        Berühmte Frauenpaare

        by Joey Horsley, Luise F. Pusch

        Für eine Frau, die etwas werden will, ist die traditionelle Ehe ein stabiles Hindernis. Viele Frauen, die das erkannt haben, taten sich lieber mit einer anderen Frau zusammen – zur Steigerung der Lebensfreude und Schaffenskraft und zum Schutz gegen gesellschaftliche Härten. Acht Frauenpaare werden in diesem Band vorgestellt: alte Bekannte wie Gertrude Stein und Alice B. Toklas, Anita Augspurg und Lida Gustava Heymann, Unbekannte wie Eugenie Schumann und Marie Fillunger sowie leuchtende Sterne am Frauenhimmel mit ihren Gefährtinnen im Hintergrund: die Malerin Rosa Bonheur mit Nathalie Micas und später Anna Klumpke, die Dichterin Amy Lowell mit Ada Russell, die Biologin Rachel Carson mit Dorothy Freeman. Notgemeinschaften wie Milena Jésenska und Margarete Buber-Neumann oder Katherine Mansfield mit Ida Baker runden das Bild ab.

        Consummatus

        Roman

        by Sibylle Lewitscharoff

        Stuttgart, Café Rösler, Samstag, den 3. April 2004 (vormittags) – ein Mann trinkt. Ralph Zimmermann ist allein mit sich und dem Alkohol. Oder auch nicht. Bei ihm sind Andy Warhol, Edie Sedgwick, Jim Morrison und nicht zuletzt seine Geliebte Joey. Tot zwar allesamt, aber doch anwesend genug, um einen Stift zumindest auf glatter Fläche ein paar Millimeter rollen zu lassen. Und natürlich, um zu kommentieren, was Ralphi-Ralph erzählt: von sich, seinem Leben, seiner Liebe und seinem eigenen Ausflug ins Totenreich. »Falls es Sie interessiert, was uns nach dem Tod erwartet und was Jim Morrison und Andy Warhol heute so treiben, kommen Sie um diesen Roman nicht herum. Und falls es Sie nicht interessiert, dann sind Sie wahrscheinlich schon tot und haben es nur noch nicht gemerkt.« Denis Scheck in Druckfrisch, ARD

        Joey Jacobson's War

        A Jewish Canadian Airman in the Second World War

        by Peter J. Usher

        In the spring of 1940 Canada sent hundreds of highly trained volunteers to serve in Britain's Royal Air Force as it began a concerted bombing campaign against Germany. Nearly half of them were killed or captured within a year. This is the story of one of those airmen, as told through his own letters and diaries as well as those of his family and friends. Joey Jacobson, a young Jewish man from Westmount on the Island of Montreal, trained as a navigator and bomb-aimer in Western Canada. On arriving in England he was assigned to No. 106 Squadron, a British unit tasked with the bombing of Germany. Joey Jacobson’s War tells, in his own words, why he enlisted, his understanding of strategy, tactics, and the effectiveness of the air war at its lowest point, how he responded to the inevitable battle stress, and how he became both a hopeful idealist and a seasoned airman. Jacobson's written legacy as a serviceman is impressive in scope and depth and provides a lively and intimate account of a Jewish Canadian's life in the air and on the ground, written in the intensity of the moment, unfiltered by the memoirist's reflection, revision, or hindsight. Accompanying excerpts from his father's diary show the maturation of the relationship between father and son in a dangerous time.

        Safe for Decolinization

        The Eisenhower Administration, Britain, and Singapore

        by S.R. Joey Long (author)

        How America left its indelible footprint on the culture and politics of SingaporeIn the first decade after World War II, Singapore underwent radical political and socioeconomic changes with the progressive retreat of Great Britain from its Southeast Asian colonial empire. The United States, under the Eisenhower administration, sought to fill the vacuum left by the British retreat and launched into a campaign to shape the emerging Singapore nation-state in accordance with its Cold War policies. Based on a wide array of Chinese- and English-language archival sources from Great Britain, the Netherlands, Singapore, and the United States, Safe for Decolonization examines in depth the initiatives—both covert and public—undertaken by the United States in late-colonial Singapore.Apart from simply analyzing the effect of American activities on the politics of the island, author S. R. Joey Long also examines their impact on the relationship between Great Britain and the United States, and how the Anglo-American nuclear policy toward China and the establishment of a regional security institution (the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization) affected the security and decolonization of a strategic British base.Long sketches a highly detailed and nuanced account of the relations between the United States, Great Britain, and Singapore. He not only describes the often clumsy attempts by covert American operatives to sway top political leaders, infiltrate governments, influence labor unions, and shape elections, but he also shows how Eisenhower’s public initiatives proved to have far-reaching positive results and demonstrates that the Eisenhower administration’s policies toward Singapore, while not always well advised, nonetheless helped to lay the foundation for friendly Singapore–U.S. relations after 1960.As the first multi-archival work on the U.S. intervention in Singapore, Safe for Decolonization makes an important contribution to the literature on Southeast Asia–U.S. relations. It will be of interest to specialists in decolonization, diplomatic history, modern Southeast Asian history, and the history of the early Cold War.
