Kathrin u. Fabian Heinze, Gemeinde auf dem Weg, Berlin (13.07.25, 10:00)

Der Sinn des Lebens ist mit begrenzter Zeit in unterschiedlichen Lebensphasen verknüpft. Anders gesagt: Alles hat einen Anfang und ein Ende. Manche Ziele Gottes können in kurzer Zeit erreicht werden, während andere ein ganzes Leben erfordern. Du wirst nicht immer das tun können, was du heute tust, zumindest nicht in gleichem Umfang. Die Bibel lehrt: „Wie deine Tage, so deine Kraft” (5.Mo 33,25 ELB). Aus diesem Grund wechseln einige der weltbesten Sportler in den Trainerberuf. Drei wichtige Punkte: (1) Verstehe deine aktuelle Zeit und nutze sie gut. (2) Wenn eine Zeit zu Ende geht, wechsele wohlwollend in die nächste. (3) Lerne, die Zeit, in der du dich gerade befindest, zu genießen. Elia übergab seinen Mantel der Kraft an Elisa, aber nirgends lesen wir, dass Elisa ihn auch weitergab. Aber als Paulus seinen Mantel an Timotheus übergab, war das noch nicht alles. Paulus sagte zu ihm: „Was du vor vielen Zeugen von mir gehört hast, das vertraue zuverlässigen Menschen an, die andere lehren” (s. 2.Tim 2,2 EÜ). Anstatt zu jammern, dass seine Zeit zu Ende ging, freute sich Paulus in dem Wissen, dass Gott ihm geholfen hatte, seinen Auftrag zu erfüllen. „Ich habe den guten Kampf gekämpft, ich habe den Lauf vollendet, ich habe Glauben gehalten; hinfort liegt für mich bereit die Krone” (2.Tim 4,7-8 LU). Die Wahrheit ist, dass Gott uns nur für die Lebensphase, in der wir uns befinden, Gnade gewährt. Wenn ein Abschnitt zu Ende geht, wird der Segen aufgehoben. Sei aufmerksam und gehe weiter, wenn es Zeit ist!

