2024年春の仕事

ここへ来てようやく春らしい陽射しが注いでくるようになりました。それまで福岡では、気温は平年と変わらないものの、重い雲が垂れ込め、時折雨風が強くなる日が続いていて、気分も体調も落ち込むことが多かったので嬉しく思っています。学期の始まりの慌ただしさもようやくひと段落し、溜め込んだ仕事に少しずつ取り組んでいるところです。美学と哲学の講義にも、またこれらを深めるゼミにも熱心な学生がいて刺激を受けています。ゼミではエドワード・W・サイードの晩年の著作を読み始めました。彼が何を問い続けてきたのかを顧みることをつうじて、現在の厳しい状況を見通す思考の方途を探れればと思います。 3月8日に広島交響楽団の演奏会を聴くために訪れた広島にて さて、3月から4月の仕事についてご報告しておきたいと思います。まず、書評紙『週間読書人』の3月1日号に、郁文堂から昨年末に刊行されたヨアヒム・ゼング編／細見和之訳『ア…

Michael Kaiser x Fem reader

tw: mentions of abuse, sex, controlling, gaslighting i think

Clopp. Clopp. The raindrops fell on the window. The sun has already set, as you were packing your suitcase and sorting things into boxes.

Why did you agree to this? How could you agree to this? You can still leave. There's still some time before he comes home. You can make a run for it. You can quietly get on a bus, go to a random location and start a new life. Without him. Without any of this.

You stared at your carefully folded clothes in the suitcase. Then you looked around the seemingly empty room. The only things that were left were the mattress, the closet and the huge pile of personal belongings you had to go through in the next six hours. You glanced at the backpack you've already packed.

Your heart sank. You don't want to leave. You can't leave.

As you opened the bag the trigger of the night fell out.

Certificate of attainment of successful language exam.

language: German

level: b2

Goethe Institut Tokyo

Tears started to roll down your cheeks faster than ever. Your throat tightened as you gasped for air. You can't do this. No. It's impossible.

What's a Japanese girl to do in Germany of all places?

It was his demand. One day he just came home. Handed you a book with a phone number. Learn german. Make it quick. Get at least a b2 in four months. We're moving to Berlin.

You sobbed as the memories resurfaced. His blue eyes darting through you. His knuckles clenched as you stuttered your concerns out before he hit you for the first (but not the last)

Michael Kaiser. Football prodigy and toxic boyfriend.

Michael Kaiser the man who's ruining your life yet again. As you sobbed through the events of the past months you heard the front door creaking open.

He finished practice early.

"Liebe! Ich bin zu Hause angekommen! Liebe? Wo bist du?"

"Don't speak German, I beg of you" you started to sob even more. You heard his footsteps coming closer and closer before he entered the room.

"Oh Liebe... Are you sad about having to leave? It's going to be okay my. dear you speak German good. You'll be able to make it!" he tried to brush it off.

"No" you continued with the tears. "You're so cold with me. German sucks. I'm an Asian girl, not knowing shit about Europe. I'll have to marry you for a visa. I don't want to be there"

"Oh, Liebe.." he kneeled next to you. "You'll be okay. I understand it is hard to... Leave your home but I promise you'll love Berlin. It's similar... to Tokyo"

"Really?" your eyes sparked up.

"Of course! and don't forget that you can already speak so much German and your degree also uncommon and looked for in Germany."

"I-i understand but still... It's.. still scary"

"You'll be fine" he started to lose his temper.

"But... what if..."

"Shut the fuck up!" he suddenly yelled and shoved you before standing up. "Listen I can't listen to your sorry ass! Uuu, just a Japanese little girl, nobody fucking cares! You should've achieved a better level, you should've picked an actual degree so you wouldn't have to rely on me! So continue packing your shit! We're getting on that dang plane. Now if you excuse me. One of us here is actually earning money and paying all your expenses. And he'd like to have a shower before I show you mein Schwanz one last time in your fucked up country! Before we leave for the paradise. " he hurried off immediately.

Your sobs took up again as the incident of the wall of Berlin came to your head. You'll be trapped in the part of Berlin Michael wants you to see. The life he wants you to live. Saying no? Not an option.

Maybe it's going to work out. You thought.

Will it?

Top 5 Amazing Student Cities In Germany

Germany is a great place to study, but many students have been worried about choosing a city. Whether you’re looking for the best party scene, the most vibrant nightlife, or simply a safe place to live, choices are abundant in Germany. This post lists the top 5 amazing student cities in Germany where you will find everything that you could want or need for a student lifestyle.

Study in Berlin

Berlin, Germany’s capital and largest city, is without a doubt one of the best cities in the nation for international students. Even among the greatest cities in the world for international students to live and study is this one. Really, why not? Germany’s cultural and commercial hub, Berlin, offers a wealth of chances for enjoyable yet useful learning. Berlin also has many noteworthy historical depictions that might deepen your understanding of events you previously only knew from literature.

