Content: The Bauhaus is the most celebrated artistic institution of our time. In the fourteen years of its existence in Weimar Germany, the Bauhaus became a center where the ideas that would dominate art in the twentieth century clashed and became defined. The ideas forged within the school literally transformed our landscape. Almost nothing we read, wear, or live in is devoid of its influence

Content: Yet there has been a history of the Bauhaus. For the first time, Elaine S. Hochman sets the school in the context of the turbulent times to which it was born following the collapse of Imperial Germany in 1919. The Bauhaus emerged just as radical social and political upheavals swept through Europe in the wake of World War I, a product of the convulsions of an age when the contest between ideologies was fought with the fervor of a religious war. Left was pitted against right of the streets, and these battles penetrated the walls of the Bauhaus as well. They shaped the destiny of the fledgling school and those who taught there, including some of the most illustrious names in the world of modern art - Walter Gropius, Mies van der Rohe, Lyonel Feininger, Paul Klee, and Wassily Kandinsky

Content: Hochman's access to the school's archives, previously off limits to Western scholars, provides an intimate day-to-day perspective of the school which reveals a different Bauhaus than the one projected by its latter-day champions in the U.S. This is the Bauhaus of its contemporaries, for whom the political and cultural implications were often more important than aesthetics

Content: From the Publisher: An in-depth look at how The New York Times failed in its coverage of the fate of European Jews from 1939-1945. It examines how the decisions that were made at The Times ultimately resulted in the minimizing and misunderstanding of modern history's worst genocide. Laurel Leff, a veteran journalist and professor of journalism, recounts how personal relationships at the newspaper, the assimilationist tendencies of The Times' Jewish owner, and the ethos of mid-century America, all led The Times to consistently downplay news of the Holocaust. It recalls how news of Hitler's 'final solution' was hidden from readers and-because of the newspaper's influence on other media-from America at large. Buried by The Times is required reading for anyone interested in America's response to the Holocaust and for anyone curious about how journalists determine what is newsworthy.

Series Statement: Routledge research in early childhood education

Content: Part I: Friedrich Fröbel and his pedagogy of kindergarten and play -- Friedrich Fröbel on his way of becoming an educator of young children -- The invention of kindergarten -- The challenge of finding the "authentic" Fröbel and translating his work -- Fröbel's worldview and his pedagogy of kindergarten and play -- Part II: The Fröbelianer and their modification of Fröbel's pedagogy of kindergarten and play -- The organizational development of the Fröbel movement -- The evolution of Fröbel's pedagogy of kindergarten and play -- Part III: How kindergarten came to the United States -- The kindergarten movement in the US and the openness to Fröbel -- The transfer of Fröbel's pedagogy of kindergarten and play to the US -- Conclusion : the history of Fröbel's pedagogy of kindergarten and play and its modification.

Content: "This text provides a comprehensive analysis of historical archives, letters, and primary sources to offer unique insight into how Fröbel's pedagogy of kindergarten and play has been understood, interpreted, and modified throughout history and in particular, as a consequence of it's adoption in the US. Tracing the development, modification, and global spread of the kindergarten movement, this volume demonstrates the far-reaching impacts of Fröbel's work, and asks how far contemporary understandings of the kindergarten pedagogy reflect the educationalist's original intentions. Recognizing that Fröbel's pedagogy has at times been simplified or misunderstood, the book tackles issues caused by translation, or transfer to non-German speaking countries such as the US, and so demonstrates how and why contemporary research and Froebelian practice is in the danger of diverging from the original ideas expressed in Fröbel's work. By returning to original documents produced by Fröbel, Wasmuth traces various interpretations, and explains how and why some of these understandings established themselves in the context of US Early Childhood Education, whilst others did not. This insightful text will be of great interest to graduate and postgraduate students, researchers, academics, professionals and policy makers in the fields of early childhood education, history of education, Philosophy of Education and Teacher Education"--

