Skønlitteratur: mashup

Andet bind i den roste serie af rå, realistiske ungdomsbøger til læsemæssigt udfordrede børn og unge skrevet af eksperter på området.Danmarksgården er fortællinger fra blokken, fortalt med udgangspunkt i det sprog og den kultur, som de unge selv lever i hver dag i de udsatte boligområder. Igennem fortællingerne fra Danmarksgården kan de unge reflektere over deres egne valg og dilemmaer, mens de spejler sig i unge, som ligner og taler som dem selv eller nogen, de kender. Danmarksgården er skrevet i et simpelt og letforståeligt sprog med afsæt i det sproglige univers, som de unge selv benytter i deres hverdag i form af slang og ”ghettodansk”. Bogen er særligt henvendt til drenge, som mangler relevant litteratur til at afspejle deres livsverden, hvorfor de ofte forlader skolen med dårlige læsekundskaber sammenlignet med deres jævnaldrende. Historierne i Danmarksgården er rå og bedst egnet til udskolingen eller de første år af gymnasiet. Ishockey har altid været Niklas’ kald, men da en knæskade sender ham på bænken, bliver han rastløs. Han savner holdet og suset. Han gider ikke babysitte sine små søstre, og skolen har han givet op på. Han hænger ud med Kerem og de andre shababs fra Danmarksgården, men en dag er der pludselig noget nyt, der byder sig til: et nyt hold.Fra fængslet har Niklas’ far trukket i nogle tråde, og Niklas tilbydes en plads i et supporter-fællesskab bundet sammen af fodbold, stoffer og vold.Niklas er splittet: Er han en af Gårdens shabs eller en af farens rocker-supportere?Om DANMARKSGÅRDEN 1: ”En velskrevet, letlæselig, rå, men realistisk fortælling om at være ung i et ikke altid gunstigt miljø. En super vigtig bog, som både kan læses af læsesvage unge, men også af unge, der har brug for at kunne spejle sig i Daniel og Ardits verden og reflektere over deres dilemmaer og valg.” – Dansk Bibliotekscenter

’Enten-eller’ er ikke blot en klassiker inden for eksistentialistisk filosofi, men også et litterært værk man ikke kan komme udenom. Gennem sit smukke, finurlige og til tider drillende sprog peger Søren Kierkegaard på nogle helt essentielle aspekter af den menneskelige eksistens. Det er et værk, der både rummer humor og utrolig filosofisk tyngde. Eller som en af guldalderens største kulturpersonligheder, Johan Ludvig Heiberg’ formulerede det, så slog ’Enten-eller’ ned i ham som: "'Tankelyn, der pludselig opklare hele Sphærer af Tilværelsen'". ’Enten-eller’ er både et filosofisk og litterært mesterværk, og har siden sin udgivelse i 1843 været ét af de mest oversatte danske værker. "[...]'Enten-Eller' har fået klassikerstatus, fordi værket ikke blot var epokegørende ved sin fremkomst, men også siden har fået enorm betydning for blandt andet eksistentialismens udformning. Selvom bogen bestemt har litterære og filosofiske forbilleder hos blandt andre Heiberg, Sibbern og Poul Martin Møller – for nu blot at nævne nogle af de danske inspiratorer – så markerer bogen et nybrud, der gør det rimeligt at tale om tiden før og tiden efter 'Enten-Eller'." - Joakim Garff i Kristeligt Dagblad Gateway /title /head body center h1 502 Bad Gateway /h1 /center /body /htmlDen danske teolog og filosof Søren Aabye Kierkegaard (1813-1855) regnes som eksistentialismens grundlægger og den største danske filosof nogensinde. "Enten-eller", "Begrebet angst" og "Frygt og bæven" er nogle af de mest indflydelsesrige værker, som Danmark har bidraget med til den internationale filosofihistorie.