Frances Wilson has written biographies of Dorothy Wordsworth, Thomas De Quincey, D.H. Lawrence, and, most recently, Muriel Spark. I thought Electric Spark was excellent. In my review, I wrote: “Wilson has done far more than string the facts together. She has created a strange and vivid portrait of one of the most curious of twentieth century novelists.” In this interview, we covered questions like why Thomas De Quincey is more widely read, why D.H. Lawrence's best books aren't his novels, Frances's conversion to spookiness, what she thinks about a whole range of modern biographers, literature and parasocial relationships, Elizabeth Bowen, George Meredith, and plenty about Muriel Spark.Here are two brief extracts. There is a full transcript below.Henry: De Quincey and Lawrence were the people you wrote about before Muriel Spark, and even though they seem like three very different people, but in their own way, they're all a little bit mad, aren't they?Frances: Yes, that is, I think, something that they have in common. It's something that I'm drawn to. I like writing about difficult people. I don't think I could write about anyone who wasn't difficult. I like difficult people in general. I like the fact that they pose a puzzle and they're hard to crack, and that their difficulty is laid out in their work and as a code. I like tackling really, really stubborn personalities as well. Yes, they were all a bit mad. The madness was what fuelled their journeys without doubt.Henry: This must make it very hard as a biographer. Is there always a code to be cracked, or are you sometimes dealing with someone who is slippery and protean and uncrackable?And.Henry: People listening will be able to tell that Spark is a very spooky person in several different ways. She had what I suppose we would call spiritual beliefs to do with ghosts and other sorts of things. You had a sort of conversion of your own while writing this book, didn't you?Frances: Yes, I did. [laughs] Every time I write a biography, I become very, very, very immersed in who I'm writing about. I learned this from Richard Holmes, who I see as a method biographer. He Footsteps his subjects. He becomes his subjects. I think I recognized when I first read Holmes's Coleridge, when I was a student, that this was how I also wanted to live. I wanted to live inside the minds of the people that I wrote about, because it was very preferable to live inside my own mind. Why not live inside the mind of someone really, really exciting, one with genius?What I felt with Spark wasn't so much that I was immersed by-- I wasn't immersed by her. I felt actually possessed by her. I think this is the Spark effect. I think a lot of her friends felt like this. I think that her lovers possibly felt like this. There is an extraordinary force to her character, which absolutely lives on, even though she's dead, but only recently dead. The conversion I felt, I think, was that I have always been a very enlightenment thinker, very rational, very scientific, very Freudian in my approach to-- I will acknowledge the unconscious but no more.By the time I finished with Spark, I'm pure woo-woo now.TranscriptHenry: Today, I am talking to Frances Wilson. Frances is a biographer. Her latest book, Electric Spark, is a biography of the novelist Muriel Spark, but she has also written about Dorothy Wordsworth, Thomas De Quincey, DH Lawrence and others. Frances, welcome.Frances Wilson: Thank you so much for having me on.Henry: Why don't more people read Thomas De Quincey's work?Frances: [laughs] Oh, God. We're going right into the deep end.[laughter]Frances: I think because there's too much of it. When I chose to write about Thomas De Quincey, I just followed one thread in his writing because Thomas De Quincey was an addict. One of the things he was addicted to was writing. He wrote far, far, far too much. He was a professional hack. He was a transcendental hack, if you like, because all of his writing he did while on opium, which made the sentences too long and too high and very, very hard to read.When I wrote about him, I just followed his interest in murder. He was fascinated by murder as a fine art. The title of one of his best essays is On Murder as One of the Fine Arts. I was also interested in his relationship with Wordsworth. I twinned those together, which meant cutting out about 97% of the rest of his work. I think people do read his Confessions of an English Opium-Eater. I think that's a cult text. It was the memoir, if you want to call it a memoir, that kick-started the whole pharmaceutical memoir business on drugs.It was also the first addict's memoir and the first recovery memoir, and I'd say also the first misery memoir. He's very much at the root of English literary culture. We're all De Quincey-an without knowing it, is my argument.Henry: Oh, no, I fully agree. That's what surprises me, that they don't read him more often.Frances: I know it's a shame, isn't it? Of all the Romantic Circle, he's the one who's the most exciting to read. Also, Lamb is wonderfully exciting to read as well, but Lamb's a tiny little bit more grounded than De Quincey, who was literally not grounded. He's floating in an opium haze above you.[laughter]Henry: What I liked about your book was the way you emphasized the book addiction, not just the opium addiction. It is shocking the way he piled up chests full of books and notebooks, and couldn't get into the room because there were too many books in there. He was [crosstalk].Frances: Yes. He had this in common with Muriel Spark. He was a hoarder, but in a much more chaotic way than Spark, because, as you say, he piled up rooms with papers and books until he couldn't get into the room, and so just rented another room. He was someone who had no money at all. The no money he had went on paying rent for rooms, storing what we would be giving to Oxfam, or putting in the recycling bin. Then he'd forget that he was paying rent on all these rooms filled with his mountains of paper. The man was chaos.Henry: What is D.H. Lawrence's best book?Frances: Oh, my argument about Lawrence is that we've gone very badly wrong in our reading of him, in seeing him primarily as a novelist and only secondarily as an essayist and critic and short story writer, and poet. This is because of F.R. Leavis writing that celebration of him called D.H. Lawrence: Novelist, because novels are not the best of Lawrence. I think the best of his novels is absolutely, without doubt, Sons and Lovers. I think we should put the novels in the margins and put in the centre, the poems, travel writing.Absolutely at the centre of the centre should be his studies in classic American literature. His criticism was- We still haven't come to terms with it. It was so good. We haven't heard all of Lawrence's various voices yet. When Lawrence was writing, contemporaries didn't think of Lawrence as a novelist at all. It was anyone's guess what he was going to come out with next. Sometimes it was a novel [laughs] and it was usually a rant about-- sometimes it was a prophecy. Posterity has not treated Lawrence well in any way, but I think where we've been most savage to him is in marginalizing his best writing.Henry: The short fiction is truly extraordinary.Frances: Isn't it?Henry: I always thought Lawrence was someone I didn't want to read, and then I read the short fiction, and I was just obsessed.Frances: It's because in the short fiction, he doesn't have time to go wrong. I think brevity was his perfect length. Give him too much space, and you know he's going to get on his soapbox and start ranting, start mansplaining. He was a terrible mansplainer. Mansplaining his versions of what had gone wrong in the world. It is like a drunk at the end of a too-long dinner party, and you really want to just bundle him out. Give him only a tiny bit of space, and he comes out with the perfection that is his writing.Henry: De Quincey and Lawrence were the people you wrote about before Muriel Spark, and even though they seem like three very different people, but in their own way, they're all a little bit mad, aren't they?Frances: Yes, that is, I think, something that they have in common. It's something that I'm drawn to. I like writing about difficult people. I don't think I could write about anyone who wasn't difficult. I like difficult people in general. I like the fact that they pose a puzzle and they're hard to crack, and that their difficulty is laid out in their work and as a code. I like tackling really, really stubborn personalities as well. Yes, they were all a bit mad. The madness was what fuelled their journeys without doubt.Henry: This must make it very hard as a biographer. Is there always a code to be cracked, or are you sometimes dealing with someone who is slippery and protean and uncrackable?Frances: I think that the way I approach biography is that there is a code to crack, but I'm not necessarily concerned with whether I crack it or not. I think it's just recognizing that there's a hell of a lot going on in the writing and that, in certain cases and not in every case at all, the best way of exploring the psyche of the writer and the complexity of the life is through the writing, which is a argument for psycho biography, which isn't something I necessarily would argue for, because it can be very, very crude.I think with the writers I choose, there is no option. Muriel Spark argued for this as well. She said in her own work as a biographer, which was really very, very strong. She was a biographer before she became a novelist. She thought hard about biography and absolutely in advance of anyone else who thought about biography, she said, "Of course, the only way we can approach the minds of writers is through their work, and the writer's life is encoded in the concerns of their work."When I was writing about Muriel Spark, I followed, as much as I could, to the letter, her own theories of biography, believing that that was part of the code that she left. She said very, very strong and very definitive things about what biography was about and how to write a biography. I tried to follow those rules.Henry: Can we play a little game where I say the names of some biographers and you tell me what you think of them?Frances: Oh my goodness. Okay.Henry: We're not trying to get you into trouble. We just want some quick opinions. A.N. Wilson.Frances: I think he's wonderful as a biographer. I think he's unzipped and he's enthusiastic and he's unpredictable and he's often off the rails. I think his Goethe biography-- Have you read the Goethe biography?Henry: Yes, I thought that was great.Frances: It's just great, isn't it? It's so exciting. I like the way that when he writes about someone, it's almost as if he's memorized the whole of their work.Henry: Yes.Frances: You don't imagine him sitting at a desk piled with books and having to score through his marginalia. It sits in his head, and he just pours it down on a page. I'm always excited by an A.N. Wilson biography. He is one of the few biographers who I would read regardless of who the subject was.Henry: Yes.Frances: I just want to read him.Henry: He does have good range.Frances: He absolutely does have good range.Henry: Selina Hastings.Frances: I was thinking about Selina Hastings this morning, funnily enough, because I had been talking to people over the weekend about her Sybil Bedford biography and why that hadn't lifted. She wrote a very excitingly good life of Nancy Mitford and then a very unexcitingly not good life of Sybil Bedford. I was interested in why the Sybil Bedford simply hadn't worked. I met people this weekend who were saying the same thing, that she was a very good biographer who had just failed [laughs] to give us anything about Sybil Bedford.I think what went wrong in that biography was that she just could not give us her opinions. It's as if she just withdrew from her subject as if she was writing a Wikipedia entry. There were no opinions at all. What the friends I was talking to said was that she just fell out with her subject during the book. That's what happened. She stopped being interested in her. She fell out with her and therefore couldn't be bothered. That's what went wrong.Henry: Interesting. I think her Evelyn Waugh biography is superb.Frances: Yes, I absolutely agree. She was on fire until this last one.Henry: That's one of the best books on Waugh, I think.Frances: Yes.Henry: Absolutely magical.Frances: I also remember, it's a very rare thing, of reading a review of it by Hilary Mantel saying that she had not read a biography that had been as good, ever, as Selina Hastings' on Evelyn Waugh. My goodness, that's high praise, isn't it?Henry: Yes, it is. It is. I'm always trying to push that book on people. Richard Holmes.Frances: He's my favourite. He's the reason that I'm a biographer at all. I think his Coleridge, especially the first volume of the two-volume Coleridge, is one of the great books. It left me breathless when I read it. It was devastating. I also think that his Johnson and Savage book is one of the great books. I love Footsteps as well, his account of the books he didn't write in Footsteps. I think he has a strange magic. When Muriel Spark talked about certain writers and critics having a sixth literary sense, which meant that they tuned into language and thought in a way that the rest of us don't, I think that Richard Holmes does have that. I think he absolutely has it in relation to Coleridge. I'm longing for his Tennyson to come out.Henry: Oh, I know. I know.Frances: Oh, I just can't wait. I'm holding off on reading Tennyson until I've got Holmes to help me read him. Yes, he is quite extraordinary.Henry: I would have given my finger to write the Johnson and Savage book.Frances: Yes, I know. I agree. How often do you return to it?Henry: Oh, all the time. All the time.Frances: Me too.Henry: Michael Holroyd.Frances: Oh, that's interesting, Michael Holroyd, because I think he's one of the great unreads. I think he's in this strange position of being known as a greatest living biographer, but nobody's read him on Augustus John. [laughs] I haven't read his biographies cover to cover because they're too long and it's not in my subject area, but I do look in them, and they're novelistic in their wit and complexity. His sentences are very, very, very entertaining, and there's a lot of freight in each paragraph. I hope that he keeps selling.I love his essays as well, and also, I think that he has been a wonderful ambassador for biography. He's very, very supportive of younger biographers, which not every biographer is, but I know he's been very supportive of younger biographers and is incredibly approachable.Henry: Let's do a few Muriel Spark questions. Why was the Book of Job so important to Muriel Spark?Frances: I think she liked it because it was rogue, because it was the only book of the Bible that wasn't based on any evidence, it wasn't based on any truth. It was a fictional book, and she liked fiction sitting in the middle of fact. That was one of her main things, as all Spark lovers know. She liked the fact that there was this work of pure imagination and extraordinarily powerful imagination sitting in the middle of the Old Testament, and also, she thought it was an absolutely magnificent poem.She saw herself primarily as a poet, and she responded to it as a poem, which, of course, it is. Also, she liked God in it. She described Him as the Incredible Hulk [laughs] and she liked His boastfulness. She enjoyed, as I do, difficult personalities, and she liked the fact that God had such an incredibly difficult personality. She liked the fact that God boasted and boasted and boasted, "I made this and I made that," to Job, but also I think she liked the fact that you hear God's voice.She was much more interested in voices than she was in faces. The fact that God's voice comes out of the burning bush, I think it was an image for her of early radio, this voice speaking, and she liked the fact that what the voice said was tricksy and touchy and impossibly arrogant. He gives Moses all these instructions to lead the Israelites, and Moses says, "But who shall I say sent me? Who are you?" He says, "I am who I am." [laughs] She thought that was completely wonderful. She quotes that all the time about herself. She says, "I know it's a bit large quoting God, but I am who I am." [laughs]Henry: That disembodied voice is very important to her fiction.Frances: Yes.Henry: It's the telephone in Memento Mori.Frances: Yes.Henry: Also, to some extent, tell me what you think of this, the narrator often acts like that.Frances: Like this disembodied voice?Henry: Yes, like you're supposed to feel like you're not quite sure who's telling you this or where you're being told it from. That's why it gets, like in The Ballad of Peckham Rye or something, very weird.Frances: Yes. I'm waiting for the PhD on Muriel Sparks' narrators. Maybe it's being done as we speak, but she's very, very interested in narrators and the difference between first-person and third-person. She was very keen on not having warm narrators, to put it mildly. She makes a strong argument throughout her work for the absence of the seductive narrative. Her narratives are, as we know, unbelievably seductive, but not because we are being flattered as readers and not because the narrator makes herself or himself pretty. The narrator says what they feel like saying, withholds most of what you would like them to say, plays with us, like in a Spark expression, describing her ideal narrator like a cat with a bird [laughs].Henry: I like that. Could she have been a novelist if she had not become a Catholic?Frances: No, she couldn't. The two things happened at the same time. I wonder, actually, whether she became a Catholic in order to become a novelist. It wasn't that becoming a novelist was an accidental effect of being a Catholic. The conversion was, I think, from being a biographer to a novelist rather than from being an Anglican to a Catholic. What happened is a tremendous interest. I think it's the most interesting moment in any life that I've ever written about is the moment of Sparks' conversion because it did break her life in two.She converted when she was in her mid-30s, and several things happened at once. She converted to Catholicism, she became a Catholic, she became a novelist, but she also had this breakdown. The breakdown was very much part of that conversion package. The breakdown was brought on, she says, by taking Dexys. There was slimming pills, amphetamines. She wanted to lose weight. She put on weight very easily, and her weight went up and down throughout her life.She wanted to take these diet pills, but I think she was also taking the pills because she needed to do all-nighters, because she never, ever, ever stopped working. She was addicted to writing, but also she was impoverished and she had to sell her work, and she worked all night. She was in a rush to get her writing done because she'd wasted so much of her life in her early 20s, in a bad marriage trapped in Africa. She needed to buy herself time. She was on these pills, which have terrible side effects, one of which is hallucinations.I think there were other reasons for her breakdown as well. She was very, very sensitive and I think psychologically fragile. Her mother lived in a state of mental fragility, too. She had a crash when she finished her book. She became depressed. Of course, a breakdown isn't the same as depression, but what happened to her in her breakdown was a paranoid attack rather than a breakdown. She didn't crack into nothing and then have to rebuild herself. She just became very paranoid. That paranoia was always there.Again, it's what's exciting about her writing. She was drawn to paranoia in other writers. She liked Cardinal Newman's paranoia. She liked Charlotte Brontë's paranoia, and she had paranoia. During her paranoid attack, she felt very, very interestingly, because nothing that happened in her life was not interesting, that T.S. Eliot was sending her coded messages. He was encoding these messages in his play, The Confidential Clerk, in the program notes to the play, but also in the blurbs he wrote for Faber and Faber, where he was an editor. These messages were very malign and they were encoded in anagrams.The word lived, for example, became devil. I wonder whether one of the things that happened during her breakdown wasn't that she discovered God, but that she met the devil. I don't think that that's unusual as a conversion experience. In fact, the only conversion experience she ever describes, you'll remember, is in The Girls of Slender Means, when she's describing Nicholas Farrington's conversion. That's the only conversion experience she ever describes. She says that his conversion is when he sees one of the girls leaving the burning building, holding a Schiaparelli dress. Suddenly, he's converted because he's seen a vision of evil.She says, "Conversion can be as a result of a recognition of evil, rather than a recognition of good." I think that what might have happened in this big cocktail of things that happened to her during her breakdown/conversion, is that a writer whom she had idolized, T.S. Eliot, who taught her everything that she needed to know about the impersonality of art. Her narrative coldness comes from Eliot, who thought that emotions had no place in art because they were messy, and art should be clean.I think a writer whom she had idolized, she suddenly felt was her enemy because she was converting from his church, because he was an Anglo-Catholic. He was a high Anglican, and she was leaving Anglo-Catholicism to go through the Rubicon, to cross the Rubicon into Catholicism. She felt very strongly that that is something he would not have approved of.Henry: She's also leaving poetry to become a prose writer.Frances: She was leaving his world of poetry. That's absolutely right.Henry: This is a very curious parallel because the same thing exactly happens to De Quincey with his worship of Wordsworth.Frances: You're right.Henry: They have the same obsessive mania. Then this, as you say, not quite a breakdown, but a kind of explosive mania in the break. De Quincey goes out and destroys that mossy hut or whatever it is in the orchard, doesn't he?Frances: Yes, that disgusting hut in the orchard. Yes, you're completely right. What fascinated me about De Quincey, and this was at the heart of the De Quincey book, was how he had been guided his whole life by Wordsworth. He discovered Wordsworth as a boy when he read We Are Seven, that very creepy poem about a little girl sitting on her sibling's grave, describing the sibling as still alive. For De Quincey, who had lost his very adored sister, he felt that Wordsworth had seen into his soul and that Wordsworth was his mentor and his lodestar.He worshipped Wordsworth as someone who understood him and stalked Wordsworth, pursued and stalked him. When he met him, what he discovered was a man without any redeeming qualities at all. He thought he was a dry monster, but it didn't stop him loving the work. In fact, he loved the work more and more. What threw De Quincey completely was that there was such a difference between Wordsworth, the man who had no genius, and Wordsworth, the poet who had nothing but.Eliot described it, the difference between the man who suffers and the mind which creates. What De Quincey was trying to deal with was the fact that he adulated the work, but was absolutely appalled by the man. Yes, you're right, this same experience happened to spark when she began to feel that T.S. Eliot, whom she had never met, was a malign person, but the work was still not only of immense importance to her, but the work had formed her.Henry: You see the Wasteland all over her own work and the shared Dante obsession.Frances: Yes.Henry: It's remarkably strong. She got to the point of thinking that T.S. Eliot was breaking into her house.Frances: Yes. As I said, she had this paranoid imagination, but also what fired her imagination and what repeated itself again and again in the imaginative scenarios that recur in her fiction and nonfiction is the idea of the intruder. It was the image of someone rifling around in cupboards, drawers, looking at manuscripts. This image, you first find it in a piece she wrote about finding herself completely coincidentally, staying the night during the war in the poet Louis MacNeice's house. She didn't know it was Louis MacNeice's house, but he was a poet who was very, very important to her.Spark's coming back from visiting her parents in Edinburgh in 1944. She gets talking to an au pair on the train. By the time they pull into Houston, there's an air raid, and the au pair says, "Come and spend the night at mine. My employers are away and they live nearby in St. John's Wood." Spark goes to this house and sees it's packed with books and papers, and she's fascinated by the quality of the material she finds there.She looks in all the books. She goes into the attic, and she looks at all the papers, and she asks the au pair whose house it is, and the au pair said, "Oh, he's a professor called Professor Louis MacNeice." Spark had just been reading Whitney. He's one of her favourite poets. She retells this story four times in four different forms, as non-fiction, as fiction, as a broadcast, as reflections, but the image that keeps coming back, what she can't get rid of, is the idea of herself as snooping around in this poet's study.She describes herself, in one of the versions, as trying to draw from his papers his power as a writer. She says she sniffs his pens, she puts her hands over his papers, telling herself, "I must become a writer. I must become a writer." Then she makes this weird anonymous phone call. She loved the phone because it was the most strange form of electrical device. She makes a weird anonymous phone call to an agent, saying, "I'm ringing from Louis MacNeice's house, would you like to see my manuscript?" She doesn't give her name, and the agent says yes.Now I don't believe this phone call took place. I think it's part of Sparks' imagination. This idea of someone snooping around in someone else's room was very, very powerful to her. Then she transposed it in her paranoid attack about T.S. Eliot. She transposed the image that Eliot was now in her house, but not going through her papers, but going through her food cupboards. [laughs] In her food cupboards, all she actually had was baked beans because she was a terrible cook. Part of her unwellness at that point was malnutrition. No, she thought that T.S. Eliot was spying on her. She was obsessed with spies. Spies, snoopers, blackmailers.Henry: T.S. Eliot is Stealing My Baked Beans would have been a very good title for a memoir.Frances: It actually would, wouldn't it?Henry: Yes, it'd be great.