September 2008Selbstmord im Paradies
Mein Leben in der Sekte
by Deborah Layton, Carrie Asman, Sibylle Mall
Er hatte ihnen das Paradies auf Erden versprochen. Und sie sind ihm gefolgt – bis in den Tod. Vor dreißig Jahren geriet die US-Sekte People’s Temple in die Schlagzeilen der internationalen Presse. Ein regelrechtes Massaker hatte am 28. November 1978 in Jonestown (Guyana) stattgefunden, 913 Menschen starben, darunter 276 Kinder. Opfer eines charismatischen Führers, James Warren Jones. Was treibt Menschen dazu, sich in ein System der Unterdrückung und Manipulation zu begeben, das sie mit dem Leben bezahlen? Deborah Layton, die neun Jahre lang Mitglied der Sekte war, konnte ein halbes Jahr vor dem Massaker aus Jonestown fliehen. Zwanzig Jahre später schrieb sie diesen eindrücklichen Bericht. Ein Buch mit Wucht. Ein Buch, das auf fesselnde Weise aufklärt. Ein Buch von beängstigender Aktualität.

Literature & Literary StudiesOctober 2023The penny politics of Victorian popular fiction
by Rob Breton
Penny politics offers a new way to read early Victorian popular fiction such as Jack Sheppard, Sweeney Todd, and The Mysteries of London. It locates forms of radical discourse in the popular literature that emerged simultaneously with Brittan's longest and most significant people's movement. It listens for echoes of Chartist fiction in popular fiction. The book rethinks the relationship between the popular and political, understanding that radical politics had popular appeal and that the lines separating a genuine radicalism from commercial success are complicated and never absolute. With archival work into Newgate calendars and Chartist periodicals, as well as media history and culture, it brings together histories of the popular and political so as to rewrite the radical canon.

Does Movement Really Make Us Smart?
by Petra Jansen, Stefanie Richter
Media reports often praise movement as a cure-all. But apart from its undisputed positive effect on health, does movement really make us smarter? Consider a national football team, for example – are these excessively sports-driven players automatically the smartest people? Should we simply replace all school subjects with sports? The authors provide a detailed summary of the latest scientific findings on the influence of movement on cognitive ability. They describe the effects of movement, on old age, embodiment, emotion, school as well as other factors that influence cognition. Target Group: teachers, lecturers, psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, psychotherapists, movement therapists.

Humanities & Social SciencesJune 2010The Paddington prophet
Richard Brothers's journey to Jerusalem
by Deborah Madden
As an educated gentleman and naval officer, Richard Brothers dramatically altered eighteenth-century expectations and perceptions of what prophets were and the nature of prophecy itself. The messianic messages delivered to Londoners by the self-styled prophet are central to the religious politics and culture of the 1790s, mockingly referred to by one contemporary critic as the 'age of prophecy'. The Paddington Prophet is the first book-length study which probes deep under the skin of Brothers's apparently idiosyncratic writings and religious 'enthusiasm'. Close textual analysis of Brothers's writings shows the extent to which his Biblical, 'prophetic imagination' arose out of the same theological, political and cultural context that spurred 'radicals' like Tom Paine whilst inspiring poets and artists such as William Blake. Tracing the contours of his visionary experiences, this book exposes the intensity and vibrancy of Brothers's faith, the power of his prophetic imagination and the internal logic of his theology. ;
