      • Babel-Bridge Literary Agency

        Babel-Bridge specialises in translation rights representation world-wide on behalf of publishing houses and agencies.   At Babel-Bridge, every single book is carefully selected for its potential ability to travel, be it for its universal theme, its commercial hook or stunning artwork, or indeed all three.   Babel-Bridge represents mainly books from the Nordics and the UK, but we wish to grow the portfolio to include beautiful books that tick the aforementioned boxes from other corners of the world. To that end, Babel-Bridge will rely on close collaboration with subagents, who are strongly placed to identify the books that are most likely to travel, but where the rights holder lacks the network abroad.

        Die Psychologie der Lebensspanne

        by Lawrence Kohlberg, Detlef Garz, Wolfgang Althof, Detlef Garz, Detlef Garz, Wolfgang Althof

        "Nach dem erfolgreichen Band Die Psychologie der Moralentwicklungfolgt Kohlberg in Die Psychologie der Lebensspanne der zentralen Idee, den Menschen auf seinen verschiedenen Entwicklungsstufen als »Philosophen« zu sehen: Philosoph zu sein bedeutet, sich mit der sozialen und physischen Welt zu konfrontieren, sie zu konstruieren und sich in dieser Auseinandersetzung zu entwickeln. Dabei wird »Entwicklung« - anders als im übrigen Werk Kohlbergs - nicht auf den Bereich der Moral eingegrenzt, sondern in einem umfassenderen Sinn verstanden. Die Bildung des Selbst, verbunden mit den jeweiligen altersspezifischen Problemen und Krisen, steht darum im Mittelpunkt der Untersuchungen: die Überwindung des kindlichen Egozentrismus; die Identitätsbildung in der Adoleszenz u.a. Diese Etappen werden entwicklungspsychologisch systematisiert und im Zusammenhang zentraler Bezugstheorien von Erikson, Piaget, Marcia, Gilligan, Perry und Fowler reflektiert."

        4 saints in 3 acts

        A snapshot of the American avant-garde in the 1930s

        by Patricia Allmer, John Sears

        Four Saints in Three Acts by Gertrude Stein and Virgil Thomson was a major avant-garde phenomenon of the 1930s, an experimental opera that nonetheless achieved remarkable popular success. Photography was a key element of that success, but its complex roles in the construction, representation and dissemination of the opera have hitherto received little critical attention. The photographic recording of the all-African American cast in particular affords a unique insight into the complexities of Four Saints in relation to the Harlem Renaissance and the New York avant-gardes of the time. This book, published in collaboration with The Photographers' Gallery, London, presents a wide selection of photographs of the cast, performances, and other material - many images reproduced for the first time - alongside essays by an international range of scholars exploring different aspects of the opera, including dance, fashion, music, and avant-garde writing, as well as photography.

        Das Atelier im Grünen. Henri Matisse - Die Jahre in Issy

        by Peter Kropmanns

        1909 hatte Henri Matisse den Trubel in Paris satt und zog nach Issy-les-Moulineaux – gerade mal sechs Kilometer entfernt von der Hauptstadt. Dem rechteckigen, zweigeschossigen Anwesen, das zum neuen Zentrum seines Lebens werden sollte, schloß sich ein kleiner Park an, in dem Matisse sein „Atelier im Grünen“ einrichtete. In Issy empfing er seine Künstlerfreunde und Galeristen, hier entstanden weltberühmte Werke wie „Der Tanz“ oder „Das rote Atelier“. Der Kunsthistoriker Peter Kropmanns erzählt mit profundem Detailwissen von dem alles verändernden Ortswechsel des Malers; der Band enthält zusätzlich historische Fotografien aus Issy und Reproduktionen zahlreicher Matisse-Werke aus dieser Zeit: Ein wunderbares Geschenk für Kunst- und Gartenfreunde!

        Brexit and citizens’ rights

        History, policy and experience

        by Djordje Sredanovic, Bridget Byrne

        The book offers interdisciplinary analyses of the impact of Brexit on the rights of EU27 citizens in the UK, Britons in the UK and the EU, and third-country nationals. It combines a historical examination of citizenship and migration between the UK, Europe and the Commonwealth with the analysis of policies and of the experiences of the different groups impacted by Brexit. The book discusses Brexit within the larger history and dynamics of UK and EU citizenship and migration. The individual chapters look at how Brexit is transforming the citizenship rights of different groups, including issues of loss of citizenship and experiences of naturalisation. They further examine the fears of the groups impacted, and larger issues of belonging, marginalisation, political orientations and mobilisations that cross legal status, nationality, ethnicity, race and class.
