A stunning oeuvre of text-based installations, accompanied by a limited edition signed print German artist Daniel Rode (born 1971) makes serial, large-scale installations and drawings inspired by found and overheard fragments of text, divorcing the words from their original context and obscuring their legibility. This volume contains a silkscreen print signed by the artist, in an edition of 50.
Daniel Rode works with text fragments found in literature, conversations, and public space, deliberately disregarding syntax such as spaces and line breaks. Interrupting our reading habits, they retain their indeterminacy a little longer before these fragments can be decoded by reading. Detached from their original contexts, they find their way into both large-scale installations and drawings, often created in series. Rode moves between two polar opposites-a sober, reserved aesthetic on the one hand, and a sensitive, almost tender devotion to artistic execution on the other. Again and Again offers a comprehensive insight into Rode's oeuvre, enriched by perceptive texts by 13 contributors providing an often surprisingly personal perspective on the artist and his work. DANIEL RODE (*1971, Eutin) studied in Greifswald and the Academy of Fine Arts Dresden in the class of Monika Brandmeier. He lived in Cairo from 2009 to 2014. Projects and residencies have taken him to Canada, the USA, Bahrain, Vietnam and many countries in Europe. Today, he lives in Dresden and Berlin.

For good reason, the second and third days of the Battle of Gettysburg have received the lion's share of attention from historians. With this book, however, the critical first day's fighting finally receives its due. After sketching the background of the Gettysburg campaign and recounting the events immediately preceding the battle, Harry Pfanz offers a detailed tactical description of events of the first day. He describes the engagements in McPherson Woods, at the Railroad Cuts, on Oak Ridge, on Seminary Ridge, and at Blocher's Knoll, as well as the retreat of Union forces through Gettysburg and the Federal rally on Cemetery Hill. Throughout, he draws on deep research in published and archival sources to challenge many long-held assumptions about the battle.
