Content: Adela Gareth ist eine kunstsinnige Dame, die ihren Besitz "Poynton Park" mit zahllosen erlesenen Einrichtungsgegenständen aus ganz Europa versehen hat. Ihr Sohn Owen und dessen Angebetete Mona haben nicht nur kein Verständnis für diesen Kunstsinn, sondern wollen sie auch noch aus "Poynton Park" ausquartieren. Adela Gareth sieht sich selbst massiv im Dilemma und in Fleda die eigentlich viel bessere Schwiegertochter. Dieser gefällt nicht nur das Haus, sondern auch der Sohn. Ein großer Meister des psychologischen Realismus und eine der wichtigsten Stimmen der amerikanischen Literatur des späten 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts erzählt in diesem feinen Spätwerk über familiäre Verwicklungen, deren Beweggründe sanft und subtil eingewoben werden. Das Buch erschien wie zahlreiche andere Werke des Autors zunächst als Episodenroman und 1908 erstmals in vollständiger Fassung. Der Manesse Verlag präsentiert eine Neuübersetzung dieses eher unbekannten Romans von Henry James. Nach "Die Europäer" (ID-B 49/15) erneut ein Beweis für die Zeitlosigkeit dieses Autors. Ab mittleren Beständen sehr gern empfohlen.

Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "This second volume of the landmark Architectural Theory anthology surveys the development of architectural theory from the Franco-Prussian war of 1871 until the end of the twentieth century. Together with volume I, it is the first anthology to follow the full range of architectural literature from its beginnings in classical times to its impact today. Drawing on diverse international texts, this book explores various reform movements in Europe and North America, including Arts & Crafts; spans the technological and conceptual innovations of the late-nineteenth century in connection with the rise and development of modern theory; and reviews early critiques of modernism, the "post-modern" discussions of the 1970s, and post-structural and regionalist thought in the 1980s. The editors also consider the counter-movements of the 1990s - inspired by the digital revolution, technological innovations, and growing concerns for sustainable design. This anthology maps a wide array of debates in architectural history, placing the writings of starchitects like Koolhaas, Eisenman, and Lynn alongside the work of prominent architectural critics. It also sheds new historical perspective on topics such as ecology and sustainability, as well as CAD and blobs. The result is an inspiring and comprehensive resource for those studying or working in architectural theory and art history."

Content: MACHINE-GENERATED SUMMARY NOTE: "The Routledge Companion to Ethics is an outstanding survey of the whole field of ethics by a distinguished international team of contributors. Over 60 chapters are divided into six clear sections: the history of ethics meta-ethics perspectives from outside ethics ethical perspectives morality debates in ethics. The Companion opens with a comprehensive historical overview of ethics, including chapters on Plato, Aristotle, Hume, and Kant, and ethical thinking in China, India and the Arabic tradition. The second part covers the domain of meta-ethics. The third part covers important challenges to ethics from the fields of anthropology, psychology, sociobiology and economics. The fourth and fifth sections cover competing theories of ethics and the nature of morality respectively, with entries on consequentialism, Kantian morality, virtue ethics, relativism, evil, and responsibility amongst many others. A comprehensive final section includes the most important topics and controversies in applied ethics, such as rights, justice and distribution, the end of life, the environment, poverty, war and terrorism. The Routledge Companion to Ethics is a superb resource for anyone interested in the subject, whether in philosophy or related disciplines such as politics, education, or law.
