Language teaching & learning (other than ELT)January 2011Querido Diego, Te abraza Quiela by Elena Poniatowska
by Elena Poniatowska
by Nathanial Gardner
One of the threads that runs through Elena Poniatowska's oeuvre is that of foreigners who have fallen in love with Mexico and its people. This is certainly the case of Querido Diego, te abraza Quiela - a brief novel (so short it was originally published in its entirety in Octavio Paz's literary magazine Vuelta). The Russian exile and painter Angelina Beloff writes from the cold and impoverished post-war Paris to Diego Rivera, her spouse of over ten years. Beloff sends these letters to which there is no response during a time when the emancipation of women has broken many of the standard models and the protagonist struggles to fashion her own. Elena Poniatowska has (re)created these letters and within them one finds the unforgettable testimony of an artist and her lover during the valuable crossroads of a new time when Diego Rivera was forging a new life in his native country. In this edition, Nathanial Gardner comments on the truth and fiction Poniatowska has woven together to form this compact, yet rich, modern classic. Using archives in London, Paris and Mexico City (including Angelina's correspondence held in Frida Kahlo's own home) as well as interviews from the final remaining characters who knew the real Angelina, Gardner offers a mediation of the text and its historical groundings as well as critical commentary. This edition will appeal to both students and scholars of Latin American Studies as well as lovers of Mexican Literature and Art in general.

Shattered Crystal
by Baruch Cohen
A riveting historical novel about a Berlin family during World War II, whose members struggle to come to terms with conflicting parts of their identities. Widower Franz Kerner and his three grown children live their lives as loyal German citizens. With the Third Reich’s rise to power and subsequent war, they do their best for their beloved country, during those tumultuous times. Karl, the eldest, enlists in the Luftwaffe and becomes a pilot; Elsa, the middle child, works at a government office; and Helmut, the youngest, joins the infantry. But Franz harbors a deep secret, one that defines the Kerners’ identity. When he finally reveals the secret, their worlds are deeply shaken. Illustrating the characters’ inner struggles against the backdrop of the raging war, the author vividly recounts this intricate tale. The historical aspects in the novel are based on largescale, comprehensive research, and serve to shed light on major global events from a more intimate point of view, one that illustrates the repercussions of war for all of mankind. Baruch (Bobby) Cohen was born in Romania (1927) and, after previous unsuccessful attempts, immigrated to Israel in 1948 upon its establishment. The author served in the Israeli Navy, and later worked at the State Comptroller’s Office until his retirement as deputy director of inspection of Israel’s security forces. For his activities in helping the Romanian Jews between 1945-1947, Cohen was awarded the Decoration of State Warriors by the Israel Ministry of Defense. Shattered Crystal is Cohen’s second book. His first, The Decade of Tears, recounts the story of three young Jews in the newly-born State of Israel in the decade following WWII. An English-language North-American edition was published in early 2021 by Samuel Wachtman's Sons, Inc., CA. 242 Pages, 15X22.5 cm

Literature & Literary StudiesSeptember 2008Epicene, or The Silent Woman
by Ben Jonson
by Richard Dutton
Epicene is now one of the most widely-studied of Johnson's plays. Brilliantly exploiting the Jacobean convention whereby boys played female roles, it satirises the newly fashionable and sexually ambiguous world of the West End of London, where courtly wit rubs shoulders with commercial values. This authoritative new edition, now in paperback, is based on a thorough re-examination of the earliest texts. The introduction analyses the play as originally written for the newly formed Children of the Queen's Revels, and performed at the little-known Whitefriars Theatre. Dutton discusses the composition of the play, which took place during a critical period in Jonson's life and career, when he was established as the principal writer of entertainments at the court. His relationships at this time, with ambitious wits such as John Donne, Sir Edward Herbert and the actor Nathan Field, are examined as models for the principal characters. This challengingly historicised text of Epicene will be essential reading for all serious students of early modern drama. ;

