Lexikon der Tiersymbolik (3927369616)

Wer romanische oder gotische Kirchen besucht, Mythen, Märchen, Fabeln oder Legenden liebt, wer die Sprache des Unbewussten wie in unseren Träumen besser verstehen will und wer schließlich in die Alltags- oder Werbesprache lauscht, der wird häufig auf Tiere stoßen: auf reale und auf Fabelwesen. Sie tragen vielschichtige Bedeutungen, halten Aussagen für und über uns bereit. Sie werden zu Symbolen, d. h., sie schließen Zugänge auf zum Seelischen und darüber hinaus zu transpersonalen Bereichen. Dieses Lexikon stellt die wichtigsten Tiersymbolträger aus dem abendländischen Kulturbereich von AZ vor und bietet darüber hinaus Einblicke in die Tiersymbolik außereuropäischer Kulturen. Dabei werden Erkenntnisse aus alten Mythen der Völker, aus vergleichender Religionsbetrachtung, aus Astronomie, Astrologie, Mystik, Tiefenpsychologie und Volkskunde prägnant und unterhaltsam vermittelt. Ausgehend von der Urbedeutung, die meist im Natur- oder Astralmythischen wurzelt und aus einer frühen Jägergesel...

The Human Stain (9780099282198)



'An extraordinary book - bursting with rage, humming with ideas, full of dazzling sleights of hand'- Sunday Telegraph

Philip Roth's brilliant conclusion to his eloquent trilogy of post-war America - a magnificent successor to American Pastoral and I Married a Communist

It is 1998, the year America is plunged into a frenzy of prurience by the impeachment of a president, and in a small New England town a distinguished classics professor, Coleman Silk, is forced to retire when his colleagues allege that he is a racist. The charge is unfounded, the persecution needless, but the truth about Silk would astonish even his most virulent accuser.

Coleman Silk has a secret, one which has been kept for fifty years from his wife, his four children, his colleagues, and his friends, including the writer Nathan Zuckerman.

It is Zuckerman who comes upon Silk's secret, and sets out to unearth his former buried life, piecing the biographical fragments back together. This is against backdrop of seismic shifts in American history, which take on real, human urgency as Zuckerman discovers more and more about Silk's past and his futile search for renewal and regeneration.

The Lies of Locke Lamora : The deviously twisty fantasy adventure you will not want to put down (9780575079755)

'One of my top ten books ever. Maybe top five. If you haven't read it, you should' Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times bestselling author of The Name of the Wind 'Fresh, original and engrossing' George R.R. Martin, the phenomenon behind A Game of Thrones They say that the Thorn of Camorr can beat anyone in a fight. They say he steals from the rich and gives to the poor. They say he's part man, part myth, and mostly street-corner rumor. And they are wrong on every count. Only averagely tall, slender, and god-awful with a sword, Locke Lamora is the fabled Thorn, and the greatest weapons at his disposal are his wit and cunning. He steals from the rich - they're the only ones worth stealing from - but the poor can go steal for themselves. What Locke cons, wheedles and tricks into his possession is strictly for him and his band of fellow con-artists and thieves: the Gentleman Bastards. Together their domain is the city of Camorr. Built of Elderglass by a race ...
