Book excerpt: Excerpt from Caesar Cascabel "Has nobody got any more coppers to give me? Come, children, search your pockets!" "Here you are, father!" replied the little girl. And she drew out of her pocket a square-cut piece of greenish paper, all crumpled and greasy. This paper bore the almost illegible inscription "United States Fractional Currency," encircling the respectable-looking head of a gentleman in a frock-coat, and likewise the figure 10 repeated six times, - which represented ten cents, say about ten French sous. "How did you come by that?" inquired the mother. "It's the remnant of the takings at the last performance," answered Napoleona. "Gave me everything, Sander?" "Yes, father." "Nothing left, John?" "Nothing." "Why, how much more do you want, Caesar?" asked Cornelia of her husband. "Two cents is all we want to make up a round sum," replied Cascabel.

Download or read book The Begum s Millions written by Jules Verne and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-19 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Verne's first cautionary tale about the dangers of science — first modern and corrected English translation. When two European scientists unexpectedly inherit an Indian rajah's fortune, each builds an experimental city of his dreams in the wilds of the American Northwest. France-Ville is a harmonious urban community devoted to health and hygiene, the specialty of its French founder, Dr. François Sarrasin. Stahlstadt, or City of Steel, is a fortress-like factory town devoted to the manufacture of high-tech weapons of war. Its German creator, the fanatically pro-Aryan Herr Schultze, is Verne's first truly evil scientist. In his quest for world domination and racial supremacy, Schultze decides to showcase his deadly wares by destroying France-Ville and all its inhabitants. Both prescient and cautionary, The Begum's Millions is a masterpiece of scientific and political speculation and constitutes one of the earliest technological utopia/dystopias in Western literature. This Wesleyan edition features notes, appendices, and a critical introduction as well as all the illustrations from the original French edition.

Book excerpt: Dieses eBook wurde mit einem funktionalen Layout erstellt und sorgfältig formatiert. Die Ausgabe ist mit interaktiven Inhalt und Begleitinformationen versehen, einfach zu navigieren und gut gegliedert. Cäsar Cascabel zieht als Artist schon seit vielen Jahren durch die USA. Seine Truppe, die aus Gauklern und Artisten besteht, setzt sich vor allem aus Angehörigen seiner Familie (Ehefrau Cornelia, die Söhne Jean und Xander, die Tochter Napoleone) zusammen. Cäsar kommt zu dem Entschluss, dass es an der Zeit ist mit seiner Familie in seinem Jahrmarktswagen in seine französische Heimat zurückzukehren. Er muss auch seine Ersparnisse sicher transportieren. Zu diesem Zweck verwendet er eine schwere Geldkassette. Diese weckt dann aber die Begehrlichkeit der angeheuerten Führer. Diese stehlen die Kassette und fliehen mit den Pferden. Das verhindert den ursprünglichen Reiseplan von Cäsar Cascabel, die USA zu durchqueren und in New York an Bord eines Transatlantikdampfers zu gehen. Cäsar Cascabel beschließt daraufhin einen ungewöhnlichen Weg nach Frankreich zu wählen. Jules Verne (1828-1905) war ein französischer Schriftsteller.

Download or read book Invasion of the Sea written by Jules Verne and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2007-03-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First English edition of a classic Verne novel. Jules Verne, celebrated French author of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea and Around the World in 80 Days, wrote over 60 novels collected in the popular series "Voyages Extraordinaires." A handful of these have never been translated into English, including Invasion of the Sea, written in 1904 when large-scale canal digging was very much a part of the political, economic, and military strategy of the world's imperial powers. Instead of linking two seas, as existing canals (the Suez and the Panama) did, Verne proposed a canal that would create a sea in the heart of the Sahara Desert. The story raises a host of concerns — environmental, cultural, and political. The proposed sea threatens the nomadic way of life of those Islamic tribes living on the site, and they declare war. The ensuing struggle is finally resolved only by a cataclysmic natural event. This Wesleyan edition features notes, appendices and an introduction by Verne scholar Arthur B. Evans, as well as reproductions of the illustrations from the original French edition.
