Yo acuso

La carta abierta J'accuse (Yo acuso) del 13 de enero de 1898, logró reabrir un caso en el que el Capitán judío Alfred Dreyfus fue sentenciado a prisión por un delito que no cometió. Este libro agrupa artículos y cartas escritos por su autor a partir del caso Dreyfus. En 1894, los servicios de contraespionaje del Ministerio de la Guerra francés interceptan un documento dirigido al agregado militar alemán en París, en el que se menciona el anuncio del envío de informaciones concretas sobre las características del nuevo material de artillería francés. El riesgo de escándalo resulta más preocupante que la propia filtración; había, pues, que encontrar a un culpable. Se acusa al capitán Alfred Dreyfus, de treinta y cinco años, judío y alsaciano, de ser su autor. Dreyfus es arrestado, juzgado por un consejo de guerra y declarado culpable de alta traición.

Yeats's Mask - Yeats Annual No. 19

Yeats’s Mask, Yeats Annual No. 19 is a special issue in this renowned research-level series. Fashionable in the age of Wilde, the Mask changes shape until it emerges as Mask in the system of A Vision. Chronologically tracing the concept through Yeats’s plays and those poems written as ‘texts for exposition’ of his occult thought which flowers in A Vision itself (1925 and 1937), the volume also spotlights ‘The Mask before The Mask’ numerous plays including Cathleen Ni-Houlihan, The King’s Threshold, Calvary, The Words upon the Window-pane, A Full Moon in March and The Death of Cuchulain. There are excurses into studies of Yeats’s friendship with the Oxford don and cleric, William Force Stead, his radio broadcasts, the Chinese contexts for his writing of ‘Lapis Lazuli’. His self-renewal after The Oxford Book of Modern Verse, and the key occult epistolary exchange ‘Leo Africanus’, edited from MSS by Steve L. Adams and George Mills Harper, is republished from the elusive Yeats Annual No. 1 (1982). The essays are by David Bradshaw, Michael Cade-Stewart, Aisling Carlin, Warwick Gould, Margaret Mills Harper, Pierre Longuenesse, Jerusha McCormack, Neil Mann, Emilie Morin, Elizabeth Müller and Alexandra Poulain, with shorter notes by Philip Bishop and Colin Smythe considering Yeats’s quatrain upon remaking himself and the pirate editions of The Land of Heart’s Desire. Ten reviews focus on various volumes of the Cornell Yeats MSS Series, his correspondence with George Yeats, and numerous critical studies. Yeats Annual is published by Open Book Publishers in association with the Institute of English Studies, University of London.

Xaimaca

se trata aquí de una novela en forma de Diario de viaje, resuelta en pequeños poemas en prosas. El acento no esta puesto en el paisaje ni en el amor sino en la relación ''paisaje amor'', entendida como fusión, como producida y productora. Pareciera que lo que el autor quiere mostrar es como brota el amor a través del paisaje y como, correlativamente, se ve el paisaje en el brote del amor. El es, de este modo, un contemplativo, un poco blando, sin iniciativa ni impulso; ella, una elegante realzada por el silencio y la sugestión. Sobre estas premisas establece entre ellos el amor.

La vuelta al mundo en 80 días

"--Sí, ochenta días! -exclamó Andrew Stuart, quien por descuido cortó una carta mayor-. Pero eso sin incluir el mal tiempo, los vientos en contra, los naufragios, los descarrilamientos, etc. -Con todo -respondió Phileas Fogg siguiendo su juego, porque el pleito ya no respetaba el whist. -Pero si los indios o los hindúes quitan las vías! Exclamó Andrew Stuart-; íSi detienen los trenes, saquean los furgones y se violentan contra los viajeros! -Con todo -respondió Phileas Fogg, que tendiendo su juego, añadió -Dos aciertos maestros. Andrew Stuart, a quien tocaba dar, recogió las cartas, diciendo: -Teóricamente tienen razón, señor Fogg; pero en la práctica... -En la práctica también, señor Stuart. -Quisiera verlo. -Sólo depende de usted. Partamos juntos. -¡Líbreme Dios! Pero bien, apostaría cuatro mil libras a que semejante viaje, hecho con esas condiciones, es imposible. -Muy posible, por el contrario -respondió Fogg. - Bien, entonces, hágalo. -¿La vuelta al mundo en ochenta días? -Sí."

