        Meines Vaters Liebling

        Roman

        by Carole L. Glickfeld, Mirjam Pressler

        Der wichtigste Mann im Leben eines Mädchens ist – häufig genug – ihr Vater. Schwierig, wenn es sich dabei um einen launischen Patriarchen handelt, der auch vor Prügeln nicht zurückschreckt. Noch schwieriger, wenn man erst neun Jahre alt ist und sein erklärter Liebling. Wie weit würde man gehen, um die Familie – die älteren Geschwister, die strenge, aber fürsorgliche Mutter – vor dem eigenen Vater in Schutz zu nehmen? Ruthie Zimmer meistert ihre Kindheit in einem der weniger glamourösen Viertel Manhattans mit Intelligenz und wacher Neugierde. Zwanzig Jahre später, als erwachsene Frau, kehrt sie dorthin zurück und wagt sich an die Auseinandersetzung mit den alten Erinnerungen und mit ihrem schwierigen, geliebten Vater. Temperamentvoll und mit warmherzigem Humor erzählt Carole L. Glickfeld, die Autorin des Erfolgsromans Herzweh, von einer Familie im New York der fünfziger Jahre, vor allem aber von einer Beziehung zwischen Tochter und Vater, die trotz aller dramatischen Spannungen unauflöslich scheint.

        Leprosy and identity in the Middle Ages

        From England to the Mediterranean

        by Elma Brenner, François-Olivier Touati

        For the first time, this volume explores the identities of leprosy sufferers and other people affected by the disease in medieval Europe. The chapters, including contributions by leading voices such as Luke Demaitre, Carole Rawcliffe and Charlotte Roberts, challenge the view that people with leprosy were uniformly excluded and stigmatised. Instead, they reveal the complexity of responses to this disease and the fine line between segregation and integration. Ranging across disciplines, from history to bioarchaeology, Leprosy and identity in the Middle Ages encompasses post-medieval perspectives as well as the attitudes and responses of contemporaries. Subjects include hospital care, diet, sanctity, miraculous healing, diagnosis, iconography and public health regulation. This richly illustrated collection presents previously unpublished archival and material sources from England to the Mediterranean.

        Carol Reed

        by Peter William Evans, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard

        Carol Reed is one of the truly outstanding directors of British cinema, and one whose work is long overdue for reconsideration. This major study ranges over Reed's entire career, combining observation of general trends and patterns with detailed analysis of twenty films, both acknowledged masterpieces and lesser-known works. Evans avoids a simplistic auteurist approach, placing the films in their autobiographical, socio-political and cultural contexts and relating these to the analysis of Reed's art. The critical approach combines psychoanalysis, gender theory, and the analysis of form. Archival research is also relied on to clarify Reed's relations with his creative team, financial backers and others. Films examined include Bank Holiday, A Girl Must Live, Odd Man Out, The Fallen Idol, The Third Man, Night Train to Munich, The Way Ahead, Outcast of the Islands, Trapeze and Oliver!. ;

        How to be multiple

        The philosophy of twins

        by Helena de Bres, Julia de Bres

        In How to be multiple, Helena de Bres - a twin herself - argues that twinhood is a unique lens for examining our place in the world and how we relate to other people. The way we think about twins offers remarkable insights into some of the deepest questions of our existence, from what is a person? to how should we treat one another? Deftly weaving together literary and cultural history, philosophical enquiry and personal experience, de Bres examines such thorny issues as binary thinking, objectification, romantic love and friendship, revealing the limits of our individualistic perspectives. In this illuminating, entertaining book, wittily illustrated by her twin sister, de Bres ultimately suggests that to consider twinhood is to imagine the possibility of a more interconnected, capacious human future.
