        Geschichten vom Herrn Keuner

        Geschichten vom Herrn Keuner

        by Ulf K., Bertolt Brecht, Ulf K., Bertolt Brecht

        »›Woran arbeiten Sie?‹ wurde Herr K. gefragt. Herr K. antwortete: ›Ich habe viel Mühe, ich bereite meinen nächsten Irrtum vor.‹« Diese Situation ist typisch für die Geschichten vom Herrn Keuner: eine einfache, alltägliche Ausgangsfrage und die überraschende, unerwartete Antwort. Die dialogisch-dialektische Struktur dieser parabelhaften Prosaminiaturen und ihr subtiler Humor eignen sich eigentlich hervorragend für die Umsetzung als Comic. Dennoch kann es nicht verwundern, dass sich bislang noch niemand an sie herangetraut hat, denn: Wie lassen sich Denkbilder in gezeichnete Bilder umsetzen? Und wie lässt sich Bertolt Brechts Kunst- und Spielfigur Keuner, die durchaus autobiografische Züge trägt und dennoch als ein Mann ohne Eigenschaften gilt, überhaupt darstellen? Ulf K., einer der international renommiertesten deutschen ComicKünstler, hat es nun gewagt und überrascht mit einem Herrn K., der absolut zeitlos-modern ist und dennoch unser Zeitgenosse sein könnte. Diese schwungvoll-frische Adaption erweckt den Eindruck, Brecht habe die Geschichten soeben erst für unsere unmittelbare Gegenwart geschrieben und uns gemeinsam mit Ulf K. ein ebenso intellektuelles wie ästhetisches Vergnügen beschert.

        Rappen lernen

        by Mark Greif

        'Unsere Sprache kostet nichts. Sie gehört uns allen. Man kann sie nicht privatisieren.' 1989 beging Mark Greif einen großen Fehler: Er entschied sich für Indie-Rock – und gegen Hip-Hop. Als er 20 Jahre später versucht, selbst Rappen zu lernen, um dieses Versäumnis wiedergutzumachen, stößt er auf schier unüberwindbare Hindernisse: die anspruchsvolle Atemtechnik, das Wort 'Nigger', die Affinität zu Materialismus und Gewalt. In 'Rappen lernen' setzt Greif nicht nur dem Hip- Hop ein Denkmal, sondern er entwirft zugleich eine Kulturgeschichte von Schwarz und Weiß und erzählt davon, was es bedeutet, in neoliberalen Zeiten erwachsen zu werden.

        Conservative thinkers

        The key contributors to the political thought of the modern Conservative Party

        by Mark Garnett, Kevin Hickson

        This book outlines and evaluates the political thought of the Conservative Party through a detailed examination of its principal thinkers from Harold Macmillan to the present. Traditionally, the Conservative Party has been regarded as a vote-gathering machine rather than a vehicle for ideas. This book redresses the balance through a series of biographical essays examining the thought of those who have contributed most to the development of ideas within the party. The chapters benefit from archival research and interviews with leading Conservatives. The recent revival of Conservative fortunes makes the book particularly timely. The book begins with an introductory chapter explaining the role of ideology in the Conservative Party. It then traces the political thought of the Conservative Party through its principal theorists since the 1930s. These are Harold Macmillan, R. A. Butler, Quintin Hogg, Enoch Powell, Angus Maude, Keith Joseph, the 'traditionalists' (Maurice Cowling, T. E. 'Peter' Utley, Peregrine Worsthorne, Shirley Letwin and Roger Scruton), Ian Gilmour, John Redwood and David Willetts. The book concludes with an overall assessment of the political thought of the Conservative Party and the relevance of past debates for contemporary Conservatism. The book will be of considerable interest to academics and non-academics alike; for those who have a special interest in the Conservative Party but also for any student of contemporary British Politics. ;

