James Allen explored the power of thought in shaping personal capabilities and life's circumstances. Though he did not achieve great fame or fortune during his lifetime, his works continue to influence readers globally, notably impacting the New Thought movement. Allen's central thesis posits that our thoughts forge our character and destiny; noble thoughts lead to a noble person, while base thoughts result in misery. His writings offer a timeless message on the transformative potential of conscious thinking.
Allen's practical philosophy of successful living has awakened millions to the discovery and perception of the truth that "they themselves are makers of themselves". Building on the Bible verse. "As a man thinketh, so he is", Allen insists that it is within the power of each person to form his own character and create his own happiness. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.

Mehrsprachigkeit - Spracherwerb - Pädagogik - Psychologie - Politik - Literatur - Medien
»Jede Sprache schenkt mir einen anderen Freiraum«, schreibt der Dichter Said. Das vorliegende Buch erzählt von den Mühen und dem Lohn der Mehrsprachigkeit, von dem was ist, und dem, was sein könnte. Und es macht deutlich, dass es an der Zeit ist, sich von überkommenen Vorstellungen zu verabschieden: Einsprachigkeit ist kein »Normalfall«, kulturelle »Homogenität« eine im 19. Jahrhundert geborene Chimäre. Die Wirklichkeit ist und war schon immer komplexer. AutorInnen unterschiedlicher Fachrichtungen machen sich an die Erforschung der polyphonen Sprachlandschaften bei Kindern und Erwachsenen, in Politik und Gesellschaft, in der Literatur und den Medien.
