Literature & Literary StudiesDecember 2005Graham Swift
by Daniel Lea, Susan Williams
This book offers an accessible critical introduction to the work of Graham Swift, one of Britain's most significant contemporary authors. Through detailed readings of his novels and short stories from 'The Sweet Shop Owner' (1980) to 'The Light of Day' (2003), Daniel Lea lucidly addresses the key themes of history, loss, masculinity and ethical redemption, to present a fresh approach to Swift. This study proposes that one of the side-effects of modernity has been the destruction of traditional pathways of self and collective belief, leading to a loss of understanding between individuals about their duties to each other and to society. Swift's writing returns repeatedly to the question of what we can believe in when all the established markers of identity - family, community, gender, profession, history - have become destabilised. Lea suggests that Swift increasingly moves towards a notion of redemption through a lived ethical practice as the only means of finding solace in a world lacking a central symbolic authority. ;

Biography & True StoriesMarch 2024Barbara Comyns
A savage innocence
by Avril Horner
The extraordinary twentieth-century writer Barbara Comyns led a life as captivating as the narratives she spun. This pioneering biography reveals the journey of a woman who experienced hardship and single-motherhood before the age of thirty but went on to publish a sequence of novels that are unique in the English language. Comyns turned her hand to many jobs in order to survive, from artist's model to restoring pianos. Hundreds of unpublished letters reveal an occasionally desperate but resourceful and witty woman whose complicated life ranged from enduring poverty when young to mixing with spivs, spies and high society. While working as a housekeeper in her mid-thirties, Comyns began transforming the bleak episodes of her life into compelling fictions streaked with surrealism and deadpan humour. The Vet's Daughter (1959), championed by Graham Greene, brought her fame, although her use of the gothic and macabre divided readers and reviewers. This biography not only excavates Comyns's life but also reclaims her fiction, providing a timely reassessment of her literary contribution. It sheds new light on a remarkable author who deftly captured the complexities of human life.

April 2022Fritz, the Gorilla
Biography of a Fascinating Ape
by Jenny von Sperber
When Jenny von Sperber first met Fritz, the gorilla didn’t let her out of his sight. He was already over 50 years old then, but he was still extremely charismatic. One thing matters for the journalist: she wants to find out everything about Fritz’s life. Born in 1963, he was captured in the wild and came from Cameroon to Germany in 1966. At that time, apes were still regarded as a curiosity in zoos. When a ban was declared on the wild gorilla trade, Fritz was already a father of many youngsters. This fascinating gorilla-family saga not only recounts the eventful life of Fritz, but also shows the development in European zoos in handling wild animals. Nowadays, things have certainly improved. But there are still questions, for example, what does it do to us when we marvel at our closest relatives behind glass? And is it even still current to confine apes ... was it ever?

Humanities & Social SciencesNovember 2023Rethinking Norman Italy
Studies in honour of Graham A. Loud
by Joanna Drell, Paul Oldfield
This volume on Norman Italy (southern Italy and Sicily, c. 1000-1200) honours and reflects the pioneering scholarship of Graham A. Loud. An international group of scholars reassesses and recasts the paradigm by which Norman Italy has been conventionally understood, addressing varied subjects across four key themes: historiographies, identities and communities, religion and Church, and conquest. The chapters revise and refine our understanding of Norman Italy in the eleventh and twelfth centuries, demonstrating that it was not just a parochial Norman or Mediterranean entity but also an integral player in the medieval mainstream.

June 2009Max Frisch. Citoyen
by Max Frisch, Matthias Gunten
»Wir riefen Gastarbeiter, und es kamen Menschen.« Mit Sätzen wie diesem griff Max Frisch immer wieder in das öffentliche Leben der Schweiz ein. Als politischer Intellektueller war er auch in anderen Ländern ein gefragter Gesprächspartner: Er diskutierte mit Henry Kissinger über den Krieg in Vietnam, war 1977 in der Nacht, in der die »Landshut« gestürmt wurde, bei Helmut Schmidt in Bonn. Dem Citoyen, dem engagierten Bürger Max Frisch hat Matthias von Gunten sein Porträt gewidmet. Zu Wort kommt, neben Kissinger und Schmidt sowie Schriftstellerkollegen wie Christa Wolf, Günter Grass und Peter Bichsel, auch der Autor Max Frisch selbst – seine Tagebucheinträge und Reden werden gelesen von Reto Hänny. »Solche Stimmen fehlen heute in der Schweiz«, sagte von Gunten dazu der Neuen Zürcher Zeitung. Man möchte ergänzen: und anderswo.

