        Amerikanische Essays

        by Miłosz Czesław, Sven Sellmer, Peter Oliver Loew

        Die Amerika-Essays, die der polnische Nobelpreisträger Czeslaw Milosz vor fast 40 Jahren veröffentlichte und die nun erstmals auf deutsch erscheinen, haben nichts an Frische eingebüßt. Zehn Jahre, nachdem sich der aus dem Osten stammende Autor ganz im Westen der westlichen Welt, bei San Francisco, niedergelassen hatte, schrieb er ein sehr persönliches Buch, eine Reise zu sich selbst: »Wenn man nirgendwohin zurückkehren kann, muß man das Gegebene akzeptieren. Doch wie soll man damit zurechtkommen? Wie soll man es sich aneignen? Und dabei geht es nicht so sehr um Amerika, sondern um die Zivilisation des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts in ihrer kalifornischen Spielart.« Milosz schreibt über die großartige, aber auch furchteinflößende Natur der amerikanischen Westküste, über die Rolle des Intellektuellen in der amerikanischen Gesellschaft, über Zensur, Henry Miller, Herbert Marcuse, die Religion und immer wieder über den Mythos Amerika. Ein großartiges Panorama seiner Zeit und ein persönliches Bekenntnis zugleich. Die New York Times schrieb: »Milosz klingt wie jemand, der Schritt um Schritt direkt aus der Geschichte kommt und verwundert, aber auch dankbar darüber ist, die unhistorische Luft Kaliforniens atmen zu können.«

        Dorf- und Schloßgeschichten

        by Marie Ebner-Eschenbach, Joseph Peter Strelka, Joseph Peter Strelka

        Die Dichterin Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach steht idealtypisch für den Anspruch, die geistige Tradition der altösterreichischen Dienstaristokratie im besten Sinne zu vertreten. Sie lebte, was sie schrieb und schreibend vertrat, von früher Kindheit an. Ihrem Werk liegt etwas Allgemeingültiges, Zeitloses und damit Zeitüberdauerndes inne, auch wenn es auf den ersten Blick keine Brücke zu geben scheint zwischen jener alten, engen, bescheidenen, schmal umzirkelten Welt, wie sie uns aus den Erzählungen der Ebner entgegentritt, und der Welt unserer Tage. Als große Künstlerin jedoch vermag sie es, durch ihre erzählerische Welt des Unaufdringlichen, Unpathetischen, vornehm Zurückgehaltenen, Zurückgenommenen und wahrhaft Vornehmen nach wie vor zu faszinieren und bleibende Werte zu vermitteln. Die vorliegende Auswahl versammelt unter dem Titel »Dorf- und Schloßgeschichten« sechs der bedeutendsten und zeitüberdauernden erzählerischen Werke der Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach: »Das Gemeindekind«, »Krambambuli«, »Der gute Mond«, »Die Resel«, »Oversberg«, »Er laßt die Hand küssen«.

        Citizenship, nation, empire

        The politics of history teaching in England, 1870–1930

        by Andrew Thompson, Peter Yeandle, John M. MacKenzie

        Citizenship, nation, empire investigates the extent to which popular imperialism influenced the teaching of history between 1870 and 1930. It is the first book-length study to trace the substantial impact of educational psychology on the teaching of history, probing its impact on textbooks, literacy primers and teacher-training manuals. Educationists identified 'enlightened patriotism' to be the core objective of historical education. This was neither tub-thumping jingoism, nor state-prescribed national-identity teaching, but rather a carefully crafted curriculum for all children which fused civic as well as imperial ambitions. The book will be of interest to those studying or researching aspects of English domestic imperial culture, especially those concerned with questions of childhood and schooling, citizenship, educational publishing and anglo-British relations. Given that vitriolic debates about the politics of history teaching have endured into the twenty-first century, Citizenship, nation, empire is a timely study of the formative influences that shaped the history curriculum in English schools

        Texte zu einem spannungsreichen Verhältnis

        by Andrzej Chwalba, Jan Conrad, Friedrich Griese, Jürgen Heyde, Nina Kozlowski, Peter Oliver Loew

