View Rights Portal»Aldous Huxley«: Broch … ist völlig zu Haus auf der Spiegeloberfläche und agiert manchmal dort mit unfehlbarer Virtuosität. Es liegt an der doppelten Fähigkeit dieses Autors, seinem Vermögen, gleichzeitig zwei unvereinbare Welten zu zeichnen. Dieser Band legt eine Sammlung von 13 Novellen vor, die besten aus Brochs Gesamtwerk. Die früheste »Eine methodologische Novelle«, wurde 1917 geschrieben, die späteste, »Die Erzählung der Magd Zerline«, 1949. Die Besonderheit dieser Sammlung besteht in der erstmaligen Präsentation aller vorhandenen Tierkreisnovellen in ihrer Ursprungsfassung. Bisher unveröffentlicht ist die Novelle »Esperance«. Das Nachwort ist eine Einführung in das novellistische Werk Hermann Brochs. Der Kommentar referiert die textkritische Situation sämtlicher Novellen, die an einen Philosophen erinnern, »der gleichzeitig ein Künstler von außergewöhnlicher Bildung und Reinheit ist«.
Andro, Top Secret! - Error: School (Vol. 1) 0% human and 100% android At first glance, Andro Newman seems like a normal boy - but Andro is a robot who is secretly smuggled into a school class as a human boy. Mission: to explore the humans and not to be exposed under any circumstances. Easier said than done, because these terribly illogical beings called humans and their strange habits have to be understood first. But the AI android 3.0-m, correction, Andro Neumann, has to get through it now: his builders have given him a clear goal! • Situational comedy meets a great narrative voice • Varied layout with different fonts, vignettes and illustrations • Special hook: a robot goes undercover at school
Tagsüber ist Hubert Kleinganove und betreibt eine Pfandleihe im Kohlenpott Polens der achtziger Jahre. Nachts vor dem Spiegel und mit Perlen geschmückt nennt er sich Barbara Radziwill – nach der Königin von Polen und Großfürstin von Litauen. Sein Geld verdient er mit »Baguette überbacken«, dem Dönerkebab der Volksrepublik. Und mit gestohlenen Chrysanthemen vom Friedhof. Wenn es eine Schuld einzutreiben gilt, sind seine »Hofdamen« zur Stelle, Sascha und Felus. Die beiden Ukrainer wissen, wie sie ihn um den Finger wickeln können. Michal Witkowski, ein Meister der Vielstimmigkeit, verwebt den Slang der Straße mit der sarmatischen Adelsplauderei zu einer Lebensbeichte, vergleichbar einem Mix aus Dorota Maslowskas Reiherkönigin und Grimmelshausens Simplicissimus.
Andro, Top Secret! - Short Circuit on Class Trip (Vol. 3) Update: Class Trip - The Big Unmasking At first glance, Andro Newman seems like a normal boy - but Andro is a robot who is secretly smuggled into a school class as a human boy. Mission: to explore the humans and not to be exposed under any circumstances. An innovative hook meets a scribble-like layout that transports the joke from the text to the picture. The topic of "artificial intelligence" is taken up in a playful way and embedded in a setting at school. What happens in Volume 3:Andro's first challenge for the upcoming class trip is to pack his suitcase. Meanwhile, his "parents" want to take him apart and build a better robot from the parts, since Andro's friendship score is so bad. Andro wants to give up the silly point collecting and enjoy the trip, but technical disturbances and lack of energy supply create new problems. Fellow student Marko is annoying and Julius constantly wants to prove that he is better at everything. Mr. Lembke is still convinced that Andro is a robot and wants to prove his suspicions on the class trip.• Dynamic layout with lots of fonts, vignettes and illustrations• Situational comedy meets a great narrative voice• Special hook: a robot goes undercover at school• The narrative perspective from the point of view of an artificial intelligence offers a lot of humor potential
Andro, Top Secret! - Emotions and other Disruptive Factors (Vol. 2) Battery full and go! At first glance, Andro Newman seems like a normal boy - but Andro is a robot who is secretly smuggled into a school class as a human boy. Mission: to explore the humans and not to be exposed under any circumstances. Andro's undercover spy mission continues: visit the fifth grade of the Konrad Zuse School, gather information about the complicated species called "humans" and find true friends. However, one peculiarity of these humans remains a mystery to Andro: their illogical feelings. This costs the android a lot of friendship points. He installs an emotion module to connect with humans better - but secretly, of course. The ‘emotion’ module works and Andro earns a lot of friendship points! It even works too well and Andro is no longer master of his senses - sorry - of his cables and screws: Andro has to let Lilli in on it, and together they absolutely have to turn off the module. • Situational comedy meets a great narrative voice • Varied layout with different fonts, vignettes and illustrations • Special hook: a robot goes undercover at school
