Dear friends and colleagues,
We are delighted to present to you our new rights list for Spring 2016 and would like to invite
you to find out more about the latest titles as well as strong backlist titles of our imprints
Patmos – Thorbecke – Grünewald – Eschbach – Schwaben
Our list offers a wide range of titles, covering psychology, self-help, memoirs, parenting, spirituality, religion and theology, as well as gift books and children’s books. While we have a rich
tradition in publishing religious children’s books, we have recently ventured into publishing
general children’s books, including fiction, encouraging children to become more aware of values and what really matters in life.
Our imprint Thorbecke specializes in books on cookery, lifestyle and gardening, on the one
hand, as well as books on history and cultural history, on the other hand.
To find out more about our authors and titles, please visit our foreign rights website at
www.verlagsgruppe-patmos.de/foreign_rights.php. A click on the logo of the respective imprint on the right-hand side will take you to the specific rights section of each imprint, for
example, www.patmos.de/foreign_rights.php for titles published by our imprint Patmos.
Using the navigation bar on the left-hand side, you can select individual titles from different
categories. You will then be able to view English summaries, key selling points, up-to-date
information on rights sold as well as biographies of our authors, illustrators and photographers.
Also, there are information sheets, synopses and sample translations available for download.
A detailed search function will help you find the information you need even faster!
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like to receive advance materials, reading copies
or any further information on our titles and upcoming co-editions.
We would also be delighted to discuss our list with you at the London Book Fair (table 4N10K
in the NEP area). Please don’t hesitate to contact us to arrange a meeting.
We look forward to hearing from you!
With best wishes,

“The beating had stopped. I cowered in the small tub. My mother sat in
front of me and cried as she massaged her swollen hands
hands.””
For years, Ann Helena Neudek was beaten and humiliated by her parents. From the outside they seemed to be a well-to-do, storybook family,
but behind the facade violence and fear reigned. Depression and suicidal
thoughts accompanied her into adulthood.
In this very personal and poetic book, Ann Helena Neudek delves into
the horrors of her childhood, which still overwhelm her like a bolt of
lightning at times. Therapy, love for her husband, and the power of words
are helping her let go of all the trauma and trust in life. The story of her
journey into her past inspires us to have courage, trust ourselves, and find
our way to life.

Silence at the breakfast table, only the bare minimum iss dison is
cussed, frustrated withdrawal – a lack of communication
tners
especially common in long-term relationships. The partners
have nothing more to say to each other, the emotional connection suffers and that leads to more silence.
Jo Eckardt demonstrates how this vicious circle can be broes for
ken. It is not just a matter of providing general guidelines
oanacommunication, according to this experienced psychoanalyst. Instead, her book provides practical instructions for how
ersacouples can become closer again through intensive conversaings,
tions. Focused questionnaires on topics such as hurt feelings,
needs, intimacy, money and power open up a space for partners to interact at a deep level and get to know each other

““Where
Wh
h
there is light, there is also shadow”
The same is true of the human personality. We present certain aspects of ourselves in
dayl
daylight, while other aspects are suppressed in our subconscious. The shadows are that
whic
which a person does not want to be, but nonetheless is. cIn this classic book on the Jungian concept of shadows, the renowned Jungian analyst and psychotherapist Verena
Kast demonstrates that when we are ready to take responsibility for our dark side, the
shad
shadows become a source of power that makes us more human and more vital.

There’s no doubt about it: everyone is getting older. The sometimes difficult changes that come along with the aging process provide lots of new
challenges to master. We have to learn to be flexible in responding to situations over which we have little or no control.
Verena Kast, in her early 70s herself, demonstrates that in our older years,
more than ever, it is important to accept the surprises life brings our way –
including delightful ones – and deal with them in creative ways. How to go
about this is what the renowned Jungian analyst describes in this new book.
Verena Kast is a former Professor of
Psychology at the University of Zurich,
Switzerland. Today she is a lecturer and
teaching analyst at the C. G. Jung Institute
in Zurich, as well as a psychoanalyst in private practice. She has published numerous
books on subjects including emotional
psychology, principles of psychotherapy,
and the interpretation of fairy tales and
dreams. Her works – many of them
long-sellers – have been translated into numerous languages. For further information, please visit the author’s website at

What do a biologist and an astrophysicist find equally astonishing? In this
case, it is an unassuming blue flower. Sparked by their fascination with the
grape hyacinth, the two scientists become conscious of the sources of their
awe – and in the process are continuously astonished.
With humor and an eye for detail, the scientists explain the development
from the Big Bang to a small flower to the complexities of the brain in an
impressive overview. In the process, they make themselves and their readers aware of evolutionary processes and just happen to simultaneously celebrate the miracle of life. This is a fascinating book about amazement that
will inspire awe in you, too.

Beginning with the pope’s life, Paul M. Zulehner demonstrates his core concerns:
his commitment to a Church of the poor and a new culture of interaction within the

For months, refugees have been coming to us in huge numbers
numbers: women,
men, young children. That generates emotions in the populace th
that run in
very different directions. Some feel anger, others worry, and yet others are
optimistic. Those who are angry tend to be defensive, while the optimists
are ready to pitch in and help. They can be found volunteering at train stations, working alongside civic organizations and church congregations.
But how is it that some are defensive while others get involved, some attack
and others help? A recent survey demonstrates that the difference has to do
with each individual’s personality structure. It is a person’s fears that prompt
that defensiveness or helpfulness.
In this timely interjection, Paul M. Zulehner explores the origins of these
fears as well as possible ways to overcome them.

On October 31st 2016, Pope Francis and top representatives of
o the Lutheran World Federation will lead the ecumenical commemoration ceremony in Lund, Sweden (place of foundation of the Lutheran World Federation) on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of Reformation. “Many
Christians are rightly expecting that remembrance of 500 years of Reformation will bring us one step forward ecumenically to reaching the goal of
unity. We must not disappoint those expectations.” With these words Walter Cardinal Kasper starts his essay on Martin Luther and coming from the
German-born Cardinal, such words are a clear signal.
Walter Cardinal Kasper, born in
1933, doctorate and professor of dogmatic
theology, 1989-1999 Bishop of the diocese
Rottenburg-Stuttgart, 2001–2010 President of the Pontifical Council for the Promotion of Christian Unity.
In this volume, the President Emeritus of the Pontifical Council for the
Promotion of Christian Unity frees Luther from preconceived opinions of
past and present Luther anniversaries: Luther, his world and his message
are at first strangers in the contemporary time. The exposure of “ Luther as
a stranger” leads to an ecumenical surprise: “The reason, why Luther and
his message are strangers to us, paradoxically points to his significance for
ecumenical efforts today.” Kasper´s thesis develops and culminates into a
committed plea, expressed in the last chapter´s headline: For an “ecumenism of mercy”.
This book derives from a highly respected discourse, held by the author at
Humboldt University in Berlin in 2016.

You had to have seen the man to understand our gullibility – that’s how contemporaries said about the Count of Saint Germain, who claimed to possess many secrets. How
did this man manage to create such a career out of thin air? Thomas Freller unpacks
the image of an epoch that was splendid and curious, but simultaneously deeply uncertain, greedy for new saviors and self-declared wise men and scholars, who were
both praised to the heavens and persecuted as charlatans.
