ENRIQUE MELAKA
by Abdul Latip Talib, Nor Azmi
Enrique from Malacca is a man of Malay descent who participated in Ferdinand Magellan's voyage around the world. Enrique became a slave of the Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan in 1511 at the age of 14 when the Portuguese colonized Malacca. Enrique is documented to have traveled with Magellan from Malacca to Cebu in two segments, namely from Malacca to Portugal in 1511, and from Spain to Cebu from 1519 to 1521. Enrique's name is recorded in the list of names of the main crew in the voyage to the Moluccas led by Magellan, which is Trinidad.Some historians argue that it is possible that Enrique was the first person to circumnavigate the globe and return to his starting point. However, there are no records or sources to confirm this. Is it true that Enrique was the first Malay to circumnavigate the world?

April 2024Tore wie gemalt
by Javier Cáceres
Seit Jahren interviewt Javier Cáceres die bedeutendsten Fußballer der Welt. Eines Abends kam ihm die Idee, seinem Gegenüber einen Notizblock und einen Stift in die Hand zu drücken und ihn zu bitten, sein bestes, wichtigstes oder spektakulärstes Tor zu zeichnen. Entstanden ist eine einzigartige Sammlung von über 100 Zeichnungen, die nicht nur der alten Reporterfloskel »ein Tor wie gemalt« eine völlig neue Bedeutung verleihen, sondern auch eine andere Art Fußballgeschichte schreiben. Von Beckenbauer bis Pelé, von Kai Havertz bis Emerson – hinter jedem ihrer Tore steckt ein Moment des Stolzes und ewigen Ruhms, eine Erinnerung, die unauslöschlich ist. Wieso sie sich jeweils für das eine entschieden haben, erläutern sie in kurzen Texten. Jede Zeichnung eine Gelegenheit, sich zu erinnern, zu diskutieren oder sogar das eine oder andere Tor nachzuspielen.

August 2009Landschaftszeichnungen
by Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Javier Arnaldo, Hermann Mildenberger, Klassik Stiftung Weimar
Herausgegeben, im Auftrag der Klassik Stiftung Weimar, von Javier Arnaldo und Hermann Mildenberger. Die Klassik Stiftung Weimar besitzt einen einmaligen Bestand von eigenhändigen Zeichnungen Goethes – ein Schatz, der nach aufwendiger Restaurierung erstmals wieder in der Öffentlichkeit gezeigt wird: Im Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid wird von Ende Januar bis Ende April 2008 eine repräsentative Auswahl von über 70 Landschaftszeichnungen ausgestellt. Das Buch zu dieser Ausstellung enthält alle ausgestellten Bilder und erscheint parallel auf deutsch im Insel Verlag. Im historischen Teil seiner Farbenlehre kommt Goethe auch – in einer "Konfession des Verfassers" – auf sich selbst zu sprechen: "Ich war in einsamen Stunden früherer Zeit auf die Natur aufmerksam geworden, wie sie sich als Landschaft zeigt, und hatte, da ich von Kindheit auf in den Werkstätten der Maler aus und ein ging, Versuche gemacht, das, was mir in der Wirklichkeit erschien, so gut es sich schicken wollte, in ein Bild zu verwandeln; ja ich fühlte hiezu, wozu ich eigentlich keine Anlage hatte, einen weit größern Trieb als zu demjenigen, was mir von Natur leicht und bequem war." Das zeichnerische Werk Goethes steht also zumindest zeitweise mit im Zentrum von Goethes Schaffen. Essays von Javier Arnaldo, Werner Hofmann, Petra Maisak, Margarete Oppel und anderen vertiefen den Eindruck, den Goethes Landschaften hinterlassen, und stellen sie in ihren lebens- und werkgeschichtlichen Kontext.

