Sentís E: Diálogo con el tabaco

Diálogo con el tabaco

A stunning volume illuminating the artistic exchange between three seminal American artists—Milton Avery, Adolph Gottlieb, and Mark Rothko. This groundbreaking book underscores the lasting significance of the summers they spent together by the sea in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in the 1930s and 1940s. Milton Avery, a modernist painter at work in the first half of the twentieth century, is rarely linked to Adolph Gottlieb or Mark Rothko, who were twenty years younger and would become associated with the New York School in the 1950s. While Avery consistently drew inspiration from the visible world, Gottlieb and Rothko invented abstract pictorial languages all their own. Despite these differences, they were a tight-knit trio whose camaraderie and mutual love of the ocean had lasting impact on their work. This pioneering volume traces their friendship from 1932, when they first summered together on Cape Ann, through the crystallization of their ideas in the 1940s, to the deeply centering decades that followed, when all three created the mature, independent painting styles for which they are best known. This late work, each in its own way, is indebted to the time the artists spent together on the rocky coast and sandy beaches of Cape Ann. Contributions by leading scholars and family members enrich this unique exploration of artistic friendship and its bearing on the work of three of the twentieth century’s most celebrated artists.

Avery, Gottlieb & Rothko

NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE SUMMER BY PEOPLE, LOS ANGELES TIMES, THE BOSTON GLOBE, TIME, HARPER'S BAZAAR, THE MILLIONS, BOOK RIOT, AND TOWN &amp; COUNTRY “Stories that remind you why Sigrid Nunez is one of our best writers. Her first collection of short fiction, It Will Come Back to You, is threaded with erudition but never pretentious.” —The New York Times "It Will Come Back To You should make you want to imbibe every word Nunez has ever written." —The Times Literary Supplement (UK) "One of the great writers of our time." —Los Angeles Times The first ever collection of short stories from the New York Times bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend Over the course of thirty years, Sigrid Nunez has become one of contemporary fiction’s most distinctive voices, producing nine penetrating, profound novels celebrated by fans and critics alike. Revered for their warm, unadorned style, Nunez’s books are “as sophisticated as they are straightforward” (New York Times Magazine), melding a “wry, withering wit” (NPR) with “explosions of pathos” (Washington Post) to conjure “world[s] of insight into death, grief, art, and love” (Wall Street Journal). But she has not, until now, produced a book of stories. In It Will Come Back to You, Nunez brings together thirteen of her best stories from the decades-long sweep of her career, tracing the origins of her style and her remarkable artistic range. Moving from the momentous to the mundane, Nunez maintains her expert balance between gravity and levity while probing the philosophical questions that illuminate her work. What New York Times critic Dwight Garner says of Nunez’s novels is true of these stories as well: “They are . . . wise, provocative, funny—good and strong company.”

A new paradigm based on quantum probability that can model stock markets and price options—and also upends classical quantitative finance. In The Quantum Stock Market, David Orrell combines theory and new empirical findings to argue for a new approach to finance based on quantum probability. The main finding, a property called q-variance, may be unique in finance in that it was discovered as the result of a prediction, affects financial markets in general, has no tunable parameter, and has important consequences for a range of topics including the pricing of financial options. The property, which somehow eluded detection for over a century, has been verified by experts in the field. And the fact that it is incompatible with classical finance—which is perhaps why it went undetected—suggests that the field must be reinvented. Orrell argues for nothing less than a paradigm shift in finance. As with any new work that challenges existing methods the ideas have already received pushback, from leaders in the field of finance to physicists skeptical of applying quantum probability outside its traditional domain. Written in an interdisciplinary style that mixes mathematical equations, data analysis, and informed comments on the field of finance, The Quantum Stock Market should be read by anyone who wants to be on the right side of a paradigm shift.

The aim of this book is therefore nothing less than to initiate a paradigm shift in finance. As with any new work that challenges existing methods, the ideas have already received considerable pushback from a range of sources, including leaders in the field of finance, along with physicists skeptical of applying quantum probability outside its traditional domain. Written in an interdisciplinary style that mixes mathematical equations, data analysis, and informed comment on the field of finance, it should be read by anyone—including students, academics, and practitioners—who wants to be on the right side of a paradigm shift.

And the Road Not Taken in Finance

The Quantum Stock Market

From the popular and award-winning staff writer for The Atlantic, an eye-opening look at how the current media landscape has incentivized us to see our fellow citizens as characters in an ongoing entertainment—and how we can fight back against this phenomenon.Whether it’s our reality-television-star President or our expertly curated Instagram feeds, the line between fact and fiction—between what’s real and what’s fabricated for entertainment—has never been more blurred. Screen People explores what happens when we cede our reality to spectacle. Megan Garber explains how today’s internet-inflected culture conditions us to see one another not as people but as characters in an ongoing show, and how some of our most chronic and harmful social conditions—loneliness, depression, mistrust, misinformation, cynicism—stem from our demand for diversion.In ten chapters, each themed around an element of entertainment—from “The Producers,” who edit our reality, to “The Extras,” the strangers we turn into objects of our amusement, to “the Haters,” the worshipful Qanon-types who expect the prophecies of their anonymous leader to play out on live television—Garber argues that this comedy of our daily lives is quickly becoming tragedy. And we can’t understand our politics without first understanding our culture.Like The Anxious Generation but about our media diet, Screen People shows why Megan Garber is one of the most respected and widely-read journalists of our day. It is an urgent, page-turning, and dazzling look at how we entertained ourselves into our current predicament, and how we might find our way out of the maze of misinformation and chaos.

