Series Statement: Studies in German literature, linguistics, and culture

Content: Best known for his collaborations with Bertolt Brecht, composer Hanns Eisler also set nineteenth-century German poetry to music that both absorbs and disturbs the Lieder tradition. This book traces Eisler's art songs (German: Kunstlieder) through twentieth-century political crises from World War I to Nazi-era exile and from Eisler's postwar deportation from the U.S. to the ideological pressures he faced in the early German Democratic Republic. His art songs are presented not as an escape from the "dark times" Brecht lamented but rather as a way to intervene in the nationalist appropriation of aesthetic material. The book follows a chronological arc from Eisler's early Morgenstern songs to his Lied-like setting of Brecht's 1939 "To Those Who Come After" and his treatment of Hölderlin's poetry in the 1940s Hollywood Songbook; the final two chapters focus on Eisler's Goethe settings in the early GDR, followed by his late Serious Songs recalling Brahms in their reflective approach. In its combination of textual and musicological analysis, this book balances technical and lay vocabulary to reach readers with or without musical background. The author's practical perspective as a singer also informs the book, as she addresses not only what Eisler asks of the voice but also the challenge of evoking both intimacy and distance in his politically fraught art songs. Heidi Hart holds a PhD in German Studies from Duke University. She is an instructor in the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at Utah State University.

Content: Wir alle sind Rassisten, ob wir es merken oder nicht. Ibram X. Kendi, Historiker, Professor an der University of Washington, Schwarz, behauptet auch von sich selbst, früher Rassist gewesen zu sein. In seinem so brillanten wie mitreißenden Buch zeigt er anhand der eigenen Geschichte, dass Neutralität im Kampf gegen Rassismus keine Option ist: Wir sind in unserer Ignoranz so lange Teil des Problems, bis wir Teil der Lösung werden und aktiv antirassistisch handeln. Kendi zerstört den Mythos der postrassischen Gesellschaft und entwirft ein grundlegend neues Verständnis von Rassismus - was er ist, wo er sich verbirgt, wie er zu identifizieren ist und was wir dagegen tun können. Denn wir sind entweder rassistisch oder antirassistisch, dazwischen gibt es nichts.

Note: Ibram X. Kendi, geboren 1982 in New York, ist Gründungsdirektor des Antiracist Research and Policy Center, Professor für Geschichte und Internationale Beziehungen und er hat die renommierte Andrew-W.-Mellon-Professur in the Humanities an der Boston University inne, die als besondere Auszeichnung für akademische und gesellschaftliche Leistung gilt und seit ihrer Gründung 1973 nur von Elie Wiesel besetzt war. Für sein Buch "Gebrandmarkt. Die wahre Geschichte des Rassismus in Amerika" erhielt er 2016 den National Book Award. "How to Be an Antiracist" ist sein neues, viel beachtetes Buch, New-York-Times-Nummer-1-Bestseller, in dem er anhand der eigenen Geschichte die Mechanismen von Rassismus sichtbar macht und nicht weniger als die radikale Neuorientierung unseres Bewusstseins fordert.

Content: Leonard Bernstein touched millions of lives as composer, conductor, teacher, and activist. He frequently visited homes around the world through the medium of television, particularly through his fifty-three award-winning Young People's Concerts (1958-1972), which at their height were seen by nearly ten million in over forty countries. Originally designed for young viewers but equally attractive to eager adults, Bernstein's brilliance as a teacher shined brightly in his televised presentations. And yet, despite the light touch of the "maestro," the innocence of his audience, and the joyousness of each show's topic, the turbulence of the times would peek through. In this first in-depth look at the series, Alicia Kopfstein-Penk's Leonard Bernstein and His Young People's Concerts illustrates how the cultural, social, political, and musical upheavals of the long sixties impacted Bernstein's life and his Young People's Concerts. Responding to trends in corporate sponsorship, censorship, and arts programming from the Golden Age of Television into the 1970s, the Young People's Concerts would show the impact of and reflect the social and cultural politics of the Cold War, Vietnam, the Civil Rights and Women's Movements, and the Counterculture. Bernstein cheerfully bridged classical and popular tastes, juxtaposing the Beatles with Mozart even as he offered personal, televised pleas for peace and unity. At the same time, the concerts reflect Bernstein's troubled relationship as a professional musician with the dominance of atonality and his quest to nurture American music. Anyone who enjoys the oeuvre of Leonard Bernstein, has watched his Young People's Concerts, or is passionate about the history of the long sixties will find in Leonard Bernstein and His Young People's Concerts a story of all three captured in this monumental study.

