        Cards of Love 1. Die Magie des Todes

        by Nena Tramountani, Moon Notes, Lea Melcher

        Giulietta, frisch mit der Schule fertig und leidenschaftlich an Tarotkarten interessiert, steht an einem entscheidenden Punkt in ihrem Leben. Ihre Welt gerät aus den Fugen, als sie die Nachricht vom Tod ihres geliebten Vaters erhält – ausgerechnet in Venedig, einer Stadt, vor der er sie stets gewarnt hatte. Entschlossen, die Wahrheit hinter seinem mysteriösen Unfalltod zu ergründen, ignoriert Giulietta die Warnungen ihres Vaters und zieht nach Venedig. Dort findet sie Unterschlupf im Grand Hotel ihres Onkels Vincenzo, doch schnell wird klar, dass in diesem Hotel und der Stadt selbst Geheimnisse lauern, die tiefer gehen als sie je vermutet hätte. Merkwürdige Schauspieler und der geheimnisvolle Malvolio ziehen sie immer tiefer in ein Netz aus Magie, Intrigen und einem jahrhundertealten Familiengeheimnis. In der atmosphärischen Kulisse Venedigs, wo Magie und Realität verschwimmen, kämpft Giulietta nicht nur darum, die Geheimnisse ihres eigenen Erbes zu entschlüsseln, sondern auch darum, sich selbst und ihre Fähigkeiten in der Tarotkunst zu finden. Ihre Suche führt sie auf einen gefährlichen Pfad, auf dem jede Entscheidung, jedes gezogene Tarotkarte sie näher an die Wahrheit hinter dem Tod ihres Vaters – und an die dunklen Geheimnisse ihrer Familie – bringt. Dabei ist nicht nur ihr eigenes Schicksal ungewiss, sondern auch das der Menschen, die sie zu lieben beginnt. Mit jeder Karte, die sie legt, offenbart sich eine neue Schicht der Verschwörung, die sie und die Stadt Venedig umgibt. Faszinierende Mischung aus Magie und Moderne, eingebettet in das atmosphärische Venedig, bietet eine einzigartige Kulisse für eine packende Geschichte. Die Kunst des Tarot spielt eine zentrale Rolle in dieser magischen Dilogie, verwebt mit einem jahrhundertealten Familiengeheimnis, das Leserinnen und Leser bis zur letzten Seite fesselt. Starke und tiefgründige Protagonistin, die im Kampf um Wahrheit und Selbstfindung über sich hinauswächst und für ihre Überzeugungen einsteht. Spannende und mysteriöse Handlung, die mit unerwarteten Wendungen und dunklen Geheimnissen die Grenzen zwischen Realität und Magie verwischt. Ein lebendiger Cast aus charismatischen Nebenfiguren und geheimnisvollen Schauspielern, die das Leserherz im Sturm erobern und für zusätzliche Spannung sorgen. Emotional geladene Storyline, die neben der fesselnden Hauptgeschichte auch Raum für erste Liebe und persönliche Rebellion gegen familiäre Erwartungen bietet. Band 1 einer mitreißenden Dilogie, die nicht nur Fantasy-Fans begeistern wird, sondern auch Leserinnen und Leser, die nach einer Geschichte mit Tiefgang und einer starken weiblichen Hauptfigur suchen.

        The Arctic in the British imagination 1818–1914

        by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie, Rob David

        The Arctic region has been the subject of much popular writing. This book considers nineteenth-century representations of the Arctic, and draws upon an extensive range of evidence that will allow the 'widest connections' to emerge from a 'cross-disciplinary analysis' using different methodologies and subject matter. It positions the Arctic alongside more thoroughly investigated theatres of Victorian enterprise. In the nineteenth century, most images were in the form of paintings, travel narratives, lectures given by the explorers themselves and photographs. The book explores key themes in Arctic images which impacted on subsequent representations through text, painting and photography. For much of the nineteenth century, national and regional geographical societies promoted exploration, and rewarded heroic endeavor. The book discusses images of the Arctic which originated in the activities of the geographical societies. The Times provided very low-key reporting of Arctic expeditions, as evidenced by its coverage of the missions of Sir John Franklin and James Clark Ross. However, the illustrated weekly became one of the main sources of popular representations of the Arctic. The book looks at the exhibitions of Arctic peoples, Arctic exploration and Arctic fauna in Britain. Late nineteenth-century exhibitions which featured the Arctic were essentially nostalgic in tone. The Golliwogg's Polar Adventures, published in 1900, drew on adult representations of the Arctic and will have confirmed and reinforced children's perceptions of the region. Text books, board games and novels helped to keep the subject alive among the young.