Children's & YAJanuary 2015Hatless
by Lateefa Buti / Illustrated by Doha Al Khteeb
Kuwaiti children’s book author Lateefa Buti’s well-crafted and beautifully illustrated children’s book, Hatless, encourages children (ages 6-9) to think independently and challenge rigid traditions and fixed rituals with innovation and creativity. The main character is a young girl named Hatless who lives in the City of Hats. Here, all of the people are born with hats that cover their heads and faces. The world inside of their hats is dark, silent, and odorless. Hatless feels trapped underneath her own hat. She wants to take off her hat, but she is afraid, until she realizes that whatever frightening things exist in the world around her are there whether or not she takes off her hat to see them. So Hatless removes her hat. As Hatless takes in the beauty of her surroundings, she cannot help but talk about what she sees, hears, and smells. The other inhabitants of the city ostracize her because she has become different from them. It is not long before they ask her to leave the City of Hats. Rather than giving up or getting angry, Hatless feels sad for her friends and neighbors who are afraid to experience the world outside of their hats. She comes up with an ingenious solution: if given another chance, she will wear a hat as long it is one she makes herself. The people of the City of Hats agree, so Hatless weaves a hat that covers her head and face but does not prevent her from seeing the outside world. She offers to loan the hat to the other inhabitants of the city. One by one, they try it on and are enchanted by the beautiful world around them. Since then, no child has been born wearing a hat. The people celebrate by tossing their old hats in the air. By bravely embracing these values, Hatless improves her own life and the lives of her fellow citizens. Buti’s language is eloquent and clear. She strikes a skilled narrative balance between revealing Hatless’s inner thoughts and letting the story unfold through her interactions with other characters. Careful descriptions are accompanied by beautiful illustrations that reward multiple readings of the book.

In Doing Good Deeds
by Written by Fan Luming, Illustrated by Xia Xinxin
In Doing Good Deeds: Chinese Stories from Famous Paintings is set against the backdrop of Wang Ximeng's masterpiece "A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains" of the Northern Song dynasty. Adapted from the traditional folk tale "Fan Dan Asks the Buddha," it follows Fan Dan's journey to change his own impoverished fate by seeking out immortals in the deep mountains. Along the way, he meets a ministry councillor wishing for his mute daughter to speak, a tortoise longing to be a dragon, and a landlord aspiring to become a deity, all seeking answers about their destinies from the immortal. As Fan Dan meets the immortals and inquires about others' fates, he cannot inquire about his own. On his journey back, each person realizes their good fortune, offering Fan Dan generous rewards in return. The story embodies the simple wisdom of ancient Chinese people, allowing children to immerse themselves in traditional Chinese culture and appreciate the magnificence of nature, the wisdom of humanity, and the depth of art.

Insecticide & herbicide technologyAugust 1996Illustrations of Quarantine Pests for Europe
by Edited by I M Smith, Anne S Roy
This book is a companion volume to Quarantine Pests for Europe, published originally in 1992 by the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) and CAB INTERNATIONAL (CABI) for the European Union. The previous book provides information on identity, hosts, geographical distribution, biology, detection and identification, means of movement and dispersal, pest significance, phytosanitary measures and a bibliography for all the quarantine pests listed by EPPO and the European Union, but does not contain any illustrations. A second edition of Quarantine Pests for Europe will be published at the end of 1996. The present book contains approximately 400 colour illustrations, most of them new in relation to the very first illustrations of the EPPO Data Sheets which appeared in Bulletin OEPP/EPPO Bulletin in the 1980s. The book covers most of the quarantine pests listed by EPPO and the European Union, including those which have been added to the quarantine lists since 1992. Thus it will be compatible with the second edition of the volume of text data sheets. The quarantine pests concerned are either not present in the Euro-Mediterranean region, or only present to a limited extent and submitted to official control measures. The sequence of presentation is as for the text volume, i.e. insects, nematodes, fungi, bacteria, viruses, parasitic plants. Within each chapter, the pest illustrations appear in alphabetical order. An index including scientific names and synonyms is included at the end of the book. Accompanying text is presented in both English and French. Although it has not been possible to illustrate every listed quarantine pest, this book provides a unique collection that will help phytosanitary inspectors, plant health officers, and others working in the field of plant quarantine, or plant protection in general, to recognize and identify quarantine pests. The book is published by EPPO in association with CABI, and is available for sale exclusively through CABI.
