June 1991Armenische Märchen und Volkserzählungen
Gesammelt und herausgegeben von Leon Surmelian. Aus dem Englischen übertragen von Zora Shaked
by Leon Surmelian, Zora Shaked
Leon Surmelian, der Herausgeber und Sammler der »Armenischen Märchen«, die in der englischsprachigen Erstausgabe mit dem Titel »Äpfel der Unsterblichkeit« erschienen sind, hat die Sammlung von bisher nur mündlich überlieferten Märchen in Gesprächen mit den Bauern aus der Region um den Berg Ararat zusammengestellt. Er wuchs mit diesen Geschichten als armenischer Junge auf. Ob es sich nun um realistische Märchen aus dem Alltag handelt oder um Wundermärchen, sie vermitteln uns stets einen Einblick in die armenische Lebensweise, in die Welt der Bauern, Handwerker und Kaufleute, in die Freuden, Träume und Leiden, und geben den Blick frei auf eine Volkstradition, die geprägt ist von dem Bemühen, ihre kulturelle Identität zu bewahren als Puffer zwischen Asien und Europa.

September 2023Die total normalen Abenteuer von Odette Germaine
by Franziska Lagemann, Kristina Kister
Odette Germaine kann Tote zum Leben erwecken – und tut das auch. Als Kind hat die zwölfjährige Odette eine magische Rassel von ihrer etwas zu experimentierfreudigen Urgroßmutter Eloise bekommen. Seitdem hat Odette nekromantische Fähigkeiten und kann Tote zum Leben erwecken und kontrollieren. Deshalb verbringt sie ihre Zeit am liebsten zusammen mit ihren toten Freunden auf dem Pariser Friedhof Père Lachaise. An Halloween plant sie eine große Party für alle. Blöd nur, dass sie nicht die einzige Nekromantin dort ist. Auch die Dunkle Bruderschaft macht sich auf dem Friedhof breit und plant – ausgerechnet an Halloween – die Weltherrschaft zu übernehmen. Das kann Odette nicht zulassen. Sie setzt alles daran, den Friedhof zu verteidigen und ihre Party zu feiern. Halloween auf dem Pariser Friedhof Père Lachaise – es lebe die Fantasie! Die eigensinnige Odette lässt sich von nichts und niemandem beeindrucken oder gar von Erwachsenen etwas vorschreiben – in der Tradition von Pippi Langstrumpf und der roten Zora. Spannung, Spaß und Gruseln sind garantiert. Die Gänsehaut gibt's gratis dazu. Geballte Mädchenpower macht dich stark und beschert dir das Lesevergnügen deines Lebens. Ein fantastisches Abenteuer zum Schmökern, Schaudern und Kichern. Franziska Lagemann geht mit ihrer Gruselgeschichte für Kinder ab 10 Jahren das schwierige Thema Tod von einer ungewöhnlichen Seite an. Buch des Monats November der Deutschen Akademie für Kinder- und Jugendliteratur.

The ArtsJanuary 2024Transmodern
An art history of contact, 1920–60
by Christian Kravagna,
How can we reconfigure our picture of modern art after the postcolonial turn without simply adding regional art histories to the Eurocentric canon? Transmodern examines the global dimension of modern art by tracing the crossroads of different modernisms in Asia, Europe and the Americas. Featuring case studies in Indian modernism, the Harlem Renaissance and post-war abstraction, it demonstrates the significance of transcultural contacts between artists from both sides of the colonial divide. The book argues for the need to study non-western avant-gardes and Black avant-gardes within the west as transmodern counter-currents to mainstream modernism. It situates transcultural art practices from the 1920s to the 1960s within the framework of anti-colonial movements and in relation to contemporary transcultural thinking that challenged colonial concepts of race and culture with notions of syncretism and hybridity.

The ArtsFebruary 2022"I am Jugoslovenka!"
Feminist performance politics during and after Yugoslav Socialism
by Jasmina Tumbas, Amelia Jones, Marsha Meskimmon
"I am Jugoslovenka" argues that queer-feminist artistic and political resistance were paradoxically enabled by socialist Yugoslavia's unique history of patriarchy and women's emancipation. Spanning performance and conceptual art, video works, film and pop music, lesbian activism and press photos of female snipers in the Yugoslav wars, the book analyses feminist resistance in a range of performative actions that manifest the radical embodiment of Yugoslavia's anti-fascist, transnational and feminist legacies. It covers celebrated and lesser-known artists from the 1970s to today, including Marina Abramovic, Sanja Ivekovic, Vlasta Delimar, Tanja Ostojic, Selma Selman and Helena Janecic, along with music legends Lepa Brena and Esma Redzepova. "I am Jugoslovenka" tells a unique story of women's resistance through the intersection of feminism, socialism and nationalism in East European visual culture.
