Moab Is My WashpotStephen FryTaschenbuchMoab is My Washpot is in turns funny, shocking, tender, delicious, sad, lyrical, bruisingly frank and addictively readable. Stephen Fry's bestselling memoir tells how, sent to a boarding school 200 miles from home at the age of seven, he survived beatings, misery, love, ecstasy, carnal violation, expulsion, imprisonment, criminal conviction, probation and catastrophe to emerge, at eighteen, ready to try and face the world in which he had always felt a stranger. Fry writes with the wit to which we have become accustomed, but with shocking candour too. In an age of glossy celebrity autobiographies, Moab is My Washpot sets the high standard to which others should aspire. |
Journey to the Abyss: The Diaries of Count Harry Kessler 1880-1918Harry KesslerTaschenbuchThese fascinating, never-before-published early diaries of Count Harry Kessler-patron, museum director, publisher, cultural critic, soldier, secret agent, and diplomat-present a sweeping panorama of the arts and politics of Belle Époque Europe, a glittering world poised to be changed irrevocably by the Great War. Kessler's immersion in the new art and literature of Paris, London, and Berlin unfolds in the first part of the diaries. This refined world gives way to vivid descriptions of the horrific fighting on the Eastern and Western fronts of World War I, the intriguing private discussions among the German political and military elite about the progress of the war, as well as Kessler's account of his role as a diplomat with a secret mission in Switzerland. Profoundly modern and often prescient, Kessler was an erudite cultural impresario and catalyst who as a cofounder of the avant-garde journal Pan met and contributed articles about many of the leading artists and writers of the day. In 1903 he became director of the Grand Ducal Museum of Arts and Crafts in Weimar, determined to make it a center of aesthetic modernism together with his friend the architect Henry van de Velde, whose school of design would eventually become the Bauhaus. When a public scandal forced his resignation in 1906, Kessler turned to other projects, including collaborating with the Austrian writer Hugo von Hofmannsthal and the German composer Richard Strauss on the opera Der Rosenkavalier and the ballet The Legend of Joseph, which was performed in 1914 by the Ballets Russes in London and Paris. In 1913 he founded the Cranach-Presse in Weimar, one of the most important private presses of the twentieth century. The diaries present brilliant, sharply etched, and often richly comical descriptions of his encounters, conversations, and creative collaborations with some of the most celebrated people of his time: Otto von Bismarck, Paul von Hindenburg, Hugo von. . . |

Der erste Stein: Als homosexueller Priester gegen die Heuchelei der katholischen KircheKrzysztof CharamsaGebundene Ausgabe" Wenn jemand homosexuell ist und Gott sucht und guten Willens ist, wer bin ich, über ihn zu richten? " Diese Worte von Papst Franziskus ließen die Welt aufhorchen und viele homosexuelle Priester Hoffnung schöpfen. Doch ein grundlegender Wandel in der Haltung der katholischen Kirche gegenüber Homosexualität lässt weiter auf sich warten. Umso mehr Wirbel verursachte das Coming-out des hochrangigen polnischen Priesters Krzysztof Charamsa im Oktober 2015. Charamsa lehrte an der Gregoriana und war Mitglied der Kongregation für die Glaubenslehre. Charamsa, der mit einem Mann zusammenlebt, wählte bewusst den Zeitpunkt kurz vor Beginn der Familiensynode im Vatikan, um auf das "unmenschliche" Verhältnis der Kirche zu Homosexuellen hinzuweisen und auf die Tatsache, dass der Klerus in weiten Teilen homosexuell sei. In seinem Buch berichtet Charamsa von seinem persönlichen Werdegang und seiner Kirchenkarriere, eröffnet erschreckende Einblicke in den Alltag von kirchlicher Ausbildung und Klerus, beschreibt die Absurdität von Doktrinen und Vorschriften wie dem Zölibat. Dabei greift er immer wieder die homophoben Strukturen der katholischen Kirche an. Sein Coming-out wird für ihn zur großen Befreiung. Seine persönliche Geschichte ist die Geschichte "einer Kirche, die besessen ist vom Sex, die der Sex krank macht. " |
