Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,3, Free University of Berlin (Institut für Englische Philologie), course: Medieval English Literatures II, language: English, abstract: ¿Music, through the sweetness of its melody, brings pleasure and comfort to the soul.¿ This citation by Nigel Wilkin in ¿Music in the Age of Chaucer¿ ascribes a special own form of power to music; the power to affect someone¿s soul. Also in the poem of Orpheus and Eurydice by the Scottish poet Robert Henryson , music plays a decisive role and implies a special power to the protagonist. The poem, which approximately was written in the late fifteenth century, leans on the Greek myth of Orpheus. King Orpheus, who is introduced as the grandson of Memoria and Jupiter, the son of the ¿michty god Phebuss¿ and the muse Caliope, ¿that madin mervalouss,/ The ferd sistir, of all musik maistress¿, gains his bond to music through his mother¿s milk, quod vide ¿gart him souk of hir twa paupis quhyte/ The sueit lecour of all musik perfyte¿. Henryson describes Orpheus as ¿fair and wyse,/ Gentill and gud, full of liberalitie¿. His ¿noble fame¿ was extensive, so that the queen of ¿Trace¿, called Eurydice, heard about him, too. They get married and live their life full of happiness, pleasure and enjoyment.

"To truly appreciate and understand Filipino dishes, you have to understand the evolution of the spices, the nuances of the flavor profiles, the land from which these dishes were birthed. That's what this book provides. This is not just a book of recipes; this is a book about our story." --Pati Navalta Poblete, Editor-in-Chief, San Francisco Magazine No cuisine and appliance are better suited for one another than Filipino food and the Instant Pot. From classic dinner staples like the traditionally sour Sinigang na Baboy (pork tamarind soup) to sweet treats like Putong Puti (steamed rice cake), the rich flavors of Filipino food are typically unlocked through a long braise or boil, a delicate steam, or some other treatment by moist heat. Fortunately, this is exactly what the Instant Pot does best. The Filipino Instant Pot Cookbook is written by six home cooks who set out to explore their Filipino heritage and intimate family histories, one dish at a time. The result is a collection of over 75 heartfelt Filipino recipes, all carefully translated for preparation in today's most essential piece of kitchenware, the Instant Pot. Just as Filipino food is now a mainstay in the consciousness of foodies from around the world, The Filipino Instant Pot Cookbook is an absolute must-have for every modern home cook. It is written with humor and heart, and lined with beautifully styled photography that will trigger a warm sense of nostalgia. Praised by the Culinary Director of the Filipino Food Movement, the President Emeritus of the Filipino American National Historical Society, and chefs from around the world, The Filipino Instant Pot Cookbook will help any home cook step into a kitchen and create great Filipino food for any setting, without breaking the bank… or the clock. Whether you're cooking for a raucous affair featuring the tableside chatter of an entire extended family or a simple, quiet comfort-meal under your favorite blanket on the couch, The Filipino Instant Pot Cookbook will have you covered.

The acclaimed author of Founding Gardeners reveals the forgotten life of Alexander von Humboldt, the visionary German naturalist whose ideas changed the way we see the natural world-and in the process created modern environmentalism.NATIONAL BEST SELLEROne of the New York Times 10 Best Books of the YearWinner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize, The James Wright Award for Nature Writing, the Costa Biography Award, the Royal Geographic Society's Ness Award, the Sigurd F. Olson Nature Writing AwardFinalist for the Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction, the Royal Society Science Book Prize, the Kirkus Prize Prize for Nonfiction, the Independent Bookshop Week Book AwardA Best Book of the Year: The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Economist, Nature, Jezebel, Kirkus Reviews, Publishers Weekly, New Scientist, The Independent, The Telegraph, The Sunday Times, The Evening Standard, The SpectatorAlexander von Humboldt (1769-1859) was the most famous scientist of his age, a visionary German naturalist and polymath whose discoveries forever changed the way we understand the natural world. Among his most revolutionary ideas was a radical conception of nature as a complex and interconnected global force that does not exist for the use of humankind alone. In North America, Humboldt's name still graces towns, counties, parks, bays, lakes, mountains, and a river. And yet the man has been all but forgotten. In this illuminating biography, Andrea Wulf brings Humboldt's extraordinary life back into focus: his prediction of human-induced climate change; his daring expeditions to the highest peaks of South America and to the anthrax-infected steppes of Siberia; his relationships with iconic figures, including Simón Bolívar and Thomas Jefferson; and the lasting influence of his writings on Darwin, Wordsworth, Goethe, Muir, Thoreau, and many others. Brilliantly researched and stunningly written, The Invention of Nature reveals the myriad ways in which Humboldt's ideas form the foundation of modern environmentalism-and reminds us why they are as prescient and vital as ever.

Der Status von Bildern liegt nie von vornherein fest, noch bleibt er im Lauf der Zeit unverändert. Sogar ein und dieselbe Abbildung kann verschiedene Dinge tun, verschiedene Rollen spielen, verschiedene Räume besetzen, verschiedene Bedeutungen tragen, in verschiedenen Sprachen sprechen. Immer steht schon ein weiteres Bild, ein weiterer Status bereit. Aus der Beweglichkeit und Bezüglichkeit von Bildern ergibt sich, dass ihr Status grundsätzlich infrage steht. Diese instabile Kraft erweist sich als besonders brisant, wenn sie auf das Thema der Gerechtigkeit trifft: Krieg, Konflikt und Revolution, Protest. Rasha Salti und Thomas Keenan greifen auf ihre eigenen Archive und Praktiken zurück, um sich einen Weg durch eine ganze Status-Galerie zu bahnen: Bilder als Erinnerung, Erscheinung, Inkarnation, Operation, Enthüllung, Köder, Repräsentation, Projektion, Erfassung bis hin zur epistemischen Ressource. -- The status of an image is never given in advance, nor does it remain fixed over time. Even the same image can do different things, play different roles, occupy different spaces, carry different meanings, speak in different voices. There is always another image, another status, lying in wait. This mobility and relationality of images means that their status is always in question. This unstable force of the image is particularly charged when the context is that of justice-war, conflict and revolution, protest. In this conversation, Rasha Salti and Thomas Keenan draw on their own archives and practices to make their way through a veritable gallery of statuses, from images as memory, appearance, incarnation, operation, exposure, lure, representation, projection, and capture to epistemic resource.

"Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick writes with intense precision, and yet her work directs us toward the domain where meaning is music, unquantifiable, enigmatic, nonlinguistic. If the performative speech act, with all its relation to norms and laws, is central to the reception of her work in queer theory, then the performativity of knowledge beyond speech--aesthetic, bodily, affective--is its real topic."--Lauren Berlant, author of "The Queen of America Goes to Washington City"
