Om morgenen den 21. marts 1945 letter 50 Royal Air Force-maskiner i England med kurs stik øst. De passerer Nordsøen i 15 meters højde, suser ind over Jylland og Øerne, inden første angrebsbølge når København hen ad formiddagen. Målet er Shellhuset, Gestapos frygtede hovedkvarter i Shellhuset ved Vesterport midt i København, hvor det hemmelige tyske politi fører arkiv over modstandsbevægelsen og holder ledende frihedskæmpere indespærret. Aktionen tegner til at blive en succes, da de første bomber rammer. Men undervejs er noget gået galt. En af RAF-maskinerne, et Mosquito-bombefly fra første angrebsbølge, strejfer en lysmast på baneterrænnet ved Kongens Enghave, taber højde ind over Vesterbro og styrter ned i et garageanlæg for enden af Frederiksberg Allé. Da anden og tredje bølge af bombeflyvere når København, forveksler piloterne røgen fra den brændende flyver med bombemålet, smider deres bombelast - og forvandler et beboelseskvarter og, mest tragisk, Den Franske Skole til et inferno. Historiker og museumsinspektør Christian Aagaard opruller i denne bog dramaet om en af de mest skelsættende dage i besættelseshistorien. En dag, der på tragisk vis kostede 86 skolebørn livet og brændte sig ind i hukommelsen på en hel generation af københavnere. Men også en dag af stor strategisk vigtighed, både for modstandsbevægelsens kamp og for Danmarks status som allieret land på randen af Nazitysklands sammenbrud. Bogen er båret af unikke og ikke tidligere optrykte fotos fra hændelserne.

Established in 1935, the Works Projects Administration (later Works Progress Administration) was developed to aid the out-of-work after the stock market crash of 1929 followed by the Great Depression. The Federal Writers' Project (Federal Project Number One) created jobs for unemployed librarians, clerks, researchers, editors, and historians. One of the many projects was the series titled "Inventory of the County Archives of Ohio." The survey in Allen County was startedin March 1936 and was completed in September. The original WPA volume for Allen County contained maps showing the evolution of Ohio judicial districts and flow charts which have been omitted in this volume. The information herein is verbatim except for obvious spelling errors. Included are Abbreviations, Legal Terms, Symbols, and Explanatory Notes; and Addresses and Websites. An index to inventory entries adds to the value of this work.

The Federal Writers' Project (Federal Project Number One) created jobs for unemployed librarians, clerks, researchers, editors, and historians. One of the many projects was the series titled "Inventory of the County Archives of Ohio."The Historical Records Survey was inaugurated in Adams County in May 1936, under the immediate supervision of George Reacher, and the final careful rechecking of the county records was completed by Reacher in July 1938. The wholehearted cooperation of the county officials with the project workers has meant much in the thoroughness and completeness of the result. Members of the state editorial staff of the Historical Records Survey, under the supervision of Miss Winifred Smith, State Editor, compiled, arranged, indexed, edited, and reproduced the volume for distribution among public and semipublic institutions and organizations. The research for the historical data was conducted by Dr. Edward L. Pross of the project. Dr. James H. Rodabaugh, also of the project staff, prepared the maps showing the evolution of Ohio judicial districts.This edition for Adams County contains updated and expanded information. The records of each of the county offices, and a description of each, give an insight to records that were extant as of 1938. The information herein is verbatim except for obvious spelling errors. Included are Abbreviations, Legal Terms, Symbols, and Explanatory Notes; Selected Bibliography for County History and Office Essays; List of County Officials; and Addresses and Websites.

Der international bekannte Fotograf Michael Wesely fängt in seinen Fotografien Zeit und Leben ein. In Doubleday erforscht er die archäologische Dimension der Fotografie, indem er seine eigenen Aufnahmen passgenau über historische Ansichten von Berliner Bauten des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts legt. Er schafft einen Zeitsprung von der Vergangenheit in die Gegenwart: Flaneure des 19. Jahrhunderts treffen am Alexanderplatz auf Reisende von heute, unter Rekonstruktionen werden Ruinen sichtbar und an die Stelle des Schlosses Monbijou tritt - fast wie durch Zauberhand - ein Park. MICHAEL WESELY (*1963) ist gefeierter Meister der Langzeitbelichtung. Sein präziser, dem jeweiligen Gegenstand entsprechender Einsatz dieser fotografischen Technik machte ihn weltbekannt. Seine einzigartige Ästhetik ist in zahlreichen internationalen Ausstellungen und Sammlungen vertreten. Er lebt und arbeitet in Berlin.

