September 2016Werke
by Nescio, Christiane Kuby, Herbert Post
Sie haben große Pläne, sie wollen raus, wollen es ganz anders machen als die etablierten Bürger, sie schwadronieren, trinken, rauchen und lesen Bücher. Irgendwann werden sie klüger. Nur Bavink nicht. Bavink dreht durch. Die Helden in diesem Band sind junge Bohemiens im Amsterdam des beginnenden 20. Jahrhunderts, unbezähmbare Idealisten, die die Welt des Geldes und der Ordnung verachten und ihren eigenen Weg suchen. Der führt nicht immer zum Erfolg – »doch bevor wir ein Leichentuch des Pessimismus über diesen verfehlten Elan werfen, sollten wir bedenken, dass aus ihm großartige Erzählungen entstanden sind, in denen sowohl der Enthusiasmus als auch das Scheitern ... auf wundersame Weise lebendig geblieben sind.« (Cees Nooteboom) Keiner hat lakonischer und schöner über Draufgängertum und Sehnsüchte junger Menschen, über ihre wilden Träume und ihre Verletzlichkeit geschrieben als Nescio. Von ihm, dem seriösen Geschäftsmann, dem genauen Gegenteil seiner Figuren, wurden zu seinen Lebzeiten nur eine Handvoll Erzählungen veröffentlicht, die bis heute von ihrer Kraft nichts verloren haben.

2025Why Be a Christian Today?
by Elisabeth Zoll / Thomas Seiterich (eds.)
The exciting texts and reports by professing Christians offer a fresh perspective for all those who have cultivated a Christian spirituality for many years. However, the book also provides easy access for those who are newly interested in the Christian faith. There are probably as many professions of Christian faith as there are believers in the world. But what do Christians think and how have they been moulded? Elisabeth Zoll and Thomas Seiterich have compiled very personal ideas about the Christian faith in this book. When selecting the contributors, the editors deliberately chose not to include people with church offices or specialised theologians. Irrespective of church policy issues and church scandals, the contributors have provided insights into their path to faith.

Literature & Literary StudiesMarch 2025The Catholicism of literature in the age of the Book of Common Prayer
Poetry, plays, works, 1558-1689
by Thomas Rist
Offering a complete reading of English Literature throughout 1558-1689, this book demonstrates the continuity of Roman Catholicism in English Literature from the accession of Elizabeth I to the deposing of James II. Rist shows that poetry and plays promoted Roman Catholic ideas in a Biblicist age which established the Church of England through the Book of Common Prayer. From the very idea of literary works to chapters on the Eucharist, Purgatory, Christian worship and the Virgin Mary, Rist joins together major and minor authors of the era to present English Literature afresh. Important literary figures include William Shakespeare, Ben Jonson, Thomas Middleton, Queen Henrietta Maria, John Donne, John Dryden, Robert Herrick, Margaret Cavendish and Aphra Behn.

The ArtsSeptember 2024The renewal of post-war Manchester
Planning, architecture and the state
by Richard Brook
A compelling account of the project to transform post-war Manchester, revealing the clash between utopian vision and compromised reality. Urban renewal in Britain was thrilling in its vision, yet partial and incomplete in its implementation. For the first time, this deep study of a renewal city reveals the complex networks of actors behind physical change and stagnation in post-war Britain. Using the nested scales of region, city and case-study sites, the book explores the relationships between Whitehall legislation, its interpretation by local government planning officers and the on-the-ground impact through urban architectural projects. Each chapter highlights the connections between policy goals, global narratives and the design and construction of cities. The Cold War, decolonialisation, rising consumerism and the oil crisis all feature in a richly illustrated account of architecture and planning in post-war Manchester.

Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2010The Society for Irish Church Missions to the Roman Catholics, 1849–1950
by Miriam Moffitt
This work details traces the origins, development and impact of the proselytizing organization, the Society for Irish Church Missions to the Roman Catholics, from its Protestant foundation during the famine of 1845-47 to the early decades of Irish Free State. It argues that the foundation of this ostensibly religious society was also underpinned by social, political, and economic factors and demonstrates that by the mid 1850s the mission operated on a very substantial scale. Moffitt examines the mission's role in the shifting political realities of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The impact of this inter-faith power struggle and its legacy to the present day are explored by examining contemporary sources, folklore evidence, and the depiction of proselytizing missions in both Catholic and Protestant denomination literature and fictional writings. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesApril 2026Converting Ireland
Religious education, language and colonialism
by Karina Bénazech Wendling
Karina Bénazech Wendling offers a re-assessment of 'souperism'-the long-debated claim that food was used to convert Irish Catholics to Protestantism during the Great Famine. Focusing on the Irish Society for Promoting the Education of the Native Irish through their Own Language, the first group labeled 'soupers' in 1841, she uncovers a more complex picture. Rather than a mere tool of British cultural imperialism, the Society had a deep engagement with the Irish language and Bible translation, while also encouraging religious conversions in the West. The book explores the Society's role in Ireland's religious and political landscape, the rise of Catholic counter-missions, and nationalist resistance. Offering fresh insights into Ireland's religious history and global missionary movements, this book is essential for scholars of Irish studies, interdenominational relations, and education in Ireland.

March 2008Father Browns Weisheit
Erzählungen
by Gilbert Keith Chesterton, Hanswilhelm Haefs
Man kennt ihn aus vielen Verfilmungen, den kleinen, rundlichen und sanftmütigen Priester: Father Brown. Aber kennen Sie auch die packenden Erzählungen, die den Filmen als Grundlagen dienten? Hier sind sie! Father Brown löst seine Fälle mit Menschenkenntnis und Empathie: Vorurteilslosigkeit, Toleranz, Beobachtungsgabe und Intuition sind seine Hilfsmittel. Der sympathische Ermittler im Dienste des Herrn erobert seine Leserinnen und Leser mit Charme und Witz. Gilbert Keith Chesterton, 1874 geboren, starb 1936. Er war Romancier, Historiker und Essayist und hat ein umfangreiches Werk hinterlassen. Die hinreißenden Father-Brown-Geschichten erscheinen hier in der kongenialen Übersetzung von Hanswilhelm Haefs.
