The ArtsFebruary 2022"I am Jugoslovenka!"
Feminist performance politics during and after Yugoslav Socialism
by Jasmina Tumbas, Amelia Jones, Marsha Meskimmon
"I am Jugoslovenka" argues that queer-feminist artistic and political resistance were paradoxically enabled by socialist Yugoslavia's unique history of patriarchy and women's emancipation. Spanning performance and conceptual art, video works, film and pop music, lesbian activism and press photos of female snipers in the Yugoslav wars, the book analyses feminist resistance in a range of performative actions that manifest the radical embodiment of Yugoslavia's anti-fascist, transnational and feminist legacies. It covers celebrated and lesser-known artists from the 1970s to today, including Marina Abramovic, Sanja Ivekovic, Vlasta Delimar, Tanja Ostojic, Selma Selman and Helena Janecic, along with music legends Lepa Brena and Esma Redzepova. "I am Jugoslovenka" tells a unique story of women's resistance through the intersection of feminism, socialism and nationalism in East European visual culture.

September 2023Die leeren Schränke
Das Debüt der Nobelpreisträgerin – erstmals auf Deutsch
by Annie Ernaux, Sonja Finck
An einem Sonntag im Jahr 1961 sitzt die zwanzigjährige Literaturstudentin Denise Lesur in ihrem Zimmer und wartet – dass ihr Körper die Abtreibung vollzieht, die eine Engelmacherin im Verborgenen eingeleitet hat. Der gebildete, bourgeoise, selbstgewisse Marc hat Denise auf die Nachricht der Schwangerschaft hin direkt verlassen. Und das Milieu, das er verkörpert, hätte sich auch nie ganz in ihrem Körper beheimaten können. Während sie also wartet, denkt sie über ihre Kindheit und Jugend nach: Zerrissen zwischen dem Elternhaus – obgleich stolze Épicerie-Besitzer sind ihre Eltern den bescheidenen, ländlichen Verhältnissen der Herkunft nie wirklich entronnen – und den Mitschülerinnen jener besseren Schulen, auf die ihre guten Leistungen sie befördert hatten, fühlt sich Denise von beiden Seiten stets abgestoßen. Vulgär und wütend, voller Ablehnung gegen die bürgerlichen Angepasstheiten – Annie Ernaux umkreist in Die leeren Schränke ein frühes einschneidendes Ereignis, das ihr gesamtes Leben prägen wird. Und erfindet dafür eine völlig neuartige, aufwühlende literarische Form.

April 2019Glück am Morgen
Roman
by Betty Smith, Eike Schönfeld
Annie liebt Carl. Und Carl liebt Annie. Und so verlässt die Achtzehnjährige heimlich die Wohnung ihrer Mutter in Brooklyn und zieht in die kleine Universitätsstadt im Mittleren Westen, wo Carl Jura studiert. Sie lassen sich gegen den Willen ihrer Eltern trauen und genießen das Glück, endlich beisammen zu sein, auch wenn der Alltag Schatten wirft: Sie müssen mit wenig zurechtkommen, Carl hat kaum Zeit, Annie dafür umso mehr. Doch das Leben meint es gut mit ihnen, Annie findet neue Freunde, Carl bessere Nebenjobs, Annie besucht klammheimlich Literaturseminare und hat erste kleine Erfolge als Schriftstellerin. Und obwohl sie wenig besitzen, fühlen sie sich reich, denn sie wissen, worauf es wirklich ankommt: Sie haben einander. Nachdem Betty Smith uns in Ein Baum wächst in Brooklyn mit der Geschichte der kleinen Francie verzaubert hat, beglückt sie uns nun mit einem wunderbar leichten Roman über das große Glück, zu lieben und geliebt zu werden.

With a zip and a zoom the Little Lady opens her umbrella and up and away they go on the greatest mountain “salafari” of all time! But then something weird happens to the Little Lady: first her feet start to tickle, then her fine hiking boots start to pinch, and her jacket seems to be shrinking! She sees with horror that she is starting to grow. What can Lilly, Charley and she do to stop it?

January 2020Tuberculosis, Third Edition
by Alan Hecht, D.C.
Tuberculosis is a serious infection caused most commonly by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacterium or one of three other organisms of the Mycobacterium genus. Tuberculosis primarily affects the lungs, but the infection can attack any part of the body. If left untreated, tuberculosis can cause lung damage, meningitis, and even death; the World Health Organization reported 1.5 million deaths due to tuberculosis in 2018. Those at highest risk for tuberculosis include those with weakened immune systems and those in areas of the world with poor nutrition and poor access to health care. Most cases of tuberculosis can be treated with a combination of medications that are taken for several months, but failure by many people to fully follow their course of treatment has led to the emergence of drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis bacteria. Tuberculosis, Third Edition covers the history, causes, and treatments of this potentially deadly disease. Chapters include: Tuberculosis Throughout Time Robert Koch, Selman Waksman, and the Near Defeat of Tuberculosis The Tuberculosis Bacterium Consumption: What Happens Once You Become Infected Transmission from Organism to Organism The Immune Response to Tuberculosis Infection Screening for and Diagnosis of Tuberculosis The BCG Vaccine Treatment of Tuberculosis I: Sanatoriums and Early Drug Treatments Treatment of Tuberculosis II: Modern Drug Therapy The Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Tuberculosis

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2017Rethinking settler colonialism
History and memory in Australia, Canada, Aotearoa New Zealand and South Africa
by Annie Coombes
Rethinking settler colonialism focuses on the long history of contact between indigenous peoples and the white colonial communities who settled in Australia, Aotearoa New Zealand, Canada and South Africa. It interrogates how histories of colonial settlement have been mythologised, narrated and embodied in public culture in the twentieth century (through monuments, exhibitions and images) and charts some of the vociferous challenges to such histories that have emerged over recent years. Despite a shared familiarity with cultural and political institutions, practices and policies amongst the white settler communities, the distinctiveness which marked these constituencies as variously, 'Australian', 'South African', 'Canadian' or 'New Zealander', was fundamentally contingent upon their relationship to and with the various indigenous communities they encountered. In each of these countries these communities were displaced, marginalised and sometimes subjected to attempted genocide through the colonial process. Recently these groups have renewed their claims for greater political representation and autonomy. The essays and artwork in this book insist that an understanding of the political and cultural institutions and practices which shaped settler-colonial societies in the past can provide important insights into how this legacy of unequal rights can be contested in the present. It will be of interest to those studying the effects of colonial powers on indigenous populations, and the legacies of imperial rule in postcolonial societies.
