Prosateur de talent doté d'une plume acerbe, La Bruyère est loin de se contenter de peindre les moeurs de son temps. Multipliant, de maximes en analyses, les portraits satiriques tout autant qu'ironiques d'une société de faux-semblants, son propos acquiert une portée universelle. Sous le règne des apparences, où le grand travestissement burlesque le dispute à l'hypocrisie, aucun vice de l'humanité ne lui échappe : ambition, vanité, inconstance... Si l'on peut encore s'étonner du succès d'une oeuvre si corrosive, c'est sûrement qu'il est aisé de rire des autres pour ne pas rire de soi !

Die Kurzgeschichtensammlung Echoes of the Empire ermöglicht eine literarische Zeitreise von der Epoche des Empire und des Commonwealth in die moderne multikulturelle Gesellschaft Großbritanniens. Dabei illustrieren die Texte drei Etappen der Entwicklung von den ersten colonial encounters und den damit einhergehenden cross-cultural experiences bis zu den post-colonial consequences.Die Texte konfrontieren die Schüler und Schülerinnen kaleidoskopartig mit historisch-politischen Fragen in Bezug auf den Imperialismus, aber auch mit ethisch-moralischen Belangen, wenn es um die Entlarvung menschenverachtender Doppelmoral der oft brutalen Kolonialmächte geht. Die Texte der neuen Generation von Schriftstellern üben einen besonderen Reiz aus und schlagen auch versöhnliche Töne an. Sie schreiben die Schuld an der noch immer nicht funktionierenden Integration ethnischer Minderheiten nicht nur der mangelnden Toleranz der britischen Gesellschaft zu, sondern - oft in humorvoller Weise - auch den eigenen von Tradition und Religion geprägten Verhaltensmustern.Die Textausgabe ist umfassend annotiert. Die short stories eignen sich als Schullektüre ab Klasse 10.Kurzgeschichten:Joseph Conrad: An Outpost of Progress (1898) - Somerset Maugham: The Force of Circumstance (1928) - George Orwell: Shooting an Elephant (1936) - Doris Lessing: The Second Hut (1964) - R. K. Narayan: A Horse and Two Goats (1965) - Chinua Achebe: Dead Men's Path (1972) - Ngugi wa Thiong'o: A Meeting in the Dark (1974) - Muriel Spark: The Black Madonna (1963) - Qaisra Shahraz: A Pair of Jeans (1988) - Hanif Kureishi: My Son the Fanatic (1994) - Salman Rushdie: Good Advice Is Rarer than Rubies (1994)Eine Audio-CD mit ausgewählten Texten ist erhältlich unter der Bestell-Nr.: 062405.

From Now On Everything Will Be Beautiful is the first monographic book publication of Jirí Thýn, the most prominent artist figure of the post-conceptual wave in Czech photography of the 21st century. It maps his responses to the inflation of technical images and traces his gradual shift away from the narrative nature of the photographic medium to an exploration of photography as a means of contemplative and immediate creative action. In the past, Thýn has reused existing photographs, shifting their meaning through his interventions. This time he was invited to recycle his own images. For this purpose, together with graphic designer Adéla Svobodová, he selected and arranged the reproductions as a non-verbal structure in which the past is viewed through contemporary eyes-as communication between images that have come together from different times, which can lead to previously unseen, electrifying encounters. Jirí Thýn (b. 1977 in Prague) is a Czech artist who works in, and with, the medium of photography. Jirí Ptácek (b. 1975 in Prague) is an independent curator and art columnist. He has collaborated on dozens of exhibitions of Czech artists in both Czech and Slovak galleries. Between 2012 and 2020, he was the curator of Fotograf Gallery in Prague.

The Sufi master Abu 'l-Hasan al-Kharqani asserted that the human state contains seventeen chief ruinous traits, each of which resembles a great tree, with main branches, smaller branches, twigs and leaves, all laden with various kinds of negativity. At the same time, human beings were granted six tremendous powers from the Divine: the power of attraction; the power of manifesting God's blessings; the power of intercession for those who oppress themselves; the power of directing the heart of seekers; the power of guidance; and the power to move in time and space. The path from submersion in the negative traits to the unveiling of these six powers is known as the Migration to Perfected Character. Consisting of ten steps, it leads one from the ruinous aspects of the arrogant self, to achieve the state of satisfaction with the Divine decree and to achieve gnostic knowledge on the way to complete realization. Through a ten step program Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, a master of the Naqshbandi Sufi Path, describes the science of eliminating the seventeen ruinous characteristics of the tyrannical ego, to achieve purification of the soul. The sincere seeker who follows these steps, with devotion and discipline, will acheive an unveiling of the six powers which lie dormant within every human heart.

The book is about Italian perceptions of the Ottomans from Renaissance until the nineteenth century within the framework of political history. It is based on ample documentation of pontifical sources on the Ottomans from the Vatican Library and other archives, as well as Venetian and Italian literature on the Ottomans. Most of the pontifical sources belong to lesser known authors and come from unpublished sources with transcription in Italian and translation in English with commentary, among them Monsignor Marcello Marchesi, pontifical diplomat and councilor to Emperor Rudolf II during the Long War in Hungary, and Angelo Petricca da Sonnino, vicar apostolic in Istanbul and head of Propaganda Fide. In addition the book presents the contrasting views of the Ottomans vis-à-vis the Europeans from Turkish second-hand sources.