Forfatter Jens Blendstrup og fotograf Lars Gundersen har rejst land og rige tyndt og taget billeder af havelåger og digtet om, hvem der mon bor bag dem.Mød den ganske almindelige familie, damen der samlede på diamanter, guds gave til menneskeheden, hende, der ville have ejet millioner, hvis tårer havde været guld, den listige hanrej, Keramikbitten, kørerlærer Ibsen og mange mange flere.

Søren Kierkegaards "Forførerens dagbog" er oprindeligt en del af værket "Enten – Eller" fra 1843, hvor den indgår som afslutning på bogens første del. Den unge, narcissistiske Johannes, skriver i en romanlignende dagbogs- og brevform om mødet med den skønne Cordelia, som han ved hjælp af intellekt og intriger gør til genstand for sin forførelseskunst. "Forførerens dagbog" bliver brugt som eksempel på den æstetiske livspraksis, som ifølge Kierkegaard står i modsætning til det etiske valg, og forskellen mellem æstetik og etik bliver på et højere plan gjort til forskellen på godt og ondt.Den danske teolog og filosof Søren Kierkegaard (1813-1855) er kendt verden over som ophavsmand til eksistentialismen og regnes som en af de vigtigste figurer i den danske guldalder. Han var fra 1840-41 forlovet med den ni år yngre Regine Olsen, og hun kom til at spille en stor rolle i og for det senere forfatterskab, som påbegyndtes i 1843 med "Enten – Eller". Kierkegaard skrev adskillige af sine værker under pseudonym – ikke fordi han ønskede at være anonym, men for på den måde at kunne lade forfatterskabets teologiske, filosofiske og psykologiske temaer spille dialektisk op mod hinanden.

Medrivende ny bog af forfatteren til "Tjenerindens fortælling" indeholder femten fortællinger, som alle dykker helt ned i familiedynamik, ægteskab, savn og hukommelse og – ikke mindst – hvad det betyder at leve et helt liv sammen.Centralt i syv af historierne følges Nell og Tig gennem deres årtier lange ægteskab, både de store øjeblikke og de små, som tilsammen danner et helt liv med usædvanlig kærlighed – og det der kommer bagefter.Den canadiske forfatter Margaret Atwood er en af verdens bedst sælgende forfattere, og med HBO-serien ’The Handmaid's Tale’ fra 2017 fik hendes forfatterskab fornyet international opmærksomhed. Hun er en fabelagtig fortæller og hendes store politiske og miljømæssige engagement skinner tydeligt igennem i hendes bøger.

Da Aldous Huxley kom til Sønderborg er en samling af erindringer,mundtlige fortællinger, fortalt af dem, der var aktive i Sønderborgshippiemiljø i halvfjerdserne, og hvis erfaringer fra den periode harformet og mærket dem for livet. Det er en fortælling om makrohistoriens nedslag i et mikromiljø, hvoren række af tidens store politiske og kulturelle bevægelser gennemsyrerdet lokale, men hvor det lokale også virker tilbage på eller bliver vævetsammen med en større global historie. Det er historier om møder medRote Armee Fraktion, det indoktrinerende Tvind­dynasti, venskaberpå tværs af alder og klasse, der afprøver stoffernes såvel som detåndeliges indgang til bevidsthedsudvidelse. En antipolitisk væren iverden, hvor flugten fra ondskaben også manifesterer sig i en løbeturhele vejen fra Danmark til Israel. Bogens grundstruktur er bygget op over en fraværende figur: Allebogens bidrag relaterer direkte eller indirekte til historien om HansTroj. Hans Troj er en søgende, sensibel og intelligent gymnasieelev,da han i starten af halvfjerdserne finder ud af, at hans far, som hanhar et meget konfliktfyldt forhold til, har mødt Aldous Huxley iforbindelse med et besøg i Sønderborg. Faderen interesserer sig for detokkulte og har formodentlig prøvet LSD. Hans Troj, der i forvejenhar et skrøbeligt sind, vil ikke stå tilbage for faderen og begynderat eksperimentere med LSD og andre bevidsthedsudvidende stoffertrods advarsler fra vennerne. Eksperimenterne udløser en psykose,der i årene efter sender ham ind og ud af det psykiatriske hospital iAugustenborg. En anden af bogens fortællere er den sidste, der ser ham,da Hans Troj i 1982 truer med at slå ham ihjel med en kniv. I midtenaf firserne forsvinder Hans Troj ud af historien og er formodentligdød i dag. Hans bidrag til bogen er en psykedelisk tegneserie på 16sider fra 1972 samt syv breve.

