Dr. Wunderkammers oversættelser
Forvandlinger, ja, det var dr. Wunderkammers besættelse, det tema der forbandt hendes ellers vidt forskellige værker, og måske også det motiv der på forunderlig vis – på den mest mærkværdige og ligefrem groteske måde – kædede skaberen sammen med værket. En komponist lukker sig inde i orglet og skaber et nyt værk. I skoven skifter årstiderne, folk forandrer sig og bliver dræbt. I byen følger Orfeus en sommerfugl gennem Undergrunden, en bogsamlers drøm bliver et mareridt, pæne mennesker får ubudne gæster, en arkitekt tegner sin afsindige vision, og bag Københavns facade anes konturerne af andre byer ... "Lige noget for dig, der alligevel ikke skal sove i nat." – litteratursiden.dk "Strømsholt skriver som Italo Calvino, Umberto Eco og Murakami." – Bibliotekernes lektørudtalelse Thomas Strømsholt er en dansk forfatter. Han har udgivet et væld af noveller, som for de flestes vedkommende har det tilfælles, at de kredser om det overnaturlige, det uhyggelige, om gys og om gru.
Waffen SS
Waffen-SS udviklede sig i løbet af Det Tredje Riges historie fra en beskeden livgarde for Hitler til at være en multietnisk og transnational massehær, som over en million mand passerede igennem. Et af de mest forbløffende paradokser i moderne militærhistorie. Flertallet af soldaterne kom fra Tyskland, men styrkerne talte mænd fra hele Europa; syd og øst, såvel som nord og vest. Soldaterne i Waffen-SS blev indsat på stort set alle europæiske fronter og i alle former for krig og ugerninger. De deltog i Holocaust, blev indsat i partisanbekæmpelse på Balkan, kæmpede mod de allierede hære i Italien, gjorde tjeneste på Vestfronten og mødte Den Røde Hær på Østfronten fra Nordkap til Kaukausus. Historikerne Claus Bundgård Christensen, Niels Bo Poulsen og Peter Scharff Smith har skrevet den hidtil mest omfattende samlede historie om Waffen-SS
The Irish Mars: Bilingual Facsimile Edition
In the later years of the 17th century, as England and France fought for dominance in Europe, Ireland became their battlefield. Known as the Williamite War in Ireland, a coalition of the willing from England, Scotland, Holland and Denmark waged a campaign against Jacobite Ireland and the French forces of King Louis XIV. Once the war was over, Ireland would be forever changed. Remarkable and gripping, this is Andreas Claudianus' first-hand account of the Danish campaign in Ireland, presented for the first time in a bilingual English and Latin edition. Frank, brutal, and compelling, Claudianus provides a look at 17th century warfare not from the world of generals, princes, and kings, but from the perspective of the common foot soldier.
Screening Nostalgia
The Heimat film genre, assumed to be outdated by so many, is very much alive. Who would have thought that this genre - which has been almost unanimously denounced within academic circles, but which seems to resonate so deeply with the general public - would experience a renaissance in the 21st century? The genre's recent resurgence is perhaps due less to an obsession with generic storylines and stereotyped figures than to a basic human need for grounding that has resulted in a passionate debate about issues of past and present. This book traces the history of the Heimat film genre from the early mountain films to Fatih Akin's contemporary interpretations of Heimat.

Autobiography
4 lectures, Dornach, June 28 - July 18, 1923 (CW 350) "Truth and striving for truth must taste good to you; and lies, once you are conscious of them, must taste bitter and poisonous. You must not only know that human judgments have color, but also that printer's ink nowadays is mostly deadly nightshade juice. You must be able to experience this in all honesty and rectitude, and once you can do so, you will be in a state of spiritual transformation" (Rudolf Steiner). What is the relationship between coming to see the secrets of the universe and one's own view of the world? How far must one go before finding the higher worlds on the path of natural science? Do cosmic forces influence all of hu...
Linguistic Archaeology
Linguistic Archaeology provides students with an accessible introduction to the field of linguistic archaeology, both as theoretical framework and methodological toolkit, for understanding the conceptual foundations and practical considerations involved in reconstructing the prehistory of language. The book introduces the field’s expansion out of traditional approaches to focus more on the interplay of related disciplines and the reconstruction of human language beyond the written period. The opening chapter outlines key theories and charts their development from the nineteenth century through to today, drawing on work from computational historical linguistics, phylogenetics, and linguisti...
New Insights into Glomerulonephritis
Chronic kidney disease is a global major health issue that ultimately leads to end-stage renal disease, a devastating condition requiring costly renal replacement therapy. Given this background, extensive understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease and exploring novel therapeutic targets will help to alleviate disease progression, improve prognosis and reduce its impact on the global economic burden.Currently, primary glomerulonephritis is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease in China and many other countries. Recently, there has been much progress with regard to pathogenesis as well as treatment of primary glomerulonephritis. Clinical data from Chinese studies have significantly contributed to the making of international guidelines and histological classifications of the disease. This book focuses on the cutting-edge knowledge and provides up-to-date information on primary glomerulonephritis. Topics covered are IgA nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, and crescentic glomerulonephritis.
