In Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, readers are transported to the societal norms and expectations of 18th-century England through the eyes of the young and naive heroine, Catherine Morland. The novel cleverly combines elements of both satire and Gothic fiction, providing a commentary on the hypocrisies of the time while also entertaining readers with its witty and sharp dialogue. Austen's writing style is characterized by her keen observations of human nature and her ability to create vivid characters that come to life on the page. The novel's setting in the English countryside and the bustling city of Bath adds depth to its exploration of class and manners. Austen's wit and humor shine through in this classic work, making it a timeless piece of literature that continues to captivate readers today. Jane Austen, known for her insightful portrayals of Regency-era England, drew inspiration from her own experiences and observations of the society in which she lived. Her keen understanding of human relationships and social dynamics is evident in her works, including Northanger Abbey. Austen's unique perspective and sharp wit make her a standout writer in the canon of English literature, and her influence can still be felt in modern storytelling. I highly recommend Northanger Abbey to any reader who enjoys a cleverly written and engaging novel that offers both entertainment and social commentary. Jane Austen's timeless work is a must-read for those who appreciate sharp wit, memorable characters, and a keen exploration of societal norms.

A partir de siete preguntas que funcionan como disparadores, ¿A qué llamamos literatura? intenta responder cuestiones centrales en los estudios literarios: cómo se clasifican las obras, por qué las valoramos, qué valoramos en ellas, cómo representan mundos posibles, cómo las leemos, cómo circulan en la vida social, cómo se insertan en los conflictos que atraviesan nuestra cultura. Dirigido por José Luis de Diego, el presente volumen es el resultado de convertir —obligado por las restricciones sanitarias de 2020— las clases orales en clases escritas. Con una prosa accesible y cercana, sin notas al pie ni un agobiante aparato teórico, cada capítulo busca abrirse paso entre los lectores comunes, interesados en la literatura, que nunca siguieron estudios sistemáticos, y promueve una aproximación crítica a ese objeto de estudio. Las preguntas, como instrumentos pedagógicos, ayudan a pensar y ordenar las experiencias de lectura, a menudo caóticas y azarosas. Desde Aristóteles a Erich Auerbach y Terry Eagleton, pasando por los formalistas rusos; desde Gustave Flaubert y Franz Kafka a Julio Cortázar y Roberto Arlt, entre otros, este libro se pregunta por la ficción, los géneros, la mímesis, el realismo, el canon, la verosimilitud, la historia literaria y la crítica. Como lo sintetiza el propio De Diego en su prólogo: "'Enseñar literatura—decía un recordado profesor— más que transmitir un saber es contagiar una pasión.' Ojalá este libro logre ese objetivo."

Answers to Common Questions about the Writing, Copying, Canonizing, and Translating of the Bible There are many common questions and misconceptions surrounding the formation and history of the Bible: Why is the Bible composed of the current 66 books instead of others? Why are there so many translations? How are we to understand both the human and divine elements of the Bible? In Scribes and Scripture, scholars John D. Meade and Peter J. Gurry answer these questions and give readers tools to interpret the evidence about God's word. Beginning with the history of the Bible—from the invention of the alphabet to the most recent English translations—the book focuses on three main areas: the writing and copying of the Bible, the canonization of the Bible, and the translation of the Bible. Using Old and New Testament scholarship, Meade and Gurry help God's people better appreciate the story of the Bible as a way to better appreciate the stories in the Bible. - Engaging Visual Content: Contains maps, charts, sidebars, and pictures - Collaboration of Old Testament and New Testament Scholarship: Written by experts in both Old Testament (Meade) and New Testament (Gurry) textual scholarship - Answers Common Questions: Specifically regarding textual criticism, the canon, and Bible translations

<p> The bonds that tie family together are among the strongest on earth. But what of those between two brothers born as Siamese twins? The „Corsican Brothers” is a richly drawn tale of fraternal love and revenge. Alexandre Dumas weaves the compelling story of Siamese twins who are separated physically but never in spirit. They have a truly remarkable psychic link, and can feel each others pains and triumphs. When one of the brothers is murdered, the other leaves Corsica for Paris to avenge the killing. Dumas, a master storyteller, brings this thrilling tale to life with his fascinating descriptions of Italy and France and his powerful portrayal of the undying love of brother for brother. One of Dumas’ earliest novels, and set in the present (1841), the book falls outside of Dumas’ historical canon.</p>

