Die Kunst der Unterwerfung
by S.D. Coverly
Eine verbotene Lehre wird zu einer gemeinsamen Sehnsucht. Mitten in ihrer Abschlussprüfung erfährt Ellsbeth, dass ihre Schwester Bertie sich das Leben genommen hat. Mit gebrochenem Herzen und misslungenem Abschluss schreibt sie sich an der Newlyn Universität ein – dem letzten Ort, an dem Bertie gesehen wurde. Um mehr über ihre Todesumstände zu erfahren, infiltriert Ellsbeth den begehrtesten Kurs der ganzen Institution: Prof. Rawlins Prinzipien der arkanen Mechaniken. Dem attraktiven Professor fällt sie bereits in der ersten Unterrichtsstunde ins Auge. Zwischen intimen Nachrichten und einer unwiderstehlichen Anziehung entflammt ein gemeinsames Interesse, das das Feuer zwischen Ihnen endgültig entfacht: die verbotene Kunst der Gedankenkontrolle. Freiwillig gibt sich Ellsbeth seinen heimlichen Ritualen hin. Doch es ist ein gefährliches Spiel. Denn das ist nicht das erste Tabu, das Rawlins gebrochen hat – und es wird auch nicht das Letzte sein. Heiße Gedankenspiele und verbotene Magie : Ein sündhaftes Arrangement zwischen einer Magiestudentin, die versucht, den Tod ihrer Schwester aufzuklären, und ihrem Professor, der nicht die Finger von ihr lassen kann.

Biography & True StoriesMarch 2022Body Work
The Radical Power of Personal Narrative
by Melissa Febos,
In this bold and exhilarating mix of memoir and writing guide, Melissa Febos tackles the emotional, psychological, and physical work of writing intimately while offering an utterly fresh examination of the storyteller's life and the challenges it presents. How do we write about the relationships that have formed us? How do we describe our bodies, their desires and traumas? What does it mean to have your writing, or living, dismissed as "navel-gazing"-or else hailed as "so brave, so raw"? And to whom, in the end, do our most intimate stories belong? Drawing on her journey from aspiring writer to acclaimed author and writing professor-via addiction and recovery, sex work and academia-Melissa Febos has created a captivating guide to the writing life, and a brilliantly unusual exploration of subjectivity, privacy, and the power of divulgence. Candid and inspiring, Body Work will empower readers and writers alike, offering ideas-and occasional notes of caution-to anyone who has ever hoped to see their true self reflecting back from the open page.

Literature & Literary StudiesOctober 2009Euphues: The Anatomy of Wit and Euphues and His England John Lyly
An annotated, modern-spelling edition
by Paul Edmondson, Martin White
John Lyly's Euphues: The Anatomy of Wit and Euphues and his England, created a literary sensation in their own age, and had a profound influence on Elizabethan prose. This modern-spelling edition of the two works, the first for nearly a century, is designed to allow the twenty-first century reader access to this culturally significant text and to explore the fascination that it exerted. Attuned to the needs of both students and specialists, the text is edited from the earliest complete witnesses, is richly annotated, and facilitates an understanding of Lyly's narrative technique by distinguishing typographically between narrative levels. The introduction explores the relationship between the dramatic and non-dramatic work, locating Lyly's highly influential plays in a wider context and Euphues' Latin poem in praise of Elizabeth I, translated for the first time, is discussed in an Appendix. A work of primary importance for students of Renaissance prose, this edition complements the on-going publication of Lyly's dramatic works in The Revels Plays. ;

Humanities & Social SciencesDecember 2022Class, work and whiteness
Race and settler colonialism in Southern Rhodesia, 1919–79
by Nicola Ginsburgh
This book offers the first comprehensive history of white workers from the end of the First World War to Zimbabwean independence in 1980. It reveals how white worker identity was constituted, examines the white labouring class as an ethnically and nationally heterogeneous formation comprised of both men and women, and emphasises the active participation of white workers in the ongoing and contested production of race. White wage labourers' experiences, both as exploited workers and as part of the privileged white minority, offer insight into how race and class co-produced one another and how boundaries fundamental to settler colonialism were regulated and policed. Based on original research conducted in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK, this book offers a unique theoretical synthesis of work on gender, whiteness studies, labour histories, settler colonialism, Marxism, emotions and the New African Economic History.

MedicineThe Anatomy of Time – Self-Management for Doctors
A Guide to Effectively Prepare Time Slots
by Alexander Ghanem
Doctors fnd themselves caught between the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulflling private life. Previously, there was no selfhelp guide focused on how to effectively improve the wellbeing of physicians (and patients). Doctors fnd themselves caught between the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulflling private life. Previously, there was no selfhelp guide focused on how to effectively improve the wellbeing of physicians (and patients). Over the course of their careers, physicians often lose momentum, become exhausted and subsequently lack meaning in their life. This can even culminate in burnout. To prevent this, it is important to continually refocus, adapting your goals to circumstances. With this in mind, time management for physicians becomes more than just normal planning.
