Sofia heiratet Wladimir, und der Zar wünscht der Tochter seines Generals Glück. Aber das junge Mädchen liebt ihren Mann nicht: Mariage blanc, einziges Mittel, um im Ausland studieren zu können. Denn ohne Ehemann keinen Paß, ohne Paß keine Reisemöglichkeit. Sofia Kowalewskaja ist jedoch nur eine aus einer ganzen Schar junger Frauen, die Rußland ab Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts verlassen, sich an Schweizer Universitäten oder in Paris einschreiben, sich politisch engagieren und von den alten gesellschaftlichen Strukturen emanzipieren. Ihr Ziel ist die radikale Veränderung der politischen und sozialen Verhältnisse Rußlands. "Der Wunsch, über die russischen Frauen zu schreiben entstand während meiner Arbeit an dem Roman über Sabina Spielrein", sagt Bärbel Reetz. Präzise recherchiert hat Bärbel Reetz auch die Lebensgeschichten der Frauen, die sie als "Lenins Schwestern" an die Seite des Mannes stellt, dessen Name wie kein anderer mit dem Umsturz in Rußland verbunden ist. Es sind Künstlerinnen, Wissenschaftlerinnen, Politikerinnen, Abenteurerinnen wie Marianne von Werefkin, Sofia Kowalewskaja, Alexandra Kollontai und Isabelle Eberhardt, Revolutionärinnen wie Vera Figner und Raissa Adler, Psychoanalytikerinnen wie Mira Gincburg. Lenins Schwestern erzählt von Frauen im Aufbruch, die sich für die großen utopischen Entwürfe ihrer Zeit – Sozialismus, Marxismus und Psychoanalyse – leidenschaftlich engagierten, von ihrem Gelingen und Scheitern in Zeiten dramatischer gesellschaftlicher Umbrüche.

Stimulating and thought-provoking, this important new text looks at the welfare problems and philosophical and ethical issues that are caused by changes made to an animal's telos, behaviour and physiology, both positive and negative, to make them more productive or adapted for human uses. These changes may involve selective breeding for production, appearance traits, or competitive advantage in sport, transgenic animals or the use of pharmaceuticals or hormones to enhance production or performance. Changes may impose duties to care for these animals further and more intensely, or they may make the animal more robust. The book considers a wide range of animals, including farm animals, companion animals and laboratory animals. It reviews the ethics and welfare issues of animals that have been adapted for sport, as companions, in work, as ornaments, food sources, guarding and a whole host of other human functions. This important new book sparks debate and is essential reading for all those involved in animal welfare and ethics, including veterinarians, animal scientists, animal welfare scientists and ethologists.

This edited volume provides new readings of the life and career of iconic actress Vivien Leigh (1913-67), written by experts from theatre and film studies and curators from the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The collection uses newly accessible family archives to explore the intensely complex relationship between Vivien Leigh's approach to the craft of acting for stage and screen, and how she shaped, developed and projected her public persona as one of the most talked about and photographed actresses of her era. With key contributors from the UK, France and the US, chapters range from analyses of her work on stage and screen to her collaborations with designers and photographers, an analysis of her fan base, her interior designs and the 'public ownership' of Leigh's celebrity status during her lifetime and beyond.
