        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.‹«

        Geronnene Lava

        Texte zu politischem Totenkult und Erinnerung

        by Reinhart Koselleck, Manfred Hettling, Hubert Locher, Adriana Markantonatos

        »Gestorben wird alleine, zum Töten des Anderen gehören zwei. Die Fähigkeit des Menschen, seinesgleichen umzubringen, konstituiert vielleicht mehr noch menschliche Geschichte als seine Grundbestimmung, sterben zu müssen.« Der »gewaltsam Umgebrachten« zu gedenken, gehört zum Kern der politischen Kultur. Reinhart Koselleck hat mit seinen wegweisenden Arbeiten zum »Totenkult« ein neues Forschungsfeld erschlossen: die europäischen Denkmalslandschaften in ihrer ganzen historischen, ästhetischen und politischen Komplexität. Ob es sich um Opfer für das Vaterland oder um solche von Kriegen und Gewaltherrschaft handelt, ob Menschen in Bürgerkriegen und Revolutionen oder durch Staatsverbrechen, politischen oder religiösen Terror umgebracht wurden – alle sind »getötete Tote«. Ohne ihrer zu gedenken, so der Humanist Koselleck, ist ein Weiterleben nicht möglich. Der Band versammelt Kosellecks Aufsätze zum politischen Totenkult, publizistische Beiträge zu den Debatten über die »Neue Wache« und das Holocaustmahnmal in Berlin, theoretische Überlegungen zum Erinnerungsbegriff und unveröffentlichte autobiografische Notizen über seine Erfahrungen in Krieg und russischer Gefangenschaft. In Distanz zur populären »Erinnerungskultur« betonen sie die Unhintergehbarkeit der Differenz zwischen individueller Erfahrung und kollektiven Erinnerungskonstruktionen. Die Historie soll solche kollektiven Identitäten nicht stiften, sondern kritisch analysieren. Darin liegt für Koselleck die Aufgabe der Geschichtswissenschaft.

        Lyme Disease

        An Evidence-based Approach

        by John J Halperin

        This new edition of Lyme Disease provides up-to-date evidence-based research and covers the significant advances in our understanding of the disorders referred to as Lyme disease or Lyme borreliosis. This book explores the causative organism, its requisite ecosystem, disease epidemiology, host-Borrelia interactions, diagnostic testing, clinical manifestations, therapeutic options, the role of host immunity on pathogenesis and long term prognosis. The authors provide balanced perspectives on all aspects of Lyme disease and explicitly review both the basic biology of the infection and practical clinical aspects. This new edition: Includes new borrelial pathogens that have been identified (B. miyamotoi, B. mayonii and B. bavariensis among others). Provides updated information on the molecular biology of the organism, neuroborreliosis, and the role of the C6 peptide in diagnosis. Discusses the controversies about 'chronic Lyme disease', post Lyme disease syndrome and other ongoing but non-specific symptoms that have been attributed to this infection. As the endemic footprint of Lyme disease continues to grow, this book provides a broad and detailed guide for clinicians and researchers involved with the diagnosis and treatment of the condition. Covering biology, epidemiology and therapeutics, it is also essential reading for students of global health and infectious disease.

        The Salt

        by Adriana Riva

        “The silence stretches. We have come this far. Mom is that unreachable inch of skin between my shoulder blades, that bit that itches and I can’t scratch”.Beginning with a childhood accident, Ema digs into the bond with her mother and, pregnant with her second child, sets on a journey for answers: who is Elena, really? Does she know her well enough? Her mother is distant and there’s an area she can’t reach, no matter how hard she tries; that hasn’t changed over the years.With an appearance of simple prose, but charged with truthful images, Adriana Riva examines family relationships with an admirable precision, humor and rawness that turn The Salt into an intimate and touching novel. “This is the age of women, and argentinian literature is being renewed by many writers. Adriana Riva writes with verbal brilliance, creates wonderful images and shoots at the heart of empathy. With this book she asserts herself, without a doubt, as a truly unique voice in this literary scene”.Santiago Llach

        El menor (The Younger Brother)

        by Alicia Plante

        In her new novel, Alicia Plante confronts us again with atmospheres full of tension and expectations, along with a search for meaning, embodied in a brother who may hold the secret to our own identity. The writer -who seems to know the soul of each place she describes- plays with ever-changing and surprising backdrops, and now turns to a provincial town, which is a blend of charm and evil that seems to erupt in this “small town” scene. This offers a sharp contrast with the world of industry and finance, where the struggle for power and profit cannot hide its protagonists’ voracious greed, irrepressible passion, the danger of misplaced erotism, doubt, and loneliness.

