Michela ha 16 anni ed è una studentessa diligente. Ma un giorno è tentata dall'idea di copiare il compito di italiano, ingannando i genitori e l'insegnante che tanto la stimano. È sabato sera e Riccardo ha appena preso la patente. Gli amici lo invitano a bere: ma lui è consapevole dei rischi che corre mettendosi alla guida dopo aver bevuto. Cosa fare? Sono due esempi di scelte che quotidianamente gli adolescenti affrontano, alle prese tra bisogni e desideri personali da un lato, e principi e norme dall'altro.

Ein Thüringischer Dorfpastor heiratet eine Kammerzofe. Mit Gott Armor in einer wichtigen Nebenrolle. Ein Bestseller seinerzeit, in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt. Wie bei den großen Epen Homers wird es in Gesängen vorgebracht und immer wieder die Muse angerufen. Hier freilich die "komische" Muse.

In these pastiches of the sacred writings, written when he was 19 and 20, August Derleth has recreated the London of Sherlock Holmes.

And what intriguing titles there arc to these 12 pastiches, chosen from among a greater number!

Something was coming. Arlo felt certain about that. For Arlo Finch and the Rangers of Pine Mountain Company, summer camp is more than canoeing and hiking. It's also a chance to search for ancient forest spirits and discover mysterious messages encoded in tree bark. But when Arlo and his best friends Indra and Wu stumble upon clues about the long-lost Yellow Patrol, Arlo uncovers a stunning history that leads right back to his very own family.

In a culture where female empowerment is used to sell everything from sex toys to soap, most sex education continues to bypass pleasure. The results are stark - we’ve grown accustomed to slut- and prude-shaming and allowed others to dictate how a “good girl” is meant to feel, act, and look. In Girl Boner: The Good Girl’s Guide to Sexual Empowerment, August McLaughlin offers an unfiltered blend of personal narrative and practical tips on relationships, solo play, journaling, gender issues, and more.

Irgendwas stimmt nicht in Pine Mountain. Das merkt Arlo Finch sofort, als er mit seiner Familie in das abgeschiedene Bergdorf zieht. Was hat es mit den merkwürdigen Tieren auf sich, die ihm immer wieder am Waldrand auflauern, und was mit dem Mädchen, das niemand außer ihm sieht? Zum Glück findet Arlo in Indra, Henry Wu und den ortsansässigen Rangern schnell Freunde, die sich bestens auskennen mit den Geheimnissen der Langen Wälder, mit Schutzzaubern und den Gefahren der Wildnis. Doch auch sie hätten nie geahnt, in welch unglaubliches Abenteuer sie geraten, als sie die Wälder gemeinsam mit Arlo betreten.

Comment peut-on savoir si les fantômes existent sans avoir mis un pied dans la tombe... Mais dans le fond, existent-ils vraiment ? Peut-on communiquer avec eux ? La physique quantique peut-elle apporter de la lumière là où la physique théorique y jette ses ombres ? Comment ne pas tomber dans les idées reçues colportés par le cinéma ? À mes côtés, devenez un voyageur de l'étrange dans une épopée fantastique au cœur du royaume des ombres pour comprendre ce qu'il se cache derrière le terme "fantôme". Je ne suis ni un médium, ni un scientifique, ni un illuminé.

Sfrontati e fragili, ostili e desiderosi di affetto, gli adolescenti rappresentano una sfida per gli adulti, ma soprattutto per loro stessi, alle prese come sono con la difficile costruzione del proprio io e del proprio ruolo sociale. Anche se alcuni drammatici fatti di cronaca sembrano insondabili è compito degli adulti capire. Ogni generalizzazione produce soltanto pregiudizi e la "miscela" dell'adolescenza, per non diventare esplosiva, richiede adulti coerenti nell'esempio e nella guida, capaci di attenzione e di rispetto.

Anche le forme di governo hanno una loro storia, un albero genealogico attraverso cui riconoscere le diverse famiglie e la loro discendenza. Tutto cominciò in Inghilterra, dove tra '600 e '700 prese forma il sistema parlamentare, il modello di tutti i successivi modelli. Poi gli "inglesi" d'America, volendo imitare la loro madrepatria, finirono per inventare un modello alternativo, la forma di governo presidenziale. Molti anni dopo, in Francia, nel corso di una difficile transizione, si affermò un terzo modello, quello semipresidenziale.

Wer kennt sie nicht? Die Phantastereien des Baron Münchhausens sind weltbekannt. Er gehört zu den bekanntesten literarischen Figuren aller Zeiten, und geht zurück auf einen anonymen Text, der erstmals im Jahr 1781 in einem Sammelband erschienen ist. Es ist möglich, dass dieser Text vom echten Baron Münchhausen stammt. Gottfried August Bürger adaptierte fünf Jahre später den Stoff für das Buch, das die tolldreisten Phantasiegeschichten des Barons schildert und zu einem Bestseller wurde. Die Buchvorlage wurde von Heinz Schimmelpfennig (1919-2010) leicht gekürzt und eingelesen.

Gender inequality in the fields of education, law, employment and wages lead to incalculable social and political disparities. These disparities in turn give rise to endemic poverty and violence, to individual frustration, social instability, and cultural disaffection. When women are deprived of their rights, economies are eroded, democracies weakened, and the fabric of societies radically undermined. This pioneering book shows, once and for all, the direct correlation between the freedoms given to women and the prosperity enjoyed by all.

Wer reitet so spät durch Nacht und Wind? Fast jeder wird diese Zeile vervollständigen können. Aber erst wenn Gert Westphal solche "Theaterstücke im Kleinen" rezitiert, entfalten Balladen ihre ganze Schönheit und Sprachkunst. Der "König der Vorleser" nutzt sein ausdrucksstarkes Stimmrepertoire für die Meisterstücke der deutschen Lyrik und bringt neben beliebten Klassikern auch unbekanntere Schätze zum Klingen.

Lügen haben kurze Beine? Nicht im Falle des weltbekannten Freiherrn von Münchhausen. Dessen fantastische Erzählungen, niedergeschrieben und ergänzt von Gottfried August Bürger, erfreuen sich seit Jahrhunderten ungebrochener Beliebtheit. In seinen Memoiren bereist der einfallsreiche Lügenbaron die ganze Welt - und reitet hierbei auf einer Kanonenkugel, zieht sich samt Pferd am eigenen Schopf aus einem gefährlichen Sumpf und jagt einen achtbeinigen Hasen.

Med strålende humor og sikker sagkundskab fortæller August Strindberg om dagligdag og fester blandt den stockholmske skærgårds ejendommelige befolkning. Det er praktiske, handlekraftige mennesker der nærmest opfatter kærligheden som en slags naturkraft og religionen som et udtryk for sæd og skik uden større indflydelse på deres liv.