Vivir Intencionalmente: Escoja una vida relevante

John C. Maxwell, #1 New York Times bestselling author, helps readers take the first steps to living a life that matters in INTENTIONAL LIVING. We all have a longing to be significant. We want to make a contribution, to be a part of something noble and purposeful. But many people wrongly believe significance is unattainable. They worry that it's too big for them to achieve. That they have to have an amazing idea, be a certain age, have a lot of money, or be powerful or famous to make a real difference. The good news is that none of those things is necessary for you to achieve significance and create a lasting legacy. The only thing you need to achieve significance is to be intentional. And to do that, all you need to do is start. You can't make an impact sitting still and doing nothing. Every major accomplishment that's ever been achieved started with a first step. Sometimes it's hard; other times it's easy, but no matter what, you have to do it if you want to get anywhere in life. In INTENTIONAL LIVING, John Maxwell will help you take that first step, and the ones that follow, on your personal path through a life that matters.

Vive por Encima de tus Sentimientos: Controla tus Emociones para que ellas no te Controlen

Aunque los sentimientos pueden ser muy fuertes y exigentes, no tenemos que permitirles que gobiernen nuestras vidas. Podemos aprender a manejar nuestras emociones en lugar de permitir que ellas nos manejen a nosotros. Si tenemos que esperar a ver cómo nos sentimos antes de saber que podemos disfrutar del día, entonces estamos dando a los sentimientos control sobre nosotros. Pero afortunadamente, tenemos libre albedrío y podemos tomar decisiones que no están basadas en los sentimientos. Si estamos dispuestos a tomar decisiones correctas independientemente de cómo nos sintamos, Dios siempre será fiel para darnos la fuerza para hacerlo. Si estás preparado para dominar tus emociones, este libro es para ti. Creo que podré ayudarte a entender algunos de tus sentimientos, pero entenderlos no es tan importante como controlarlos. Toma la decisión de que ya no seguirás permitiendo que tus sentimientos te controlen. --Joyce Meyer, de la Introducción

La vida es sueño

La vida es sueño Pedro Calderón de la Barca El más conocido de los dramas filosóficos de Calderón es La vida es sueño (1636), una de las obras de la literatura española de valor universal. Su complejidad, como ocurre con tantas obras maestras, ha dado lugar a infinidad de interpretaciones. La idea central del drama contaba con una historia larga, variada e ilustre, pero Calderón la revive con otros temas como la lucha de la libertad contra el destino y la trascendencia simbólica; y con unos personajes que llegan a representar a toda la condición humana. Su densidad filosófica y simbólica, sus soluciones teológicas, su sentido moral, jurídico y político, hacen que sea la obra más comentada de la literatura española, a excepción de El Quijote, de Cervantes.

Vida de Lazarillo Tormes

A fictional story of a street boy's apprenticeship to a blind beggar, a miserly priest, a bankrupt gentleman. Lazarillo's tale is a wicked satire of venality, pretense, and brazen self-seeking.

Los viajes de Gulliver

Los liliputienses, los reyes de Brobdingnag, los houyhnhms y los yahoos forman ya parte de la galería de grandes personajes literarios que nos acompañarán a lo largo de toda nuestra vida y de quienes hemos aprendido mucho acerca de las virtudes y defectos de la especie humana. Sin embargo, zambullirse en las páginas de Los viajes de Gulliver es emprender una aventura fascinante, compartir el riesgo, los descubrimientos y las sorpresas que el capitán Gulliver halla en su azaroso camino... el placer de la lectura intensa y divertida. Quizás sea por ello que los niños, cuando llegan a Liliput por primera vez, lo hacen con los ojos limpios y brillantes; pero cuando ya adultos viajan de nuevo a esa isla, descubren paisajes menos luminosos que les pasaron desapercibidos en su primera visita. En parte sátira demoledora, en parte relato fantástico, Los viajes de Gulliver se ha convertido por derecho propio en uno de los clásicos universales más leídos.

Viajes

"Los viajes de Marco Polo", publicado por primera vez en francés, es probablemente el libro de viaje más famoso e influyente de toda la historia. La riqueza de sus intensas descripciones supuso para la Europa medieval la primera toma de contacto con la realidad de China, además de las primeras noticias sobre otros países como Siam (Tailandia), Japón, Java, Cochinchina (en la actualidad una parte de Vietnam), Ceilán (en la actualidad Sri Lanka), Tibet, India y Birmania. Durante mucho tiempo, esta obra fue la única fuente de información de Europa sobre la geografía y el modo de vida en el Lejano Oriente. Además, sirvió de modelo para elaborar los primeros mapas fiables de Asia que se hicieron en Europa, y despertó en Cristóbal Colón el interés por el Oriente, que culminó con el descubrimiento de América en 1492, cuando pretendía llegar al Lejano Oriente que Marco Polo había descrito, navegando rumbo oeste desde Europa. También sugirió la posibilidad de abrir una ruta marítima completa al Lejano Oriente bordeando África,hecho que finalmente llevaría a cabo entre 1497-1498 el navegante portugúes Vasco da Gama.
