Sam Hanna (1903-96), a pioneering filmmaker from Burnley, Lancashire, was dubbed the 'Lowry of filmmaking' by BBC broadcaster Brian Redhead in the 1980s. The well-meant label stuck, even though it misses the variety of Hanna's remarkable output. Hanna's intimate glimpses into the lives of strangers enable us to imagine the possible stories that lie behind the images. Away from mid-century exponents of documentary filmmaking and photography, Hanna shows us humanity and a microcosm of a world in change, where his subjects are caught up in issues far beyond their grasp that we, as onlookers years later, encounter and see afresh. Written and curated by historian Heather Norris Nicholson, Round our way combines stills, essays and archive photography to document Hanna's unique visual record on film, particularly in northern England, but also further afield, during decades of profound change.

Was verbergen wir, indem wir uns zeigen? Und warum wissen wir am wenigsten über das, was uns am meisten bewegt? Rachel Cusk ist die spannendste Schriftstellerin unserer Zeit und Kudos der Abschluss ihres Meisterwerks, ein lebenskluger, beziehungsreicher Roman, erzählt mit schlichter Eleganz und abgründigem Witz. Faye ist Schriftstellerin und unterwegs, ihren neuen Roman vorzustellen. Für sie scheint diese Reise lebensentscheidend. Nicht nur hofft sie, endlich die ihr gebührende öffentliche Anerkennung zu finden, sie sucht vor allem Abstand zu einer privaten Katastrophe. Sie begegnet Kollegen, die sich um Kopf und Kragen reden, sie bestreitet Bühnengespräche, in denen man ihr nicht zuhört, und sie gibt Interviews, ohne wirklich selbst zu Wort zu kommen. Doch je mehr sie sich auf die anderen einlässt, umso deutlicher wird Faye, was jenseits all der Geschichten und Fiktionen liegt, mit denen die Menschen sich fast obsessiv wappnen. Die Konsequenz, die Faye für sich daraus zieht, ist einleuchtend – führt sie aber geradewegs zurück in die Bodenlosigkeit ihrer persönlichen Situation.
Quine vermag uns zu überraschen. Nicht nur, weil er die sonst vielfach trocken wirkenden Probleme von Sprachphilosophie und philosophischer Logik mit anschaulichen Formulierungen, treffenden Beispielen und verblüffenden Bildern lebendig zu machen versteht, sondern weil er überdies imstande ist, längst gesichert und abgetan geglaubten Themen neue Fragen und vor allem unvorhergesehene Antworten abzugewinnen. Neben Erörterungen technischlogischer Begründungsfragen, bei denen Quines mustergültige Klarheit und sein Verzicht auf einschüchterndes Brimborium erfrischend zu unvermuteten Einsichten verhelfen, finden sich in diesen Abhandlungen Auseinandersetzungen mit der Geschichte der Philosophie, namentlich des Empirismus, sowie kritische Darstellungen der Gedankenwelt Russells, Austins, Smarts, Goodmans, Gödels und Lewis Carrolls. Gleichsam nebenbei, doch nie als Nebensache, werden prinzipielle Probleme behandelt, etwa die Kontextabhängigkeit philosophischer Fragestellungen, und es werden ausgefallene Aspekte allgemeiner Begriffe deutlich gemacht, etwa die Rolle von Metaphern bei der Entwicklung wissenschaftlich fruchtbarer Ideen.