Institut for Venterettigheder blev grundlagt, da René Magritte en eftermiddag ventede på en sporvogn, der aldrig kom. Romanens fortæller, ETC, er arkivar på instituttet og beretter ved hjælp af indkomne, anonyme dokumenter om menneskets forsøg på at finde ro i verden og hvile for øjet.Klaūs Rød Frederiksen (f. 1965) debuterede som forfatter med den litterært eksperimenterende roman Henrik, Omkuld (2016) og senest er udkommet romanen En suite (2021); Magritteruten er hans til dato mest tilgængelige – men stadig eksperimenterende – tekst, udsprunget af bl.a. forfatterens fascination af og kærlighed til fotografiet som medie og René Magritte som poet.Måske er Margritteruten en erkendelsesfilosofisk kortprosa-essay-arkivroman om skønhed.

What am I going to say now? I'm going to ask myself, I'm going to ask questions: that's a good stop-gap. (Not that I'm in any danger of stopping. Then why all this fuss?) That's right, questions: I know millions, I must know millions.Samuel Beckett, The UnnamableThere are so many people asking questions¿¿¿¿¿everywhere.There is the bloody blindman, and the angry one, and thedisheartened one,and the wretch, the thorn tree,the bandit with envy on his back.Pablo Neruda, Ode to Federic Garcia Lorca (Residence on Earth)I was questioned several times immediately after my arrest. But they were all formal examinations, as to my identity and so forth. At the first of these, which took place at the police station, nobody seemed to have much interest in the case. However, when I was brought before the examining magistrate a week later, I noticed that he eyed me with distinct curiosity.Albert Camus, The StrangerRob Kovitz's eagerly awaited supercut extravaganza, Frequently Asked Questions, is an epistemological-ontological-metaphysical-montage-appropriation-detective-spy-mystery-thriller-courtroom procedure caper, in which every text selection includes the word question, but much funnier than that sounds (though not any shorter).

Propelled by a multitude of idiosyncratic voices, the stories in Kevin Moffett's Further Interpretations of Real-Life Events are tragic in their conception and comic in their execution. Moffett casts light on characters in transitional states, stalled and puzzled. In "In the Pines," a Civil War reenactor visits an elderly woman recently relocated to a retirement home. In "Border to Border," an immigrant working at an amusement park faces a disconcerting choice when he loses one of his dental crowns. In "First Marriage," a honeymooning couple is stalled in Arizona by the stink of dead animal in their rental car. Even as they bumble and disappoint their way through these stories, these characters elicit from us a sympathy?even a self-identification?that is something much stronger than pity. The result is an unsettling and unforgettable collection. Written with penetrating insight into our motivations and fears, Further Interpretations of Real-Life Events is a wise, funny, and haunting book that signals the emergence of a trailblazing talent.

From the bestselling author of The Porpoise come eight mesmerising stories exploring what, ultimately, makes us human.Mark Haddon weaves ancient fables into fresh and unexpected forms, and forges new legends to sit alongside them. The myth of the Minotaur in his labyrinth is turned into a wrenching parable of maternal love - and of the monstrosities of patriarchy. The lover of a goddess, Tithonus, is gifted eternal life but without eternal youth. Actaeon, changed into a stag after glimpsing the naked Diana and torn to pieces by his hunting dogs, becomes a visceral metaphor about how humans use and misuse animals.From genetic engineering to the eternal complications of family, Haddon showcases masterfully how we are subject to the same elemental forces that obsessed the Greeks. Whether describing Laika the Soviet space dog on her fateful orbit, or St Anthony wrestling with loneliness in the desert, his astonishing powers of observation are at their height when illuminating the thin line between human and animal.
