Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. People often complain that in history lessons at school they were taught just a few topics - the Romans, the Tudors, the Nazis - and how they have no idea at all about what happened in between. To remedy this, World History: 50 Key Milestones You Really Need to Know offers brief and stimulating outlines of key developments in the history of the world, from the beginning of agriculture 10,000 years ago to the attack on the Twin Towers on 9/11. Ian Crofton, the author of several books of popular history including The Kings and Queens of England, Traitors and Turncoats and History Without the Boring Bits, brings his lively style to bear in a series of essays ranging from ancient Egypt to modern China, from the Vikings and the Mongols to the French Revolution and the Cold War. Each essay is accompanied by a detailed time line of dates and events, and the flavour of the period concerned is brought to life by selected contemporary quotations from figures as diverse as Aristotle, Ashoka, Saladin, Christopher Columbus, Martin Luther, Suleiman the Magnificent, Galileo, Voltaire, Thomas Jefferson, Mary Wollstonecraft, Napoleon, Lincoln, Lenin and Winston Churchill. In addition, box features throw light on a range of related topics, from the Nazca Lines to Renaissance man, from Confucianism and the state to Alexander the Great's horse, from Islamic science and the Barbary corsairs to the Enigma code and the atomic bomb.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. How is The Colour Code different to other books on colour? Well, the short answer is that it is a whole lot more fun - not least because it is extensively illustrated. We don't just get a story about Mummy Brown (the pigment made from Egyptian mummies), we see a painting created with pigments from the remains of French kings. We are reminded of the blue/gold dress that swept Twitter, view paintings by Mondrian (red ones sell for higher prices) and Van Eyck (he invented an enduring green), and inspect the red soles of Louboutin shoes. We see what lumps of Indian yellow look like, while reading what they are made of (strained cow's urine). We get to see the latest most vibrant pigment - YinMn Blue - and have a real estate agent's tour of Frank Sinatra's ranch (he was obsessed by orange). We see William Morris's arsenic-inflected wallpapers and hear about whether wallpaper killed Napoleon. We encounter the pink pussy hats worn on the Women's March and Elvis's pink jackets from Lansky's in Memphis, take in a history of the black dress from Audrey Hepburn to Princess Diana and a rare black chicken (even its eggs are black) from Indonesia. Featuring a cast of actors, artists, chemists, composers, dentists, dictators, fashion designers, film-makers, gods, musicians, mystics, physicists, poets, quacks, tigers and tycoons, The Colour Code will change the way we all perceive the spectrum - and see the world. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Charting the rise and fall of an ambitious young social climber in a cruel, monarchical society, Stendhal's The Red and the Black is translated with an introduction and notes by Roger Gard in Penguin Classics. Handsome, ambitious Julien Sorel is determined to rise above his humble provincial origins. Soon realizing that success can only be achieved by adopting the subtle code of hypocrisy by which society operates, he begins to achieve advancement through deceit and self-interest. His triumphant career takes him into the heart of glamorous Parisian society, along the way conquering the gentle, married Madame de Renal, and the haughty Mathilde. But then Julien commits an unexpected, devastating crime - and brings about his own downfall. The Red and the Black is a lively, satirical portrayal of French society after Waterloo, riddled with corruption, greed and ennui, and Julien - the cold exploiter whose Machiavellian campaign is undercut by his own emotions - is one of the most intriguing characters in European literature. Roger Gard's fine translation remains faithful to the natural, conversational tone of the original, while his introduction elucidates the complexities of Julien's character. This edition also contains a chronology, further reading and an appendix on Stendhal's use of epigraphs. Stendhal (1783-1842) was the pseudonym of Henri Marie Beyle, born and raised in Grenoble. Offered a post in the Ministry of War, from 1800 onwards he followed Napoleon's campaigns throughout Europe before retiring to Italy. Here, as 'Stendhal', he began writing on art, music and travel. Though not well-received during his lifetime, his work, including The Red and the Black (1830) and The Charterhouse of Parma (1839), now places him among the pioneers of nineteenth-century literary realism. If you enjoyed The Red and the Black, you may like Guy de Maupassant's Bel-Ami, also available in Penguin Classics. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. With Arthurian grandeur the Papal Zouaves marched into Italy in the mid-nineteenth century, summoned by the Pope under siege as the Wars of the Risorgimento raged. Motivated by wanderlust, a sense of duty and the call of faith, some 20,000 Catholic men from around the world rallied to Vatican City to defend her gates against Sardinian marauders. Volunteers came from France, Belgium, Spain, Ireland, Austria, and many other countries, including the United States. The battles that ensued lasted over 10 years, among a shifting array of allies and enemies and are among history's most fascinating yet largely overlooked episodes. Napoleon, Pius IX, and Bismarck all make appearances in the story, but at the center were the Zouaves - steeped in a knightly code of honor, and unflinching in battle as any modern warrior - as the Church they vowed to defend to the death teetered at the brink of destruction.

