Les singularités judiciaires sont nombreuses et variées au moyen âge, et souvent les magistrats interviennent dans des circonstances si bizarres, que nous avons peine à comprendre, nos jours, comment ces graves organes de la justice ont pu raisonnablement figurer dans de telles affaires. Toutefois notre but n¿est pas de critiquer ici des sages plus ou moins absurdes, mais d¿en constater simplement l¿existence. Nous bornons notre rôle { raconter les faits, sauf au lecteur à en tirer lui-même les conséquences. Plusieurs siècles nous séparent de l¿époque dont nous cherchons { étudier les m¿urs et les idées, qui forment avec les nôtres de si étranges disparates ; aussi n¿est-ce qüaprès de scrupuleuses recherches faites dans les ouvrages des jurisconsultes et des historiens les plus respectables, que nous avons osé présenter cette rapide esquisse.
Kleine Formen sind jüngst in das Blickfeld literatur-, medien- und kulturwissenschaftlicher Untersuchungen geraten. Dabei wird oft das politische Potenzial kleiner Formen verkannt. Eingebettet in fluide Publikationsorgane und insbesondere im digitalen Kontext können sie unterschwellig kollektive Dynamiken bündeln, kritisch-subversiv den gesellschaftspolitischen Status quo infrage stellen und alternative Gemeinschaftsbildung entwerfen - auch in gattungspolitischer Hinsicht: So lenkt das Prekäre und Randständige kleiner Formen den Blick auf die Unabgeschlossenheit von Gattungen und lässt die dynamischen Wechselwirkungen zwischen Genres, Schreibweisen und Medien hervortreten. In drei Sektionen behandelt der Band die politische Kommunikation kleiner Formen: als Teil einer digitalen Streit- und Protestkultur; als diskursive Plattform für Zeitgeschichte sowie als kreative Ausdrucksregime, die - etwa als Paratexte - auch formalästhetisch hegemoniale Sichtweisen und Wahrnehmungsmodi entthronen können. Es sind Fragen von ästhetischer und politischer Gemeinschaftsbildung, die der Sammelband epochen- und medienübergreifend behandeln möchte und die interdisziplinäre Anschlüsse für die Forschung bilden.

"She took the record out and put it on. As it started to play, she simply didn't know if good memories would come back. Maybe bad memories would overtake them. Whichever way she felt, she just knew that it was 'absolutely necessary' to purely have it play." Elsie Ragusin started out in life with everything laid out. She was passionate about God, music, and her family. However, life would soon test her in the most unimaginable ways. She would realize that during the worst atrocities that human history has ever witnessed, she had to rely completely on her Christian faith to get by. Some days, she never ate or felt too weak to work in the concentration camps. Her mental strength in using music and the hope of getting back to her family helped her get through it in 1945. Yet, those haunting memories are what she still has to overcome. Will she use the talents that God has given her to show her present family that one can truly overcome anything? Listen and follow along with Elsie's Tune.
A psychological fictional novel, which recreates Ludovico, a character who narrates in monologues his vision of the world despite having mental limitations due to a hereditary condition of mental damage. "Ludovico" is a novel with which William Castaño-Bedoya surprises us, reaffirming his talents as a recreator of human depth."Ludovico" demonstrates the great impact of frustration and its generalities, and how impotence and fate recreate the absurd and the uncertain. William manages to stage the impact of the arrival of beings with differences to the spectrum of normality that is commonly known. Ludovico would not have been possible if the author had not studied similar characters for many years before undertaking the work of his novel.At first, the reader may think that Ludovico is a character who intends to show us his limited and boring world, but as the story progresses, we discover a primary and elementary orb that does not lack its interpretations, its feelings, its compassion, and its passions. However, the reader faces the great and painful paradox of this novel, which Ludovico suffers and tells unconsciously. The drama of his life, restricted by his poor comprehension, his disobedient vision, and his clumsy ear, condemns him to a fractional understanding that he tries to fill with his fantasy. The story of the one who carries within him an unopened irony and whose simplicity leads us unexpectedly to the borders of laughter and crying.

Hillary sent an email to Donna Brazile 10/17/2016 warning, "If that (explicative deleted) Bastard Wins, we all hang from nooses...."General McInerney's Warning: On Nov 2, 2020, McInerney went on the Steve Bannon War Room.
