        Bertrand Blier

        by Sue Harris

        The most complete study of Blier's work to date, Harris traces the director's career from the early 1960s until the present. Outlines the forms, themes and style which dominate in Blier's work, and challenges the many labels that have been used to describe both the corpus of films and the man himself. Provides an original and controversial discussion of Blier's alleged 'misogyny', and invites the reader to understand the scatological and corporeal aspects of Blier's filmmaking in terms of long-established traditions of popular dramatic culture. Brings to light the comic mechanisms underpinning Blier's films and identifies strategies which navigate through one of the most entertaining and disconcerting bodies of work of recent years. The first book on Blier published in English.

        Men, ideas and tanks

        British military thought and armoured forces, 1903?39

        by J. P. Harris

        Men, ideas and tanks reviews the development of British military ideas on armoured forces from 1903 to 1939. Great Britain was the nation which first developed the tank, first used it in action and first gained dramatic results by employment. The British continued to be world leaders in the field of mechanised warfare until the early 1930s. J. P. Harris offers strikingly new interpretations of the early history of British armoured forces and explains why Great Britain had lost the lead by the outbreak of the Second World War. Available in paperback once more, this work will be of interest to all those concerned with British military history in the first half of the twentieth century, with the history of mechanised warfare and with the history of military thought. ;

        Das Dubliner Tagebuch des Stanislaus Joyce

        by Stanislaus Joyce, George Harris Healey, Arno Schmidt

        Stanislaus Joyce hat Tagebücher hinterlassen, von denen einige, aus der Zeit vom Herbst 1903 bis zum April 1905, hier vorliegen. Sie ergänzen das uns aus »Meines Bruders Hüter« (st273) bekannte Bild der Familie Joyce und ihrer Freunde, geben ehrlichen, oft mürrischen, häufig haßerfüllten Einblick in deren elendes Alltagsleben und zeigen schon in diesen frühen Jahren die Mischung aus Bewunderung und Verachtung, die für das Verhältnis von Stanislaus zu James lebenslänglich entscheidend gewesen ist. James pflegte diese Aufzeichnungen zu lesen und hat sie bisweilen für seine Werke ebenso ausgenutzt wie Stanislaus später für sein Erinnerungsbuch. Niemand wird in diesen Tagebüchern so häufig erwähnt wie der Bruder James, und so enthalten sie wichtige Aufschlüsse über die Jahre, in denen dieser an »Kammermusik«, »Stephen der Held«, »Ein Porträt des Künstlers als junger Mann« arbeitete. Wieviel Wirklichkeit in die Werke von James eingegangen ist, wird erst sichtbar durch die zahlreichen Anmerkungen, die der Übersetzer Arno Schmidt für den deutschen Leser beigesteuert hat.

        If Sam can ever finish raking the autumn leaves, he'll get to play with his friends. But more leaves just keep falling! Argh! It’s no help that he's distracted by how many fall at once or what shapes and colours they have either... or will Sam's once bitter chore turn into the playtime he wished for?
