        Liebesgedichte

        by Nicolas Born, Tom Schulz

        "Es ist Sonntag/die Mädchen kräuseln sich und Wolken/ziehen durch die Wohnungen –". Nicolas Born (1937-1979) zählt heute zu den bedeutendsten Schriftstellern der deutschen Nachkriegsliteratur. Mit seinen Gedichten erregte er Anfang der siebziger Jahre Aufmerksamkeit. Er hatte sich auf den Weg gemacht über die konkrete Alltäglichkeit hin zu einer Schule der lyrischen Empfindsamkeit, die in seinen Gedichten einen neuen Ausdruck fand. Seine Gedichte wollen berühren, ohne sich aufzudrängen, sie sind eine zärtliche Geste, ein lässiger Wink. Das Thema der Liebe bleibt bei Born nie nur ein Gegenstand des Privaten, sondern es sucht die Idee der Gemeinschaft, die Vision einer solidarischen Gesellschaft. Es sucht nach dem Verhältnis von Mensch, Tier und Natur – zueinander und miteinander. In einem Nachwort zu Gedichten ihres Vaters schrieb Katharina Born: "Alle Gedichte meines Vaters sind Liebesgedichte." Die schönsten und trefflichsten hat der Lyriker Tom Schulz für diesen Band ausgewählt.

        Health and Natural Landscapes

        Concepts and Applications

        by Alan W Ewert, Denise Mitten, Jillisa Overholt

        Description Natural landscapes are intricately tied to human health and well-being. While contemporary lifestyles have caused people to feel disconnected from the natural environment, this relationship is now recognized as vitally important, with landscapes increasingly valued for their stress-reduction, aesthetic, and restorative benefits. Providing an overview of the history, theoretical concepts, and individual and societal implications of human connection to natural landscapes, this book considers natural landscapes' role as an antidote to our modern, predominantly urban society. It also delivers: - A robust, research-backed overview of the intersections between natural landscapes and human health; - A compendium of applications such as nature-based therapies, urban greenspaces, and adventure-based programming that promote health within specific populations of society and individuals; - Due consideration of crucial factors that can adversely affect health and landscape, such as climate change. Of critical importance as we continue to define the role that natural landscapes will play for future generations, this book should be required reading for policy makers, urban planners and industry practitioners. It provides a thorough grounding in understanding the intersections between health and natural landscapes, and will be a valuable resource for academicians and students from a broad range of disciplines including public health, leisure and tourism, environmental sciences, and geography.

A law-abiding persön David works conscientiously for the benefit of the Ümpire at the TV center, helping to create a news product that should be regularly consumed by all representatives of the üPopulation.
