<p>Ze względu na wyjątkową sytuację dziejową Węgier, węgierscy turkolodzy zawsze zwracali szczególną uwagę na zagadnienia ekspansjonizmu i ambicji politycznych Osmanów w Europie, przede wszystkim w Europie Środkowej. Ich zainteresowanie spowodowane jest dwoma zasadniczymi czynnikami. Po pierwsze, szukają oni odpowiedzi na jedno z fundamentalnych pytań w historii narodu węgierskiego: czy było nie do uniknięcia, by Węgry znalazły się (częściowo) pod osmańską okupacją i w ciągu kolejnych stuleci konfliktu zbrojnego cierpiały z powodu niepowetowanych zniszczeń? Po drugie – a jest to blisko związane z pierwszym pytaniem – starają się zrozumieć, dlaczego Imperium Osmańskie uporczywie atakowało Węgry przez z górą sto lat, by ostatecznie zająć je w początku XVI wieku.</p> <p> </p> <p>W ciągu ostatnich trzydziestu lat również i ja kilkakrotnie zajmowałem się tymi wzajemnie powiązanymi zagadnieniami. Pierwszym owocem moich badań była książka wydana po węgiersku w 1991 roku. Monografia ta składała się z dwóch dużych rozdziałów: Török politikai törekvések Magyarországon, 1520-1541 (Cele polityki osmańskiej na Węgrzech, 1520-1541) oraz Magyarország és Bécs az oszmán hódító ideológiában (Miejsce Węgier i Wiednia w osmańskiej ideologii podbojów). Pierwszy rozdział wydany został także po angielsku jeszcze w tym samym roku, a nieco później także po turecku, podczas gdy rozdział drugi – także jako odrębny artykuł – ukazał się jeszcze przed publikacją książki w języku niemieckim. W mniejszym lub większym stopniu teksty te zostały włączone do dyskursu osmanistycznego, aczkolwiek nie zawsze spotykały się ze sprawiedliwym traktowaniem (przykładowo, niektórzy turkolodzy cytowali opublikowane i przeanalizowane przeze mnie dokumenty jako nieznane źródła archiwalne).</p>

»Wie geht Selbstermächtigung? Lady Bitch Ray macht’s vor.« Dr. Svenja Flaßpöhler Reyhan Sahin – besser bekannt als Lady Bitch Ray – verkörpert eine ebenso einzigartige wie aufregende Position im feministischen Diskurs: Als promovierte Linguistin, provokante Rapperin und alevitische Muslimin spricht sie über weibliche Sexualität, den Islam und Antirassismus wie keine andere. Denn sie kennt sich mit Diskriminierung aus: als Frau im wissenschaftlichen Universitätsbetrieb, als türkisch-muslimische Alevitin, als Rapperin in der männlich dominierten Hip Hop-Szene. Sie steht für einen neuen Feminismus, der sich der eindimensionalen Fixierung auf die weiße westliche Frau entgegenstellt und sich für Selbstermächtigung und Entscheidungsfreiheit für alle Menschen einsetzt. In einer Sprache, in der sich Ghettoslang und wissenschaftliche Analyse unverschämt nahekommen, zeigt sie, wo in Sachen Gleichberechtigung die großen Diskrepanzen liegen. Lady Bitch Ray engagiert sich für Frauensolidarität, bricht mit Sex-Tabus und macht deutlich, dass sich Kopftuch, Modebewusstsein und Feminismus keineswegs ausschließen. »Durch mein früh ausgeprägtes Selbstbewusstsein und meine Stärke tat ich automatisch emanzipierte und feministische Dinge, indem ich mich wehrte und selbstbestimmt meinen eigenen Weg ging. Ich kam sozusagen über die Praxis zum Feminismus, nicht über die Theorie. Die las ich mir viel später an. Ich musste mich sozusagen aus Betroffenheit emanzipieren.«

