Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Thousands of years ago in what is now Italy, there was a real soldier named Horatius who defended the last bridge into Rome from invaders. It was the end of the Age of Kings, and Horatius helped usher in the Roman Republic, giving citizens power over their own society. In ancient times, people would sing songs and write poems about heroic and memorable events like this. The Roman historian Livy wrote a few paragraphs about it, but there was no epic poetic remembrance for the valiant one-eyed Horatius.That is, until about two hundred years ago, when a man from England named Macauley read Livy's ancient account of Horatius and the events that led up to the start of the Roman Republic. Mr. Macauley decided to write a poem himself-in a style that sounded like it was written by Ancient Romans. The present book was inspired by Livy's History of Rome and Macauley's 1842 Lays of Ancient Rome-a collection of narrative poems--one of which was called Horatius at the Bridge. Artist and storyteller Mike Bolan combines these literary historical sources with his imaginative greyscale graphite drawings to bring this engaging introduction to history to young people. …

Neuware - This concise narrative centers around the travels and misadventures of its title character as he seeks upward social mobility and wealth through hard work or good luck.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Emilia Pardo Bazán published Insolación (1889) after already having established a name for herself as a novelist with her previous two novels Los Pazos de Ulloa (1886) and La Madre Naturaleza (1887). Insolación caused a stir when it was released. Critics and the public alike were shocked by the ending as well as by the representation of an unmarried woman's sexual attraction to a charming Southerner with a reputation of being something of a womanizer. Moreover, the dedication to José Lázaro Galdiano, with whom Emilia Pardo Bazán was romantically involved for a short time, seemed to indicate that the novel was in some way autobiographical.…

Neuware - Doña Perfecta (1876) is a 19th-century realist novel by Benito Pérez Galdós from what is called the first of Galdós's three epochs in his novels of social analysis. Linda M. Willem's edition for students includes an enlightening introduction in English, vocabulary glosses in the margins, and English footnotes throughout. The action occurs in 19th century Spain, when a young liberal named Don José (Pepe) Rey, arrives in a cathedral city named Orbajosa, with the intention of marrying his cousin Rosario. This was a marriage of convenience arranged between Pepe's father Juan and Juan's sister, Perfecta. Upon getting to know each other, Pepe and Rosario declare their eternal love, but in steps Don Inocencio, the cathedral canon, who meddles and obstructs the marriage as well as the good intentions of Doña Perfecta and her brother Don Juan. Over the course of time, several events lead up to a confrontation between Pepe Rey and his aunt Perfecta (supposedly based on Galdós's difficult relationship with his mother), which is caused by her refusal to allow Pepe and Rosario to marry, because Pepe is a non-believer. The novel ends up with the death of Pepe Rey due to his aunt Perfecta. Rosario turns mad and ends up in a madhouse. …
