        Annotated Chaucer bibliography

        1997–2010

        by Mark Allen, Stephanie Amsel

        Author of The Canterbury Tales and foundation of the English literary tradition, Geoffrey Chaucer has been popular with readers, writers and scholars for over 600 years. More than 4600 books, essays, poems, stories, recordings and websites pertaining to Chaucer were published between 1997 and 2010, and this bibliography identifies each of them separately, providing publication information and a descriptive summary of contents. The bibliography also offers several useful discovery aids to enable users to locate individual items of interest, whether it be a study of the Wife of Bath's love life, a video about Chaucer's language, advice on how to teach a particular poem by Chaucer, or a murder mystery that features Chaucer as detective. Useful for scholars, teachers and students alike, this volume is a must for academic libraries.

        Allen Gewalten zum Trutz sich erhalten

        Gedichte und Bilder

        by Johann Wolfgang Goethe, Hans-Joachim Simm

        In Liedern auf die Liebe und die Freundschaft, in Hymnen auf das Unendliche und in Versen voller Einsicht und Weisheit hat Goethe das Leben bedichtet und besungen. Jede Gelegenheit konnte Anlaß sein für ein Gedicht, in freien Rhythmen oder in strengen Strophen, in Sonetten oder Epigrammen – Dichtung als Spiegel des Lebens und als Fluchtraum zugleich. Goethes Haltung zur Welt zeigen die in diesem Band versammelten Gedichte, ebenso wie seine Zeichnungen und Aquarelle. Im entschiedenen Eintreten für die Wahrheit und in ihrem Appell zur Selbstbestimmung sind sie heute noch genauso aktuell wie 1777, als die Verse für das Singspiel Lila entstanden: »Allen Gewalten / Zum Trutz sich erhalten, / Nimmer sich beugen, / Kräftig sich zeigen, / Rufet die Arme / Der Götter herbei!«

        Politische Gleichheit

        by Danielle Allen, Christine Pries

        Wer hat Macht und aufgrund welcher institutionellen Strukturen, Ressourcen und Möglichkeiten? Kann es sein, dass wir in den letzten Jahrzehnten im Schatten eines abstrakten liberalen Gleichheitsideals verlernt haben, die konkreten Machtverhältnisse und Ungleichheiten unserer Gesellschaften zu sehen – und uns die neuen ökonomischen Verwerfungen und rechtspopulistischen Mobilisierungen deshalb relativ unvorbereitet trafen? Ja, sagt Danielle Allen, und entwickelt in ihrem Buch ein neues Verständnis politischer Gleichheit für Gesellschaften großer sozialer und kultureller Vielfalt. Ausgangspunkt ihrer Analyse ist das Verhältnis zwischen negativen und positiven Rechten. Im Gegensatz zur einflussreichen liberalen Theorie à la Rawls plädiert Allen dafür, beiden die gleiche Wichtigkeit einzuräumen – und gelangt so zu einer Theorie der Gerechtigkeit, die auf dem Prinzip »Differenz ohne Herrschaft« basiert. Im Lichte dieses Prinzips lassen sich beispielsweise Probleme des gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalts produktiv bearbeiten. Echte politische Gleichheit, so Allen, lässt sich nur in demokratischen Gesellschaften mit starken sozialen Bindungen realisieren. Dazu gilt es, Differenzen auszuhalten und neue Kulturen der Interaktion aufzubauen. Und es braucht eine Politik, die genau dies etwa durch entsprechende sozial- und wirtschaftspolitische Maßnahmen fördert. Eine Theorie für das 21. Jahrhundert.
