Charisma is one of the most powerful tools of influence. Throughout history, charismatic individuals have captivated audiences, inspired movements, and shaped the course of events. Whether in politics, business, entertainment, or everyday life, people with magnetic personalities often seem to have an almost hypnotic effect on others. But what exactly gives someone charisma, and why is it so effective? At its core, charisma is a blend of confidence, charm, and emotional intelligence. It is not just about good looks or eloquent speech, though those can play a role. Instead, true charisma lies in the ability to make others feel special, understood, and valued. Charismatic individuals have an innate or developed talent for reading people and adjusting their approach accordingly. They know when to listen, when to speak, and how to convey messages in ways that resonate deeply with their audience. The psychological impact of charisma is profound. People are naturally drawn to those who exude confidence and warmth. Studies in social psychology suggest that individuals with charismatic traits are often perceived as more competent, trustworthy, and even more likable, regardless of their actual abilities or intentions. This perception creates a halo effect, where one positive trait overshadows potential flaws or red flags.Zum Buch
“Without music, life would be a mistake.”“It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.” ...“That which does not kill us makes us stronger.”“I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.” Nietzsche The philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's autobiography, Ecce Homo, was the last prose work that he wrote before his illness in 1889. Coming at the end of an extraordinarily productive year in which he had produced The Twilight of the Idols and The Antichrist, Nietzsche shuns any pretense at modesty with chapter titles include “Why I am so Wise”, “Why I am so Clever” and “Why I Write Such Excellent Books”. His translator Anthony M. Ludovici states, Ecce Homo “is not only a coping-stone worthy of the wonderful creations of that year, but also a fitting conclusion to his whole life, in the form of a grand summing up of his character as a man, his purpose as a reformer, and his achievement as a thinker. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher, cultural critic and philologist whose work has exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history. He began his career as a classical philologist before turning to philosophy.Zum Buch
In the past few years, the evolving global landscape has drawn increasing attention to the positioning of African countries on major international issues. Much emphasis has been placed on African voting and diplomatic stances in international fora, political rhetoric and protests, all seemingly pointing to a shift towards a more critical approach vis à vis traditional Western partners. At the same time, non-alignment, a notion that for some retained a merely historical value, has gained new impetus as a principle guiding a number of countries of the Global South, suggesting a break in the relationship with old and new partners. This report investigates the nature and reasons of the growing anti-Western sentiment in sub Saharan Africa, combining an analysis of the current international context with a look at the long term. Is the gap between Africa and the West really expanding? What are the reasons and the possible consequences? What can be done to turn criticism into a more profound, mutual understanding?Zum Buch

Since the dawn of civilization, storytelling has been an essential part of human culture. Long before written language, myths and legends were passed down through generations, shaping societies, preserving history, and explaining the mysteries of the world. These tales, often woven with elements of the supernatural, serve not only as entertainment but also as a means of teaching values, reinforcing traditions, and connecting people to their heritage. Whether told around a fire, painted on cave walls, or transcribed into sacred texts, myths and legends offer profound insights into the beliefs and customs of different cultures. One of the most remarkable aspects of folklore is its universality. While each culture has its own unique stories, striking similarities emerge when comparing myths from different parts of the world. Themes of creation, heroism, trickery, love, and the afterlife appear across civilizations, suggesting a shared human experience. The flood myth, for example, exists in various forms in Mesopotamian, biblical, Hindu, and Indigenous traditions, each with its own interpretation but conveying a common theme of destruction and renewal. These recurring motifs highlight how storytelling transcends time and geography, reinforcing the idea that despite cultural differences, people everywhere grapple with similar questions about existence, morality, and destiny. Myths and legends also serve as powerful tools for shaping identity and societal values. Many of history’s greatest civilizations—Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and Chinese, among others—built their cultural foundations upon stories of gods, heroes, and mythical creatures. These tales not only provided explanations for natural phenomena but also established codes of behavior, demonstrating the rewards of courage, loyalty, and wisdom while warning against greed, deceit, and hubris.Zum Buch
