Himmel under Berlin är en resa med musikaliska förtecken i Berlins tunnelbana. Petr Bém bryter upp från sitt liv i Prag, tar sin gitarr och ger sig av till den tyska metropolen. På en rytmisk och pulserande prosa skildras hans möten med originella karaktärer ? såväl levande som döda ? i Berlins underjordiska värld. Jaroslav Rudis har förmågan att iaktta sin samtid och ge röst åt udda figurer. Handlingen rör sig framåt i högt tempo, språket är färgat av den skitiga, urbana miljön och karaktärernas svada ges fritt utlopp. Det är samtida, medryckande och serverat med en stor portion humor.

Sammetsrevolutionen 1989 förändrade på ett omvälvande sätt litteraturens villkor i Tjeckien. Författarna fick plötsligt en helt ny verklighet att förhålla sig till. Tiden som följde blev dynamisk. Bokmarknaden formligen exploderade med en salig blandning av högt och lågt. Många äldre författare hade svårt att finna sig till rätta, medan de yngre började experimentera och tänja på språkets gränser. Efterhand tog nya författarskap form som har kommit att dominera och förnya den litterära scenen. Två decennier efter murens fall är den tjeckiska litteraturen en spännande och färgstark blandning av etablerade författare och nydanande debutanter. Den här antologin gläntar på dörren till det magiska, det tragiska, det burleska och det humoristiska i den samtida tjeckiska litteraturen.

To understand how complex dynamic systems, living or non-living, linguistic or non-linguistic, come to be organized as systems, to understand how their inherent dynamic nature gives rise to organizations and forms that have found a balance between potentiality for change and evolution on the one hand, and requisite stability in a given environment on the other, is the main ambition of the study of evolutionary systems. The aim of the present volume is to elucidate the scientific and philosophical backgrounds that play a role in the debate taking place in evolutionary systems, namely that on the relation between selection and self-organization. The book represents an interdisciplinary forum in which the major representatives of evolutionary systems take part.

Eleven years before Uncle Tom's Cabin fanned the fires of abolition in North America, an aristocratic Cuban woman told an impassioned story of the fatal love of a mulatto slave for his white owner's daughter. So controversial was Sab's theme of miscegenation and its parallel between the powerlessness and enslavement of blacks and the economic and matrimonial subservience of women that the book was not published in Cuba until 1914, seventy-three years after its original 1841 publication in Spain.Also included in the volume is Avellaneda's Autobiography (1839), whose portrait of an intelligent, flamboyant woman struggling against the restrictions of her era amplifies the novel's exploration of the patriarchal oppression of minorities and women.

The traditional dating of the origin of psychoanalysis to 1900, when Freud published The Interpretation of Dreams, ignores the massive body of work he produced well before this date. Covering fields as diverse as neurology, physiology, philosophy, and pharmacology, this wealth of unjustly neglected material was to have a profound influence upon the
