As narrow, nationalist views of patriotic allegiance have become widespread and are routinely invoked to justify everything from flag-waving triumphalism to xenophobic bigotry, the concept of a nonnationalist patriotism has vanished from public conversation. Taking Liberties is a study of what may be called patriotism without borders: a nonnational form of loyalty compatible with the universal principles and practices of democracy and human rights, respectful of ethnic and cultural diversity, and, overall, open-minded and inclusive.
Moving beyond a traditional study of Polish dramatic literature, Halina Filipowicz turns to the plays themselves and to archival materials, ranging from parliamentary speeches to polemical pamphlets and verse broadsides, to explore the cultural phenomenon of transgressive patriotism and its implications for society in the twenty-first century.
In addition to recovering lost or forgotten materials, the author builds an innovative conceptual and methodological framework to make sense of those materials. The result is not only a significant contribution to the debate over the meaning and practice of patriotism, but a masterful intellectual history.

For the last thirty years, Dr. Ilana Oren was honored to work with patients who trusted her with their secrets and were willing to heal the emotion of shame engulfing their lives. The experience of shame keeps one in a state of perpetual wonder: Am I good enough?
In this book, she is willing to look at the skeletons in her own closet.
Her experience as a child of survivors of the Holocaust, the last remnant of the Polish Jews, who immigrated to Israel in 1957; her grief of losing friends in the Six-Day War; and her proud experience of serving in the Israeli Defense Force.
Throughout her life, she was perplexed by the myth of the "chosen people." If we were the chosen people, what were we chosen for? Her search for meaning led her to trust her higher power, Emanuel- the Lord. Her story forms a fabric of a gripping new chapter in the history of the Jewish people.

Описание: Die Adelsforschung der zur ckliegenden Jahrzehnte hat vor allem die beeindruckende Selbstbehauptung des deutschen Adels im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert herausgearbeitet. Trotz erfolgreicher Statusverteidigung kann letztlich jedoch kein Zweifel daran bestehen, dass der langfristige Machtverlust des Adels in seiner Gesamtheit, des Adels als Stand, seit dem Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts unvermeidbar war. Seine Geschichte im Verlauf des s kularen Modernisierungsprozesses muss deshalb, trotz aller Selbstbehauptung, am Ende doch als die Geschichte eines langen, immer wieder stark gebremsten, mehrfach unterbrochenen und abgelenkten Abstiegs beschrieben werden - ein langer Abschied von Macht und Ehre. Dieser spannungsvolle Befund verlangt, das Deutungs- und Darstellungsmodell der u erst folgenreichen Geschichte einer Selbstbehauptung des Adels korrigierender Kritik zu unterziehen. Das Bem hen, eine "wirkliche Aristokratie" im Sinne Max Webers zu bilden, ist in vielen Handlungsfeldern, in denen sich Adlige und B rgerliche begegneten, erkennbar. Aber es scheint so, dass es im 19. und fr hen 20. Jahrhundert in fast allen seinen Anl ufen gescheitert ist. Es fragt sich, was die Gr nde dieses Scheiterns waren. Bedeutungsverlust und Beharrungserfolg des deutschen Adels im Wandel des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts sind in der bisherigen Forschung ganz berwiegend mit dualen, linearen Mustern der Klassenkonkurrenz erkl rt worden. Das Publikationsprojekt "Elitenwandel in der Moderne" zielt darauf, Studien zu ver ffentlichen, die Korrekturen zu dieser Perspektive erarbeitet haben. Pressestimmen: "In den letzten Jahren sind zahlreiche eindrucksvolle empirische Studien zur Adelsgeschichte entstanden, die z.T. von Heinz Reif direkt angeregt, unterst tzt und begleitet unser Bild vom 'Adel' erheblich differenziert, relativiert und korrigiert haben."