<p> Charles Dickens’ work is ranked among the finest writing in the Western canon, and the author specialized in seasonal stories to warm the hearts of his adoring fans during the holiday season. Dickens’s relationship with Christmas extends far beyond the success of „A Christmas Carol”, with five short Christmas books and countless slighter stories on a festive theme. In all of them he uses Christmas as a time to wake up the dozing conscience of the prosperous urban middle classes. This collection of Christmas-themed tales are an entertaining read during the holidays or any time you need a quick pick-me-up. In this volume you will find the following entertaining holiday tales: „The Christmas Tree”, „What Christmas is as We Grow Older”, „The Poor Relation’s Story”, „The Child’s Story”, „The Schoolboy’s Story”, „Nobody’s Story”. Elegantly written, in pure Dickensian style, these short stories evoke the magic of Christmas and its true meaning.</p>

M. R. James (1862-1936) redefined the ghost story for the new century by abandoning many of the formal Gothic clichés of his predecessors and using more realistic contemporary settings. However, James's protagonists and plots tend to reflect his own antiquarian interests. Accordingly, he is known as the originator of the "antiquarian ghost story". He was was a medievalist scholar and provost of King's College, Cambridge (1905–18), and of Eton College (1918–36). Though James's work as a medievalist is still highly regarded, he is best remembered for his ghost stories, which are regarded as among the best in the genre.

With this book, Thomas Menthe provides new insights into the era of value-selling, which has been the Number 1 method in selling complex products and services. Today, customers are expecting more while paying less and the value of your offer is defined by the customer not by the seller. Data is the new oil - the new digital age allows different ways with technology like machine learning to better analyze customer journeys, get insights, predict behaviors and personalize communication to improve customer retention. Digitalization will change the buying behavior much more towards e-commerce and self-service consultation with the support of sales robots. Value can be created from data, which needs to be structured, analyzed and used for the individual customer engagement. Does this mean the end of the sales representative and solution sales? Value is not based solely on product dimensions, much more emotional value created counts during the decision making process. The new era of value-selling explains, how value can be made tangible by the value quotient and ways to generate rational and emotional ROI for customers through story-telling and relationship benefits. Value is always first on the buyer's mind and the new value-selling concept will dramatically improve your business and show how to respond to the customer of tomorrow. Thomas Menthe (MBA) is a sales expert, experienced seller, recognized speaker and author of many publications about customer value, new ways of selling, selling strategy, leadership and coaching. His best selling book Kundennutzen has sold thousands of copies and others are available in their 4th edition.

'Hilariously Irish, shrewdly accurate and richly creative.' —Irish Times 'Creates a charming emotional map of a fictitious but authentic-seeming place.' —Boston Globe 'John B.'s love of language was – and is – a joy to experience.' —Brendan Kennelly A collection of more than fifty tales by one of Ireland's liveliest and most popular story writers. Drawing on the rich folk culture of County Kerry, John B. Keane brings new life to old customs in his portrayals of the special holiday dreams and everyday shortcomings of not-so-ordinary country people during the Christmas season. With enough good cheer to warm the heart throughout the holiday season and all the long nights of winter, Keane's congenial volume revisits the Christmases celebrated by characters like Dotie Tupper and Johnny Naile , the deaf Canon Cornelius Coodle, the amiable spendthrift Aenias Mackson, and Hiccups O'Reilly, who disappears one Christmas Eve and is gone for seven years. Whether recounting 'The Miracle of Ballybradawn', 'The Great Christmas Raid at Ballybooley', or 'The Order of MacMoolamawn', whether telling the tales of 'The Magic Stoolin', 'A Tasmanian Backhander', 'The Fourth Wise Man' or the 'Last Christmas Eve of the Twentieth Century', Keane bears delightful witness to the trials and triumphs of the inhabitants of his eccentric corner of Ireland.
