to understand the interrelationship between a skilled classical director and the transformation of the British film industry in the 1950s. ;
