A certain kind of alchemy takes place when you decorate from the heart and style with conviction.

Elegant, slippery, and provocative, Antiquity is a queer Lolita story by prize-winning Swedish author Hanna Johansson - a story of desire, power, obsession, observation, and taboo.Antiquity follows its unnamed narrator, a lonely woman in her thirties who becomes enamoured of a chic older artist, Helena, after interviewing her for a magazine. Helena invites the narrator to join her in the Greek city of Ermoupoli where she summers with her teenage daughter Olga. At first an object of jealousy, Olga morphs into an object of desire as the pull of Helena is transposed onto her daughter and the prospect of becoming someone's first, if perverse, lover.With echoes of Death in Venice, Call Me by Your Name, The Lover, and Lolita, but wholly original and contemporary, Antiquity probes the depths of memory, power, and the narratives that arrange our experience of the world.

A Guardian book to look out for in 2024An insightful exploration of the nature of inequality by the internationally bestselling author of Capital in the Twenty-First Century.In his newest work, Thomas Piketty explores how social inequality manifests itself very differently depending on the society and epoch in which it arises. History and culture play a central role, inequality being strongly linked to various socio-economic, political, civilisational, and religious developments. So it is culture in the broadest sense that makes it possible to explain the diversity, extent, and structure of the social inequality that we observe every day.Piketty briefly and concisely presents a lively synthesis of his work, taking up such diverse topics as education, inheritance, taxes, and the climate crisis, and provides exciting food for thought for a highly topical debate: Does natural inequality exist?

Die Wahrnehmung und das Verständnis von Landschaft sind auf der einen Seite erkenntnistheoretisch und politisch geprägt. Daher wird um das richtige Verständnis und die Interpretation in Diskursen zu Gerechtigkeit des Zugangs, Umgang mit Neophyten und Nachhaltigkeit im Klimawandel gerungen. Auf der anderen Seite ist Vegetation ein wesentliches Merkmal von Landschaft, das in seinen materiellen Eigenschaften nicht beliebig formbar oder politischen Vorstellungen und Absichten zu unterwerfen ist. Sie stellt gewohnte Wahrnehmungen und die Interessen an nachhaltiger Entwicklung bis hinein in die Herstellungsplanung von Vegetation vor Herausforderungen. Die Beiträger*innen dieser Festschrift für Stefan Körner machen die von ihm mitgeprägten Diskurse um Landschaft wie auch um die Erforschung der Vegetationsverwendung und -pflege zugänglich.

Die im Ersten Weltkrieg aufgetauchten Kampfpanzer blieben lange Zeit die Speerspitze der modernen Armeen. Ihre taktische und psychologische Schockwirkung war auf vielen Kriegsschauplätzen mitunter ein entscheidender Vorteil.Diese neue Konzept-Serie lässt den Leser in die Hölle des Krieges eintauchen: Tauchen Sie ein in das Herz der gepanzerten Einheiten, zusammen mit den Besatzungen, den Männern und Frauen, die ihr Leben in den Eingeweiden dieser Stahluhren riskieren. Verfolgen Sie ihr tragisches Schicksal und erleben Sie die großen Panzerschlachten von 1916 bis heute.
