Christine Heimannsberg
Gelobtes Land, die dystopische Climate Fiction Trilogie: Mit CO2 verbindet man den Klimawandel, schmelzende Gletscher und Überflutungen. Mittlerweile ist der Klimawandel auch in der Literatur angekommen. „Climate Fiction“ oder „Cli-fi“ lautet das Stichwort, das zuletzt verstärkt in den Feuilletons auftauchte. Die deutsche Autorin Christine Heimannsberg präsentiert mit ihrer Debüt-Trilogie „Gelobtes Land“ eine ungewöhnliche, spannende Dystopie, die ökologische wie humanistische Themen geschickt im neuen Genre zusammenführt.

March 2021Columbus, the Discarded Explorer
Disaster of the legendary sailor
by Wolfgang Wissler
There he stands, the man the whole of Spain cheered, before whom the most catholic regents Isabella and Ferdinand rose to their feet, his eyes on his ship Capitana, devoured by shipworm, stranded off Jamaica. Some of the crew mutiny, the locals can no longer be fobbed off with glass beads, the Spanish on the nearby island of Hispaniola do not help, the world doesn‘t want anything to do with him, the demanding whinger. He, Christopher Columbus, is a John Lackland, a king without land, a conqueror without conquest. Between fiction and historical truth, Wolfgang Wissler recounts the legendary sailor‘s last expedition in an entirely new way – and what a story it is!

The ArtsApril 2011Roy Ward Baker
by Geoff Mayer, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard
This book traces the career of Roy Ward Baker, one of the great survivors of the British film and television industry. He directed the landmark British film Morning Departure (1949), worked at Twentieth Century Fox in Hollywood in the early 1950s where he directed Marilyn Monroe's 'breakthrough' film (Don't Bother to Knock), and followed this with a succession of fine films for Rank, culminating in the best version of the Titanic disaster, A Night to Remember in 1958. Yet within three years he was unable to secure a job in the British film industry and he moved to television series such as The Avengers, The Saint and Minder. Later Baker re-emerged as a major director of science-fiction (Quatermass and the Pit) and horror films (Asylum). Geoff Mayer provides an industrial and aesthetic context in which to understand the interrelationship between a skilled classical director and the transformation of the British film industry in the 1950s. ;

March 2005Die Schiller-Chronik
by Karin Wais, Rose Unterberger
Die Schiller-Chronik ist ein praktisches Hilfsmittel für jeden Schiller-Leser. Wer etwa wissen will, wo sich Schiller zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt aufhielt, oder in umgekehrter Richtung fragt, wann er seiner zukünftigen Frau zum ersten Mal begegnete oder wann Die Räuber in Hamburg aufgeführt wurden – die Schiller-Chronik erteilt zuverlässig Auskunft und lädt zum Blättern und Eintauchen in seine Welt ein. übersichtlich gegliedert in parallele Rubriken zu Ort und Zeit – Leben – Werk, enthält die Chronik alle wichtigen Daten zur Lebens- und Werkgeschichte, dazu auch Angaben zum Zeitgeschehen und zu Publikationen der Zeitgenossen. Durch die synoptische Darstellung werden die Entstehungszusammenhänge von Schillers Œuvre unmittelbar deutlich, wobei nicht nur die ausgereiften, kanonischen Texte Berücksichtigung finden, sondern auch Pläne, Gelegenheitsgedichte und verschiedene Fassungen, etwa die einzelnen Bühnenbearbeitungen seiner Dramen. Ein erklärendes Personenregister sowie ein Orts- und ein Werkregister vervollständigen den Band und machen ihn zu einem unentbehrlichen Nachschlagewerk.

Fisheries & related industriesJune 2005Urban Aquaculture
by Edited by Barry A Costa-Pierce, Alan Desbonnet, Peter Edwards, Dale Baker
Fishery products are the world's most important source of animal protein, especially for the poor. Meeting the basic human needs for protein foods in the future will be a difficult challenge, especially as demand for fish has doubled since the 1950s. Realistically we can not expect to catch more food from the sea, so we must now turn to farming the waters, not just hunting them. The new challenge for planners is to accelerate aquaculture development and to plan for new production. As millions of people are moving from rural, inland areas to coastal cities we need to make urban areas not only centres of marketing and distribution, but also of production, particularly using recycled urban wastewater. This book on urban aquaculture includes papers from authors in the USA, Europe and Asia that review these emerging issues from the perspective of both developed and developing countries.
