In unserer Lebenswelt verschwinden mehr Dinge - und das mit ihnen verbundene
St&uuml;ck Leben - als neu hinzukommen, und wir vergessen &uuml;berdies, was uns
entschwindet. Das k&ouml;nnen ganz unspektakul&auml;re Dinge sein, eine bestimmte
Bewegung, eine Geste der H&ouml;flichkeit, eine von der Not erfundene Speise,
Markenartikel und unterschiedliche Dienstleistungen und nat&uuml;rlich all die
technischen Gegenst&auml;nde, die inzwischen jede Biographie nach ihren jeweils
neuesten Ger&auml;tschaften lesbar machen. Da&szlig; die Welt enger wird mit jedem
Tag und alles sich anscheinend immer &auml;hnlicher, ist die Erfahrung, die
hinter dem "Kleinen Glossar des Verschwindens" steht. In den Beitr&auml;gen
von Peter Nadas, Adolf Muschg, Brigitte Kronauer, Judith Kuckart, Peter
Esterhazy, Ulrike Draesner, Moritz Rinke u.v.a. wird das Verschwundene
noch einmal beschworen, Z&auml;une, Hakenleisten, Radio Berom&uuml;nster, die Stenorette
oder das Taschentuch.

Kleines Glossar des Verschwindens

"The Parade is a heartbreaker and a mindbender.&#160; It is a novel of ideas that packs an emotional punch that left me reeling. With clear, unadorned prose, Eggers lays bare the costs of war, and of peace."&#160;&ndash;Tayari Jones, author of An American Marriage "This is a tale for our time, an allegory about intervening in foreign lands without knowledge, and so a nightmare vision of our endless wars."&#160;&mdash;Thomas E. Ricks, author of Fiasco and Churchill and Orwell &#160; "A parable of progress, as told by J.M. Coetzee to Philip K. Dick." &mdash;Richard Flanagan, author of&#160;Gould&rsquo;s Book of Fish&#160;and&#160;The Narrow Road to the Deep North &#160;"In The Parade, the anxiety&#160;grows with every page and every mile to reach an ending that turns everything upside down and sends us into the heart of darkness. A minimalistic, merciless novel. A powerful allegory and a painfully concrete contemporary story&mdash;Eggers is a true virtuoso of that synthesis." &mdash;Georgi Gospodinov, author of The Physics of Sorrow"In an unnamed country, two unnamed employees of a foreign road-building corporation arrive for a 12-day assignment&hellip; Readers, too, are shut out of any background information on either man, an authorial choice that generates a subtle tension throughout the novel&hellip; Eggers differentiates between Four and Nine solely through their reactions to the post-civil-war devastation around them. How this setup reduces the two men to their willingness&mdash;or refusal&mdash;to see others is striking&hellip; Parable-like&hellip; The final scene of the novel contains such ferocity."&#160;&mdash;Idra Novey, The New York Times Book Review "In Dave Eggers&rsquo;s new novel, The Parade, two men go on a journey: flat, direct and more dangerous than either will admit&hellip; The narrative is deliberately unbranded, unspecific. The enthusiastic, inexperienced partner goes by Nine. This pushes the narrative into an allegorical space, even as we are up close and personal with the two on their trip from south to north&hellip; Eggers has been writing fiction that tells a story of America in our present moment, and often that moment is characterized by decline&hellip; To environmental devastation, violence, the power of social media, the loss of the middle class, we can now add American abroad, over their heads&hellip; Darkly funny." &mdash;Carolyn Kellogg, The Los Angeles Times "The ever-incisive, worldly-wise, compassionate, and imaginative Eggers maintains the tension of a cocked crossbow in this magnetizing, stealthily wry, and increasingly chilling tale."&#160;&ndash;Booklist&#160;"Eggers&hellip; may be the only living American writer for whom the term &lsquo;Hemingway-esque&rsquo; meaningfully applies&hellip;. Eggers ably weaves in a host of ethical questions over one man's responsibility to the other, what makes help transactional versus simply kind&hellip;. An unassuming but deceptively complex morality play, as Eggers distills his ongoing concerns into ever tighter prose."&#160;&mdash;Kirkus "A testament to Eggers&rsquo; expert skill at point of view... The Parade is a deeply felt book that defies easy labels. This is a book you can finish in a single sitting. And you will."&#160;&mdash;Tony Romano, The New York Journal of Books&#160;"An eye-opening political fiction&hellip; Eggers&rsquo; tense and intricate storytelling reveals complex moral and ethical issues." &ndash;The Christian Science Monitor&#160;&#160;"Dave Eggers is able to see the world as it is, while also holding on to his vision of how the world should be." &mdash;Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

