Roads to Berlin

Roads to Berlin

Cees Nooteboom

MacLehose Press
2013
pokkari
Roads to Berlin maps the changing landscape of Germany, from the period before the fall of the Wall to the present. Written and updated over the course of several decades, an eyewitness account of the pivotal events of 1989 gives way to a perceptive appreciation of its difficult passage to reunification. Nooteboom's writings on politics, people, architecture and culture are as digressive as they are eloquent; his innate curiosity takes him through the landscapes of Heine and Goethe, steeped in Romanticism and mythology, and to Germany's baroque cities. With an outsider's objectivity he has crafted an intimate portrait of the country to its present day.

Set in the cities and islands of the Mediterranean, and linked thematically, the eight stories in The Foxes Come at Night read more like a novel, a meditation on memory, life and death. Their protagonists collect and reconstruct fragments of lives lived intensely, and now lost, crystallized in memory or in the detail of a photograph. And yet the tone of these stories is far from pessimistic: it seems that death is nothing to be afraid of.

One of the world‘s leading mass communication researchers here presents an accessible guide to the current state of global communication. He first sets the scene by exploring the notion of the ‘global village‘. He looks at how the media, globally, define ‘newsworthiness‘ as well as the machinations of the international media marketplace. The book then presents a full history of world communication - from carrier pigeons to the Internet - exploring the factors that have shaped that history, including technological development and international relations, state manipulation, and the interests of trans-national corporations. The third section explores recent communication trends that have had the most profound effect on the world‘s people - digitalization, consolidation, deregulation and globalization. Finally, the book looks at the idea of empowerment as applied to communication. It shows how global communication in its current manifestation is profoundly disempowering. The book ends with Professor Hamelink‘s ideas for changing this and a draft ‘People‘s Communication Charter‘.

Tolerance : Experiments with Freedom in the Netherlands

Tolerance : Experiments with Freedom in the Netherlands

Cees Maris

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2018
nidottu
This book presents a collection of philosophical essays on freedom and tolerance in the Netherlands. It explores liberal freedom and its limits in areas such as freedom of speech, public reason, sexual morality, euthanasia, drugs policy, and minority rights. The book takes Dutch practices as exemplary test cases for the principled discussions on these subjects from the perspective of political liberalism. Indeed, the Netherlands may be viewed as a social laboratory in human tolerance. During the Cultural Revolution of the 1960s, Holland took the lead in a global emancipation process towards a society based on equal freedom. It was the first country to legalize euthanasia, soft drugs and gay marriage. In the final sections, the book examines the question of whether the political murders on the politician Pim Fortuyn and the film director Theo van Gogh, the reactions to Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s film Submission, as well as the success of the populist politician Geert Wilders are signs ofthe end of Dutch tolerance. Although it recognizes that the political climate has taken a conservative turn, the book shows that the Netherlands still shows remarkable tolerance.

Er nimmt den Leser mit in sein Amsterdam und in die europäischen Metropolen wie Paris, Berlin, Wien, Brüssel oder Mailand und Florenz. er bereist Landschaften in vielen europäischen Ländern, darunter die Betragne, franken und die Lombardei. was er dabei hört und sieht, gerät ihm zu bekannt eleganter Prosa, zu eigenwilliger Philosophie. Seine Eindrücke verbindet er mit seinem fast enzyklopädischen zu nennenden wissen und läßt Dichter zu Wort kommen, die mit ihm neue Bilder und Gefühle auch für einen altbekannten Ort oder Kunstgegenstand entstehen lassen.

?Ich bin wieder angekommen in meinem Sommerdomizil. Die herrenlose Katze hat sich zum Fressen eingefunden, die Palmen sind um einen unsichtbaren Zentimeter gewachsen, da sind die Bücher wieder, die ich vergessen habe, und ich nehme Platz gegenüber der weiß verputzten Natursteinmauer, die mich schon seit fast zwanzig Jahren mit ihrer Leere erregt.? Jedes Jahr im Juli landet Cees Nooteboom auf seiner Insel Menorca und bringt von dort und anderen Teilen Spaniens Geschichten mit, denen wir in seinen Romanen, seinen Feuilletons, Reportagen und Gedichten wiederbegegnen. In Die Insel, das Land erzählt der große Autor von Don Miguel, dem 87 Jahre alten Postboten, von einem Mädchen namens ?Schnee? und einem anderen, das ?Liebe? heißt, von Blumen, der Sonne und dem Meer, erinnert sich an die unvergeßliche Stimme einer spanischen Nachrichtensprecherin, thematisiert aber auch Gefahren, die dem Lande drohen: von Fanatikern und unfähigen Politikern, vom Tourismus, der die Küsten zerstört, und von sozialen Veränderungen, die das Gleichgewicht der Gesellschaft Spaniens gefährden. Nooteboom schildert uns ein Land, in dem ?die Zeit aus Sand? ist und dessen Menschen er mit Zuneigung betrachtet, wissend, daß er nur ein Passant ist, einer aber, der von sich sagen kann: ?Ich liebe Spanien.?
