For many years Middleton's "A Game at Chess" was more notorious than read, considered rather a phenomenon of theatrical history than a pre-eminent piece of dramatic writing. "A Game at Chess" was a nine days' wonder, an exceptional play of King James' reign on account of its unprecedented representation of matters of state usually forbidden on the stage. The King's Men performed the play uninterruptedly between 5th and 14th August, 1624 at their Globe Theatre, attracting large audiences, before the Privy Council closed the theatre by the King's command. More recently, growing interest in the connections of economics and politics with authorship have promoted readings that locate the play so firmly within its historical context as propaganda that, again, its worthwhile literary and theatrical qualities are neglected. In writing "A Game at Chess", Middleton employed the devices of the neoclassical comedy of intrigue within the matrix of the traditional oral play. What might have seemed old-fashioned allegory was rejuvenated by his adoption of the fashionable game of chess as the fiction within which the play was set. The product of Middleton's experienced craftsmanship is at once deceptively simple and surprisingly complex. ;

DER KABBALA-CODE – Ein esoterisch-kabbalistischer Thriller von Nathan Erez und Dorit Ginzburg-Silberman Ein israelischer Thriller, der zwei scheinbar zusammenhanglose Elemente miteinander verbindet: eine Serie mysteriöser Morde und die Dechiffrierung alter kabbalistischer Texte, Ein Professor aus Jerusalem, Experte für die Entzifferung alter hebräischer Manuskripte, erhält einen geheimnisvollen Auftrag, der ihn über drei Kontinente führt. Dabei verstrickt er sich immer tiefer in ein Netz von Morden und Intrigen und sieht sich mit zahlreichen ungelösten Fragen konfrontiert. Doch sein Wissen im Bereich der Kabbala, einer mystischen Buchstaben- und Zahlenlehre ermöglicht ihm, das Unglück, das seiner Familie und vielen anderen Menschen droht, abzuwenden. Die wechselhafte Historie der Eroberungen Jerusalems und die Lehren der Kabbala sind spannungsvoll in die Erzählung gewoben. Ihre Relevanz und Bedeutung für die Geschichte wird am Ende des Buches deutlich. Der Kabbala-Code ist ein aufregender und packender Thriller. Dank seiner einzigartigen Struktur, der bereichernden Thematik des geheimen Wissens der Kabbala und der überraschenden Auflösung fesselt die Geschichte ihre Leser. Dorit Ginzburg-Silbermann hat das Buch zusammen mit dem israelischen Kabbalisten Nathan Erez (Pseudonym) geschrieben, der bis heute seine wahre Identität nicht preisgibt. Dr. Ginzburg-Silberman lehrt Literaturwissenschaft an führenden Universitäten in Israel.

This book is the first full-length study of contemporary American fiction of passing. Its takes as its point of departure the return of racial and gender passing in the 1990s in order to make claims about wider trends in contemporary American fiction. The book accounts for the return of tropes of passing in fiction by Phillip Roth, Percival Everett, Louise Erdrich, Danzy Senna, Jeffrey Eugenides and Paul Beatty, by arguing meta-critical and meta-fictional tool. These writers are attracted to the trope of passing because passing narratives have always foregrounded the notion of textuality in relation to the (il)legibility of "black" subjects passing as white. The central argument of this book, then, is that contemporary narratives of passing are concerned with articulating and unpacking an analogy between passing and authorship. The title promises to inaugurate dialogue on the relationships between passing, postmodernism and authorship in contemporary American fiction.
