        Barockkonzert

        Novelle

        by Anneliese Botond, Alejo Carpentier

        Barockkonzert, entstanden 1974, ist ein überaus anregender und vergnüglicher historisch- phantastischer Kurzroman des kubanischen Schriftstellers und Musikologen Alejo Carpentier (1904–1980). Ein Mexikaner, der zu Beginn des 18. Jahrhunderts nach Venedig reist, erlebt im Ospedale della Pietà eine ausgefallene 'jam-session' mit Starbesetzung: Außer den siebzig Waisenmädchen des Orchesters wirken Vivaldi (Geige), Scarlatti (Cembalo) und Händel an der Orgel mit – dazu des Mexikaners Diener, der schwarze Filomeno (Schlagzeug).

        Antonio and Mellida

        John Marston

        by David Bevington, W Gair, Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Helen Ostovich

        Antonio and Mellida was the first play by John Marston performed by the newly revived Paul's Company in 1599. Marston sought to display a variety of talents, comic, tragic, satiric and historical, advertising his own dramatic skills and the prowess of the choristers of Paul's. The play is based on incidents in the reigns of Sforza, Francesco, Galeazzo and Lodovico, who were Dukes of Milan in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Marston displays a detailed knowledge of the dramatic works of Shakespeare, Seneca, Kyd and Nashe as well as the prose of Sidney, Erasmus, Montaigne, Florio and others. This edition relates the play to a wide variety of literary contexts. It also includes a comprehensive introduction, an analysis of staging, and full commentary. The text is based on a collation of all known copies of the 1602 Quarto and is presented in a thoroughly modernised format. ;

        Stille

        Erzählung

        by Antonio Benedetto, Curt Meyer-Clason

        Die 1964 in Buenos Aires erschienene Erzählung El silenciero von Antonio Di Benedetto handelt von einem Mann, der besessen ist von dem Verlangen nach Stille und der schließlich, als Brandstifter verdächtigt, im Gefängnis landet. Überraschend an dieser Prosa ist der völlige Verzicht auf Episoden, die Reduktion der Schilderung auf Aussagesätze, deren hervorstehendes Merkmal der Lakonismus ist. »Vor Jahren, als in Frankreich noch kein Mensch vom nouveau roman sprach, nahm Antonio Di Benedetto mit seinen ersten Erzählungen das Programm dieser neuen Literatur vorweg.« Alfonso Sola Gonzáles

        Dientes (Teeth)

        by Antonio Ortuño, Flavia Zorrrilla Dragol

        After the accidental loss of a baby tooth, Natalia recounts the girl´s questions, what happens at home with her mother and her bunny Paz, with her father and his books, how she comes to find the skull and skeleton, and about Hugo, the big kid at school. It starts as something as small as a baby tooth and turns into something as large as the human body, the world... and the solution to what seems like child´s game, turns to be what matters the most.

        Southern interregnum

        Remaking hegemony in Brazil, India, China, and South Africa

        by Alf Gunvald Nilsen, Karl von Holdt, Ruy Braga, Ching Kwan Lee, Fabio Luis Barbosa dos Santos

        How do governing elites in the global South attempt to remake hegemony in a conjuncture of durable crisis? This is the question at the core of Southern interregnum, a comparative conjunctural analysis of hegemonic projects in Brazil, India, China, and South Africa. Working with a Gramscian notion of crisis, centred on the interregnum as an enduring period of instability and uncertainty, in which hegemonic authority erodes and competing projects for crisis resolution emerge, the book proposes a novel critical reading of the convulsions that are currently reshaping the political economy of the global South and the world-system. Mapping the variegated trajectories of elite projects to reconcile accumulation and legitimation - and probing the limits of these projects - the book breaks new ground in the study of the contemporary global South.
