by Ma Yan Pierre Haski

Wednesday, November 7. My father gave me and my brother a little money. My stomach is all twisted up with hunger, but I don't want to spend the money on anything as frivolous as food. Because it's money my parents earn with their sweat and blood. I have to study well so that I won't ever again be tortured by hunger. . . . In a drought-stricken corner of rural China, an education can be the difference between a life of crushing poverty and the chance for a better future.

First published in France in 2002, the Diary of Ma Yan created an outpouring of support for this courageous teenager and others like her -- support that led to the creation of an international organization dedicated to helping these children . . . all because of one ordinary girl's extraordinary diary.

Días de navidad: Cuentos y recetas

by Jeanette Winterson

Libro del año según The Sunday Telegraph y uno de los mejores libros del año según The New York Times. «Un festín de historias. Winterson nos ha traído un regalo de Navidad en forma de libro.»NPR Durante años Jeanette Winterson ha escrito un relato cada Navidad: cuentos llenos de fantasmas y de carámbanos, de trineos y de muérdago, pero con esa dosis de ironía y reflexión que solo ella es capaz de transmitir. En Días de Navidad se reúnen doce de ellos: historias para leerse en voz alta, en familia, frente al fuego de la chimenea, y que acompañan hermosas ilustraciones y festivas recetas muy personales. La crítica ha dicho...«En ninguno de sus libros encontraremos la fe de Winterson en el poder de la narración con tanta intensidad como en su nuevo libro, Días de Navidad. Oscuro, lleno de imaginación y (marca Winterson) perversamente divertido. Un regalo navideño para ser leído en voz alta junto a la chimenea en una noche de diciembre.»New York Times Book Review «Winterson nos ha dado una inesperada alegría navideña. Unos cuentos mágicos y exuberantes.»Washington Post «Si anhelas el misterio, los rituales familiares y los manjares de Navidad, disfrutarás con Días de Navidad de la audaz y reveladora escritora feminista Jeanette Winterson.»Elle «Los cuentos de invierno de Winterson logran indefectiblemente deslumbrarnos.»Alfred Hickling, The Guardian «La mezcla de golosinas narrativas de Winterson tiene el encanto del siglo XIX tan necesario en el sombrío siglo XXI.»Kirkus «Lleno de encanto y con hermosas ilustraciones. Es un libro para escapar de los aspectos menos sanos de la Navidad al país de las maravillas literarias.»Stylist «Una guirnalda navideña maravillosa y sorprendente, ingeniosa y entretenida.»Kate Saunders, Saga Magazine «Una mezcla poco convencional de cuentos, recetas, memorias, historia y filosofía personal. Una mezcla que funciona brillantementeThe Sunday Times' Culture «Los cuentos sobrenaturales, espeluznantes, inteligentes, divertidos y conmovedores de Winterson refrescan nuestra apreciación de lo que realmente significa dar, amar y compartir alegría.»Booklist «Sorprendente y entretenido. Una lectura deliciosa para largas noches de invierno.»BBC «Días de Navidad modela esta abundancia de esperanza en todo. Incluso aquellos que disfrutan de la temporada con ambivalencia encontrarán algunas golosinas para saborear en sus páginas.»Lambda Literary Review Sobre la autora«Winterson [...] a través de la heterodoxia de sus textos, dinamita categorías, vocabularios y convenciones tristes. Una escritora maravillosa.»Marta Sanz, Babelia «Jeanette Winterson es una fuerza desatada de la naturaleza. Ella sola es el cambio climático entero.»Carmen Morán Breña, El País «Mientras la mayoría de autores y autoras se limitan a regurgitar la imaginación de sus antecesores, [...] esta inglesa rebelde se pone la literatura por montera y la reinventa.»María Ángeles Cabré, Babelia

Diaspora-Biografien in der Migrationsgesellschaft: Eine sozialwissenschaftliche Fallstudie über erzählte Biografien von Angehörigen der jesidischen Minderheit und deren Lebenswelt(en) in Deutschland

by Süleyman Kanat

Die Minderheit der Jesiden, deren Angehörige mittlerweile zum Teil in der dritten Generation in der deutschen Migrationsgesellschaft leben, ist vor allem durch den an ihnen im Nordirak verübten Genozid im Jahr 2014 vorübergehend in das öffentliche Interesse gerückt. Zwar gibt es Forschungsarbeiten über die Lage dieser Minderheit im deutschsprachigen Raum, doch fehlen vor allem für die Soziale Arbeit notwendige biografieorientierte Fallstudien, die die Perspektive der Betroffenen tiefergehend qualitativ analysieren. Dieses Buch beschäftigt sich daher mit dem Fragenkomplex, welchen möglichen biografischen Herausforderungen Angehörige der jesidischen Minderheit unter den Bedingungen eines Lebens in der Diaspora einer Migrationsgesellschaft ausgesetzt seien können und wie diese von ihnen in ihren individuellen Lebenslagen und Lebenswelten artikuliert, eingeordnet und bewältigt werden. Neben der Sensibilisierung für die Lebenslagen der jesidischen Minderheit in der Diaspora ist es auch ein Forschungsbeitrag, die Komplexität migrationsgesellschaftlicher Verhältnisse aus der subjektiven Perspektive von Minderheitsangehörigen besser zu verstehen. Damit wird es auch möglich, die lebensweltlichen Voraussetzungen, unter denen die Betroffenen an institutionellen Bildungssettings teilhaben, zu berücksichtigen.

The Diatessaron of Tatian the Assyrian

by Tatian

This edition of the Diatessaron of Tatian presents a reader-friendly version of the most popular unified account of Jesus’s life and teachings, as written in the gospels, for over three centuries, and a crucial link to the early history of the church and Christian doctrine. The Diatessaron takes center stage in Ian Caldwell’s new breakout novel The Fifth Gospel.Composed in the 2nd century CE, the Diatessaron is Tatian’s combination of the texts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John into one comprehensive timeline of Jesus’s life. Tatian the Assyrian, an obscure but highly controversial theologian who was expelled from the early Church, tried to fill in the gaps left by the traditional four gospels and resolve their contradictions.The Diatessaron was a major source for the story of the life of Christ until the 6th Century CE when it fell into obscurity and the four gospels took its place in the order of the New Testament.This original translation by Reverend Hope W. Hogg, B.D. preserves Tatian’s chronology and allows readers access to this little-known ancient text and a crucial link to the early Church and the life and death of Jesus.
