Cognitive and Emotional Aspects of
Academic Performance

Cognitive and Emotional Aspects of Academic Performance

A long-overdue analysis of how Black lesbians have asserted their lived experience through creative practice, pushing back against heteropatriarchal systems that deny them visibility.
 
 "We Must Document Ourselves Now" examines the essential but oft-ignored importance of Black lesbian literature and film in queer literary and film histories, arguing that Black lesbian cultural texts reflect creators' lived experiences and resist the heteropatriarchal systems that deny Black lesbians visibility in popular culture. Stephanie Andrea Allen contends that these texts have three goals: to lay bare the experiences of Black lesbians in a raced, gendered, classed, and homophobic society; to challenge the notion that claiming Black lesbian identity is marginal or forbidden; and to take care of Black lesbians by bearing witness to their experiences through creative practice.
 
 Insisting that Black feminist creative practice is an integral form of self and community care, Allen weaves analysis of cultural output spanning key sociocultural moments from 1974 to 2020 with interviews with Black lesbian cultural workers. "We Must Document Ourselves Now" examines the Black Arts / Black Power movement, the "boom" in lesbian and gay publishing, the so-called golden era of Black film, and twenty-first-century visual media to demonstrate how representations of Black lesbians, or lack thereof, were vital to constructing a cultural canon that focused on illuminating Black lesbian experiences in the United States.

Black Lesbian Cultural Legacies and the Politics of Self-Representation

"We Must Document Ourselves Now"

Charlotte Perkins Gilman (née Perkins; July 3, 1860 - August 17, 1935), also known by her first married name Charlotte Perkins Stetson, was an American humanist, novelist, writer, lecturer, advocate for social reform, and eugenicist. She was a utopian feminist and served as a role model for future generations of feminists because of her unorthodox concepts and lifestyle. She has been inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame. Her best remembered work today is her semi-autobiographical short story "The Yellow Wallpaper", which she wrote after a severe bout of postpartum psychosis.

Human Work (Esprios Classics)

In diesem Buch kommen 17 Ostdeutsche aller Generationen aus verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Bereichen zu Wort, von der Influencerin bis zum ehemaligen Bundespräsidenten, vom Popmusiker bis zur Filmregisseurin. Sie erzählen ihre Sicht auf das Erreichte und Unerreichte in dieser Region, die sie meist ihre Herkunft und oft ihre Heimat nennen oder mit der sie sich zumindest teilweise identifizieren. Denn alle eint, dass Ostdeutschland eine Rolle in ihrer Biografie spielt, sei es durch die frühe Prägung in der DDR geborener oder eine späte Zuwendung zur eigenen Ost-Identität im Zuge aktueller gesellschaftlicher Debatten. Es sind persönliche Einsichten und pointierte Draufsichten, private Erlebnisse und berufliche Erforschungen, die in ihrer Vielfalt dieses Buch so wertvoll machen, vor allem durch die Perspektiven verschiedener Generationen. Gerade in der Debatte um Gegenwart und Zukunft der Region und die Frage nach einer ostdeutschen Identität leistet die Veröffentlichung einen wichtigen Beitrag.

Die DNA des Ostens

This book explores how digital acceleration and algorithmic mediation have transformed the temporal structure of modern journalism. It considers journalism to be a temporal institution that must balance speed with reflection and automation with human interpretation. Drawing on sociological theories, the book examines practices such as slow journalism and local storytelling, which seek to resist the culture of immediacy. Through qualitative research and case studies, the book puts forward the "downbeat" as a metaphor for reclaiming journalistic time - an alternative rhythm through which depth, resonance and ethical awareness can once again define the meaning and public value of news in the digital age.

Downbeat Rhythms in Contemporary Journalism

Out of Time

The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State is an 1884 philosophical treatise by Friedrich Engels. It is partially based on notes by Karl Marx to Lewis H. Morgan's book Ancient Society (1877). The book is an early historical materialist work and is regarded as one of the first major works on family economics.