"Hendrik Willem van Loon, the Dutch-American writer and illustrator, was an extraordinary character. Larger-than-life, he overflowed with exuberance and gusto, and he devoted his talent to writing popular history in a delightful way. Cornelis van Minnen has written an arresting biography of van Loon and is to be congratulated in restoring the memory of this fascinating Dutch-American personality with his vast appetite for freedom, courage, friendship, and debate." - Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., writer and historian, and author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Age of Jackson and A Thousand Days: John F. Kennedy in the White House. "Cornelis van Minnen succeeds brilliantly in recreating the endlessly fascinating universe of Hendrik Willem van Loon. Readers will not want to put down his swiftly paced account of the literary and erotic adventures of this exuberant, larger-than-life man who was one of the most famous writers of the era between the two world wars." - William E. Leuchtenburg, William Rand Kennan Jr. Professor Emeritus of History at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, author of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal, 1932-1940, winner of the Bancroft and the Francis Parkman Prizes

"This is a first-class telling and the exceptional story of Hendrik Willem van Loon: a noteworthy and memorable figure in American culture, yet hardly recalled today. In his meticulously researched and well-written biography, Cornelis van Minnen accurately captures the fascinating life and works of this influential historian, journalist and Roosevelt confidant that was a household name for the first part of the twentieth century. This is van Loon's definitive biography." - Douglas Brinkley, Distinguished Professor of American History, Tulane University, New Orleans and author of FDR and the Creation of the U.N. and The Unfinished Presidency: Jimmy Carter s Journey Beyond the White House.

"In his compelling biography of the larger-than-life Hendrik Willem van Loon, Cornelis van Minnen has provided a fascinating, meticulously researched account of the public life and chaotic private life of the too-easily forgotten 'prince of popularizers' who explained the Dutch to the Americans and America to the Dutch. Best-selling author and friend of FDR, van Loon deserves the attention that this wonderful biography pays him." - Tony Badger, Paul Mellon Professor of American History and Master of Clare CoIlege, Cambridge University, author of The New Deal: The Depression Years, 1933-1940 "In this gripping biography, Cornelis van Minnen rescues Hendrik Willem van Loon from archival obscurity and brings alive a fascinating, eccentric man of many talents. Van Minnen has combined factual observation with wit and humor and painted an engaging portrait of van Loon who was once a respected voice in the worlds of history and art and one of the era's more colorful observers and pundits." - David B. Roosevelt, author of Grandmère, A Personal History of Eleanor Roosevelt

"Wideband Amplifiers by Peter Staric and Eric Margan is to my knowledge by far the best modern book about this topic and can be highly recommended to anyone who is engaged in the design of such amplifiers. It can be truly called a Standard Book, well worth to be included in the Springer catalogue. A substantial portion of the book contains knowledge only available within the very few companies which play a leading role in this field.One strength of this book is its comprehensiveness: it is not necessary to refer to other books in order to derive benefits from it, the mathematics required to understand the main part are meticulously explained in its first chapters. The second part of the book deals with the standard peaking circuits and then introduces the socalled „T-Coil" which is essentially a complex transformer. The knowledge about these circuits is inversely proportional to their importance." (Dr.-Ing. Artur Seibt - Wien, Austria)

Argues convincingly that Israelites and Judahites venerated a small pantheon of gods, whose functions and attributes Yahweh appropriates. This book should prove useful especially to students and scholars looking for a relatively brief yet persuasively argued study of the development of Yahwistic monotheism.

Monotheism and Yahweh's Appropriation of Baal

Tieken-Boon van Ostade has presented a book which is remarkable in many ways ... Apart from enriching the study of grammaticography with this methodological innovation, the author also makes a significant, well-founded contribution to debate about prescriptivism.
