        A Ragged Schooling

        Growing up in the classic slum

        by Robert Roberts

        With great humour and vitality, Robert Roberts evokes his Edwardian childhood in the vivid portrait of a vanished community. Breathing the smoke from the factory chimneys, the children of Salford struggled daily to survive the grinding poverty that surrounded them. Sharing lively games along the railways lines and canal banks, their lives were rich in experience and comradeship. ;

        Robert Walser für Müßiggänger

        by Robert Walser, Susanne Schaber

        »Menschen, die Phantasie haben und Gebrauch davon machen, gelten leicht als Spitzbuben.« Robert Walsers Bonmots sind immer hintergründig wie hinreißend. Der Schweizer Dichter ist einmalig als Erscheinung, kaum ein anderer Schriftsteller hat sich zu so vielen Lebensbereichen ähnlich pointiert geäußert wie er. Diese Sammlung von Texten und Aphorismen, ausgewählt von Susanne Schaber, stellt diesen außerordentlichen Autor als Flaneur und genauen Borbachter vor, als Miniaturist par excellence.

        Robert Guédiguian

        by Series edited by Diana Holmes, Robert Ingram, Joseph Mai

        Intervening at the crossroads of philosophy, politics, and cinema, this book argues that the career of Robert Guédiguian, director of Marius et Jeannette (1997) and other popular auteurist films, can be read as an original and coherent project: to make a committed, historically-conscious cinema with friends, in a local space, and over a long period of time. Illustrated with comprehensive readings of all of Guédiguian's films.

        Wozu Literatur?

        Reden und Essays

        by Robert Minder, Robert Minder

        In einer Kritik über Robert Minders Buch Dichter in der Gesellschaft hieß es: »Madame de Staël hat Deutschland für die Franzosen entdeckt; Robert Minder hingegen entdeckt Deutschland für uns Deutsche.« Die Essays dieses Bandes, drei Reden, ein Text über Döblin und eine weitgespannte Analyse von Lesebüchern, zeigen Verflechtungen und Verschiedenheiten von Literatur. In den Lesebüchern selbst dürftiger Zeiten bestätigt sich Robert Minder (geboren am 23. 8. 1902 im Elsaß, gestorben am 10. 9. 1980 in Cannes) die Durchhaltekraft literarischer Texte. Literatur hat Zukunft; in ihren besten Beispielen repräsentiert sie das Weltgewissen. Freilich, »Literatur wählt sich auch ihre Leute aus«.

        International Trade and Policies for Genetically Modified Products

        by Robert E Evenson, Robert E Evenson, Vittorio Santaniello, Vittorio Santaniello

        There are a number of controversial issues that surround agricultural biotechnology and genetically modified products. International trade and policies are at the forefront of these controversies. This book addresses these issues and has been developed from a meeting of the International Consortium on Agricultural Biotechnology Research, held in Revello, Italy, in July 2004. It covers five themes: analytical studies; empirical trade studies; spillover dimensions; intellectual property rights; and applied general equilibrium trade models. ; International Trade and Policies for Genetically Modified Products has been developed from the International Consortium on Agricultural Biotechnology Research.
