Download or read book The Parisian Prowler written by Charles Baudelaire and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Edouard Manet to T. S. Eliot to Jim Morrison, the reach of Charles Baudelaire's influence is beyond estimation. In this prize-winning translation of his no-longer-neglected masterpiece, Baudelaire offers a singular view of 1850s Paris. Evoking a mélange of reactions, these fifty "fables of modern life" take us on various tours led by a flâneur, an incognito stroller. Through day and night, in gleaming cafés and filthy side streets, this alienated yet compassionate esthete muses on the bizarre in the commonplace, the sublime in the mundane. As the work reveals a teeming metropolis on the eve of great change, we see a Paris as contradictory, surprising, and ultimately unknowable as our guide himself. Superbly complemented by twenty-one period illustrations by Delacroix, Callot, Manet, Whistler, Baudelaire himself, and others, The Parisian Prowler is an essential companion to Les Fleurs du Mal and other works by the father of modern poetry. In the preface to this edition, translator Edward K. Kaplan explains how the volume's illustrations act as a graphic subtext to the narrator's observations.
Download or read book The Night Prowler written by Chad Nicholas Combs and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-01-20 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I just loved to kill people. I love to watch them die. I would shoot them in the head and they would wiggle and squirm all over the place, and then just stop. Or I would cut them with a knife and watch their faces turn real white. I love all that blood.” said serial killer Richard Ramirez in 1985. The killings began on June 28, 1984, when Richard Ramirez slit the throat of a 79-year-old woman, Jennie Vincow, during a burglary. They ended when an angry mob, recognizing him from his mug shot released to the news media, beat him and held him until the police arrived to make an arrest on Aug. 31, 1985. Richard Ramirez – or better known as 'the Night Stalker' – was born in El Paso, Texas, into a less than normal family life; his father, a former Santa Fe railroad worker and peeping tom, was prone to temper tantrums and bouts of extreme physical violence. His cousin Mike, a Vietnam veteran, had taken pride in killing and raping the enemy – and taught Richard all he knew about his 'craft.' At age twenty five, Richard Ramirez's skin and muscle were crafted rock. His face, once uncommonly handsome for a young man who'd undergone such horrors, now appeared to have been carved out of granite. Murderous – robotic, systematically programmed to do what he was told, regardless of the repercussions, he had forgotten anything and everything he ever wanted; he had been convinced he already had everything he would ever need: Satan as his mentor and savior – and the thirst for blood. In THE NIGHT PROWLER: THE RICHARD RAMIREZ STORY, author Chad Nicholas Combs offers an insight into ritual abuse and it's terrifying repercussions – creating a monster. Bonus material: an in depth interview with Richard Ramirez conducted in 1989 but never published in book form until now.
