Weihnachten sei ein Fest für Spießer, findet Markus, Literaturprofessor, und "bereits älter, als Schiller jemals werden durfte". Und so will er wie jedes Jahr an die See flüchten, dieses Mal jedoch in die Zweisamkeit. Freundin Johanna allerdings hat für die Feiertage andere Pläne. Unter Aufbringung sämtlicher weiblicher Raffinessen konfrontiert sie Markus mit all seinen vermeintlichen Schwächen und Problemen; will ihn aus seiner lethargischen Bequemlichkeit erwecken, an der die junge Beziehung bereits nach wenigen Monaten zu zerbrechen droht. Selbst vor einer "zufälligen" Begegnung mit Markus' Erzfeind Matthias Matthäus macht sie nicht Halt. Dieser hat mit der Behauptung, Schiller ...

Its establishment was made possible by an endowment from Leopold Koppel, granted on the condition that Fritz Haber, well-known for his discovery of a method to synthesize ammonia from its elements, be made its director.

This little book has been written at the suggestion of the Society for the Protection of Science and Learning. That body was the successor of the Academic Assistance Council which was formed in 1933 by heads of British Universities and learned Societies to assist scholars and scientists and investigators "who, on grounds of religion, political opinion or race, were unable to carryon their work in their own country". They were, at the time of the formation of the Society, particularly, but not exclusively, refugees from Nazi oppression, and deprived of their academic posts on one of these grounds. But they soon embraced refugees from other tyrannies. The British example was followed by simila...