[laughter]Henry: People listening will be able to tell that Spark is a very spooky person in several different ways. She had what I suppose we would call spiritual beliefs to do with ghosts and other sorts of things. You had a sort of conversion of your own while writing this book, didn't you?Frances: Yes, I did. [laughs] Every time I write a biography, I become very, very, very immersed in who I'm writing about. I learned this from Richard Holmes, who I see as a method biographer. He Footsteps his subjects. He becomes his subjects. I think I recognized when I first read Holmes's Coleridge, when I was a student, that this was how I also wanted to live. I wanted to live inside the minds of the people that I wrote about, because it was very preferable to live inside my own mind. Why not live inside the mind of someone really, really exciting, one with genius?What I felt with Spark wasn't so much that I was immersed by-- I wasn't immersed by her. I felt actually possessed by her. I think this is the Spark effect. I think a lot of her friends felt like this. I think that her lovers possibly felt like this. There is an extraordinary force to her character, which absolutely lives on, even though she's dead, but only recently dead. The conversion I felt, I think, was that I have always been a very enlightenment thinker, very rational, very scientific, very Freudian in my approach to-- I will acknowledge the unconscious but no more.By the time I finished with Spark, I'm pure woo-woo now. Anything can happen. This is one of the reasons Spark was attracted to Catholicism because anything can happen, because it legitimizes the supernatural. I felt so strongly that the supernatural experiences that Spark had were real, that what Spark was describing as the spookiness of our own life were things that actually happened.One of the things I found very, very unsettling about her was that everything that happened to her, she had written about first. She didn't describe her experiences in retrospect. She described them as in foresight. For example, her first single authored published book, because she wrote for a while in collaboration with her lover, Derek Stanford, but her first single authored book was a biography of Mary Shelley.Henry: Great book.Frances: An absolutely wonderful book, which really should be better than any of the other Mary Shelley biographies. She completely got to Mary Shelley. Everything she described in Mary Shelley's life would then happen to Spark. For example, she described Mary Shelley as having her love letters sold. Her lover sold Mary Shelley's love letters, and Mary Shelley was then blackmailed by the person who bought them. This happened to Spark. She described Mary Shelley's closest friends all becoming incredibly jealous of her literary talent. This happened to Spark. She described trusting people who betrayed her. This happened to Spark.Spark was the first person to write about Frankenstein seriously, to treat Frankenstein as a masterpiece rather than as a one-off weird novel that is actually just the screenplay for a Hammer Horror film. This was 1951, remember. Everything she described in Frankenstein as its power is a hybrid text, described the powerful hybrid text that she would later write about. What fascinated her in Frankenstein was the relationship between the creator and the monster, and which one was the monster. This is exactly the story of her own life. I think where she is. She was really interested in art monsters and in the fact that the only powerful writers out there, the only writers who make a dent, are monsters.If you're not a monster, you're just not competing. I think Spark has always spoken about as having a monster-like quality. She says at the end of one of her short stories, Bang-bang You're Dead, "Am I an intellectual woman, or am I a monster?" It's the question that is frequently asked of Spark. I think she worked so hard to monsterize herself. Again, she learnt this from Elliot. She learnt her coldness from Elliot. She learnt indifference from Elliot. There's a very good letter where she's writing to a friend, Shirley Hazzard, in New York.It's after she discovers that her lover, Derek Stanford, has sold her love letters, 70 love letters, which describe two very, very painfully raw, very tender love letters. She describes to Shirley Hazzard this terrible betrayal. She says, "But, I'm over it. I'm over it now. Now I'm just going to be indifferent." She's telling herself to just be indifferent about this. You watch her tutoring herself into the indifference that she needed in order to become the artist that she knew she was.Henry: Is this why she's attracted to mediocrities, because she can possess them and monsterize them, and they're good feeding for her artistic programme?Frances: Her attraction to mediocrities is completely baffling, and it makes writing her biography, a comedy, because the men she was surrounded by were so speck-like. Saw themselves as so important, but were, in fact, so speck-like that you have to laugh, and it was one after another after another. I'd never come across, in my life, so many men I'd never heard of. This was the literary world that she was surrounded by. It's odd, I don't know whether, at the time, she knew how mediocre these mediocrities were.She certainly recognised it in her novels where they're all put together into one corporate personality called the pisseur de copie in A Far Cry from Kensington, where every single literary mediocrity is in that critic who she describes as pissing and vomiting out copy. With Derek Stanford, who was obviously no one's ever heard of now, because he wrote nothing that was memorable, he was her partner from the end of the 40s until-- They ceased their sexual relationship when she started to be interested in becoming a Catholic in 1953, but she was devoted to him up until 1958. She seemed to be completely incapable of recognising that she had the genius and he had none.Her letters to him deferred to him, all the time, as having literary powers that she hadn't got, as having insights that she hadn't got, he's better read than she was. She was such an amazingly good critic. Why could she not see when she looked at his baggy, bad prose that it wasn't good enough? She rated him so highly. When she was co-authoring books with him, which was how she started her literary career, they would occasionally write alternative sentences. Some of her sentences are always absolutely-- they're sharp, lean, sparkling, and witty, and his are way too long and really baggy and they don't say anything. Obviously, you can see that she's irritated by it.She still doesn't say, "Look, I'm going now." It was only when she became a novelist that she said, "I want my mind to myself." She puts, "I want my mind to myself." She didn't want to be in a double act with him. Doubles were important to her. She didn't want to be in a double act with him anymore. He obviously had bought into her adulation of him and hadn't recognised that she had this terrifying power as a writer. It was now his turn to have the breakdown. Spark had the mental breakdown in 1950, '45. When her first novel came out in 1957, it was Stanford who had the breakdown because he couldn't take on board who she was as a novelist.What he didn't know about her as a novelist was her comic sense, how that would fuel the fiction, but also, he didn't recognize because he reviewed her books badly. He didn't recognise that the woman who had been so tender, vulnerable, and loving with him could be this novelist who had nothing to say about tenderness or love. In his reviews, he says, "Why are her characters so cold?" because he thought that she should be writing from the core of her as a human being rather than the core of her as an intellect.Henry: What are her best novels?Frances: Every one I read, I think this has to be the best.[laughter]This is particularly the case in the early novels, where I'm dazzled by The Comforters and think there cannot have been a better first novel of the 20th century or even the 21st century so far. The Comforters. Then read Robinson, her second novel, and think, "Oh God, no, that is her best novel. Then Memento Mori, I think, "Actually, that must be the best novel of the 20th century." [laughs] Then you move on to The Ballad of Peckham Rye, I think, "No, that's even better."The novels landed. It's one of the strange things about her; it took her so long to become a novelist. When she had become one, the novels just landed. Once in one year, two novels landed. In 1959, she had, it was The Bachelors and The Ballad of Peckham Rye, both just completely extraordinary. The novels had been the storing up, and then they just fell on the page. They're different, but samey. They're samey in as much as they're very, very, very clever. They're clever about Catholicism, and they have the same narrative wit. My God, do the plots work in different ways. She was wonderful at plots. She was a great plotter. She liked plots in both senses of the world.She liked the idea of plotting against someone, also laying a plot. She was, at the same time, absolutely horrified by being caught inside someone's plot. That's what The Comforters is about, a young writer called Caroline Rose, who has a breakdown, it's a dramatisation of Sparks' own breakdown, who has a breakdown, and believes that she is caught inside someone else's story. She is a typewriter repeating all of her thoughts. Typewriter and a chorus repeating all of her thoughts.What people say about The Comforters is that Caroline Rose thought she is a heroine of a novel who finds herself trapped in a novel. Actually, if you read what Caroline Rose says in the novel, she doesn't think she's trapped in a novel; she thinks she's trapped in a biography. "There is a typewriter typing the story of our lives," she says to her boyfriend. "Of our lives." Muriel Sparks' first book was about being trapped in a biography, which is, of course, what she brought on herself when she decided to trap herself in a biography. [laughs]Henry: I think I would vote for Loitering with Intent, The Girls of Slender Means as my favourites. I can see that Memento Mori is a good book, but I don't love it, actually.Frances: Really? Interesting. Okay. I completely agree with you about-- I think Loitering with Intent is my overall favourite. Don't you find every time you read it, it's a different book? There are about 12 books I've discovered so far in that book. She loved books inside books, but every time I read it, I think, "Oh my God, it's changed shape again. It's a shape-shifting novel."Henry: We all now need the Frances Wilson essay about the 12 books inside Loitering with Intent.Frances: I know.[laughter]Henry: A few more general questions to close. Did Thomas De Quincey waste his talents?Frances: I wouldn't have said so. I think that's because every single day of his life, he was on opium.Henry: I think the argument is a combination of too much opium and also too much magazine work and not enough "real serious" philosophy, big poems, whatever.Frances: I think the best of his work went into Blackwood's, so the magazine work. When he was taken on by Blackwood's, the razor-sharp Edinburgh magazine, then the best of his work took place. I think that had he only written the murder essays, that would have been enough for me, On Murder as a Fine Art.That was enough. I don't need any more of De Quincey. I think Confessions of an English Opium-Eater is also enough in as much as it's the great memoir of addiction. We don't need any more memoirs of addiction, just read that. It's not just a memoir of being addicted to opium. It's about being addicted to what's what. It's about being a super fan and addicted to writing. He was addicted to everything. If he was in AA now, they'd say, apparently, there are 12 addictions, he had all of them. [laughs]Henry: Yes. People talk a lot about parasocial relationships online, where you read someone online or you follow them, and you have this strange idea in your head that you know them in some way, even though they're just this disembodied online person. You sometimes see people say, "Oh, we should understand this more." I think, "Well, read the history of literature, parasocial relationships everywhere."Frances: That's completely true. I hadn't heard that term before. The history of literature, a parasocial relationship. That's your next book.Henry: There we go. I think what I want from De Quincey is more about Shakespeare, because I think the Macbeth essay is superb.Frances: Absolutely brilliant. On Knocking at the Gate in Macbeth.Henry: Yes, and then you think, "Wait, where's the rest of this book? There should be an essay about every play."Frances: That's an absolutely brilliant example of microhistory, isn't it? Just taking a moment in a play, just the knocking at the gate, the morning after the murders, and blowing that moment up, so it becomes the whole play. Oh, my God, it's good. You're right.Henry: It's so good. What is, I think, "important about it", is that in the 20th century, critics started saying or scholars started saying a lot, "We can't just look at the words on the page. We've got to think about the dramaturgy. We've got to really, really think about how it plays out." De Quincey was an absolute master of that. It's really brilliant.Frances: Yes.Henry: What's your favourite modern novel or novelist?Frances: Oh, Hilary Mantel, without doubt, I think. I think we were lucky enough to live alongside a great, great, great novelist. I think the Wolf Hall trilogy is absolutely the greatest piece of narrative fiction that's come out of the 21st century. I also love her. I love her work as an essayist. I love her. She's spooky like Spark. She was inspired.Henry: Yes, she is. Yes.Frances: She learnt a lot of her cunning from Spark, I think. She's written a very spooky memoir. In fact, the only women novelists who acknowledge Spark as their influencer are Ali Smith and Hilary Mantel, although you can see Spark in William Boyd all the time. I think we're pretty lucky to live alongside William Boyd as well. Looking for real, real greatness, I think there's no one to compare with Mantel. Do you agree?Henry: I don't like the third volume of the trilogy.Frances: Okay. Right.Henry: Yes, in general, I do agree. Yes. I think some people don't like historical fiction for a variety of reasons. It may take some time for her to get it. I think she's acknowledged as being really good. I don't know that she's yet acknowledged at the level that you're saying.Frances: Yes.Henry: I think that will take a little bit longer. Maybe as and when there's a biography that will help with that, which I'm sure there will be a biography.Frances: I think they need to wait. I do think it's important to wait for a reputation to settle before starting the biography. Her biography will be very interesting because she married the same man twice. Her growth as a novelist was so extraordinary. Spark, she spent time in Africa. She had this terrible, terrible illness. She knew something. I think what I love about Mantel is, as with Spark, she knew something. She knew something, and she didn't quite know what it was that she knew. She had to write because of this knowledge. When you read her, you know that she's on a different level of understanding.Henry: You specialise in slightly neglected figures of English literature. Who else among the canonical writers deserves a bit more attention?Frances: Oh, that's interesting. I love minor characters. I think Spark was very witty about describing herself as a minor novelist or a writer of minor novels when she was evidently major. She always saw the comedy in being a minor. All the minor writers interest me. Elizabeth Bowen, Henry Green. No, they have heard Elizabeth Bowen has been treated well by Hermione Lee and Henry Green has been treated well by Jeremy Treglown.Why are they not up there yet? They're so much better than most of their contemporaries. I am mystified and fascinated by why it is that the most powerful writers tend to be kicked into the long grass. It's dazzling. When you read a Henry Green novel, you think, "But this is what it's all about. He's understood everything about what the novel can do. Why has no one heard of him?"Henry: I think Elizabeth Bowen's problem is that she's so concise, dense, and well-structured, and everything really plays its part in the pattern of the whole that it's not breezy reading.Frances: No, it's absolutely not.Henry: I think that probably holds her back in some way, even though when I have pushed it on people, most of the time they've said, "Gosh, she's a genius."Frances: Yes.Henry: It's not an easy genius. Whereas Dickens, the pages sort of fly along, something like that.Frances: Yes. One of the really interesting things about Spark is that she really, really is easy reading. At the same time, there's so much freight in those books. There's so much intellectual weight and so many games being played. There's so many books inside the books. Yet you can just read them for the pleasure. You can just read them for the plot. You can read one in an afternoon and think that you've been lost inside a book for 10 years. You don't get that from Elizabeth Bowen. That's true. The novels, you feel the weight, don't you?Henry: Yes.Frances: She's Jamesian. She's more Jamesian, I think, than Spark is.Henry: Something like A World of Love, it requires quite a lot of you.Frances: Yes, it does. Yes, it's not bedtime reading.Henry: No, exactly.Frances: Sitting up in a library.Henry: Yes. Now, you mentioned James. You're a Henry James expert.Frances: I did my PhD on Henry James.Henry: Yes. Will you ever write about him?Frances: I have, actually. Just a little plug. I've just done a selection of James's short stories, three volumes, which are coming out, I think, later this year for Riverrun with a separate introduction for each volume. I think that's all the writing I'm going to do on James. When I was an academic, I did some academic essays on him for collections and things. No, I've never felt, ever, ready to write on James because he's too complicated. I can only take tiny, tiny bits of James and home in on them.Henry: He's a great one for trying to crack the code.Frances: He really is. In fact, I was struck all the way through writing Electric Spark by James's understanding of the comedy of biography, which is described in the figure in the carpet. Remember that wonderful story where there's a writer called Verica who explains to a young critic that none of the critics have understood what his work's about. Everything that's written about him, it's fine, but it's absolutely missed his main point, his beautiful point. He said that in order to understand what the work's about, you have to look for The Figure in the Carpet. It's The Figure in the CarpetIt's the string on which my pearls are strung. A couple of critics become completely obsessed with looking for this Figure in the Carpet. Of course, Spark loved James's short stories. You feel James's short stories playing inside her own short stories. I think that one of the games she left for her biographers was the idea of The Figure in the Carpet. Go on, find it then. Find it. [laughs] The string on which my pearls are strung.Henry: Why did you leave academia? We should say that you did this before it became the thing that everyone's doing.Frances: Is everyone leaving now?Henry: A lot of people are leaving now.Frances: Oh, I didn't know. I was ahead of the curve. I left 20 years ago because I wasn't able to write the books I wanted to write. I left when I'd written two books as an academic. My first was Literary Seductions, and my second was a biography of a blackmailing courtesan called Harriet Wilson, and the book was called The Courtesan's Revenge. My department was sniffy about the books because they were published by Faber and not by OUP, and suggested that somehow I was lowering the tone of the department.This is what things were like 20 years ago. Then I got a contract to write The Ballad of Dorothy Wordsworth, my third book, again with Faber. I didn't want to write the book with my head of department in the back of my mind saying, "Make this into an academic tome and put footnotes in." I decided then that I would leave, and I left very suddenly. Now, I said I'm leaving sort of now, and I've got books to write, and felt completely liberated. Then for The Ballad of Dorothy Wordsworth, I decided not to have footnotes. It's the only book I've ever written without footnotes, simply as a celebration of no longer being in academia.Then the things I loved about being in academia, I loved teaching, and I loved being immersed in literature, but I really couldn't be around colleagues and couldn't be around the ridiculous rules of what was seen as okay. In fact, the university I left, then asked me to come back on a 0.5 basis when they realised that it was now fashionable to have someone who was a trade author. They asked me to come back, which I did not want to do. I wanted to spend days where I didn't see people rather than days where I had to talk to colleagues all the time. I think that academia is very unhappy. The department I was in was incredibly unhappy.Since then, I took up a job very briefly in another English department where I taught creative writing part-time. That was also incredibly unhappy. I don't know whether other French departments or engineering departments are happier places than English departments, but English departments are the most unhappy places I think I've ever seen.[laughter]Henry: What do you admire about the work of George Meredith?Frances: Oh, I love George Meredith. [laughs] Yes. I think Modern Love, his first novel, Modern Love, in a strange sonnet form, where it's not 14 lines, but 16 lines. By the time you get to the bottom two lines, the novel, the sonnet has become hysterical. Modern Love hasn't been properly recognised. It's an account of the breakdown of his marriage. His wife, who was the daughter of the romantic, minor novelist, Thomas Love Peacock. His wife had an affair with the artist who painted the famous Death of Chatterton. Meredith was the model for Chatterton, the dead poet in his purple silks, with his hand falling on the ground. There's a lot of mythology around Meredith.I think, as with Elizabeth Bowen and Henry Green, he's difficult. He's difficult. The other week, I tried to reread Diana of the Crossways, which was a really important novel, and I still love it. I really recognise that it's not an easy read. He doesn't try, in any way, to seduce his readers. They absolutely have to crawl inside each book to sit inside his mind and see the world as he's seeing it.Henry: Can you tell us what you will do next?Frances: At the moment, I'm testing some ideas out. I feel, at the end of every biography, you need a writer. You need to cleanse your palate. Otherwise, there's a danger of writing the same book again. I need this time, I think, to write about, to move century and move genders. I want to go back, I think, to the 19th century. I want to write about a male writer for a moment, and possibly not a novelist as well, because after being immersed in Muriel Sparks' novels, no other novel is going to seem good enough. I'm testing 19th-century men who didn't write novels, and it will probably be a minor character.Henry: Whatever it is, I look forward to reading it. Frances Wilson, thank you very much.Frances: Thank you so much, Henry. This is a public episode.

