        Ada Lovelace

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Zafouko Yamamoto, Svenja Becker

        Ada war viel allein, als sie klein war. Meistens spielte sie mit ihrer Lieblingskatze Mrs Puff und träumte von Maschinen, die fliegen können. Während einer langen Krankheit verbrachte sie viel Zeit im Bett und studierte Zahlen. Als sie später einen Mathematiker kennenlernte, der eine wundersame Rechenmaschine baute, erfand sie einen Code, der der Maschine sagte, was sie machen soll. Und heute ist dieser Code die Grundlage für unsere Computersprache! Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Schauspielerin, Fußballer oder Bürgerrechtsaktivistin, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen. Für welches Alter sind diese Bücher gedacht? Für Babys das perfekte Geschenk zur Begrüßung in eine Welt voller Träume! Und Eltern werden in schlaflosen Nächten von diesen Büchern dazu ermutigt, das Vorlesen zu einem selbstverständlichen Teil des Lebens zu machen. Kleinkinder werden von den Illustrationen verzaubert sein – sie werden zahlreiche Dinge entdecken. Auch sind die Bücher großartige „Vokabeltrainer“! 3- bis 5-Jährige werden alles, Illustrationen und Texte, geradezu in sich aufsaugen! 6-, 8- und 10-Jährige haben ein ausgeprägteres Verständnis für die Illustrationen und die Bedeutung der Geschichte – es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu akzeptieren und die eigenen Zukunftsträume zu verwirklichen, sondern auch darum, andere so zu akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Später: Die Bücher sind gute Geschenke zu jedem Anlass, denn die Träume der Kindheit können das ganze Leben lang Wirklichkeit werden.

        Defeated flesh

        Welfare, warfare and the making of modern France

        by Bertrand Taithe

        Defeated flesh dwells on the French defeat of 1870 and the socialist uprising of the Commune of Paris.. This is one of the first books to develop an in-depth, comparative analysis of the Franco-Prussian war and the Commune.. By looking at the history of the body and medicine it considers how the French people mobilised for the war effort and how their ultimate defeat had cultural and social consequences which led to the fin-de-siècle spirit.. Looking at the siege of Paris, the war suffering and rationing in an exceptionally harsh period of French history it revises the current debates on citizenship, centralisation and modern warfare.. Looking at many untouched sources, Taithe seeks to understand why 1870-1871 became such an important phase in the making of modern France. ;

        Bertrand Blier

        by Sue Harris

        The most complete study of Blier's work to date, Harris traces the director's career from the early 1960s until the present. Outlines the forms, themes and style which dominate in Blier's work, and challenges the many labels that have been used to describe both the corpus of films and the man himself. Provides an original and controversial discussion of Blier's alleged 'misogyny', and invites the reader to understand the scatological and corporeal aspects of Blier's filmmaking in terms of long-established traditions of popular dramatic culture. Brings to light the comic mechanisms underpinning Blier's films and identifies strategies which navigate through one of the most entertaining and disconcerting bodies of work of recent years. The first book on Blier published in English.

        Berühmte Frauenpaare

        by Joey Horsley, Luise F. Pusch

        Für eine Frau, die etwas werden will, ist die traditionelle Ehe ein stabiles Hindernis. Viele Frauen, die das erkannt haben, taten sich lieber mit einer anderen Frau zusammen – zur Steigerung der Lebensfreude und Schaffenskraft und zum Schutz gegen gesellschaftliche Härten. Acht Frauenpaare werden in diesem Band vorgestellt: alte Bekannte wie Gertrude Stein und Alice B. Toklas, Anita Augspurg und Lida Gustava Heymann, Unbekannte wie Eugenie Schumann und Marie Fillunger sowie leuchtende Sterne am Frauenhimmel mit ihren Gefährtinnen im Hintergrund: die Malerin Rosa Bonheur mit Nathalie Micas und später Anna Klumpke, die Dichterin Amy Lowell mit Ada Russell, die Biologin Rachel Carson mit Dorothy Freeman. Notgemeinschaften wie Milena Jésenska und Margarete Buber-Neumann oder Katherine Mansfield mit Ida Baker runden das Bild ab.
