Sam Hanna's visual legacy
by Heather Nicholson
Sam Hanna (1903-96), a pioneering filmmaker from Burnley, Lancashire, was dubbed the 'Lowry of filmmaking' by BBC broadcaster Brian Redhead in the 1980s. The well-meant label stuck, even though it misses the variety of Hanna's remarkable output. Hanna's intimate glimpses into the lives of strangers enable us to imagine the possible stories that lie behind the images. Away from mid-century exponents of documentary filmmaking and photography, Hanna shows us humanity and a microcosm of a world in change, where his subjects are caught up in issues far beyond their grasp that we, as onlookers years later, encounter and see afresh. Written and curated by historian Heather Norris Nicholson, Round our way combines stills, essays and archive photography to document Hanna's unique visual record on film, particularly in northern England, but also further afield, during decades of profound change.

October 2018Von Männern und ihren Katzen
Die größten Katzenliebhaber der Geschichte
by Sam Kalda, Kirsten Riesselmann
Der beste Freund des Mannes ist der Hund. Von wegen! In seinem stilsicher wie liebevoll illustrierten Buch widmet sich Sam Kalda den großen »Katzenmännern« der Geschichte und beweist, dass den bedeutendsten Denkern, Erfindern, Künstlern und Schriftstellern unserer Zeit keineswegs imposante Vierbeiner beiseite standen, sondern filigrane Katzengeschöpfe. Hemingway, der für seinen Jagdinstinkt – in tierischen wie in libidinösen Gefilden – und seinen exzessiven Alkoholkonsum berüchtigt war, legte eine erstaunliche Zuneigung zu Katzen an den Tag, zärtlich nannte er sie seine »Schnurr-Fabriken«. Nikola Tesla wurde angeblich zum Nachdenken über Elektrizität inspiriert, als er seine Katze Macak streichelte und einen Schlag abbekam. Und als fanatischster Katzenliebhaber wird vermutlich Karl Lagerfeld in die Geschichte eingehen, dessen weißes Siamkätzchen Choupette nicht nur für Chanel modelt, sondern auch einen Twitter-Account, zwei Nannys und eigenes Designergeschirr besitzt. Von Männern und ihren Katzen ist eine längst überfällige und charmante Hommage an die größten Katzenliebhaber aller Zeiten.

The ArtsSeptember 2015Film modernism
by Sam Rohdie
This book is at once a detailed study of a range of individual filmmakers and a study of the modernism in which they are situated. It consists of fifty categories arranged in alphabetical order, among which are allegory, bricolage, classicism, contradiction, desire, destructuring and writing. Each category, though autonomous, interacts, intersects and juxtaposes with the others, entering into a dialogue with them and in so doing creates connections, illuminations, associations and rhymes which may not have arisen in a more conventional framework. The author refers to particular films and directors that raise questions related to modernism, and, inevitably, thereby to classicism. Jean-Luc Godard's work is at the centre of the book, though it spreads out, evokes and echoes other filmmakers and their work, including the films of Michelangelo Antonioni, Bernardo Bertolucci, John Ford, Howard Hawks, Alfred Hitchcock, João César Monteiro, Pier Paolo Pasolini and Orson Welles. This innovative and eloquently written text book will be an essential resource for all film students. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 2009Romania and the European Union
How the weak vanquished the strong
by Tom Gallagher
According to Tom Gallagher, Romania's predatory rulers, the heirs of the sinister communist dictator Ceausescu, have inflicted a humiliating defeat on the European Union. He argues convincingly that Brussels was tricked into offering full membership to this Balkan country in return for substantial reforms which its rulers now refuse to carry out. This book unmasks the failure of the EU to match its visionary promises of transforming Romania with the shabby reality. Benefiting from access to internal reports and leading figures involved in a decade of negotiations, it shows how Eurocrats were outwitted by unscrupulous local politicians who turned the EU's multi-level decision-making processes into a laughing-stock. The EU's famous 'soft power' turned out to be a mirage, as it was unable to summon up the willpower to insist that this key Balkan state embraced its standards of behaviour in the political and economic realms. The book unravels policy failures in the areas of justice, administrative and agricultural reform and shows how Romania moved backwards politically during the years of negotiations. ;

Thriller / suspenseDecember 2020CO2 - World Without Tomorrow
by Roth, Tom
CO2. A WORLD WITH NO TOMORROW is a fast-paced science thriller. For this story, Tom Roth takes movements such as Fridays for Future and the increasingly radical protests for climate change as his inspiration and point of departure. It seems that increasing numbers of people see themselves justified in resorting to radical measures in their efforts to save the planet and the future of humanity (children). And for the first time in history, the movement is emanating primarily from children and young people – whose future is at stake. Twelve children from twelve nations are kidnapped. They’ve been participating in a climate camp in Australia. From now on, one child will die every week unless the international community meets certain demands of the kidnappers for climate protection. As mankind waits with bated breath in anticipation of the first ultimatum expiring, the governments of the countries concerned are fighting over solutions. It soon becomes clear that this race is about much more than the lives of individuals, and that time knows no mercy. A topical issue of our times, highly emotional For readers of Marc Elsberg and Andreas Eschbach English outline and sample translation available

Ein praktischer Leitfaden für das Leben auf dem Lande
by Tom Hodgkinson, Anita Krätzer
»Glauben Sie niemandem, der sagt, es sei einfach, Gemüse anzubauen. Das ist eine dreiste Lüge.« Tom Hodgkinson erzählt vom Leben auf dem Land: Er hält Hühner, Schweine und Kaninchen, und seine Frau Victoria versucht sich als Imkerin, backt Brot und stampft Butter. Sie brauen mieses Bier und machen köstlichen Holunderlikör. Tom Hodgkinson ist kein „Zurück-zur-Natur“-Guru. Er gibt zu, dass das einfache Leben manchmal sehr kompliziert ist. Aber es verheißt trotzdem all das, wovon die meisten Menschen träumen: weniger Routine, weniger Konsum, weniger Müll, mehr Sinn, mehr Spaß, mehr Lebenslust. »Schöne alte Welt« ist ein Buch über die Kunst der praktischen Lebensführung – für alle, die Haus und Garten haben oder davon träumen.

December 2013Anleitung zum Müßiggang
by Tom Hodgkinson
Ein Lob auf die Faulheit, die Muße und die Individualität und ein praktischer Ratgeber darüber, den Müßiggang in den Alltag zu lassen. In seinem unterhaltsamen Bestseller spricht sich der britische Kultautor Tom Hodgkinson für mehr Genuss, Gelassenheit und Müßiggang im Leben aus. Er gibt zu, dass es gar nicht so einfach ist, sich Oasen des bewussten Nichtstuns zu schaffen und sich vom Moment verführen zu lassen. Aber man muss sich nicht schuldig fühlen, wenn man sich mittags ein Bad gönnt, anstatt die Steuererklärung zu machen. Alles zu seiner Zeit. Mit der für ihn typischen Mischung aus Humor, enzyklopädischem Wissen und Zitaten verführt Hodgkinson den Leser, die Zwänge des Lebens nicht mehr allzu ernst zu nehmen und die Schönheiten des Lebens mehr zu genießen.
