Der Klang der Erinnerung

Roman | Coming-of-Age-Geschichte über die Kraft der Musik und der Freundschaft

by Jo Browning Wroe

Birmingham, 1966: William feiert gerade seinen Abschluss als Einbalsamierer, als ihn die Nachricht erreicht, dass im walisischen Aberfan ein Haldenrutsch unzählige Menschen unter sich begraben hat und freiwillige Helfer gesucht werden. Er macht sich umgehend auf den Weg, und während er gemeinsam mit den Bestattern vor Ort arbeitet, ruft ein Musikstück im Radio schmerzhafte Erinnerungen in ihm wach: Erinnerungen an seine Zeit als Chorknabe in Cambridge, die er versucht hatte, zu vergessen. Damals hatte er nur einen Wunsch gehabt: das berühmte Solo in Allegris Miserere zu singen, das in ihm schon als kleines Kind die Liebe zur Musik entfacht hatte. Doch an dem großen Tag kommt es zu einem tiefen Zerwürfnis mit seiner Mutter und einer Entscheidung, die seinen weiteren Weg bestimmen wird.Als er nun aus Aberfan nach Birmingham zurückkehrt, mit Bildern im Kopf, die ihn sein Leben lang nicht loslassen werden, ist er bereit, sich seiner Vergangenheit zu stellen und sich mit seiner Mutter, mit der ihn einst eine liebevolle Beziehung verband, zu versöhnen. Ein bewegender Coming-of-Age-Roman über die fragilen Bande, die uns mit geliebten Menschen verbinden – darüber, dass es möglich ist, die Vergangenheit und die eigene Schuld zu überwinden und Vergebung und Trost zu finden.

The Duchess of Malfi

By John Webster

by John Brown, David Bevington, John Brown, Richard Dutton, Alison Findlay, Helen Ostovich

More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before, John Webster's The Duchess of Malfi is here presented in an improved, accessible and throughly up-to-date edition. Starting with the authoritative Revels Plays edition of 1964, John Russell Brown has augmented the notes and collations, and casts new light on Webster's dramatic dialogue and on the stage action. An entirely new introduction encompasses a stage history from its well-documented early performances right through to recent productions in the twenty first century. The bibliography has also been expanded. Students, actors, directors, academics and theatre-goers will find here a reappraisal of Webster's artistry in the greatest age of English theatre. ;

Agribusiness Reforms in China

The Case of Wool

by John W Longworth, Colin G Brown

China is emerging as an agribusiness giant. Domestic reforms and the readmission of China to GATT will integrate rapidly the massive Chinese agribusiness sector into international markets. China has already become a dominant player in world wool markets. Developments in relation to wool, therefore, are a harbinger of what is likely to happen in regard to many other agribusiness commodities. This book, published in collaboration with the Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR), provides a detailed analysis of how the Chinese are reforming their wool marketing system. Wool is grown mainly by people of minority nationalities who are among the poorest in China and who live in the environmentally fragile pastoral region. As a result, wool markets have an impact on social, environmental and developmental issues as well as being of major relevance to China’s strategic and trade interests. This book, therefore, is concerned with many of the most difficult issues confronting Chinese society and its interaction with the world community. By examining these aspects of contemporary China through the case of wool, the authors provide first hand insights into the detailed impact of the economic reform process on particular social groups and institutions. Most of the earlier literature on economic reforms in China has concentrated on general economic reforms and sector-wide or industry-wide effects.

The Duchess of Malfi

By John Webster (Revels Student Editions)

by John Brown

More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before, John Webster's The Duchesss of Malfi is here presented in an accessible and thoroughly up-to-date edition. Based on the often reprinted Revels Plays Edition of 1964, the notes have been augmented to cast further light on Webster's amazing dialogue and on the stage action which it implies. An entirely new introduction sets the tragedy in the context of pre-Civil War England and gives a revealing view of its themes, action and visual imagery. From its well-documented early performances to the two productions seen in the West End of London in the 1995-96 season, a stage history gives an account of the play in performance. Students, actors, directors and theatre-goers will find here a reappraisal of Webster's artistry in the tragedy which stands in the very first rank of plays from perhaps the greatest age of English theatre, and reasons why it has lived on stage with renewed force in the last decades of the twentieth century. ;
