This book offers an innovative account of manliness in Britain between 1760 and 1900. Using diverse textual, visual and material culture sources, it shows that masculinities were produced and disseminated through men's bodies -often working-class ones - and the emotions and material culture associated with them. The book analyses idealised men who stimulated desire and admiration, including virile boxers, soldiers, sailors and blacksmiths, brave firemen and noble industrial workers. It also investigates unmanly men, such as drunkards, wife-beaters and masturbators, who elicited disgust and aversion. Unusually, Manliness in Britain runs from the eras of feeling, revolution and reform to those of militarism, imperialism, representative democracy and mass media, periods often dealt with separately by historians of masculinities.

This unique picture book is a creation of Khrystyna Lukashchuk, a well-known Ukrainian author and artist recognized as one of the best illustrators of independent Ukraine. From the emergence of Ukraine through its darkest times to its final victory over evil, A Tale Of Light allows us to find answers to dramatic questions: how can we explain to children why there is a war in their country? Why can not the enemy leave the Ukrainian land in peace? What will help us to defeat the enemy for good? The profound symbolic images that the author recreated will guide the readers along their journey. Ukrainians have been tapping into them for long times to find a source of harmony and internal strength – they are a powerful source of Light sustained by Ukrainian history, culture, and language. No enemy, however big or conniving, can destroy this Light. From 3 to 6 years, 719 words Rightsholders: bondarenkosvetlak@gmail.com

Beck wurde rausgeschmissen am Schwielowsee, in Cern wurde der Teilchenbeschleuniger angestellt, und nachdem Damien Hirst in London seine Sensationsauktion glücklich (111 Millionen Pfund Erlös) hinter sich gebracht hatte, kollabierten noch am selben Tag in New York die in die dortigen Feuchtbiotope und Felsen hinein errichteten Banken: Lehman, Goldman, Partners und Konsorten. Das Wort Rettungsschirm kam auf, die Dinger wurden aufgespannt, die Kredite trotzdem immer fauler. Kreditkrise, Staatskrise, Vertrauen weg, Derivate angeblich hochspekulativ usw. Frage an den Staat: Hast du mal ein paar Millliarden? Herr Ackermann, Herr Mehdorn, der Schwarze Schwan im Herbst 2008; September, Oktober, November. Ja: Wie war das gleich noch mal gewesen? Wie hat sich das angefühlt? Loslabern erzählt in drei Kapiteln (1. Reise; 2. Herbstempfang 2008; 3. Der Jüngling) verschiedene Geschichten aus dieser grandios durchgeknallten Zeit. Das Ende vom Anfang des neuen Jahrtausends war plötzlich da.

Seit einem halben Jahrhundert hält Peter Sloterdijk jeden Morgen Gedanken, Erlebnisse und Kommentare zum Zeitgeschehen fest; seit 2012 hat er zwei Bücher mit datierten Notizen aus diesem Fundus publiziert – zur Begeisterung seiner Leser und der Kritik: »Ansichten, die zu verblüffen wissen, ein- und aufleuchten.« (FAZ) Mit der nun erscheinenden Fortsetzung decken die Aufzeichnungen einen großen Teil des langen Jahrzehnts zwischen der Lehman-Pleite und Wladimir Putins Angriff auf die Ukraine ab. Dabei bietet auch dieser Band weit mehr als die Chronik einer Abfolge politischer Krisen um Krim (2014), Migration (2015) und Brexit (2016). Zeilen und Tage III bleibt der polythematischen, weitwinkligen und mit dem Zufall sympathisierenden Grundhaltung des Notizen-Projekts verpflichtet. Sloterdijk ist beim Leben, Denken und Lesen stets in Bewegung, stellt Campusromanszenen neben Kurzrezensionen, funkelnde Aphorismen neben szintigrafisch protokollierte Vitalfunktionen. So drückt sich in diesem Band erneut eine chronische Reizbarkeit aus, die unabhängig von der Jahreszeit auf den Pollenflug der Themen reagiert.

Spätestens als Lehman Brothers im September 2008 Insolvenz anmelden mußte, hatte es für einen kurzen Moment den Anschein, als habe die letzte Stunde des Neoliberalismus geschlagen: Nachdem das Mantra vom Markt und von der Privatisierung seit den siebziger Jahren in aller Munde war, sollten nun die Regierungen eingreifen, um systemrelevante Banken zu retten. Die Kompetenz der Wirtschaftsführer stand massiv in Frage. Heute, nur drei Jahre später, bekommen die Manager wieder riesige Boni. Zur Refinanzierung der Rettungspakete werden Sozialleistungen gekürzt. Die Logik des radikalen Wettbewerbs und des unternehmerischen Selbst prägt nach wie vor unsere Mentalität. Wie ist das möglich? Diese Frage stellt Colin Crouch in seinem großen neuen Essay. Der Autor des vielbeachteten Bestsellers »Postdemokratie« zeichnet die Ideengeschichte des Neoliberalismus nach und betont, daß der Konflikt Staat vs. Markt zu kurz greift: Es sind die gigantischen transnationalen Konzerne, unter denen die Demokratie »und« das Marktmodell leiden. Doch wir können uns wehren, indem wir uns auf unsere Werte und unsere Macht als Verbraucher besinnen. Das ist Crouchs optimistische Vision einer sozialen und demokratischen Marktwirtschaft.

May the Loveforce Be With introduces a new lineage in energy healing, Kali-Ki ReikiTM, that was revealed to the author, Joni Dittrich, Ph.D. (Rajashree Maa), in a series of mystical encounters with the Divine Mother appearing as the goddess Kali Maa. The book brilliantly tells the stories of these encounters and presents the healing symbols that She revealed, explaining how these symbols can be used both for mind-body healing and spiritual awakening, or what Rajashree Maa calls "wisening." While traditional reiki systems also use symbols to transmit healing energy, the symbols introduced in Kali-Ki Reiki are seen as unique, three-dimensional, active, intelligent forms of light that tap into certain universal energy frequencies that are particularly attuned to the evolving conscious awareness as well as the personal and societal dilemmas of our current times. The fact that these symbols were revealed by Divine Mother to a woman in this era points to a need in today's world to re-establish our connection with the feminine forces of nature and spirit. The healing energy transmitted through these symbols is called Loveforce, which is considered to be the manifesting, creative, and healing power of the Limitless Love that is the Source of all that is.
