Die Haitianische Revolution (1791-1804) war die einzige erfolgreiche Revolution versklavter Menschen und begründete mit der Republik Haiti den dritten Verfassungsstaat der modernen Welt. Dennoch verschwindet sie in Geschichtsschreibung und Philosophie häufig hinter der Amerikanischen und der Französischen Revolution. Im Anschluss an die postkoloniale und feministische politische Theorie legt Jeanette Ehrmann sowohl eine umfassende Deutung der revolutionären Ideen und Praktiken als auch der Dialektik der Emanzipation vor. Sie zeigt, wie tief Kolonialismus, Versklavung und Rassismus in das Selbstverständnis der Moderne eingeschrieben sind und eröffnet einen kritischen Horizont für eine Dekolonisierung des Politischen.

The Complete Works of Yungang Grottoes is a collection of photographic materials reflecting different periods, different caves, different artistic styles and artistic characteristics of Yungang Grottoes. It contains 20 volumes, each presenting a single Yungang cave with more than 400 pictures and several professional academic papers on the cultural and artistic characteristics of caves. As a royal art project symbolizing the imperial power of Tuoba in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Yungang Grottoes are large in scale, rich in content, exquisite in carving, and vivid in appearance. They absorb and integrate the diverse cultures of ancient nationalities, and represent the highest level of carving in the world in the 5th century. In 2001, the Yungang Grottoes were listed on the World Heritage List. The Complete Works of Yungang Grottoes displays the treasures of the Yungang Grottoes in an unprecedented scale, high-definition, and panoramic view, which is regarded as a recording and preserving archive of great values. For more than 1500 years, the statues of the Yungang Grottoes have been weathered and ruined by wind and rain. In the past, most of the photography focused on the contemporarily perfect Buddha statues, but the remaining statues, even the best-preserved ones, are disappearing year by year from people's sight. The Complete Works of Yungang Grottoes collects image data of them, makes the documentary files, and has them published to the public, in this way retaining the perfect art in changes.

This series contains about 1,800 modern prints collected by Lu Xun at that time, which authored by nearly 200 domestic printmakers and currently in the Lu Xun Memorial Hall in Shanghai and the Lu Xun Museum in Beijing. It is showcasing the glorious history of modern Chinese woodcut art: In the 1920s and 1930s, in order to guide the artistic direction of Chinese literary youth, smashed the KMT’s counter-revolutionary cultural " encirclement and suppression", Mr. Lu Xun held a "woodcut workshop" in Shanghai, and cultivated a group of emerging woodcut backbone. These backbones led young artists in various regions of the country to create a large number of realistic works reflecting the suffering and tragic fate of the people at the bottom of the society at that time. They cruelly lashed the dark reality of society and called for national salvation and survival. These young woodcutters sent their woodcut works to Lu Xun, who not only guided their creation personally, but also spared no effort to collect, publicize and promote them to the public. With the active advocacy and support of Mr. Lu Xun, the emerging woodcut movement in China has developed vigorously, driving the modernization of Chinese art and leaving an indelible glorious footprint in the history of Chinese modern culture and art. This complete collection is a companion to the The Complete Collection of Foreign Prints by Lu Xun published in 2014.

Djuna Barnes (1892–1982) gehört zu den größten amerikanischen Autoren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nightwood ist ihr wichtigstes Buch, ein Klassiker der Moderne par excellence. Der Roman, erschienen 1936, wird neu, mit einem Nachwort von Jeanette Winterson, vorgelegt. Nachtgewächs, der Roman der Liebe einer Frau zu einer anderen Frau – einer Leidenschaft, die unstillbares Verlangen in der einen und tiefe Einsamkeit in der andern weckt –, wäre nicht geschrieben worden, wenn die Liebe zu der Bildhauerin Thelma Wood die Autorin nicht bis in die tiefste Verzweiflung geführt hätte.