Germany’s academic and research capital is Berlin. Several internationally renowned higher education institutes are located in the city. The top three universities on the list are the 

Freie Universität Berlin, 

Humboldt- Universität Zu Berlin, and 

Technische Universität Berlin, 

All of which are renowned for offering a wide range of English-taught programs. Tuition-free education at the majority of Berlin’s universities is excellent news for any international student wishing to attend one of the city’s educational institutions. The high ratio of international students at Berlin’s institutions is another reason why you won’t feel out of place there.

Study in Frankfurt

Frankfurt, the multicultural capital of Germany, is regarded as having one of the greatest quality of life rankings worldwide. The city is regarded as Germany’s equivalent of economically robust cities like Singapore or Tokyo because of the concentration of business and tourism hubs that it has. Therefore, it is simple for international students to hunt for career or internship opportunities in this location.

Universities in Frankfurt will not disappoint when it comes to the quality of education they provide their students. A few of Frankfurt’s most prestigious universities are the 

Johann Wolfgang Goethe University, 

the University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt, 

the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management, and 

the University of Music and Performing Arts.

Frankfurt is the city to attend for international students who want to be in the thick of things. They must lead active lives in this city, combined with fun pursuits for a study-and-play lifestyle.

Study in Munich

Munich (or München), the third-largest city in Germany, is a top-ranked student city not only in Germany or Europe but also globally. Munich, which is in the center of Bavaria, stands out due to its elegant Bavarian architecture surrounded by vast parks, lovely gardens, and mountain ranges. Additionally, it is close to Austria and the Czech Republic, where you can visit if you need a break from school.

Munich’s universities consistently receive positive views from other organizations.. The city’s most prestigious universities which you may want to attend are 

the Technical University of Munich, 

The Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, 

 the Munich University of Applied Sciences

Students from non-German-speaking countries can enroll in a variety of English-taught programs at these universities. Low tuition costs and a sizable number of university scholarships are what Munich students may anticipate. International students, who make up 16% of the city’s overall population, are a popular choice for the city.

Study in Dresden

Dresden, known as the “Jewel Box of Germany,” is arguably the most stunning city in the whole of Europe. Because of its wonderful architecture that lines the city, Dresden, the capital of Saxony, draws both visitors and foreign students. It also boasts well-kept green spaces that make the city appear more lovely than it is. Although Dresden has a gorgeous face, she is more than that. In addition to being an important political, economical, cultural, and intellectual hub, the city attracted over 40,000 students to study in its academic institutions.

International students have the option of enrolling at the well-regarded Technische Universität Dresden in Germany. Dresden’s student population has access to upscale locales including the Neustadt, a hangout for students, and the Altstadt, which houses museums, libraries, and study facilities. You can always visit tourist attractions like the Zwinger Palace if you want to get some fresh air and see more of Dresden.

Study in Aachen

Students seeking a place to live in Germany frequently pass by the attractive city of Aachen in North Rhine-Westphalia, which has roots in an old Roman bath. Aachen, which is in the country’s westernmost region and borders Belgium and the Netherlands, has a lot of exciting characteristics to offer if you know which viewpoint to adopt. One reason is that Aachen should be your first choice when you want to live in a city that is at the forefront of innovation and technical growth while yet being drawn to its rich cultural traditions.

Aachen is home to several prestigious academic institutions. In actuality, one of the best universities in Germany is the Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule Aachen (RWTH Aachen University). The IDEA League, a grouping of the most esteemed technological colleges in Europe, includes it as a founding member. Another university that takes pride in its superior engineering science education is the FH Aachen University of Applied Sciences.

Therefore, Aachen should be your student city of choice if you are an international student seeking a professional degree in engineering, automotive, or industrial technology. Similarly, Aachen is the ideal study place for medical technologies. The Klinikum Aachen, the research and academic branch of the RWTH Aachen University, is one of Europe’s major medical institutions and is located in this city.

Germany has long been a popular destination for students, and there’s no shortage of great cities across the country. We hope you found this article on the top 5 favorite student cities in Germany helpful. For more information visit Jeduka.com

More than 20 countries’ cartooning communities represented at this year’s Festival

FEBRUARY 15, TORONTO: The Toronto Comic Arts Festival proudly announces its second round of Guest for the 2019 Festival, focusing on the international cartooning community! Building on TCAF’s history of cartooning and cultural exchanges, the 2019 Festival will be the most international yet, with more than 20 countries represented at the two-day exhibition on May 11 and 12, at Toronto Reference Library and surrounding neighbourhood.

Focusing on adult literary and popular works across genres including memoir, historical fiction, fantasy, and yes, even superheroes, these creators will help focus the eyes of the world on Canada, this May, with English- and French-Language translations of their greatest works available for North American readers.

As always, TCAF will also feature a number of programs during the week of the Festival and on the primary exhibition days, designed to highlight these international works and draw connections between stories the world over. Look for the full range of programming in late March, but do remember to save the date for TCAF’s special collaboration with the European Union National Institutes for Culture, which will take place at the Alliance Française Toronto on the evening of Thursday, May 9th.

Now, keep reading to be introduced to some of this year’s International Guests!