PAPERBACK, very good, attractive copy. COHN, DORRIT. The distinction of fiction. Baltimore: Johns Hopkins University Press, 2000, but may be a more recent digital reprint, 1st printing number line of the paperback edition, ix, 197pp., . Cohn argues that fiction presents specific clues to its fictionality and its own justifications. Indeed, except in cases of deliberate deception, fiction achieves its purposes best by exercising generic conventions that inform the reader that it is fiction. Cohn tests her conclusions against major narrative works, including Proust's A la Recherche du temps perdu, Mann's Death in Venice, Tolstoy's War and Peace, and Freud's case studies. She contests widespread poststructuralist views that all narratives are fictional. On the contrary, she separates fiction and nonfiction as necessarily distinct, even when bound together. An expansion of Cohn's Christian Gauss lectures at Princeton, this book builds on narratological and phenomenological theories to show that boundaries between fiction and history can be firmly and systematically explored. - CONTENTS: Focus on Fiction -- Fictional versus Historical Lives: Borderlines and Borderline Cases -- Freud's Case Histories and the Question of Fictionality -- Proust's Generic Ambiguity -- Breaking the Code of Fictional Biography: Wolfgang Hildesheimer's Marbot -- "I Doze and Wake": The Deviance of Simultaneous Narration -- Signposts of Fictionality: A Narratological Perspective -- The "Second Author" of Death in Venice -- Pierre and Napoleon at Borodino: Reflections on the Historical Novel -- Optics and Power in the Novel. 9780801865220 ISBN 0801865220.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This concise biography is written with great wit and panache, but also has a serious purpose: to make us face up to the moral bankruptcy of Napoleon's dictatorship. Johnson tells the whole story: his astonishing gift for figures and calculation, his mastery of cannon; his audacious, hyperactive and aggressive generalship and his simple battle tactics; his complete control of propaganda and the success of the cultural presentation of the Empire; the Code Napoleon; his failure as an international statesman, as Europe grew to hate him; his marshals and ministers; his wives, mistresses, personal style and working methods; the British blockade and the Continental System; the mistakes in Spain and Russia. The escape from Elba, the events leading up to Waterloo and the battle itself, which gets a full treatment, is particularly riveting. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Risse. Pour Charles de Gaulle, Napoléon (1769 -1821) fait passer sur l'Histoire de France " le frisson de la grandeur ". En dix ans, ce brillant officier, stratège hors pair fait la conquête de l'Europe, et couvre de gloire son armée. Inventeur de la France moderne, l'empereur qui tourne définitivement la page de la Révolution de 1789, dote son pays d'institutions qui durent encore, comme le code civil et une partie de notre système éducatif. Despote, mais de génie, visionnaire, il connaîtra cependant le sort tragique des vaincus : l'exil, mais jamais l'oubli, pour avoir laissé une certaine image héroïque de la France : celle du Petit Caporal et du Grognard.

Taschenbuch. Kartoniert. Zustand: Gut. Erste Auflage dieser Ausgabe. 636 (4) Seiten. Dünndruckausgabe. 17,8 cm. Umschlag von Michael Hagemann. Lesetipp des Bukinisten! Guter Zustand. Fabrizio gerät in der Nähe von Parma wegen einer hübschen Frau mit deren Begleiter in Händel und ersticht ihn im Kampf. Er wird daraufhin in Haft genommen, entkommt aber auf abenteuerliche Weise aus dem Kerker, der Zitadelle von Parma. Die Liebe zu Clelia Conti, der Tochter des Kerkermeisters, und die liebende Bewunderung der Gina Sanseverina bestimmen den Gang der Geschehnisse vor dem Hintergrund italienischer Städte und Landschaften. - Stendhal , eigentlich Marie Henri Beyle, französischer Schriftsteller, *Grenoble 23.1. 1783, Paris 23.3. 