View Rights PortalBand 11 der Bonner Celan-Ausgabe versammelt sämtliche verstreut gedruckten Gedichte und erstmals vollständig die nachgelassenen Gedichte von 1948 bis 1963, dem Entstehungszeitraum der Gedichtbände Mohn und Gedächtnis bis Die Niemandsrose. Ediert werden damit nicht nur die ersten Gedichtveröffentlichungen Celans in Zeitschriften und so zentrale Gedichte wie Wolfsbohne oder Walliser Elegie, sondern auch alle Texte dieses Zeitraums, die den Status von abgeschlossenen Gedichten nicht erreicht haben: Bruchstücke und Ansätze, aber auch weiter gediehene betitelte und datierte Entwürfe, wie sie sich zahlreich in verschiedenen Konvoluten, in Notiz- und Tagebüchern, finden. Einen eigenständigen Abschnitt des Bandes bildet die Edition des Projekts Pariser Elegie, das Celan während der Arbeit an der Niemandsrose mehrere Jahre lang verfolgte und erst kurz vor Abschluß des Gedichtbandes aufgab. Die Entwicklung von Celans lyrischem Werk wird somit auf der Grundlage aller überlieferten Texte in einer bislang nicht gegebenen Breite anschaulich.
This book, the world's first biography of Paul Watzlawick, written by his great-niece, describes the life of this philosopher, therapist, and best-selling author. Paul Watzlawick had a talent for languages and he led an adventurous life, from his childhood in Villach to studying in Venice after the war, to analyst training under C. G. Jung in Zurich, an attempt at establishing himself in India and then in El Salvador as a therapist, and finally to the Mental Research Institute (MRI) in the United States, headed by Don D. Jackson, a venerable scientist. This marked the beginning of the second half of his life, his amazing career as a communication researcher, a pioneer of systemic therapy, a radical constructivist, and a great thinker regarding the divisions between East and West. With many letters, lectures, interviews, and statements from contemporary witnesses and family members, this book makes Paul Watzlawick accessible as a human being and as a spiritually inspired, leading 20th century thinker. It includes a variety of unpublished material from Watzlawick, and introduces a comprehensive and exciting picture of the scientist and cosmopolitan person, Paul Watzlawick. Target Group: For people interest in Paul Watzlawick, communication sciences, systemic therapy, and constructivism.
This collection tells the story of Thomas Becket's turbulent life, violent death and extraordinary posthumous acclaim in the words of his contemporaries. The only modern collection from the twelfth-century Lives of Thomas Becket in English and features all his major biographers, including many previously untranslated extracts. Providing both a valuable glimpse of the late twelfth-century world, and an insight into the minds of those who witnessed the events. By using contemporary sources, this book is the most accessible way to study this central episode in medieval history. Thomas Becket features prominently in most medieval core courses. This book allows the subject to be taught as never before, and is highly suitable as a set text.
As an instigator of debate and a defender of tradition, a man of letters and a popular hack, a writer of erotica and a spokesman for bishops, an urbane metropolitan and a celebrant of local custom, the various textual performances of Thomas Nashe have elicited, and continue to provoke, a range of contradictory reactions. Nashe's often incongruous authorial characteristics suggest that, as a 'King of Pages', he not only courted controversy but also deliberately cultivated a variety of public personae, acquiring a reputation more slippery than the herrings he celebrated in print. Collectively, the essays in this book illustrate how Nashe excelled at textual performance but his personae became a contested site as readers actively participated and engaged in the reception of Nashe's public image and his works.
