        Un ours dans mon lit et un chacal dans mon four De drôles d’aventures d’un zoologue de la vie sauvage israélien par Avinoam Lourie et Cissy Shapiro   Combien de personnes peuvent se vanter d’avoir eu un ours syrien dans leur lit ? Ou d’avoir réchauffé un chacal dans leur four ? D’avoir été chargé par les cornes d’un chevreuil jaloux ? D’avoir été attaqué par un tigre ? Ou encore de voir des singes se balancer du lustre de leur salon ? Et d’avoir égaré un serpent dans un avion ? Ce sont quelques unes des expériences passionnées, amusantes et éducatives qu’a vécues, avec une variété d’animaux sauvages exotiques, le zoologue israélien Avinoam Lourie, ainsi que les membres de sa famille. Il les raconte avec enthousiasme et humour, de sa manière spirituelle et la sagesse bien connues qui captivent ses lecteurs.

        The Himalayan Soap Pod Tree (Gymnocladus assamicus)

        The Himalayan Soap Pod Tree (Gymnocladus assamicus)

        An Ecologically and Economically Important Tree on the Brink of Extinction

        by Baharul I Choudhury, Mohammed Latif Khan

        Extinction of species has alarmingly increased in recent decades due to anthropogenic activities, natural calamities and climate change. The life history, ecology and evolution of such species have often not been well studied. Gymnocladus assamicus is an archaic tree endemic to the Eastern Himalayan region of Northeast India. Locally known as 'Menangmanba-shi' by the Monpa tribe of Arunachal Pradesh (India), mature G. assamicus pods contain high saponin and are used traditionally for cleansing purposes and rituals. We rediscovered the species after more than 70 years from high altitude areas in the Himalayas through extensive field explorations and employing an ecological niche modeling approach. Our study revealed a very few actively reproducing mature G. assamicus trees surviving in unique microclimatic conditions. The species is classified as 'critically endangered' (IUCN red list). The book contains detailed information about G. assamicus and discusses its current distribution, population status, ethnobotanical uses and other ecological parameters. Major intrinsic and extrinsic factors that might be responsible for population decline are described. More importantly, we reported a very rare mating system known as 'androdioecy' in which male and hermaphrodite individuals co-exist in the natural population. Overall, the book highlights the story of a critically endangered tree species with a unique biological and socio-cultural importance and will serve as a case study and referencefor other similar species both locally and globally.

        Queer Objects

        by Chris Brickell, Judith Collard

        Queer lives give rise to a vast array of objects: the things we fill our houses with, the gifts we share with our friends, the commodities we consume at work and at play, the clothes and accessories we wear, and the analogue and digital technologies we use to communicate with one another. But what makes an object queer? The sixty-three chapters in Queer Objects consider this question in relation to lesbian, gay and transgender communities across time, cultures and space. In this unique international collaboration, well-known and newer writers traverse world history to write about items ranging from ancient Egyptian tomb paintings and Roman artefacts to political placards, snapshots, sex toys and the smartphone. Fabulous, captivating, transgressive.

        Rilkes Sternenfrauen
        September 2023

        Rilkes Sternenfrauen

        by Ursula Voß

        Rainer Maria Rilke war äußerlich kein schöner Mann, doch suchten Frauen unterschiedlichen Standes, Alters und Lebensstils immer wieder seine Nähe. Faszinierend wirkten nicht nur sein seelenvoller Blick und seine androgyne Zartheit, sondern vor allem seine Fähigkeit, die Wirklichkeit auf eine unbekannte Art aufzunehmen und dem nicht allein in seiner Dichtung, sondern auch im persönlichen Umgang Ausdruck zu geben. Ursula Voß erkennt im Spiegel des weiblichen Blicks auf Rilke viele neue Facetten des Dichters und setzt zugleich den Frauen, die ihn inspiriert und gefördert haben und sich von ihm inspirieren ließen – seien es Freundinnen, Gefährtinnen, Geliebte und Gönnerinnen –, mit diesem Buch ein eindrucksvolles Denkmal.

        by Thomas Blubacher

        Die erste Biographie der Ruth Landshoff-Yorck Sie spielte Krocket mit Thomas Mann, wurde von Oskar Kokoschka porträtiert, verhalf Marlene Dietrich zu ihrer Rolle im Blauen Engel, verkehrte mit Andy Warhol, Patricia Highsmith und Salvador Dalí … Ruth Landshoff-Yorck war Glitzergirl und androgyne Stil-Ikone, vor allem aber eine vielseitige Literatin, die die Presse der Weimarer Republik mit flotten Feuilletons versorgte und mehrere Romane publizierte. Ihre Kurzgeschichten und Gedichte wurden weltweit veröffentlicht. Das Leben der Ruth Landshoff schlägt eine Brücke von der Bohème der Weimarer Republik zur amerikanischen New Bohemia der 60er Jahre, vom expressionistischen Stummfilm zur Entstehung des experimentellen Off-Off-Broadways und nicht zuletzt von der schwulen Subkultur der „goldenen“ Zwanziger zur alternativen Szene New Yorks. In jahrelanger Arbeit hat Thomas Blubacher unbekannte Dokumente aufgespürt und Zeitzeugen befragt. Erstmals liegt nun eine Biographie der verkannten Avantgarde-Literatin und engagierten Antifaschistin vor, deren viele Leben in Berlin, Paris und Venedig, London und New York die Zeitläufte eines halben Jahrhunderts spiegeln.

As a result, the She people were in shortage of food. Lan Tianfeng led people to the land owner's house to steal food. After being found out, Lan Tianfeng stepped forward to protect others and was imprisoned on March 3rd. There was no food in the prison for him. Later, some She people used black rice leaves to cook rice. The jailers did not dare to eat the black rice and passed the rice to Tianfeng. Over time, Lan Tianfeng slowly recovered. Three years later, again on March 3rd, Lan Tianfeng was rescued. In order for future generations to commemorate the feat of Lan Tianfeng and remember how hard to have rice, the Black Rice Festival is celebrated every year.
