        Making home

        Orphanhood, kinship and cultural memory in contemporary American novels

        by Maria Holmgren Troy, Elizabeth Kella, Helena Wahlström

        Making home explores the figure of the orphan child in a broad selection of contemporary US novels by popular and critically acclaimed authors Barbara Kingsolver, Linda Hogan, Leslie Marmon Silko, Marilynne Robinson, Michael Cunningham, Jonathan Safran Foer, John Irving, Kaye Gibbons, Octavia Butler, Jewelle Gomez and Toni Morrison. The orphan child is a continuous presence in US literature, not only in children's books and nineteenth-century texts, but also in a variety of genres of contemporary fiction for adults. Making home examines the meanings of this figure in the contexts of American literary history, social history and ideologies of family, race and nation. It argues that contemporary orphan characters function as links to literary history and national mythologies, even as they may also serve to critique the limits of literary history, as well as the limits of familial and national belonging.

        Find me in the Storm

        by Kira Mohn

        Not a single soul as far as the eye can see. Just sea, cliffs and the beach. And a lighthouse. It’s a wondrously beautiful place – not that Airin has a chance to enjoy it. The lighthouse has been converted into a cosy living space available for rent, and 24-year-old Airin has to look after the property while at the same time running her own bed and breakfast in Castledunn. It’s a lot of work for one person, but normally everything runs smoothly. Until Joshua, the nephew of the lighthouse owner, moves in. Arrogant and priggish, he complains ceaselessly about everything. Airin feels like strangling him. Or kissing him. Who cares, just as long as he stops talking!   16+ years The third volume of a unique romance trilogy about three young women, a lighthouse and love. All titles can be read separately! Rousing characters and a fine dry humor For all fans of Mona Kasten, Laura Kneidl and Colleen Hoover! More than 60.000 copies of this series were sold!

        Briefwechsel mit Rolf von Ungern-Sternberg und weitere Dokumente zur Übertragung der »Stances« von Jean Moréas

        by Rainer Maria Rilke, Konrad Kratzsch, Vera Hauschild

        "Rilkes Briefe an Rolf Freiherrn von Ungern-Sternberg sind, wie die Briefe an einen jungen Dichter oder die Briefe an eine junge Frau, Reaktionen auf einen Ruf nach Hilfe: Am 21. Januar 1921 hatte sich der baltische Autor und Diplomat an Rilke mit der Bitte gewandt, seine Übertragungen von Jean Moréas' Stances zu begutachten und ihnen mit einer Verlagsempfehlung zur Veröffentlichung zu verhelfen. Der Briefwechsel, der sich daraufhin zwischen beiden Männern entspann, galt der detaillierten Arbeit an einzelnen Versen Moréas', doch ging er weit darüber hinaus.Ungern-Sternbergs Kontaktaufnahme zu Rilke bedeutete, biographisch gesehen, die willkommene Möglichkeit, von der Schweiz aus an die durch den Ersten Weltkrieg jäh abgebrochene Pariser Zeit anzuschließen, in der Rilke den Diplomaten kennengelernt hatte, und von den Schwierigkeiten zu sprechen, die ihm das Heimischwerden im Schweizer Exil damals noch bereitete. Die Ausgabe basiert auf dem 1980 im Insel Verlag Leipzig erschienenen Briefwechsel; sie wurde unter anderem um einige bislang unveröffentlichte Briefe sowie um die Rilkeschen Übertragungen einiger von Moréas' Stances erweitert."

        Irish Home Rule

        by Alan O'Day, Mark Greengrass

        Irish Home Rule considers the pre-eminent issue in British politics during the late nineteenth and early twentieth-centuries. It is the first account to explain the various self-government plans, to place these in context and examine the motives for putting the schemes forward. The book distinguishes between moral and material home rulers, making the point that the first appealed especially to outsiders, some Protestants and the intelligentsia, who saw in self-government a means to reconcile Ireland's antagonistic traditions. In contrast, material home rulers viewed a Dublin Parliament as a forum of Catholic interests. This account appraises the home rule movement from a fresh angle, distinguishing it from the usual division drawn between physical force and constitutional nationalists It maintains that an ideological continuity runs from Young Ireland, the Fenians, the early home rulers including Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell, to the Gaelic Revivalists to the Men of 1916. These nationalists are distinguishable from material home rulers not on the basis of methods or strategy but by a fundamental ideological cleavage. ;
