Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2023Love and revolution
A politics for the deep commons
by Matt York
Based on award-winning research, Love and revolution brings classical and contemporary anarchist thought into a mutually beneficial dialogue with a global cross-section of ecological, anti-capitalist, feminist and anti-racist activists - discussing real-life examples of the loving-caring relations that underpin many contemporary struggles. Such a (r)evolutionary love is discovered to be a common embodied experience among the activists contributing to this collective vision, manifested as a radical solidarity, as political direct action, as long-term processes of struggle, and as a deeply relational more-than-human ethics. This book provides an essential resource for all those interested in building a free society grounded in solidarity and care, and offers a timely contribution to contemporary movement discourse.

PHILOSOPHER’S LOVE – FROM SOCRATES TO FOUCAULT
by Manfred Geier
Love is a long-burning issue of philosophy. From antiquity to the present day, people have philosophised about love, which reveals itself in a variety of forms and norms. But what really happens when philosophers not only philosophise, but also love, from the initial games of seduction to the culmination of sexual lust? With the aid of eleven biographical case studies, from Socrates and Augustine to Martin Heidegger and Michael Foucault, Manfred Geier, author of several biographies on philosophers, documents how without their erotic lust, the philosophers would not have become searchers of wisdom.

March 2019Lola
Thriller
by Melissa Scrivner Love, Thomas Wörtche, Sven Koch, Andrea Stumpf
South Central, L.A. Lola Vasquez ist klein, zierlich, unscheinbar, anscheinend eine chica unter vielen in der Latino-Gang The Crenshaw Six. Die Gang versucht, möglichst unauffällig zu agieren, und zu dieser Strategie in einer Mucho-macho-Welt gehört auch, dass Lola nicht sichtbar wird, denn in Wahrheit ist sie die Chefin der Gang, ebenso brillant wie rücksichtslos. Die Karten werden neu gemischt, als sie in einen Krieg zwischen einem etablierten Großdealer, einem expansionswilligen mexikanischen Kartell und einem neuen Großlieferanten gezogen wird. Auch die Polizei und die Staatsanwaltschaft mischen mit – eine Gang wie jede andere. Lolas Achillesferse ist ihre Familie, ihre Crack-Mutter und ihr nicht allzu schlauer Bruder. Als es hart auf hart kommt, muss Lola ein paar Entscheidungen fällen, die alles andere als leichtfallen …

September 2020It was always love
by Hotel, Nikola
She’s had enough of men, but he can’t get enough of her... Away. Just get out of here. That's all Aubree thinks about when she gets kicked out of college after a party. She buys an incredibly old car, throws the few things she owns into the trunk and flees to her best friend Ivy in New Hampshire. There, all she wants is to pull the blanket over her head and think of nothing else. Not about that night. Not about the party. And most of all, not that picture that's been circulating on the Internet ever since. But it doesn't work. Because instead of her friend, she meets Noah, Ivy's stepbrother. With his impulsive but surprisingly sensitive nature, Noah evokes feelings in her that she doesn't need right now. And which, nevertheless, sweep her away like a storm... Second volume of a romantic and exciting dilogy with 20 lavishly illustrated hand-lettered pages by Carolin Magunia. Including a playlist that can be found on Spotify and contains songs which match perfectly with the story! It was always you (Vol. 1) entered the Spiegel bestseller list immediately after its publication. Both titles can be read separately. For all fans of Mona Kasten, Laura Kneidl and Kelly Moran! 30.000 copies of vol. 1 + 2 were sold since June 2020!

Humanities & Social SciencesMarch 2009The subject of love
Hélène Cixous and the feminine divine
by Sal Renshaw
The Subject of Love: Hélène Cixous and the Feminine Divine is about abundant, generous, other-regarding love. In the history of Western ideas of love, such a configuration has been inseparable from our ideas about divinity and the sacred; often reserved only for God; and rarely thought of as a human achievement. This book is a substantial engagement with her philosophies of love, inviting the reader to reflect on the conditions of subjectivity that just might open us to something like a divine love of the other. Renshaw follows this thread in this genealogy of abundant love: the thread that connects the subject of love from 5th century B.C.E. Greece and Plato, to the 20th century protestant theology of agapic love of Anders Nygren, to the late 20th century poetico-philosophy of Hélène Cixous. This study will be of particular interest to academics and students of the history of gender, cultural studies, criticism and gender studies ;

The Family of Love
By Lording Barry
by Sophie Tomlinson
The Family of Love charts a successful love intrigue between the cash-strapped Gerardine, and Maria, the sequestered niece of the mercenary Doctor Glister. Their romance unfolds against the dissection of two citizen marriages, the Glisters' and the Purges'. Mistress Purge attends Familist meetings independently, arousing her husband's suspicions about her marital fidelity. Two libertines, Lipsalve and Gudgeon, go in search of sex and solubility (freedom from constipation), receiving more than they bargain for in respect of the latter. This scholarly edition of Family of Love marks the first occasion on which the comedy is attributed to Lording Barry in print. It brings together literary and historical discussion with a thorough analysis of the play's disputed authorship. Tomlinson highlights Barry's rich vein of burlesque humour in a comedy that combines magic, a trunk, and a mock-court session with vigorous colloquial language.
