Ärzte, Pfaffen, Braunschweiger Herzöge, Huren und Bauern: Keiner ist gegen den Witz und die Dreistigkeit Eulenspiegels gefeit. In der Figur des Eulenspiegel schlägt der Autor einen Bogen von den Märchen unserer Kindheit zu den Alpträumen unserer Gegenwart.Werner Fritschs EULEN:SPIEGEL ist ein liederliches Possenspiel, eine verhurte Narretei, eine Traumlandschaft, ein Zauberbogen.Uraufführung am 6. Januar 2002 am Staatstheater Braunschweig; Regie: Ernst M. Binder. CHROMA Farbenlehre für ChamäleonsManila, 1963, in einem Hotelzimmer. Die letzten Stunden im Leben des Gustaf Gründgens. Er ist nicht allein. Mephisto ist bei ihm. Gründgens hat diese Rolle 1932 zum letzten Mal gespielt. Die äußere Gestalt, die Maske, die er ihm zehnjahre später in seiner eigenen Inszenierung gab und die er fortan beibehielt, hat den teuflischen Begleiter des Faust zur zentralen Bühnenfigur des letzten Jahrhunderts gemacht und seine Person unauflöslich mit dieser Erscheinung verbunden. Dieses - sein - Geschöpf sitzt ihm nun gegenüber, sitzt ihm im Nacken, begleitet und treibt ihn gleichermaßen durch den letzten Film am Ende seines Lebens. Gründgens hat den Faust nie gespielt. Auf seiner letzten Reise werden die Rollen getauscht. Im Angesicht des Todes erscheint ihm Mephisto als jüngeres Alter ego, das ihm verweigert, sich weiter hinter seiner Maske zu verstecken.Uraufführung am 9. September 2000 auf der Expo Hannover (Produktion des Staatstheaters Darmstadt, Regie Thomas Krupa). Die Inszenierung wurde zum Berliner Theatertreffen 2001 eingeladen. TV-Aufzeichnung durch ZDF /3Sat.

Literature & Literary StudiesMarch 2012The Library and archive collections of the University of Aberdeen
An introduction and description
by Edited by Iain Beaven, Peter Davidson and Jane Stevenson
This volume commences with the the books and manuscripts given at the foundation of King's College in 1495, continues with the collections which accrued to Marischal College from its foundation in 1593, and comes together with the fusion of the two colleges in 1860 in the modern University of Aberdeen. From the beginning, the scope and focus of the University was international, and its developing collections represent a microcosm of the world of knowledge as it changed over the centuries. The University Colleges of Aberdeen have a distinct intellectual tradition: pragmatically tolerant in times of persecution; dissident from the religious and political policies of the Lowlands; looking outwards to the world of northern Europe and to the territories of the Jacobite diaspora. The book introduces one of the oldest continually-evolving academic library collections of the Anglophone world, surveys its history and includes a series of studies of items or collections of particular interest. ;

The Aldine Edition of the Ancient Greek Epistolographers: Roots and Legacy
by Julene Abad Del Vecchio
This special issue of the Bulletin of the John Rylands Library is devoted to the Aldine edition of the Ancient Greek epistolographers. Published in Venice in 1499 by Aldus Manutius, the Aldine edition was the first printed edition of most of the thirty-six Greek letter collections that it contains. As such, it embodies the intersection between the medieval epistolary anthologies that predated it and the printed editions of Greek epistolographic collections that followed, which were primarily based on its text. In recent decades, the Aldien edition has been the subject of important works, which have sought to analyse its contents and sources. This issue explores the Aldine edition from three perspectives: its relationship to the epistolary collections found in medieval manuscripts, its relationship to the printed editions that followed it and its legacy and value for the modern scholar studying Ancient Greek epistolography.
