Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2017The French empire at War, 1940–1945
by Martin Thomas
The French empire at war draws on original research in France and Britain to investigate the history of the divided French empire - the Vichy and the Free French empires - during the Second World War. What emerges is a fascinating story. While it is clear that both the Vichy and Free French colonial authorities were only rarely masters of their own destiny during the war, preservation of limited imperial control served them both in different ways. The Vichy government exploited the empire in an effort to withstand German-Italian pressure for concessions in metropolitan France and it was key to its claim to be more than the mouthpiece of a defeated nation. For Free France too, the empire acquired a political and symbolic importance which far outweighed its material significance to the Gaullist war effort. As the war progressed, the Vichy empire lost ground to that of the Free French, something which has often been attributed to the attraction of the Gaullist mystique and the spirit of resistance in the colonies. In this radical new interpretation, Thomas argues that it was neither of these. The course of the war itself, and the initiatives of the major combatant powers, played the greatest part in the rise of the Gaullist empire and the demise of Vichy colonial control.

Gehirn, Geist und Sprache
by Maxwell Bennett, Daniel C. Dennett, Peter Hacker, John R. Searle, Joachim Schulte, Daniel Robinson
Als der Neurowissenschaftler Maxwell Bennett und der Philosoph Peter Hacker den Klassiker Philosophical Foundations of Neuroscience veröffentlichten, war dies die erste systematische Untersuchung der begrifflichen Grundlagen der Neurowissenschaften und der Startschuss für den bis heute intensiv geführten Kampf um die Deutungsmacht über den menschlichen Geist. Besonders kritisch fiel seinerzeit die Auseinandersetzung mit den einflussreichen Arbeiten von Daniel Dennett und John Searle aus – also mit jenen beiden Denkern, die von der neurowissenschaftlichen Seite gerne als philosophische Gewährsmänner herangezogen werden. In Neurowissenschaft und Philosophie diskutieren die vier kongenialen »Streithähne« miteinander.

The ArtsApril 2019Daniel Calparsoro
by Nuria Triana-Toribio, Ann Davies, Andy Willis
Daniel Calparsoro, a director who has made a crucial contribution to contemporary Spanish and Basque cinema, has provoked strong reactions from the critics. Reductively dismissed as a works of crude violence by those lamenting a 'lost golden age' of Spanish filmmaking, Calparsoro's films in fact reveal a more complex interaction with trends and traditions in both Spanish and Hollywood cinema. This book is the first full-length study of the director's work, from his early social-realist films set in the Basque Country to his later forays into the genres of the war and horror. It offers an in-depth film-by-film analysis while simultaneously exploring the director's position in the contemporary Spanish context, the tension between directors and critics and the question of national cinema in an area - the Basque Country - of heightened national and regional sensitivities.

Bin ich meines Bruders Hüter?
by Daniel Gelleri
Bin ich meines Bruders Hüter? von Daniel Gelleri BÜRGERKRIEG IN ISRAEL! Ist eines der mutigsten demokratischen Experimente fehlgeschlagen? Während die arabische Welt Genugtuung äußert, breitet sich in Europa und den USA Bestürzung aus. In dieser lebendig erzählten Geschichte zeichnet Daniel Gelleri, Autor des Erfolgromans Iris, das Leben von fünf Generationen einer jüdisch-israelischen Familie nach, deren Mitglieder die Hoffnungen und Träume ihrer Vorfahren teilen und gleichzeitig unter den Auseinandersetzungen, Alpträumen und Ängsten im heutigen Israel leiden. 150 Jahre nach der Geburt Isaak Isserlichs, dem Sproß einer prominenten osteuropäischen Rabbinerfamilie aus Krakau, bekämpfen sich seine Urenkel in den Jerusalemer Bergen. Sind diese blutigen Auseinandersetzungen ein Hinweis auf die nahende Apokalypse? Die israelische Regierung beschließt, sich auf die Grenzen des Jahres 1967 zurückzuziehen und löst damit eine große ideologische Kontroverse aus. Der ohnehin brüchige gesellschaftliche Konsens zerreißt. Was bisher nur hinter verschlossenen Türen debattiert wurde, eskaliert jetzt auf den Straßen jeder größeren Stadt Israels zum gewaltsamen Konflikt. Jede Seite besteht darauf, den Staat nach ihren Vorstellungen zu formen. Niemand ist bereit, nachzugeben und ein Alptraum wird wahr: BÜRGERKRIEG! In dem kleinen Land, dessen Bürger den zahlreichen äußeren Feinden fünfundsiebzig Jahre lang erfolgreich standgehalten haben, geschieht das Undenkbare: Der Feind kommt jetzt nicht von außen, sondern vom Inneren des Landes. Jede Seite kämpft für die eigene Wahrheit, den eigenen Glauben und die eigene Vision für Israel. Daniel Gelleri (geb. 1955) wuchs als säkularer Jude auf. Er kehrte sich mit fünfundzwanzig dem orthodoxen jüdischen Glauben zu. Mehrere Jahre lebte er mit seiner Familie in der Siedlung Bat Ayin im Westjordanland: Die Ermordung von Ministerpräsident Rabin durch einen orthodoxen Fanatiker erschütterte Gelleri so tief, daß er seinen Glauben einer erneuten Prüfung unterzog. Er kehrte der religiösen Welt den Rücken zu und nahm seinen früheren säkularen Lebensstil wieder auf. Er ist ein hochrangiger israelischer Reserveoffizier. Iris, sein erster kürzlich veröffentlichter erster Roman wurde ein großer Erfolg. Rechte für die deutsche Ausgabe und andere Sprachen sind noch erhältlich!