1842; stand 1800-14 mit Unterbrechung im Dienst Napoleons I. (1806-08 Intendant in Braunschweig, Teilnahme am Russischen Feldzug von 1812), lebte nach dem Ende des Kaiserreichs bis 1821 in Mailand, nach der Ausweisung durch die österreichischen Behörden als freier Autor in Paris, war (nach der Julirevolution) ab 1831 Konsul in Civitavecchia. Stendhals umfangreiches literarisches Werk umfasst Essays, Reiseberichte, Tagebücher (geführt 1801þ42), Romane und Novellen. Es spiegelt vielfältig seine Liebe zu Italien und sein Interesse für die italienische Geschichte wider (u.a. »Histoire de la peinture en Italie«, 2 Bände, 1817, deutsch »Geschichte der Malerei in Italien«; »Rome, Naples et Florence en 1817«, 1817, deutsch u.a. »Reise in Italien«; »Vie de Rossini«, 2 Bände, 1823, deutsch »Das Leben Rossinis«; »Promenades dans Rome«, 2 Bände, 1829, deutsch »Römische Spaziergänge«). In seiner Ästhetik tief vom Sensualismus des 18. Jahrhunderts geprägt, beeinflusste er mit den Essays »Racine et Shakespeare« (2 Bände, 1823-25; deutsch »Racine und Shakespeare«) die Literaturdebatte um die Durchsetzung moderner (romantischer) Positionen, ohne jemals zum Kreis der französischen Romantiker zu gehören. Er entwickelte eine besondere Art, philosophischen Diskurs, psychologische Beobachtung und Selbstbeobachtung zu verbinden, erstmals in dem großen essayistischen Werk »De l'amour« (2 Bände, 1822), das allerdings von den Zeitgenossen kaum wahrgenommen wurde. Ein Jahrzehnt später, in den »Souvenirs d'égotisme« (entstanden 1832, herausgegeben 1892) knüpfte er an diese Texte an, deren Anlass eine unerwiderte Liebe war; die Selbstanalyse ist nun unerbittlich scharf geworden. Nüchterne Sezierung des Innenlebens der Figuren, die in chronikalische Erzählweise und genaue Gesellschaftsschilderung eingebettet ist, sowie sachlicher Stil (sein Vorbild war die Sprache des »Code civil«) kennzeichnen die Romane und Novellen Stendhals. Die schrankenlos individualistischen Charaktere setzen ihre intellektuelle Überlegenheit ein, um in einer Welt der Mittelmäßigkeit ihr Glück zu erzwingen und scheitern schließlich an sich selbst, wie Julien Sorel in »Le rouge et le noir« (2 Bände, 1830; deutsch »Rot und Schwarz«), Stendhals berühmtestem Roman, ähnlich Fabrice del Dongo in »La chartreuse de Parme« (2 Bände, 1839; ). Stendhals belletristisches Werk trägt wenig fiktionale Züge, als stoffliche Grundlage nutzte er Chroniken (so in den Novellen »Chroniques italiennes«, vollständig herausgegeben 1855; deutsch »Italienische Chroniken«), auch Texte anderer Autoren (so in »Armance«, 1827 und in dem unvollendet gebliebenen Roman »Lucien Leuwen«, 1835), eigenes Erleben in dem autobiographischen Roman »Vie de Henry Brulard« (entstanden 1835/36, herausgegeben 1890), einen Bericht über einen Kriminalfall in »Le rouge et le noir«. In den Werken mit zeitgeschichtlichem Hintergrund spiegelt sich die Bewunderung Stendhals für Napoleon (politische Biographie »Mémoires sur Napoléon«, 1837; deutsch »Denkschrift über Napoleon«) wider. Im zeitgenössischen literarischen Leben Frankreichs spielte Stendhal nur eine untergeordnete Rolle, nur der »Chartreuse de Parme« widmete H. de Balzac eine begeisterte Rezension. Stendhal selbst strebte nicht nach Anerkennung eines großen Publikums. Als herausragender Romancier und Schilderer subtilster seelischer Regungen, die dem Lebensgefühl des Fin de Siècle entsprachen, wurde er von H. Taine und F. Nietzsche entdeckt.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Napoleon's invasion of Egypt in 1798 was the first attack on a Middle Eastern country by a Western power in modern times. With 400 ships and 55,000 men, it was the largest, long-distance seaborne force the world has ever seen. But Napoleon's assault was intended to be much more than a colonial adventure for he took with him more than a hundred scientists, mathematicians, artists and writers - a 'Legion of Culture' for the purpose of bringing Western civilization to 'backward' Egypt. Ironically, what these intellectuals discovered in Egypt would transform our knowledge of Western civilization and form the basis of Egyptology. Travelling to the far reaches of the Upper Nile, Napoleon's artists sketched the great temples and ruins of the Pharaohs, and his soldiers uncovered the Rosetta Stone, which would eventually lead to the deciphering of the mysterious Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. But there were also setbacks. Nelson's destruction of the French fleet at the Battle of the Nile apparently put an end to Napoleon's ambitions, though the General himself did not see it that way. His secret plan was to follow in the footsteps of Alexander the Great and invade India.Being cut off from France meant that he was free to indulge his 'oriental dream' and found his own Eastern empire, with its independent culture developed by his young French intellectuals. Napoleon was just twenty-eight when he invaded Egypt and it was an episode which contained in embryo many seminal events in his later life. Epic military victories, his declaration of himself as emperor, the introduction of the Napoleonic Code, even the retreat from Moscow and his abandonment of his army - all of these were foreshadowed in his brilliant ambitious and ultimately disastrous adventure. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
