        Die Mauergesellschaft

        Kalter Krieg, Menschenrechte und die deutsch-deutsche Migration 1961-1989

        by Frank Wolff

        Die Mauer sicherte nicht bloß eine Grenze, sie definierte Deutschland im Kalten Krieg. Von der aktiven Befürwortung über die stille Akzeptanz bis hin zum Widerstand einte die geteilte deutsche Gesellschaft, dass sie sich ihrer Existenz nicht entziehen konnte. In seiner brillanten und faktengesättigten Studie zeichnet der Historiker Frank Wolff diese Verhältnisse im Detail nach und zeigt unter anderem, dass die in der Aufarbeitung der DDR-Vergangenheit eher stiefmütterlich behandelte Forderung nach Reisefreiheit, der sich darum in der Bevölkerung entwickelnde Menschenrechtsdiskurs sowie die Ausreisebewegung selbst entscheidend für den Fall der Mauer waren.

        »Die Juden«

        Ein Dokument aus dem Exil 1942/43

        by Theodor Wolff, Bernd Sösemann

        Dieses bisher unveröffentlichte Manuskript aus dem Nachlass Theodor Wolffs, geschrieben in Nizza zwischen 1942 und 1943, ist der erste Band eines geplanten dreiteiligen Zyklus, zu dem auch die Bände »Die Franzosen« und »Die Deutschen« gehören sollten. Den eigentlichen jüdischen Fragen gegenüber verhielt Wolff stets sehr zurückhaltend; einen besonderen Wert besitzen darum diese Aufzeichnungen, in denen sich Betrachtungen und Gedanken sowie »aktuelle« Berichte und autobiographische Details zu den historischen, politisch-ideologischen, gesellschaftlichen, kulturellen, religiösen und rechtlichen Dimensionen des »jüdischen Problems« im Laufe der Jahrhunderte finden. Theodor Wolffs persönliche Situation im französischen Exil sowie die antisemitische Stimmung in Frankreich vor und im Zweiten Weltkrieg, die Verfolgungen in Marseille, die Opposition in Frankreich, das deutsche Besatzungsregime stehen dabei im Vordergrund dieses gut formulierten, dicht gewebten, mitunter feuilletonistisch geschriebenen Essays, in dem sich ein unabhängiger Geist, ein literarisch gebildeter, wohlinformierter politischer Kopf zeigt.

        Culture in Manchester

        Institutions and urban change since 1850

        by Janet Wolff

        This book brings together studies of cultural institutions in Manchester from 1850 to the present day, giving an unprecedented account of the city's cultural evolution. These bring to light the remarkable range of Manchester's contribution to modern cultural life, including the role of art education, popular theatre, religion, pleasure gardens, clubs and societies. The chapters show the resilience and creativity of Manchester's cultural institutions since 1850, challenging any simple narrative of urban decline following the erosion of Lancashire's industrial base, at the same time illustrating the range of activities across the social classes. This book will appeal to everyone interested in the cultural life of the city of Manchester, including cultural historians, sociologists and urban geographers, as well as general readers with interests in the city. It is written by leading international authorities, including Viv Gardner, Stephen Milner, Mike Savage, Bill Williams and Janet Wolff. ;

        Briefe

        by Christa Wolf, Charlotte Wolff

        Im Frühjahr 1983 hat Christa Wolf gerade die aufsehenerregenden Frankfurter Poetikvorlesungen und ihre große Erzählung Kassandra veröffentlicht. Zur gleichen Zeit arbeitet die Psychologin und Ärztin Charlotte Wolff – eine deutsche Jüdin, die 1933 zuerst nach Paris und dann nach London emigrierte – an einer umfangreichen Monographie zu Magnus Hirschfeld, dem Pionier der Erforschung menschlicher Sexualität. Zwei Frauen, die sich nie persönlich begegnen werden. Aber in den drei Jahren ihres Austauschs entsteht ein so engagierter wie anrührender Briefwechsel über Arbeitsvorhaben, über den Alltag, über die Stellung der Künstlerin in einer männlich bestimmten Gesellschaft – und es ergibt sich das Bild einer stetig wachsenden Freundschaft.
