View Rights PortalAuf dem Sandberg, einer Siedlung am Rande einer polnischen Kleinstadt regieren die Frauen. Sie träumen von einem Schwiegersohn aus Castrop-Rauxel, denn wenn sie selbst schon nicht das große Los gezogen haben, sollen wenigstens ihre Töchter glücklich werden. Aber die haben eigene Vorstellungen von Glück … Joanna Bator erzählt von den Träumen, Ängsten und Hoffnungen einer von Krieg und Flucht traumatisierten Generation und von der Rebellion und Freiheitssehnsucht ihrer Kinder.
Is there a lineage of goddesses that claims the evolutionary power of female sexuality? And if so, why were they pushed to the shadows and demeaned as harlots? Was Mary Magdalene one of them, and what were her teachings? Dr. Joanna Kujawa argues that in the process of recovering the healing power of the Goddess we have focused solely on the mother archetype and left out the other Goddess, who is often represented in mythical, historical, and Gnostic sources as wise, mysterious, and in the possession of the healing power of Eros. Learn about Mary Magdalene’s portrayal in the gnostic gospels as a teacher in her own right and Jesus' intimate partner, the possibility of her life as an alchemist in Egypt, and her last years in Southern France. Find out if Mary Magdalene was the same person as Mary the Prophetess of Egypt and her connection to the mysterious Cathars, Black Madonnas, and Knights Templar. Whether looking at Mary Magdalene, Sophia, Aphrodite, Inanna, Hathor, Isis, or the goddesses of esoteric Hinduism, Dr. Kujawa finds the archetype of The Other Goddess-the bearer of the mysteries of sexual alchemy that ends the division between sexuality and spirituality.

Nicht nur seine bekannten Romane zählen zum eindrucksvollen literarischen Werk Jurek Beckers – er war auch ein wunderbarer, geistreicher Briefeschreiber. »Ihr Unvergleichlichen« enthält eine Sammlung von zwischen 1969 und 1996 entstandenen Briefen: an Beckers Verleger, an Lektoren, Kritiker, Journalisten und Schriftstellerkollegen, an das Präsidium des Schriftstellerverbandes der DDR und die Polizei Delmenhorst ebenso wie an den Kundendienst eines Elektrogeräteherstellers.
The age of Charlemagne was a crucible for change in the history of Europe, bridging the divide between the medieval and the classical worlds and setting the political and cultural tone for centuries to come. This book focuses directly on the reign of Charlemagne, bringing together a wide range of approaches and sources from the diverse voices of fifteen of the top scholars of early medieval Europe. The contributors have taken a number of original aproaches to the subject, from the fields of archaeology and numismatics to thoroughly-researched essays on key historical texts. The essays are embedded in the scholarship of recent decades but also offer insights into new areas and new approaches for research. A full bibliography of works in English as well as key reading in European languages is provided, making the volume essential reading for experienced scholars as well as students new to the history of the early middle ages. ;