Uniform Title: The friend

Content: New York Times-Bestseller und Gewinner des National Book Award Eine Frau, die um ihren Freund trauert, ein riesiger Hund – und die berührende Geschichte ihres gemeinsamen Wegs zurück ins Leben. Als die Ich-Erzählerin, eine in New York City lebende Schriftstellerin, ihren besten Freund verliert, bekommt sie überraschend dessen Hund vermacht. Apollo ist eine riesige Dogge, die achtzig Kilo wiegt. Ihr Apartment ist eigentlich viel zu klein für ihn, außerdem sind Hunde in ihrem Mietshaus nicht erlaubt. Aber irgendwie kann sie nicht Nein sagen und nimmt Apollo bei sich auf, der wie sie in tiefer Trauer ist. Stück für Stück finden die beiden gemeinsam zurück ins Leben. Ein Roman über Liebe, Freundschaft und die Kraft des Erzählens -- und die tröstliche Verbindung zwischen Mensch und Hund. »Auf fast jeder Seite wollte ich mir mehrere Sätze anstreichen, bis ich es irgendwann gelassen habe, man kann ja nicht ein ganzes Buch anstreichen. Es handelt von Freundschaft, Trauer und Schreiben, könnte nicht knapper und eleganter formuliert sein.« Johanna Adorján »Mit "Der Freund" ist Sigrid Nunez über Nacht berühmt geworden als Titanin der amerikanischen Gegenwartsliteratur.« The New York Times » Eine der schwindelerregend genialsten Autorinnen überhaupt.« Gary Shteyngart »Nunez‘ Art zu schreiben hat etwas Erhebendes, ihr direkter und entschiedener Stil, die Musikalität in ihren Sätzen und ihre lebenskluge Intelligenz sind beglückend.« The New York Times Book Review

Content: The extraordinary first novel by the bestselling, Folio Prize-winning, National Book Award-shortlisted George Saunders, about Abraham Lincoln and the death of his eleven year old son, Willie, at the dawn of the Civil War. The American Civil War rages while President Lincoln's beloved eleven-year-old son lies gravely ill. In a matter of days, Willie dies and is laid to rest in a Georgetown cemetery. Newspapers report that a grief-stricken Lincoln returns to the crypt several times alone to hold his boy's body. From this seed of historical truth, George Saunders spins an unforgettable story of familial love and loss that breaks free of realism, entering a thrilling, supernatural domain both hilarious and terrifying. Willie Lincoln finds himself trapped in a transitional realm – called, in Tibetan tradition, the bardo – and as ghosts mingle, squabble, gripe and commiserate, and stony tendrils creep towards the boy, a monumental struggle erupts over young Willie's soul. Unfolding over a single night, Lincoln in the Bardo is written with George Saunders' inimitable humour, pathos and grace. Here he invents an exhilarating new form, and is confirmed as one of the most important and influential writers of his generation. Deploying a theatrical, kaleidoscopic panoply of voices – living and dead, historical and fictional – Lincoln in the Bardo poses a timeless question: how do we live and love when we know that everything we hold dear must end?

Content: "The dramatic story of the Third Reich...how Adolf Hitler and a core group of Nazis rose to power and plunged the world into a horrific war, perpetrating the genocidal Holocaust while sacrificing the lives of millions of ordinary Germans. In The Third Reich, Thomas Childers shows how the young Hitler became passionately political and anti-Semitic as he lived on the margins of society. Fueled by outrage at the punitive terms of the Versailles Treaty that ended the Great War, he found his voice and drew a following. As his views developed, Hitler attracted like-minded colleagues who formed the nucleus of the nascent Nazi party. The failed Munich putsch of 1923 and subsequent trial gave Hitler a platform for his views, which he skillfully exploited. Between 1924 and 1929 Hitler and his party languished in obscurity on the radical fringes of German politics, but the onset of the Great Depression provided Hitler the issues he needed to move into the mainstream of German political life.

Content: He seized the opportunity to blame Germany's misery on the victorious allies, the Marxists, the Jews, and big business...and the political parties that represented them. By 1932 the Nazis had become the largest political party in Germany. Although Hitler became chancellor in 1933, his party had never achieved a majority in free elections. Within six months the Nazis transformed a dysfunctional democracy into a totalitarian state and began the inexorable march to World War II and the Holocaust. It is these fraught times that Childers brings to life: the Nazis' rise to power and their use and abuse of power once they achieved it. Based in part on German documents seldom used by previous historians, The Third Reich charts the dramatic, improbable rise of the Nazis; the suffering of ordinary Germans under Nazi rule; and the horrors of World War II and the Holocaust.

Content: This is the most comprehensive and readable one-volume history of Nazi Germany since the classic Rise and Fall of the Third Reich"...