The writing of The Origin of the Family began in early April 1884, and was completed on 26 May. Engels began work on the treatise after reading Marx's handwritten synopsis of Lewis H. Morgan's Ancient Society; or, Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery, Through Barbarism to Civilization, first published in London in 1877. Engels believed that Marx had intended to create a critical book-length treatment of the ideas suggested by Morgan, and aimed to produce such a manuscript to fulfill his late comrade's wishes

Das Future-Proof-Mindset

Warum der direkte Weg nicht immer der klügste istDer America's Cup ist einer der bekanntesten und härtesten Segelwettbewerbe der Welt. Das Besondere daran ist, dass der Gewinner den nächsten Wettbewerb ausrichtet und die Regeln verändern kann. 
Dominik Neidhart hat an drei verschiedenen America's-Cup-Challenges teilgenommen - und erlebte ein wenig erfolgreiches Startprojekt, einen triumphalen Sieg sowie eine bittere Niederlage. In diesem Buch schreibt er über seine persönlichen Erfahrungen hinter den Kulissen, über die Wichtigkeit von schnellen Entscheidungen, über Risikobereitschaft, ständige Innovation als Normalzustand, das Anerkennen von Grenzen, Kompromisslosigkeit bei Erfolgskriterien, aber auch über die dunkle Seite von High Performance.

Wenn Regeln nicht die Regel sind

The War You Never Saw exposes a hidden battlefield where influence replaces force, narratives replace weapons, and control operates without ever announcing itself. This is not a war of tanks and borders-it is a war of perception, attention, psychology, and quiet systems that shape human behavior without consent.

In today's world, power no longer needs violence to dominate. It works through media, economics, technology, institutions, and social conditioning-guiding what people believe, fear, desire, and accept as "normal." This book reveals how modern control thrives on invisibility, distraction, and engineered agreement, turning ordinary life into a silent battleground.
Inside this book, you will discover:How influence has replaced armies as the primary weapon of power
Why the most powerful systems avoid attention and accountability
How media, narratives, and selective information shape reality
How distraction, emotional manipulation, and fear are used strategically
Why authority is visible-but real power is structural and unseen
How freedom is redefined, narrowed, and quietly managed
How awareness itself becomes an act of resistance



This is not a conspiracy book. It is a clarity book.
Written in a sharp, philosophical, and psychologically grounded style, The War You Never Saw does not tell you what to think-it shows you how thinking is shaped. It does not offer villains-it reveals systems. And it does not promote panic-it builds awareness.

If you have ever felt that something is wrong beneath the surface of modern life-but couldn't fully explain it-this book gives language to that intuition.
Because the most dangerous war is not the one you fear.
 It is the one you never notice.

And once you see it, it can no longer control you.

How Power Operates in Silence

The War You Never Saw

It has become increasingly common to discredit the great modern worldviews, arguing that their attempts to realize ideals have ended in failure. The first to be criticized was Enlightenment leftism, following the collapse of real socialism. This was followed by other failures--wars, crises, ecological disasters--which also affected liberalism, unable to build a better society. All this has fostered a collective sense of defeat: we no longer understand reality, nor do we know how to relate to it. We once believed we could; now we feel intellectually disillusioned and politically frustrated. As a Benjaminian might say, we live among ruins.

Resabiados Y Resentidos

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

The Emergence of an Arab Global Business

Out of the Middle East

The Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches is a 1903 work of American literature by W. E. B. Du Bois. It is a seminal work in the history of sociology and a cornerstone of African-American literature.

The book contains several essays on race, some of which had been published earlier in The Atlantic Monthly. To develop this work, Du Bois drew from his own experiences as an African American in American society. Outside of its notable relevance in African-American history, The Souls of Black Folk also holds an important place in social science as one of the early works in the field of sociology.

In The Souls of Black Folk, Du Bois used the term "double consciousness", perhaps taken from Ralph Waldo Emerson ("The Transcendentalist" and "Fate"), applying it to the idea that black people must have two fields of vision at all times. They must be conscious of how they view themselves, as well as being conscious of how the world views them.
