Reise mit zwei Koffern
Die Erinnerungen der Wiederentdeckerin der Werke Felix Nussbaums - mit großer Klarheit und bewegend geschrieben. Die Wiederentdeckung der Kunstwerke des 1944 im KZ Auschwitz-Birkenau ermordeten Malers Felix Nussbaum ist ganz wesentlich seiner Cousine Auguste zu verdanken. Sie war seit den 1950er Jahren die treibende Kraft bei der Rettung seiner Bilder, von denen heute ein Großteil im Felix-Nussbaum-Haus in Osnabrück zu sehen ist. Gustel Moses-Nussbaum lebt in der Nähe von Tel Aviv. Ihre Wohnung ist angefüllt mit Erinnerungen: an ihre Kindheit in Deutschland vor 1933, an die Besuche der Familie bei den wohlhabenden Verwandten in Osnabrück, an den Beginn der nationalsozialistischen Verfo...

Elders share their stories to a group of youngsters who ask them questions on a variety of topics such as the land, trees, plants, rules, incidents, death rituals and spirits.

Death and the Regeneration of Life
It is a classical anthropological paradox that symbols of rebirth and fertility are frequently found in funerary rituals throughout the world. The original essays collected here re-examine this phenomenon through insights from China, India, New Guinea, Latin America, and Africa. The contributors, each a specialist in one of these areas, have worked in close collaboration to produce a genuinely innovative theoretical approach to the study of the symbolism surrounding death, an outline of which is provided in an important introduction by the editors. The major concern of the volume is the way in which funerary rituals dramatically transform the image of life as a dialectic flux involving excha...
Little Ida's Flowers
Little Ida liked the student, who always had a tale to tell, a lot. So, one morning, when little Ida's flowers had all withered, she asked the student what could have happened to them. Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.