Under Den Kolde Krig og frem til Murens fald forsøgte tusindvis af borgere at undslippe diktaturet i DDR via Østersøen. Flere end 6000 østtyskere var – ofte på dramatisk og eventyrlig vis – villige til at krydse åbent hav for at nå friheden. Langt de fleste blev afsløret af Stasi og endte i fængsel, og op mod 200 personer mistede livet. Næsten 1000 mennesker klarede dog den farefulde færd, og for mange af dem blev danske kyster og danske søfolk deres redning. Flugten over Østersøen i perioden 1949 til 1989 er et stykke verdenshistorie med Danmark i en central rolle. Bogen bringer læseren tæt på en række skæbner, der satte deres liv på spil for en bedre tilværelse. Det er dramatiske fortællinger med forskellige udfald - fra de lykkelige til de tragiske. Udgivelsen er en storskrift-udgave til svagsynede i serien MAGNUMBØGER Lindhardt og Ringhof.

For aldrig har vi som samfund mødt større trusler; teknologisk, sikkerhedspolitisk og i forhold til vores trivsel, klima og natur. Omvendt har vi aldrig haft større muligheder. Udgivelsen er en storskrift-udgave til svagsynede i serien MAGNUMBØGER Lindhardt og Ringhof.

Bogdan Staschinski war ein begabter aber innerlich zerrissener KGB-Agent. Seine Geschichte ist - genauso wie die Geschichte seiner Opfer - zutiefst mit der Geschichte Deutschlands und der Ukraine im Kalten Krieg verbunden. Auf Befehl des KGB-Leiters in Moskau und des Vorsitzenden der Kommunistische Partei der Sowjetunion verübte Staschinski 1957 und 1959 in München Attentate auf die ukrainischen Exilanten Lew Rebet und Stepan Bandera. In seinen Erinnerungen erzählt der westukrainische KGB-Agent, warum er sich dem sowjetischen Geheimdienst anschloss, wie seine Ausbildung in Kiew und Moskau verlief, wie er den nationalistischen Untergrund in der Westukraine ausspionierte und den Attentäter des ukrainisch-sowjetischen Kultschriftstellers Jaroslaw Halan aufgespürte, warum ihn die Attentate in München auf seine Landesgenossen angeblich psychisch belasteten, wie die Liebe zu Inge Pohl seine Einstellung zu der Sowjetunion veränderte und was ihn dazu bewog, dem wohl brutalsten Geheimdienst dieser Zeit den Rücken zu kehren.

"This is the astonishing visual record of a legendary find: the wreck of Ernest Shackleton's Endurance"--

Five Alchemists. One book. A constellation of ideas.The second annual Alchemy Lecture was presented in November 2023 at York University to a sold out in-person audience and nearly one thousand live online viewers. Moderated by Dr. Christina Sharpe, the Alchemists—agile thinkers and practitioners working across a range of disciplines and geographies—convened to discuss their radical visions of the beautiful world, and the manifestos that may help to guide us there. Their treatises have been captured and luminously expanded in the pages of this book.Cherokee Nation citizen and professor Joseph M. Pierce asserts that “[f]or this decolonial future to become possible, the guiding force must no longer be capital but relations.” Informed by her practice of “curation as care,” Brazilian film curator Janaína Oliveira evokes music and movement as a means toward this relationality: “it's almost by falling that you live. . . . The beautiful world dances the stumbles. The beautiful world dances dancing.” Kenyan-British visual artist Phoebe Boswell uses the space of a virtual gallery to ask, “If we burn down the institution, what happens next? Do we trust ourselves to know?” and gestures toward the possibility of this “as yet unlived, unexperienced thing.” Professor and MacArthur fellow Saidiya Hartman asks us to consider our capacity to burn, stating that “[P]ragmatism yields a profound tolerance of the unlivable.” And Mexican-American author Cristina Rivera Garza gives us the language of the future in the subjunctive, which “lays the groundwork for the irruption. . . . The subjunctive is the smuggler who crosses the border of the future bearing unknown cargo.”Each Alchemist is intimately concerned with the shape of this cargo and our ability to bear its weight, together. Through these expansive, transformative essays, new ways of being are threaded and proposed, illuminating our path towards this possible beautiful world.