        Crónicas completas (Full Chronicles)

        by Hebe Uhart

        In Hebe Uhart’s chronicles, more than landscapes and history, the author captures speech. These journeys, mostly intimate, are a search for ways of speaking. Hebe Uhart’s work as a collector of linguistic expressions is a fortunate and important contribution, since the woman who pays attention to language is not a collector of curiosities, she is a writer. Her fascination for language is not limited to spoken language; as she tours cities and towns, she notes down stores’ names, advertisements and graffiti, a routine repeated in almost every story. She is also interested in all the oral expressions that are intimately related to literature, such as proverbs. Hebe Uhart is voracious, but she offers all this information with great kindness, careful not to overwhelm readers, sharing with them facts which, however obvious, may have never caught their attention. The political stance behind these chronicles is quite clear: Latin American anchorage, stories that have been ignored or frowned upon —local history, everyday knowledge, linguistic expressions— and, one of her favorite subjects, Indigenous peoples on the continent.

        Enjambre (Swarm)

        by Joaquín Areta

        The stories of Enjambre (Swarm), Joaquín Areta's first novel, take place in a torrid, dry Neuquén, province of Argentina. Carlos, a retired engineer, takes care of his old mother; a boy from the suburbs, Bairon, waits alone, by the road, for cyclists to pass; Iñigo, a young agricultural engineer marked by his relationship with his father, must solve an invasion of aggressive bees. These stories are composed by matters that, only in appearance, are trivialities: a line of ants that persists in accompanying Carlos' elderly mother; a rectangle of black dirt at the bottom of his garden; Bairon's secret collection of stones and arrowheads; the monument in his neighborhood that commemorates the clash between the conquerors and the original inhabitants; the threatening presence of the police; the small "treasures" left behind by someone gone, which bring us echoes of the military dictatorship; the spines of the alpataco trees in the memory of Iñigo; a glass of juice filled with ice-cubes; the nauseating smell of an ambulance ... A swarm of images that orbits around bonding: between characters, between past and present, between territory and inhabitants. These stories together give shape to a particular Universe, in which the silence, the things that are not said and those which are simply implied, make the atmosphere  more and more intriguing and unsettling until we’re also reached by its sting. Joaquín Areta’s writing enables a new way of showing and saying that will imply, as well, a different way of reading and perceiving. This novel becomes intense and moving, taking on the brightness of what we cannot stop contemplating.

        Síndrome Praga (Prague Syndrome)

        by Juan Pablo Bertazza

        An Argentine travels to Prague, as a way of putting some distance from his old way of life. Leaving behind his past, he arrives to this city to work as a tour guide. He believes that his new life in this old world of alchemical and transforming tradition will be surely better than the one he left behind. Enthusiastic with his brand new beginning in Prague, the protagonist of Síndrome Praga (Prague Syndrome) starts to dedicate himself to explaining a city that, however, he does not know. Soon enough, he discovers what he couldn’t have guessed:  that locals there don't want visitors; that his work was not what he thought; and that language dislocations are even more disorienting than he could have imagined, especially in relation to sentimental communication with the immediately unforgettable and fatal Katka. But none of this represents the truly particularity that this city is about to show him. Suddenly, there’s something else: four numbers begin to appear on the foreheads of some people randomly walking through the streets. And then, the revelation: those numbers show, with exactitude, the inevitable date of those people’s deaths. What to do then? Hard to say. First of all -he decides-, keeping a journal: turning to writing as a way of understanding the world around him as well as himself and his own place in this new city and reality.
