Background
Tout au long de sa vie, Kathleen Mills a fui beaucoup de choses, particulièrement l'amour. Après des années de galère à subir les violences du père de sa fille, la jeune femme décide de partir avec ses deux enfants pour une nouvelle vie. Cependant, rien ne se passe comme elle l'avait espéré et cela commence avec la rencontre du mystérieux John Stark qu'elle sauve suite à un accident de la route. Sans savoir que cet homme est très important, elle va se lier d'amitié avec lui avant de comprendre qu'elle éprouve des sentiments pour lui. C'est là que les complications s'accumulent, brisant ainsi les rêves de cette petite famille soudée qui désire juste vivre en paix. Evidemment, elle ne se serait jamais doutée que le pouvoir de l'homme qu'elle aime puisse ramener les démons de son passé dans sa vie. Et pourtant... John est le président des Etats-Unis.

The Philosophical Background to Friedrich Schiller's Aesthetics of Living Form
Schiller defined the object of beauty as "living form." He explicitly related his thesis to a rationalistic aesthetics of form and to an empiricistic aesthetics of life. First the problem of aesthetic theorizing is treated. In the light of this discussion, respectively, the aesthetics of life, form, and living form are analyzed. First the respective ontological universe of each aesthetic theory is developed, then the aesthetic universe in terms of ontological commitments, and finally the specific interpretation of beauty is outlined.

Performance post-crise
Today's professional environment is dramatically different from that which existed just twenty years ago. The digital revolution is in full swing, and working practices are undergoing some of the biggest changes in history. In addition to this background of change, COVID 19 has had an unprecedented impact on every aspect of modern professional life. This background of change, combined with an additional sudden shock is generating novel challenges, which present difficult questions. What organisational structure is best placed to handle crises such as this ? What are the ingredients of successful remote work ? What is the best way to manage a team remotely ? How should leaders communicate in a crisis ? Beyond these critical issues—and perhaps even more importantly—leaders also need to prepare for the future. How do they ensure the success of an organisation in an uncertain future ? How are they going to secure the talent they need ? To address these questions, this collection brings together contributors from a rich variety of backgrounds, drawing on many combined decades of leadership experience. In addition to sharing answers to many contemporary questions and their personal experience of the recent crisis, they outline their vision of the future of the world of work.

Traditional artistic concepts and ideologies, carried over into the new environment, reveal problems of form and content which are treated in detail through individual analysis.

The various methods and degrees of the built-in novelists' attempts to transform autobiographical experience into fiction are surveyed and followed by a discussion of the validity of mimetic presuppositions about fiction. The alternatives to realism are then discussed against the background of recent narratological theories.