How We Entertained Ourselves Into a State of Emergency

Screen People

An accessible, powerful overview of Noam Chomsky's political thoughtIn sixteen extended talks with Alternative Radio's David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky explains why the 'war on drugs' is really a war on poor people; how attacks on political correctness are attacks on independent thought; how historical revisionism has recast the United States as the victim in the Vietnam War. Widely recognized as one of the most original and important thinkers of our age, Chomsky's trenchant analysis of current events is a breath of fresh air in a world more and more polluted by mainstream media.

Chronicles of Dissent

Canons

A spare volume that bursts with insight by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Dillard, illuminating the creative process and the trials of a writer's life

The Writing Life

Diese Sammlung ist keine militärhistorische Abhandlung - sie ist eine literarische Annäherung an das Unfassbare. 
Dieter Liebig folgt den Spuren großer Schriftsteller: Stefan Zweig, Alexander Solschenizyn, Georg Trakl, Egon Erwin Kisch, Henri Barbusse, Ernest Hemingway und andere begleiten ihn an die Fronten von Tannenberg, Galizien, Verdun und an die Somme.
In Essays, Erzählungen und szenischen Stücken verdichten sich literarische Zeugnisse, persönliche Familiengeschichte und eigene Reisen zu den Schauplätzen des Krieges zu einem vielschichtigen Panorama. Zwischen Propaganda und Wahrheit, Begeisterung und Entsetzen, Glaube und Verlust fragt der Autor nach Verantwortung, Schuld und Erinnerung.

Ein Buch über den Krieg - und über das Ringen um Menschlichkeit inmitten der Katastrophe.

Essays und Stücke zum Ersten Weltkrieg nach literarischen Vorlagen

Vor Verdun fand ich meinen Glauben

Angesichts einer Welt, die in Tyrannei und neuem Autoritarismus zu versinken droht, heißt die Kunst der Stunde Widerstand. Dabei gilt es, der Versuchung zu trotzen, eine komplexe Welt in lächerliche Eindeutigkeiten aufzulösen, und die Falle übergroßer Gemäßigtheit zu vermeiden.
Radikal in Ambition, vernünftig in Stil und Ton, gewinnend und den Menschen zugewandt - diese Richtschnur zieht sich wie ein roter Faden durch die preisgekrönten Essays von Robert Misik.
Mit Verve setzt sich der Autor zwischen alle Stühle. Misik stemmt sich gegen die 'Zerstörung der Vernunft' durch den neuen Faschismus und nimmt zugleich manche Verrücktheiten der heutigen Linken aufs Korn. Die politischen Verwüstungen unserer Zeit beschreibt er mit kulturellem Tiefgang, so wie er die politische Radikalität von Künstlern wie Annie Ernaux, Franz Kafka, Pier Paolo Pasolini oder George Orwell für unsere Zeit freilegt.

Von Marx bis Kafka, von Orwell bis Butler

Die Kunst des Widerstands

Ein Zwischenruf im Zeitalter der politischen Manipulation
 – auf der Suche nach der Wahrheit mit Werner Herzog
 Der große Erzähler Werner Herzog fragt nach der seltsamsten aller Erzählungen: der von der Wahrheit. Was ist wahr? In einer Welt, die durch Fake News, politische Manipulation und künstliche Intelligenz verunsichert ist, die auf kalte Fakten setzt und doch die Poesie und den Film erfunden hat, muss Wahrheit mehr als bloß stumpfe Empirie bedeuten. Von einem erfundenen Schlachtensieg des Pharao Ramses bis zum modernen Mythos der Entführung durch Außerirdische, von ekstatischen Momenten am Filmset bis zu seinen Begegnungen mit der Wirklichkeit durch tagelanges Gehen reiht Werner Herzog auf einmalige Weise faszinierende Überlegungen und Erinnerungen aneinander. Ein Buch für alle, die sich wundern können.&nbsp;

Die Zukunft der Wahrheit

*Shortlisted for the Cundill History Prize* What would women do with their lives if they had more time? The riveting, untold story of a revolutionary campaign to change the way work is valued 'The women of the world are serving notice. We want wages for every dirty toilet, every indecent assault, every painful childbirth, every cup of coffee and every smile. And if we don't get what we want, we will simply refuse to work any longer!' Across the globe in the 1970s, a network of feminists distilled their struggles into a single demand: Wages for Housework! Today, it remains a provocative idea, and an unfulfilled promise. Here historian Emily Callaci tells the story of this campaign by exploring the lives and ideas of its key creators, tracing their wildly creative political vision over the past five decades: from the early 1970s, when Selma James, a working-class political organizer, and Mariarosa Dalla Costa, a scholar-activist, started laying the foundations of Wages for Housework in London and Italy; through philosopher Silvia Federici reframing the campaign in the context of New York City's fiscal crisis; to Wilmette Brown, lesbian poet and anti-war activist, and Margaret Prescod, community organizer, who brought the insights of Black feminism to the movement. Drawing on new archival research and extensive interviews, Callaci takes us deep inside the heart of the movement as it reached across Europe, America, Africa and the Caribbean. For these women, the wage was more than a demand for money: it was a starting point for remaking the world as we know it, imagining potential futures under capitalism - and beyond. Then as now, Wages for Housework poses profound questions. What would it be like to live in a society that prioritizes care rather than production? How would this change our relationship with the natural world? And what would women do with their lives if they had more time?

The Story of a Movement, an Idea, a Promise

Wages for Housework

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment and control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.
