The Making of an Icon

Ein emotionales und wichtiges BuchConny Böttger widmet ihr Leben der Tierrettung. Ihr Engagement nahm seine Anfänge, als ihr Großvater seinen Bauernhof schließen und seine letzte Kuh zum Schlachthof bringen wollte. Diese letzte Kuh markiert den Beginn einer sehr schönen und fast unglaublichen Geschichte.Neben ihrem Vollzeitberuf hat Conny mit ihren Unterstützer:innen in den letzten Jahren über 100 Rinder auf das Gut im Erzgebirge geholt, auf dem sie die Tiere unterstellen darf. Sie ist bei jeder Rettungsaktion persönlich dabei, kennt jede Kuh einzeln und weiß um ihre Gefühle und Bedürfnisse. Für Conny sind die Tiere nicht bloß Kühe, sie sind Lebewesen, deren Bedürfnisse über die Maßen schützenswert sind. Und das geht ins Herz.

Vom Glück, Kühe zu retten

Applying the approach of 'reading-as-a-writer' to the craft of writing for young people, this textbook combines critical analysis, unique author-insight and practical application of ideas to give writers the skills to create successful fiction for youth audiences. Under the guidance of children's author Elen Caldecott, compelling close readings dig deep into the construction of modern classics and contemporary middle grade, YA, picture books and more to explore how paragraphs, sentences and words engineer specific reader responses. Interviews with the author of the extracted work follow before each chapter rounds off with writing exercises that prompt writers to engage with techniques and ideas discussed. Accessible and equipping writers with the valuable knowledge and skills to write in one of the fastest-growing fields in creative writing, Writing for Young People draws upon the works of prominent writers such as Jon Klassen, Patrick Ness, Liz Kessler, Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé and more. It also features: - Author interviews covering topics such as their writing and editing process, their perspective on the analysis made of their work, and the book's origin - Discussion of vital craft techniques in novel-writing and editing including language, plotting, character construction, narrative time, worldbuilding, dialogue, cultural history, tropes and conventions - Coverage of key contemporary issues that students, teachers and professional writers of fiction for youth audiences will encounter from archetypes, class and race, and transnational writing, to conceptions of childhood, environment, colonialism, power, coming-of-age and social justice - Consideration of the role of wider literary and community landscapes in creating compelling texts Light-hearted but intellectually rigorous and rewarding, the field of writing for youth readers has been waiting for this book.

How to Thrive in Work and Life

Girl, You Got This!

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The unforgettable memoir by the late Virginia Roberts Giuffre, the woman who dared to take on Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell “Make no mistake: this is a book about power, corruption, industrial-scale sex abuse and the way in which institutions sided with the perpetrator over his victims. . . . But it is also a book about how a young woman becomes a hero. . . . Important [and] courageous.” —The Guardian The world knows Virginia Roberts Giuffre as Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s most outspoken victim: the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace. But her story has never been told in full, in her own words—until now. In April 2025, Giuffre took her own life. She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published. Nobody’s Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity. Here, Giuffre offers an unsparing and definitive account of her time with Epstein and Maxwell, who trafficked her and others to numerous prominent men. She also details the molestation she suffered as a child, as well as her daring escape from Epstein and Maxwell’s grasp at nineteen. Giuffre remade her life from scratch and summoned the courage to not only hold her abusers to account but also advocate for other victims. The pages of Nobody’s Girl preserve her voice—and her legacy—forever. Nobody’s Girl is an astonishing affirmation of Giuffre’s unshakable will—first, to claw her way out of victimhood, and then to shine light on wrongdoing and fight for a safer, fairer world. Equal parts intimate and fierce, it is a remarkable narrative of fortitude in the face of depravity and despair.

In this unique collection of essays, published writers offer an intimate view of how their work has been informed, shaped and transformed by their literary, political, philosophical or personal influences. Providing models of the critical commentaries that all students of creative writing must write, each essay from contemporary authors of fiction, creative non-fiction, poetry, scripts and digital writing demonstrates how what writers write is determined by what they have read, and what they read is then determined by what they are writing. As writers reflect on their process of moving from sources of inspiration to a finished and original piece of writing, they reveal their anxieties, passions, discoveries and motivations, offering fascinating insights into the imagination's journey. Introductory chapters explore why writers reflect on their own work, and place this practice in wider contexts, offering theoretical frameworks for understanding process, influence, and inspiration. As illuminating for aspiring writers as it is for students reflecting on their research and process as part of writing courses, Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary will change the way writers talk about and engage with other texts.

