Else Lasker-Sch ler (1869-1945) was born into an affluent German Jewish family. Following the death of her parents and the dissolution of her marriage, the fledgling poet became notorious in the fashionable caf s of Berlin for appearing in costume as a Persian girl or as an Egyptian boy. Her flamboyance was echoed in her poetry, which combined the sexual with the religious in its exploration of the ecstatic experience. Critics have long dismissed her poetry as decadent in its romantic use of references to moonlight, flowers, and woodland creatures. In his introduction, Haxton addresses such criticism by arguing that what others have termed kitsch and clich in Lasker-Sch ler's poetry may be understood more fully as a kind of iconoclasm, like that of her Expressionist contemporaries, and as an authentic expression of emotional tenderness. Her poetry also resonates with the cultural moment of Sarah Bernhardt's gender-bending stage performances and Freud's sexual interpretations of the subconscious.

The poems collected in this bilingual volume represent the full range of Lasker-Sch ler's work, from her earliest poems until her death. Haxton's translation embraces the poems' lyrical imagery, remaining faithful to the poet's vision while also capturing the cadence and rhythms of the poetry.

Excellent Can Opener – Safe, Effortless, and Smartly Designed!
I’m so impressed with this electric can opener! From the moment I took it out of the box, it was incredibly easy to use—just one touch and it does all the work for you. What really sets it apart is how it opens cans with a smooth edge, so there's absolutely no worry about scratching yourself or dealing with sharp, jagged lids. That’s a huge relief, especially for someone like me who cooks often and has had accidents with traditional openers in the past. The design is compact and sleek, making it easy to store in a drawer, and it feels solid and well-made in the hand. It’s also surprisingly quiet while running. I’ve used it on all types of cans, and it works like a charm every time. Honestly, I didn’t expect to love a can opener this much, but it makes such a difference in the kitchen. If you're thinking about getting one, this is 100% worth it!

Effortless Can Opening – A Game Changer in the Kitchen!
I absolutely love this Automatic Electric Can Opener! It makes opening cans so much easier and completely hands-free. No more struggling with manual openers or sharp edges—this gadget does all the work for you with just the push of a button. The smooth edge cutting is a huge plus because it keeps my family safe from accidental cuts. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and works perfectly with just a couple of batteries. I especially appreciate it when I’m multitasking in the kitchen because it saves so much time and effort. Honestly, it’s a must-have tool for anyone who cooks regularly, and it would be a great gift for seniors or anyone with hand pain or arthritis. Highly recommend—it has truly made my kitchen life easier!
