        Schmerz Camp

        by Patty Kim Hamilton

        Sieben Frauen in einer renommierten, surrealen Schmerzklinik: Im ewigen Kreislauf von Therapien und Gesprächen mit den Ärzt:innen probieren die Patientinnen Medikamente aus, töpfern, meditieren, treiben Sport – der Schmerz aber bleibt. Scheinbar geschieht mit den Frauen in der Klinik nichts und doch ist alles in ständiger, minimaler Bewegung. Zeit vergeht hier anders. Dabei ist der alternde, weiblich gelesene Körper ein zentrales Motiv. Sprache und Dialoge basieren auf realen Gesprächen und Klinikfragebögen – werden bereichert von chorischen Passagen, Lyrik und performativen Naturbildern, die eine neue Dimension aufmachen: Wo finden wir Trost und wie kann ein Weg durch den Schmerz aussehen? Das Theaterstück Schmerz Camp ist ein Plädoyer für das ehrliche Zuhören, für mehr Achtsamkeit und eine solidarische Gemeinschaft. Patty Kim Hamilton sucht darin nach dem Alltäglichen, dem Humor, der Zärtlichkeit, dem Einfachen vor dem dunklen Abgrund und findet dabei eine virtuose Sprache für etwas, das sich mit Worten kaum fassen lässt.

        Field Guide to the Forest Trees of Uganda

        For Identification and Conservation

        by James Kalema, Alan Hamilton

        This book is a guide for the identification of the indigenous forest trees of Uganda. It will be useful for those who wish to contribute towards the conservation of the forests or to plant indigenous trees. Information is provided on how to propagate and cultivate about 80 of the most valuable species. Indigenous trees provide numerous resources useful for welfare and development. They include many types of timber and non-timber forest products, such as craft materials, foods and medicines. The proximity of indigenous forest helps to moderate the local climate, making it more suitable for agriculture. Indigenous forests protect springs, therefore safeguarding water supplies more effectively than exotic trees such as pines and eucalyptus. All 450 known indigenous tree species from the forests are included. Both scientific and local names are provided, the latter in 21 languages. Local names facilitate access to knowledge and values traditionally attached to the species, useful when planning pathways of development firmly rooted in local culture. The book will be invaluable for botanists, foresters, rural development workers and members of the general public concerned about contributing to conservation and sustainable development in Uganda. Many of the species grow in neighbouring countries, so the book has relevance there too.