        Passing into the present

        Contemporary American fiction of racial and gender passing

        by Sinead Moynihan

        This book is the first full-length study of contemporary American fiction of passing. Its takes as its point of departure the return of racial and gender passing in the 1990s in order to make claims about wider trends in contemporary American fiction. The book accounts for the return of tropes of passing in fiction by Phillip Roth, Percival Everett, Louise Erdrich, Danzy Senna, Jeffrey Eugenides and Paul Beatty, by arguing meta-critical and meta-fictional tool. These writers are attracted to the trope of passing because passing narratives have always foregrounded the notion of textuality in relation to the (il)legibility of "black" subjects passing as white. The central argument of this book, then, is that contemporary narratives of passing are concerned with articulating and unpacking an analogy between passing and authorship. The title promises to inaugurate dialogue on the relationships between passing, postmodernism and authorship in contemporary American fiction.

        Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda, or Not the Miracle of Bern

        What if everything had been different in German football

        by Jörg Heinrich

        “Well, that’s football for you!” – football-related conventional wisdom when there’s nothing left to explain after a lucky win or unlucky defeat. But Jörg Heinrich, the renowned football journalist, is not satisfied with this platitude. “Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda”: in the 25 essays in this ball-smart book, bursting with esprit and wit, Jörg Heinrich addresses questions and topics that have never even been considered before, never mind answered. Such as: “What if Günter Netzer had not come on as a substitute in 1973?”, or “if Birgit Prinz had aimed better in the 1995 World Cup?”. “What if Mario Basler had been a non-smoker in 1999”, or “if SC Freiburg had fired their coach Christian Streich after relegation in 2015?”.

        The silence of Barbara Synge

        by Bill McCormack

        'The silence of Barbara Synge' provides a fascinating companion volume to Bill McCormack's acclaimed 'Fool of the family' (2000), a biography of the playwright J.M. Synge (1871-1909). Taking the alledged death of Mrs John Hatch (née Synge) in 1767 as a focal point, this book explores the varied strands of the Synge family tree in eighteenth and nineteenth century Ireland. Key events in the family's history are carefully documented, including a suicide in 1769 which is echoed in an early Synge play, the effects of the famine which influenced 'The playboy of the western world' in 1907, and the behaviour of Francis Synge at the time of the union. 'The silence of Barbara Synge' is a unique work of cultural enquiry, combining archival research, literary criticism, and religious and medical history to pull the strands together and relate them to the family's literary descendent J.M. Synge. ;

        Pasts at play

        Childhood encounters with history in British culture, 1750–1914

        by Rachel Bryant Davies, Barbara Gribling

        This collection brings together scholars from disciplines including Children's Literature, Classics, and History to develop fresh approaches to children's culture and the uses of the past. It charts the significance of historical episodes and characters during the long nineteenth-century (1750-1914), a critical period in children's culture. Boys and girls across social classes often experienced different pasts simultaneously, for purposes of amusement and instruction. The book highlights an active and shifting market in history for children, and reveals how children were actively involved in consuming and repackaging the past: from playing with historically themed toys and games to performing in plays and pageants. Each chapter reconstructs encounters across different media, uncovering the cultural work done by particular pasts and exposing the key role of playfulness in the British historical imagination.

        The imperial game

        by Andrew Thompson, John M. MacKenzie

        This anthology examines the fortunes of cricket in various colonies as the sport spread across the British Empire. It helps to explain why cricket was so successful, even in places like India, Pakistan and the West Indies where the Anglo-Saxon element remained in a small minority. It demonstrates, perhaps better than any other single work, how awesome was the power of cultural imperialism. Even when former subjects threw off the political yoke of the Europeans, they still adhered tenaciously to the sporting and recreational models that the imperialists had introduced. 'The Imperial Game' provides an invaluable insight into how cricket developed powerful social, cultural and even political connotations in a colonial environment. This is a fascinating study of cricket as a cultural phenomenon, and traces its changing meaning in all the continents in which Britain once exercised power. The book is a collection of essays by six of the world's leading scholars in the field of sports history, and will be of value not onle to students examining the historical sociology of sport, but also to those with a general interest in social history. This study will also appeal to cricket enthusiasts the world over.