        Polens Osten ist weit. Da sind die einstigen Ostgebiete – das historische Staatsgebiet der Adelsrepublik reichte bis Kiew und Smolensk. Da sind die östlichen Nachbarn – Russen, Ukrainer, Weißrussen, Litauer. Der Osten bereicherte das Land, barg aber auch Gefahren. Das vielschichtige Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Polen und dem Osten prägt das politische Denken und die Kultur des Landes. Einige Stichworte: Russifizierung und imperiale Machtpolitik, kommunistische Bedrohung, neue osteuropäische Nationalismen, Bürgerkriege, Flucht und Vertreibung, die Zugehörigkeit zum »Ostblock« und die Auflösung desselben, Polens Sehnsucht nach dem Westen und der Sehnsuchtshorizont der verlorenen Ostgebiete, die neuen Nachbarschaften nach der politischen Wende mit Rußland, Ukraine, Weißrußland und auch Litauen. Andrzej Chwalba zeichnet in seiner Anthologie die komplizierte Geschichte und Gegenwart nach und erhellt anhand ausgewählter Texte der letzten hundert Jahre, wie Polen sich den Osten denkt. Der Band enthält Texte von Pawe} Jasienica, Józef Pi}sudski, Aleksander Hertz, Paulina Watowa, Gustav Herling, Stanis}aw Vincenz, Adam Zagajewski und anderen. Die Reihe ›Denken und Wissen. Eine Polnische Bibliothek‹ präsentiert herausragende Texte polnischer Wissenschaftler und zentrale Themen des geistigen Lebens in Polen. Damit soll der Zugang zu Denktraditionen und Diskussionen erleichtert werden, die ein integraler Bestandteil der europäischen Wissenslandschaft sind. Die Reihe wird von Dieter Bingen am Deutschen Polen-Institut Darmstadt herausgegeben.

        British and Irish Butterflies

        An Island Perspective

        by Roger L H Dennis, Peter B Hardy

        Islands are special places; they can be havens for unique plants and animals and refuges for wildlife. This book investigates the biogeography of butterfly species over the British islands, particularly the factors that influence their presence on the islands and that have made each island's butterfly fauna distinctive. The book contains a full log of records of species on the islands and much supporting information. The first three chapters set the scene, illustrating the basics of island biogeography theory, their changing circumstances during the current Holocene interglacial, and studies of natural history of British butterflies that mark the islands as the most intensively studied region for wildlife in the world. The book advances by increasing resolution downscale from a European continental perspective, through patterns and changes on the British mainland, a comparison of the two dominant islands of Britain and Ireland, to a close inspection of the dynamics of species on the multitude of offshore islands. Detailed investigations include contrasts in species' richness on the islands and then of the incidences of each species. Case studies highlight the continual turnover of species on islands. Attention is then given to evolutionary changes since the time that glaciers enveloped Europe. A powerful message is conveyed for the maintenance of butterfly species on the smaller British islands now experiencing population losses at a rate unprecedented since the spread of the last ice sheets: the incontrovertible importance of maintaining populations of species on nearby mainland sources for islands as pools for future migrants. This book is enhanced with supporting material. To access the Online Supplementary Appendices below, please visit: http://www.cabi.org/openresources/95061.

        Conspiracy in the French Revolution

        by Peter R. Campbell, Thomas Kaiser, Marisa Linton

        Conspiratorial views of events abound even in our modern, rational world. Often such theories serve to explain the inexplicable. Sometimes they are developed for motives of political expediency: it is simpler to see political opponents as conspirators and terrorists, putting them into one convenient basket, than to seek to understand and disentangle the complex motivations of opponents. So it is not surprising to see that just when the French Revolution was creating the modern political world, a constant obsession with conspiracies lay at the heart of the revolutionary conception of politics. The book considers the nature and development of the conspiracy obsession from the end of the old regime to the Directory. Chapters focus on conspiracy and fears of conspiracy in the old regime; in the Constituent Assembly; by the king and Marie Antoinette; amongst the people of Paris; on attitudes towards the peasantry and conspiracy; on Jacobin politics of the Year II and the 'foreign plot'; on counter-revolutionary plots and imaginary plots; on Babeuf and the 'conspiracy of equals'; and finally on fear of conspiracy as an intellectual impasse in the revolutionary mentality. Inspired by recent debates, this book is a comprehensive survey of the nature of conspiracy in the French Revolution, with each chapter written by a leading historian on the question. Each chapter is an original contribution to the topic, written however to include the wider issues for the area concerned. There is an emphasis throughout on clarity and accessibility, making the volume suitable for a wide readership as well as undergraduates and advanced researchers ;

        Beginning Shakespeare

        by Lisa Hopkins, Peter Barry, John McLeod

        'Beginning Shakespeare' introduces students to the study of Shakespeare, and grounds their understanding of his work in theoretical discourses. After an introductory survey of the dominant approaches of the past, seven chapters examine the major current critical approaches to Shakespeare; psychoanalysis, New Historicism, Cultural Materialism, gender studies, queer theory, postcolonial criticism and performance criticism. A further chapter looks at the growing roles of biography, attribution studies and textual studies. Each chapter analyses the strengths and weaknesses of a particular perspective, allowing students to gain a clear critical purchase on the respective approaches, and to make informed choices between them. Each chapter ends with a list of suggested further reading and interactive exercises based on the key issues raised. An invaluable introduction, essential for anyone studying Shakespeare, 'Beginning Shakespeare' offers students a map of the current critical practices, and a sense of the possibilities for developing their own approaches. ;
