        Charlotte Salomon

        Bilder eines Lebens

        by Astrid Schmetterling

        Charlotte Salomon – 1917 in Berlin geboren, 1939 nach Südfrankreich emigriert, 1943 in Auschwitz ermordet – hat ein außergewöhnliches Werk hinterlassen: Leben? oder Theater? . In Bildern und Texten von zeitloser, eigenwilliger Kraft setzt Charlotte Salomon die Lebensgeschichte einer jungen Frau im Berlin der zwanziger und dreißiger Jahre in Szene, die nach der Pogromnacht ins Exil geht. Sie erzählt von der zunehmenden Verfolgung der Juden, von Liebes- und Familienbeziehungen, die alles andere als einfach sind, unsentimental, selbstironisch oft noch da, wo es eigentlich bodenlos wird. Elemente aus Malerei, Literatur, Film und Musik sind in diesem in den Jahren 1940 bis 1942 im französischen Exil entstandenen Zyklus spielerisch miteinander verwoben. Astrid Schmetterling zeigt ein außergewöhnliches Leben, zeigt, wie Charlotte Salomon in ihrer kühnen Vermischung unterschiedlicher Genres eine visuelle Sprache fand, mit der sie ihrem Leben zwischen verschiedenen Identitäten und Orten, als jüdische Frau im Exil, auf einzigartige Weise Ausdruck zu verleihen vermochte. »Geblieben ist uns nur ihr Werk – komplex, lebensvoll, ganz verrückt besonders.«

        'Anagrams of desire'

        Angela Carter's writing for radio, film and television

        by Charlotte Crofts

        Angela Carter is best known for her novels, short fiction and journalism, but she also produced a substantial body of writing for media other than the printed page, including five radio plays, two film adaptations, an original television documentary and a number of unrealised scripts for stage and screen. Despite increasing academic interest in Carter's work, these dramatic writings have largely been ignored. In this book, Charlotte Crofts redresses this lack of critical attention by examining Carter's dramatic writings together for the first time (including two unpublished works), giving them a more central position in the Carter canon. Divided into three sections on radio, film and television, the book's interdisciplinary approach is underpinned by reference to exclusive interviews with the directors and producers with whom Carter collaborated, giving a unique insight into processes of adaptation and the technologies of media production. The author demonstrates how, far from being an aberration from her real vocation as a writer of fiction, Carter's writing for radio, film and television is an extension of her self-professed demythologising practice. ;

        Festivals of Chinese Ethnic Groups·Yao: The King Pan Festival

        by Yan Xiangjun, Zheng Xiaojuan

        This book mainly introduces the origin of the Yao ethnic group's King Pan Festival. The King Gao rebelled. In order to encourage his people to actively fight back and win the war, Emperor Ku made a promise: Whoever can cut off the head of the King Gao will marry his beautiful little daughter -- the third princess. After hearing of the news, Pan Hu who was a dragon dog managed to achieve the goal. However, the emperor did not want to keep his promise after learning that Pan Hu was a dragon dog. The third princess found that Pan Hu was very kind and brave, and decided to marriage him. Later, the third princess learned that Pan Hu could become a human as long as he was steamed in a steamer for seven days and nights. After Pan Hu was transformed into a human, the emperor sent Pan Hu to the Kuaiji Mountain to be the king. From then on, Pan Hu was called King Pan Hu. Later, during a hunting process, King Pan Hu fell off a cliff and died. In order to commemorate him, people set his birthday October 16th in the lunar calendar as the “King Pan Festival”.

        The King of Trash

        The King of Trash

        by Donald Willerton

        The plague of homelessness runs through it like a pulsing vein. There is murder―and bodies galore. There is unhesitating genocide. There is an escape from certain death that will haunt you.And yet The King of Trash is a story of tenderness, of ethical struggle, and of deeply bonded humanity.In his latest novel―and his first to move beyond the highly successful Mogi Franklin middle-reader mysteries―author Don Willerton intertwines modern-day themes of transcendent importance through a unique and intriguing tale of mystery, adventure, and courage.Early readers have sometimes had nightmares, but yet The King of Trash is ultimately redeemed by its heart. It begins with a newspaper reporter setting out to interview a former school mate who's now become one of the world greatest scientists―and one of its richest men. Before long, though, we are enmeshed in a web of awful and expedient “facts” building to a twenty-first-century morality tale in which no one can escape the hard and bitter decisions of the “real” world. And yet at the end, we learn, is the one central truth, the only remnant left to sustain Willerton's fascinating and vivid characters―and all the rest of us alive on Earth as well.

        Contemporary British poetry and the city

        by Peter Barry, Kim Latham

        Though poets have always written about cities, the commonest critical categories (pastoral poetry, nature poetry, Romantic poetry, Georgian poetry, etc.) have usually stressed the rural, so that poetry can seem irrelevant to a predominantly urban populati. Explores a range of contemporary poets who visit the 'mean streets' of the contemporary urban scene, seeking the often cacophonous music of what happens here. Poets discussed include: Ken Smith, Iain Sinclair, Roy Fisher, Edwin Morgan, Sean O'Brien, Ciaran Carson, Peter Reading, Matt Simpson, Douglas Houston, Deryn Rees-Jones, Denise Riley, Ken Edwards, Levi Tafari, Aidan Hun, and Robert Hampson. Approaches contemporary poetry within a broad spectrum of personal, social, literary, and cultural concerns. Includes 'loco-specific' chapters, on cities including Hull, Liverpool, London, and Birmingham, with an additional chapter on 'post-industrial' cities such as Belfast, Glasgow and Dundee. ;

