Book Description
"Blumenstand" (German for Flowers-stand") is an almost comprehensive collection of the Author's nonscientific essays and miscellaneous writings covering a period of more than thirty-five years. The articles touch upon a great variety of both academic and non-academic topics from anthropology to sociology, from psychology to philosophy, from history to music, from literature to politics and political science, from religion to morality, from chess- playing to dart-playing, from horseracing and travel to whisky-distilling, etc. For the sake of levity, even some jokes and humorous anecdotes are included. However, there is no unifying theme as such, and neither the collection nor its presentation has any particular sequence or structure. The book is richly illustrated, as per topic relevance. It is sincerely hoped that this modest anthology will serve both informative and entertaining purposes. This is a recently completed original literary work, first published in December 2007. and re-published in July 2019.

Art in Battle
Author: Frode Sandvik
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 3838270142
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
The exhibition Art in Battle at KODE – Art Museums of Bergen portrays the battles over art initiated by Nazi policies for their European conquests. It examines propaganda exhibitions in occupied Norway as well as hitherto unseen art by soldiers stationed in Norway. This exceptional catalog documents this ground-breaking show and assembles leading experts on the history and ideology of Nazi cultural campaigns in both Germany and Norway to initiate a fresh discussion of the relationships between center and periphery within the art worlds of the Third Reich outside the overfamiliar dichotomy of “Degenerate“ versus “Great German“ art. Beyond historical re-assessment, this project also asks more pressingly: How do we encounter these battles over art today?

ABSOLUTE RELATIVITY and the RELATIVITY of the ABSOLUTE
Author: Frank Luger
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0359812155
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
This pilot study (same as "Weltwesen") followed the method of Euclid's "Elements", using 36 Definitions, one single Axiom, 3 Postulates, and their substantiation with analysis-synthesis, induction-deduction, and some representative literature from philosophy, logic, mathematics, physics, biology, and psychology in order to discuss the nature, structure, function, and human as well as nonhuman relevance of the Absolute beyond the 'limits' of the Universe. This interdisciplinary approach resulted in the conclusion that Ultimate Reality is the Absolute, which is the 'source and sink' of all Apparent or Virtual Reality. Having met the required criteria, this tentative theory may be called: "Absolute Relativity and the Relativity of the Absolute".

Eine Finca auf Mallorca
Author: Elke Menzel
Publisher: Reisebuch.de
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Für alle, in deren Köpfen der Gedanke herumspukt, vielleicht einmal nach Mallorca zu übersiedeln, dort unter warmer Mittelmeersonne zumindest einen Teil des Jahres zu verbringen, oder das alles bereits realisieren konnten, hat die Autorin dieses Buch geschrieben. In 40 Erzählskizzen plaudert sie aus dem Alltag einer Finca-Eignerin auf Mallorca - von den Licht- und von den Schattenseiten. Die Leichtigkeit des Seins in diesem vermeintlichen Paradies, die sich tatsächlich gelegentlich einstellt, wird zwar immer wieder durch Tücken, Widrigkeiten und ungeahnte Missverständnisse zeitweise aufgehoben, aber nie prinzipiell in Frage gestellt. Mit ihrer ironischen Grundhaltung, die sich hinter einem scheinbar arglosen Erzählton verbirgt, gelingt es Elke Menzel, den vielfältigen Absurditäten in einer fremd-vertrauten Welt standzuhalten und ihre Leser auf gekonnte Weise zu unterhalten oder auch - in einigen der Essays - zur Besinnung anzuregen. Der Text enthält viele Illustrationen der Autorin und wurde für die E-Book-Version behutsam überarbeitet sowie um einige Kapitel erweitert.

WALHALLAPLAN
Author: Frank Luger
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1387553429
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
This is a pseudoplay (the kind meant to be read, not seen on stage or screen) about the nature of Evil. The play begins with the real-live crucifixion of the main protagonist on Mount Zion in present-day Jerusalem and continues with five flashbacks in five Acts, examining Evil by means of the thoughts, actions and personality clashes of the various characters. The plot intensifies throughout the Acts, first with a crescendo at the end of Act One, then with another at the end of Act Three, and then with a final crescendo at the end of Act Five. The climax leads directly to the crucifixion scene in the Prologue. Finally, a resolution of the main problem is provided in the Epilogue, and it is shown how Evil may be harnessed and made to serve Good. The play thus ends on a note of hope and cautious optimism but without underestimating the power of Evil. It was written in December 1986, completed in March, 1987, and published for the first time in August, 2007, for the second in January, 2018.

ISBN: 0359809456
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
"Erwartungen"("Expectations")looks at the future using the star-ship Helios, commanded by Captain Genie Eos, in order to evaluate the expected evolution of Mirism, the ideology of Cosmic Man. The time-travel will be spiced with some humorous dialogues and sexy episodes, and major points of Mirism will be explained, depending on specific details. This final volume of the science-fiction trilogy is mostly concerned with the expectations, projections, and wishful thinking of a slowly dying man, Dr. Mir, both in the present and in the future. He is accompanied by his ever-faithful Genie, his beautiful (android) Swedish nurse, and ravishingly attractive Arab doctor, Halima Albari' whom he marries, and they have a son. She and Genie saved his life repeatedly, helped him to attain maximum possible contentment; but ultimately, they could not prolong his life. After he passed away, he was secretly cremated and his ashes were scattered in the gardens of the hospital where he was born.