October 1994Revolutionen in der Naturwissenschaft
by I. Bernard Cohen, Werner Kutschmann
Wie konnte sich der Ausdruck ›Revolution‹, der ursprünglich immerhin ein Terminus für astronomische Vorgänge, Umläufe oder Umdrehungen von Himmelskörpern, gewesen war, in einen Begriff der politischen Macht- und Herrschaftsgeschichte verwandeln? Und wie kam es dazu, dass dieser gesellschaftspolitische Revolutionsbegriff wiederum auf die Naturwissenschaften und deren Erkenntnisgeschichte angewandt wurde? Ist es überhaupt legitim, den Begriff der politischen Revolution einschließlich all seiner machttheoretischen Konnotationen auf den Siegeszug einer naturwissenschaftlichen Idee, eines erkenntnisleitenden Paradigmas, zu übertragen, wie es uns die theoretische Wissenschaftsgeschichtsschreibung seit Th. S. Kuhn lehrt? Die sind die Fragen, mit denen Cohens Untersuchung über Revolutionen in der Naturwissenschaft anhebt. Cohen verfolgt einen Zeitraum von mehr als vier Jahrhunderten umspannt und nahezu alle wichtigen Bereiche der Naturwissenschaften erfasst – von der Astronomie bis zur Evolutionstheorie, von den Geowissenschaften bis zur Freudschen Psychoanalyse, von der Galileischen Kinematik bis zur Einsteinschen Relativitätstheorie und Atomphysik -, die historische Kariere eines Begriffs, der sich in mehreren Wandlungen und Metamorphosen durch die Naturwissenschafts- und Sozialgeschichte hindurchzieht, um letztlich als der entscheidende Begriff des mit Kuhn vollzogenen sociological turn in der Wissenschaftsgeschichtsschreibung eine neue Auferstehung zu erleben.

Shattered Crystal: Ein historischer Roman
by Baruch Cohen
Ein spannender historischer Roman über eine Berliner Familie während des Zweiten Weltkriegs, deren Mitglieder sich mit widersprüchlichen Teilen ihrer Identität auseinandersetzen müssen. Witwer Franz Kerner und seine drei erwachsenen Kinder leben ihr Leben als treue deutsche Staatsbürger. Mit der Machtergreifung des Dritten Reiches und dem anschließenden Krieg geben sie in diesen bewegten Zeiten ihr Bestes für ihr geliebtes Land. Karl, der Älteste, tritt in die Luftwaffe ein und wird Pilot. Elsa, das mittlere Kind, arbeitet in einem Regierungsbüro, und Helmut, der jüngste, schließt sich der Infanterie an. Aber Franz birgt ein tiefes Geheimnis, das die Identität der Kerners definiert. Als er endlich das Geheimnis preisgibt, sind ihre Welten tief erschüttert. Der Autor illustriert die inneren Kämpfe der Charaktere vor dem Hintergrund des tobenden Krieges und erzählt anschaulich diese komplizierte Geschichte. Die historischen Aspekte des Romans basieren auf umfangreichen Recherchen und dienen dazu, wichtige globale Ereignisse aus einer intimeren Perspektive zu beleuchten. So werden die Auswirkungen des Krieges auf die gesamte Menschheit veranschaulicht. Baruch (Bobby) Cohen wurde in Rumänien (1927) geboren und wanderte nach früheren erfolglosen Versuchen nach seiner Gründung 1948 nach Israel aus. Der Autor diente in der israelischen Marine und arbeitete später bis zu seiner Pensionierung als stellvertretender Inspektionsdirektor der israelischen Sicherheitskräfte im Büro des State Comptroller. Für seine Aktivitäten zur Unterstützung der rumänischen Juden zwischen 1945 und 1947 wurde Baruch Cohen vom israelischen Verteidigungsministerium mit der Auszeichnung als Staatskrieger ausgezeichnet. Shattered Crystal ist Cohens zweites Buch. Sein erstes, Das Jahrzehnt der Tränen, erzählt die Geschichte von drei jungen Juden im neugeborenen Staat Israel im Jahrzehnt nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg.

September 2017Freiheit
Zeitgenössische Texte zu einer philosophischen Kontroverse
by Philipp Schink
Wie sieht ein überzeugendes Verständnis der Freiheit von Individuen in Gesellschaft und Politik aus? Welche philosophischen Traditionen helfen bei der Beantwortung dieser Frage? Welcher analytische Zugang ist geboten? Das in den 1990er Jahren wiedererwachte Interesse an einer theoretischen Reflexion der Freiheit hat seither zu einer Reihe von bahnbrechenden Studien geführt, die an einflussreiche Beiträge aus der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts anschließen, wie sie etwa Isaiah Berlin, Hannah Arendt oder Friedrich August von Hayek geliefert haben. Der Band versammelt sowohl diese Klassiker als auch diejenigen Texte, die im Zentrum der aktuellen Debatte stehen: von Charles Taylor, Philip Pettit, Quentin Skinner, Rainer Forst, Gerald Cohen, Nancy Hirschmann u. a. Er bietet so eine umfassende Einführung in eine der lebhaftesten und wichtigsten philosophischen Kontroversen der Gegenwart.
