Ergebnis für "Das Märchen" in Politik & Sozialwissenschaften

Wir leben in Deutschland in der scheinbar besten aller Welten, doch schon bald werden wir feststellen, dass wir nicht das reiche Land sind, das uns Medien und Politik glauben machen wollen. Denn der Boom der hiesigen Wirtschaft ist nicht unser Verdienst, sondern in erster Linie eine Folge der tiefen Zinsen, des schwachen Euro und des Verschuldungsexzesses im Rest der Welt. Um unseren Wohlstand zu sichern, müssten die regierenden Politiker den aktuellen Aufschwung nutzen, um in Infrastruktur, Bildung und Digitalisierung und somit in die Zukunft des Landes zu investieren.

This is a manifesto for the 99 percent. Unaffordable housing, poverty wages, inadequate healthcare, border policing, climate change - these are not what you ordinarily hear feminists talking about. But aren't they the biggest issues for the vast majority of women around the globe? This manifesto makes a simple but powerful case: feminism shouldn't start, or stop, with the drive to have women represented at the top of their professions. It must focus on those at the bottom and fight for the world they deserve. Feminism must be anti-capitalist, eco-socialist, and anti-racist.

Wie in den Schriften "Vom Menschenrätsel" und "Von Seelenrätseln" unternimmt Rudolf Steiner auch in der Schrift "Goethes Geistesart" den Versuch, die von ihm entwickelte anthroposophische Geisteswissenschaft in ein Verhältnis zu den bestehenden Wissenschaften zu setzen, in diesem Fall besonders mit den Geisteswissenschaften und der Literaturwissenschaft. Dabei entwickelt er, in der Auseinandersetzung mit Goethe, die Grundzüge einer anthroposophisch orientierten Methode des verstehenden Umgangs mit literarischen Texten, gewissermaßen also eine Art geisteswissenschaftlicher Hermeneutik.

Most of us grew up having always known when to touch wood or cross our fingers, and what happens when a princess kisses a frog or a boy pulls a sword from a stone, yet sadly some of these things are beginning to be forgotten. Legends, myths, and fairy tales: Our world is made up of the stories we told ourselves about where we came from and how we got here. It is the same on Discworld, except that beings, which on Earth are creatures of the imagination - like vampires, trolls, witches and, possibly, gods - are real, alive and, in some cases kicking, on the Disc.

Joan Crawford's remarkable forty-five-year motion picture career is one of the industry's longest. Signing her first contract in 1925, she was crowned an MGM star four years later and by the mid-1930s was the most popular actress in America. In the early 1940s, Crawford's risky decision to move to Warner Bros. was rewarded with an Oscar for Mildred Pierce. This triumph launched a series of film noir classics. She teamed with rival Bette Davis in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?, proving that Crawford, whose career had begun by defining big-screen glamor, had matured into a dramatic actress.

Grant provided the impetus for an escape to City Point, Virginia, a journey from which Abraham Lincoln drew much more than he ever expected.