A multigenerational saga of a family and a community in Tulsa’s Greenwood district, known as “Black Wall Street,” that in one century survived the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, urban renewal, and gentrification“Ambitious . . . absorbing . . . By the end of Luckerson’s outstanding book, the idea of building something new from the ashes of what has been destroyed becomes comprehensible, even hopeful.”—Marcia Chatelain, The New York TimesWINNER OF THE SABEW BEST IN BUSINESS BOOK AWARD • A NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW AND WASHINGTON POST BEST BOOK OF THE YEARWhen Ed Goodwin moved with his parents to the Greenwood neighborhood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, his family joined a community soon to become the center of black life in the West. But just a few years later, on May 31, 1921, the teenaged Ed hid in a bathtub as a white mob descended on his neighborhood, laying waste to thirty-five blocks and murdering as many as three hundred people in one of the worst acts of racist violence in U.S. history.The Goodwins and their neighbors soon rebuilt the district into “a Mecca,” in Ed’s words, where nightlife thrived and small businesses flourished. Ed bought a newspaper to chronicle Greenwood’s resurgence and battles against white bigotry, and his son Jim, an attorney, embodied the family’s hopes for the civil rights movement. But by the 1970s urban renewal policies had nearly emptied the neighborhood. Today the newspaper remains, and Ed’s granddaughter Regina represents the neighborhood in the Oklahoma state legislature, working alongside a new generation of local activists to revive it once again. In Built from the Fire, journalist Victor Luckerson tells the true story behind a potent national symbol of success and solidarity and weaves an epic tale about a neighborhood that refused, more than once, to be erased.

A guidebook to the institutional transformation of design theory and practice by restoring the long-excluded cultures of Indigenous, Black, and People of Color communities.From the excesses of world expositions to myths of better living through technology, modernist design, in its European-based guises, has excluded and oppressed the very people whose lands and lives it reshaped. Decolonizing Design first asks how modernist design has encompassed and advanced the harmful project of colonization—then shows how design might address these harms by recentering its theory and practice in global Indigenous cultures and histories.A leading figure in the movement to decolonize design, Dori Tunstall uses hard-hitting real-life examples and case studies drawn from over fifteen years of working to transform institutions to better reflect the lived experiences of Indigenous, Black, and People of Color communities. Her book is at once enlightening, inspiring, and practical, interweaving her lived experiences with extensive research to show what decolonizing design means, how it heals, and how to practice it in our institutions today.For leaders and practitioners in design institutions and communities, Tunstall’s work demonstrates how we can transform the way we imagine and remake the world, replacing pain and repression with equity, inclusion, and diversity—in short, she shows us how to realize the infinite possibilities that decolonized design represents.

Denne bog er din genvej til slægtsforskning i napoleonstiden. Dyk ned i din egen slægtshistorie og bliv klogere på, om dine slægtninge deltog i Napoleonskrigene i begyndelsen af det 19. århundrede.Københavnerne kæmpede mod den svenske belejring i 1658. Tordenskiolds bedrifter i Store Nordiske Krig er blevet til dansk nationalmytologi. Den hurtige overgivelse den 9. april 1940 har gjort det så meget desto vigtigere med modstandshelte som Flammen og Citronen. Hver krig – sine helte.Bortset lige fra Napoleonskrigene … Modstanden mod englænderne i begyndelsen af 1800-tallet bestod af utrænede kystvogtere og landeværnsmænd, der kæmpede en brav kamp for at afvise eller overmande de langt bedre udrustede englændere. Alligevel husker vi dem ikke.Måske fordi Napoleonskrigene ikke havde mange af de store folkehelte, som kunne gå over i populærkulturen. Til gengæld bugner de danske arkiver af ægte menneskeskæbner, helt normale og almindelige mennesker af kød og blod, der kæmpede for Danmark. Det er ikke mytisk stof, det er familiehistorie. Måske endda din egen families.I bogen her fortæller historiker Rasmus Wichmann, hvor og hvordan du skal lede, når du vil finde dine forfædre i mængden af arkivalier fra napoleonstiden. Det er en bog til både nybegynderen og den erfarne slægtsforsker. Wichmann gennemgår fagudtryk, søgemaskiner og arkiver, og kapitel for kapitel går han i dybden med de arkivalier, der findes inden for hver provins, og hvad man kan bruge dem til som slægtsforsker. Med bogen i hånden kan du spare mange timer i arkiverne og hurtigt finde frem til lige netop din slægtning.

This book is the first history of commercial television in regional Australia, where diverse communities are spread across vast distances and multiple time zones. The first station, GLV Latrobe Valley, began broadcasting in December 1961. By the late 1970s, there were 35 independent commercial stations throughout regional Australia, from Cairns in the far north-east to Bunbury in the far south-west. Based on fine-grained archival research and extensive interviews, the book examines the key political, regulatory, economic, technological, industrial, and social developments which have shaped the industry over the past 60 years. Regional television is often dismissed as a mere extension of ¿ or footnote to ¿ the development of Australiäs three metropolitan commercial television networks. Michael Thurlow¿s study reveals an industry which, at its peak, was at the economic and social heart of regional communities, employing thousands of people and providing vital programming for viewers inprovincial cities and small towns across Australia.
