As a nation, we should preserve our social memory by honoring those who paved the way for us to exist, recognizing those who etched their indelible mark on our lives, and remembering those who went to the great beyond before us as expressed in the Salute to the Dearly Departed segment (People); our regions, areas, and territories; our locales, hotspots, and hangouts and places we love to visit and events we constantly attend in (Places), and the happenings and the things that we cherish to death - items, commodities, artifacts, and products (Things). So dear readers, enjoy the mind "triggers" and heart-wrenching "diggers" you will find in this book honouring the 55th year of celebrating Jamaica's independence and the tantalizing trip down memory lane with this unofficial reference/resource guide by your side. You will recollect who is who (people), where is where (places), and what is what (things) in both the Jamaican and the Diaspora/Global context.
The vital synergy between dress and the cinema has been in place since the advent of film. Broaching topics such as vampires, noir, and Marie Antoinette looks, Fashion in Film uncovers the way in which the alliance of these two powerhouse industries use myriad cultural influences—shaping narrative, national identity, and all points in between. Contributor essays address international films from early cinema to the present, drawing on the classic and the innovative. This abundantly illustrated collection reveals that fashion in conjunction with film must be understood in a different way from fashion tout simple.
The third part of this saga is a prequel that revolves around the character named Jivah. This work is divided into several sections based on the most important incarnations of Jivah. Thus, the first account is when Jivah was the biblical Eve, narrating how she met Fanvar (the biblical Adam) and how she was deceived by the ministers of the archons who guarded Meruah (a garden that was to the east of the site of E-Din ). Here Jivah recounts the judgment of Ialdabaot for the actions that occurred in Meruah and the damage caused by the ministers of the archons to her lineage. The following story revolves around another of the most important incarnations of Jivah, when she was Mariam, the wife of...
In Europe, love has been given a prominent place in European self-representations from the Enlightenment onwards. The category of love, stemming from private and personal spheres, was given a public function and used to distinguish European civilisation from others. Contributors to this volume trace historical links and analyse specific connections between the two discourses on love and Europe over the course of the twentieth century, exploring the distinctions made between the public and private, the political and personal. In doing so, this volume develops an innovative historiography that includes such resources as autobiographies, love letters, and cinematic representations, and takes issue with the exclusivity of Eurocentrism. Its contributors put forth hypotheses about the historical pre-eminence of emotions and consider this history as a basis for a non-Eurocentric understanding of new possible European identities.

Natürlich war Adam Czupek nicht der Richtige für sie. Ein Mann, der mit den Händen arbeitete, einer, der Sprache für unwichtig hielt. Mit so einem Mann konnte man sich nicht sehen lassen, viel weniger noch sein Leben mit ihm verbringen. Dachten ihre Eltern. Aber was wussten sie, deren Ehe längst am Ende war, schon von der Liebe. Was wussten sie von Adam? Er baute Drachen für die Kinder, die sie bekamen, fand eine größere Wohnung. Das Leben wurde zum Abenteuer, als sie rauszogen aufs Land. Und als sie von Bauer Holzapfel die Streuobstwiese bekamen, hatte Adam schon längst einen Plan, wohin das alles führen sollte. Birgit Vanderbekes unkonventionelle Erzählerin lässt sich von Adam bezaubern und von seiner Art, das Leben anzugehen. »Das lässt sich ändern« ist ein klarer, leuchtender Roman über die Liebe, das Anderssein und über das Bekenntnis zu den einfachen Dingen.
