Der Mensch besteht zu ca. 70 % aus Wasser, unser Gehirn sogar zu über 90 %. Ist das nur zufällig so oder ist Wasser mehr als nur die Zusammensetzung von Molekülen, mit denen wir den Durst unseres Körpers stillen? Was hat es mit den über 40 Anomalien des Wassers auf sich? Was ist der wirkliche Grund, warum Wasser als unser Lebenselement bezeichnet wird? Welche Geheimnisse hält Wasser wirklich für uns verborgen? Oder sind es gar keine Geheimnisse, ist alles viel offenbarer, viel näher und viel einfacher und wir sehen es nur noch nicht? Burkhard Koller, Graveurmeister und Wasserforscher, hat sich vor über 20 Jahren diese Fragen gestellt und schaut sich das Wasser seitdem aus neuen Blickwinkeln an. Unkonventionell, unvoreingenommen und neugierig. Als Handwerksmeister hat er eine sehr pragmatische und einfache Herangehensweise. Seine Forschungsergebnisse und die teils verblüffenden Erkenntnisse aus über 20 Jahren Wasserforschung hat er in diesem informativen wie spannenden Buch niedergeschrieben. Es ist eine Liebeserklärung an das Wasser und an das Leben selbst. Nach der Lektüre dieses Buches wird das Wasser in Ihrem Leben einen neuen Stellenwert haben, als Freund, als Mentor und Begleiter in vielen Lebenssituationen.Dieses Buch ist ein Praxisbuch, mit dem Sie die Kraft des Wassers direkt im Leben anwenden und erfahren können

Hvedekorn 3, 2023, indledes med nye digte af Caspar Eric som et akut flyvebladstillæg til hans pågående inderlige og yderlige, yderst fortjent bestsellende digtsamling Nye balancer fra foråret. Caspar Eric er stadig en ung digter, men tid og generationerne løber nådesløst hurtigt i Hvedekorn, hele 19 år yngre er Manon Amalie Bøgeskov, som debuterede heftigt talentfuld i nr. 2, 2023, og i sit bidrag til det nye nummer ikke er til at standse, hun stormer frem med den intrikat vildskab. Nummeret bydes desuden på gode, suverænt gearede gensyn med savnede, yngre veteraner som Sarah Elise Bruun, Ingrid Nymo, Sophia Handler og Anders Gamst Skov (alle, undtagen tidligt debuterede Sarah, stjerner i Hvede-antologien Flasher mine tranebærmund, 2018, som Caspar også stjernede i – at bidrage til Hvedekorn er at blive medlem af en evig poetisk konspiration).Meget andet skønt af nye og erfarne folk, og fx bare også Anne-Louise Bosmans’ klare, både mørke og lyse adskillelsesdigte.Illustrationerne er farvestærke, kraftfuldt grove figurationer af oversete Hilda Wanscher (/1887-1973).Bogstaveligheden lever, med vinger på sin haltende fod!

Ce livre n¿est pas un livre sur l¿antisémitisme comme les autres. Il ne s¿agit pas d¿un pur essai historique mais d¿un essai documenté et illustré, s¿appuyant sur de nombreux textes du domaine public : aussi bien des textes de justes comme Émile Zola (« J¿accuse » est ici dans son intégralité) ou Anatole France, que des textes antisémites comme ceux de Barrès ou de Maurras. Ces textes sont commentés et reliés par Yoann Laurent-Rouault, qui, en sa qualité de maître diplômé des Beaux-Arts de Rennes, a également illustré ces textes. L¿affaire Dreyfus occupe le coeur de cet ouvrage mais celui-ci, au fil des pages, remonte plus loin et étend aussi sa portée jusqüà la Seconde Guerre mondiale et même jusqüà nos jours. C¿est dans le fonds littéraire international Memoria Books que ces textes compilés, illustrés et reliés par un profond fil conducteur trouvent logiquement leur place. L¿auteur, Yoann Laurent-Rouault, braque le projecteur sur une vérité nue : celle de l¿antisémitisme et de l¿antijudaïsme français. Au travers de l¿affaire Dreyfus et du procès Zola, des guerres mondiales et des remous de la Ve République, et jusqüà nos jours, c¿est le plaidoyer des justes qui est ici mis à l¿honneur. La documentation associée au texte fait état de vérités «¿françaises¿» que beaucoup préféreraient continuer d¿ignorer. Comme la liste des camps d¿internement sous Vichy qui s¿étire sur 6 pages, la liste « Otto » et la liste « Bernhard » ou encore la compromission de la presse et de l¿édition au travers de grands noms de la littérature et de l¿intelligentsia française. Il nous interroge également sur le phénomène du révisionnisme, que dans notre pays on ne saurait voir en trois couleurs, au nom du « politiquement correct » et d¿une certaine idée de la France, comme pour servir un patriotisme cocardier, qui de tout temps a été générateur de crises et de conflits armés. Ici est faite la démonstration que la culture antisémite française qui s¿étire sur plusieurs siècles donnera naissance à un courant littéraire moderne et à une pensée raciste et ségrégationniste qui fut un temps homologuée par l¿académie et par l¿État. « L¿antisémitisme, dans les pays où il a une réelle importance, n¿est jamais que l¿arme d¿un parti politique ou le résultat d¿une situation économique grave, écrivait Zola. La phrase est pertinente, et ce que je constate aujourd¿hui, c¿est que pour une certaine France, si «¿le Juif¿» est coupable de tout, il est avant tout coupable d¿être juif.¿»
