        My Child and I

        by Thorsten Macha, Franz Petermann

        How is my child developing? Where can I turn for guidance? How can I stimulate my child’s development? Do I actually need to stimulate it? As a parent, what is my role in promoting development? And cares what it’s like for ME? “My Cild and I” addresses parents’ elementary questions on parenthood and the development of their child. It provides a clear summary of what can be expected from a child, what one can hope for, and what the child needs to be protected from. The parents themselves are not forgotten. Parenting young children is a stressful task: the book therefore contains basic recommendations that show how parents can contribute to their child’s development and where the boundaries of appropriate developmental encouragement lie. It also describes the challenges of parenthood and how parents can avoid becoming overwhelmed. Numerous tips help the reader identify and cope with the developmental risks and crises faced by both children and parents. Target Group: Parents of children between the ages of 0 and 6.

        Eleventh-century Germany

        The Swabian chronicles

        by I. Robinson

        Three of the most important chronicles of eleventh-century Germany were composed in the south-western duchy of Swabia. The chronicles reveal how between 1049 and 1100 the centripetal attraction of the reform papacy became the dominant fact of intellectual life in German reformed monastic circles. In the abbey of Reichenau Herman 'the Lame' composed a chronicle of the reign of Emperor Henry III (1039-56). His pupil, Berthold of Reichenau, continued his master's work, composing a detailed account of 1076-1079 in Germany. Bernold, a clergyman of Constance, continued the work of Herman and Berthold in a text containing the fullest extant account of 1080-1100. Herman's waning enthusiasm for the monarchy and growing interest in the newly reformed papacy were intensified in Berthold's chronicle, and writing in the new context of the reformed monasteries of south-western Germany, Bernold preached total obedience to the Gregorian papacy. The Swabian chronicles are an indispensable resource to the student of the changing loyalties and conflicts of eleventh-century Germany.

        "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.

        The Papal Reform of the Eleventh Century

        Lives of Pope Leo IX and Pope Gregory VII

        by I. Robinson

        The eleventh-century papal reform transformed western European Church and society and permanently altered the relations of Church and State in the west. The reform was inaugurated by Pope Leo IX (1048-54) and given a controversial change of direction by Pope Gregory VII (1073-85). This book contains the earliest biographies of both popes, presented here for the first time in English translation with detailed commentaries. The biographers of Leo IX were inspired by his universally acknowledged sanctity, whereas the biographers of Gregory VII wrote to defend his reputation against the hostility generated by his reforming methods and his conflict with King Henry IV. Also included is a translation of Book to a Friend, written by Bishop Bonizo of Sutri soon after the death of Gregory VII, as well as an extract from the violently anti-Gregorian polemic of Bishop Benzo of Alba (1085) and the short biography of Leo IX composed in the papal curia in the 1090s by Bishop Bruno of Segni. These fascinating narrative sources bear witness to the startling impact of the papal reform and of the 'Investiture Contest', the conflict of empire and papacy that was one of its consequences. An essential collection of translated texts for students of medieval history.

        by Hans Magnus Enzensberger

        Die hier veröffentlichten Essays bilden den Teil I der Sammlung Einzelheiten von 1962. Sie zerstreuen die Legende, daß Gedanken mit der Welt, aus der sie kommen, nichts zu schaffen hätten. Enzensberger analysiert einen Produktionsprozeß: die Herstellung nicht von Waren, sondern von Bewusstseins-Inhalten. »Die Bewußtseins-Industrie«, schreibt Enzensberger, »ist die eigentliche Schlüsselindustrie des 20. Jahrhunderts.«

        Der Tag des Königs

        by Abdellah Taïa

        An der Straße von Rabat nach Salé wartet eine Menschenmenge auf die Ankunft Hassans II., des Königs von Marokko. Mitten darin zwei Jungen.Khalid stammt aus einem herrschaftlichen Haus im reichsten Viertel der Stadt, Omar aus der armen Vorstadt. Dennoch sind sie unzertrennlich. Omar liebt Khalid, den feingliedrigen Jungen mit der zarten Haut und den überspannten Ideen. Und Khalid Omar, der mit seinen vierzehn Jahren schon die Verantwortung für seinen Vater trägt. Der ist wie ein kleines Kind, seit Omars Mutter die Familie verlassen hat. Doch unter dieser Beziehung der beiden ungleichen Jungen lauern Abgründe. Und jetzt ist überdies Khalid ausgewählt, als reichster und bester Schüler der Klasse dem König die Hand zu küssen. Er hat Omar nichts davon gesagt. Dieser Verrat läßt die Kluft zwischen beiden aufbrechen – und verlangt ein Opfer. Lakonisch, dramatisch, mit kunstvoller Theatralik erzählt der marokkanische Autor Abdellah Taïa, wie Liebe umschlägt in Gewalt unter einem von sozialer Ungleichheit und Tabus geprägten despotischen Regime.
