Humanities & Social SciencesJuly 1997The new woman
by Sally Ledger
Sexually transgressive, politically astute and determined to claim educational and employment rights equal to those enjoyed by men, the new woman took centre stage in the cultural landscape of late-Victorian Britain. By comparing the fictional representations with the lived experience of the new woman, Ledger's book makes a major contribution to an understanding of the 'woman question' at the fin de siecle. She alights on such disparate figures as Eleanor Marx, Gertrude Dix, Dracula, Oscar Wilde, Olive Schreiner and Radclyffe Hall. Focusing mainly on the last two decades of the nineteenth century, the book's later chapters project forward into the twentieth century, considering the relationship between new woman fiction and early modernism as well as the socio-sexual inheritance of the 'second generation' new woman writers. ;

January 2014Aus dem Berliner Journal
by Max Frisch
Es gilt als einer der großen Schätze in Max Frischs Nachlass, das legendäre Berliner Journal, das er begann, als er 1973 in West-Berlin in der Sarrazinstraße eine Wohnung bezog. Danach hat der Autor es selbst mit einer Sperrfrist von zwanzig Jahren nach seinem Tod versehen, der „privaten Sachen“ wegen, die er dort festhielt. 2014 ist das Journal, in Auszügen, erstmals erschienen, ein Fest für das Feuilleton, eine Fundgrube für die Leser. Jetzt erscheint es als Taschenbuch. „Ich konnte das Buch … nicht mehr weglegen.“ Tobias Rüther, Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung „Ich las diesen Max Frisch jetzt und war total beeindruckt. Nicht nur von dem psychologischen Reichtum, den Max Frisch zu entfalten vermag, sondern auch von der delikaten Stilartistik … das ist wirklich ein toller Autor.“ Ijoma Mangold „Hier ist der ganze Max Frisch in all seiner thematischen Vielfalt, in seinem psychologischen Scharfsinn und seiner gesellschaftlichen Neugier wiederzuentdecken.“ Jörg Magenau, Süddeutsche Zeitung „Wenige konnten die Träume unserer in sich selbst verliebten, vorwärtsdrängenden Epoche besser beschwören als Max Frisch.“ Iris Radisch, Die Zeit

May 2022In the Shadow of War
Diary notes from Ukraine
by Christoph Brumme
"What can you learn in war? Do you become numb, do you get used to it at some point? Does war make you "hard", uncaring, above pain? No. These are just clichés. Every day brings new horrors. At best, one learns for some time to suppress strong feelings, because to give in to them would weaken one's life instinct." In a very stirring and shocking, but sometimes humorous language, Christoph Brumme tells of the situation in Ukraine, the everyday life of his family and friends, of fears, longings and political assessments. The diary entries of the war and the resistance of the Ukrainians, starting from the first signs of the impending war in mid-January 2022 until the printing of this book, 1st May 2022, impressively bear witness to the brutality of these events.

May 2008Die Zettel des Kuriers
Journal 1990 - 1999
by Paul Nizon, Wend Kässens
"Da sitzt einer beim Schreiben vor seiner Maschine und beginnt zu spielen. Das ist die Ausgangslage, das ist der Beginn. Der Beginn ist ohne Plan und ohne bestimmtes Wissen und Vorhaben. Ein Mensch, der anfängt zu sprechen oder zu murmeln und der sich im Grunde bekennen, das heißt seiner Existenz und des Lebens vergewissern möchte. Er fängt irgendwo an und nimmt sich und den Leser auf die Reise mit. Die Reise führt durch die Gegenwart und Erinnerung und vielleicht auch ins Utopische, sie führt durch Unwetter und Ängste ebenso wie durch den Traum, sie staut sich an Reflexionen und ergießt sich in Emotionen, sie sucht nach dem Glück und durchquert die Einsamkeit etc., und dabei entsteht das Seismogramm einer heutigen Existenz und, wenn wir Glück haben, der Reichtum des Lebens, ja, und hoffentlich auch Schönheit und Glanz." "Für mich ist dies Journal die Anatomie einer seltenen Spezies Künstler und die Radiographie der dazugehörigen schöpferischen Prozesse. Dazu die fabelhafteste Unabhängigkeitserklärung und des weiteren ein seltenes, vielleicht exemplarisches Dokument. Basta."

October 2004Das Drehbuch der Liebe
Journal 1973–1979
by Paul Nizon, Wend Kässens, Wend Kässens
Ein Mann in der Mitte des Lebens, Schriftsteller. Auf einer Lesereise, unterwegs durch fremde Länder, zieht er sich in einer dramatischen, ebenso ausweglos wie aussichtslos scheinenden Begegnung mit einer jungen Frau das zu, was er später eine »Liebesvergiftung« nennen wird. Nach dieser Begegnung findet er sich nicht mehr zurecht, er verkommt. Auch das Verhältnis zu seiner jahrelangen Lebensgefährtin, die er erst kürzlich geheiratet hat, wird dadurch zerstört. Er übersiedelt, nein flieht von Zürich nach Paris, wo ihm eine verstorbene Tante eine winzige Wohnung hinterlassen hat. In dieser Zelle wartet er, wider alle Vernunft, daß die junge Geliebte sich für ihn entscheidet und daß das Schreiben wieder von ihm Besitz ergreift. Um die Wartezeit bis dahin zu überbrücken, klammert er sich an seine täglichen Notate, in denen er die Geschichte dieser verrückten Liebe, seine Geschichte bewahrt: Das Drehbuch der Liebe.Paul Nizon erzählt in seinem Journal – diesem Fortsetzungsroman eines einzigartigen Künstlerlebens – von der grausamen Verzauberung durch die Liebe, von den Exerzitien der Einsamkeit in Paris, seiner Sehnsucht nach Neugeburt durch die Zaubermacht der Metropole und nicht zuletzt von den Lektionen, die das Schreiben und die Frauen ihm erteilten.

Insecticide & herbicide technologySeptember 1995Riceland Spiders of South and Southeast Asia
by A T Barrion, Jim A Litsinger
Spiders are among the most omnipresent and numerous predators in both agricultural and natural ecosystems, and without them insect pest populations would become out of control. Their potential as biological control agents can only be appreciated through a greater understanding of their abundance and species composition in different ecological systems. There is therefore a great need for literature providing guidance on spider identification. The spider fauna of several cultivated crops, in a number of regions of the world, has been well documented. There have been some previous attempts to record the spider fauna of rice in South and Southeast Asia, but these are scattered in the journal literature. This volume provides a comprehensive illustrated guide that can be used by specialists and novices to identify these spiders. The majority of the species covered were collected from a diversity of habitats in the Philippines. The bulk of the book consists of keys to the identification of families, genera and species of Philippine spiders, illustrated by more than 1000 line drawings and 100 colour photographs. A total of 339 species belonging to 134 genera within 26 families are recognized. Of these, 253 species and seven genera are new to science. Distribution maps for individual species and a classification scheme for Philippine riceland spiders are also provided. Overall, the work represents a major contribution to the literature for those interested in spiders or more generally in biological control and crop protection.
