        Mein kleines Prachttier

        Roman

        by Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, Helga van Beuningen

        Dies ist die Geschichte eines Mannes und eines jungen Mädchens, die Geschichte einer fatalen Liebe von animalischer Wucht und moralischer Zweifelhaftigkeit. Ein langer, heißer Sommer in einem abgelegenen, strenggläubig calvinistischen Dorf. Auf dem Hof eines Milchbauern nähert sich der Tierarzt der vierzehnjährigen Tochter an. Das Mädchen, auf der verzweifelten Suche nach Geborgenheit, verwechselt Begehren mit väterlicher Zuneigung. Der Sommer schreitet voran und die beiden entwickeln eine immer gefährlichere Faszination füreinander … In der Begründung der Jury des Preises der Leipziger Buchmesse, den die Übersetzerin Helga van Beuningen 2022 erhalten hat, heißt es: »Wie mit absolutem Gehör begabt, lässt Helga van Beuningen die sprachlichen Register musikalisch ineinandergreifen, die für die beklemmende Attraktion von Marieke Lucas Rijnevelds Roman Mein kleines Prachttier sorgen. Ein deutsch-niederländisches Virtuos:innenstück.«

        Was man sät

        Roman

        by Marieke Lucas Rijneveld, Helga van Beuningen

        Kurz vor Weihnachten bemerkt die zehnjährige Jas, dass der Vater ihr Kaninchen mästet. Sie ist sich sicher, dass es dem Weihnachtsessen zum Opfer fallen wird. Das darf nicht passieren. Also betet Jas zu Gott, er möge ihren älteren Bruder anstelle des Kaninchens nehmen. Am selben Tag bricht ihr Bruder beim Schlittschuhlaufen ins Eis ein und ertrinkt. Die Familie weiß: Das war eine Strafe Gottes, und alle Familienmitglieder glauben, selbst schuld an der Tragödie zu sein. Jas flieht mit ihrem Bruder Obbe und ihrer Schwester Hanna in das Niemandsland zwischen Kindheit und Erwachsensein, in eine Welt voll okkulter Spiele und eigener Gesetze, in der die Geschwister immer mehr den eigenen Sehnsüchten und Vorstellungswelten auf die Spur kommen. Was bedeuten Familie, Glaube, Zusammenhalt? Wie kann man anderen beistehen, wenn man mit den eigenen Dämonen zu kämpfen hat? Marieke Lucas Rijneveld hat einen gewagten, einen kräftigen und lebendigen Roman geschrieben, der unsere innersten Gewissheiten hinterfragt.

        The Legacy of John Polidori

        The Romantic Vampire and its Progeny

        by Sam George, Bill Hughes

        John Polidori's novella The Vampyre (1819) is perhaps 'the most influential horror story of all time' (Frayling). Polidori's story transformed the shambling, mindless monster of folklore into a sophisticated, seductive aristocrat that stalked London society rather than being confined to the hinterlands of Eastern Europe. Polidori's Lord Ruthven was thus the ancestor of the vampire as we know it. This collection explores the genesis of Polidori's vampire. It then tracks his bloodsucking progeny across the centuries and maps his disquieting legacy. Texts discussed range from the Romantic period, including the fascinating and little-known The Black Vampyre (1819), through the melodramatic vampire theatricals in the 1820s, to contemporary vampire film, paranormal romance, and science fiction. They emphasise the background of colonial revolution and racial oppression in the early nineteenth century and the cultural shifts of postmodernity.

        Other Everests

        One mountain, many worlds

        by Paul Gilchrist, Peter Hansen, Jonathan Westaway

        A hundred years after the tragic 1924 British Everest expedition, this collection explores the wider social and cultural history of the mountain. Mount Everest looms large in the popular imagination. Since the deaths of mountaineers George Mallory and Andrew Irvine in 1924, histories of the mountain have overwhelmingly focused on the mythologies of western male adventure and conquest. But there are many more stories waiting to be told. Other Everests brings together new voices and perspectives on the historical and cultural significance of Everest in the modern world. The book shines a light on the overlooked role of local people and high-altitude workers, while also revealing the significant contributions women have made to climbing the mountain and writing its history. It explores the depiction of Everest in a range of media and investigates how the forces of nationalism and commercialism have shaped many different 'Everests'. After years of exploitation, Indigenous people are now reclaiming Mount Everest in the twenty-first century. Other Everests re-examines the past and present of the world's highest peak, presenting an exciting vision of what Everest might become in the future.

        How Animals Hammer, Drill and Strike

        Tool Use in the Animal Kingdom

        by Peter-René Becker

        From insects to fish as well as birds and primates: the use of tools is amazingly widespread in the animal kingdom. It’s a misnomer to presume that humans are distinguished by tool use and conscious capacity. So where is culture initiated? The biologist Peter-René Becker has evaluated numerous studies and cites plenty of evidence for the use of the hammer and anvil, lances, bait or sponges. Animals also use “tools as social implements”. Ultimately, the depth of man’s conscience singles him out from other animals.
