April 2007Über-Empfindlichkeit
Spielformen der Idiosynkrasie
by Silvia Bovenschen
Manchmal sind es die unwichtigsten Kleinigkeiten des Alltags, gegen die man eine heftige Abneigung entwickelt – seien es die Haut auf der Milch, Männer in Sandalen oder das Quietschen von Kreide auf der Schultafel. Jeder kennt solche skurrilen, absurden Abneigungen, jeder hat seine eigenen unerklärlichen Überempfindlichkeiten. Silvia Bovenschen nähert sich diesem Phänomen aus den verschiedensten Richtungen: Sie grenzt es vom Ekel wie vom Schmerz ab, stellt Überlegungen an über die Beziehungen zwischen Idiosynkrasie und Flucht beim Zigarettenholen und versucht ein Porträt des Schweizers als Verbrecher. Auf diese Weise ist ein aufregendes, vergnügliches und kluges Buch über eine unserer so wichtigen Unwichtigkeiten des täglichen Lebens entstanden. »Silvia Bovenschen macht uns die Freude, mit ihrem versiert und kenntnisreich geschriebenen Buch ein unterschätztes Empfindungsphänomen zu erschließen.« Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung »Über-Empfindlichkeit gehört zu der kleinen Familie der Bücher, aus denen man vorlesen möchte, anstatt über sie Bericht zu erstatten. « Die Zeit Silvia Bovenschen studierte Literaturwissenschaft, Soziologie und Philosophie und lebt als freie Publizistin in Berlin. 2000 erhielt sie den Heinrich-Merck-Preis für Essayistik. Im Suhrkamp Verlag liegt von ihr Die imaginierte Weiblichkeit (es 2431) vor. Zuletzt erschien Älter werden (2006).

Art: general interest (Children's/YA)Títeres trashumantes (Transhumant puppets)
by Mario Martín del Campo, Silvia Eugenia Castillero
In the stretch of emptyness where no one dwells, changing beings are born as drops, as enigmas, as suspension points... They take a little bit of light and then steal shade from darkness. Thus these puppets grow strong, stealthy, and alive in the multiple sceneries of their theatre.

Humanities & Social SciencesMay 2020A history of humanitarianism, 1755–1989
In the name of others
by Silvia Salvatici
The book traces the history of international humanitarianism from the anti-slavery movement to the end of the cold war. It is based on an extensive survey of the international literature and is retold in an original narrative that relies on a close examination of the sources. The reconstruction of humanitarianism's long history unfolds around some crucial moments and events: the colonial expansion of European countries, the two world wars and their aftermaths, the emergence of a new postcolonial order. In terms of its contents, narrative style, interpretative approach the book is aimed at a large and diverse public including: scholars who are studying and teaching humanitarianism; students who need to learn about humanitarianism as part of their training or research; operators and volunteers who are engaged in the field; non-specialist readers who are interested in the topic because of its relevance to current events.
