This carefully crafted ebook: "20 HAUNTING TALES OF MYSTERY & MACABRE: Ghost Stories of an Antiquary - Volume 1&2, A Thin Ghost, The Story of a Disappearance and an Appearance, The Residence at Whitminster…" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. 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. He served global companies like Bearing Point, Canon, Carlsberg, Cisco Systems, Global Knowledge, KWS, Microsoft, RIM, Xerox and others.

'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.

Así que pasen treinta años… Historia interna de la poesía española (1950-2017) es un ensayo que analiza el devenir de la poesía española desde 1950 hasta 2017, escrito desde la conciencia de que la literatura es fruto de los condicionantes histórico-ideológicos de cada época y de la sociedad que la produce. Aquí se recoge la historia de los vencedores, parafraseando a Bloom, pero –y por una vez– también la de los vencidos, porque entre todos han ido edificando y modificando lo que hoy entendemos por poesía. Desde sus páginas se ofrece al lector una panorámica de conjunto, un recorrido ágil y dinámico por las diferentes épocas, estéticas y tendencias que han ido construyendo un "estado de poesía" determinado en la España de los últimos setenta años, partiendo de la definición del concepto de canon, de su evolución y desplazamiento significativo a lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, y tomando en consideración el valor clasificatorio que, desde el punto de vista histórico-sociológico y artístico, siguen teniendo las generaciones y promociones literarias.

Un libro que perfectamente se puede considerar como el canon estético de Peter Sloterdijk. En el presente libro, Peter Sloterdijk toca todos los géneros modernos de las artes, desde la música hasta la arquitectura, desde el uso de la luz hasta las artes vivas, desde el diseño hasta la tipografía. Transita por todos los campos de lo visible y lo invisible, de lo audible y lo inaudible, en un arco histórico que se extiende desde la Antigüedad hasta Hollywood. Cuando aplica su particular método de distanciamiento del discurso a la contemplación de obras y géneros artísticos, los objetos descritos se muestran súbitamente bajo una luz diferente, y con su despierto y combativo sentido de la actualidad nos conduce lejos, muy lejos de los caminos trillados del comentario artístico. A lo largo de sus páginas se despliega la manera singularísima, a un tiempo jovial y seria, con que el gran filósofo alemán analiza los fenómenos estéticos más dispares, caracterizando lo estético del arte y de las artes.

<p>The War of the Worlds is a science fiction novel by English author H. G. Wells, first serialized in 1897 by Pearson's Magazine in the UK and by Cosmopolitan magazine in the US. The novel's first appearance in hardcover was in 1898 from publisher William Heinemann of London. Written between 1895 and 1897,it is one of the earliest stories to detail a conflict between mankind and an extraterrestrial race.The novel is the first-person narrative of both an unnamed protagonist in Surrey and of his younger brother in London as southern England is invaded by Martians. The novel is one of the most commented-on works in the science fiction canon.</p> <p>Wells trained as a science teacher during the latter half of the 1880s. One of his teachers was T. H. Huxley, famous as a major advocate of Darwinism.</p> <p>The scientific fascinations of the novel are established in the opening chapter where the narrator views Mars through a telescope, and Wells offers the image of the superior Martians having observed human affairs, as though watching tiny organisms through a microscope. Ironically it is microscopic Earth lifeforms that finally prove deadly to the Martian invasion force. In 1894 a French astronomer observed a 'strange light' on Mars, and published his findings in the scientific journal Nature on the second of August that year. Wells used this observation to open the novel, imagining these lights to be the launching of the Martian cylinders toward Earth. American astronomer Percival Lowell published the book Mars in 1895 suggesting features of the planet's surface observed through telescopes might be canals. He speculated that these might be irrigation channels constructed by a sentient life form to support existence on an arid, dying world, similar to that which Wells suggests the Martians have left behind. The novel also presents ideas related to Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection, both in specific ideas discussed by the narrator, and themes explored by the story.</p> <p>Among the most significant works H. G. Wells: The Outline of History, </p> <p>The Country of the Blind, The Red Room, The Time Machine, The Invisible Man, The War of the Worlds, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The First Men in the Moon, The Shape of Things to Come, When the Sleeper Wakes. </p>

<b>Qui tue ces femmes d'un unique coup de poignard en plein cœur ?</b> <b><br></b> <b><br></b>Bratislava a peur. Un tueur en série sévit près de la tour UFO, le célèbre bâtiment planté sur le Pont Neuf de la capitale slovaque. Les victimes sont des femmes aux mœurs légères, des délinquantes. Elles sont tuées d’un coup de poignard dans le cœur, un seul, sans autre forme de violence. <br>L’inspecteur Théo Fusko est sur la brèche. Malgré l’aide de son énigmatique collègue, Néo, l’enquête piétine. La méthode du binôme ne figure nulle part dans les manuels de Police ; elle intrigue une jeune profileuse dépêchée de Prague, Lydia Kacinova. La jeune femme s’inquiète ; elle y reconnaît les symptômes de pathologies psychiatriques, mais une vérité beaucoup plus dérangeante la guette, une vérité bien au-delà du réel. <br>Par le biais de cet ouvrage, l’auteur nous invite à un voyage à la croisée de chemins, entre maladie mentale et pouvoirs surnaturels. Dans ce plongeon à haut risque, personne n’en sort indemne. Et vous ? <br> <br> <b>Un thriller sombre et inquiétant dans la capitale slovaque éclaboussée de sang.</b> <br> <br>EXTRAIT <br> <br>Théo Fusko est seul, le crâne collé contre la vitre. Sa grande carcasse est calée dans l’encoignure de la fenêtre. La lumière est éteinte. Au fond de la pièce, le miroir mural renvoie la silhouette d’un <i>Nosferatu</i> recroquevillé sur lui-même. Il déplie un bras, et pose la paume sur sa tête rasée. Les céphalées émergent ; le pouls s’accélère. Il reconnaît les signes. Il en ignore la cause, et c’est peut-être ce qui le rend si mal. Il se sent un peu triste, et sale. Il étend une jambe et repousse du pied le holster accroché au radiateur. Les lanières glissent ; l’étui bascule vers le sol. Il ne le retient pas. Dans la chute, le <i>MARK 7</i> s’échappe, et le canon cogne contre un insigne métallisé, la plaque de la police de Bratislava. Il regarde un instant l’éclat bleuté de ces deux symboles de pouvoir, ces deux outils mis à sa disposition pour protéger et servir sa ville. Pour l’instant, ils ne lui ont pas été très utiles dans l’affaire de <i>l’UFO</i>. Le tueur court toujours, et il s’en veut. À sa décharge, ses collègues n’ont pas fait mieux. <br> <br>À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR <br> <br> <b>Jean-François Thiery</b> est cadre informaticien dans l’industrie automobile. Il réside en France, dans le pays de Montbéliard. Il commence à écrire en 2009, et publie des nouvelles et des romans. Il signe avec <i>Alliance Obscure</i> un premier thriller fantastique aux éditions Ex Aequo.
