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

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Aura Lewis, Silke Kleemann

        Eines Tages kehrte der junge Steve von einem Summer-Camp für neugierige Kids nach Hause zurück. Er hatte da eine riesengroße, geheimnisvolle Maschine gesehen: den ersten Computer. Wenige Jahre später gründete er mit seinem Freund eine Firma, die Garage von Steves Familie wurde zum Headquarter. Dort entstand der erste Apple. Heute blinkt das Äpfelchen überall auf der Welt. Einige Geräte sind so klein, dass man sie sogar in die Jackentasche stecken kann. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

        The Barefoot Doctor

        by Can Xue

        The novel tells of the story about the growth of a barefoot doctor in a village. By means of the experiences of Sister Yi the barefoot doctor, Mi Yi, Hui Ju and other characters, the author manages to expose the real dependence relationship between man and nature, and between man and man, so as to construct a new kind of relationship in the future world from a brand-new perspective with lots of astounding descriptions. The scenes depicted in the novel belong to the future world, the plots, however, firmly stick to the reality. Thus the real and free conceptions in the novel are both down-to-earth and overwhelmingly shocking, from which every ordinary reader can find resonance and gain strength for life in it. Once again, the outlook of philosophy and nature of Can Xue has delicately and simply stood out in the novel in a literary way.

        Child, nation, race and empire

        Child rescue discourse, England, Canada and Australia, 1850–1915

        by Margot Hillel, Shurlee Swain, Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        Child, nation, race and empire is an innovative, inter-disciplinary, cross cultural study that contributes to understandings of both contemporary child welfare practices and the complex dynamics of empire. It analyses the construction and transmission of nineteenth-century British child rescue ideology. Locating the origins of contemporary practice in the publications of the prominent English Child rescuers, Dr Barnardo, Thomas Bowman Stephenson, Benjamin Waugh, Edward de Montjoie Rudolf and their colonial disciples and literature written for children, it shows how the vulnerable body of the child at risk came to be reconstituted as central to the survival of nation, race and empire. Yet, as the shocking testimony before the many official enquiries into the past treatment of children in out-of-home 'care' held in Britain, Ireland, Australia and Canada make clear, there was no guarantee that the rescued child would be protected from further harm.

        A concordance to the rhymes of The Faerie Queene

        by Richard Brown, J. B. Lethbridge, J. B. Lethbridge

        This book is the first ever concordance to the rhymes of Spenser's epic. It gives the reader unparalleled access to the formal nuts and bolts of this massive poem: the rhymes which he used to structure its intricate stanzas. As well as the main concordance to the rhymes, the volume features a wealth of ancillary materials, which will be of value to both professional Spenserians and students, including distribution lists and an alphabetical listing of all the words in The Faerie Queene. The volume breaks new ground by including two studies by Richard Danson Brown and J. B. Lethbridge, so that the reader is given provocative analyses alongside the raw data about Spenser as a rhymer. Brown considers the reception of rhyme, theoretical models and how Spenser's rhymes may be reading for meaning. Lethbridge in contrast discusses the formulaic and rhetorical character of the rhymes. ;

        The Duchess of Malfi

        By John Webster

        by John Brown, David Bevington, John Brown, Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Helen Ostovich

        More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before, John Webster's The Duchess of Malfi is here presented in an improved, accessible and throughly up-to-date edition. Starting with the authoritative Revels Plays edition of 1964, John Russell Brown has augmented the notes and collations, and casts new light on Webster's dramatic dialogue and on the stage action. An entirely new introduction encompasses a stage history from its well-documented early performances right through to recent productions in the twenty first century. The bibliography has also been expanded. Students, actors, directors, academics and theatre-goers will find here a reappraisal of Webster's artistry in the greatest age of English theatre. ;

        La communauté juive de Cuba

        by Dr. Jay Levinson

        La communauté juive de Cuba : Les Années d'Or, 1906-1958 par le Dr. Jay Levinson En 1906, Manuel Hadida convoqua une réunion de onze juifs dans son bureau. Un membre de sa famille venait de mourir, et le but de la réunion était de fonder une synagogue et un cimetière juif pour les quelques cent « colons hébreux » de Cuba. Lors d'une autre réunion qui suivit peu de temps après, des responsables furent élus, mais pendant l'automne de le même année 1906, le trésorier nouvellement élu mourut à son tour. Ce furent les débuts de la communauté juive de Cuba, qui devait éventuellement atteindre le nombre de plus de 15 000 membres à son zénith pendant les années 1940 et 1950. Cette étude, première du genre et complète, retrace l'histoire de cette communauté, reconstituant de nombreux événements longtemps oubliés. Le premier rabbin sur l'île serait venu de Floride, où il aurait été le propriétaire d'une fabrique de crème glacée, et se serait rendu à Santiago de Cuba et à La Havane. Au cours de la Deuxième Guerre Mondiale, un abattoir de viande cachère aurait fonctionné à Cuba pour les soldats de la U.S. Army. Meyer Lansky, connu pour ses activités clandestines, a présenté une application pour devenir membre d'une synagogue de La Havane. Le livre permet aussi de mieux comprendre certains points d'histoire mieux connus. Le refus du gouvernement de Cuba d'autoriser le paquebot St. Louis à laisser débarquer ses passagers est examiné avec une vision de la fuite des juifs de l'Europe nazie, particulièrement en direction du Mandat de Palestine, où la politique d'immigration des britannique était en train de changer (ce qu'ignoraient les cubains). La construction de nouvelles synagogues à la veille de la Révolution est considérée dans le contexte des nouveaux riches et de la migration vers les banlieues. Jay Levinson, un fonctionnaire civil en retraite et écrivain indépendant, a publié un grand nombre de livres et d'articles à propos de ses nombreux voyages dans plus de 50 pays. Il écrit beaucoup à propos des sites juifs et de histoire de ce peuple. Levinson a un doctorat de l'Université de New York et il est actuellement professeur invite au John Jay College. Pour écrire ses livres, le Dr. Levinson interroge un grand nombre de gens, consulte des documents dans les archives, examine les journaux de l'époque correspondante, visite les sites, et il a parcouru les cimetières de Cuba à la recherche d'informations – même sur les pierres tombales. Une édition en anglais pour l'Amérique du Nord a été publiée en 2007.