AM I MY BROTHER’S KEEPER?
An Israeli Political Novel Predicting a Civil War
by Daniel Gelleri
CIVIL WAR IN ISRAEL! Though it is seemingly impossible, world media are screaming the headline. Has the greatest experiment in democracy utterly failed? As the Arab world gloats, the United States – the world’s only surviving superpower – is faced with momentous agony. On the stage of international politics, did it back the wrong actor? One hundred and ten years after the birth of Yitzhak Isaac Isserlish, descendant of a prominent East-European rabbinical line, in Krakow, Poland, his great-grandsons are at war with one another in the hills of Jerusalem – a war that may truly prove to the world that Armageddon is at hand! Following the government's decision to return Israel to its pre-1967 borders, ideological controversy tears apart the paper-thin fabric of what the world has always viewed as a beacon of hope, a secure monolith in a sea of discord. What was formerly whispered behind closed doors now explodes onto the streets of every major city and town. Each side is adamant in its view of the final shape of the country. Each side is also intent upon achieving its desired goal. The greatest fear becomes reality: CIVIL WAR! Israeli citizens confront one another, brother against brother. They all love their country, all have its best interest at heart, and all fear for its safety, but conversely and tragically each finds his opponents' vision to be an abomination. In a tiny nation that has faced the enemy without fear for seventy-five years, the impossible is happening: the enemy is within. The enemy is not at the gates; the enemy is inside the gates! Each side is fighting for its own justice, its own faith, its own truth, and its own vision of a Biblical Israel redeemed. In a tightly-woven transgenerational saga, Daniel Gelleri, author of the popular novel Iris, traces the lives of five generations of one Jewish-Israeli family whose members share not only time, place, hopes, and dreams with their forefathers, but who are deeply affected by the nightmares and fears of their own lives. Daniel Gelleri, a senior officer in the Israel Defense Force (IDF) Reserves, was originally a secular Jew, who became Orthodox at the age of 25. He lived with his family on the West Bank settlement of Bat-Ayin for ten years. When Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a Jewish extremist, Gelleri began to reexamine his faith and beliefs. After a period of soul searching he returned to his original secular life style and abandoned the religious world in which he had lived. His first novel, Iris, was received with great success.

Suis-je, moi, le gardien de mon frère?
by Daniel Gelleri
Suis-je, moi, le gardien de mon frère? – Roman par Daniel Gelleri La guerre civile en Israël ! Bien que cela paraisse impossible, ce titre fait la une dans les médias du monde entier. Est-ce que la plus grande expérience de la démocratie a finalement échoué ? Tandis que le monde arabe triomphe, les Etats-Unis – la seule superpuissance encore survivante – sont confrontés par un effroi considérable. Sur le champ de la politique internationale, ont-ils parié sur le mauvais cheval? Cent dix ans après la naissance à Cracovie, en Pologne, de Yitzhak Isaac Isserlish, le descendant d’une lignée de rabbins d’Europe de l’Est de premier plan, ses arrière petits fils sont en guerre l’un contre l’autre dans les collines de Jérusalem – une guerre qui pourrait réellement prouver au monde que l’heure d’Armageddon a sonné! Dans une saga transgénérationnelle finement tramée, Daniel Gelleri, l’auteur du roman populaire Iris, retrace la vie de cinq générations d’une famille juive israélienne dont les membres n’ont pas seulement hérité de leurs ancêtres le temps, l’espace, les espoirs et les rêves, mais en sont profondément affectés dans les cauchemars et les terreurs de leurs propres vies. A la suite de la décision du gouvernement de faire revenir Israël à ses frontières d’avant 1967, la controverse idéologique déchire le tissues fragile de ce que le monde avait toujours considéré comme une lueur d’espoir, un havre d’unité dans un océan de discorde. Ce que l’on chuchotait auparavant entre quatre murs explose désormais dans les rues de chaque bourgade et ville importante. Chaque parti reste inflexible dans sa vision de la forme finale que doit prendre le pays. Chaque parti, aussi, a l’intention de réaliser l’objectif désiré. La plus grande crainte devient une réalité : LA GUERRE CIVILE ! Les citoyens d’Israël se confrontent l’un l’autre, frère contre frère. Chacun aime son pays, ils ont tous à cœur ses meilleurs intérêts, et tous ont peur pour sa sécurité; mais d’une manière paradoxale et tragique, chacun trouve la vision de ses opposants être une abomination. Dans une nation minuscule qui a su affronter l’ennemi sans peur durant soixante-quinze ans, l’impossible arrive: l’ennemi est à l’intérieur. L’ennemi n’est pas aux frontières; l’ennemi est à l’intérieur des frontières! Chaque parti combat pour sa propre justice, pour sa propre foi, pour sa propre vérité, et pour sa propre vision d’un Israël biblique libéré. Daniel Gelleri, un officier supérieur de réserve des Forces de Défense d’Israël (IDF), était autrefois un juif non pratiquant, qui est devenu orthodoxe à l’âge de 25 ans. Il vécut avec sa famille dans la colonie de Cisjordanie de Bat-Ayin pendant dix ans. Quand le Premier Ministre d’Israël Yitzhak Rabin a été assassiné par un extrémiste juif, Gelleri se mit à refaire l’examen de sa foi et de ses convictions. Après une période d’examen de conscience, il revint à son style de vie non religieux d’origine et abandonna le monde religieux dans lequel il vivait. On premier roman, Iris, a été reçu avec beaucoup de succès.