July 2018Practical Feline Behaviour
Understanding Cat Behaviour and Improving Welfare
by Trudi Atkinson
Practical Feline Behaviour contains all the relevant information that a veterinary nurse or technician needs to understand and handle the behaviour and welfare of house cats, and to offer safe and practical advice to clients. There have been ground-breaking advances in our understanding of feline behaviour in recent years and, to protect the welfare of cats, it is increasingly important that anyone involved with their care, especially those in a professional capacity, keep up to date with these developments. This approachable and down-to-earth text describes the internal and external influences on feline behaviour; on communication, learning, social behaviour, the relationship between behaviour and disease, and the cat - human relationship. It also provides practical advice on how the welfare of cats in our care may be protected and how behaviour problems should be addressed and how to avoid them. In this book Trudi Atkinson draws on her extensive experience as a veterinary nurse and a Certified Clinical Animal Behaviourist to provide a rapid reference and an intensely practical feline behaviour resource for owners, breeders, veterinary professionals, shelter and cattery workers and anyone involved in the care of our feline companions. - Practical, down to earth guide detailing all aspects of feline behaviour - Rapid reference for instant access to information - Written by a well-known animal behaviourist who has extensive experience in treating feline behaviour problems and in advising clients to protect the welfare of their cats - Includes a foreword by John Bradshaw, School of Veterinary Science at University of Bristol, UK

October 2011Frau Jenny Treibel oder »Wo sich Herz zum Herzen find't«
Roman
by Theodor Fontane, Richard Brinkmann
Die Berliner Kommerzienrätin Jenny Treibel hat einen Hang zum Poetischen und Schwärmerischen – was sie nicht davon abhält, geschickt eine unstandesgemäße Heirat ihres Sohnes zu verhindern. »Frau Jenny Treibel«, erschienen 1892, gilt als der witzigste Roman Fontanes. »Das herrlichste, was wir haben, ist doch die Sprache«, heißt es im Roman, und in der Tat: Mehr andeutend als ausführend, geben die Dialoge ein klares und umfassendes Bild der Sprechenden und der Welt, in der sie leben.

Duvall, Martin Farr, John Heeley, Andrew Holden, Stanislav Ivanov, Heather Jeffrey, Gabriele Manella, Chris Ryan, Asterio Savelli, Hongdi Shen, John E Tunbridge, David Weaver, Paul F Wilkinson
This new book reviews all aspects of the phenomenon of mass tourism. It covers theoretical perspectives (including political economy, ethics, sustainability and environmentalism), the historical context, and the current challenges to domestic, intra-regional and international mass tourism. As tourism and tourist numbers continue to grow around the world, it becomes increasingly important that this subject is studied in depth and best practice applied in real-life situations. This book: - Is the first to address a range of theoretical issues relating to mass tourism; - Uses a wide selection of case studies to translate theory into practice, covering the historical rise and fall of UK seaside resorts, the increase in Chinese tourism, conflict between different mass tourism groups, destination transformation from mass to niche tourism, and specific problems facing cruise ships; - Is written by a range of international, established authors to give a global perspective on the subject. Finishing with a speculative chapter identifying potential future trends and challenges, this book forms an essential resource for all researchers and students within tourism studies. ; Section 1: Introduction1: Introduction: Mass Tourism in a Small WorldSection 2: Theoretical Approaches to Mass Tourism2: Mass Tourism Does Not Need Defending3: The Morality of Mass Tourism4: The Political Economy of Mass Tourism and its Contradictions5: A Theoretical Approach to Mass Tourism in Italy6: Sustainability and Mass Tourism: A Contradiction in Terms?7: Mass Tourism and the Environment: Issues and DilemmasSection 3: Historical Studies of Tourism Development8: The Dynamics of Tourism Development in Britain: The Profit Motive and that ‘Curious’ Alliance of Private Capital and the Local State9: From Holiday Camps to the All-inclusive: the ‘Butlinization’ of Tourism10: Decline Beside the Seaside: British Seaside Resorts and Declinism11: Mass Tourism and the US National Park Service System12: Transport and Tourism: The Perpetual LinkSection 4: Case Studies in Modern Mass Tourism13: Mass Tourism and China14: Mass Tourism in Thailand: The Chinese and Russians15: Mass Tourism in Bulgaria: The Force Awakens16: Mass Tourism in Mallorca: Examples from Calivià17: Tunisia: Mass Tourism in Crisis?18: From Blue to Grey?