Content: Platz 1 der New York Times-Bestsellerliste - der neue geniale Thriller von Lucy Foley jetzt endlich auch bei uns! Ein geheimnisvolles Haus in Paris, schweigsame Nachbarn und ein tödliches Geheimnis ... Ein einsames Haus am Ende einer verwinkelten Seitengasse im Pariser Stadtviertel Montmartre: Pleite und nur mit einem einzigen Koffer in der Hand steht Jess vor der Tür ihres Bruders, der versprochen hat, sie für ein paar Wochen bei sich wohnen zu lassen. Doch sie findet seine Wohnung leer vor - es scheint, als habe er sie überstürzt verlassen. Die Nachbarn machen keinen Hehl daraus, dass Fremde in diesem Haus nicht willkommen sind. Je länger ihr Bruder verschwunden bleibt, desto mehr fühlt Jess sich beobachtet in dem alten Gebäude mit seinen geheimen Durchgängen und vielen verschlossenen Türen. Immer unerbittlicher wächst in ihr der Verdacht, dass dieser Ort ein schreckliches Geheimnis verbirgt. Und auch unter den Nachbarn suchen sich lang begrabene Feindseligkeiten ihren gefährlichen Weg ans Licht. Dann macht Jess eine unfassbare Entdeckung. Und die Situation im Haus eskaliert ... Nach ihren sensationellen Erfolgen "Neuschnee" und "Sommernacht" garantiert Bestsellerautorin Lucy Foley wieder atemlose Spannung.

Content: "From New York Times bestselling author and economics columnist Robert Frank, a revelatory look at the power and potential of social context. As psychologists have long understood, social environments profoundly shape our behavior, sometimes for the better, but often for the worse. Less widely noted is that social influence is a two-way street: Our environments are in large part themselves a product of the choices we make. Society embraces regulations that limit physical harm to others, as when smoking restrictions are defended as protecting bystanders from secondhand smoke. But we have been slower to endorse parallel steps that discourage harmful social environments, as when regulators fail to note that the far greater harm caused when someone becomes a smoker is to make others more likely to smoke. In Under the Influence, Robert Frank attributes this regulatory asymmetry to the laudable belief that individuals should accept responsibility for their own behavior. Yet that belief, he argues, is fully compatible with public policies that encourage supportive social environments. Most parents hope, for example, that their children won't grow up to become smokers, bullies, tax cheats, sexual predators, or problem drinkers. But each of these hopes is less likely to be realized whenever such behaviors become more common. Such injuries are hard to measure, Frank acknowledges, but that's no reason for policymakers to ignore them. The good news is that a variety of simple policy measures could foster more supportive social environments without ushering in the dreaded nanny state or demanding painful sacrifices from anyone."

Series Statement: Geological Society special publication 43

Content: This book contains papers presented at a joint meeting of the Metamorphic Studies Group and IGCP Project 235 (Metamorphism and Geodynamics) held at University College Dublin in September 1987. Recent developments in the methods and application of geothermometry and geobarometry, relative thermobarometry and in textural and isotopic dating of metamorphic events are reviewed. New thermal and tectonic models for metamorphism in different tectonic settings are presented. Case studies make up a substantial part of the book, many in the form of short summary papers that describe P-T-t paths for specific field areas from different tectonic settings world-wide. The broad range of topics covered reflects the multidisciplinary character of research on the thermal evolution of metamorphic belts - an area that is opening up an exciting interface between petrology, geochronology and tectonics.