        Kiki Man Ray

        Kunst, Liebe und Rivalität im Paris der 20er Jahre

        by Mark Braude

        Man nannte ihn »Man Ray« und sie die »Königin von Montparnasse«: Emmanuel Radnitzky und Alice Ernestine Prin.Kiki de Montparnasse begeisterte als Sängerin in Nachtclubs, plauderte mit Jean Cocteau und Marcel Duchamp in den angesagten Cafés von Paris und saß Malern wie Modigliani, Calder und Soutine Modell. Ihre Autobiografie – mit einem Vorwort von Ernest Hemingway – kam in Frankreich ganz groß raus und in Amerika auf den Index. Und das alles noch vor ihrem dreißigsten Lebensjahr.Als Kiki und Man Ray sich kennenlernen, ist sie 20 und eine feste Größe in der Montparnasse-Bohème, er 31, ein namenloser Fotograf aus Amerika, gerade erst in Paris angekommen. Er fotografiert sie, sie werden ein Paar, es folgt eine acht Jahre währende stürmische Liebesbeziehung. Mit ikonischen Aufnahmen wie »Violon d’Ingres« und »African mask« – ihr Rücken, ihr makelloses Gesicht – begründet Man Ray seine Karriere, sie öffnet ihm die Türen zu Galeristen und Künstlern. Er ermuntert sie, selbst zu malen: Alltagsszenen, Erinnerungen an ihre Kindheit im Burgund. Aber als sie auch damit Erfolg hat, ist er eifersüchtig und macht sie klein. Wa war es, das diese junge Frau wie keine andere zur Verkörperung einer ganzen Ära machte? In seinem akribisch recherchierten, glänzend geschriebenen Buch versucht Mark Braude, dem Mythos Kiki auf die Spur zu kommen, das Rätsel ihrer Anziehungskraft zu entschlüsseln. Erstmals wird Kikis prägender Einfluss nicht nur auf Man Ray, sondern auf die gesamte Künstlerszene vom Montparnasse deutlich.

        Republican passions

        Family, friendship and politics in nineteenth-century France

        by Susan K. Foley

        Republican passions demonstrates the crucial role of family and friendship networks in the creation of the French Third Republic. Based on the family archives of Léon Laurent-Pichat, journalist, Deputy and Life Senator, this study paints a rich picture of republican intimacy, sociability and political activity during the Second Empire and early Third Republic. It explores republican friendships and family connections as men and women worked together for the cause. In republican circles, as the book illustrates, the intimate and political realms were not separate but deeply intertwined and interdependent.

        Irish Home Rule

        by Alan O'Day, Mark Greengrass

        Irish Home Rule considers the pre-eminent issue in British politics during the late nineteenth and early twentieth-centuries. It is the first account to explain the various self-government plans, to place these in context and examine the motives for putting the schemes forward. The book distinguishes between moral and material home rulers, making the point that the first appealed especially to outsiders, some Protestants and the intelligentsia, who saw in self-government a means to reconcile Ireland's antagonistic traditions. In contrast, material home rulers viewed a Dublin Parliament as a forum of Catholic interests. This account appraises the home rule movement from a fresh angle, distinguishing it from the usual division drawn between physical force and constitutional nationalists It maintains that an ideological continuity runs from Young Ireland, the Fenians, the early home rulers including Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell, to the Gaelic Revivalists to the Men of 1916. These nationalists are distinguishable from material home rulers not on the basis of methods or strategy but by a fundamental ideological cleavage. ;

        German politics today

        Second edition

        by Geoffrey K. Roberts

        This revised and updated edition provides the reader with a comprehensive description and analysis of the institutions of the German political system. The historical development of German politics is surveyed, and special attention is given to the causes, course and consequences of German reunification. Where more detailed explanations of special topics are required, such as surplus seats in the electoral system, or the political career of Chancellor Merkel, these are provided in boxes set within the relevant chapters. Some information is provided in tabular form, such as the list of federal chancellors and federal presidents, the membership of trade unions, or election results. Appendices contain examples of important constitutional court cases, plus a survey of the political features of the sixteen Länder which make up the federal structure of the state. Each chapter offers suggestions for further reading. Accessibly written, with suggestions for further reading, this book offers a sound basis for all undergraduate courses focused on, or including, study of the German political system. The author's familiarity with all aspects of the German political system is evident from the authority with which he explains the structures and processes which form the basis of German politics.

        Immunology of Host-Ectoparasitic Arthropod Relationships

        by Edited by Stephen K Wikel

        Host immune responses to ectoparasitic arthropods are critical elements in determining the nature of animal host-arthropod relationships, including transmission of vector-borne pathogens. This is the first book to provide a comprehensive analysis for both the student and specialist of the emerging field of “immunoentomology”. Our fundamental understanding of this topic has increased dramatically in recent years. Chapters prepared by specialists from the USA, UK and Australia provide comprehensive reviews of key subjects. The book concludes with a consideration of the application of fundamental knowledge about the immunology of the host-arthropod interface to the development of anti-arthropod vaccines. It is aimed particularly at medical and veterinary entomologists and acarologists, as well as immunologists.

