She stacked some stones and inspires me to participate. That‘s how the love for the stones started. Since then I developed the balance of the stones. Wie geht denn so was? Sind diese Stein-Figuren geleimt? Nein. Jeder Stein hält auf eine andere Art. Manchmal bin ich selber überrascht. Die Kunst liegt darin, die Balance zu finden und die kleinsten Reibungspunkte und Widerstände zu finden. Wie machen Sie das? Oder arbeiten Sie mit Energie?

  • Som Folklorist Ämneshistoria
    Carl Wilhelm von Sydow von Wilhelm Carl Etnologer och antropologer studerar människan som kultur­ varelse i gången tid och nutid. Själva träder de vanligen tillbaka och fokuserar helt på »de andra». Men sedan humanistisk forskning mer och mer presenteras som ett samtal eller en be­ rättelse med olika parter måste ljuset också falla på forskarna själva. Biografisk forskning har glädjande nog på nytt fått in­ tresse inte bara bland allmänheten utan också i forskarvärlden. I denna bok gör författaren en ingående analys av folkmin­ nesforskningens grundare i Sverige Carl Wilhelm von Sydow (1878–1952). Vi får möta en fascinerande personlighet och följa hans kamp för sitt ämne i olika nätverk med såväl vänner som motståndare. Hans livsöde är nära sammanflätat med hans forskning. Boken är därför på en gång en biografi och ett stycke folklorist som ämneshistoria. Nils­Arvid Bringéus var under åren 1967–1991 innehavare av lärostolen i etnologi, särskilt europeisk, vid Lunds universitet. Boken avslutas med ett kåseri av Max von Sydow om sin far hållet i Lund 1988 och med en bibliografi av Jan­Öjvind Swahn, en av von Sydows sista lärjungar. Nils-ArvidBringéus Carl Wilhelm Kungl.

Bennett Jeffrey A. Grossman Volker Kaiser John L. Parker © 2018 Geraldine Poppke Suter Dedicated to the memory of Hans-Jürgen Wrede “Am Bahnhof stand ein Sauerampfer, sah immer nur Züge und nie einen Dampfer. Armer Sauerampfer.” — Hans-Jürgen Wrede, frei nach Joachim Ringelnatz Abstract This dissertation explores elements of objectification, artistic control, and power in three of Döblin’s plays: Lydia und Mäxchen, Comteß Mizzi, and Die Ehe. In the first chapter I address the nature of, and relationships between, characters and things that people these plays, and outline Döblin’s animation of props, and their elevation to the status of characters in his initial play Lydia und Mäxchen, the objectification of characters in his second play Comteß Mizzi, and a combination thereof in his final play Die Ehe. In the second chapter I treat issues of artistic control. While his debut play contains multiple and unconventional loci of control, the focus of his second play lies on artistic restrictions and its consequences. In his final play Döblin addresses social forces which rule different classes. In the third chapter I connect the elements of objectification and uprising with matters of control by arguing that Döblin employs Marxist themes throughout his plays.

Kirsten Kearney Submitted for the award of Doctor of Philosophy School of Languages, Cultures and Religions • German University of Stirling January 2007 CH •X ANG DF E P w Click to buy NOW! w m o w c .d k. ocu•trac ii Abstract This thesis focuses on the importance of the ballad in constructing national identity in Germany during the 20th century from 1918•1978. It presents a comparative approach using Scotland as a comparator, based on three significant time periods throughout the century: the Weimar Republic, the Nazi era and the German folk revival. In each of these eras the issue of national awareness was most in evidence and national identity was being created or was a particular object of tension. The modern Scottish literary renaissance and the Scottish folk revival will be used for comparative purposes. The comparative approach will also aid a deeper understanding of the concept of national identity itself. The hypothesis is that the ballad has contributed to the development of national identity in specific and differing ways in the two countries. Selected artists; poets, singers and Liedermacher have been chosen as representatives for each particular stage. The ballad in the 20th century has previously received little critical attention, thus this period has been chosen as the time frame of the thesis in an attempt to redress this balance and create new knowledge.

  • Brownies and Bogles
    Brownies and Bogles By Louise Imogen Guiney BROWNIES AND BOGLES. CHAPTER I. WHAT FAIRIES WERE AND WHAT THEY DID. A FAIRY is a humorous person sadly out of fashion at present, who has had, nevertheless, in the actors' phrase, a long and prosperous run on this planet. When we speak of fairies nowadays, we think only of small sprites who live in a kingdom of their own, with manners, laws, and privileges very different from ours. But there was a time when "fairy" suggested also the knights and ladies of romance, about whom fine spirited tales were told when the world was younger. Spenser's Faery Queen, for instance, deals with dream-people, beautiful and brave, as do the old stories of Arthur and Roland; people who either never lived, or who, having lived, were glorified and magnified by tradition out of all kinship with common men. Our fairies are fairies in the modern sense. We will make it a rule, from the beginning, that they must be small, and we will put out any who are above the regulation height. Such as the charming famous Melusina, who wails upon her tower at the death of a Lusignan, we may as well skip; for she is a tall young lady, with a serpent's tail, to boot, and thus, alas! half-monster; for if we should accept any like her in our plan, there is no reason why we should not get confused among mermaids and dryads, and perhaps end by scoring down great Juno herself as a fairy! Many a dwarf and goblin, whom we shall meet anon, is as big as a child.
