        Gedichte und kleine Dramen

        by Hugo Hofmannsthal

        Hofmannsthals Gedichte und kleine Dramen sind in dieser Zusammenstellung zum ersten Male 1911 bei der Insel in Leipzig erschienen. Lange Zeit haben gerade sie den eigentlichen Ruhm des Dichters ausgemacht. Hofmannsthal zeigt sich in ihnen proteisch wandelbar und legt doch gleichzeitig in seinem Frühwerk den Keim zu fast allem, was er in den 30 Jahren danach noch geschrieben hat.

        Sinnesschwellen

        Studien zur Phänomenologie des Fremden 3

        by Bernhard Waldenfels

        "In diesem Band sind es die Schwellen der Sinne, an denen die Erfahrung des Fremden sich abspielt. Streifzüge durch die Welt der Sinne und die entsprechenden Bereiche von Kunst und Technik verdichten sich zu folgenden Themen: biologisch vorgeprägter, musikalisch ausgestalteter Rhythmus der Sinne, der uns an die Schwelle von Sinn- und Formbildung versetzt; Ordnung des Sichtbaren in der Malerei, die einem »sehenden Sehen« (Max Imdahl) entstammt; Beunruhigungen des Blicks, die vom Bild ausgehen; ein Anderssehen, das den Keim bildet für eine Geschichte des Auges; die Lebenswelt als Hörwelt, in der die Grenzen zwischen Klang, Ton und Geräusch fließend sind; eine Architektur am Leitfaden des Leibes, die uns in der Welt wohnen, aber nie völlig heimisch werden läßt."

        Geschichten von Shem und Shaun. Tales Told of Shem and Shaun

        by James Joyce, Friedhelm Rathjen, Friedhelm Rathjen

        Lange vor der Veröffentlichung von »Finnegans Wake« (1939) wurden bereits einige Teile daraus separat in Buchform veröffentlicht – darunter nicht nur das berühmte Kapitel »Anna Livia Plurabelle« (1928), sondern auch »Tales Told of Shem and Shaun« (1929). Der Keim der Entstehung dieser drei Geschichten liegt in einer Fehde zwischen den Schriftstellern James Joyce und Wyndham Lewis, die sich bei gemeinsamen Zechtouren durch Paris kennengelernt hatten. Joyce beantwortet eine heftige Attacke Lewis’ auf den »Ulysses« (»ein Monument wie ein Rekorddurchfall«) und auf das entstehende »Finnegans Wake« (»Kinderspielchen à la Gertrude Stein«). Es gibt in »Finnegans Wake« bekanntlich keinen ›eigentlich gemeinten‹ Sinn, sondern ein Geflecht aus vielen fragmentarischen Sinnebenen, die sich gegenseitig ergänzen, durchdringen und auch aufheben; eben dies ist die besondere Qualität des Buches. Ziel des Übersetzers Friedhelm Rathjen war es, so viele der im Original vorhandenen Bedeutungen wie irgend möglich wiederzugeben, und zwar in eben der Abfolge und Verschränkung, in der sie im Original erschienen: »›Finnegans Wake‹ ist ein kühnes Buch für kühne Leser, und das Amt des Übersetzers kann es nur sein, dafür zu sorgen, daß beide zusammenfinden.«

        May the Loveforce Be With You

        Kali-Ki Reiki: Healing Through Divine Mother & Yogic Wisdom

        by Rajashree Maa

        May the Loveforce Be With introduces a new lineage in energy healing, Kali-Ki ReikiTM, that was revealed to the author, Joni Dittrich, Ph.D. (Rajashree Maa), in a series of mystical encounters with the Divine Mother appearing as the goddess Kali Maa. The book brilliantly tells the stories of these encounters and presents the healing symbols that She revealed, explaining how these symbols can be used both for mind-body healing and spiritual awakening, or what Rajashree Maa calls "wisening." While traditional reiki systems also use symbols to transmit healing energy, the symbols introduced in Kali-Ki Reiki are seen as unique, three-dimensional, active, intelligent forms of light that tap into certain universal energy frequencies that are particularly attuned to the evolving conscious awareness as well as the personal and societal dilemmas of our current times. The fact that these symbols were revealed by Divine Mother to a woman in this era points to a need in today's world to re-establish our connection with the feminine forces of nature and spirit. The healing energy transmitted through these symbols is called Loveforce, which is considered to be the manifesting, creative, and healing power of the Limitless Love that is the Source of all that is.

        Impressionen und Landschaften

        by Federico García Lorca, Martin Koppenfels, Peter Kultzen, Susanne Lange, Martin Koppenfels

        Reiseskizzen, hochfliegende stilistische Fingerübungen und erste Landschaften der Seele - dieses Prosabuch, das Lorca mit 19 Jahren veröffentlichte, vermittelt ein lebendiges, facettenreiches Bild des Dichters aus Andalusien. Zwar trägt es alle Merkmale eines Frühwerks: überschwenglichkeit, Wortkaskaden über magerer Erfahrung, melancholischer Größenwahn. Doch haben diese Prosaskizzen ebenso den Charme des ersten Blicks und der drallen übertreibung. Ihre Einmaligkeit rührt daher, daß es schillernde Zwittertexte sind, in denen Lorca um eine Ausdrucksform ringt. Im Keim ist hier das folgende Werk bereits angelegt, das nach diesem ersten Auftritt seine eigentliche Bahn in der Lyrik und dem Drama findet. Für die kleinsten, scheinbar unwesentlichen Dinge scheint Lorca geradezu das absolute Gehör zu haben. Der Dichter ist der Professor seiner Sinne, dieser Satz aus seinem Góngora-Essay trifft in den Landschaftsskizzen im besten Sinne auf ihn selbst zu, der hier Landschaften und Städte nicht zu simplen Bildern einfriert, sondern vibrieren läßt im genauen Wissen um ihre vielbödige Dimension. Und darin ist er eben mehr als nur ein subjektiv raunender Beschwörer, der mit dem Reichtum seiner Sprache wuchert. Hinter der nur scheinbaren Bekenntnishaftigkeit seines Sprechens steht die Kenntnis, die den Leser zum Mit-Sehen und zum Mit-Schwingen verführt, schrieb Ute Stempel 1986, anläßlich seines 50. Todestages, über Lorcas erste Veröffentlichung.

        Using Essential Oils with Angels

        by Joni Keim

        Angels & Aromas celebrates the association of angels and aromas. The best-known angelic aroma, detected upon an angel’s arrival and departure, has been described as something close to rose...an exquisitely beautiful floral aroma...complex, sweet, and rich. There are also accounts of other types of aromas, such as earthy, light, or bright. This guide explores the natural aromas from essential oils that can be used in association with angels as a representation and affirmation of the angels’ responsibilities and characteristics. You do not need an aroma to be in the presence of angels. Angels will be with you at any time and any place. But if you enjoy the beautiful and enticing aromas of essential oils, they work wonderfully to enhance your encounters and experiences with the angelic realm.
