Die Charakterfestigkeit, mit der heilige und spirituelle Frauen für ihren Glauben einstanden und mehr wagten, als zu ihrer Zeit üblich war, machte sie zu ebenso verehrten wie gefürchteten Frauen. Im Klosterleben wirkten sie als Dichterinnen, Malerinnen, Musikerinnen und Lehrerinnen und nahmen Einfluss auf die sie umgebende Welt. Und noch heute vermögen sie als Schutzpatroninnen Kraft, Trost und Beistand zu spenden. Die Faszination, die seit jeher von ihnen ausgeht, schlug sich nicht zuletzt auch in der Kunst nieder, wo sie berühmten Malern immer wieder als Sujet und Inspiration dienten. Antje Southern stellt in dieser reich illustrierten Geschichte vom Mittelalter bis ins 20. Jahrhundert legendäre Märtyrerinnen, Mystikerinnen, Prophetinnen, Denkerinnen und Heilerinnen vor – von der Heiligen Maria über Maria Magdalena hin zu Hildegard von Bingen, Teresa von Ávila, Johanna von Orleans u. v. a. –, die berühmte Künstler in ihren Gemälden unsterblich gemacht haben. Mit Gemälden von Giotto, Raffael, Lucas Cranach d. Ä., Peter Paul Rubens, John Everett Millais, John William Waterhouse u. v. a.

Wir lernen ihn mitunter erst spät besser kennen, erkennen uns aber, ob wir wollen oder nicht, in ihm wieder, je älter wir selbst werden: unseren Vater. Das Lesebuch »Lieber Papa!« enthält Erinnerungen von Lily Brett, Annie Ernaux oder Philip Roth, die von ihren berührenden Erlebnissen als Tochter oder Sohn mit diesem Mann erzählen. Wer ist er eigentlich, warum scheint er uns oft weniger vertraut zu sein als unsere Mutter? Lars Brandt weiß, dass von ihm keine Küsse zu erwarten waren, Arno Geiger hat seinen dementen Vater als König im Exil betreut und Axel Hacke berichtet, wie es sich anfühlt, auf der anderen Seite zu stehen, selbst Vater zu sein. Das Buch, liebevoll illustriert von Antje Damm, ist letztlich eine kleine literarische Reise zu uns selbst.

Coast Crew (Vol. 1) - Whaler’s Gold An interactive Crime adventure with fiddly Quiz Illustrations On the rugged North Sea coast, just behind the dike, lies the sleepy little village of Breeksiel. Apart from a few tourists and seagulls, hardly anyone strays there. But appearances are deceptive: the sea washes great secrets, old legends and real crooks into the small coastal town. Solve exciting cases together with Jan, Rocco and Nele and help the three hobby detectives in their investigations! Watching the sunset from the harbor or strolling along the dike and searching the beach for treasures from the sea - Jan and Rocco can't imagine anything better. Together with Rocco's grandpa Hannes, they regularly bring their finds to the Klabauterbude, their secret hiding place in grandpa Hannes' workshop. When the two friends, together with Nele, one day come across a mysterious box in the slack water, a completely different wind suddenly blows in Breeksiel! Three dangerous crooks appear in the small coastal village, who want to get their hands on the box and seem to stop at nothing. Ose, Bernhard and Tolek carry weapons and are anything but harmless. What is the story behind this mysterious find? The three amateur detectives learn about the legend of the whalers: In former times the captured gold was stowed away in such boxes on the whalers' ships. The nasty guys know this too - a race across Breeksiel and against time takes place, in which the children are even held. But Jan, Rocco and Nele are able to arrest the crooks and solve the riddle of the gold in the box. This must be celebrated with a homemade dyke pizza before the next case awaits the coastal crew!

Commodity futures prices exploded in 2007-08 and concerns about a new type of participant in commodity futures markets began to emerge. Market participants, regulators, and civic organizations began raising concerns that inflows from new "commodity index" investments were driving the increases in commodity prices instead of economic fundamentals. The main argument was that unprecedented buying pressure from these speculative long-only futures traders created massive bubbles that resulted in prices substantially exceeding fundamental value. At the time, it was not uncommon to link concerns about speculation and high prices to world hunger, food crises, and civil unrest. Naturally, this outcry resulted in numerous regulatory proposals to restrict speculation in commodity futures markets through transaction taxes, speculative position limits, and even the bizarre idea of a "virtual reserve" whereby a public agency would take futures positions opposite speculators. At the core, these assertions raised major economic questions about the efficiency of price discovery in commodity futures markets. Moreover, these so-called remedies did not come without a potential cost. Burdensome regulations would increase compliance and risk sharing costs across the global food system-lowering prices for producers and increasing costs to consumers. To guide this debate, a rigorous approach was needed to understand the dynamics between prices and commodity index activity. This book documents a curated selection of papers on the impact of index investment on commodity futures prices. The chronology of the papers roughly follows the timeline of our involvement in the world-wide debate about commodity speculation as it evolved after 2007. The 10 papers follow the evolving speculation debate with new author forwards highlighting the contribution and impact. Policy-makers, researchers, and market participants will find this not only as useful documentation of the debate; but, also a natural starting point when high commodity prices inevitably create the next speculation backlash.
