        Shaping a global women's agenda: women's NGOs and global governance, 1925–85

        by Karen Garner

        Drawing on a wide range of archival sources, Karen Garner documents international women's history through the lens of the long-established Western-led international organisations that defined and dominated women's involvement in global politics from the 1925 founding of the Joint Standing Committee of Women's International Organisations up through the UN Decade for Women (1976-85). Documenting specific global campaigns in episodes that span the twentieth century, Garner includes biographical information about lesser known international leaders as she discusses important historic debates regarding feminist goals and strategies among women from the East and West, North and South. This interdisciplinary study addresses questions of interest to historians, political scientists, international relations scholars, sociologists, and feminist scholars and activists whose work promotes women's and human rights. ;

        A Dreamland of Prince

        by QIN Wenjun

        Compared with the previous calm and beautiful life Prince has had, Prince’s life now is extreme misery. Prince finds out that all of the animals who always help him are actually his disappeared friends, and they tell Prince that the mysterious long lane behind the wall in his father's study is very dangerous, once you are not discreet enough, you might convert into animals immediately. Prince also finds that after their converting, they are all animalized, although they can understand what Prince says, but what they can do is little. The wolf who appeared in Prince’s bedroom comes to see Prince again telling him that he is a messenger of his father, and what his father wants the wolf to report is exactly what Prince’s animal friends have said: do not enter this lane again even Prince wants to save his friends and family, because Prince needs to take risks alone. Prince realizes that this long lane is the key to solving all of these absurdities, and he has to embark on his new adventure.

        Agentieller Realismus

        by Karen Barad, Jürgen Schröder

        Mit ihrem Konzept des »Agentialen Realismus« findet Karen Barad seit einigen Jahren große Aufmerksamkeit, insbesondere unter Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftlern, die sich mit Diskursanalyse, Techniksoziologie und Gender Studies beschäftigten. Barads Anliegen besteht darin, das Denken über Sprache, Diskurse und Dinge auf eine radikal neue Grundlage zu stellen. In ihrem vielbeachteten Essay, mit dem nun erstmals ein Text Barads auf Deutsch vorliegt, plädiert sie ausgehend von epistemologischen Überlegungen des dänischen Physikers Niels Bohr dafür, die Grenzen zwischen den Objekten, unseren Instrumenten, der Sprache und den menschlichen Beobachtern neu zu vermessen.

        Niccolo Machiavelli's The Prince

        by Martin Coyle

        No text has attracted more controversy over the centuries than Machiavelli's The Prince. Placed on the Index of Prohibited Books by the Catholic Church in 1599, The Prince nevertheless proved to be the means by which Machiavelli came to be known throughout Europe, establishing his name as a byword for the cunning and unscrupulous politician. Written as the medieval world was giving way to the new dynamic of renaissance capitalism, The Prince embodies a whole series of vital issues that affect our understanding of modern politics, including power and morality, history and human nature, language and meaning, gender and government. It is these issues which the essays in this volume debate and explore from a variety of perspectives, from the original responses to The Prince through to feminist and deconstructive approaches. The result is a volume packed with ideas and insights. With contributions by international scholars and critics, a chronological table and select bibliography, this is an essential guide for anyone studying Machiavelli. ;

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, CACHETEJACK, Silke Kleemann

        Das Talent hatte er von seinen Eltern, die Jazzmusiker waren. Schon mit sieben Jahren komponierte er am Klavier seines Vaters seinen ersten Song: Funk Machine. Funk, das war abgefahren und schrill, es bestand aus Soul, Rhythm and Blues und Jazz – und Tanz. Keiner verkörperte auf der Bühne diese Mischung so großartig wie Prince. Er sang, spielte, tanzte. Manchmal sogar mit High Heels. Seine Bühnenshows versetzten die Fans in Ekstase. Und seine Musik tut es immer noch. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.

        Ehrengard

        by Tania Blixen, Brigitte Lorch, Brigitte Kronauer

        »Ehrengard«, die letzte Erzählung, die Tania Blixen geschrieben hat, hätte, wie Tania Blixen kurz vor ihrem Tod verraten hat, auch den Titel »Tagebuch des Verführers« tragen können: wie Søren Kierkegaards berühmtes Buch von 1843. Ein ironischer Unterton wäre dabei aber nicht zu überhören gewesen, denn die raffiniert inszenierte Verführung steht bei Tina Blixen unter einem ganz anderen Zeichen, einer anderen Bedeutung. Was erzählt wird, läßt sich nicht skizzieren, ohne die überraschenden Wendungen zu verraten, die den Leser und die Leserin bei der Lektüre rasch in eine unerwartete, ständig wachsende Anteilnahme versetzten. Nur so viel sei verraten: Im Kern der Handlung geht es um den Wunsch des Malers Johann Wolfgang Cazotte, des »unwiderstehlichsten Don Juan seiner Zeit«, das junge Mädchen Ehrengard zu verführen: sie zur Erkenntnis ihrer selbst zu bringen. Aber Tania Blixen hat mit ihren Gestalten etwas anderes vor, als Cazotte es sich ausgemalt hat, und doch – in tieferem Sinne – eben dasselbe: Formung eines Schicksals.

        Princely power in the Dutch Republic

        Patronage and William Frederick of Nassau (1613–64)

        by Geert Janssen, Joseph Bergin, Penny Roberts, Bill Naphy

        Based on one of the richest surviving diaries of the Dutch Golden Age, Princely Power in the Dutch Republic recaptures the social world of William Frederick of Nassau (1613-1664). As a Stadholder and relative of the Prince of Orange, William Frederick was among the key players in a fragmented republican state system. This study offers a vivid analysis of his political strategies and reveals how unwritten codes of patronage guided his daily contacts and shaped his mental world. As a patron at his court and as a client of the Prince of Orange, William Frederick developed distinctive patronage roles, appropriate to different social spheres. By assessing these different roles, Janssen provides a unique insight into the ways in which a seventeenth-century nobleman negotiated and articulated clientage, friendship and corruption in his life. This study offers an in-depth analysis of political practices in the Dutch Republic and reconsiders the way in which patronage shaped early modern politics, affected religious divisions and framed social identities. ;

        Edward the Second

        Christopher Marlowe

        by Charles Forker

        The introduction to this edition contains an analysis of the first quarto (including new evidence of its original dating) and a reconsideration of the play's complex relation to the Shakespearean histories that preceded and followed it. Charles R. Forker offers a discussion of Marlowe's use of sources, and presents a new argument for the drama's five-act structure. He delves into the conflicting and controversial opinions concerning the genre and sexual politics of the play, and also includes a full record of the stage history. Forker has collated some 46 editions (including the important, rare and usually ignored editions of Broughton and Oxberry in 1818). The appendices provide substantive variants from the Broughton and Oxberry texts as well as extracts from the sources. ;
