Do You Hear the Elephants Roaring?
A Book for Children Whose Parents Regularly Argue
by Joan Schaaf, Marie Frerich, Johannes Hauck, Lea Klein-Reesink, Leonie Zahn
“The little jumping mouse wakes up quite frightened. Her parents are arguing again, so loudly that she can’t help but hear.” That is how the story of the little jumping mouse begins. The conflict between her parents makes her very miserable and sad. The mouse decides to leave home. Walking with the wise eagle through the savannah, she observes different animal families who are also having arguments. They discover that no argument is like the other, and the two of them fi nd out that it is normal and sometimes important to argue, but that certain rules must be followed, so that at the end of the day everyone can get along, and nobody suffers from the quarrels. This book is intended to make it easier for affected children to understand their situation and to deal with it. It shows that there are different types of quarrels, and that sometimes it is even okay to argue. For: • children of elementary school age (between 6 and 12 years of age) who are suffering because of their parents’ quarreling• parents, relatives• therapists

Adorno
Eine Bildmonographie
by Theodor W. Adorno Archiv, Henri Lonitz, Christoph Gödde, Gabriele Lieselotte Ewenz, Michael Schwarz
Eine Vielzahl von bisher unpublizierten Texten, Bildern und Dokumenten eröffnet eine neue und unerwartete Perspektive auf das Leben und Werk Theodor W. Adornos. Von den frühen Zeugnissen aus der Kindheit, wie etwa einem bisher unbekannten Jugendtagebuch, das transkribiert und z.T. faksimiliert vorgelegt wird, über Dokumente aus seinen Studien- und Exiljahren bis hin zur Rückkehr nach Frankfurt und seiner Arbeit am Institut für Sozialforschung und an der Frankfurter Universität verfolgt der Band das Leben Adornos am Leitfaden von überaus anschaulichen, prägnanten, im besten Sinne »sprechenden« Zeugnissen. Neben einem weiteren Tagebuch aus dem Jahr 1949 finden sich zahlreiche, hier erstmals veröffentlichte Briefe, Notizen, Kompositionen, Photographien und Skizzen aus seinem Nachlaß.

Three seventeenth-century plays on women and performance
by Paul Edmondson, Hero Chalmers, Julie Sanders, Sophie Tomlinson, Martin White
This is a ground-breaking edition of three seventeenth-century plays that all engage in diverse and exciting ways with questions of gender and performance. The collection, edited by three pioneering scholars of elite female culture and early modern drama, makes the texts of three much-discussed plays - John Fletcher's The Wild-Goose Chase, James Shirley's The Bird in a Cage and Margaret Cavendish's The Convent of Pleasure - available together in a full scholarly edition for the first time. The Wild Goose Chase (1621) and The Bird in a Cage (1633) were both performed in the commercial London theatres in the Jacobean and Caroline periods respectively. The Convent of Pleasure (1668) is a so-called 'closet' drama, designed primarily for reading but drawing on a tradition of aristocratic theatricals. In a wide-ranging co-authored introduction to the volume, the editors explore the concerns of these playtexts in relation to contemporary debates surrounding popular festivity and anti-theatricalism, as well as the agency of elite female culture in the Stuart period and the emergence of the professional female actor in the Restoration. The volume will be an invaluable teaching and research tool for students and scholars of early modern drama, women's writing and performance studies more generally, as well as providing a rich sourcebook for the reader interested in seventeenth-century theatrical culture. ;
