Ukraine at War
A unique book that showcases how Ukrainian society is expressing itself through art. War came to Ukraine in February 2022; it was uninvited—although not entirely unexpected given Russia’s steady, massive troop build-up on Ukraine’s eastern border over the winter. When war exploded, millions of people around the world watched it compulsively on TV. Daoud Sarhandi-Williams—author of the internationally–acclaimed Bosnian War Posters—traveled to Ukraine in the summer of 2022 to photograph street art. He gathered a lot more images besides—as well as a trove of extraordinary war poetry by Ukrainian citizens, shared internationally here for the first time. The author brings all these ...
Bosnian War Posters
Bosnian War Posters is a unique compilation of posters and political graphic design. It includes key archive photos from the war as well as new photos that put all the images in context today. This book illustrates the entire conflict: from April 1992—when the first shots were fired in Sarajevo—to December 1995—when peace was agreed upon in Dayton, Ohio. Subsequent images depict the post-war reconstruction period and the hunt for war criminals. The posters were gathered together in Bosnia and the former Yugoslavia shortly after the Bosnian war ended. They form the only large, pan-Bosnian collection of such material that exists, offering an eye-witness account of the war from the point of view of those who lived through all its horrors. A unique pictorial study of the bloodiest European conflict since 1945, Bosnian War Posters will engage all those interested in graphic design, poster art, the tragic story of Yugoslavia, and the politics of nationalism in the modern age.

Evil Doesn't Live Here
For most outsiders, the Bosnian War was played out in the brief, flickering images of television news. But another set of images played an active role in this war, moulding public sentiment and calling attention to the plight of the Bosnian people. For three years, Bosnians plastered the walls of their towns with messages of anger, frustration, desperation, resistance and hope. These images, the focus of this book, are juxtaposed with the diverse works of propaganda that served the practitioners of ethnic cleansing. Evil Doesn't Live Here presents this visusl battle to the rest of the world.
Die Strauss-Dynastie
Die Strauss-Dynastie – das sind Johann Strauss Vater und seine Söhne Johann, Josef und Eduard, sowie im 20. Jahrhundert Johann Strauss Enkel und Eduard Strauss II. Diese Musiker prägten, ausgehend von Wien, das musikalische europäische Geschehen vom Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die 30er-Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts komponierend und in Person von Eduard Strauss bis 1969 dirigierend maßgeblich. Claus Kegel legt nun mit diesem Band eine Aufführungs- und Rezeptionsgeschichte vor, die von 1801 bis 1849 reicht und die beste Voraussetzung dafür ist, das durch viele Klischees verzerrte Bild der "Walzerkönige" auf die Fakten zurückzuführen und der Lebensgeschichte der Familie Strauss auf die Spur zu kommen.

Rifqa
Rifqa is Mohammed El-Kurd’s debut collection of poetry, written in the tradition of Ghassan Kanafani’s Palestinian Resistance Literature. The book narrates the author’s own experience of dispossession in Sheikh Jarrah--an infamous neighborhood in Jerusalem, Palestine, whose population of refugees continues to live on the brink of homelessness at the hands of the Israeli government and US-based settler organizations. The book, named after the author’s late grandmother who was forced to flee from Haifa upon the genocidal establishment of Israel, makes the observation that home takeovers and demolitions across historical Palestine are not reminiscent of 1948 Nakba, but are in fact a continuation of it: a legalized, ideologically-driven practice of ethnic cleansing.
