»Der Ort vor dem Palast ist der Ort der Transformation, des Figurwerdens, des Tragödiewerdens, er ist der eigentliche Ort des Theaters«, sagt die Theaterwissenschaftlerin Ulrike Haß im Gespräch. Dort, inszenierend und über das Theater schreibend (Droge Faust Parsifal), hat sich der Theatermann Schleef aufgehalten. Von dort aus hat er operiert. Aber wer war Einar Schleef (1944-2001)?Die Gespräche dieses Bandes kreisen die kontroverse Ausnahmeerscheinung und das Werk dieses Künstlers ein, der Regisseur, Autor, Maler, Darsteller, Filmer und Fotograf in einer Person war. Die Herausgeberin fragt: Was machte ihn aus? Welche Entdeckungen sind in den künstlerischen Disziplinen, die er beherrschte, zu machen? Was an den Erkenntnissen, Thesen, Provokationen und Demonstrationen, die Einar Schleefs Arbeiten bereithalten, verlangt danach, vorgezeigt und diskutiert, verwandelt und weitergegeben zu werden? Wo steht das Theater heute? Wie geht es weiter?Mit der Herausgeberin gesprochen haben: Sebastian Baumgarten, Bibiana Beglau, Jakob Fedler, Michael Freitag (über den Maler), Christine Groß, Ulrike Haß, Carl Hegemann, Regine Herrmann (über den Fotografen), Jürgen Holtz, Elfriede Jelinek, Wolfram Koch, Thomas Köck, Hans-Ulrich Müller-Schwefe (über den Autor), Armin Petras, Claus Peymann, Günther Rühle, Ulrich Rasche, Hans-Jürgen Syberberg, Heiner Sylvester (über den Filmer), Rita Thiele, Susan Todd, Martin Wuttke.

This book offers an innovative account of manliness in Britain between 1760 and 1900. Using diverse textual, visual and material culture sources, it shows that masculinities were produced and disseminated through men's bodies -often working-class ones - and the emotions and material culture associated with them. The book analyses idealised men who stimulated desire and admiration, including virile boxers, soldiers, sailors and blacksmiths, brave firemen and noble industrial workers. It also investigates unmanly men, such as drunkards, wife-beaters and masturbators, who elicited disgust and aversion. Unusually, Manliness in Britain runs from the eras of feeling, revolution and reform to those of militarism, imperialism, representative democracy and mass media, periods often dealt with separately by historians of masculinities.

Interventions on behalf of Armenia and Armenians have come to be identified by scholars and practitioners alike as defining moments in the history of humanitarianism. This book reassesses these claims, critically examining a range of interventions by governments, international and diasporic organizations, and individuals that aimed to 'save Armenians'. Drawing on multidisciplinary perspectives, it traces the evolution of these interventions from the late-nineteenth century to the present day, paying particular attention to the aftermaths of the genocide and the upheavals of the post-Soviet period. The contributions connect diverse places (the Caucasus, Russia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, South America, and Australia) to reveal shifting transnational networks of aid and intervention. Aid to Armenia explores this history, and engages critically with contemporary humanitarian questions facing Armenia, the South Caucasus region and the wider diaspora.
