March 2016The Pervert’s Guide to Cinema
Präsentiert von Slavoj Žižek
by Slavoj Žižek, Sophie Fiennes
Slavoj Žižek hat zwei große Leidenschaften: Das Kino und die Psychoanalyse. Was liegt da näher, als Hollywood – das Theater der Träume – auf die Couch zu legen? Für die Regisseurin Sophie Fiennes hat Žižek seine Lieblingsszenen aus etwa vierzig Klassikern (von Charlie Chaplin, Alfred Hitchcock, David Lynch u. v. a.), ausgewählt, die er in diesem Film – oft an Originalschauplätzen – mit dem begrifflichen Instrumentarium von Freud und Lacan analysiert: Inwiefern korrespondiert die Architektur des Hauses von Norman Bates (»Psycho«) mit Freuds Strukturmodell der Psyche? Was hätte der Entdecker des Ödipus-Komplexes zu dem Konflikt zwischen Luke Skywalker und Darth Vader gesagt? Als »150-minütige Achterbahnfahrt durch die Geschichte von Kino und psychologischer Filmtheorie« bezeichnete die »Frankfurter Rundschau« Žižeks cineastischen Crashkurs, dem Philosophen selbst attestierte sie »beachtliches Starpotenzial.«

January 1996Mystik als Aussage
Erfahrungs-, Denk- und Redeformen christlicher Mystik
by Alois Maria Haas, Louise Gnädinger
Mystische Erfahrungen sind, so sehr jene, die davon berichten oder dazu anregen wollen, nur im Status von Texten zu haben. Eine Hermeneutik der mystischen Rede muß daher beidem Rechnung tragen: der Erfahrung – intendiert oder rückerinnert im Text – und der sprachlichen Struktur des Textes. In systematischen und geschichtlichen Analysen versuchen Haas' Studien, Topisches und historisch Einmaliges in der abendländischen (speziell der rheinländisch-»deutschen« und spanischen), aber auch – vergleichend dazu – zen-buddhistischen Mystik zu ermitteln. »Mystik als Aussage« meint dabei den Vorgang, in dem diese »Texte mit verlorenem Sinn« auf ihre Bedeutung hin befragt werden.

by Tanja Voosen/ Viktoria Gavrilenko
Magical sweets and real miracles? Elina has experienced them both in Belony, and now she can hardly wait to dip deeper into the world of the candy crafters. But it’s not long before a new problem arises, because just before Robin’s first candy crafting examination, his magic tool goes bust. Old Mr Snotty knows where they can get help, and he takes Elina and her friends to Bittersweet Avenue. It quickly becomes clear, though, that not all candy crafters are well disposed towards “ungifted” people. There are also rumours about the return of the mysterious Otherwise Society, which has tried once before to bring down the mighty Candy Guild. When Mr Snotty suddenly disappears without a trace, it’s up to Elina, Charlie and Robin to follow the clues he has left behind for them. They soon realize that there is a reason for his disappearance, because the Otherwise Society is looking for something in particular – and Elina, Charlie and Robin have the key to this something in their hands…

Tim has an idea of what tactics he can use to stop him. But will it work in the big game? And of course, there's our ace striker, who is supposed to give tips for the big game. How can they stop this pudding bomber? Fortunately, the two have worked out a tactic, which Tim communicates to his team and which is also adjusted again in the game. A coach has to be flexible. And in the end, of course, the decisive goal falls for Hegenwald, Tim's team. They have won the big game. Tim, of course, records everything in his diary! • For all soccer-loving children and fans of Greg's Diary and Ace Striker • Funny and fast-paced narration • Illustrated in black-and-white by Dominik Rupp

The most magical adventure since the discovery of chocolate! Do you believe in magic and miracles? Everyone in the little town of Belony takes magic and miracles for granted – everyone except Elina, who thinks it’s all a load of nonsense.
