      Dark Tourism and Pilgrimage

      by Daniel H Olsen, Maximiliano E Korstanje

      In recent years there has been a growth in both the practice and research of dark tourism; the phenomenon of visiting sites of tragedy or disaster. Expanding on this trend, this book examines dark tourism through the new lens of pilgrimage. It focuses on dark tourism sites as pilgrimage destinations, dark tourists as pilgrims, and pilgrimage as a form of dark tourism. Taking a broad definition of pilgrimage so as to consider aspects of both religious and non-religious travel that might be considered pilgrimage-like, it covers theories and histories of dark tourism and pilgrimage, pilgrimage to dark tourism sites, and experience design. A key resource for researchers and students of heritage, tourism and pilgrimage, this book will also be of great interest to those studying anthropology, religious studies and related social science subjects.

      SO SAD, SO HAPPY

      by Anton Gudim

      So Sad So Happy is a collection of comics. Deliberately using few words and playing with perspective, Moscow-based illustrator Anton Gudim wittily depicts loneliness and frustration of modern living with deadpan humour. With restrained colours and simple art style, his comics challenge stereotypes and habits that we take for granted with a twist on each page. They encourage us to look at the world with a refreshed eye.

      Fish in Distress

      On the careful management of an endangered resource

      by Manfred Kriener, Stefan Linzmaier

      Consumers stand perplexed at the fish counter. Cod or salmon; mackerel or sea bass? Or perhaps rather carp and trout? How about flounder and dab? Dab what? A terrific flatfish, but sadly hardly anyone has heard of it. And what was it again about organic, aquaculture, wild-caught, and that little blue sustainability certificate? Is catching your own a way out? Before you start thinking it’s time to opt for a chop and fried potatoes instead, read this book. It provides readers with deep blue facts from the world’s waters and analyses the global and local habitat of the finned creature.

      Practising shame

      Female honour in later medieval England

      by Mary C. Flannery, Anke Bernau, David Matthews

      Practicing shame investigates how the literature of medieval England encouraged women to safeguard their honour by cultivating hypervigilance against the possibility of sexual shame. A combination of inward reflection and outward comportment, this practice of 'shamefastness' was believed to reinforce women's chastity of mind and body, and to communicate that chastity to others by means of conventional gestures. The book uncovers the paradoxes and complications that emerged from these emotional practices, as well as the ways in which they were satirised and reappropriated by male authors. Working at the intersection of literary studies, gender studies and the history of emotions, it transforms our understanding of the ethical construction of femininity in the past and provides a new framework for thinking about honourable womanhood now and in the years to come.

      Climate Change. What We Can Do Now

      by Ruth Omphalius/ Monika Azakli

      “There is no Planet B!” More and more young people are worried about the future of Planet Earth. Climate change is heating not only the planet but also people’s emotions. But what exactly is climate? And why are the changes threatening the lives of both polar bears and us humans. In simple language but with solid science, the authors explain the most important aspects of climate, from the greenhouse effect to the Gulf Stream. Current developments are described as well, and the scientific background is supplemented by gripping reports. The book also offers a glimpse of the future: what will happen if we go on in the same way as now? How can climate change be halted? This makes for riveting reading – and not just for young activists.

      Hölderlin in Bad Homburg

      by Jochen Schmidt

      Zweimal zwei Jahre verbrachte Hölderlin in Bad Homburg. In jener Zeit entstanden einige seiner wichtigsten Werke, u.a. Hyperion und Der Tod des Empedokles sowie bedeutende Gedichte. Der vorliegende Band berichtet über Hölderlins Lebensgeschichte bis zum Ausbruch des Wahnsinns und bietet einen Überblick über seine geistige Welt, insbesondere seinen Philosophenkosmos und die literarischen Leitfiguren. Er zeigt auch sein politisch-revolutionäres Engagement in einer vom Spätabsolutismus bestimmten Zeit. Der Leser erhält eine bisher so nicht vorhandene, konzentrierte Darstellung zu Hölderlins Dichtung aus der Feder eines führenden Hölderlin-Forschers. Eine Auswahl von Gedichten und Bildern rundet diesen Begleiter zu Hölderlin ab.

      At home with the poor

      Consumer behaviour and material culture in England, c. 1650-1850

      by Joseph Harley

      This book opens the doors to the homes of the forgotten poor and traces the goods they owned before, during and after the industrial revolution (c. 1650-1850). Using a vast and diverse range of sources, it gets to the very heart of what it meant to be 'poor' by examining the homes of the impoverished and mapping how numerous household goods became more widespread. As the book argues, poverty did not necessarily equate to owning very little and living in squalor. In fact, its novel findings show that most of the poor strove to improve their domestic spheres and that their demand for goods was so great that it was a driving force of the industrial revolution.

      The trouble with freedom

      Love, hate and America's future

      by Melissa Butcher

      An illuminating account of how Americans have been divided by the very value that unites them. America today is being torn apart by the struggle over a single concept, deeply rooted in the country's sense of self: freedom. Battered by wave after wave of crises, ordinary people of all political persuasions have come to feel that their freedom is under threat - and with it, nothing less than the soul of the nation. In The trouble with freedom, journalist and researcher Melissa Butcher takes a trip into the ferociously polarised world of American politics, hoping to find out what's going on beneath the surface. Criss-crossing the country, she talks to a wide range of people: Democrat and Republican, gay and straight, urban and rural, immigrants, First Nations, Black, white, the incarcerated. What she discovers is that political conflict is often the outcome of very personal experiences of managing cultural change. Exploring the different ways freedom has been used to define what it means to be American, Butcher encounters anger and distrust, but also untapped possibilities for empathy and care.

      Die Vielfalt der Bedeutung

      Zeichen, Ziele und ihre Verwandtschaft

      by Ruth G. Millikan, Hajo Greif

      Menschliche Gedanken und Handlungen, Organe und Organismen, Werkzeuge und sprachliche Bedeutungen scheinen kaum etwas miteinander gemeinsam zu haben – außer daß man ihnen allen Ziele und Zwecke zuspricht. Ruth G. Millikan vertritt die Auffassung, daß es eine echte, robuste, in der Evolutionsgeschichte begründete Verbindung zwischen all diesen verschiedenen Formen von Zielen und Zwecken gibt. Nur in ihrer Verbindung miteinander, so die These, sind sie überhaupt angemessen zu verstehen. Zur Begründung führt Millikan neue Erkenntnisse der Biologie, Psychologie und Linguistik an, entwickelt eine innovative Sicht auf Sprache und Denken und bietet zugleich eine umfassende Einführung in die naturalistische Philosophie des Geistes.
