October 2017Ein gewisser Plume
by Henri Michaux, Kurt Leonhard
Der Dreh- und Angelpunkt dieser tollkühnen Textsammlung – ein gewisser »Plume« – ist ein Meister der absurden Welterfahrung. Tut ihm sein Finger weh, wird er ihm von einem eifrigen Chirurgen amputiert. Bestellt Plume in einem Restaurant ein Gericht, das nicht auf der Karte steht, wird er in einem kafkaesken Spektakel von Polizei und Geheimdienst gejagt. Eine Königin nötigt ihn so lange zum Liebesspiel, bis ihr Gemahl das Schlafgemach betritt. Und in einem Augenblick dummer Zerstreutheit läuft Plume »mit den Füßen über die Zimmerdecke, anstatt sie am Boden zu behalten. Als er dessen gewahr wurde, war es leider zu spät«. Henri Michaux, Reisender in wirklicher und imaginärer Fremde und Experimentator verborgener Bewusstseinsräume, hat mit der Gestalt des Plume eine prägnante wie tragische Spielfigur seiner eigenen Phantasie geschaffen. Die Prosatexte, Gedichte und Kurzdramen des vorliegenden Bandes offenbaren die Absurdität unhinterfragter Glaubenssätze und Verhaltenscodices. Zugleich kann Ein gewisser Plume auch als Hommage an alles Abseitige, Komische und Verquere gelesen werden. Michaux, der sich zunächst den Surrealisten nahe fühlte, widmete sich nach seinen ersten literarischen Publikationen verstärkt der Malerei und Experimenten mit Meskalin, über die er später viel beachtete Bücher schrieb. Als Künstler nahm er mehrmals an der Documenta teil, 1960 wurde ihm auf der Biennale von Venedig der Einaudi-Preis verliehen.

PsychologyACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
With ACT Questionnaires for Clinical Assessment, 100 Questions
by Paolo Moderato, Giovambattista Presti, Francesco dell’Orco
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a psychotherapeutic intervention based on experimental evidence. Its goal is to help people implement concrete behaviors in accordance with their values even in the presence of diffcult or interfering events. The authors clearly describe how ACT works and provide useful guidance for clinical practice. Soon the concepts of fusion and defusion become familiar and the Hexafex a way of thinking rather than appearing as a mere scheme. Acceptance and commitment replace refusal and renunciation: this is the innovative therapeutic challenge of ACT. This manual, enriched with metaphors and exercises that can be used in a therapeutic session, is intended for reading by specialists by tackling the themes of this approach with rigor and depth, taking the reader step by step into the heart of ACT. The appendix contains seven ACT questionnaires for clinical assessment.

Meurtre par la Cabale
by Nathan Erez et Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman
Meurtre par la Cabale Un Thriller ésotérique fondé sur les secrets de la cabale Nathan Erez et Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman Un thriller israélien qui associe deux éléments apparemment sans rapport l’un avec l’autre : une série de meurtres étranges et le déchiffrage d’anciens textes cabalistiques, avec leur sens caché et mystique. Un professeur de Jérusalem, expert dans le déchiffrage d’anciens manuscrits hébraïques, est chargé d’une mystérieuse mission, qui l’envoie sur trois continents. Il devient mêlé à une série de meurtres, qui le dépassent complètement. Mais il découvre rapidement que s’il ne parvient pas à déchiffrer les manuscrits énigmatiques à l’aide de ses connaissances de la cabale, beaucoup de vies, y compris celles des membres de sa propre famille, seront menacées. Entremêlés avec ce récit passionnant se trouvent de curieux passages rappelant les nombreuses conquêtes qu’a subies la ville de Jérusalem au cours de sa longue histoire ; leur connexion et leur signification ne se révéleront qu’à la fin du livre. Meurtre par la Cabale est une aventure passionnante et au rythme soutenu. Grâce à sa structure remarquable et son sujet captivant (la cabale), vous ne pourrez simplement pas le poser avant d'en connaître la fin. La solution surprenante de ce drame intègre des éléments cabalistiques et entoure le récit de magie, laissant le lecteur presque à bout de souffle. Ce livre a été écrit par Dorith Ginzburg-Silberman, en coopération avec le mystérieux cabaliste Nathan Erez, qui refuse obstinément de révéler son identité. Le Dr Silberman a écrit 17 livres jusqu’à ce jour, parmi lesquels une collection d'histoires courtes, des romans et deux livres pour enfants, ainsi que des recherches et des publications académiques. Le Dr. Silberman est conférencière de littérature dans les meilleures universités israéliennes et son travail lui a valu plusieurs prix. Elle a participé à de nombreux congrès internationaux. L’auteur est mère de trois enfants. L'édition italienne a été publiée en fin 2005 par Barbera Editore et a été chaleureusement acclamée par les médias ; celle en espagnol est sortie en mi- 2006, et l'édition portugaise en octobre 2006. L'édition tchèque est parue en Mars 2008.

by Ludwing Bemelmans
“If the world were a lemon and one were to tie a string around its middle, then that string would be what is called the Equator. It divides the world in half, and it is under the path of the sun. The bumps on the two ends of the lemon are the north pole and the south pole, both cold and icy. About where the knot of the string is, where it is warm the year round, is the land of Ecuador.”

