        Carol Reed

        by Peter William Evans

        Carol Reed is one of the truly outstanding directors of British cinema, and one whose work is long overdue for reconsideration. This major study ranges over Reed's entire career, combining observation of general trends and patterns with detailed analysis of twenty films, both acknowledged masterpieces and lesser-known works. Evans avoids a simplistic auteurist approach, placing the films in their autobiographical, socio-political and cultural contexts and relating these to the analysis of Reed's art. The critical approach combines psychoanalysis, gender theory, and the analysis of form. Archival research is also relied on to clarify Reed's relations with his creative team, financial backers and others. Films examined include Bank Holiday, A Girl Must Live, Odd Man Out, The Fallen Idol, The Third Man, Night Train to Munich, The Way Ahead, Outcast of the Islands, Trapeze and Oliver!.

        Troja

        by Gustav Schwab, John Flaxman, Manfred Lemmer

        Bis heute haben Mythen nichts von ihrer Faszination verloren, im Gegenteil: Sie sind aktueller denn je; davon zeugt nicht zuletzt die mit sagenhaftem Staraufgebot gedrehte dreistündige Verfilmung des Trojanischen Kriegs von Wolfgang Petersen, die am 20. Mai in die deutschen Kinos kommt. In den Hauptrollen sind neben Brad Pitt, Peter O'Toole auch Orlando Bloom und Julie Christie zu sehen. Wer mehr über den Raub der schönen Helena, die List mit dem hölzernen Pferd, den Zweikampf zwischen Achilles und Hektor wissen will, sollte Gustav Schwabs Troja lesen.

        Between Ragnarok and welfare utopia: A cultural-historical deconstruction

        by Bernd Henningsen

        — Analysis of how we view Europe's North and how this image emerged — An outsider's perspective on Nordic societies and their self image — Serves as an introduction into Northern European culture and society Our image of Northern Europe has been shaped by projections and desires in the long history of encounters: berserkers and war atrocities, bad weather, beautiful nature, stable political systems, social welfare, equality and prosperity, peacefulness, low corruption, hygge and Bullerby – all this is part of the Nordic narrative. But what about the religious, linguistic and ethnic homogeneity, what about the muchvaunted Nordic cooperation? How do politics "work" in the North? Why are Northern Europeans the happiest people?

        Meines Vaters Liebling

        Roman

        by Carole L. Glickfeld, Mirjam Pressler

        Der wichtigste Mann im Leben eines Mädchens ist – häufig genug – ihr Vater. Schwierig, wenn es sich dabei um einen launischen Patriarchen handelt, der auch vor Prügeln nicht zurückschreckt. Noch schwieriger, wenn man erst neun Jahre alt ist und sein erklärter Liebling. Wie weit würde man gehen, um die Familie – die älteren Geschwister, die strenge, aber fürsorgliche Mutter – vor dem eigenen Vater in Schutz zu nehmen? Ruthie Zimmer meistert ihre Kindheit in einem der weniger glamourösen Viertel Manhattans mit Intelligenz und wacher Neugierde. Zwanzig Jahre später, als erwachsene Frau, kehrt sie dorthin zurück und wagt sich an die Auseinandersetzung mit den alten Erinnerungen und mit ihrem schwierigen, geliebten Vater. Temperamentvoll und mit warmherzigem Humor erzählt Carole L. Glickfeld, die Autorin des Erfolgsromans Herzweh, von einer Familie im New York der fünfziger Jahre, vor allem aber von einer Beziehung zwischen Tochter und Vater, die trotz aller dramatischen Spannungen unauflöslich scheint.

        Interweaving myths in Shakespeare and his contemporaries

        by Janice Valls-Russell, Agnès Lafont, Charlotte Coffin

        This volume proposes new insights into the uses of classical mythology by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, focusing on interweaving processes in early modern appropriations of myth. Its 11 essays show how early modern writing intertwines diverse myths and plays with variant versions of individual myths that derive from multiple classical sources, as well as medieval, Tudor and early modern retellings and translations. Works discussed include poems and plays by William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe and others. Essays concentrate on specific plays including The Merchant of Venice and Dido Queen of Carthage, tracing interactions between myths, chronicles, the Bible and contemporary genres. Mythological figures are considered to demonstrate how the weaving together of sources deconstructs gendered representations. New meanings emerge from these readings, which open up methodological perspectives on multi-textuality, artistic appropriation and cultural hybridity.

        Politicising and gendering care for older people

        Multidisciplinary perspectives from Europe

        by Anca Dohotariu, Ana Paula Gil, Lubica Volanská

        This book offers a new critical framework for understanding the processes of politicising and gendering care for older people and their manifestations in several European contexts. It interrogates how care for older adults varies across time and place while searching for an in-depth comprehension of how it becomes an arena of political struggle and the object of public policy in different countries and at various societal and political levels. It brings together multidisciplinary contributions that examine the issue of care for older people as a political concern from many angles, such as problematising care needs, long-term care policies, home care services, institutional services and family care. The contributions reveal the diversity of situations in which the processes of politicising and gendering care for older adults overlap, contradict or reinforce each other while leading to increased gender (in)equalities on different levels.