In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Ihr habt gehört, dass gesagt worden ist: Auge für Auge und Zahn für Zahn. Ich aber sage euch: Leistet dem, der euch etwas Böses antut, keinen Widerstand, sondern wenn dich einer auf die rechte Wange schlägt, dann halt ihm auch die andere hin! Und wenn dich einer vor Gericht bringen will, um dir das Hemd wegzunehmen, dann lass ihm auch den Mantel! Und wenn dich einer zwingen will, eine Meile mit ihm zu gehen, dann geh zwei mit ihm! Wer dich bittet, dem gib, und wer von dir borgen will, den weise nicht ab! (© Ständige Kommission für die Herausgabe der gemeinsamen liturgischen Bücher im deutschen Sprachgebiet)

Ein Gesicht, eine Geschichte – und eine Vergangenheit, die schwer wiegt. In dieser bewegenden Folge von superfromms pricht Cordula zum ersten Mal öffentlich über ein Familiengeheimnis, das jahrzehntelang unter einem unsichtbaren Mantel verborgen lag: Ihr Bruder ermordete seine Freundin – und nahm sich anschließend selbst das Leben. Wie geht man weiter, wenn die eigene Geschichte so einen Einschnitt erfährt? Wie lebt man mit Angst, Scham und der Frage: Hätte ich etwas verhindern können? Cordula nimmt uns mit in ihre Kindheit auf dem Land, erzählt von Einsamkeit, dem Zufallsfund christlicher Bücher auf dem Dachboden, ihrer Sehnsucht nach einem anderen Leben – und ihrem Weg zu Gott. Was wie ein Krimi beginnt, ist ein tiefes, ehrliches Gespräch über Traumata, Glauben und die Kraft, Dinge nicht mehr zu verstecken. Cordula spricht über ihre drei Söhne, über Angst, die sich nicht einfach abschütteln lässt – und über das Vertrauen, dass Jesus spätestens rechtzeitig hilft.

