This richly illustrated book examines the complex history of the exhibition space. For the Haus der Kunst in Munich, the question of how to deal with its own past arose directly after the end of the Second World War, when the building once again served as an exhibition space . This richly illustrated volume spans the key historical dates during which a social and political development took place, at whose beginning stood the ideology of the National Socialists and whose end marked the start of Germany's transformation into a democratic state. In this time period, it was not only the orientation of the Haus der Kunst's content that changed; as a result of the cultural-historical upheavals of this time, the basis for the building's development as an international exhibition venue was also laid. Today the Haus der Kunst plays a formative role in the discussion of relevant positions in contemporary art. It documents the historical developments within the context of political and cultural transformations, as well as their international parallels and references. Large exhibitions that were influential for the topography of the art of the twentieth century such as the World Exposition in Paris in 1937, the biennials in Venice, and the first documenta in 1955 provide the coordinates for the international dimension of the Haus der Kunst's story.\"--Publisher's website",2017,0,305,347,"pending",true,false,[17,22,26],{"id":18,"slug":19,"name":20,"role":21,"bio":7},"01kv5fj9pjtf9jpdp4rkjzhda9","sabine-brantl-uv9s","Sabine Brantl","author",{"id":23,"slug":24,"name":25,"role":21,"bio":7},"01kv5fj9pvejawqfgtzgn9yksg","ulrich-wilmes-taic","Ulrich Wilmes",{"id":27,"slug":28,"name":29,"role":21,"bio":30},"01kqj6qnny9e9g52z9e4cjd7b3","okwui-enwezor-zwpd","Okwui Enwezor","Okwui Enwezor was an influential curator and art critic.

A single fatal brawl sends events spiraling beyond anyone's control, and a desperate plan to keep them together sets in motion one of literature's most famous tragedies.\n\nWilliam Shakespeare's tragedy of \"star-crossed lovers\" remains the definitive story of young love thwarted by hatred, chance, and haste — a play whose language, characters, and heartbreak have shaped how the Western world imagines romance for more than four centuries.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjz6s5j7x45h1rw02tte2mvz.jpg","LdJHgSf6xtoe~VWCV@ay?aayRjfj",1949,"4.00",107,[77],{"id":78,"slug":79,"name":80},"01kjq7eyjb5ehy0zsfypwhbrqj","william-shakespeare-ys9o","William Shakespeare",[82,86,87,91,95,99,103,107],{"id":83,"name":84,"slug":85,"is_fiction":14},14,"Plays","plays",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":15},{"id":88,"name":89,"slug":90,"is_fiction":15},92,"Science","science",{"id":92,"name":93,"slug":94,"is_fiction":14},15,"Drama","drama",{"id":96,"name":97,"slug":98,"is_fiction":14},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":100,"name":101,"slug":102,"is_fiction":14},9,"Literary Fiction","literary-fiction",{"id":104,"name":105,"slug":106,"is_fiction":14},4,"Romance","romance",{"id":108,"name":109,"slug":110,"is_fiction":14},8,"Historical