Bardzo biała wrona. Tom 10
Natalia - miła, spokojna dziewczyna, poznaje Norberta – pozornie sympatycznego chłopaka z dobrej warszawskiej rodziny. Związek tej dwójki licealistów z każdym dniem staje się coraz bardziej mroczny, a Natalia przeżywa coś, czego żadna dziewczyna nigdy nie chciałaby doświadczyć. Skąd bierze się przemoc w związku? Jak to się dzieje, że zamiast wielkiej miłości przychodzi gorycz i rozczarowanie? Burzliwy związek Mileny i Witka, pary z powieści "Krzywe 10", podsuwa czytelnikom inne pytanie: dlaczego niszczymy to, na czym nam najbardziej zależy? I czym właściwie jest niewierność?
Playing Outside the Lines
Playing Outside the Lines: Collected Plays 1 is a compilation of theatre plays created by intercultural theatre artist Michael Devine. Produced in different countries, Devine created each of the ten plays working as an outsider far from his own community and its conventions, making use of local languages, themes, and stories from each culture. The goal of each play is not merely to hold a mirror up to nature but also to create a bridge between cultures. This is a fascinating collection that pushes the boundaries of what plays can be and is sure to challenge the expectations of readers and audience members alike.
Acting and Connecting
This fine collection of papers is the successful outcome of an international research project carried out by advanced undergraduate and graduate students from four different countries. Exceptionally, the papers do not rehash old ideas or themes but offer a fresh approach to a wide range of topics from language, literature and culture. This innovative attitude is the result of newly devised empirical methods of research, which clearly show that these students are well on their way to becoming inventive and resourceful researchers. The book connects three important themes and acts upon them. First, it provides empirical studies of literary texts and experiences, once again proving the value of empirical studies of literature. It thereby nicely forecasts the future of literary studies. Secondly, it highlights the connections between research groups in different continents, showing the strength of international collaborations. It thereby nicely forecasts the future of intercultural research. Thirdly, it presents work from students, illustrating upcoming talent. It thereby nicely forecasts the future of academia.

Das siebte, nachchristliche Jahrhundert: Eine Zeit des Umbruchs, des Neubeginns! Das (West-)römische Reich existiert schon lange nicht mehr. Die Hunnen existieren nicht mehr als eigenes Volk, an ihre Stelle sind die Awaren getreten. Die Reiche der Ostgoten und Gepiden existieren nicht mehr.

Auf der arabischen Halbinsel wird der Islam gegründet. Was aber geschah im Bereich des heutigen Bayerischen Walde...
Atlantic Bridges
In the postD9/11 era of heightened security awareness, conflicting strategies for containing and combating security risks have strained relations between the United States and the European Union despite common goals. Atlantic Bridges argues that the U.S. must resist the temptation to focus its diplomatic efforts on bilateral agreements with those European countries in closest alignment to it, and instead use its dependable and durable partners among the central and eastern European states to develop more predictable and productive relations with the EU for the sake of long-term stability.

Fe y Desplazamiento
Durante décadas, la nación de Colombia ha sufrido el flagelo del desplazamiento forzado debido al conflicto armado, lo cual ha dejado más de ocho millones sin hogar y sin tierra. Para responder ante esta crisis, los teólogos de la Fundación Universitaria Seminario Bíblico de Colombia crearon una metodología—la investigación-acción misional—a fin de entender el fenómeno del desplazamiento forzado, movilizar las iglesias del país y así fomentar la recuperación holística de las víctimas. Se involucraron docenas de estudiosos y profesionales de cuatro continentes, además de coinvestigadores seleccionados de las mismas comunidades desplazadas. La investigación abarcó los cam...
Hunted
BioTech ChemLabs continues to operate under a murderous vampire, with shifters hired to do his dirty work—no one has what it takes to stop him. Coverton is still plagued by kidnappings and murder, leaving only one thing left to do; betray everyone and everything one holds dear. That’s what Tia thought when she decided to take matters into her own hands. But when her past catches up to the present, what she had planned goes sideways and disrupts the fight for a safe future. Trust is hard-earned and not easy to give, but in order to do what needs to be done, Tia must learn to trust someone. Can she trust anyone she meets on the other side of the fight—including the shifter hired to hunt her down for her betrayal? Could trust really be the key to bringing down the cruelest company Coverton has ever seen and opening a heart that never wanted to be opened again? The Coverton Chronicles continues with book three, Hunted.
Scientific Methods for the Humanities
Here is a much needed introductory textbook on empirical research methods for the Humanities. Especially aimed at students and scholars of Literature, Applied Linguistics, and Film and Media, it stimulates readers to reflect on the problems and possibilities of testing the empirical assumptions and offers hands-on learning opportunities to develop empirical studies. It explains a wide range of methods, from interviews to observation research, and guides readers through the choices researchers have to make. It discusses the essence of experiments, illustrates how studies are designed, how to develop questionnaires, and helps readers to collect and analyze data by themselves. The book presents qualitative approaches to research but focuses mostly on quantitative methods, detailing the workings of basic statistics. At the end, the book also shows how to give papers at international conferences, how to draft a report, and what is involved in the preparation of a publishable article.
Children's Cultures after Childhood
Children’s Cultures after Childhood introduces theoretical concepts from new materialist and posthumanist childhood studies into research on children’s literature, film, and media texts with attention to the entanglements of which they are part. Thirteen chapters by international contributors from diverse disciplinary fields (literary studies, cultural studies, media studies, education, and childhood studies) offer a cross-section of empirical and theoretical approaches sharing an inspiration in the notion of “after childhoods”, proposed by Peter Kraftl, a children’s geographer, to conceptualize theoretical and methodological orientations in research on children’s lives and on past, present, and future childhoods. This interdisciplinary collection will be of interest to scholars working in children’s literature and culture studies, education, and childhood studies.
