October 2006Mein Kochbuch
Einfaches zu besonderen Anlässen
by Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard, Susanne Baumgarten
„Alle essen, viele kochen, manche besonders gut. Zu denen gehöre ich nicht. Aber ich koche leidenschaftlich gern und mag auch Gäste und Feste. Meistens habe ich schrecklich wenig Zeit. Deshalb koche ich in der Regel relativ einfache Gerichte und oft dasselbe.“ Bei Einladungen gilt für Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard vor allem eines: Die Gäste und nicht die Speisenfolge stehen im Mittelpunkt. Ein gutes Essen soll Spaß machen. Und ein guter Gastgeber zeichnet sich auch dadurch aus, daß er sich ausgeruht seinen Gästen widmet und nicht panisch in der Küche letzte Vorbereitungen trifft. Mit pragmatischen Ratschlägen und anschaulichen Anleitungen erleichtert Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard das Kochen von über 200 köstlichen Gerichten, viele davon aus der Küche ihrer traditionsreichen Familie, aber auch bewährte Rezepte von Freunden und einfallsreiche Abwandlungen: von Käsewindbeuteln und Tomatensuppe über Spinatauflauf, Tafelspitz und Rösti bis zu Zimtsternenund Karamelläpfeln. Tips zum Zeitmanagement in der Küche, zur Vorbereitung und Zusammenstellung des Menüs sowie viele persönliche Beobachtungen aus langjähriger Kocherfahrung vermitteln auch weniger Geübten, daß Kochen keine Zauberei ist. Die Kochphilosophie von Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard ist einfach: Mit wenigen, aber guten Zutaten und vernünftiger Zeiteinteilung kann jeder köstliche Gerichte zubereiten und als Gastgeber den Überblick behalten.

The ArtsJanuary 2019From Perversion to Purity
The stardom of Catherine Deneuve
by Lisa Downing, Sue Harris
Catherine Deneuve is indisputably one of the world's most celebrated actresses, both in her native France and throughout the world. Her career has spanned five decades during which she has worked with the most significant of French auteurs, as well as forging partnerships with international directors such as Bunuel and Polanski. The Deneuve star persona has attained such iconic status that it can now symbolise the very essence of French womanhood and civic identity. In this wide-ranging and authoritative collection of essays by a selection of international film academics and writers, the Deneuve persona is scrutinised and illuminated. Beyond the glamorous iconographic status of Yves Saint Laurent's muse, and the epitome of sexual inviolability, Deneuve's status as actress is foregrounded. The book will be essential reading for students and lecturers in star studies.

Literature & Literary StudiesMay 2023Creating character
Theories of nature and nurture in Victorian sensation fiction
by Helena Ifill
This book explores the ways in which the two leading sensation authors of the 1860s, Mary Elizabeth Braddon and Wilkie Collins, engaged with nineteenth-century ideas about personality formation and the extent to which it can be influenced either by the subject or by others. Innovative readings of seven sensation novels explore how they employ and challenge Victorian theories of heredity, degeneration, inherent constitution, education, upbringing and social circumstance. Far from presenting a reductive depiction of 'nature' versus 'nurture', Braddon and Collins show the creation of character to be a complex interplay of internal and external factors. Drawing on material ranging from medical textbooks, to sociological treatises, to popular periodicals, Creating character shows how sensation authors situated themselves at the intersections of established and developing, conservative and radical, learned and sensationalist thought about how identity could be made and modified.
