In kaum einem Land ausserhalb Deutschlands wurde die Kritische Theorie so intensiv gelesen wie in Amerika. Fur die Ubersetzung, Verbreitung und Diskussion der Schriften Theodor W. Adornos, Max Horkheimers, Herbert Marcuses und anderer spielten die Zeitschriften Telos und New German Critique, die im Schatten der Studentenbewegung der 1960er Jahre und einer Renaissance des Marxismus gegrundet wurden, eine entscheidende Rolle. Robert Zwarg rekonstruiert erstmals die ungeheuer produktive Rezeption der Kritischen Theorie bis in die 1990er Jahre und fragt nach ihrer Transformation. Seine Historisierung der Kritischen Theorie, die Annaherung an ihren Zeitkern, bedient sich dabei ihrer eigenen Mittel. Wie wurde eine im Deutschland der Zwischenkriegszeit entstandene Denktradition zum Ausweg aus der Krise der amerikanischen Neuen Linken? Vermochten die Texte der Kritischen Theorie bei der Reise uber den Atlantik ihre analytische Kraft zu bewahren? Zwarg zeigt, welche Hoffnungen sich an die Praxis der Theorie knupften und wie sich die Ideen der Frankfurter Theoretiker unter den veranderten historischen und gesellschaftlichen Bedingungen wandelten. Die Geschichte akademischer Erfolge ist zugleich eine Geschichte philosophischer und politischer Zweifel, die viel uber die Unterschiede zwischen der Alten und der Neuen Welt verraten.

Neuware - Walter Keller gründete 1978 Der Alltag - Sensationen des Gewöhnlichen, 1984 mit Bice Curiger, Jacqueline Burckhardt und Peter Blum zusammen die Kunstzeitschrift Parkett, 1991 den Fotobuchverlag Scalo - Books and Looks, 1993 dann die Gründung des Fotomuseum Winterthur. Ein eindrückliches Palmarès. Aber dürftig verglichen mit der überbordenden Kreativität, Neugier, Inspiration und Energie, mit der Walter Keller fast 40 Jahre lang Freunde, Feinde, Journalisten, Galeristen, Ausstellungsmacher, Fotografen, Publizisten, Grafiker und Sammler irritierte, faszinierte, motivierte und mit seinem Insistierenzur Verzweiflung trieb. In der Nacht auf den 1. November 2014 verstarb Walter Keller völlig überraschend; mitten in den Vorbereitungen zu Ausstellungen über Dürrenmatt und den Kalten Krieg, über zeitgenössische chinesische Fotografie und tausend weiteren Ideen. Walter Keller war Verleger, Motivator, Blattmacher, Coach und Netzwerker, aber vor allem ein hinreissender Freund und mitreissender Weggenosse. Das Buch will nicht beleuchten und erklären, was er gemacht hat, sondern wie er sein Umfeld grundsätzlich zu Exponaten seiner Weltausstellung machte und warum. Herausgegeben, begleitet, kuratiert, verfasst, produziert wird es von Menschen, deren Leben Walter verändert und bereichert hat. Das Buch wird keine Chronologie von Walter Kellers Schaffen sein, sondern ein impressionistisches wie selektiv-subjektives Sammelsurium seiner ungezähmten Originalität.

“A heart of darkness beats within this sparkling series. Fizzy with charm yet edged with menace, Andrew Wilson’s Christie novels do Dame Agatha proud. Perfect for fans of Ruth Ware and Jacqueline Winspear.” —A.J. Finn, internationally bestselling author of The Woman in the Window Queen of Crime Agatha Christie returns to star in another stylish mystery, as she travels to the excavation of the ancient city of Ur where she must solve a crime with motives that may be as old as civilization itself.Fresh from solving the gruesome murder of a British agent in the Canary Islands, mystery writer Agatha Christie receives a letter from a family who believe their late daughter met with foul play. Before Gertrude Bell overdosed on sleeping medication, she was a prominent archaeologist, recovering ancient treasures in the Middle East. Found near her body was a letter claiming that Bell was being followed. To complicate things further, Bell was competing with another archeologist, Mrs. Woolley, for the rights to artifacts of immense value. Christie travels to far-off Persia, where she meets the enigmatic Mrs. Woolley as she is working on a big and potentially valuable discovery. Temperamental but brilliant, Mrs. Woolley quickly charms Christie but when she does not hide her disdain for the recently deceased Miss Bell, Christie doesn’t know whether to trust her—or if Bell’s killer is just clever enough to hide in plain sight. With Wilson’s signature “strong characters, shrewd plotting and a skillful blending of fact and fiction” (Shelf Awareness, starred review on A Talent for Murder), this is a thrilling adventure based on real events in Christie's life and set amidst the cursed ruins of an ancient land.

Following hard on the heels of Kushiel's Dart, Jacqueline Carey's spectacular debut novel, comes Kushiel's Chosen, a glittering and riveting historical fantasy.The land of Terre d'Ange is a place of unsurpassed beauty and grace. It is said that the angels found the land and saw it was good, and the ensuing race that rose from the seed of angels and men live by one simple rule: Love as thou wilt.Phèdre nó Delaunay is a young woman who was born with a scarlet mote in her left eye and sold into indentured servitude as a child.

And those who escaped the wrath of the mighty are not yet done with their schemes for power and revenge. To protect and serve, Phèdre will once again leave her beloved homeland. From the sun-drenched villas of La Serenissima to the wilds of old Hellas, from a prison designed to drive the very gods mad to an island of immutable joy.
