        Einundzwanzig Sonette

        Englisch und deutsch

        by William Shakespeare, Paul Celan

        William Shakespeare wurde vermutlich am 23. April 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon geboren. Seine schöpferische Sprachkraft und die meisterhafte psychologische Gestaltung seiner Charaktere begründen seine Bedeutung und seinen Ruhm als Dramatiker und Dichter. Werke wie König Johann, Ein Sommernachtstraum, Der Kaufmann von Venedig, oder seine Tragödien Hamlet, Romeo und Julia, Othello oder König Lear markieren Höhepunkte der Weltliteratur und sind von den großen internationalen Bühnen nicht mehr wegzudenken. William Shakespeare verstarb am 23. April 1616 in Stratford-upon-Avon. Paul Celan wurde am 23. November 1920 als Paul Antschel als einziger Sohn deutschsprachiger, jüdischer Eltern im damals rumänischen Czernowitz geboren. Nach dem Abitur 1938 begann er ein Medizinstudium in Tours/Frankreich, kehrte jedoch ein Jahr später nach Rumänien, zurück, um dort Romanistik zu studieren. 1942 wurden Celans Eltern deportiert. Im Herbst desselben Jahres starb sein Vater in einem Lager an Typhus, seine Mutter wurde erschossen. Von 1942 bis 1944 musste Celan in verschiedenen rumänischen Arbeitslagern Zwangsarbeit leisten. Von 1945 bis 1947 arbeitete er als Lektor und Übersetzer in Bukarest, erste Gedichte wurden publiziert. Im Juli 1948 zog er nach Paris, wo er bis zu seinem Tod lebte. Im selben Jahr begegnete Celan Ingeborg Bachmann. Dass Ingeborg Bachmann und Paul Celan Ende der vierziger Jahre und Anfang der fünfziger Jahre ein Liebesverhältnis verband, das im Oktober 1957 bis Mai 1958 wieder aufgenommen wurde, wird durch den posthum veröffentlichten Briefwechsel Herzzeit zwischen den beiden bestätigt. Im November 1951 lernte Celan in Paris die Künstlerin Gisèle de Lestrange kennen, die er ein Jahr später heiratete. 1955 kam ihr gemeinsamer Sohn Eric zur Welt. Im Frühjahr 1970 nahm sich Celan in der Seine das Leben.

        Bovine Tuberculosis

        by Mark Chambers, Stephen Gordon, Francisco Olea-Popelka, Paul Barrow

        This book is contemporary, topical and global in its approach, and provides an essential, comprehensive treatise on bovine tuberculosis and the bacterium that causes it, Mycobacterium bovis. Bovine tuberculosis remains a major cause of economic loss in cattle industries worldwide, exacerbated in some countries by the presence of a substantial wildlife reservoir. It is a major zoonosis, causing human infection through consumption of unpasteurised milk or by close contact with infected animals. Following a systematic approach, expert international authors cover epidemiology and the global situation; microbial virulence and pathogenesis; host responses to the pathogen; and diagnosis and control of the disease. Aimed at researchers and practising veterinarians, this book is essential for those needing comprehensive information on the pathogen and disease, and offers a summary of key information learned from human tuberculosis research. It will be useful to those studying the infection and for those responsible for controlling the disease.

        Forests and Landscapes

        Linking Ecology, Sustainability and Aesthetics

        by Edited by Eric Wajnberg, John K Scott, Paul C Quimby

        Forests are an important component in the visual appeal of landscapes. There is an increasing recognition of the importance of this subject among foresters and environmental scientists. Increasingly, forest resource managers must consider both the aesthetic consequences of timber harvesting operations and management plans and public perceptions of the sustainability of forest eco-system management.Written by world class authorities this book is the first to address this subject area. It consists of 17 chapters and is divided into six parts. The interdisciplinary nature of the book brings together not only foresters and ecologists, but also landscape architects, psychologists and philosophers. Contributors are leading research workers in their subjects, from Canada, the USA and UK.

        Evaluating Indirect Ecological Effects of Biological Control

        by Edited by Eric Wajnberg, John K Scott, Paul C Quimby

        A major concern for biological control has always been the risk of indirect unwanted effects on the ecology of other organisms. Our understanding of the ecological and evolutionary processes underlying these effects has until now been limited and experimental methods sometimes lacking. This book presents the key papers from of the first International Organisation for Biological Control global symposium, held in Montpellier, France, in October 1999. It addresses the issues and concerns involved in biological control, and assesses the current status of evaluation of the ecological effects.

        A Biography of Paul Watzlawick

        The Discovery of the Present Moment

        by Andrea Köhler-Ludescher

        This book, the world's first biography of Paul Watzlawick, written by his great-niece, describes the life of this philosopher, therapist, and best-selling author. Paul Watzlawick had a talent for languages and he led an adventurous life, from his childhood in Villach to studying in Venice after the war, to analyst training under C. G. Jung in Zurich, an attempt at establishing himself in India and then in El Salvador as a therapist, and finally to the Mental Research Institute (MRI) in the United States, headed by Don D. Jackson, a venerable scientist. This marked the beginning of the second half of his life, his amazing career as a communication researcher, a pioneer of systemic therapy, a radical constructivist, and a great thinker regarding the divisions between East and West. With many letters, lectures, interviews, and statements from contemporary witnesses and family members, this book makes Paul Watzlawick accessible as a human being and as a spiritually inspired, leading 20th century thinker. It includes a variety of unpublished material from Watzlawick, and introduces a comprehensive and exciting picture of the scientist and cosmopolitan person, Paul Watzlawick.   Target Group: For people interest in Paul Watzlawick, communication sciences, systemic therapy, and constructivism.

        Ireland and the European Union

        Economic, political and social crises

        by Michael Holmes, Kathryn Simpson, Dimitris Papadimitriou, Kathryn Simpson, Paul Tobin

        This book examines how Ireland's relationship with the EU was affected by a succession of crises in both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The financial crisis, the Brexit crisis and the migration crisis were not of equal significance on the island of Ireland. The financial crisis was a huge issue for the Republic but not Northern Ireland, Brexit had a major impact in both polities, the migration and populism issues were less controversial, while foreign policy challenges had a minimal impact. The book provides a summary of the main features of each of the crises to be considered, from both the EU and the Irish perspective. Ireland and the European Union is the first volume of its kind to provide a comprehensive analysis on British-Irish relations in the context of Brexit. It assesses the Withdrawal Agreement and Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, the devolution settlement and the 1998 Agreement, as well as the European dimension to Northern Ireland's peace process. The contributors explore a number of policy areas that are central to the understanding of each of the crises and the impact of each for Ireland. Chapters examine issues such as security, migration and taxation as well as protest politics, political parties, the media, public opinion and the economic impact of each of these crises on Ireland's relationship with the EU.
