Ein Wettstreit unter den Vögeln soll entscheiden, wer am höchsten fliegen kann. Der Adler mit seinen mächtigen Schwingen scheint Sieger zu werden. Doch etwas Überraschendes geschieht ...

British naturalist Jane Goodall provides an intimate portrait of a group of chimpanzees in the jungles of Africa which she has studied for many years.

* The first study of the intricate parallels between the heretical dramaturgy of Antonin Artaud (1896-1948) and the heresies of ancient Gnosticism. Artaud has been mythologized by influential post-structuralist critics as an icon of failure and madness, overlooking the self-mythologizing which permeates his vast oeuvre. This book uses ''heresy'' rather than ''madness'' to designate the impassioned thought processes which escape the terms oforthodox Western epistemology, and situates Artaud, as the most extravagant of heretics, in company with the Gnostics whose speculations served to define heresy in the beginnings of the Christian tradition. Assessing the implications for contemporary criticism, Jane Goodall argues that the neglectof these elements of Artaud''s work by recent theorists signals post-structuralism''s anxiety towards the powerful assault upon the founding tenets of Western thought presented in Gnostic drama.
