This is the first in-depth study of post-war female religious life. It draws on archival materials and a remarkable set of eighty interviews to place Catholic sisters and nuns at the heart of the turbulent 1960s, integrating their story of social change into a larger British and international one. Shedding new light on how religious bodies engaged in modernisation, it addresses themes such as the Modern Girl and youth culture, '1968', generational discourse, post-war modernity, the voluntary sector and the women's movement. Women religious were at the forefront of the Roman Catholic Church's movement of adaptation and renewal towards the world. This volume tells their stories in their own words.

Posadas, summer of 2001. A twenty-year-old girl returns from Buenos Aires to her family home to help withdraw a sum of American dollars from a bank safe deposit box. These are the savings of her mother and her second father. Against the backdrop of Argentina’s crisis and growing social unrest, battling the heat and immersed in the provincial rhythm, her return to her hometown awakens a stream of speculations about money and family, the past and the future, wealth and poverty, the Capital and the provinces. As the narrative progresses with the relentless pace of a powerful river, the current settles into lucid observations alongside a touch of humor and a subtle irony about Argentina's cyclical crises, making this novel a revealing, immensely enjoyable read—almost a catharsis or an epiphany.

Many books have been written about mate—its properties, benefits, history, and ritual. Al borde de la boca, however, intuits what none of those books consider: the firsthand experience of drinking mate. It is an experience of both body and mind, better evoked through literature than through scientific vocabulary. Sensitive and precise, this essay captures that experience and puts it into words without ever exhausting its private, personal dimension.

Die Begegnung der stolzen und leidenschaftlichen Zigeunerin Carmen mit Don José, der ihr rettungslos verfällt und sie schließlich tötet: das ist einer der bekanntesten Stoffe der Weltliteratur und zugleich Vorlage für die erfolgreichste Oper aller Zeiten, »Carmen« von Georges Bizet. Zahlreiche Verfilmungen machten die Figur endgültig zum Mythos. Die meisterhafte Erzählung von Prosper Mérimée ist auch für den, der die Geschichte zu kennen glaubt, eine Entdeckung. In der schnörkellosen, modernen Übersetzung von Kristof Wachinger erstrahlt die widersprüchliche Figur der Carmen, ihre unbändige Freiheitsliebe, ihre Unerschrockenheit und ihr respektloser Witz, in einem neuen faszinierenden Licht. Die bekannte Illustratorin Larissa Bertonasco setzt die besten Szenen einfallsreich ins Bild.
