  • Of All Things (Summarized Edition)

    Enriched edition. Humorous essays from early 20th-century America—witty observations, American humor, social satire, and unique wordplay in a light, episodic romp

    de Robert Benchley, Harriet Gainsborough, Isabella Murray ...
    Of All Things gathers Robert Benchley's early-1920s magazine pieces into a miscellany of urbane miniatures: mock instruction manuals, sham field reports, and domestic autopsies that anatomize the petty crises of modern life—telephones, timetables, social calls, and the terror of being thought insufficiently informed. Benchley's prose is a model of deadpan precision, balancing flippant hyperbole ... Leer más

    Enriched edition. Sacrifice and redemption amid the French Revolution, love, ambition, political upheaval, and the London-Paris divide.

    de Charles Dickens, Isabella Murray, Isabella Murray ...
    A Tale of Two Cities moves between London and Paris through the French Revolution, entwining Lucie Manette, Charles Darnay, and the dissipated yet redeemable Sydney Carton. Dickens fuses melodrama with the measured architecture of the historical novel, developing motifs of doubling, resurrection, and inexorable "footsteps." This unabridged edition restores Phiz's original plates, whose chiaroscuro ... Leer más

    Persons and Places: The Background of My Life inaugurates Santayana's autobiography with vivid scenes from Madrid childhood, Boston schooling, Harvard salons, and early European travel.

    de Alfred Percy Sinnett, Isabella Murray, Isabella Murray ...

    de Arthur comte de Gobineau, Isabella Murray, Isabella Murray ...
    Traducido por Adrian Collins ...
    Published in 1853–55, The Inequality of Human Races is a sweeping treatise that blends speculative history, philology, and then‑nascent ethnology to claim that civilizations rise and fall by supposed racial hierarchies. Gobineau arranges four books advancing an 'Aryan' primacy and warning against 'degeneration' through mixture, in patrician, aphoristic prose that echoes Montesquieu while borrowing ... Leer más
