Spuren jüdischen Lebens an der mittleren Oder = Ślady życia żydowskiego na Środkowym Nadodrzu
(2022)
Über viele Jahrhunderte lebten Jüdinnen und Juden im Gebiet der mittleren Oder, einem wirtschaftlich höchst lebendigen Lebensraum – und bereicherten die Kultur dieser Region. Unter der Herrschaft der Nationalsozialisten wurden diese Menschen entrechtet, vertrieben und ermordet, doch ihr kulturelles Erbe ist noch sichtbar.
Das vorliegende Buch begibt sich auf eine Entdeckungsreise und folgt den Spuren dieser verschwundenen jüdischen Welt.
Der Architekt, Hochschullehrer, Juror und Kritiker Max Bächer traf 1973 auf Albert Speer, den Architekten, NS-Rüstungsminister und verurteilten Kriegsverbrecher. Das bisher unveröffentlichte Protokoll dieser Begegnung ist für Frederike Lausch der Ausgangspunkt, Max Bächers intensive Beschäftigung mit der Architektur im Faschismus zu analysieren. Bächer hielt ab 1971 mehrere Vorträge zur Architektur der NS-Zeit, in denen er auch vor den Gefahren gegenwärtiger faschistischer Tendenzen warnte. Das Gespräch mit Albert Speer mündete in eine scharf formulierte Abrechnung, nachdem dieser 1978 seine Entwürfe ohne Selbstkritik als Bildband veröffentlicht hatte. Als Speers Buch Mitte der 1980er Jahre erneut debattiert wird, fordert Bächer eine ideologiefreie Diskussionskultur ein.
Freie, öffentlichen Meinungsbildung ist das Herzstück der Demokratie. Doch digitale Kommunikation und datengetriebene Kuratierung von Inhalten verändern das der Demokratie eigene Konzept von Öffentlichkeit und erfordern neue gesetzliche Rahmenbedingungen. In diesem Sammelband führen Expert:innen der Rechts- und Politikwissenschaften, der Soziologie und Datenwissenschaft in die Materie ein und weisen Wege zur Stärkung der Demokratie in der Digitalisierung.
In light of the dramatic growth and rapid institutionalization of human-animal studies in recent years, it is somewhat surprising that only a small number of publications have proposed practical and theoretical approaches to teaching in this inter- and transdisciplinary field. Featuring eleven original pedagogical interventions from the social sciences and the humanities as well as an epilogue from ecofeminist critic Greta Gaard, the present volume addresses this gap and responds to the demand by both educators and students for pedagogies appropriate for dealing with environmental crises. The theoretical and practical contributions collected here describe new ways of teaching human-animal studies in different educational settings and institutional contexts, suggesting how learners - equipped with key concepts such as agency or relationality - can develop empathy and ethical regard for the more-than-human world and especially nonhuman animals. As the contributors to this volume show, these cognitive and affective goals can be achieved in many curricula in secondary and tertiary education. By providing learners with the tools to challenge human exceptionalism in its various guises and related patterns of domination and exploitation in and outside the classroom, these interventions also contribute to a much-needed transformation not only of today's educational systems but of society as a whole. This volume is an invitation to beginners and experienced instructors alike, an invitation to (re)consider how we teach human-animal studies and how we could and should prepare learners for an uncertain future in, ideally, a more egalitarian and just multispecies world.
With the demographic explosion of young people in major African cities, we are witnessing the emergence of youth languages and new speech forms. In search of well-being, these young people, plagued by poverty, social injustice, unemployment and idleness, invent linguistic codes that allow them to find themselves. The linguistic and sociolinguistic description of these youth languages is the object of this volume. The contributions inform on the statutes and functions of the youth languages of Africa, their forms and structures, their representations, and envisage perspectives and prospective didactics.
This project come out from our need to harness voices in Africa and Latin America, giving these voices an opportunity to converse, argue, synthesize, agree, and share ideas on the craft of writing, on life, on being and on thinking for the benefit of all. It was also an opportunity to create literary friendships and contacts between these two great regions. Generally, Latin America and Africa still have a lot of stories to share among themselves and with the rest of the world. There are still very strong untapped storytelling traditions in these continents. The stories in this volume are selected from an amazing range of entries to a call for contributions to an anthology on experimentation. It is hoped this robust selection will serve a wide variety of tastes in both Spanish and English, and that the book will open dialogue and the sharing of ideas between the two regions and the whole world. This is an invaluable contribution on many fronts.
Africa in narratives
(2014)
Africa in Narratives illuminates or proves, against the backdrop of attitudes toward nations deemed 'ethnic' or 'minorities', that literature in Africa can live up to the challenge of aesthetic imagination to form an active, refreshing part of world cultural discourse. African countries have evolved imaginatively beyond their present ephemeral stages of social and political turmoil not to talk of intellectual imitations of western thought, nation literatures should be subject to the imperative of a continental cooperation.
Best New African Poets 2016 Anthology has 251 pieces from 131 poets and artists in 7 languages (English, Portuguese, French, Afrikaans, Shona, Yoruba and Kiswahili) from 24 African countries and Diasporas, with South African and Angolan poets dominating the list. We also have a healthy number of poets from Uganda, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Mo'ambique, Ghana, and Nigeria, as usual. The nationalist sense is the one that most predominates with its pink, blue and gray tints that are expressed in parallel with existentialist perspectives that in turn go hand in hand with love, desire, hankering, joy, sensuality that transports us to epic, lyrical, utopian contexts without being lost in fantasy, they are artistic lines sometimes with traditional and sometimes more innovative touches. However, in contrast and to a lesser extent, almost as if there were resistant and with restraint we also find desolation, pain, negation that can be so sweet or so bitter that it allows the imagination to stop in a lament or end in resignation.
