"Deeply moving, brilliant, and powerful." U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. In October 1942, Esther Terner Raab and 300 other Jews escaped from Sobibor, a Nazi death camp in eastern Poland. It was the biggest escape of World War II and the subject of Richard Rashke's book, Escape from Sobibor. The book, and the movie based on it, brought Esther many invitations to speak in public schools. The chronicle of her journey from ghetto to death camp to freedom generated hundreds of letters from children expressing their love, concern, and outrage. Those letters became the inspiration for Dear Esther. As it dissects the soul of a survivor, this moving play explores the issues of death, belief in God, revenge, hatred, justice, luck, guilt, and memory. But, although Dear Esther deals with pain and suffering, it is ultimately about hope and healing-for Esther and for everyone who confronts the tragedy of man's inhumanity to man.

The television series LOST initiated a wide-ranging academic debate which centered on its narrative and temporal complexity, while also addressing the massive expansion into other media and consequently crossing established genre categories. This expansion poses the essential question about the status of the original medium (television) within recent multiple media configurations. Can LOST be regarded as a symptom of television in the process of media change? What is the relation between LOST's temporality and that of television in general? And how can LOST be understood as a phenomenon of mediatized worlds? The contributions in this book examine these questions. The book's editors are members of the project "TV Series as Reflection and Projection of Change," which is part of the DFG Priority Program 1505: "Mediatized Worlds". (Series: Medien'welten.

"Game Feel" exposes "feel" as a hidden language in game design that no one has fully articulated yet. The language could be compared to the building blocks of music (time signatures, chord progressions, verse) - no matter the instruments, style or time period - these building blocks come into play.