« Il est temps de démanteler Google. » La revendication émane de J. D. Vance : il l'a écrite et postée sur son compte X, le 23 février 2024. Soit quasiment un an avant qu'il ne devienne le vice-président des Etats-Unis et que ne s'ouvre le nouveau procès de la firme américaine.Google fait actuellement l'objet de deux procédures antitrust : accusée d'une part d'avoir maintenu sa position dominante dans la recherche, grâce à un coûteux accord avec Apple, et dans la publicité en ligne. De son côté, Meta se défend, face à un juge d'un tribunal fédéral de Washington, d'avoir écrasé la concurrence en rachetant Instagram en 2012 puis WhatsApp, deux ans plus tard. Dans les prochains mois, Apple et Amazon devront également convaincre la justice américaine qu'ils n'exercent pas de domination écrasante et illégale sur leur secteur économique.Très attendus aux Etats-Unis, ces procès antitrust contre des géants du numérique (Gafam, pour Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon et Microsoft) restent nimbés d'une forte incertitude, Donald Trump ayant la possibilité d'y mettre fin à tout moment. Mais le président américain, qui a pourtant vu tous les géants de la tech défiler lors de sa cérémonie d'investiture, multiplie les signaux contradictoires à leur égard.Comment expliquer que Donald Trump maintienne ces procédures ? Qu'est-ce que la justice américaine reproche précisément aux géants de la tech ? Et risquent-ils d'être démantelés ? Dans cet épisode du podcast « L'Heure du Monde », Alexandre Piquard, journaliste chargé des entreprises de la tech pour le service Economie du Monde, développe les enjeux soulevés par ces procès en cours.Un épisode de Marion Bothorel. Réalisation et musiques : Amandine Robillard. Présentation et suivi éditorial : Jean-Guillaume Santi. Dans cet épisode : lectures d'e-mails envoyés par Mark Zuckerberg en 2012 et cités par la Federal Trade Commission, d'un post de J. D. Vance publié sur le réseau social X le 23 février 2024 et extrait d'un sujet diffusé par Euronews le 8 juillet 2021.Cet épisode a été publié le 28 mai 2025.---Pour soutenir "L'Heure du Monde" et notre rédaction, abonnez-vous sur abopodcast.lemonde.frQue pensez-vous des podcasts du « Monde » ?