Fiction","historical-fiction",[],{"pace":113,"complexity":7,"audience":114,"mood":115,"themes":118,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},"fast","young_adult",[116,117],"romantic","melancholic",[119,120],"forbidden-love","betrayal",{"id":122,"slug":123,"title":124,"description":125,"primary_cover_url":126,"cover_blurhash":127,"first_publish_year":128,"community_rating_avg":129,"community_rating_count":130,"page_count":131,"authors":132,"genres":137,"series":153,"enrichment":154},"01kjq7sa2nzt8x6wgmy2asmet0","crime-and-punishment-km6m","Crime and Punishment","Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment (1866) is one of the towering achievements of Russian literature — a claustrophobic psychological drama set in the sweltering slums of St. Petersburg.\n\nRodion Raskolnikov, a destitute former student, has convinced himself that certain extraordinary men stand above conventional morality and are permitted to commit crimes in service of a greater good. To test the theory, he murders a rapacious old pawnbroker. But the deed does not liberate him; instead it plunges him into a fever of guilt, paranoia, and self-loathing, hunted less by the police than by his own conscience.\n\nAs the shrewd investigator Porfiry Petrovich circles ever closer and the devout, long-suffering Sonya offers a path toward confession and redemption, Dostoevsky builds an unbearably intimate portrait of a mind at war with itself. A foundational work of psychological fiction, it remains a searching meditation on guilt, free will, suffering, and the possibility of moral rebirth.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq7sa63n7s9pw8c7r57xavv.jpg","LIM~Lmr@^PkWysS15kr=00wJq]s9",1866,"4.50",7,442,[133],{"id":134,"slug":135,"name":136},"01kjq7sa2qtzn21cnchnhn8yxm","fedor-mixailovic-dostoevskii-xtfh","Fyodor Dostoyevsky",[138,142,143,144,148,149],{"id":139,"name":140,"slug":141,"is_fiction":14},6,"Mystery","mystery",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":15},{"id":100,"name":101,"slug":102,"is_fiction":14},{"id":145,"name":146,"slug":147,"is_fiction":14},44,"Crime","crime",{"id":96,"name":97,"slug":98,"is_fiction":14},{"id":150,"name":151,"slug":152,"is_fiction":14},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",[],{"pace":155,"complexity":7,"audience":156,"mood":157,"themes":161,"setting_period":7,"summary":164,"content_warnings":7},"slow","adult",[158,159,160],"dark","tense","thought-provoking",[162,163],"morally-grey","unreliable-narrator","A destitute, brilliant former law student in St. Petersburg murders a pawnbroker to test his theory that extraordinary men are above the moral laws governing ordinary people — and is then consumed by paranoia as he tries to outmaneuver both the police and his own conscience.",{"id":166,"slug":167,"title":168,"description":169,"primary_cover_url":170,"cover_blurhash":171,"first_publish_year":172,"community_rating_avg":173,"community_rating_count":174,"page_count":175,"authors":176,"genres":185,"series":196,"enrichment":197},"01kjq87dgp1rrmfjh8jd74anv3","anna-karenina-rban","Anna Karenina","This classic novel explores the tragic consequences of a passionate affair between Anna, a married socialite, and the dashing Count Vronsky.

