      • Gerstenberg Verlag GmbH & Co. KG

        The Publishing House and its History Established in St. Petersburg in 1792, today Gerstenberg is one of Germany’s oldest publishing houses. A family business, the publishing house moved to new headquarters in Hildesheim in 1796 and to this day occupies the same address in the old city marketplace as it did then. The most important branch of the publishing business, however, was the Hildesheimer Allgemeine Zeitung, which, incidentally, is the oldest daily newspaper still in existence in Germany. Today, the name of Gerstenberg is synonymous with delightful, innovative books of aesthetic design and high-quality content for children and young adults that compete very successfully also on the international market. An adult range comprising illustrated books, non-fiction and cookery books also forms part of the Gerstenberg portfolio.   Program Gerstenberg publishes board picture books, picture books, children’s and young adult narrative literature and non-fiction. With Eric Carle’s »The Very Hungry Caterpillar« (»Die kleine Raupe Nimmersatt«) and Rotraut Susanne Berner’s ›discovery picture books‹ (›Wimmelbücher‹), Gerstenberg became one of the best-known children’s book publishers. In 1999, the anthology of poetry »Dunkel war’s, der Mond schien helle«, came out as the first in Gerstenberg’s series of household compendiums, a segment that has since developed into a main pillar of the program. The publishing house has brought out some highly respected developments of its own in the children’s knowledge-book series ›Abenteuer! Maja Nielsen erzählt‹.

        The Buddhist Tradition of Spells in the Dhāraṇīsaṃgraha Collections

        by Gergely Hidas

        This volume provides a sourcebook for a largely unresearched Buddhist textual tradition: the Dhāraṇīsaṃgraha, or "spell collections," which have been present in South Asia – especially in Nepal – for at least eight hundred years. For modern scholarship, these diverse compendiums are valuable sources of spell texts, many of which survive in Sanskrit only in such manuscripts.

        Sock on the Loose

        by Julianna Mrena, Dorottya Szert-Szabó

        There was once a sock. There was no other half. And there were a lot of problems with it anyway. Worn only occasionally, but mostly never. And it's no wonder, really.Julianna Mrena, the author of The Tale of the Little Sloth Who Wouldn't Go to Sleep, has this time put into rhyme the adventures of a lovable half pair of socks to show that there is a place in the world for everyone, where they are recognised and accepted for who they are. Dorottya Szert-Szabó's colourful, clownish pictures are a worthy companion to the text of the tale.

        Spatialities

        The Geographies of Art and Architecture

        by Rugg, Judith

        Spatialities draws on a distinguished panel of artists, cultural theorists, architects, and geographers to offer a nuanced conceptual framework for understanding the ever-evolving spatial orderings that materially constitute our world. With chapters covering a wide range of topics, including the interstitial, the liminal and relational processes of deformation, and distribution and stratification as a means of spatial reflection, this volume shows space to be less a defining category and more an abstract terrain whose boundaries may be continually deconstructed and reassembled.

        A Cultural History of Conjuring

        by Mangan, Michael

        Magic and conjuring inhabit the boundaries and the borderlands of performance. The conjuror’s act of demonstrating the apparently impossible, the uncanny, the marvellous, or the grotesque challenges the spectator’s sense of reality.

        Hungarian Art

        Confrontation and Revival in the Modern Movement

        by Éva Forgács

        “I was unable to put down [this book]; one that will be used by those interested in the field for a long time to come.”– Dr. Oliver Botar, Hungarian Cultural Studies   Insightful essays, monographic texts, and rarely-seen images trace from birth to maturation several generations of Hungarian Modernism, from the avant-garde to neo-avant-garde. Éva Forgács corrects long-standing misconceptions about Hungarian art while examining the work and social milieu of dozens of important Hungarian artists. The book also paints a fascinating image of twentieth-century Budapest as a microcosm of the social and political turmoil raging across Europe up to and beyond the collapse of the Soviet Era.