Shula Tas in gesprek met Hanneke Mantel, Hoofd Tentoonstellingen en Collectie bij Fenix en curator van de tentoonstelling The Family of Migrants. Fenix, het nieuwe kunstmuseum over migratie in Rotterdam opent deze weken haar deuren met de tentoonstelling The Family of Migrants. De tentoonstelling laat bijna 200 foto's rondom het thema migratie zien, gemaakt door 136 fotografen in 55 landen. Wereldberoemde foto's van onder meer Steve McCurry en Dorothea Lange worden naast minder bekend en nooit eerder getoond beeld gepresenteerd. De fototentoonstelling is geïnspireerd op de tentoonstelling The Family of Man van Edward Steichen, die in 1955 te zien was in het Museum of Modern Art in New York. Deze tentoonstelling vertelde het universele verhaal van de mens. The Family of Migrants doet dat ook, maar dan met een focus op migratie.  

Im Mai präsentierten sich die internationalen Börsen für Einkommensinvestoren einmal mehr als herausforderndes Spielfeld zwischen Chancen und Risiken. Während geopolitische Unsicherheiten und volatile Börsenkurse für Nervosität sorgten, eröffnen sich zugleich attraktive Gelegenheiten für antizyklisch agierende Anleger. Die aktuelle Folge des Einkommensinvestoren-Blitzlichts beleuchtet die wichtigsten Entwicklungen: Von der Goldrallye über den Generationenwechsel bei Berkshire Hathaway bis hin zu den Dividendenhighlights in Europa und den Besonderheiten des Optionsmarkts. Das Einkommensinvestoren-Blitzlicht wird von Trading212 vorgestellt, nach unserem Dafürhalten ein echter Neobroker für Einkommensinvestoren. Das Investitionsspektrum umfasst circa 10.000 Wertpapiere an 13 internationalen Börsen, darunter eine Vielzahl dividendenstarker Aktien, ETFs, ETPs und CEFs – und das ohne Ordergebühren und ohne Fremdkostenpauschale:

What up Fellas! Mittlerweile ist eine Woche vergangen und dennoch scheint es immer noch surreal, dass der Bira von uns gegangen ist. Ohne den kühnen Anspruch zu erheben, sein Leben in irgendeiner Weise vollständig zu portraitieren, widmen wir uns heute in Form eines Nachrufs dem Leben und Wirken des Babas aller Babas. Im Iran geboren begann in den frühen 80ern ein Leben, welches von Flucht, Hochkultur und Durchsetzungskraft geprägt war. Aus dem irakischen Knast über Paris nach Bobinn ging die erste Reise, lange bevor er sich nach dem kurdischen Begriff für "Gefahr" benannte und Deutschrap sowohl mit Westcoast-lastigen G-Funk Sounds als auch mit einzigartigen Protegés wie SSIO und der Schwesta prägen sollte. Wenn ein Leben ein Kinofilm ist, dann das von Giwar Hajabi, was auch Fatih Akin erkannte und mit "Rheingold" im Jahr 2022 umsetzte. Neben seiner manigfaltigen Prägungen für Deutschrap per sé wusste XATAR sich immer zu verkaufen und startete etliche Business-Ventures ohne viel zu reden. Wir gedenken einem der ganz Großen, Giwar Hajabi wurde leider nur 43 Jahre alt. Rest in Peace Checkt gerne die neue Folge „Rap gehört zum guten Ton“ aus! Habt ein schönes Wochenende! Stay strapped und seid lieb zueinander!

