German English

In the throes of the Second World War, young Meissner, a college student with dreams of becoming a scientist, is drafted into the German army and sent to the Eastern Front. But soon his regiment collapses in the face of the onslaught of the Red Army, hell-bent on revenge in its race to Berlin. Many decades later, now an old man reckoning with his past, Meissner pens a letter to his grandson explaining his actions, his guilt as a Nazi participator, and the difficulty of life after war.

In 1943 the RAF began a bombing campaign against Germany, the likes of which had never before been seen. Over the next 12 months, tens of thousands of aircrews flew across the North Sea to drop their bombs on German cities. They were opposed not only by the full force of the Luftwaffe but by a nightmare of flak, treacherously icy conditions and constant mechanical malfunction. Most of these crews never finished their tour of operations but were either shot down and killed or taken prisoner by an increasingly hostile enemy.

Written as part of a US Army program instigated after World War II by Colonel S. L. A. Marshall of the Army Historical Division, who was convinced that no record of the war could be complete without the input of the German commanding officers and their main staff officers, these reports offer an invaluable record of German operations for historians and general audiences.

Operating out of a secluded office deep in the hills of his home state of West Virginia, the prolific Barker single-handedly kept public interest focused on UFOs during it leanest years, and introduced many themes still discussed and investigated by today’s paranormal and conspiracy researchers:the “interdimensional” theory of UFOs; the shapeshifting nature of creature entities such as Mothman, the Flatwoods Monster, and Bigfoot; the cryptic terror of the Men in Black; and the mystery of the Philadelphia Experiment.

However, within these stories the language of these great talents express themselves in dazzling prose and searching narratives. And the characters? Clearly the works of genius.

Für jedes geschriebene Wort ein Stück Ermächtigung, ein Stück Selbst. Precious Chiebonam Nnebedum beweist: Sie ist die Kraft, mit der zu rechnen ist. Wer sind wir, wenn uns die Worte fehlen? Wer, wenn wir sie kaum aufhalten können? Wenn wir in verschiedenen Sprachen leben, uns nicht nur aus ihnen bedienen wollen, sondern sie für uns selbst finden. Uns durch Sprache ermächtigen und gleichzeitig durch sie ermächtigt werden. Precious Chiebonam Nnebedums Gedichte sind eindringlich, schimmernd.

The On the Tip of Your Tongue series identifies words in 11 key categories, so you can learn to be an effective speaker in that language. This series is productive, because you can approach a language from both sides: the language you wish to learn, with the words in that language first, followed by your own language with each word spoken twice. In many ways students find this approach less stressful because they can hear the new language and think about the proper word in their own language; using both approaches in tandem works best for most people.