September 2002Nachtblüte
Roman
by James Hamilton-Paterson, Ebba D. Drolshagen
James Hamilton-Paterson wurde 1941 als erstes Kind einer Arztfamilie - der Vater war Neurologe, die Mutter Anästhesistin - geboren. Seine Kindheit verbrachte er in Footscray in Kent. Seinen Schulabschluß machte er an der King´s School in Canterbury, wo er seine Liebe zur Musik entdeckte, komponierte und Stunden am Klavier improvisierte. Dort begann er auch, seine ersten Gedichte zu schreiben. 1961 wurde er zum Studium der Literatur am Exeter College in Oxford aufgenommen. Während dieser Zeit publizierte er zwei Gedichtbände, Option Three und Dutch Alps. Wie vor ihm schon Oscar Wilde wurde er hierfür im Alter von 23 Jahren in seinem letzten Studienjahr in Oxford mit dem Newdigate Prize for poetry ausgezeichnet. Nachdem er die Universität 1964 verlassen hatte, zog es ihn ins Ausland und er nahm seinen ersten Job als Sprachlehrer in Libyen an. Als Resultat einer Reise durch Südamerika, insbesondere Bolivien, Ende der sechziger Jahre schrieb er einen Bericht, der schließlich im New Statesman veröffentlicht wurde. Das Interesse an weiteren Artikeln bedeutete den Beginn seiner Tätigkeit als freier Journalist, die ihn unter anderem nach Vietnam führte, um während des Kriegs von dort zu berichten, sowie in alle wichtigen Länder der Region, die in den Vietnam-Konflikt aktiv verwickelt waren. Zudem schrieb er für das Times Literary Supplement und war Redakteur des Magazins Nova. Während dieser Zeit entstand ein Kinderbuch sowie das politische Sachbuch A very personal war. Zurück in England schrieb er in den siebziger Jahren Drehbücher für Videoreklame in Cambridge und verbrachte sogar einige Zeit als Pfleger am St Stephen`s Hospital, "to kill the medical bug", den Arztinstinkt, der ihm von seinen Eltern vererbt worden war. 1979 entdeckte er die Philippinen, den einzigen Platz in Südostasien, den er noch nicht besucht hatte. Nach anfänglicher Befremdung - "it felt completely Coca-Colaised" - verliebte er sich in Landschaft und Bevölkerung und beschloß, dort zu bleiben. Er lernte die Sprache sowie Sitten und Gebräuche des Landes, wie Fische mit der Lanze zu fangen und Häuser aus Bambus zu bauen. 1981 erwarb er zudem von einem Freund ein kleines Haus in der Toskana, wo er seitdem neun Monate des Jahres verbringt, wenn er nicht auf den Philippinen ist. Die Karriere von James Hamilton-Paterson, Mitglied der Royal Geographical Society, als Romancier und Sachbuchautor begann nach der ersten Publikation von Kurzgeschichten 1986 unter dem Titel The View from Mount Dog mit der Veröffentlichung von Playing with Water 1987, einem autobiographischen Werk über das alltägliche Leben auf den Philippinen. 1989 erscheint dann sein erster Roman Gerontius, der von einigen Kritikern als der beste englische Roman der achtziger Jahre bezeichnet wurde. Er wurde im gleichen Jahr mit dem Whitbread First Novel Award ausgezeichnet. Für das Radio dramatisiert gewann er auf dem International Radio Festival of New York 1990 die Goldmedaille. Es folgen weitere erfolgreiche Sachbücher (Seven-Tenths 1992, Three Miles Down 1998) und Romane, wie 1990 The Bell-Boy (der Titel der amerikanischen Ausgabe wurde auf Wunsch des Verlags geändert in That Time in Malomba, mit der Begründung, daß der Begriff "bellboy" für die Amerikaner seine Bedeutung verloren hätte), 1993 Griefwork und 1994 schließlich 1994 Ghosts of Manila, der 1998 als erster Roman von ihm in deutscher Übersetzung beim Insel Verlag erschien.

FictionNovember 2018Beard's Roman Women
By Anthony Burgess
by Graham Foster
Anthony Burgess draws upon an autobiographical episode to create Beard's Roman Women, the story of a man haunted by his first wife, presumed dead. But is she? A marvellously economical book, full-flavoured, funny, and heartfelt, showing its author at the height of his powers. This new edition is the first to be published with David Robinson's photographs for over 40 years. The text of the novel has been restored using the original typescripts, and Graham Foster's new introduction provides valuable insight into the fictional and biographical contexts of the novel. The text is fully annotated with a detailed set of notes and this edition includes the previously unpublished script for Burgess's television film By the Waters of Leman: Byron and Shelley at Geneva, and a rare piece of Burgess's writing about Rome.

Technology, Engineering & AgricultureSeptember 2018A History of Pesticides
by Graham A Matthews
In this fascinating book, Graham Matthews takes the reader through the history of the development and use of chemicals for control of pests, weeds, and vectors of disease. Prior to 1900 only a few chemicals had been employed as pesticides but in the early 1940s, as the Second World War raged, the insecticide DDT and the herbicide 2-4-D were developed. These changed everything. Since then, farmers have been using a growing list of insecticides, herbicides and fungicides to protect their crops. Their use has undoubtedly led to significant gains in agricultural production and reduction in disease transmission, but also to major problems: health concerns for both users of pesticides and the general public, the emergence of resistance in pest populations, and environmental problems. The book examines the development of legislation designed to control and restrict the use of pesticides, the emergence of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and the use of biological control agents as part of policy to protect the environment and encourage the sustainable use of pesticides. Finally, the use of new technologies in pest control are discussed including the use of genetic modification, targeted pesticide application and use of drones, alongside basic requirements for IPM such as crop rotations, close seasons and adoption of plant varieties with resistance to pests and diseases.
