Walking in Berlin
The first English translation of a lost classic that reinvents the flaneur in Berlin. Franz Hessel (1880–1941), a German-born writer, grew up in Berlin, studied in Munich, and then lived in Paris, where he moved in artistic and literary circles. His relationship with the fashion journalist Helen Grund was the inspiration for Henri-Pierre Roche's novel Jules et Jim (made into a celebrated 1962 film by Francois Truffaut). In collaboration with Walter Benjamin, Hessel reinvented the Parisian figure of the flaneur. This 1929 book—here in its first English translation—offers Hessel's version of a flaneur in Berlin. In Walking in Berlin, Hessel captures the rhythm of Weimar-era Berlin, recor...

Summary of Amy Webb & Andrew Hessel's The Genesis Machine
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Bill, a student in Duxbury, Massachusetts, was a gifted student with wide-ranging interests in photography, math, and journalism. But in other ways, he was unremarkable. He was constantly thirsty, and his parents took him to the doctor, who found that his blood sugar was elevated. #2 Bill’s parents were told that it was just bad genes, but there was a silver lining: a treatment regimen that would require him to manually perform all the tasks that his body should have been doing automatically. #3 The clinical symptoms of type 1 diabetes were first recorded some 3,000 years ago in Egypt. It was another 1,500 years before Aretaeus, a Cappadocian physician who spoke Greek, described a melting down of the flesh and limbs into urine, a condition he named diabetes after the Greek word for siphon. #4 The treatment worked in dogs, and it was later used on humans. It was the discovery of insulin that changed the course of life for millions of people worldwide.

The Turn of the Century
Rewritten versions of contributions to an international conference held at the University of Antwerp in May 1992. Starting point for the conference was the vagueness of the very terms 'modernism' and 'modernity'. In the first section a group of comparatists address the theoretical and terminological problems of modernism. Practical readings of modernist writers; discussions of different modernist movements; and, the work of critics who have contributed to debates about modernism make up the second section. The third section looks at the problem of modernism from an interartistic and interdisciplinary perspective.
The Art of Taking a Walk
Anke Gleber examines one of the most intriguing and characteristic figures of European urban modernity: the observing city stroller, or flaneur. In an age transformed by industrialism, the flaneur drifted through city streets, inspired and repelled by the surrounding scenes of splendor and squalor. Gleber examines this often elusive figure in the particular contexts of Weimar Germany and the intellectual sphere of Walter Benjamin, with whom the concept of flanerie is often associated. She sketches the European influences that produced the German flaneur and establishes the figure as a pervasive presence in Weimar culture, as well as a profound influence on modern perceptions of public space....