<p>Mémoires d’Avenir retrace l’aventure de cinq sœurs bénédictines, envoyées de France en 1954 fonder un monastère au sein du peuple montagnard Êdê du Viêt Nam. En 1967, le monastère naissant transféra son implantation à Thủ Đức, près de Saïgon. Deux sœurs restèrent pour partager la vie des Montagnards. Aujourd’hui, à Ban Mê Thuôt, deux signes vivants témoignent de cette mission : le prieuré devenu évêché et un groupe de chrétiens.<br>C’est hors communauté que Sœur Colomban Françoise Demeure (1923-2021), une des fondatrices, a rédigé ces Mémoires entre 2001 et 2013, relatant cette fondation monastique au cœur des montagnards et de la guerre. En dialogue avec elle-même, elle interroge courriers, photographies, peintures, sœurs, témoins, ses propres souvenirs et sa vision contemporaine de la Mission. Le récit enfanté, bouleversant d’humanité, marqué de foi, d’espérance, de vérité et de questionnements, reflète pleinement l’esprit et les orientations de la Congrégation de Sainte Bathilde.<br><b><br></b><br>À PROPOS DE L’AUTRICE</p> <p><b>Françoise Demeure</b>-Sœur Colomban (1923-2021) est entrée dans la Congrégation des bénédictines missionnaires de Vanves en 1943. En 1954, elle est envoyée comme responsable d’une petite communauté de cinq sœurs à Ban Mê Thuôt (Viêt Nam) pour fonder un monastère au sein du peuple montagnard Êdê. Après son expulsion du Viêt Nam en septembre 1975, elle a continué à vivre tous ses engagements sur une ligne de crête radicale : « Rien que l’Évangile ». Alors que bien des combats ont trouvé écho dans sa vie – justice, dignité, respect, droit de l’Homme, amour –, toujours et partout son sourire accueillait et faisait croire à un possible. Elle a coécrit <i>Cambodge : Le sourire bâillonné (1996, avec Ly Heng</i><b>).</b><br></p>

Between June and July 2010, 64 games of football determined that Spain was the world's best team at the World Cup in South Africa. South Africans – and the world – celebrated a brilliantly hosted tournament where everything worked like clockwork and the stands were packed with vuvuzela-wielding fans. But the truth was not yet known. Behind this significant national achievement lay years of corporate skulduggery, crooked companies rigging tenders and match fixing involving the national team. As late as 2015 it was revealed that the tournament's very foundations were corrupt when evidence emerged that South Africa had encouraged FIFA to pay money to a bent official in the Caribbean to buy three votes in its favour. As Sepp Blatter's FIFA edifice crumbled, a web of transactions from New York to Trinidad and Tobago showed how money was diverted to allow South Africa's bid to host the tournament to succeed. In The Big Fix: How South Africa Stole the 2010 World Cup, Ray Hartley reveals the story of an epic national achievement and the people who undermined it in pursuit of their own interests. It is the real story of the 2010 World Cup.

Susannah Spurgeon was the wife of the famous Baptist preacher of the second half of the nineteenth-century, Charles Haddon Spurgeon. She was born Susannah Thompson in January, 1832. Her early years were spent in London, where she often accompanied her parents or elderly friends to the New Park Street Chapel. She was converted upon hearing a sermon at the old Poultry Chapel by Rev S. B. Bergne from Romans 10:8 'From that service I date the dawning of the true light in my soul'. But her initial joy was replaced by 'seasons of darkness, despondency, and doubt', and it was not until she was helped by the new, youthful, pastor of New Park Street Spurgeon that she found 'the peace and pardon [her] weary soul was longing for'. Her friendship with Spurgeon grew, and they were married in January 1856. Their twin sons, Charles Jr. and Thomas, were born in September, 1857. Susannah became a true partner in her husband's ministry. Spurgeon would call his 'wifey' to come and help him on Saturday afternoons. Together they would read commentaries and discuss the Scripture for the next day's sermon. If he was discouraged, she would read to him. She counselled women and girls in the church and assisted female candidates at baptismal services. Her activities were restricted at times when she became chronically ill in the late 1860s, and was often confined to her room, or visited Brighton for relief. In 1875, when she had proof-read the first volume of her husband's book Lectures to My Students, she expressed a desire to 'place it in the hands of every minister in England'and so began the ministry of her Book Fund. Within a year, over 3000 volumes of theological books had been distributed by the Fund; by the time of her death, over 200,000 volumes had been sent out. Today, the supplying of theological books free to ministers and missionaries continues through the Book Fund of the Banner of Truth Trust, modelled upon that started by Susannah Spurgeon. Susannah's work expanded to include other ministries, such as the Pastors' Aid Fund and the Westwood Clothing Society. In her remaining years, following Charles' death in 1892, she assisted Joseph Harrald in compiling C.H. Spurgeon's Autobiography and also wrote a number of devotional books, including Free Grace and Dying Love, published by the Trust (which volume contains a Life of Susannah Spurgeon by Charles Ray). She died in October, 1903, after a severe attack of pneumonia from which she never recovered.
