Knowing COVID-19 demonstrates how researchers in the humanities shone a light on some of the many hidden problems of COVID-19, in the very depths of the pandemic crisis. Drawing on eight COVID-19 research projects, the volume shows how humanities researchers, alongside colleagues in the clinical and life sciences, addressed some of the major critical unknowns about this new infectious disease - from the effects of racism to the risks of deploying shame; from how to design an effective instructional leaflet to how to communicate effectively to bus passengers. Across eight novel case studies, the book showcases how humanities research during a pandemic is not only about interpreting the crisis when it has safely passed, but how it can play a vital, collaborative and instrumental role as events are still unfolding.

Als Samuel Beckett, einer der innovativsten und einflußreichsten Autoren des 20.Jahrhunderts, 1989 starb, war er weltberühmt. Spät – erst mit der Pariser Uraufführung von En attendant Godot 1953 – richteten sich die Scheinwerfer auf den öffentlichkeitsscheuen Autor.Beckett, 1906 geboren, studierte in Dublin und in Paris, wo er sich James Joyce anschloß. Ein erster Band mit Erzählungen erschien 1934. Drei Jahre später verließ er Irland für immer und zog nach Paris, aus dem ihn die deutsche Besatzung vorübergehend vertrieb. Verlage wagten sich an seine Bücher kaum heran – bis der Erfolg des Godot diesen und den materiellen Schwierigkeiten ein Ende bereitete. Jedoch um sein Schreiben, um eine Verfassung, die ihm das Schreiben überhaupt erlaubte, hat Beckett ein Leben lang gerungen.James Knowlson, der das Beckett-Archiv in Reading aufbaute, hat Becketts Werk mehr als dreißig Jahre erforscht. Mehr als zwanzig war er mit dem Autor befreundet. Ein halbes Jahr vor seinem Tod autorisierte Beckett Knowlsons Biographieprojekt: Er »ist der, der mein Werk am besten kennt«. Auch zu Becketts Leben förderte Knowlson viel Unbekanntes ans Licht. So erhielt er als erster Zugang zu den aufregenden Tagebüchern von Becketts Deutschlandreise 1936/37. Mit seinen umfassenden Kenntnissen kann er zeigen, wie auch Becketts spätere Werke, die biographische Anspielungen eher vermeiden, in Leben und Denken des Autors verwurzelt sind.Fünf Jahre nach der englischen Erstveröffentlichung erscheint James Knowlsons große, definitive Biographie Samuel Becketts im Suhrkamp Verlag, der das Werk des irischen Nobelpreisträgers seit einem halben Jahrhundert deutsch in vielen (oft zwei- und dreisprachigen) Ausgaben

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.
