The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Edgar Allan Poe's San Francisco

Edgar Allan Poe's San Francisco: Terror Tales of the City is a psychological gothic horror suspense thriller perfectly faithful to the style and tradition of Edgar Allan Poe, set in contemporary San Francisco, in which a hypnotist, Dr. Vincent Valdemar, ostensibly undertakes to condition a writer, Nicolino, to copycat the murderous modus operandi of a notorious serial killer, known as the Scarabus Killer, who stalked San Francisco in times past. Fate unites both characters who coincidentally admire the works of Poe, themes and images of which are liberally interspersed throughout this perversely tantalizing terror tale of Poe, of hypnosis--of the City! What's real and unreal becomes eerily blurred in a shadowy and murky fog as this surreal brew weaves its way through an ethereal cityscape populated by spectral characters: in this ultimate Poe-pourri.
Edgar Allan Poe's San Francisco: More Terror Tales of the City
EDGAR ALLAN POE'S SAN FRANCISCO: MORE TERROR TALES OF THE CITY, is the long-awaited sequel to those terror tales previously conceived. A gothic horror suspense thriller, perfectly faithful to the style and spirit of Edgar Allan Poe, still set in contemporary San Francisco, but derived more from Poe's more esoteric flights of fancy, fantasy, and satire. Once a berserk hypnotic subject precipitates the destruction of a hot air balloon hovering over Napa Valley, it is soon revealed that a Satanist, Docktor Anton Vankirk, has continued the hypnotic experiments of Dr. Vincent Valdemar, his former mesmeric partner killed previously at the city's celebrated Coit Tower. At a memorial service for Dr. Valdemar, conducted at the city's solemn Columbarium, Valdemar's sole direct descendant and heir-his crippled daughter, Elenora-vows revenge against Nicolino by threatening to paint his beloved, Lenore, to death in a bewitched portrait. Elenora seduces Nicolino to retrieve her father's bequest, a hidden parchment likewise coveted by the avaricious Vankirk. From the soaring crown jewel of the Transamerica Pyramid to the lofty belfry of the San Francisco Ferry Building clock tower, this compact but potent tale of Poe takes terror to untried and untrodden heights
Joseph Conrad and the Ethics of Darwinism (Routledge Revivals)
First published in 1983, this book explores a number of avenues of critical thinking about Joseph Conrad, showing him as an author deeply concerned with humankind’s ethical motivation and its relationship with the ideas of evolution current in his day. Allan Hunter establishes Conrad’s detailed knowledge of the leading evolutionary arguments of the period and the main questions posed: were ethics God-given or were morals merely an evolved attribute? His novels are shown as debates with, and extensions of, the theories of Huxley, Darwin, Carlyle, Spencer, Lombroso and others on the nature of humanity and altruism.
