Poetry, literature, music and films are always trying to touch sensitive strings when it comes to love and infatuation. Who hasn't seen the film Titanic or the book Wuthering Heights and who isn't familiar with Olga and Erik from Turkish delight, who are head over heels in love? But when we try to fathom what love and infatuation are at their core, we often fall silent. The ancient, wise Greeks described infatuation as a temporary form of madness, and when you awoke from this semi-comatose state, you saw things much more clearly again. Philosophers hardly dared to approach this phenomenon. Nevertheless, Frank decided to give it a try, partly on the basis of historical lovers. The happy couple Francesco and Bianca de Medici served as a model. What makes a healthy and successful love relationship in 2019, what are the pitfalls and does the swan relationship still have a future for life?

Poesie, Literatur, Musik und Filme versuchen immer wieder, sensible Saiten in Sachen Liebe und Verliebtheit zu berühren. Wer kennt nicht den Film Titanic oder das Buch Wuthering Heights und wer kennt nicht die bis über beide Ohren verliebten Olga und Erik aus Türkische Früchte? Doch wenn wir versuchen zu ergründen, was Verliebtheit und Liebe im Kern ausmacht, wird es oft still. Die alten, weisen Griechen bezeichneten die Verliebtheit als eine vorübergehende Form des Wahnsinns, und wenn man aus diesem halbkomatösen Zustand erwacht war, sah man die Dinge wieder viel klarer. Philosophen wagten sich kaum an dieses Phänomen heran. Frank beschloss dennoch, einen Versuch zu wagen, zum Teil anhand von historischen Liebespaaren. Als Vorbild diente das glückliche Paar Francesco und Bianca de Medici. Was macht eine gesunde und erfolgreiche Liebesbeziehung im Jahr 2019 aus, welche Fallstricke gibt es und hat die Schwanenbeziehung fürs Leben noch eine Zukunft?

In Jenevercity, Mayor Pearl-chain is in dire straits, accused of cronyism, abuse of power and creating a culture of fear. The democratically elected heavyweights of the city council fly in the integrity agency You Call and We Deliver to deal with her "independently and thoroughly". The heads of this bureau, Long Jake, Ant and Colt, will piggyback her. Ex-journalist Tick is working overtime in his anonymous and vicious internet forum, constantly spewing thousands of smears, slanders and Indian stories into the ether through his tightly managed whispering campaign. The vox populi is foaming at the mouth demanding redress and Sting, Pear-chain's vindictive employee, is scheming like mad. All the building blocks are in place for a crazy tragicomedy with plenty of intrigue, black humour and a surprising denouement. This little book is inspired by Dante's Inferno, the 5th gorge of the Maleboge.

In Jenevercity ist Bürgermeisterin Paarelketting in arger Bedrängnis und wird der Vetternwirtschaft, des Machtmissbrauchs und der Schaffung einer Kultur der Angst beschuldigt. Die demokratisch gewählten Schwergewichte des Stadtrats lassen die Integritätsbehörde You Ask and We Turn einfliegen, um sich "unabhängig und sorgfältig" mit ihr zu befassen. Die Leiter dieses Büros, Lange Jaap, Werkmier und Colt, werden den VVD Huckepack nehmen. Der Ex-Journalist Teek macht in seinem anonymen und bösartigen Internetforum Überstunden und spuckt durch seine straff geführte Flüsterkampagne ständig Tausende von Verleumdungen, Verleumdungen und Indianergeschichten in den Äther. Die vox populi fordert mit Schaum vor dem Mund Wiedergutmachung und Steekel, der rachsüchtige Mitarbeiter von Paarelketting, intrigiert wie verrückt. Alle Bausteine sind vorhanden für eine verrückte Tragikomödie mit vielen Intrigen, schwarzem Humor und einer überraschenden Auflösung. Dieses kleine Buch ist inspiriert von Dantes Inferno, der 5. Schlucht der Maleboge.

De geopolitieke verhoudingen gaan de komende decennia sterk veranderen. Vanaf Shanghai tot Rotterdam wordt via een hypermoderne, breed vertakte infrastructuur over de grootste landmassa ter wereld met 2/3 van de wereldbevolking aan elkaar verbonden. China gaat de komende jaren flink economisch aan de weg timmeren en zal zo is de verwachting de VS gaan overvleugelen. Welke strategische koers gaat Europa varen? Omdat de VS geen 2e viool op het wereldtoneel zal willen spelen liggen geopolitieke spanningen en zelfs grootschalige militaire confllcten op de loer. De auteur schetst voor China en Rusland een rooskleurig toekomstperspectief en voor de VS een potentieel doemscenario.

Die Geschichte von Sparta ist legendär. Der Autor beginnt seine Reise im Jahr 1888 v. Chr. in einer kleinen Siedlung auf dem Peloponnes, um über die Route Sparta Rotterdam 1888 bis zum heutigen Ort Sparta zu gelangen. Die Götter setzen dich auf das Pferd, nur um dich unbarmherzig wieder abzustoßen. Dieses Buch zeichnet die frühe Geschichte Spartas bis zur Gründung des Stadtstaates Sparta um 1100 v. Chr. nach und setzt dann diese historische Reise durch die vielen Höhen und Tiefen des Stadtstaates fort, der Freund und Feind gleichermaßen in Ehrfurcht versetzte. Neben den gesammelten Werken von Herodot, Thukydides und Plutarch liefern unzählige andere Quellen Input. Wo es Lücken gab, wurden sie mit dem gesunden Menschenverstand gefüllt. Sparta inspirierte meist unwissentlich auch totale Regime, auch in der ehemaligen Sowjetunion. Kann Sparta Rotterdam groß träumen und es mit der eisernen Disziplin und Furchtlosigkeit des alten Sparta aufnehmen und es mit Leicester in England aufnehmen? Am Ende des Buches hält Frank Lycurgus den Spiegel unserer heutigen Gesellschaft vor und kommt zu überraschenden Schlussfolgerungen

The history of Sparta is legendary. The author starts his journey in 1888 BC in a small settlement on the Peloponnese to continue via the route Sparta Rotterdam 1888 to the present-day hamlet of Sparta. The gods put you on the horse only to ruthlessly knock you off again. This book traces the early history of Sparta up to the foundation of the city-state of Sparta in roughly 1100 BC and then continues this historical journey through the many highs and lows of the city-state that inspired awe in friend and foe alike. Besides the collected works of Herodotos, Thucydides and Plutarchus, countless other sources provide input. Where gaps existed, they were filled in based on common sense. Sparta mostly unwittingly also inspired total regiems, including in the former Soviet Union. Can Sparta Rotterdam dream big and match the iron discipline and fearlessness of the old Sparta and go for stunts like Leicester in England? At the end of the book, Frank holds up a mirror of Lycurgus to our current society and comes to surprising conclusions
