Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (MP3-Download)
Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a late 14th-century chivalric romance in Middle English. The author is unknown; the title was given centuries later. It is one of the best-known Arthurian stories, with its plot combining two types of folk motifs: the beheading game, and the exchange of winnings. Written in stanzas of alliterative verse, each of which ends in a rhyming bob and wheel;[1] it draws on Welsh, Irish, and English stories, as well as the French chivalric tradition. It is an important example of a chivalric romance, which typically involves a hero who goes on a quest which tests his prowess. It remains popular in modern English renderings from J. R. R. Tolkien, Simon Armitage, and others, as well as through film and stage adaptations.- Shop: buecher

Power and Prestige
The book features a selection of works ranging from 40 centimetres in height to over two metres, to be staged in Venice by the Giancarlo Ligabue Foundation in partnership with the Musée du Quai Branly - Jacques Chirac in Paris, which will be the next site to host the exhibition. The exhibition also involves the collaboration of the British Museum, which has contributed some "extremely important" loans; curated by Steve Hooper, it presents exhibits from collections in the United Kingdom and Europe, including some objects from the Venice collection itself. For a long time these clubs were simply considered as weapons used by "savage" tribes, and were relegated to a minor role, but these 'power' clubs are actually a complex expression of Oceanic art and were key objects used in trade and ceremonies.- Shop: buecher

God's Dream
With warmth and humor, Archbishop Desmond Tutu distills his philosophy of unity and forgiveness into a picture book for the very young. Archbishop Desmond Tutu has a vision of God's dream, which he shares here with the youngest of listeners. It involves people who reach out and hold each other's hands, but sometimes get angry and hurt each other — and say they're sorry and forgive. It's a wish that everyone will see they are brothers and sisters, no matter their way of speaking to God, no matter the size of their nose or the shade of their skin. Aided by vibrant artwork evoking such images as a rainbow and a sharing circle, Tutu offers the essence of his ubuntu philosophy, a wisdom so clear and crystalline that even the smallest child can understand.- Shop: buecher

Embodying the Monster (eBook, PDF)
Written by one of the most distinguished commentators in the field, this book asks why we see some bodies as 'monstrous' or 'vulnerable' and examines what this tells us about ideas of bodily 'normality' and bodily perfection. Drawing on feminist theories of the body, biomedical discourse and historical data, Margrit Shildrick argues that the response to the monstrous body has always been ambivalent. In trying to organize it out of the discourses of normality, we point to the impossibility of realizing a fully developed, invulnerable self. She calls upon us to rethink the monstrous, not as an abnormal category, but as a condition of attractivenes, and demonstrates how this involves an exploration of relationships between bodies and embodied selves, and a revising of the phenomenology of the body.- Shop: buecher

Father Declan's Uncanny Creatures (A Father Declan Supernatural Mystery, #1) (eBook, ePUB)
Uncanny Creatures in Father Declan's Supernatural Mysteries Franciscan Father Declan O'Shea, with his spiritual gift of Insight, has encountered a variety of supernatural beings. His ministry of reconciliation and setting captives free most often involves releasing earthbound spirits. But sometimes, the Irish friar finds himself assisting souls of an entirely different sort. In this collection of six long-form short stories previously published individually, Father Declan helps a curmudgeonly leprechaun rescue a kidnapped kinsman, repels an invasion of malodorous peat faeries, finds himself and his pagan companion Morgan Delaney swarmed by zombie ghost rats, gets a little "gruff" with a Norwegian bridge troll, engages in silly spiritual warfare with mischievous Christmas imps, and helps tame a distraught werewolf. The Father Declan stories are always upbeat and redemptive. Some are humorous, and others mildly horrific.- Shop: buecher
