Michael Kruger is a major figure in modern German poetry, one of its great editors and leading practitioners. In 1993 Carcanet published Diderot's Cat, Michael Kruger's original Selected Poems, which drew on thirteen collections. This new edition, in German and English, incorporates portions of that book with selections from five later books, translated by Karen Leeder and Richard Dove. Introducing Diderot's Cat, Dove declared, 'If the recent German Zeitgeist could speak, it might sound a good deal like Michael Kruger.' For his American editor and publisher the poet Stanley Moss he is 'a self-made oracle of various cultures. His poetry - teaches us how to walk in the night - '

The God Behind the Window (Hardcover): Michael Kruger The God Behind the Window (Hardcover)

Now in paperback, a comic and moving collection of stories of grumpy old men who start to find unexpected connections with the world. The thirteen stories of Michael Kruger's The God behind the Window capture the poignancy and cynicism of late life through tales of misanthropic old men full of the mixture of wisdom and melancholy that so often accompanies old age. In Kruger's stories, world-weary characters seek--and only temporarily find--solace in nature and culture, rendering their search for a better life simultaneously comedic and heart wrenching. From a solitary hiker in the Swiss Alps to the book's eponymous shut-in, these aging malcontents are continually surprised by the unexpected interventions of a world that has come to seem predictable. Kruger captures this stage in life masterfully, contrasting the deeply personal emotions of affection, melancholy, and longing with an indifferent world. The resulting stories are lyrical, philosophical, and tender despite their cynicism.

Seasonal Time Change (Hardcover): Michael Kruger Seasonal Time Change (Hardcover)

R509 Discovery Miles 5 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Our twice-yearly daylight savings holiday, in which we faithfully, collectively adjust our clocks, is purely human tampering with the calendar. Yet it is a practice that is embedded in nature's principles, even as we exact more sun-light for ourselves in an over-organized, technological world. Mirroring this dichotomy, Michael Kruger brings us Seasonal Time Change, a collection of poems where an exacting eye is cast on nature. The poet's perspective is observant, stringent, and very human, bringing both intellect and emotion to the page. Translated by Joseph Given, the verses are in turn scrutinizing, wistful about the brutality of nature, and rejoicing in the simple wonder of life. Bearing witness to Kruger's interactions with renowned poets and artists through his time as director of Hanser Publishing, proximity and relationships are ongoing themes in this volume. Together, the poems remind us of our own mortality and of the finiteness of nature, but also our need for celebration even-perhaps especially - in times of darkness.

In der Bundesrepublik ist in den 90er Jahren das groesste Mediensystem Europas entstanden. Die Professionalisierung des Medienjournalismus hat mit dieser Entwicklung jedoch nicht Schritt gehalten. Ein eigenstandiges Fachressort fur Medienthemen leisten sich bisher nur wenige tagesaktuelle Medien. Die Studie liefert eine Bestandsaufnahme des Publikationsspektrums, des Umfangs und der Infrastrukturen des Medienjournalismus. Sie untersucht inhaltsanalytisch die Medienberichterstattung der Presse und analysiert an Fallbeispielen den publizistischen Umgang mit medienpolitischen Kontroversen. In Interviews und Gesprachen vermitteln Experten ihre Sicht auf die Problemfelder und Entwicklungsperspektiven des Medienjournalismus. Ein Fazit: Die Chancen kritischer Auseinandersetzung schwinden zunehmend unter dem Druck medienoekonomischer Marktstrategien.

In the Cold War era, sport was not just a symbol of the power and strength of a nation-state, but of certain ideological systems of politics. With the pressure for athletes to succeed at its zenith, many East German athletes were given anabolic steroids by their country's own sport federation. While doping in East Germany has been intensely researched in the past decades, the state of West German athletics during this time has remained largely a mystery. In fact, doping was a common practice on both sides of the Iron Curtain. But how many athletes were involved? And who knew about these practices? In order to answer these questions, the Federal Institute for Sport Science in Germany supported a research project to shed light on the other, West German side of doping history. Based on analyses of authentic documents and archives, German Sports, Doping and Politics: A History of Performance Enhancement is a unique study spanning from 1950-2007. Translated from its original German, and supplemented with new material written especially for an international audience, this innovative book addresses many important questions about a topic with worldwide implications. Part I deals with the history of doping in the post-war period of the 1950s and '60s; Part II focuses on the apex of doping, as well as the beginnings of the anti-doping movement; and Part III considers the development of doping since the Reunification and the foundation of the World Anti-Doping Agency and the National Anti-Doping Agency in Germany. Written for a global audience, German Sports, Doping, and Politics explains and reveals the truly remarkable processes of doping and anti-doping that have evolved since the Cold War. While sports historians will find this book of great interest, it is also a significant study for anyone who wants to look beyond the surface of sports and doping as reported by the media.
