Paperback. Condition: New. Jessen, Bubi (illustrator). Once again, through a boy's eyes, Ralph Jackson sees a winter sky darkened with geese and ducks, a kitchen stove glowing with cheerful warmth, Aunt May strolling in her flower garden, moonlight filtering through treetops to cast patches of white light on a sandy woodland road. Again he catches odors once so familiar: of a mysterious attic, of burning salt grass in late summer, of mountain streams with their fresh green smell, of dark-roast coffee and of slab bacon sizzling in the pan. He hears again a panther's scream from the darkness surrounding a campfire, the scampering of mice across the barnloft floor, the sigh of a felled pine tree changing to a crashing roar as it meets the ground, the sounds of a meal in preparation, the hum of a mosquito swarm rising from the marshes. He remembers the taste of barbecued goat, the sweet sharpness of peppermint candy, the flavor of gumdrops from the country store-where, as showcase neighbors of cigars and chewing tobacco, they acquired a faint tobacco taste. And he feels again the welcome shock of frigid spring water on a hot perspiring body, the pleasant sensation of sand between his toes, the breathtaking exhilaration of swinging on a sapling top. The joy of childhood on an East Texas ranch is the subject of this book: exciting events like the arrival of the first norther of the season, swimming with alligators, hogkilling, building tree houses, roundup, hunting and fishing, calf-riding, fording strange streams. Interspersed among these episodes are others of darker mood: a smallpox epidemic, the burning of the ranch house, wolves attacking the cattle. Jackson's characters come alive. Scenes are vivid; moods are various and enveloping. The author has told the delightful story of his boyhood from a highly personal yet universal perspective, and in doing so he has presented a picture of a region of the state previously largely neglected in Texas literature.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The University of Cologne has an unusual history: It was founded - for the second time - by the city council in 1919, more than 100 years after its predecessor institution, established in 1388, had been dissolved. Even as WWI was still being fought, the new university that had grown out of the Cologne Business School set up in 1901 was taking shape. As an institution, it combined theory, practice and social research and was formed in a spirit of progress and republicanism. But what paths did the university take after these beginnings? How did the Nazi regime, the establishment of the West German state, the 1968 student protests and the beginnings of what we now like to call globalisation affect it? Who were the people who left their mark on the institution and what were the critical decisions that were made? What was it like being a student in Cologne in different eras, and what was the relationship between the university, the city and its people? This book aims to present a rich, panoramic view of the universitys history stitched together from texts, biographies, images and objects. Together, they produce a vivid image of the continuities and transformations that shaped the University of Cologne from 1919 well into the 21st Century. This century has been a success story so far for the university: state-of-the-art teaching methods, a broad spectrum of disciplines and subjects, excellence in research and a very international outlook have made it a beacon of knowledge. The volume will be published on behalf of the Rector to mark this years 100th anniversary of the University of Colognes re-establishment. It was conceived and edited by Habbo Knoch, Ralph Jessen and Hans Peter Ullmann. All three are professors at the universitys History Department and have been leading a research project into the history of the new university since 2016. A board of experts made up of members of all of the universitys departments guided the books production. The chronicle was researched and written in close cooperation with the project coordinators by the Cologne-based history agency Reder, Roeseing & Pruefer. The University of Cologne has an unusual history: It was founded - for the second time - by the city council in 1919, more than 100 years after its predecessor institution, established in 1388, had been dissolved.
