Holbein

  • Categories: Art

Stunning portraits by the renowned Renaissance artist illuminate fascinating figures from the European merchant class, intellectual elite, and court of King Henry VIII.

Accompanying the first major Holbein exhibition in the United States, this catalogue explores his vibrant visual and intellectual approach to personal identity. In addition to r...

In the 1990s, news stories began to circulate about declining caribou populations in the North. Were caribou the canary in the coal mine for climate change, or did declining numbers reflect overharvesting by Indigenous hunters or failed attempts at scientific wildlife management? Grounded in community-based research in northern Canada, a region in the forefront of co-management efforts, these collected stories and essays bring to the fore the insights of the Inuvialuit, Gwich’in, and Sahtú, people for whom caribou stewardship has been a way of life for centuries. Anthropologists, historians, political scientists, ecologists, and sociologists join forces with elders and community leaders t...

Die Oma und ihre drei Enkel

Enkel zu haben, ist etwas Wunderbares. Sie begegnen den Großeltern im Allgemeinen kindlich unverstellt und ehrlich und wenn es richtig genützt wird, sind sie ein wunderbares Bindeglied zwischen den Eltern und Großeltern innerhalb der familiären Bande. Großeltern müssen die Enkel nicht erziehen - obwohl sie sehr wohl Einfluss nehmen können. Sie dürfen ihnen ein Vorbild sein und sie verwöhnen. Die Enkel werden größer, reifer, müssen ihre eigenen Wege finden und kluge Großeltern bleiben mit ihnen dabei am Ball bei den rasant voranschreitenden Entwicklungen und somit auch ein stückweit im Herzen und Geist jung.
