March 2006Allen Gewalten zum Trutz sich erhalten
Gedichte und Bilder
by Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Hans-Joachim Simm
In Liedern auf die Liebe und die Freundschaft, in Hymnen auf das Unendliche und in Versen voller Einsicht und Weisheit hat Goethe das Leben bedichtet und besungen. Jede Gelegenheit konnte Anlaß sein für ein Gedicht, in freien Rhythmen oder in strengen Strophen, in Sonetten oder Epigrammen – Dichtung als Spiegel des Lebens und als Fluchtraum zugleich. Goethes Haltung zur Welt zeigen die in diesem Band versammelten Gedichte, ebenso wie seine Zeichnungen und Aquarelle. Im entschiedenen Eintreten für die Wahrheit und in ihrem Appell zur Selbstbestimmung sind sie heute noch genauso aktuell wie 1777, als die Verse für das Singspiel Lila entstanden: »Allen Gewalten / Zum Trutz sich erhalten, / Nimmer sich beugen, / Kräftig sich zeigen, / Rufet die Arme / Der Götter herbei!«

Humanities & Social Sciences8 BILLION REASONS POPULATION MATTERS
The Defining Issue of the 21st Century
by Valorie M. Allen
The world is about to hit a population level of EIGHT BILLION people on one small planet. Through Allen’s analysis of the situation, the realization sets in that the fights by environmental and world aid groups are all for naught as every gain is soon overwhelmed by the pressures of more growth. Our planet's greatest threat is of too many people depleting the Earth's resources and contributing to climate change. Allen offers a thorough analysis of our environmental, social, political, and economic crises; then offers a treasure trove of solutions and success stories that we can all take to heart.

Briefe 1952-2011
by Christa Wolf, Sabine Wolf
»Post, Post, Post«. Dieser Stoßseufzer, notiert im Kalender unter dem Datum vom Sonntag, dem 4. März 1990, kommt nicht von ungefähr: Christa Wolf war eine ungeheuer produktive Korrespondentin. Ihre Briefe an Verwandte und Freunde, Kollegen, Lektoren, Politiker, Journalisten geben faszinierende Einblicke in ihre Gedankenwelt, ihre Schreibwerkstatt, ihr gesellschaftliches Engagement. Ob sie an Günter Grass oder Max Frisch schreibt, von Joachim Gauck Einsicht in ihre Stasi-Akte fordert oder sich mit Freundinnen wie Sarah Kirsch und Maxie Wander austauscht, wir sind Zeuge von Freundschaften und Zerwürfnissen, Auseinandersetzungen und von Bestätigung, von der Selbstfindung einer der wichtigsten Autorinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Nicht zuletzt beeindruckt ihr Umgang mit der Flut von Leserbriefen, die sie mit zunehmendem schriftstellerischen Erfolg erreicht und auf die sie geduldig und kundig – und manchmal auch mit der gebotenen Direktheit – eingeht.

Humanities & Social SciencesOctober 2021Mary and Philip
The marriage of Tudor England and Habsburg Spain
by Alexander Samson
Mary I, eldest daughter of Henry VIII, was Queen of England from 1553 until her death in 1558. For much of this time she ruled alongside her husband, King Philip II of Spain, forming a co-monarchy that put England at the heart of early modern Europe. In this book, Alexander Samson presents a bold reassessment of Mary and Philip's reign, rescuing them from the neglect they have suffered at the hands of generations of historians. The co-monarchy of Mary I and Philip II put England at the heart of early modern Europe. This positive reassessment of their joint reign counters a series of parochial, misogynist and anti-Catholic assumptions, correcting the many myths that have grown up around the marriage and explaining the reasons for its persistent marginalisation in the historiography of sixteenth-century England. Using new archival discoveries and original sources, the book argues for Mary as a great Catholic queen, while fleshing out Philip's important contributions as king of England.

Amazing Grace
The Story of Grace O'Malley the Notorious Pirate Woman
by Hugo N. Gerstl
A WOMAN THAT HATH IMPUDENTLY PASSED THE PART OF WOMANHOOD AND BEEN A GREAT SPOILER AND CHIEF COMMANDER AND DIRECTOR OF THIEVES AND MURDERERS AT SEA … SHE HATH BEEN THE MOTHER OF ALL REBELLIONS FOR FORTY YEARS … , the “Pirate Queen of Connaught,” was thus vilified by those English authorities who tried to bring stubborn, recalcitrant Ireland to its knees in the Sixteenth Century. Twice married, twice widowed, a passionate lover, gambler, pirate, sea captain, politician, mother of heroes, and, above all, a symbol of the indomitable human spirit and Irish independence. She was a force to be reckoned with by anyone – man, woman, even the sovereign of England, who tried to cross her path. AMAZING GRACE swaggered boldly across the world stage for more than seventy years. These were turbulent times of Henry VIII and “Bloody Mary” Tudor, and Queen Elizabeth – the age of discovery when the remnants of the Middle Ages were dying – except in the provinces of Ireland – and the Renaissance was in full flower – the days of the “discovery” of America by Spaniards, the exploration of Africa and India by Portugal, the launching of the Invincible Armada, and the great schism of two contending forces of western Christianity. Armed with courage and daring to match that of any man, AMAZING GRACE lived a life “larger than legend.” More sinner than saint, she is remembered throughout western Ireland more than four hundred years after her death, celebrated in story and song. In a time when women were very much “second class citizens,” GRACE O’MALLEY did not need a women’s rights organization – she was her own force, and if you tried to cross her, you’d best beware. Sir Henry Sidney, the English Lord Deputy of Ireland, said it best: “There came to me a most feminine sea captain called Grace O’Malley, with three galleys and 200 fighting men. She brought a husband with her, and she was, by sea and by land, well more than Mrs. Mate with him. This was a notorious woman in all the coasts of Ireland.” , nationally famous American trial lawyer, world traveler, whose books have been translated into Portuguese, Czech, Turkish, Hebrew, and German, and author of international bestsellers , , , and , lives in Carmel, California with his wife Lorraine, a writer and teacher. Together they have raised five grown children. Published by Pangæa Publishing Group, 402 Pages, 2019. 23 cm x 15 cm
