Photography & photographs2019I feel guilty when I throw away food. Grandma used to tell me about Holodomor (Famine of 1933)
by Andrii Dostliev, Lia Dostlieva, introduction by Serhiy Zhadan
Post-photographic research, which explores traces of a traumatic historical event in everyday practices and in contemporary landscape and tests the limits of photography as a medium in trauma representation. The starting point of this project was the personal sense of guilt which accompanies the acts of throwing food away. This feeling is common in contemporary Ukrainian culture and originates in our postmemory - it was imprinted into our generation’s behavioral patterns by the stories of our grandparents - survivors of the man-made famine of 1932-33 in Soviet Ukraine called the Holodomor, which killed millions. The ink prints document the thrown-away food while fragments of found black-and-white photographs of unrecognisable landscapes demonstrate the lack of the famine’s traces in the landscape – unlike many collective traumas which have exact geographic locations and present in the landscape in the form of ‘places of memory’.

August 2006Die Geliebte des Diktators
Eine Geschichte aus Paraguay. Roman
by Lily Tuck, Katharina Förs, Thomas Wollermann
"Eliza Alicia Lynch hatte Irland im Alter von zehn Jahren verlassen; mit fünfzehn heiratete sie einen französischen Offizier; mit neunzehn, geschieden und mit einem gutaussehenden, aber mittellosen russischen Grafen liiert, mußte sie noch einmal neu loslegen." Paris, im Jahr 1854. Der Graf zieht in den Krimkrieg, und Ella lernt einen draufgängerischen jungen Südamerikaner kennen. Sie reist mit ihm in sein Land. Francisco, der seinen Vater, den steinreichen Diktator Paraguays, beerbt, macht Ella zu seiner offiziellen Mätresse. Sie wird die Mutter seiner Kinder. In Asunción beginnt ein Leben in Saus und Braus - gefährdet durch die Gewalten der subtropischen Natur, bedroht durch Intrigen und durch die Launen des kindlich-barbarischen Autokraten. Paraguay, 1864: Ruhmsüchtig bricht Franco einen Krieg mit den mächtigen Nachbarn Brasilien und Argentinien vom Zaun, den er, auf einem schier endlosen Rückzug ins Landesinnere - Ella und Kinder im Troß -, fast bis zur Auslöschung der Bevölkerung durchhält. Er stirbt im Dschungel. War Ella die Kriegstreiberin? Mit einigen Schätzen entkommt sie nach Paris. Die Kinder schickt sie aufs Internat. Sie selber, die nirgendwo mehr vorgelassen wird, dämmert verarmt dahin.

November 2021The Metropolitan Age
The decisive force in the Anthropocene
by German Environmental Foundation (Ed.)
Three quarters of the world’s population live in cities. One in eight people lives in a metropolitan area. Megacities swallow up land, energy and resources – and at the same time are particularly hard hit by the current climate crisis that they fuel. However, in the metropolises of the overcrowded world plenty of committed people have heard the warning signals and establish networks to use the potential of cities to reorganize the participative and social-ecological activity that is urgently needed. The contributions to this Yearbook for Ecology focus on the present and future of cities from wide-ranging viewpoints and highlight perspectives for their creative transformation towards liveable sustainability.

September 2012Das Glück mit dir
by Lily Tuck, Thomas Wollermann, Katharina Förs
Nina bereitet das Abendessen vor, als ihr Mann Philip nach Hause kommt und sich für einen Moment hinlegt – nur wenig später findet sie ihn tot. Für Nina beginnt eine Nacht des Abschiednehmens, eine letzte Nacht, in der sie allein sein will mit ihrem Mann. Sie waren ein gegensätzliches Paar, er Mathematiker, sie Künstlerin. Doch gerade das machte ihr gemeinsames Leben so reich. Schlaglichtartig lässt Nina ihr Leben mit Philip an sich vorüberziehen, sie erinnert sich an überwältigende Glücksmomente, intime Augenblicke, an ihre erste Begegnung, das erste Gespräch, den Frühling in Paris, die Ferien am Meer – bis die Nacht in einen neuen Morgen übergeht, in einen klaren Tag …

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2023An archaeology of innovation
Approaching social and technological change in human society
by Catherine J. Frieman
An archaeology of innovation is the first monograph-length investigation of innovation and the innovation process from an archaeological perspective. It interrogates the idea of innovation that permeates our popular media and our political and scientific discourse, setting this against the long-term perspective that only archaeology can offer. Case studies span the entire breadth of human history, from our earliest hominin ancestors to the contemporary world. The book argues that the present narrow focus on pushing the adoption of technical innovations ignores the complex interplay of social, technological and environmental systems that underlies truly innovative societies; the inherent connections between new technologies, technologists and social structure that give them meaning and make them valuable; and the significance and value of conservative social practices that lead to the frequent rejection of innovations.

Science & MathematicsJune 2019Community-based Control of Invasive Species
by Paul Martin, Theodore R. Alter, Donald W. Hine, Tanya M. Howard
Invasive species are among the greatest challenges to environmental sustainability and agricultural productivity in the world. One of the most promising approaches to managing invasive species is voluntary citizen stewardship. However, in order for control measures to be effective, private citizens often need to make sustained and sometimes burdensome commitments. Community-Based Control of Invasive Species is based on five years of research by leading scholars in natural resource and human behavioural sciences, which involved government and citizen groups in Australia and the United States. It examines questions including, 'how can citizens be engaged in voluntarily managing invasive species?', 'what communication strategies will ensure good motivation and coordination?' and 'how can governing bodies support citizens in their efforts?'. With chapters on institutional frameworks, changing governance, systems thinking, organisational learning, engagement, communication and behavioural change, this book will be a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners involved in natural resources management.

Literature & Literary StudiesMay 1999Introduction to English Renaissance comedy
by Alexander Leggatt
Introduction to English Renaissance comedy provides a comprehensive introduction to Elizabethan, Jacobean and Caroline comedy, covering both public and private theatres, emphasising the eclectic, experimental nature of this comedy: its departures from the mainstream New Comedy tradition, its searching, witty analysis of social and personal relations in court, city and country. This book makes a close analysis of some of the richest comedies of the period, making unexpected connections between them: Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Tempest, Lyly's Endymion, Greene's Friar Bacon and Friar Bungay, Marston's The Malcontent, Middleton's Michaelmas Term, Jonson's Bartholomew Fair, Shirley's The Lady of Pleasure and Brome's A Jovial Crew. Through these plays the reader is given a comprehensive picture of English comedy in one of its most creative periods. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesOctober 2007Introduction to the history
by Natalia Yakovenko
The new book by the well-known Ukrainian historian, chief of the Department of history of National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy, professor Natalia Yakovenko, despite being a university textbook and a propaedeutic course on a professional subject, is written in a simple and easy to read manner which is far from academic cliché and embodies high academic style in its best meaning. However, the word 'textbook' even in its most positive meaning applies to this book only as a kind of mask that hides much more complex structure, not only stylistically but by its content and pragmatism as well. As the professor herself admits, this book does not belong to any classic genres. This is not a history of historiography, not a methodology of history and this is not an introduction to history as well.
