        Gedichte

        by Joachim Ringelnatz, Renée Sintenis, Matthias Reiner

        Renée Sintenis war ein Star im Berlin der zwanziger Jahre! Zu ihrem Freundeskreis zählten Rilke und Ringelnatz, ihre Skulpturen wurden von Alfred Flechtheim in Paris und New York ausgestellt, als erste Bildhauerin wurde sie in die Berliner Akademie der Künste gewählt. Ihre berühmteste Tierskulptur steht heute an der Zehlendorfer Autobahn: der bronzene Berliner Bär, weltweit bekannt geworden als Miniatur, die in Gold und Silber jährlich bei den Internationalen Filmfestspielen verliehen wird. Im Jahr 1949 erschien der Band "Tiere", eine Auswahl der schönsten Tiergedichte von Joachim Ringelnatz, illustriert mit dreizehn kongenialen Tierzeichnungen von Renée Sintenis.

        Film light

        Meaning and emotion

        by Lara Thompson

        In one of the first monographs of its kind to focus on the aesthetic and emotional impact of lighting in cinema, Lara Thompson looks at the way light informs the cinematic experience, from constructing star identities, sculpting natural light and creating imaginary worlds, to the seductive power of darkness, fading representations of the past and arresting twilight encounters. This groundbreaking and accessible introductory study offers a unique insight into the way illumination has transcended its diffuse functional boundaries and been elevated to a position of narrative and emotional importance, transforming it from an unobtrusive element of film style to an expressive and essential component. It includes analyses of over fifty renowned international films, discussed in inventive and illuminating combinations, from cinema's earliest moments to its most recent digital manifestations, and is essential reading for all those who want to understand what film light means and how it makes us feel. ;

        Drama + threory

        Critical approaches

        by Peter Buse

        Energetically places modern British drama and contemporary critical and cultural theory in dialogue, demonstrating how theory allows fresh insights into familiar plays. Each chapter pairs a well-known play from the post-war period with a classic theory text, the theoretical text is not simply applied to the dramatic one: instead, the play and the theoretical text reflect on each other in a mutual illumination. Examples include: So Look Back in Anger is read by and reads Lacan's Signification of the Phallus Pinter's The Homecoming is made uncanny with Freud Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead finds affinities with Lyotard's The Postmodern Condition Timberlake Wertenbaker's Our Country's Good agrees and disagrees with Edward Said Sarah Kane's Blasted thinks through trauma with Shoshana Felman. In each case, the theoretical position is explained lucidly and economically. The result is a series of new interpretations not only of the plays, but of the theoretical texts, which take on new relevance when linked with modern British drama. The first textbook of its kind, linking contemporary drama with critical and cultural theory. ;

        Marcel Proust

        Biographie

        by Jean-Yves Tadié, Max Looser

        Die "Biographie des Werkes" ist die einzig sinnvolle Aufgabe für einen Proust-Biographen. Mit diesem Leitfaden folgt Jean-Yves Tadié – Kenner und wohl wichtigster Herausgeber des Proustschen Gesamtwerkes – der Intention Prousts, der 1921 in seinem Aufsatz über Baudelaire betont, bei einer Biographie gehe es um das Warum und das Wie, nicht um das Was. Bei Tadié sind folglich die äußeren Lebensumstände und -zeugnisse, einschließlich der Korrespondenz, nur Belege und Mittel, um das „innere Leben“, das, was Proust wußte, dachte, empfand, interpretierend zu erschließen. Die Darstellung fließt dabei nicht immer exakt linear. Sie reflektiert auch die Bruchstellen und registriert bewertend die Details von Belang und die oft retardierenden Bedeutungen der Ereignisse. Es ergibt sich ein Puzzle von Personen, Orten und Motiven. Jedes einzelne der Teile gleicht einer Miniatur, bildet ein eigenständiges Porträt, um sich schließlich in ein Gesamtbild zu fügen. Dieses mikrologische Verfahren bietet alles, was man über Proust wissen kann, alles Wissenswerte, was zum Verständnis der Gestalt des Schriftstellers und seines Werkes beiträgt.

        Lust

        Fuckability, orgasm gap and #metoo

        by Henriette Hell

        Lust, a mortal sin? These times are over. In today's public perception, it is more likely for a boring sex life to be categorised as that. In statistical terms, people have never had as little sex with each other as they do today. And yet tips for a good sex life are to be found on every (digital) corner. Sex has mutated into a lifestyle product, and terms like 'fuckability' and 'MILF' trip lightly off our tongues. Henriette Hell takes a closer look at the thing about sex. She traces the history and genesis of 'sexual liberation', and sheds light on the 'cheating gene' and the #metoo debate. The author asks (and answers) the question of whether sex is becoming more and more antisocial and what actually still turns us on today. In doing so, she focuses on the former mortal sin of lust, which is inseparably linked to the systematic suppression of female lust (and its liberation).
