Broken Lives
The gripping stories of ordinary Germans who lived through World War II, the Holocaust, and Cold War partition—but also recovery, reunification, and rehabilitation Broken Lives is a gripping account of ordinary Germans who came of age under Hitler and whose lives were scarred and sometimes destroyed by what they saw and did. Drawing on six dozen memoirs by Germans born in the 1920s, Konrad Jarausch chronicles the unforgettable stories of people who not only lived through the Third Reich, World War II, the Holocaust, and Cold War partition, but also participated in Germany's astonishing postwar recovery, reunification, and rehabilitation. Bringing together the voices of men and women, perpetrators and victims, Broken Lives offers new insights about persistent questions. Why did so many Germans support Hitler through years of wartime sacrifice and Nazi inhumanity? How did they finally distance themselves from the Nazi past and come to embrace human rights? The result is a powerful portrait of the experiences of average Germans who journeyed into, through, and out of the abyss of a dark century.
An Apology for Pictures
Illustrierte Bücher sind für viele Kinder der Einstieg ins eigene Lesen, nachdem Oma oder Papa ihnen vorgelesen und ihren 'Leseappetit' geweckt haben. Mit etwas Glück werden sie bald eifrige, sprachgewandte und weltoffene Leser:innen. Die Bilder in einem gedruckten Text erleichtern den Zugang zu den sperrigen Buchstabenfolgen, indem sie ein Vorverständnis bereitstellen. Das gilt auch für erwachsene Leser:innen, denen das Lesen durch Illustrationen auf diese Weise attraktiv und gelingend wird, dass es bald zu ihrem Alltag gehört. So haben viele Menschen in der Zeit zwischen den Weltkriegen in Frankreich, Deutschland und Großbritannien immer öfter zu den in großer Zahl angebotenen preiswerten Büchern mit Holzschnitten gegriffen und sind selbst zu Leser:innen und Sammler:innen geworden. Die vergleichende Untersuchung dieser illustrierten Erzähltexte zeigt, wie verschieden die Entwicklung in den drei Ländern war, und bietet eine systematische Einführung in die verschiedenen Illustrationsformen und ihre Wechselwirkungen mit den Texten.

Ghosts Like Us
3 eras, 3 women: linked by Berlin, performance art, and a poem In the 1890s young poet Erika Kieler attends the most progressive artistic salon in Berlin to perform her poem inspired by a visitor from the capital of the Ottoman Empire. In 1989, just before the Wall comes down, punk artist Trudi Zahn performs her own version of the same poem in an East Berlin club. And in 2009 Lottie Hoffmann prepares to perform Trudi's work at a cabaret for the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The story explores the drive for women's authentic creativity and personal freedom, cross-cultural exchange, interpretations of history, artistic influence, and a universe in which ghosts appear.
