Der große Psychoanalytiker Sudhir Kakar legt in diesem Band sein eigenes Leben "auf die Couch". Die tiefen und bleibenden Eindrücke, die das Leben in eine andere Bahn bringen, die Konflikte in der Familie, das Verblassen mancher Gefühle und die ständige Suche nach einem Ausgleich zwischen inneren Gewissheiten und äußeren Notwendigkeiten verwebt er zu einem beeindruckenden Selbstporträt. Wir verfolgen den Weg aus der Geborgenheit einer indischen Mittelschichtsfamilie im Punjab, damals noch Teil des britischen Kolonialreichs, sehen die seelischen Verwerfungen, die die gewaltsame Ablösung Pakistans hinterließ, erreichen das Deutschland der 1960er Jahre in Hamburg, Mainz und Mannheim und verfolgen schließlich die Karriere, die sich anbahnt, als Sudhir Kakar auf Erik Erikson trifft und sich unter seiner Ägide zu einem der großen Kulturvermittler zwischen Indien und dem Westen entwickelt. Sudhir Kakars Erinnerungen und Reflexionen erhellen nicht nur die Entfaltung der inneren Welt ...

Kroatische Kinder, die im deutschsprachigen Raum geboren sind, verfügen meist nicht einmal über fundamentale Kenntnisse der Sprache ihrer Großeltern. Daher bieten Kroatische Vereine und Gemeinden, Volkshochschulen und private Bildungseinrichtungen muttersprachliche Konversationskurse für den Nachwuchs der zahlreichen KroatInnen in Deutschland, Österreich und der Schweiz an. Allerdings gab es bisher kaum geeignetes, motivierendes Material für diese Zwecke auf dem Buchmarkt.Das neue farbig illustrierte Buch von Emeli Wethmar schließt jetzt diese Lücke. Insgesamt enthält es etwa 1.000 Lernwörter, die in 150 farbigen Abbildungen vermittelt werden. Die Konversationstexte beinhalten einfache Fragesätze, Aussagesätze und Verneinungssätze, besitzanzeigende Fürwörter, wichtige Verben und Eigenschaftswörter. Die Lektionen sind themenbezogen und altersgerecht: Zahlen, Farben, Begrüßung, auf dem Bauernhof, im Zoo, Obst, Schule, Freizeit/Urlaub etc.Das Lernprogramm eignet sich auch für Erwachsene, ...

In our modern world of smartphones, video games, wifi hotspots, and Netflix, it's hard to imagine that, less than eighty years ago, there were people in rural Arkansas who were still scratching a living off the land. What makes this book so very special and historically relevant is simple - This book was not written by some college professor who, with clinical indifference, made an extensive study into a bygone era and then wrote down his cold musings on life in those days. Instead, the author of this book relates his own experiences with humble honesty and wit-filled humor. His fond childhood recollections are framed by the wisdom of many years as he relates what life was like for himself and his family during the 1940's. Product details Format Hardback ...

Más que desamor, estos poemas suelen hablar de la desilusión, de la llovizna de ceniza que queda en los párpados después de cada desencanto. Del disfrute de la soledad y el alto precio de la independencia, que se paga a gusto si tu futuro no es colocarte un cartel de propiedad de nadie. Las dos orillas de Mariuccia se confunden en la misma, como ocurre con las noches más felices o con las más tristes. Hay también, en este su primer libro, un prudente optimismo; ese con el que abrimos la ventana sabiendo que por más que brille el sol volverá la tormenta y volveremos a temblar.

A realistic and emotional novel about a woman battling mental illness and societal pressures written by the iconic American writer Sylvia Plath. "It is this perfectly wrought prose and the freshness of Plath's voice in The Bell Jar that make this book enduring in its appeal." -- USA Today The Bell Jar chronicles the crack-up of Esther Greenwood: young, brilliant, beautiful, and enormously talented, but slowly going under--maybe for the last time. Sylvia Plath masterfully draws the reader into Esther's breakdown with such intensity that Esther's neurosis becomes completely understandable and even rational, as probable and accessible an experience as going to the movies. Such thorough exploration of the dark and harrowing corners of the psyche - and the profound collective loneliness that modern society has yet to find a solution for - is an extraordinary accomplishment, and has made The Bell Jar a haunting American classic. This P.S. edition features extra insigh...

From one of China's most acclaimed and decorated writers comes a powerful first-person account of life in Wuhan during the COVID-19 outbreak. On January 25, 2020, after the central government imposed a lockdown in Wuhan, acclaimed Chinese writer Fang Fang began publishing an online diary. In the days and weeks that followed, Fang Fang's nightly postings gave voice to the fears, frustrations, anger, and hope of millions of her fellow citizens, reflecting on the psychological impact of forced isolation, the role of the internet as both community lifeline and source of misinformation, and most tragically, the lives of neighbors and friends taken by the deadly virus. A fascinating eyewitness account of events as they unfold, Wuhan Diary captures the challenges of daily life and the changing moods and emotions of being quarantined without reliable information. Fang Fang finds solace in small domestic comforts and is inspired by the courage of friends, health professionals and volun...

Born into a Jewish ghetto in Hungary, as a child, Elie Wiesel was sent to the Nazi concentration camps at Auschwitz and Buchenwald. This is his account of that atrocity: the ever-increasing horrors he endured, the loss of his family and his struggle to survive in a world that stripped him of humanity, dignity and faith. Describing in simple terms the tragic murder of a people from a survivor's perspective, Night is among the most personal, intimate and poignant of all accounts of the Holocaust. A compelling consideration of the darkest side of human nature and the enduring power of hope, it remains one of the most important works of the twentieth century.