        Meine Familie im 20. Jahrhundert

        by Mark Mazower, Ulrike Bischoff

        »Das Familienmemoir eines großen Historikers und feinfühligen Schriftstellers mit dem Blick für die menschlichen Details.« Orhan Pamuk, Literaturnobelpreisträger Als sein Vater stirbt und er herausfinden soll, wie seine Großeltern bestattet wurden, tut Mark Mazower, was ein Historiker am besten kann: Er macht sich an die Archivarbeit. Schnell wird ihm klar, wie wenig er über seine Familie weiß. Und so beginnt Mazower, die bewegten Biografien seiner Vorfahren zu erforschen. Etwa die seines Großvaters Max, der als Mitglied des Allgemeinen Jüdischen Arbeiterbundes in Vilnius revolutionäre Schriften verbreitete, bevor er vor den Wirren des russischen Bürgerkriegs nach Großbritannien floh – der vier Sprachen beherrschte und später doch kein Wort über seine Vergangenheit verlor. Oder die von Max’ unehelichem Sohn, André, dem schwarzen Schaf der Familie, der mehrmals seine Nationalität wechselte, sich zeitweise im faschistischen Spanien niederließ und eine verschwörungstheoretische Abhandlung über die angeblichen Machenschaften eines jüdischen Geheimbundes verfasste. Mit großer Einfühlsamkeit zeichnet Mazower die Lebenswege seiner Angehörigen nach, die kreuz und quer über die historische Landkarte unseres Kontinents verlaufen: von der Sowjetunion während des Großen Terrors über das besetzte Paris bis in die neue Heimat im Norden Londons. Mit Was du nicht erzählt hast gelingt ihm etwas Außergewöhnliches: ein berührendes Familienmemoir, das zugleich die wechselhafte Geschichte eines ganzen Jahrhunderts erzählt.

        Lancashire

        by John K. Walton

        If England was 'the first industrial nation', Lancashire was emphatically the first industrial county the first to develop, over a wide area, the combination of steam-powered factory industry and urban sprawl which says 'Industrial Revolution' to most people. It was also one the first fully industrialised areas to experience catastrophic economic decline in the inter-war years. Much has been written about particular aspects of the Lancashire industrial experience, and the social causes and consequences of the changes that took place, but there is not full-length social history of the county as a whole, looking at developments in the long run and comparing and contrasting the patterns of change in the south-eastern textile district, on Merseyside and north of the Ribble. An explanation of Lancashire's unique social history since Elizabethan times is long overdue, and Lancashire a social history, 1558-1939 puts forward a distinctive point of view on the many areas of controversy. How did the 'Industrial Revolution' affect working-class living standards? Why did Lancashire become a stronghold both of Puritan activism and Roman Catholic survival, and what were the long-term consequences of this? Was the 'Industrial Revolution' really funded by the profits of the slave trade? Why was working-class Lancashire in the nineteenth century apparently first Chartist, then Conservative? Was Lancashire the original centre and true home of 'Victorian values', of a culture of thrift, enterprise and self-reliance? This is the first social history of an English county to span the centuries from the sixteenth to the twentieth, looking at all levels of society and analysing politics and the power structures as well as technological innovation and material wealth. More importantly, it studies a particular vital and controversial place and period, and takes account of continuities as well as changes. Aimed at the sixth former and general reader as well as the academic market, it should become essential reading for historians, and historical geographers, sociologists and economists. ;

        The Swiss Reformation

        The Swiss Reformation

        by Bruce Gordon, Mark Greengrass

        The Swiss Reformation was a seminal event of the sixteenth century which created a Protestant culture whose influence spread across Europe from Transylvania to Scotland. Offers the first comprehensive study of the Swiss Reformation and argues that the movement must be understood in terms of the historical evolution of the Swiss Confederation, its unique and fluid structures, the legacy of the mercenary trade, the distinctive character of Swiss theology, the powerful influence of Renaissance humanism, and, most decisively, the roles played by the dominant figures, Huldrych Zwingli and Heinrich Bullinger. Marked by astounding creative energy, incendiary preaching, burning political passions, peasant revolts, and breath-taking scholarship, as well as by painful divisions, civil war, executions and dashed hopes, the story of the Swiss Reformation is told with extensive use of primary sources. Explores the narrative of events before turning to consider themes such as the radical opposition, church and community, daily life in the Confederation, cultural achievements and the Swiss place in the wider European Reformation world. ;
