Story
German short stories began in the late 18th century as brief, beautifully written moral fables. In the following century, style evolved toward realism in parallel with that of other European literature. From the lofty idealism of Goethe to the searing verisimilitude of Mann, German writers of all styles have left us some of the most arresting profiles of the human condition ever conceived.

Story
Jedermann ist reich und führt ein gutes, aber nicht eben gottesfürchtiges Leben. Eines Tages entscheidet Gott, dass er Rechenschaft ablegen soll, in der vermeintlichen Blüte seines Lebens. Gott schickt den Tod, um Jedermann vor das Gericht zu laden, doch dieser will nicht und bittet um Aufschub, um einen treuen Begleiter zu finden. Gibt es einen Helfer in der Not? Hofmannsthals universeller Klassiker ist jährlich Mittelpunkt der Salzburger Festspiele. Mit dabei: Ein pdf-Dokument mit Titelliste.

Story
"Auf den Spuren des Unbewussten: Meilensteine der österreichischen Literatur". Vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg und dem anschließenden Zerfall der Habsburger Monarchie kam es in Österreich zu einer bedeutenden Blütezeit in der Philosophie, Malerei, Architektur, Musik und Literatur. Diese Epoche wird auf den Zeitrahmen von ca. 1880 bis 1925 datiert und beinhaltete viele verschiedene Strömungen, wie beispielsweise den Impressionismus, die Dekadenz und die Neuromantik.

Story
Die Reitergeschichte gilt als eine der rätselvollsten poetischen Prosaarbeiten des jungen Hofmannsthal: Aufgrund des Themas (Gewalt, Sexualität, Schein und Sein), des Erzählstils (Kleists Novellen und Anekdoten nachgeschrieben), der ästhetischen Inszenierung der Erzählräume (Mailand, das rätselhafte Dorf), nicht zuletzt aber aufgrund der "Plötzlichkeitsstruktur" des Endes.

Story
Auf der Suche nach Inspiration und dem in Einklang bringen seiner Gedanken mit der eigenen Kunst und der der griechischen Antike begibt sich Hofmannsthal zur Wiege aller demokratischen Gesellschaftsordnungen – nach Griechenland. Die Reise verläuft allerdings alles andere als, sagen wir, vorauszusehen war, denn der Besuch zweier traditionell-orthodoxer Glaubenseinrichtungen erzeugt eine nicht unbedingt gewünschte nachhaltige Wirkung in Form eines transzendentalen Traumzustands.

Ausmalen ist das neue Yoga: Gönnen Sie sich eine Auszeit, indem Sie der Auswahl von Geschichten rund um das Thema "Garten und Natur" lauschen und dabei die passenden Malvorlagen kreativ gestalten. Entspannen, den Alltag und die Zeit vergessen, zur Ruhe kommen, durchatmen - schon weicht der Alltagsstress bunten Blüten und frischem Grün. Zur Entspannung beim Malen tragen die angenehmen Erzählstimmen von Nico Holonics, Katharina Thalbach und Juliane Köhler bei.

Story
"Die Frau ohne Schatten" ist eine märchenhafte Erzählung mit einer Fülle zauberisch-traumhafter Bilder und einer komplexen Handlungsstruktur, die sich vielleicht nicht sofort beim ersten Hören vollständig erschließt. Der Inhalt der Erzählung ist im Wesentlichen deckungsgleich mit dem Libretto der gleichnamigen Oper von Richard Strauss, das vor (!) der Erzählung entstand. Eine Gleichsetzung von Opernhandlung und dem Inhalt der Erzählung greift allerdings zu kurz, da Hofmannsthal zahlreiche Leerstellen des Opernlibrettos weiter ausdeutet und dadurch weitere Handlungsstränge und -wendungen eröffnet.

Das betörende Geigenspiel eines Unbekannten wühlt Claudios Seele auf. Entsetzt muss er feststellen, dass es sich dabei um den Tod handelt, der ihn nun aufsucht und ihm vorwirft seine Existenz vergeudet zu haben. Claudio erkennt verbittert, dass der Tod anscheinend mehr über das Leben weiß als er und versichert diesem, dass er sich bessern, ändern, ein guter Mensch werden will und das er jetzt endlich begriffen habe worum es im Leben geht - ob der Tod vorläufig ein Auge zudrückt? Ein amüsantes kleines Drama!

Story
Sigismund, des Königssohn Polens sitzt im Turm, gefangen wegen einer Voraussage der Sterne. Diese sprachen gegen ihn und weissagten einen Tyrannen (Abwandlung Ödipus). Daraufhin ergreift der Vater Basilius eine Vorsichtsmaßnahme, hier kein Aussetzen in einer anderen Gegend, sondern er sperrt ihn ein und produziert so aus Angst vor der Zukunft die Vorhersage; die Prophezeiung wurde selbst erfüllt, wie die vom König gewünschte Bewährungsprobe zeigte. Betäubt aus dem Turm, hingesetzt in den edelsten Prunk und erwachend aus einem Traum, sitzt Sigismund auf den Thron und soll zeigen wer er ist. Das tut er: Er missachtet seinen Vater, nimmt sich die Macht und erfüllt so das Orakel.

Der Titel der Erzaehlung erinnert an die arabische Maerchensammlung 1001 Nacht, Ort und Handlung sind jedoch zeitlos - modern. Wie schon Arthur Schnitzler feststellte spielt das Traumhafte bei dieser 1895 erschienenen Novelle eine wesentliche Rolle. In die geordnete Welt eines jungen, zurueckgezogen lebenden Kaufmannssohns bricht waehrend eines Gangs in die Stadt das Unheimliche und Geheimnisvolle mit grosser Macht ein.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Story
“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
