The Last of the Tsars - Nicholas II and the Russia Revolution

The Last of the Tsars - Nicholas II and the Russia Revolution

Robert Service

Pegasus Books
2017
sidottu
The story has been told many times, but Service's deep understanding of the period and his forensic examination of previously untapped sources, including the Tsar's diaries and recorded conversations, as well as the testimonies of the official inquiry, shed remarkable new light on his troubled reign, also revealing the kind of Russia that Nicholas wanted to emerge from the Great War The Last of the Tsars is a masterful study of a man who was almost entirely out of his depth, perhaps even willfully so. It is also a compelling account of the social, economic and political ferment in Russia that followed the February Revolution, the Bolshevik seizure of power in October 1917 and the beginnings of Lenin's Soviet socialist republic.

Aphorisms and Comments: on Nassim Nicholas Taleb's Incerto

Aphorisms and Comments: on Nassim Nicholas Taleb's Incerto

Maximilian Hirner

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
The inspiration for this book came from the best aphorists of world history: Lichtenberg, Montaigne, Goethe, Nietzsche, Karl Kraus, and of course Nassim Nicholas Taleb.If you want to dig deeper into Taleb's concepts, I hope these comments may help you a bit with it.What I did isn't much - I just applied his concepts to the world and the thoughts other people had about it (and said thoughts), but still managed to come to some interesting conclusions, and have some ideas of my own.Since I am too lazy to do more work, I decided to write a book of aphorisms, delivering as much information to you as possible in a text as short as possible.In 2014, I discovered Taleb's books (starting with "Antifragile"); in 2016, I contacted him via the social networks; in 2018, I decided to write my first book, inspired by him.Maestro Taleb is with little doubt the greatest living philosopher and polymath. He changed my way of thinking, and catalysed it. For all I learned from him, I owe him a lot. This book shall pay some of this intellectual debt, among other tings.That's it.

Die Inspiration f r dieses Buch kam von den besten Aphoristikern der Weltgeschichte: Lichtenberg, Montaigne, Goethe, Nietzsche, Karl Kraus, und nat rlich Nassim Nicholas Taleb.Wer tiefer in Nassim Nicholas Taleb's Konzepte eintauchen will, dem werden diese Kommentare hoffentlich eine Hilfe sein.Eigentlich habe ich nicht viel getan - ich habe nur seine Konzepte auf die Welt und die Gedanken, die andere Leute dar ber (und ber diese Gedanken) hatten, angewendet, bin so aber trotzdem zu einigen interessanten Schlussfolgerungen und eigenen Ideen gekommen.Weil ich zu faul bin, um mehr zu tun, habe ich mich entschieden, ein Aphorismen-Buch zu schreiben, um mit sowenig Text wie m glich soviel Information wie m glich zu transportieren.2014 hatte ich Taleb's B cher entdeckt (angefangen mit "Antifragilit t"); 2016 habe ich den Kontakt zu ihm ber die sozialen Netzwerke aufgenommen; 2018 habe ich mich entschieden, ein von ihm inspiriertes Buch zu schreiben.Maestro Taleb ist ohne Zweifel der gr te lebende Philosoph und Universalgelehrte. Er hat ver ndert, wie ich denke, und mein Denken katalysiert. Ich schulde ihm sehr viel f r das, was ich von ihm gelernt habe. Dieses Buch soll auch etwas von dieser intellektuellen Schuld zur ckzahlen.Und das war's.

The Plays and Poems of Nicholas Rowe

The Plays and Poems of Nicholas Rowe

Pickering Chatto (Publishers) Ltd
2016
muu
Nicholas Rowe was the first Poet Laureate of the Georgian era. A fascinating and important yet largely overlooked figure in eighteenth-century literature, he is the ‘lost Augustan’. His plays are important both for the way they address the political and social concerns of the day and for reflecting a period in which the theatre was in crisis. This edition sets out to demonstrate Rowe’s mastery of the early eighteenth century theatre, especially his providing significant roles for women, and examines the political and historical stances of his plays. It also highlights his work as a translator, which was both innovative and deeply in tune with current practices as exemplified by John Dryden and Alexander Pope. This is the first scholarly edition of all Rowe’s plays and poems and is accompanied by 15 musical scores and 31 black and white illustrations. The first three volumes arrange his plays chronologically with the first volume presenting the early plays, The Ambitious Step-Mother, Tamerlane, and The Fair Penitent; the second volume the middle plays, The Biter, Ulysses, and The Royal Convert; and the third volume his late period plays, The Tragedy of Jane Shore and The Tragedy of the Lady Jane Grey. The subsequent volumes cover his translation of Lucan’s Pharsalia, described by Samuel Johnson as one of the greatest productions in English poetry, and his own original poetry — which was often composed for specific occasions. Each volume contains a newly written explanatory introduction which precedes the full edited text. Appendices covering dedications, prologues and epilogues, performance history, the related music and textual apparatus are also included. The edition comes with a consolidated bibliography for ease of reference.

What happens when a young, fast-rising cop, married to the love of his life, suddenly loses his unborn child to miscarriage, loses his wife to cancer, and loses his job because of a violent incident with a suspect? He decides to have drinking binges to try to forget. That's what happened to Nicholas Turner ten years ago. Now, thanks to help from his sister, Melissa, and his best friend, FBI Agent Marcus Moore, Nicholas has almost conquered the drinking, and has become a private investigator that specializes in cases concerning children. Meredith Richardson's daughter, Karen, has been kidnapped, and the city's police department doesn't seem to be much help. At the suggestion of Marcus Moore, Meredith hires Nicholas to find the girl. But Nicholas has unexpected help. A little girl, that apparently only Nicholas can see, is helping him with the case. She appears when Nicholas needs a clue, then disappears just as quickly. Who is this little girl? Why is Nicholas so attracted to his client? Who kidnapped his client's little girl? And why has this case become so deadly? Inspired by the classic song by Gordon Lightfoot, If You Could Read My Mind is a heartwarming story about redemption, romance, and second chances.

The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby: Illustrated

The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby: Illustrated

Charles Dickens

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2017
nidottu
Nicholas Nickleby is Charles Dickens's third published novel. He returned to his favourite publishers and to the format that was considered so successful with The Pickwick Papers. The story first appeared in monthly parts, after which it was issued in one volume. The style is considered to be episodic and humorous, though the second half of the novel becomes more serious and tightly plotted. Dickens began writing 'Nickleby' while still working on Oliver Twist and while the mood is considerably lighter, his depiction of the Yorkshire school run by Wackford Squeers is as moving and influential as those of the workhouse and criminal underclass in Twist.
