Twinkind

  • Categories: Art

An arresting illustrated history of twins in mythology, science, and visual culture Twins have captivated the imagination for centuries, occupying a unique place in our cultural and scientific history. Twinkind looks at twins in myth and legend; anatomy, sociology, and genetics; and as sources of spectacle, entertainment, and community. Drawing on hundreds of striking and sometimes haunting illustrations, William Viney examines depictions of twins as protagonists in creation stories ranging from Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca in Aztec mythology to Artemis and Apollo in Greek legend. He describes how twins have featured prominently in scientific research across the centuries, but especially in...

"Ich bin noch nie einem Juden begegnet ..."

"Ich bin noch nie einem Juden begegnet ...": Diesen Satz haben die meisten der rund 200.000 Jüdinnen und Juden, die heute in Deutschland leben, schon einmal gehört. Höchste Zeit also, mehr über den Reichtum und die Vielfalt jüdischen Lebens hierzulande zu erfahren. Gerhard Haase-Hindenberg erzählt die Geschichten der Kinder und Enkel von Shoah-Überlebenden, von Juden, die aus Russland, Israel und Amerika nach Deutschland gezogen sind, von der jiddischen Mamme und queeren Jüdinnen und Juden ebenso wie von Menschen, die aus den unterschiedlichsten Gründen zum Judentum konvertierten. Ihre Erfahrungen, ihre Hoffnungen und ihre Gefährdung durch den ansteigenden Antisemitismus verwebt Haase-Hindenberg gekonnt mit Erklärungen über jüdische Geschichte, Glaubenspraxis und Symbole. Wer den Menschen in den einfühlsamen Porträts nahegekommen ist, wird nicht mehr behaupten: "Ich bin noch nie einem Juden begegnet."

The Land Breakers

Set deep in the Appalachian wilderness between the years of 1779 and 1784, The Land Breakers is a saga like the Norse sagas or the book of Genesis, a story of first and last things, of the violence of birth and death, of inescapable sacrifice and the faltering emergence of community. Mooney and Imy Wright, twenty-one, former indentured servants, long habituated to backbreaking work but not long married, are traveling west. They arrive in a no-account settlement in North Carolina and, on impulse, part with all their savings to acquire a patch of land high in the mountains. With a little livestock and a handful of crude tools, they enter the mountain world—one of transcendent beauty and cruel necessity—and begin to make a world of their own. Mooney and Imy are the first to confront an unsettled country that is sometimes paradise and sometimes hell. They will soon be followed by others. John Ehle is a master of the American language. He has an ear for dialogue and an eye for nature and a grasp of character that have established The Land Breakers as one of the great fictional reckonings with the making of America.