“UMWSZNS”, “DEWTEHT” – „haben die beiden jetzt auch noch Lack gesoffen?!?“ Das fragt ihr euch vollkommen zu Recht. Aber keine Sorge: Frei nach Stefan Raab sind wir ins „Abkürzungsgame“ aber mal ganz tief eingestiegen. “UMWSZNS” ist doch klar, das kann doch nur „Unsere Must-Watch-Spiele zur neuen Saison“ heißen. Seit Donnerstagnacht unserer Zeit ist der NFL-Spielplan ja ganz offiziell veröffentlicht worden (über die 4000 Leaks vorher hüllen wir den Mantel des Schweigens). Daher haben wir uns eine ganz einfache Aufgabe gestellt: Jeder sucht sich drei Spielplan-Perlen der neuen Saison raus. Und was sollen wir sagen: Idee gut, Ausführung gar nicht so leicht, weil es soooo viele gute Spiele geben wird! Kommen wir zu “DEWTEHT”: Auch hier ist das Ganze schnell und einfach dechiffriert. „Die ENDZN Way too early Hottakes“ sind damit gemeint. Wir schauen auf die neue Saison voraus und machen das mit jeweils drei Hottakes. Zerreißt uns nicht jetzt schon in der Luft, Hottakes müssen „hot“ sein. Und dann haben wir für euch in der letzten Ausgabe der NFL-Spielzeit 2024 noch ein echtes Schmankerl. Nadine Nurasyid, unsere DAZN-Expertin, war die letzte Woche in Tampa bei den Buccaneers! Aber nicht zum Urlaub machen, sondern um von den Besten zu Lernen. Wie kam sie zu diesem „Praktikum“? Welcher Tampa-Rookie sah im Minicamp schon ganz gut aus? Und was zum Teufel hat sie im Büro von Bucs-Trainer Todd Bowles gemacht (und wie ist sie da hingekommen)? Ja und dann war es das mit der Podcast-Staffel bzw. Podcast-Saison 2024. Danke euch fürs fleißige Zuhören und Zuschauen. Wir hören und sehen uns dann hoffentlich zur neuen Saison wieder. In der Zwischenzeit könnt ihr uns gerne auf Social Media folgen, natürlich auch gerne eine Sternebewertung dalassen. Und ganz wichtig: Schreibt uns euer Feedback. Was hat euch gefallen, was können wir besser machen? Aber bitte nicht in Abkürzungen à la Stefan Raab. In dem Fall gerne ganze Sätze. Und jetzt wünschen wir euch eine geilen Sommer, die NFL-Saison kommt wie immer ganz schnell… Folgt uns gerne auf Social Media, lasst eine Sternebewertung für den Podcast da und/oder schreibt uns euer Feedback. Wir freuen uns immer von euch zu hören! Flo: @Floesel20 (X/Twitter), @flohauser20 (Instagram) Christoph: @chstadtler (X/Twitter) @christoph.stadtler (Instagram)

Manchmal wiederholen sich Beziehungsmuster wie in Dauerschleife – auch dann, wenn wir längst verstanden haben, was dahintersteckt. In dieser Folge schauen wir noch einmal tiefer unter die Oberfläche: Warum sind manche von uns so verletzlich, während andere wie abgehärtet wirken? Was hat das mit unserer Kindheit zu tun – und mit der Frage, ob wir mit dickem Mantel oder nackter Haut durchs Leben gehen? Ich nehme dich mit auf eine ganz persönliche Reise in unsere Beziehungsdynamiken – mit einer berührenden Metapher, ehrlichem Feedback und der Einladung, deinen eigenen Platz zwischen Nähe und Selbstschutz zu finden.#bindungsmuster #emotionalenähe #beziehungWERBUNGAlle Infos, Partner und Rabatte findest Du hier: https://linktr.ee/leben.lieben.lassen.podcastLINKS AUS DIESER FOLGE:geführte Meditationen von Leben-Lieben-Lassen Playlist (Spotify)CLAUDIA, LINKS UND RESSOURCENWeitere Inspiration auf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leben_lieben_lassen_podcast/Webseite & Beratung: https://leben-lieben-lassen.de/Alle Infos zu mir und meinen Angeboten: https://linktr.ee/Leben_Lieben_LassenLeben Lieben Lassen-Podcast in deiner App hören: https://pod.link/1102340111HÖRERFRAGEN IM PODCASTStelle mir ganz anonym Deine Frage in der "Leben-Lieben-Lassen"-Sprechstunde und werde Teil der Show.

Ich erzähle dir, warum ich mich entschieden habe, den Podcast „Achtsam Schlank“ zu beenden. Was sich in mir verändert hat. Und warum ich heute mit noch mehr Herz, Tiefe und Klarheit für etwas Neues losgehe. Es ging mir nie darum, dass du dich 5 Kilo „schlanker“ optimierst.

Les opérations de démantèlement de camps de migrants africains subsahariens continuent en Tunisie. Jeudi dernier, des unités de la garde nationale ont mis le feu a des tentes installées dans des oliveraies dans la localité d'El Amra. Ces opérations interviennent à un moment d'accélération des retours "volontaires" de personnes migrantes dans leurs pays. Selon l'OIM, depuis janvier, plus de 2300 personnes ont pu être rapatriées de façon "volontaire" depuis la Tunisie, contre 7000 sur l'année 2024.

Last summer, when The New York Times Book Review released its list of the 100 Best Books of the 21st Century, one of the authors with multiple titles on that list was Hilary Mantel, who died in 2022. Those novels were “Wolf Hall” and “Bring Up the Bodies,” the first two in a trilogy of novels about Thomas Cromwell, the all-purpose fixer and adviser to King Henry VIII.Those books were also adapted into a 2015 television series starring Mark Rylance as Cromwell and Damien Lewis as King Henry. It's now a decade later and the third book in Mantel's series, “The Mirror and the Light,” has also been adapted for the small screen. Its finale airs on Sunday, April 27.Joining host Gilbert Cruz on this week's episode is Mantel's former editor Nicholas Pearson. He describes what it was like to encounter those books for the first time, and to work with a great author on a groundbreaking masterpiece of historical fiction.

