  Who's There?: 3 Tales from the Minds of Madmen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 74min

  Who's There? is a collection of three of Edgar Allan Poe's tales which take us into the evil and selfish minds of madmen.Teachers and students of American literature, as well as people who are new to the writings of Poe and even old fans, will find the text enriched and clarified by the audio, giving one a deeper understanding of this master's brilliant writing. This is much more than just another republishing of Poe's tales. It is a total experience. If you are new to immersive reading, this is a great place to start. The three short stories included here are:"The Tell-Tale Heart""The Cask of Amontillado""The Black Cat"Once you finish them, you will know Who's There? (a line from "The Tell-Tale Heart"). What's great about the works of Poe is they are a narrator's dream, and I believe he had the spoken word in mind when writing many of his stories. So if you choose to just listen, or read and listen, each experience has it's own rewards. I hope you enjoy the journey you are about to take! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Beneke.

  Keats's Shakespeare - A Descriptive Study Based on New Material

Spurgeon went on to become an esteemed literary critic, and was actually the first female professor of English literature. From 1900 onwards she lectured on the subject and was only the second female professor in England at the time. Through her various professional activities inside her own department, she participated in the academic literary-critical renaissance of the twenties and early thirties.

  Walt Whitman's New Orleans (eBook, ePUB)

  Walt Whitman's short stint in New Orleans during the spring of 1848 was a crucial moment of literary and personal development, with many celebrated poems from Leaves of Grass showing its influence. Walt Whitman's New Orleans is the first book dedicated to republishing his writings about the Crescent City, including numerous previously unknown pieces. Often spending his afternoons strolling through the vibrant city with his brother in tow, the young Whitman translated his impressions into short prose sketches that cataloged curious sights, captured typical characters one might meet on the levee, and joked about the strangeness of urban life. Including the first complete run of a fictional, multipart series titled "Sketches of the Sidewalks and Levee," Walt Whitman's New Orleans pairs his glimpses of the city with historical illustrations, supplementary texts, detailed annotations, and an introduction by editor Stefan Schöberlein that offers new insights on the poet's southern sojourn. Whitmanites, history enthusiasts, and lovers of New Orleans will find much to treasure in these humorous, evocative scenes of antebellum city life.

  Yogi Philosophy (Theosophy) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 515min

  These "Fourteen Lessons" are an introduction to some of the most important recorded wisdoms of our time. Embers of this sacred knowledge can faintly be seen through the veils of almost every religion, including the new age movement. Each doctrine seems to have a piece of this grail, but none contain it in its entirety. This book contains the original correspondence course, mailed out monthly over a century ago, to the homes of eager students of esoteric philosophy, (the course's mantrams, meditations and class notes have been included as well). Humanity's eternal quest for the meaning of life so often leads to the ageless axiom: "Man, know thyself." Within this book are elementary teachings on the Law of Karma (spiritual cause and effect,) the material/physical body, the instinctive mind, spiritual consciousness, global unity, Oneness, Compassion and Love. We humans are extraordinary biological/spiritual machines with vast and untapped abilities, this book offers insights on: the pineal gland, Prana and Pranic healing, the meaning of auras and their colours, the true power of thought and emotion, the astral world, what happens after the change called death and so much more. For me, the discovery of this course opened the door to the invaluable ancient esoteric wisdoms and scientific/spiritual teachings of Theosophy. The purpose of republishing these lessons with a modern introduction is to place them out in front once again. I wish to make them visible on bookshelves and online, so that any and all may be able to study, learn and grow from them as I have been able to do. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: A.K..

  The History of England

  "The History of England" is a 1791 novel by English author Jane Austen. Written when she was just fifteen years old (it includes her original spelling quirks), it is a humorous burlesque on the popular history books contemporarily used in school. Within it, Austen comically mimics the style of writing characteristic of these books, mocking the dubious objectivity of the historians in question. With outrageous characters and Austen's famously sharp wit, "The History of England" constitutes a must-read for fans of Austen's work and would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Jane Austen (1775 - 1817) was an English author known primarily for her novels, which critique the 18th century English upper classes and contemporary novels of sensibility. Her use of irony coupled with biting social commentary and realism have led to her wide acclaim amongst scholars and critics, her work contributing to the transition to 19th-century literary realism. Other notable works by this author include: "Sense and Sensibility" (1811), "Pride and Prejudice" (1813), and "Mansfield Park" (1814). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.

  Shadows: The Jill Emerson Novels, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 263min

  One morning in the spring of 1958 I woke up in my room at the Hotel Alexandria with a paralyzing hangover (which was not unusual) and an idea for a book (which was). I sat in front of my typewriter, and within a few hours I had produced a chapter-by-chapter outline of a novel. I had all the characters sketched out and knew how they'd relate to one another, and how the rather elementary storyline would resolve itself. I even had a title: Shadows. At the time I was working as an editor at a shady literary agency, but I'd already arranged for my departure, as I'd be resuming college in the fall in Ohio. Sometime in May I gave up my room at the Alexandria and went home to Buffalo, where I turned that outline into a book. My agent sent it to Crest Books, then the country's premier publisher of lesbian fiction. They spent a couple of months reading it and thinking it over, during which time I wrote and sold several lesser books to Harry Shorten's Midwood Books. Then, a couple of months after I'd returned to Antioch and gone through a lot of sturm und drang that needn't concern us here, Crest accepted Shadows. They changed my title to Strange Are the Ways of Love. They also changed my pen name. I'd known a lesbian novel ought to have a woman's name on it, and I picked one. They decided on Leslie Evans instead, so it could be gender-neutral, and then switched it to Lesley Evans, which made it more specifically female. Welcome to publishing, young man. It's clear to me now, almost 60 years later, that the book ought to set sail under its original title, and since I'm republishing it myself, that's a decision I get to make. It's also clear to me that Shadows is in fact Jill Emerson's very first novel, as it's far more of a piece with Warm And Willing and Enough of Sorrow than with anything else I've written. So that's how I'll publish it, right? As Shadows, dammit, by Jill Emerson. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: P. J. Morgan.
