Bach Doctor Press

Darin Dance started his own publishing and photography business in 2014: The Bach Doctor Press after researching and taking photographs for many book projects while working collaboratively with fellow Ngāi Tahu writers. He firmly believes that with the retrenchment of the main publishing houses back to Australia, America and Europe, our remarkable “Kiwi” voices and stories will be lost and unheard unless new publishing ventures are prepared to fill this void. This has become his mission to promote our unique kōrero and pakiwaitara (stories and legends).

AND THE WORLD WAS YOUNG (Vol. I)

by Carmen Korn

January 1st, 1950: in Cologne, Hamburg and San Remo, people ring in the new decade. The one before left deep scars in the cities and in people’s minds and hearts. Gerda and Heinrich Aldenhoven’s house in Cologne is bursting at the seams. Heinrich’s art gallery is not making enough money to feed all the hungry mouths. In contrast, Gerda’s friends Elisabeth and her husband Kurt in Hamburg don’t have money worries. As press officer of the savings bank, Kurt can provide a modest existence for his family. But they also yearn for a little more lightness in their lives. Their son-in-law Joachim still hasn’t returned from the war. And Margarethe Aldenhoven has ended up in San Remo. Her life at her Italian husband’s side seems carefree, but she is tortured by her dependency on her mother-in-law. As differently as they all spent New Year’s Eve – out and about in Cologne, quietly at home in Hamburg, classily in San Remo – the questions on New Year’s Day are the same: will the wounds finally heal? What will the future bring?

The Jews in western Europe, 1400–1600

by Translated and Edited by John Edwards

As European politics, society, economy and religion underwent epoch-making changes between 1400 and 1600, the treatment of Europe's Jews by the non-Jewish majority was, then as in later periods, a symptom of social problems and tensions in the Continent as a whole. Through a broad-ranging collection of documents, John Edwards sets out to present a vivid picture of the Jewish presence in European life during this vital and turbulent period. Subjects covered include the Jews' own economic presence and culture, social relations between Jews and Christians, the policies and actions of Christian authorities in Church and State. He also draws upon original source material to convey ordinary people's prejudices about Jews, including myths about Jewish 'devilishness', money-grabbing, and 'ritual murder' of Christian children. Full introductory and explanatory material makes accessible the historical context of the subject and highlights the insights offered by the documents as well as the pitfalls to be avoided in this area of historical enquiry. This volume aims to provide a coherent working collection of texts for lecturers, teachers and students who wish to understand the experience of Jewish Europeans in this period. ;

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.
