by Rebecca Stead, Wendy Mass, Ulrike Köbele
Cosy Krimi trifft Buchzauber: Auf den Spuren eines geheimnisvollen Katers, einer Geisterbibliothekarin und eines wendungsreichen Rätsels Eines Morgens taucht ein Schränkchen mit gebrauchten Büchern vor Evans Schule auf – eine kleine Freiluftbibliothek! Bewacht wird sie von einem freundlichen, rot getigerten Kater namens Mortimer. Evan nimmt zwei Bücher mit nach Hause und findet alte Ausleihscheine darin. Gab es früher etwa eine richtige Bibliothek in der Stadt? Warum ist sie nicht mehr da? Evans Vater weicht seinen Fragen aus und auch die anderen Erwachsenen scheinen etwas zu verbergen. Zusammen mit seinem besten Freund Rafi begibt sich Evan auf die Spur der verschwundenen Bibliothek. Dabei kreuzt der geheimnisvolle Kater immer wieder den Weg der beiden. Mortimer scheint auf ganz besondere Weise mit der Geschichte der Bibliothek verbunden zu sein. Was Evan schließlich herausfindet, stellt nicht nur sein eigenes Leben auf den Kopf, es bringt auch eine Wahrheit ans Licht, die ihre Stadt für immer verändern wird. Der New-York-Times-Bestseller und #1 Indie Bestseller erzählt von Büchern und Freundschaften, die uns ein Leben lang begleiten. Eine herzerwärmende Geschichte ab 9 Jahren zum Gemeinsam- und Selberlesen. Kurze Kapitel lassen die Seiten vorbeifliegen und mit jeder neuen Entdeckung steigt die Spannung. Wer vor dem Lesen noch kein Bücherwurm ist, wird es danach garantiert sein.

May 1991Intentionalität
Eine Abhandlung zur Philosophie des Geistes
by Harvey P. Gavagai, John R. Searle
Nach seinen sprachphilosophischen Arbeiten ('Sprechakte', stw 458; 'Ausdruck und Bedeutung', stw 349) hat John R. Searle mit 'Intentionalität' eine Untersuchung zu einem Kernstück der Philosophie des Geistes vorgelegt, die in einem engen thematischen Zusammenhang mit den früheren Arbeiten steht. Intentionalität ist nach Searles Auffassung die Basis sprachlicher Bedeutung. In seiner Theorie der Intentionalität geht es um die begrifflichen Eigenschaften intentionaler Zustände (auf die Frage nach ihrem ontologischen Status geht er ausführlicher ein in 'Geist, Hirn und Wissenschaft', stw 591). Zwei Aspekte stehen dabei im Vordergrund der Untersuchung: die Logik der Repräsentation und der Kausalität intentionaler Zustände. Doch Searle entwickelt in dieser Arbeit nicht nur eine Theorie der Intentionalität und des Zusammenhangs zwischen sprachlichem und geistigem Inhalt. In einem vornehmlich kritischen Teil setzt er sich ausführlich mit konkurrierenden Auffassungen aus dem Bereich der analytischen Philosophie auseinander, insbesondere mit derzeit sehr einflußreichen 'nicht-deskriptivistischen' Theorien des Bezugs, wie sie von S. Kripke, H. Putnam, K. Donnellan, T. Burge und D. Kaplan vertreten und angeregt wurden.

Literature & Literary StudiesJanuary 2026David, Donne, and Thirsty Deer
Selected Essays of Anne Lake Prescott
by Anne Lake Prescott, Roger Kuin, William A. Oram
For nearly half a century Anne Lake Prescott has been a force and an inspiration in Renaissance studies. A force, because of her unique blend of learning and wit and an inspiration through her tireless encouragement of younger scholars and students. Her passion has always been the invisible bridge across the Channel: the complex of relations, literary and political, between Britain and France. The essays in this long-awaited collection range from Edmund Spenser to John Donne, from Clément Marot to Pierre de Ronsard. Prescott has a particular fondness for King David, who appears several times; and the reader will encounter chessmen, bishops, male lesbian voices and Roman whores. Always Prescott's immense erudition is accompanied by a sly and gentle wit that invites readers to share her amusement. Reading her is a joyful education.

Biography & True StoriesMay 2026Punk rock ruined my life
And other stories
by John Robb
The irresistible story of a one-man cultural phenomenon. Minister for the Counterculture, Mancunian mainstay and alternative national treasure John Robb has lived a life in music. In this book he charts his adventures on the cultural frontline, chronicling the making of a DIY icon. Robb's quest began in his hometown of Blackpool - where punk was a battle against the odds - and went international when he toured the world with his band. The first person to interview Nirvana, he also discovered The Stone Roses for weekly newspaper Sounds and did early interviews with The Jesus and Mary Chain and The Manics, before moving on to legends such as Mark E. Smith, Nick Cave and Patti Smith. Along the way, he became an on-screen commentator and author of bestselling books. Robb's memoir tells of deep friendships with figures from Poly Styrene to Chris Packham. Packed with riotous stories, it provides an alternative account of British musical and cultural history and a triumphant blueprint for a punk rock life.
