        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Sveta Dorosheva, Svenja Becker

        Anne Frank wurde in Deutschland geboren und wuchs in einer liebevollen Familie auf. Als der Zweite Weltkrieg ausbrach, musste sich Anne mit ihrer Familie in einem Unterschlupf in Amsterdam verstecken. Dort schrieb Anne ihr berühmtes Tagebuch, in dem sie von ihrem Glauben an das Gute im Menschen und ihrer Hoffnung auf Frieden berichtet. Nach dem Krieg eroberten ihre Aufzeichnungen die Herzen der Menschen und wurden zu einem der bedeutendsten Tagebüchern des 20. Jahrhunderts. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Persönlichkeiten: Jede dieser Frauen, ob Künstlerin, Pilotin oder Wissenschaftlerin, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen. Für welches Alter sind diese Bücher gedacht? Für Babys das perfekte Geschenk zur Begrüßung in eine Welt voller Träume! Und Eltern werden in schlaflosen Nächten von diesen Büchern dazu ermutigt, das Vorlesen zu einem selbstverständlichen Teil des Lebens zu machen. Kleinkinder werden von den Illustrationen verzaubert sein – sie werden zahlreiche Dinge entdecken. Auch sind die Bücher großartige „Vokabeltrainer“! 3- bis 5-Jährige werden alles, Illustrationen und Texte, geradezu in sich aufsaugen! 6-, 8- und 10-Jährige haben ein ausgeprägteres Verständnis für die Illustrationen und die Bedeutung der Geschichte – es geht nicht nur darum, sich selbst zu akzeptieren und die eigenen Zukunftsträume zu verwirklichen, sondern auch darum, andere so zu akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Später: Die Bücher sind gute Geschenke zu jedem Anlass, denn die Träume der Kindheit können das ganze Leben lang Wirklichkeit werden.

        Fine Arts in the Era of Mao Zedong

        by Zou Yuejin

        The book put forward the concept of 'Fine Arts in the Era of Mao Zedong' academically for the first time. Starting from the publication of Mao Zedong's Talks at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art in 1942 and ending with the passing away of Mao Zedong, the book surveys this period by collecting more than 1,000 pictures and other data, which are arranged under eight themes. The book restores this period of the history of Chinese fine arts to the original form and gives prominence to the time features embodied in this phenomenon of fine arts. The introduction in the book expounds fine arts in the era of Mao Zedong in a macroscopic manner, discussing historical background, thoughts of literature and art, social environment and theme typology concisely and tersely so as to provide readers with theoretical perspective and approaches in understanding and perceiving this phenomenon of fine arts.

        Anne Clifford's Great Books of Record

        by Jessica L. Malay

        In her Great Books of Record Anne Clifford places herself within the dynamic history of the ancient Clifford family, providing an unbroken view into medieval and early modern life for nearly six centuries. In this annotated edition, we glimpse the lives of simple widows, traders, farmers, and labourers juxtaposed with the adventures of soldiers, lords and ladies, princes and princesses. Throughout, Anne Clifford asserts the centrality of women to the success of noble families, including the monarchy. Her Great Books draws upon medieval traditions and early modern scholarship and builds upon these through biographies of the Clifford lords and ladies, along with an extended biography of her mother Margaret Russell and her own autobiographical 'Life of Mee'. Those interested in the lives of medieval and early modern women, changes in culture, the effect of the political upon individuals, and the inspiring life of Anne Clifford will find this a rich and rewarding book.

        Einfacher leben

        by Marie Bernhard, Frank Badur

        Ist es nicht vorstellbar, sich etwas einzuschränken? Kann man nicht mit weniger prestigeträchtigen »Erfahrungen« leichter das Gleichgewicht des Lebens halten? Könnte es nicht sogar sein, dass man, wenn man unnötigen Ballast abwirft, zwar Eitelkeiten verliert, aber elementare Dinge hinzugewinnt? Weniger Hektik, mehr Nachhaltigkeit, weniger Geschwätz, mehr Intensität, weniger artifizielle Vergnügungen, mehr Hinwendung zur Natur? Die Angebote dieser Anthologie reichen von Seneca bis Henry David Thoreau, von Anne Morrow Lindbergh bis Marlen Haushofer. Und begleitet wird das Lesebuch von der scheinbar einfachen, aber wirkungsmächtigen Farbfeldmalerei Frank Badurs. Für Texte und Bilder könnte gelten: »Man folge seiner inneren Stimme, und sie wird einem stündlich neue Aussichten eröffnen!«

        by Roland Sedivy

        — True crime stories from the morgue — Famous deaths and autopsy stories resolved, such as Antarctic explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton and the case of Anne Greene, who survived her execution by hanging The post-mortem examination. A glimpse inside the interior of the human being. Many find the idea fascinating; for others it is creepy or even repugnant. There are still numerous myths and horror stories surrounding the autopsy, many of them associated with primal human fears such as that of being buried alive, which have existed since Antiquity. It is precisely for this reason that it is important to carry out the post-mortem examination with the utmost conscientiousness. Pathologist Roland Sedivy provides an exciting insight into his profession. Profound and with tremendous humour, he tells us about the early days of the autopsy, and shares with us some macabre and some mysterious cases.

        Changing gender roles and attitudes to family formation in Ireland

        by Series edited by Rob Kitchin, Margret Fine-Davis

        Recent decades have witnessed major changes in gender roles and family patterns, as well as a falling birth rate in Ireland and the rest of Europe. While the traditional family is now being replaced in many cases by new family forms, we do not know the reasons why people are making the choices they are and whether or not these choices are leading to greater well-being. While demographic research has attempted to explain the new trends in family formation and fertility, there has been little research on people's attitudes to family formation and having children. This book presents the results of the first major study to examine people's attitudes to family formation and childbearing in Ireland. Based on a nationwide representative sample of 1,404 men and women in the childbearing age group, the study was carried out against a backdrop of changing gender role attitudes and behaviour as well as significant demographic change.
