      • Institut d'Estudis Baleàrics

        One of our main goals is the consolidation of the Balearic Islands as a structured cultural market, the promotion of the islands' music, performing arts, literature and visual arts by means of grants, international actions and formative seminars in cultural affairs. The Institut d’Estudis Baleàrics coordinates, alone or in partnership with other departments of the Government of the Balearic Islands, the Institut Ramon Llull or the Institut Català d'Empreses Culturals, the institutional presence of the Balearic Islands in strategic events for the promotion of our culture overseas.   Every year, our area of literature, thought, comics and illustration calls for grants to cover travelling and accommodation expenses of Balearic authors, and expenses for publishing books and producing promotional material for Balearic authors. Please, check our calls on our webpage for literature grants.

        The Little Christmas Engine

        by Anna Ruhe/Igor Lange

        It’s winter in the pleasure park. The Little Engine is dreaming of Christmas, as he does every year. It would be so nice to see a real Christmas for himself. Suddenly something terrible happens up in the sky: Father Christmas comes crashing down to earth with his overloaded sleigh. Fortunately, no one is hurt, but the sleigh is broken. This is the Little Engine’s chance. He makes Father Christmas a great offer – and so he saves this year’s Christmas.

        Bloody Weekend. Neun Jugendliche. Drei Tage. Ein Opfer

        by Bennett, M.A.

        Greer will eigentlich nicht dazugehören. Sie genießt es geradezu, Außenseiterin an dem altehrwürdigen Internat St. Aiden zu sein. Sie folgt zwar den unausgesprochenen Regeln der Schule - kein Handy, kein Internet, kein Plastik. Doch sie weiß: Zu den "Medievals", der herrschenden Clique um den reichen Henry de Waldencourt, wird sie nie gehören. Als sie die begehrte Einladung erhält, ein Jagd-Wochenende auf Henrys Anwesen zu verbringen, fühlt sich Greer wider Willen geschmeichelt und sagt zu. Doch vor Ort wird schnell klar, dass es um weit mehr geht als um eine bloße Jagd auf Hasen und Hirsche. Greer und zwei weitere Jugendliche kämpfen schon bald um ihr Überleben in der Wildnis. Und die Jagd ist erst der Anfang.

        The Spanish Tragedy

        Thomas Kyd

        by David Bevington

        The "revenge" play became the most durable and commercially successful type of drama on the Elizabethan stage. This example by Thomas Kyd, who was one of the originators of the genre, brings to life the intrigues of the Spanish court, dramatically juxtaposing romantic passion with sudden violent death and clandestine politics. The ghost of Dan Andrea and his guide Revenge observe the dark and bloody action throughout, provoking questions about the nature of the human condition. ;

        Making peace with the past?

        Memory, trauma and the Irish troubles

        by Graham Dawson

        This book explores the psychic, cultural and political ramifications of memory within the Irish Troubles. It investigates the traumatic impact of the violence perpetrated since 1969; the antagonistic cultural narratives of memory fashioned and mobilised in this context within public and private arenas; and the conflicts, paradoxes and contradictions involved in 'coming to terms with the past' both before and during the Irish peace process initiated in 1993-94. The study focuses on personal and collective remembrance within two particular locations: the Unionist communities along the Irish Border, and nationalist Derry. It traces the formation from below of competing public narratives, one concerned with the 'ethnic cleansing' of Protestants by the Irish Republican Army, the other with British state violence on Bloody Sunday; and analyses their subjective roots in specific experiences of fear and loss, their role in ideological struggle, and their complicated relation to private, familial and individual remembering. ;

        Death lurks in the shadows Who are you? Hamburg Criminal Psychologist Dr. Evelin Wolf wonders as she examines the severely disturbed homeless man with the conspicuous scar across his face.

Shortly thereafter, Hamburg is shaken by a series of murders unparalleled in cruelty and sadism. The perverted killer draws a bloody trail across the Hanseatic city and links it with a clear message to Alex and Evelin: Revenge. Alex and Evelin work feverishly to solve both cases. In the process, they make a fatal mistake. And the killer exploits it mercilessly…

        by Laura Labas, Leonie Landa,

        Crashing into You. Unwiderstehliche Romantic Comedy mit Tempo, Witz und ganz viel Herz  Alles nimmt seinen Anfang, als die 20-jährige New Yorker Mathematik-Studentin Shiloh auf dem Weg zur Uni einem gestürzten Fahrradfahrer hilft. Zum Dank lädt Miles sie in das schicke Hotel in Brooklyn ein, wo er um die Hand seiner Freundin anhalten will. Das edle Büfett kann sich die chronisch unterfinanzierte Shiloh nicht entgehen lassen. Aber Miles wird von seiner Freundin eiskalt abserviert, und so lässt er den Abend mit Shiloh ausklingen. Wieso die Honeymoon-Suite ungenutzt lassen? Die Wege der zwei – die es bei allen Unterschieden beide nicht gerade leicht haben mit ihren Eltern – trennen sich wieder. Aber zum Glück sind da ja noch der Zufall und die Stadt New York ...  Ungekürzt gelesen von Leonie Landa

        by Roxann Hill, Paul Wagle, Rebecca Steinberg, John Julian, Nicholas Mockridge, LiveLive Media GmbH, Torsten Schwiemann, Alexios Saskalidis

        Some deserve to live. Others deserve to die. A lunar eclipse hovers above Hamburg and bathes houses and streets in an unearthly light. In the exclusive district of Blankenese, four men are brutally murdered in the basement of a villa. Only the granddaughter of the owner survives the bloody massacre. Severely traumatized and completely listless, she is found sitting in the middle of the corpses. She cannot remember anything. Assistant District Attorney Alex Gutenberg, who has to struggle with a number of personal issues himself, asks the criminal psychologist Dr. Evelin Wolf for support. When Evelin succeeds in penetrating the buried memories of the key witness piece by piece, she and Alex begin to disclose not only the motives for the massacre, but also the unimaginable extent of cruelty and depravity behind it. And Alex suddenly finds himself confronted with his own guilt-ridden past...
