        A Supplement of the Faery Queene

        By Ralph Knevet

        by J. B. Lethbridge

        Ralph Knevet's Supplement of the Faery Queene (1635) is a narrative and allegorical work, which weaves together a complex collection of tales and episodes, featuring knights, ladies, sorcerers, monsters, vertiginous fortresses and deadly battles - a chivalric romp in Spenser's cod medieval style. The poem shadows recent English history, and the major military and political events of the Thirty Years War. But the Supplement is also an ambitiously intertextual poem, weaving together materials from mythic, literary, historical, scientific, theological, and many other kinds of written sources. Its encyclopaedic ambitions combine with Knevet's historical focus to produce an allegorical epic poem of considerable interest and power. This new edition of Knevet's Supplement, the first scholarly text of the poem ever published, situates it in its literary, historical, biographical, and intellectual contexts. An extensive introduction and copious critical commentary, positioned at the back of the book, will enable students and scholars alike to access Knevet's complicated and enigmatic meanings, structures, and allusions. ;

        Complementary recommendations to conventional medicine

        by Dr. Markus Wiesenauer

        Vitamin A acid for acne, beta-blockers for high blood pressure, triptans for migraine – even patients treated with synthetic chemical substances may derive great benefit from a complementary homoeopathic medication, since it can - reduce the duration and dose of the allopathic medication, - increase tolerability and treatment adherence, - decrease undesirable effects, - accelerate recovery. This book directs the reader to the correct homoeopathic add-on medication for 70 common indications. Hot off the press are the sections on the homoeopathic treatment of local and systemic reactions to vaccines and the elimination of vaccine excipients. In addition, QR codes lead to the taster version of the German online database “HVKompass Homoeopathie” (guidance on advising people about homoeopathy)

        Zimzum

        by Ulla Berkéwicz

        Ein Platz, Cafes und Bars, Tische und Stühle auf den Trottoirs. Leute, Autos, Kreisverkehr. Happy Hour, die Stunde nach dem Strand und vor dem Essen. Leute sitzen zusammen, reden, trinken, Urlaubstage auf einer spanischen Insel, Horror vacui, die Leere, voll und fett. Wer sind die sechs Leute, die da reden? Freunde derer, die sie beobachtet? Oder erfundene Figuren derer, die sie erzählt? Spiegelbilder von denen, die unseren Alltag besetzen und sich gegen die innere Leere alles einverleiben, von Vitamin Koks bis Vitamin Dirt? Während die Erzählerin Szene um Szene beobachtet, gerät sie immer tiefer in innere Existenzmuster hinein. Aus freigelegten Tiefenschichten steigt ein Blick auf die Welt nach oben, der keine Schranken kennt.