Business, Economics & LawNovember 2019Dark Tourism and Pilgrimage
by Daniel H Olsen, Maximiliano E Korstanje
In recent years there has been a growth in both the practice and research of dark tourism; the phenomenon of visiting sites of tragedy or disaster. Expanding on this trend, this book examines dark tourism through the new lens of pilgrimage. It focuses on dark tourism sites as pilgrimage destinations, dark tourists as pilgrims, and pilgrimage as a form of dark tourism. Taking a broad definition of pilgrimage so as to consider aspects of both religious and non-religious travel that might be considered pilgrimage-like, it covers theories and histories of dark tourism and pilgrimage, pilgrimage to dark tourism sites, and experience design. A key resource for researchers and students of heritage, tourism and pilgrimage, this book will also be of great interest to those studying anthropology, religious studies and related social science subjects.

April 2016Den Bann brechen
Religion als natürliches Phänomen
by Daniel C. Dennett, Frank Born
Religion ist, wie jedes andere menschliche oder nichtmenschliche Phänomen, den Naturgesetzen unterworfen und somit auch naturwissenschaftlich erforschbar. So lautet Daniel Dennetts provokante These. In seiner Untersuchung konzentriert er sich vor allem auf die Gründe und Bedingungen für die Entstehung der Religion, ihre verschiedenen Erscheinungsformen und Ausprägungen sowie auf die Mannigfaltigkeit ihrer Inhalte. Warum hat die menschliche Evolution ein so kostspieliges Phänomen hervorgebracht und am Leben gehalten? Wem nützt die Religion? Ist Religiosität genetisch bedingt oder sind es eher religiöse »Meme«, die sich erfolgreicher vermehrt haben als ihre Konkurrenten? Dennett möchte den Bann brechen, der für heilig gehaltene Phänomene häufig umgibt, und prüfen, ob die Religion einer wissenschaftlichen Analyse standhält. Nur dann kann sie ihm zufolge ihre Legitimität behaupten.

June 2017Die Korrespondenz
by J. D. Daniels, Frank Jakubzik
»Existenzielle Unbehaustheit« mag eine große alte Formel sein, aber sie beschreibt doch die Überforderungen, mit denen wir heute zu kämpfen haben: Vorgezeichnete Karrierewege waren einmal, Überlieferungen sind abgerissen, Rollenvorbilder funktionieren nicht mehr. Besonders zu leiden haben darunter oft Männer: Man spürt sich nicht, man grübelt zu viel, man hätte gern mehr Abenteuer – »toxische Männlichkeit«. In sechs essayistischen Briefen, verfasst aus unterschiedlichen Lebenssituationen heraus, erkundet J. D. Daniels die Dilemmata unserer Zeit – und (vermeintliche) Wege, ihnen zu entkommen: Kampfsport, Reisen, Gruppentherapie, die Flucht in Verschwörungstheorien. Daniels schreibt entwaffnend offen, mit scharfem Witz und knapper Brillanz. Seine Briefe fügen sich zu einem düster-ironischen Panorama, das »jeder lesen sollte, der sich für das moderne Leben interessiert« (John Jeremiah Sullivan).
