Bücher von Paul Lynch

'¿Das Lied des Propheten¿ ist große Literatur. Absolut lesenswert.'¿Das Erste - titel, thesen, temperamente¿An einem regennassen Abend in Dublin öffnet die Wissenschaftlerin und vierfache Mutter Eilish Stack ihre Haustür und steht zwei Beamten der neu gegründeten irischen Geheimpolizei gegenüber. Sie sind gekommen, um ihren Mann Larry, einen bekannten Gewerkschafter, zu verhören. Kurz nach dieser Begegnung verschwindet Larry, und sehr schnell beginnen die Dinge in Eilishs Welt aus dem Ruder zu laufen. Paul Lynchs meisterhafter Roman ist das Buch der Stunde - und ein Appell, die entstehenden autoritären Regime der Gegenwart zu bekämpfen. 'Es hat nur einmal in einem Jahrhundert einen Franz Kafka gegeben; und in diesem gibt es nur einen Paul Lynch.'¿NZZ

Explores Rene Girard's mimetic theory and repurposes it to invent a post-Christian "theorhetoric," a new way of speaking to, for, and especially about God. Advocates a rhetoric of meekness that conscientiously refuses rivalry, actively exploits tradition through complicit invention, and boldly seeks a holiness free of exclusionary violence.

The seas and oceans play a vital role in the earth's climate.One of the most important services the ocean provides to human society is the provision of food through captured fisheries and farms. This includes fish, invertebrates, plants and, for some cultures, marine mammals and seabirds for direct consumption or as feed in aquaculture or agriculture. These marine food sources have major benefits for human health and nutrition, economic returns and employment.Phytoplankton and algae form the basis of aquatic food webs. They are eaten by primary consumers such as zooplankton, small fish and crustaceans. Primary consumers are in turn eaten by fish, small sharks, coral and baleen whales. The ocean's top predators include large sharks, swordfish, dolphins, toothed whales and large seals. Humans consume aquatic organisms from every part of this food web.The seas and oceans are home to amazing species of animals.The Earth's oceans are home to millions of animal and plant species, as well as potentially millions more that are so far undiscovered. They are delicately balanced ecosystems and their healthy function is key to the balance of all life on Earth.

Animals are everywhere on earth. This means if we were to travel to every country and continent we would find an animal living there. Some animals live in a hot climate and some in a cold climate. Animals have been around for eons. Some animals like lizards, turtles, and fish have been around longer than dinosaurs have existed. Read this short non-fiction book and learn all you can about our most beloved animals.