        The divorce of King Lothar and Queen Theutberga

        Hincmar of Rheims's De divortio

        by Rachel Stone, Charles West

        In the mid-ninth century, Francia was rocked by the first royal divorce scandal of the Middle Ages: the attempt by King Lothar II of Lotharingia to rid himself of his queen, Theutberga and remarry. Even 'women in their weaving sheds' were allegedly gossiping about the lurid accusations made. Kings and bishops from neighbouring kingdoms, and several popes, were gradually drawn into a crisis affecting the fate of an entire kingdom. This is the first professionally published translation of a key source for this extraordinary episode: Archbishop Hincmar of Rheims's De divortio Lotharii regis et Theutbergae reginae. This text offers eye-opening insight both on the political wrangling of the time and on early medieval attitudes towards magic, penance, gender, the ordeal, marriage, sodomy, the role of bishops, and kingship.The translation includes a substantial introduction and annotations, putting the case into its early medieval context and explaining Hincmar's sometimes-dubious methods of argument.

        Festivals of Chinese Ethnic Groups·Dong; The King Lin Festival

        by Yan Xiangjun, Xuan Sen

        This book mainly describes the origin of the Dong ethnic group's King Lin Festival to commemorate the Dong's hero Lin Kuan. According to the legend, Lin Kuan was born with supernatural power. In order to resist the tyranny at that time, Lin Kuan called the poor and young people in the Dong village to revolt, but eventually died when he tried to protect his people. Lin Kuan became a hero of the Dong people. His story has been handed down by generations of the Dong people. Every year on the first day of June of the lunar calendar, the Dong people gather together to spend the “King Lin Festival”. This book also describes the various activities of the Dong’s King Lin Festival and introduces an overview of the Dong people in China.

        Tyrants of Sicily by Hugo Falcandus

        Tyrants of Sicily by Hugo Falcandus

        by Graham Loud, Thomas Wiedemann

        This book is our principal source for the history of the Kingdom of Sicily in the troubled years between the death of its founder, King Roger, in February 1154 and the spring of 1169. It covers the reign of Roger's son, King William I, known to later centuries as 'the Bad', and the minority of the latter's son, William II 'the Good'. The book illustrates the revival of classical learning during the twelfth-century renaissance. It presents a vivid and compelling picture of royal tyranny, rebellion and factional dispute at court. Sicily had historically been ruled by tyrants, and that the rule of the new Norman kings could be seen, for a variety of reasons, as a revival of that classical tyranny. A more balanced view of Sicilian history of the period 1153-1169 has been provided as an appendix to the translation in the section of the contemporary world chronicle ascribed to Archbishop Romuald II of Salerno, who died in April 1181. In particular the chronicle of Romuald enables us to see how the papal schism of 1159 and the simultaneous dispute between the German Emperor Frederick Barbarossa and the north Italian cities affected the destiny of the kingdom of Sicily. In contrast to the shadowy figure of Hugo Falcandus, the putative author of the principal narrative of mid-twelfth-century Sicilian history, Romuald II, Archbishop of Salerno 1153-1181, is well-documented.

        Das Dritte Reich des Traums

        by Charlotte Beradt, Barbara Hahn

        Charlotte Beradt, die als Journalistin in Berlin arbeitete, wurde ab 1933 nicht mehr beschäftigt, floh 1939 nach England und 1940 weiter nach New York. Charlotte Beradt sammelte Träume, die zwischen 1933 und 1939 geträumt wurden, und befragte dazu Menschen ihrer Umgebung: Schneiderin, Nachbar, Tante, Milchmann, den befreundeten Unternehmer, den Arzt … Fünfzig „von der Diktatur diktierte Träume“ hat sie in ihren 1966 erstmals erschienenen Klassiker der Traumdokumentation aufgenommen. Eine erste Auswahl, 1943 in einer amerikanischen Zeitschrift erschienen, begann mit den Sätzen: „Ich erwachte schweißgebadet, mit zusammengebissenen Zähnen. Wieder, wie in zahllosen Nächten davor, war ich in einem Traum von einem Ort zum nächsten und immer weiter gejagt worden – angeschossen, gefoltert, skalpiert. Aber in dieser Nacht kam mir in den Sinn, daß ich wohl nicht die einzige unter Abertausenden war, die durch die Diktatur zu solchen Träumen verurteilt wurde. Was meine Träume beherrschte, mußte auch ihre beherrschen – atemlose Flucht über Felder, Versteck auf schwindelerregend hohen Türmen, Sichverkriechen in Gräbern, die SS-Männer stets auf den Fersen. Ich begann, andere Leute nach ihren Träumen zu befragen.“

        Security in a greater Europe

        The possibility of a pan-European approach

        by Charlotte Wagnsson

        Can Russia, the European Union and the three major EU member states adopt a unified policy line in the global arena? Charlotte Wagnsson investigates the cohesiveness of 'greater Europe' through the detailed scrutiny of policy statements by the leadership elites in the UK, France, Germany, Russia and the EU in connection with three defining events in international security: the crisis in Kosovo of 1999; the terrorist attacks of 9/11 and the Iraq crisis of 2003. This extensive empirical enquiry results in a critical constructivist response to neorealist understandings of European security. The book contrasts the EU's new way of 'doing security' with the established, competitive bilateral interplay in the European security sphere and provides a clue to the kind of security politics that will prevail in Europe. It considers the extent to which the major European players pursue similar objectives, and assesses the possible implications for, and the chances of, greater Europe emerging as a cohesive global actor. ;
