Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Life is a vexatious trap; when a thinking man reaches maturity and attains to full consciousness he cannot help feeling that he is in a trap from which there is no escape."Ward No. Six (1892) Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) was a Russian physician, dramaturge and author who is often referred to as one of the seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre.

Download or read book Michael Rostovtzeff Historian in Exile written by Marinus Antony Wes and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 1990 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Es handelt sich um den ersten Versuch, den Standort des fuhrenden Althistorikers Michael Rostovtzeff in den Jahren 1917-1941 anhand bisher unbekannter und unveroffentlichter russischer Archivalien, Briefe usw. aufzuzeigen. Nach einem einleitenden Uberblick uber die russische Welt in den Jahren ca. 1855-1915, in der der junge Rostovtzeff 1870 geboren wurde und aufwuchs, konzentriert sich die Untersuchung auf drei Themen: die Rekonstruktion des russisch-amerikanischen Personennetzwerkes, zu dem Rostovtzeff gehorte; die Frage, wie dieses Netzwerk es Rostovtzeff ermoglicht hat, fur sich selbst und fur andere Verbannte und Fluchtlinge ein neues Leben in den Vereinigten Staaten aufzubauen; die Frage, wie die Niederlage der russischen liberal-demokratischen Intelligenz in Rostovtzeffs Interpretation der Geschichte Roms ihren Niederschlag gefunden hat. (Franz Steiner 1990)
Download or read book Auntie Poldi and the Sicilian Lions written by Mario Giordano and published by John Murray. This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Alive with a tang of lemons to set the senses zinging' The Spectator Fiction at its most charming - A Man Called Ove meets Andrea Camilleri, Auntie Poldi is this summer's most unlikely hero. Auntie Poldi can think of no finer place to wait for death than Sicily. All she asks is a sea view, fine wine (and plenty of it), and her family close around. When death instead takes her handsome young friend Valentino - and under mysterious circumstances at that - Poldi will not take it lying down. Perhaps it's in her blood (her father was a detective chief inspector); perhaps it's a diverting excuse to spend more time with men in uniform; or perhaps it's just the promise she makes to Valentino while holding his poor dead hand. But Auntie Poldi's hunting instincts have never felt more alive. Justice must be served - if it's the last thing she does . . . Auntie Poldi and the Fruits of the Lord, the second Auntie Poldi adventure, is out now!

Download or read book The Straw Sandal written by Kyōden Santō and published by Global Oriental. This book was released on 2008-01-31 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carmen Blacker’s spirited translation of Santo Kyoden’s Mukashi-banashi inazuma byooshi (from which the title ‘The Straw Sandal’ is taken), considered by Aston to be his masterpiece, reveals a multi-layered and fascinating tale of revenge – Japanese-style, thereby providing a classic example of this popular genre within Japanese literature. Aston makes the point that the plot of this late-eighteenth-century novel, developed over twenty chapters or episodes, is so complicated that ‘it is impossible to give an adequate summary...’ But he goes on to promise several murders, a harakiri and other suicides, terrific combats, hairbreadth escapes, strange meetings and surprising recognitions. In addition, there are scenes of witchcraft and enchantment with dreams, magic terrors and ghosts who rove by night. The Straw Sandal, which contains most of the original black and white woodblock prints together with textual notes added by the translator, will surely be widely welcomed both in the world of literature as well as that of Japanese Studies.
Download or read book Correspondence of Erasmus written by Desiderius Erasmus and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1980-12-01 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume covers a number of significant events and issues in Erasmus' life and in the history of his times. He travels on horseback from Louvain to Basel to assist his publisher and friend Johann Froben during the crucial phases in the production of his revised New Testament, the edition that he feels will be his lasting contribution to the scholarly foundations of the Christian faith. Once it is in the hands of the public he feels he will be able to face the approach of old age more calmly. On the return journey to Louvain he falls gravely ill from what is diagnosed as bubonic plague, but recovers in a month and convalesces in the home of another publisher-friend, Dirk Martens. International politics continue to capture his attention. Requests for funds in support of a papal crusade against the Turks arouse the flames of German national sentiment. With the death of Maximilian I, friends of Erasmus such as Richard Pace, Ulrich von Hutten, and Guillaume Budé are involved in diplomatic negotiations concerning the imperial succession. When Prince Ferdinand arrives from Spain and requires a tutor, the question of Eramus' own return to active court duties is raised. After the appearance of Luther's Ninety-five Theses on indulgences, purgatory, and papal authority, the question arises among conservatives whether Erasmus' work too is a threat to the traditional ways of the church and society. For the time being, Erasmus is prepared to commend Luther and defend the latter's right to be critical of the church. Erasmus' overriding conviction at this point is that he and Luther are both part of the great intellectual and spiritual renewal that is taking place in so many parts of Europe. As Luther's appearance lends a new kind if spiritual and patriotic vigour to German humanism, the cult of ErasmusErasmus the fellow Germanbecomes an integral part of that new enthusiasm, with Saxony and its elector, Frederick the Wise, at its center.