World War II continues, and Ada and her brother, Jamie, are living with their loving legal guardian, Susan, in a borrowed cottage on the estate of the formidable Lady Thorton--along with Lady Thorton herself and her daughter, Maggie. Life in the crowded cottage is tense enough, and then, quite suddenly, Ruth, a Jewish girl from Germany, moves in. A German? The occupants of the house are horrified. But other impacts of the war become far more frightening. As death creeps closer to their door, life and morality during wartime grow more complex. Who is Ada now? How can she keep fighting?

As she gets to know people who strongly oppose many of the ideas she famously champions, Hochschild nevertheless finds common ground and quickly warms to the people she meets--among them a Tea Party activist whose town has been swallowed by a sinkhole caused by a drilling accident--people whose concerns are actually ones that all Americans share: the desire for community, the embrace of family, and hopes for their children. Strangers in Their Own Land goes beyond the commonplace liberal idea that these are people who have been duped into voting against their own interests. Instead, Hochschild finds lives ripped apart by stagnant wages, a loss of home, an elusive American dream--and political choices and views that make sense in the context of their lives. Hochschild draws on her expert knowledge of the sociology of emotion to help us understand what it feels like to live in \"red\" America. Along the way she finds answers to one of the crucial questions of contemporary American politics: why do the people who would seem to benefit most from \"liberal\" government intervention abhor the very idea?\"--","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01knpxdkj61pjf2d20q5t5wtrj.jpg","LYQJWMxuxut7_NWBt7j[o#WBWBfR",2016,368,[459],{"id":460,"slug":461,"name":462},"01knpxdkhwpsmsprmh278vm6q3","arlie-russell-hochschild-4dxr","Arlie Russell Hochschild",[464,465,469,473],{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":15},{"id":466,"name":467,"slug":468,"is_fiction":15},86,"Essays","essays",{"id":470,"name":471,"slug":472,"is_fiction":15},102,"Politics","politics",{"id":254,"name":255,"slug":256,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":268,"complexity":7,"audience":156,"mood":476,"themes":478,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[160,477],"reflective",[],{"id":480,"slug":481,"title":482,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":483,"cover_blurhash":484,"first_publish_year":456,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":10,"page_count":485,"authors":486,"genres":491,"series":497,"enrichment":498},"01kx6p7b45yn9xda66r5t2tpyk","chernobyl-012340-fdhe","Chernobyl 01:23:40","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p7b4qrt1yfps89kw44nf8.jpg?v=b898fd01ba","L2Pt0]tR-;_4?bRj%NRj00Rj-;fR",247,[487],{"id":488,"slug":489,"name":490},"01kx6p7b4jntpswewyj44k1fj6","andrew-leatherbarrow-qggi","Andrew Leatherbarrow",[492,496],{"id":493,"name":494,"slug":495,"is_fiction":15},104,"True Crime","true-crime",{"id":33,"name":34,"slug":35,"is_fiction":15},[],{"pace":268,"complexity":7,"audience":156,"mood":499,"themes":500,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[159,158,477],[],{"id":502,"slug":503,"title":504,"description":505,"primary_cover_url":506,"cover_blurhash":507,"first_publish_year":508,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":10,"page_count":509,"authors":510,"genres":515,"series":520,"enrichment":521},"01kpqwr2t0avmhcatvn51ag001","the-quartet-ul1l","The Quartet","Joseph J.

As the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those war criminals were Josef Mengele, the \"Angel of Death\" who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler's brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel \"Butcher of Lyon\"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all: Adolf Eichmann. Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring waged by self-styled \"Nazi hunters.\" This determined and disparate group included a French husband and wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death. Written in the fast-paced style of the Killing series, Killing the SS will educate and stun the reader.

Operating in Chicago's notorious Levee district at the dawn of the last century, the Club's proprietors, two aristocratic sisters named Minna and Ada Everleigh, welcomed moguls and actors, senators and athletes, foreign dignitaries and literary icons, into their stately double mansion, where thirty stunning Everleigh \"butterflies\" awaited their arrival. Courtesans named Doll, Suzy Poon Tang, and Brick Top devoured raw meat to the delight of Prince Henry of Prussia and recited poetry for Theodore Dreiser. Whereas lesser madams pocketed most of a harlot's earnings and kept a \"whipper\" on staff to mete out discipline, the Everleighs made sure their girls dined on gourmet food, were examined by an honest physician, and even tutored in the literature of Balzac.Not everyone appreciated the sisters' attempts to elevate the industry. Rival Levee madams hatched numerous schemes to ruin the Everleighs, including an attempt to frame them for the death of department store heir Marshall Field, Jr. But the sisters' most daunting foes were the Progressive Era reformers, who sent the entire country into a frenzy with lurid tales of \"white slavery\"--the allegedly rampant practice of kidnapping young girls and forcing them into brothels. This furor shaped America's sexual culture and had repercussions all the way to the White House, including the formation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.With a cast of characters that includes Jack Johnson, John Barrymore, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., William Howard Taft, \"Hinky Dink\" Kenna, and Al Capone, Sin in the Second City is Karen Abbott's colorful, nuanced portrait of the iconic Everleigh sisters, their world-famous Club, and the perennial clash between our nation's hedonistic impulses and Puritanical roots. Culminating in a dramatic last stand between brothel keepers and crusading reformers, Sin in the Second City offers a vivid snapshot of America's journey from Victorian-era propriety to twentieth-century modernity.Visit www.sininthesecondcity.com to learn more!Praise for Sin in the Second City:\"Assiduously researched...

In The Modernity of Witchcraft, Peter Geschieres uses his own experiences among the Maka and in other parts of eastern and southern Cameroon, as well as other anthropological research, to argue that contemporary ideas and practices of witchcraft are more a response to modern exigencies than a lingering cultural custom. The prevalence of witchcraft, especially in African politics and entrepreneurship, demonstrates the unlikely balance it has achieved with the forces of modernity.