The ArtsNovember 2011Real and Reel
The education of a film critic
by Brian McFarlane
From a little before ten years of age Brian McFarlane became addicted to stories told on the screen, and the mere fact that he had difficulty in getting to see the films he wanted - or any for that matter - only made them seem more alluring. But it wasn't just seeing the films that mattered: he also wanted, and quite soon needed, to be writing about them and these obsessions have been part of his life for the next sixty-odd years. Real and reel is a light-hearted and but deeply felt account of a lifetime's addiction. It is one particular writer and critic's story, but it will strike sparks among many others. Though many other interests have kept Brian McFarlane's life lively, nothing else has exerted such a long-standing grip on the author's imagination as film. Editor of the Encyclopaedia of British Cinema, co-editor of Manchester University Press's British Film Makers series, and author of over a dozen critical works on film and adaptation, Brian McFarlane's autobiographical Real and reel can also be read as a biography of the subject of Film Studies itself. ;

FictionOctober 2018Cat
by Wan Yan
“Cat” tells the story of editors, writers, poets, painters and other characters in the literary circle. There are editorial department, pen meeting, group draft, and writers’ emotional entanglements. With a profound metaphorical approach, through special literary narratives and humanity observations, the writer jumped out of the world to see the world's sharpness and calmness with the recording of cat's eyes. The ancient cats are metaphors of modernity, and the literary story code at the end of a century. A vain, wandering and shining performance, a kind of chaos of illusion and reality, life and death. An editor-in-chief named "Feng Niang" and a deputy editor-in-chief called "Old Deng" were intentionally or unintentionally involved in the whirlpool of the literary world. These emotional, ideal, earthly, spiritual, and life vortexes are mixed in literature.

A SUNDAY AFTERNOON IN KILINSKI PARK
by Arieh Stav
There were rumors; a smell of fear in the air. And yet, it all happened with incredible suddenness. The Soviets were abandoning the city; the Germans were at the gates. Mera Stollar grabbed her baby and ran for her life. From that day on, her life became an odyssey of flight and survival. Thanks to her son’s Aryan appearance (as long as he did not lower his pants…), her resourcefulness and wisdom, they escaped from the city after the murder of its Jewish inhabitants. Without documents, the mother and child wandered among the back lanes of Occupied Poland under the guise of Polish refugees, until they reached Warsaw. On the way, they endured the ever present fear of capture, hunger, cold, illness and the cruelty and indifference of people; but there are also instances of compassion and mercy. Their flight is accompanied by many dangers and threats. They are thrown into the street by a Christian family for having crossed themselves left-handed; a Ukrainian informer turns them in to the police – meaning transport to Treblinka; the convoy is bombed and on the first day of the Liberation, Mera is found guilty of collaborating with the German enemy, a sin carrying a sentence of execution. A SUNDAY AFTERNOON IN KILINSKI PARK also tells the stories of Rocheleh, thrown into prison over a pair of boots; Stiepan the Ukrainian policeman whose love for Vera does not prevent him from murdering her entire family; of Lieber, protected by his father’s corpse in the Susenki killing pits; Sonia the convert, who was not saved by the crucifix she wore on her throat; Granny Jadzia, the Pole who was prepared to sacrifice her life for Libi, whom she loved like a grandchild; Alex and Irena, the two Ukrainian circus artists who, ironically, come under Mera’s protection; and Rudolph, the German paratrooper whose courtship and love for Mera lead to disillusion. Arieh Stav was born in 1939 in Rovno, Poland at that time, Ukraine today. In 1951, he made aliyah with his mother. He was educated at Kibbutz Givat Haim, served in the IDF as a paratrooper and was a member of the Kibbutz until 1963, when he left and moved to Tel Aviv. He studied psychology, philosophy and drama at Tel Aviv University. Arieh Stav is the Director of the Ariel Center for Policy Research, a non-partisan organization devoted to inclusive research and discussion of political and strategic issues concerning Israel and the Jewish people. Stav is the editor of Nativ, a bi-monthly periodical on politics and the arts, author and editor of numerous books and research studies. He has translated (to Hebrew) and published numerous volumes of epic poems which were written throughout the ages and in a myriad of languages.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2008Every man in his humour
Ben Jonson
by Robert Miola
This edition breaks with the usual practice by presenting the 1601 quarto version of Ben Jonson's play, set in Florence, instead of the revised 1616 version, set in London. Robert S. Miola presents a meticulously edited and modernised version of the play as originally acted by the Lord Chamberlain's Men (with Shakespeare in the cast) in 1598. Miola explores the relevance of the Italian setting, particularly the potent, variegated, and fascinating body of myth and legend that constituted Italy for English audiences in 1598. The editor also illuminates the dramatic context of the play, while paying detailed attention to the social, political, and religious contexts. ;