Creative Writing and the Critical Commentary

I freed myself from your father, I thought this would be a new life for me and now it's starting all over, everything's starting all over again. The blazing new book from once-in-a-generation writer Édouard Louis, as he helps his mother escape from an abusive partner SELECTED AS A BOOK TO READ FOR 2026 BY THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND NEW STATESMAN One evening, during a writers' residency in Athens, Édouard receives a tearful phone call from his mother, Monique. She tells him that the man she lives with in Paris is abusive, inflicting upon her the same drunken behaviour as Édouard's father, repeating the same cycles of violence, shame and humiliation she fled from before. Step by step, they plan her escape, celebrating each small victory of Monique's new beginning. But how do you rebuild your life when you've never truly known freedom? Monique Escapes is an intimate and gripping portrait of a mother fighting for her self-determination, and of the son who becomes her ally. It is a story of reinvention, the price of liberty and the remaking of the relationship between a mother and a son who, despite the weight of their shared history, manage to find each other again. Translated by John Lambert 'One of the most important, politically vital and morally bracing writers of his generation' GUARDIAN 'I feel so lucky to be living and writing at the same time as Édouard Louis' MAGGIE NELSON 'One of the major writers of our time' GARTH GREENWELL

Monique Escapes

The go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming accent and linguistic bias in the workplace. The way you speak can determine everything from whether you get hired or promoted, to whether people listen to you in meetings. It can affect the strength of your business relationships and reputation, but also whether people think they can trust you. We hear accents loud and clear, yet often they are quietly derailing our efforts to create inclusive work environments where every voice is heard. Linguistic discrimination is still unrecognized in the great majority of Diversity, Equity &amp; Inclusion (DEI) circles, yet it underpins every type of discrimination in the workplace from race and age to gender, neurodiversity and even sexuality. It is the hidden bias that is derailing even the best DEI efforts. Accent Matters is the go-to resource for uncovering, understanding and overcoming linguistic bias in the workplace. Through fascinating stories and examples of accent bias from all over the world, you'll find out how you've been conditioned to prefer certain accents over others, and how those preferences interfere with the way you listen to and interact with those around you. For those who have accents, but especially for those who think they don't, this book will be an eye-opening journey into a fundamental bias that affects every aspect of our lives, both professionally and personally.

Accent Matters

Forget the glass ceiling - there's also a glass wall dividing men and women in the workplace, separating them in terms of career success. In this ten-year anniversary edition of the bestselling book, the authors look at what has changed for women in the workplace since 2016. Spoiler alert - not a lot. The Glass Wall is a pragmatic guide to success for women at work. Since the first edition was published, whilst there has been some meaningful progress, in some areas, things have gone into reverse. In this 10th anniversary edition, the authors examine the latest research and gauge whether things have improved or not for women at work since the #MeToo movement and the global pandemic caused seismic change. Every week brings new headlines that cause unease as much as reason to celebrate. Meanwhile generative AI is sustaining stereotyped images and exacerbating inequity. In terms of real power, both in government and at work, things haven't changed enough. Debates about the pros and cons of remote and hybrid working continue to impact women and their careers. More companies offer parental leave to new parents, but most of it is still taken by mothers rather than fathers. The new debate around menopause at work is positive, unless it becomes another stick to keep women down. The Glass Wall, 10th Anniversary Edition helps new groups of women to navigate the workplace, make their lives happier, and empower real change.

Carlo Pedersoli - Bud Spencer: Ich geb Dir Festschrift!

Die Kunstfigur Bud Spencer teilte Ohrfeigen aus - mit einer Selbstverständlichkeit, die Millionen Menschen weltweit in seinen Bann zog. Dem Schauspieler, Sportler, Juristen, Erfinder und Unternehmer Carlo Pedersoli erweist diese Festschrift zehn Jahre nach seinem Tod die Ehre und legt zu seinem Gedächtnis eine wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit einem Phänomen vor, das weit über das Kino hinausgewachsen ist.

Autorinnen und Autoren aus Rechtswissenschaft, aber auch Filmwissenschaft, Soziologie, Psychologie, Kommunikationswissenschaft und Politik nehmen die Kunstfigur "Bud Spencer" aus ihren jeweiligen Fachperspektiven in den Blick.&nbsp;Dabei entfaltet sich ein überraschend vielschichtiges Bild: Wie funktioniert der burleske Humor der Spencer-Hill-Filme, welches Muster steht dahinter? Welche Rolle spielt der unterlegte Ton dabei? Was macht die kultige Synchronisation des "Schnodderdeutsch" urheberrechtlich so komplex? Welche Marken und posthumen Persönlichkeitsrechte schützen eine Legende im digitalen Zeitalter - und was passiert, wenn KI-Technologie Filme restauriert oder gar das Erbe einer Ikone neu erschafft? Wie sähe die Haftung für einen KI-gesteuerten "Buddynator"-Roboter aus?

Gleichzeitig fragen die Beiträge nach dem Politischen und Sozialen: Welche Diskussionen gab es um die Bürgerbeteiligung bei der Benennung öffentlicher Einrichtungen nach Bud Spencer? Warum war Bud Spencer stets "der Große für den kleinen Mann"? Welche Identitätsentwürfe transportieren seine Filme - und wie fügen sie sich in Debatten über Gender, Populärkultur und Bürgerbeteiligung ein?

Und last not least werden Diskriminierungsfragen nach dem AGG erörtert: Terence Hill bekommt keine Festschrift...

Eine Festschrift, die zeigt: Wer Bud Spencer wirklich verstehen will, braucht mehr als vier Fäuste.