Loaded Gun Left on Mantel: Kansas Father Charged After Toddler's Fatal Shooting  She was three years old. He was supposed to be the adult. It's hard to imagine a more disturbing combination of tragedy and negligence than what allegedly happened on the night of February 28th in a small Kansas home. Michael Tejeda, a 25-year-old father, is now facing murder charges after police say his toddler daughter got hold of his gun — and used it to shoot and kill her 1-year-old sister. Tejeda is in custody with the Sedgwick County Sheriff's Office. He was booked on March 1st, but the newly released arrest affidavit paints a horrifying picture of what unfolded in his living room that evening. At some point that night, Tejeda called 911. On the call, he reportedly told the dispatcher that his 3-year-old daughter shot his 1-year-old daughter. In the background, you can allegedly hear him asking the toddler, “Why she did that.” It's a question that has no answer — and one no child should ever be asked. When first responders arrived, the 1-year-old was still alive but gravely wounded. She was rushed to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead just before 9:30 p.m. According to what Tejeda told investigators, the children's mother had gone out earlier that evening. She left the girls in his care while she was at a friend's apartment getting tattoos. Tejeda said he fell asleep on the couch while the girls were napping and watching TV. When he woke up around 6 p.m., his loaded handgun — which had been tucked into a "prop" holster in the front of his waistband — was apparently still there. But two hours later, he realized the gun had shifted. He removed it from the holster and placed it on the fireplace mantel — a spot he estimated to be about four feet high. He admitted to police that the holster had no retention, meaning it couldn't hold the gun securely. If it tipped or moved, the gun could fall out. So he placed the loaded firearm, within reach, and then went into his bedroom to change clothes. And that's when he heard the bang. According to the affidavit, Tejeda said his 3-year-old daughter came running to her room crying. When he asked what happened, she allegedly told him, “It was your gun. I'm sorry.” He rushed back into the living room and found his 1-year-old daughter lying on the couch with a gunshot wound to the head. The gun, he said, was next to her on the couch. It's the kind of moment that freezes time — but in this case, it also raised serious legal questions. Because as horrifying as it is, none of this appears to have been an accident in the eyes of the law. It was, allegedly, criminal negligence. During the investigation, Tejeda also told police that his daughter had been curious about the gun before. She'd made comments about it. It wasn't new to her — she'd noticed it. Asked about her day during a forensic interview, the 3-year-old said nothing about the shooting. Instead, she wanted to play. She mentioned getting a Band-Aid earlier, but no more. Whether that was innocence, trauma, or just the way a 3-year-old brain processes something unthinkable… no one can say. The girls' mother told police she was finishing her tattoos when Tejeda called her. He told her the older girl had shot the baby. She reportedly told him to call 911 and raced home. When she arrived, she grabbed her older daughter, who was repeating that she was sorry. It's impossible to ignore the gut punch of this situation. A 3-year-old allegedly pulled the trigger, but it was an adult who left a loaded weapon within reach. And that's what the law is focused on. Michael Tejeda has been charged with first-degree murder, criminal possession of a weapon by a felon, and two counts of aggravated child endangerment. #GunSafety #TrueCrimePodcast #KansasNews #ParentalNegligence Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Vor allem ein Gadget darf dabei laut den Experten von Team Darkside nicht fehlen: der verdorbene Mantel.

Bruder Julian Bruder Julian studiert gerade ein Semester in Leuven, Belgien. Was für neue Erfahrungen er dort gemacht hat und welche Auswirken sie auf seinen Glauben haben, zeigt er uns in seinem Sonntagsimpuls. [Evangelium: Lukas, Kapitel 6, Verse 27 bis 38] In jener Zeit sprach Jesus zu seinen Jüngern: Euch, die ihr zuhört, sage ich: Liebt eure Feinde; tut denen Gutes, die euch hassen! Segnet die, die euch verfluchen; betet für die, die euch beschimpfen! Dem, der dich auf die eine Wange schlägt, halt auch die andere hin und dem, der dir den Mantel wegnimmt, lass auch das Hemd! Gib jedem, der dich bittet; und wenn dir jemand das Deine wegnimmt, verlang es nicht zurück! Und wie ihr wollt, dass euch die Menschen tun sollen, das tut auch ihr ihnen! Wenn ihr die liebt, die euch lieben, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Denn auch die Sünder lieben die, von denen sie geliebt werden. Und wenn ihr denen Gutes tut, die euch Gutes tun, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Das tunauch die Sünder. Und wenn ihr denen Geld leiht, von denen ihr es zurückzubekommen hofft, welchen Dank erwartet ihr dafür? Auch die Sünder leihen Sündern, um das Gleiche zurückzubekommen. Doch ihr sollt eure Feinde lieben und Gutes tun und leihen, wo ihr nichts zurückerhoffen könnt. Dann wird euer Lohn groß sein und ihr werdet Söhne des Höchsten sein; denn auch er ist gütig gegen die Undankbaren und Bösen. Seid barmherzig, wie auch euer Vater barmherzig ist! Richtet nicht, dann werdet auch ihr nicht gerichtet werden! Verurteilt nicht, dann werdet auch ihr nicht verurteilt werden! Erlasst einander die Schuld, dann wird auch euch die Schuld erlassen werden! Gebt, dann wird auch euch gegeben werden! Ein gutes, volles, gehäuftes, überfließendes Maß wird man euch in den Schoß legen; denn nach dem Maß, mit dem ihr messt, wird auch euch zugemessen werden.

In today's episode, we introduce a new segment of the show: Stuck Stories, where you'll hear stories from people who have made the journey from stuck to unstuck—and all of the lessons they learned along the way.We're kicking things off with Katie Mantel. During the COVID pandemic, Katie realized she was feeling stuck in her teaching career. But after 13 years as a teacher, she didn't know what other kind of job was out there for her—and taking a step into the unknown felt scary. But she did take a step…then another…then another.

La iglesia era muy antigua; su pastor, muy joven. Había sido una de las iglesias más bellas en su apariencia externa; ahora estaba en decadencia. Pero el pastor y su joven esposa creían que con pintura, con un martillo y con fe podrían restaurarla a su gloria pasada. Así que se pusieron a trabajar. Para colmo de males, una tormenta azotó aquella región, y la iglesia no escapó a su furia. Un enorme pedazo de revoque mojado se desprendió de la pared interior detrás del altar. El pastor y su esposa barrieron el piso, pero no pudieron ocultar la antiestética irregularidad en la pared. —¡Faltan sólo dos días para la Nochebuena! —exclamó la esposa del pastor. Esa tarde la desanimada pareja asistió a una subasta en beneficio de un grupo de jóvenes. El subastador abrió una caja y sacó de allí un hermoso mantel de encaje de oro y de marfil, que tenía cinco metros de largo. Pocos hicieron ofertas por el mantel debido a lo poco práctico y anticuado que era. Pero de pronto el pastor tuvo una idea. Ofreció sólo seis dólares con cincuenta centavos e hizo suyo el magnífico mantel. De vuelta a la iglesia, sujetó el mantel a la pared detrás del altar, logrando así tapar por completo el hueco antiestético. Al mediodía de la Nochebuena, mientras abría la iglesia notó a una mujer pasando frío en el paradero de autobuses, así que alzó la voz y le dijo: —El próximo autobús se demora otros cuarenta minutos, señora. ¿Por qué no entra a la iglesia un rato y aprovecha nuestro sistema de calefacción? La mujer aceptó su atenta invitación y le contó que había viajado desde la ciudad esa mañana a ver si conseguía el puesto de niñera de una familia rica del pueblo, pero no la habían aceptado. Cuando el pastor se levantó para arreglar el mantel en la pared, la mujer clavó los ojos en el fino encaje de oro y de marfil. Luego se acercó y lo frotó con los dedos. —¡Es mío! —exclamó—. ¡Este es mi mantel para banquetes! Y se lo comprobó al asombrado pastor mostrándole sus iniciales bordadas con monograma. —Mi esposo me lo mandó a hacer en Bruselas. ¡No hay otro igual! Dicho esto, la emocionada mujer le contó al pastor que ella era vienesa, que junto con su esposo se había opuesto a los nazis de Alemania y se les había aconsejado que abandonaran el país por separado. Fue así como su esposo la embarcó en un tren que iba para Suiza. Tan pronto como pudiera, él se reuniría con ella... pero jamás volvieron a verse. Posteriormente le informaron que él había muerto en un campo de concentración. El pastor procuró consolarla e insistió en que se llevara el mantel, pero ella rechazó la oferta y se fue. Esa noche, después de la reunión, el relojero del pueblo se le acercó y le dijo extrañado que ese mantel era idéntico a uno que él le había mandado a hacer a su esposa en Viena. Cuando el pastor le contó lo sucedido al mediodía, el hombre exclamó: —¡No lo puedo creer! ¡Mi esposa aún vive! Con la ayuda de la familia rica que había entrevistado a la mujer, lograron ponerse en contacto con ella y salieron de inmediato a su encuentro. Esa noche realmente fue buena, pues fue testigo de un reencuentro extraordinario, tal como lo fue la primera Nochebuena, que presenció el trascendental reencuentro entre Dios y la humanidad perdida.
