Eduard Moerike - AEsthetik und Geselligkeit (9783484108646)

Nach wie vor findet Moerike (1804-1875) nicht die Aufmerksamkeit, die ihm eigentlich zukame - wohl auch, weil er sich nicht leicht den grossen Tendenzen des 19. Jahrhunderts zuordnen lasst: Er ist kein Intellektueller wie Heine. Er mischt sich nicht in die grossen politischen Debatten ein. Er thematisiert nicht die wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Umwalzungen. Er begehrt nicht gegen die Dominanz der deutschen Klassik auf; er ist kein Denkmalsturzer. Das Nebensachliche bekommt bei ihm besondere Bedeutung; es wird in einen asthetischen Reflexionsprozess hineingezogen, der mit lebensweltlichen Konkretisierungen einhergeht, so dass sich "AEsthetik"und "Geselligkeit" gegenseitig hervorbringen und spiegeln.

Airfix : Celebrating 50 Years of the Greatest Modelling Kits Ever Made (0004723279)

Airfix models will be 50 years old in 1999. Only a very sad minority of men aged 30-50 did not make Airfix kits when they were boys. This book enables the rest of us to relive the glory days of our plastic air forces (or tank fleets) and perhaps to pass the torch to our children. Superbly executed studio photographs show all the obscure and highly collectible kits as well as the best sellers, with illustrations of the packets, box art, adverts in 1960s and 1970s magazines, and a mass of period ephemera. The accompanying text charts the rise, fall and rise again of Airfix models. It's a jolly read, a nostalgic reminder of kits long vanished, but with a happy ending: Airfix are now re-releasing 40 kits a year, bringing back some not seen for twenty years.
