        »Ich sehne mich sehr nach Deinen blauen Briefen«

        Briefwechsel

        by Rainer Maria Rilke, Claire Goll, Barbara Glauert-Hesse, Barbara Wiedemann, Barbara Glauert-Hesse

        Schön, wenn einmal so ein Herz über einem aufgeht, gar nicht erst in seinem ersten Viertel, gleich wie der ganze Mond in seiner vollkommensten Nacht ...«, schrieb Rilke später über seine erste Begegnung mit Claire Goll.Claires und Rilkes Korrespondenz beginnt 1918 und zeigt trotz ihrer Verhaltenheit, daß den 43jährigen und die 28jährige bald eine innige Freundschaft und mehr verbindet. Sie tauschen sich über ihre Werke aus, spenden einander Trost und schreiben sich mit leidenschaftlicher Sehnsucht. Der vorliegende Band enthält außerdem sieben französischsprachige Gedichte, die Rilke als kleines handgebundenes Buch an Claire gesandt hatte, sowie das lange unveröffentlicht gebliebene und verschollen geglaubte Manuskript Gefühle. Verse von Claire Studer, das sich im Archiv des Insel Verlages, Leipzig, wiederfand.

        Der kleine Esel Liebernicht und ein Sommer voller Abenteuer

        by Martin Baltscheit

        Little Donkey No-Never-Ever: A Summer Full of Adventures The small, stubborn donkey No-Never-Ever is the reference point of every story. With his likeable way of stubbornly refusing to do some things, he repeatedly gets the animal family on the farm and the owner Claire into trouble. At the same time, he has a delightful twinkle in his eye that Claire finds hard to resist...  As a result, he causes all sorts of commotion, thrilling little readers and even leaving adult readers smiling. About cohesion, friendship, small happiness and the really big questions! Narrated humorously by multi-talent Martin Baltscheit, congenially illustrated by Claudia Weikert A farm full of lovable characters who form a family Great ‘Story Time’ fun for the whole family, supporting the ‘Growing up” age and difficulties with board books about everyday life challenges "Everything has to change!" the farm’s animals think and have lots of ideas about how to get the new farmer Claire to redesign the farm according to their wishes. “Better not,” thinks the Little Donkey No-Never-Ever, who likes life as it is. But before he knows it, he's in the middle of a plan for a ‘paradise’ on the farm. With the flash of his eyes, he can convince Claire of any task, no matter how absurd, that urgently needs to be done. So the cow gets a massage, the chicken coop a new coat of paint and the pig wallow becomes a pool. Until poor Claire collapses from exhaustion and the animals are forced to conclude contritely: a summer full of adventures? - Yes! But a paradise without Claire? - Better not! So now the animals pitch in and make sure that the farm becomes a paradise for everyone.

        Women's leisure in England 1920–60

        by Claire Langhame

        This insightful book offers a timely assessment of the complex relationship between women and leisure in England, drawing upon recent feminist theory. Departing from approaches which focus on particular activities or institutions, it places everyday experiences at its centre, presenting a wide-ranging and lively account of changing perceptions, representations and experiences of leisure across the period 1920-60. It addresses the nature of leisure within women's lives, examining shifting understandings of the concept and identifying areas of definitional ambiguity such as the 'family' holiday, shopping and handicrafts. Focusing upon experiences of leisure across the life cycle, it provides a detailed assessment of the particular forms of leisure enjoyed by women at distinct stages of their lives, including cinema-going, dancing, socialising and home-based pursuits. The book demonstrates that experiences and perceptions of leisure were fundamentally structured along life cycle lines: leisure in youth was often characterised by freedom and independence whilst leisure in adulthood became a vehicle for service and duty to others.

        Leonardo da Vinci and the ethics of style

        by Claire Farago

        Leonardo da Vinci and the ethics of style brings together a distinguished group of experts on Leonardo and the Renaissance, examining the ethical underpinnings of art history. The seven essays articulate the complexity of ways in which style involved ethical considerations during the early modern period, and still involves us in its conundrums. Looking at individual works and concepts, this fascinating collection covers subjects such as Leonardo's understanding of his role as a painter as that of a natural philosopher, his interests in visual perception and the understanding of visual sensations by the mind, how and why Leonardo's ideas on painting are at the core of art theory, how Leonardo addresses style in gendered terms, and 'style' as the historian's projection. This volume will be of great interest to all those studying or with an enthusiasm for Renaissance art history, art theory, cultural studies and philosophy. ;
