October 1991Sonette aus dem Portugiesischen
by Elizabeth Barrett-Browning
Elizabeth Barrett wurde am 6. März 1806 in Durham / England geboren. Sie genoß eine privilegierte Kindheit und war äußerst belesen, v.a. in antiker Literatur. Im Alter von zwölf Jahren verfaßte sie ihr erstes episches Gedicht. 1826 wurde ihr erstes Werk – anonym – veröffentlicht, An Essay on Mind and Other Poems. 1844 lernte sie den um sechs Jahre jüngeren Dichter Robert Browning kennen, den sie gegen den Willen ihres Vaters heiratete. 1846 floh das Paar nach Italien und lebte von da an in Florenz. 1850 wurde Sonnets from the Portuguese veröffentlicht, eine der bekanntesten Sammlungen von Liebesgedichten in englischer Sprache. In ihren späteren Werken verarbeitete sie auch politische und soziale Themen, wie beispielsweise die männliche Dominanz über Frauen in ihrem Versepos Aurora Leigh (1857). Elizabeth Barrett Browning starb am 29. Juni 1861 in Florenz.

Humanities & Social SciencesFebruary 2024‘Survival Capitalism’ and the Big Bang
Culture, contingency and capital in the making of the 1980s financial revolution
by Emma Barrett
This book about the Thatcher government and the City of London tells the compelling human story of the people and processes that made Britain's 1980s financial revolution. Fusing insider testimony with new archival discoveries, it examines high stakes and networked solutions, and uncovers new objectives that drove reforms. In so doing it demystifies a major shift in capitalism. This has implications for our understandings of government and capitalism, from the way we think about the origins of subsequent financial crises to today's growing inequalities. Survival Capitalism offers new insights into the last major restructuring of the City, disrupts myths surrounding the logics of the market, and pays attention to people and processes at a time when the City of London again faces major change as Britain seeks to find its place outside the European Union in the wake of Brexit.

Rural planningJuly 2007Decentralization and the Social Economics of Development
Lessons from Kenya
by Edited by Christopher B Barrett, Andrew G Mude, John M Omiti
There has been broad agreement in recent years that decentralization is key in achieving democracy at local level. Examining the successes, failures, possibilities and limitations of efforts across rural Kenya, this book analyses the socioeconomic and institutional prerequisites for successful decentralization, and the role of community groups and producer organizations in reducing poverty and promoting empowerment.Original empirical studies explore the fundamental elements of coherent, inclusive and ultimately effective decentralization, and how these can be applied to efforts across the African continent and beyond.
