February 2021Der moralische Nexus
Frankfurter Vorlesungen
by R. Jay Wallace, Karin Wördemann
R. Jay Wallace geht in seinen Frankfurter Vorlesungen der Frage nach, inwiefern die Moral als eigenständiger Bereich einer »bilateralen Normativität« verstanden werden kann. Eine solche »bilaterale Normativität«, wie sie etwa in Abmachungen, Verträgen oder Versprechen, aber auch in familiären Beziehungen zum Tragen kommt, ist ihm zufolge insofern spezifisch, als sie zwei Personen so miteinander verbindet, dass ihre jeweiligen normativen Situationen nur mit Bezug auf die Lage der anderen Person verstanden werden können. Dass diese Situationen genuin moralisch sind, zeigt Wallace in seinem Text, der spannende Perspektiven auf den so schwierigen Begriff der Normativität eröffnet.

Humanities & Social SciencesSeptember 2024My Voice: Danny Herman
by Danny Herman
Danny Herman was born in 1935 in Königsberg in East Prussia. As the Nazis were rounding up Jews, Danny's father managed to escape to England in July 1939. He travelled to the Kitchener Camp in Kent, which helped refugees secure visas for safer places. Danny and his mother arrived in England just three days before war was declared in 1939, and his father was later sent to an internment camp on the Isle of Man. Danny went on to become a successful runner, competing in many international athletics events and volunteering in many roles, including at the 2002 Commonwealth Games. Danny's detailed memories of arriving in England, initially at the seaside in Kent and then moving to Manchester, create a vivid picture of life-changing events as experienced by a young child. Danny's book is part of the My Voice book collection, a stand-alone project of The Fed, the leading Jewish social care charity in Manchester, dedicated to preserving the life stories of Holocaust survivors and refugees from Nazi persecution who settled in the UK. The oral history, which is recorded and transcribed, captures their entire lives from before, during and after the war years. The books are written in the words of the survivor so that future generations can always hear their voice. The My Voice book collection is a valuable resource for Holocaust awareness and education.

The Island Book of Records Volume II documents the years 1969-70, during which Island sought to build on its success with the Spencer Davis Group by seeking out new British rock talent. By the end of the period, Island was emerging as a major British label, one that could boast releases from Jethro Tull, Nick Drake, King Crimson, John and Beverley Martyn, Fairport Convention and Cat Stevens. Featuring material from recent interviews and from media interviews of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The Island Book of Records Volume II is lavishly illustrated with gig adverts (very many at venues that no longer exist), concert tickets, flyers, international LP variants, labels, LP and 45 adverts and other ephemera collector's dream.

Business, Economics & LawOctober 2026The Island Book of Records Volume III
1971-72
by Neil Storey
The third in the acclaimed Island Book of Records series chronicles 1971-72, two years that saw the label secure a position at the forefront of contemporary music around the world. Major albums from Cat Stevens, Emerson, Lake & Palmer and Jethro Tull brought international success. Traffic released their era-defining The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys and Island returned to its roots with the soundtrack to the most important Jamaican film of all time, The Harder They Come. Nick Drake's masterpieces Bryter Layter and Pink Moon were yet to find their audience, but a new sensation emerged as Roxy Music released their first LP. Meanwhile, Bob Marley & The Wailers were beginning to record Catch A Fire - the album that will be the first to be detailed in IBoR IV. Featuring material from recent interviews and comment of the time, and including a comprehensive discography of 45s, The Island Book of Records Volume III is lavishly illustrated with album art, gig adverts, tickets, flyers, international LP variants, rare photos, LP and 45 adverts and exclusive ephemera.
