Theodore Dreiser was an American novelist and journalist of the naturalist school. His novels often featured main characters who succeeded at their objectives despite a lack of a firm moral code, and literary situations that more closely resemble studies of nature than tales of choice andagency. Dreiser's best known novels include Sister Carrie and An American Tragedy. Dreiser also wrote short stories, publishing his first collection Free and Other Stories in 1918.

Featuring a vivid selection from biographies, novels, letters, poems, diaries and memoirs, this volume traces the story of St Petersburg from earliest times. Through these pieces, readers can observe the city's foundation by Peter the Great on the marshy shores of the Gulf of Finland; see how literature and the other arts flowered during the nineteenth century; and observe the often violent turning points of its later history. First-hand accounts tell of the 1825 Decembrists standing in the snow in Senate Square, refusing to accept Nicholas I as Tsar, being shot down where they stood; of the imprisonment of Dostoevsky and the duel that killed Pushkin; of the last moments of the mad Emperor Paul; and of the storming of the Winter Palace by the crowd in 1917. Many more historic scenes are witnessed by such diverse characters as Tolstoy, Catherine the Great and a voluble maid-servant of Irish descent. Designed for on-the-spot use by visitors to the city, and as a highly readable anthology for the armchair traveller, this Traveller's Reader includes maps, engravings and notes on history, art, architecture and city life.

AD 9: In the depths of the Teutoburg Wald, in a landscape riven by ravines, darkened by ancient oak and bisected by fast-flowing streams, Arminius of the Cherusci led a confederation of six Germanic tribes in the annihilation of three Roman legions. Deep in the forest almost 20,000 men were massacred without mercy; fewer than 200 of them ever made it back across the Rhine. To Rome's shame, three sacred Eagles were lost that day. But Arminius wasn't brought up in Germania Magna—he had been raised as a Roman. This is the story of how Arminius came to turn his back on the people who raised him and went on to commit a betrayal so great and so deep, it echoed through the ages.

Questo libro racconta la vita di Marguerite Duras, dall'infanzia, quando è per tutti Nené, agli anni centrali in cui gli amici più intimi, come Jeanne Moreau, Godard, Depardieu, Lacan, la chiamano Margot, fino al delirio megalomane e alcolico della vecchiaia in cui la scrittrice parla di sé in terza persona autocitandosi con il solo cognome: Duras. È la storia di una vita irripetibile che si è intrecciata al colonialismo, alla Resistenza, al Partito comunista francese - con l'adesione prima, la ribellione e l'espulsione poi - al 68, al femminismo, all'Ecole du Regard, alla Nouvelle Vague. La storia di una donna dai moltissimi aggrovigliati amori e di una scrittrice e cineasta che, dopo la vittoria al Goncourt e il successo del romanzo ispirato al suo primo amore - L'amante - ha conquistato, suo malgrado, una sterminata folla di lettori. La storia, infine, dei trionfi e delle sconfitte di questa donna, del suo corpo a corpo con la letteratura, della sua autenticità e delle sue mistificazioni, del doloroso attraversamento dell'alcolismo, dei deliri dovuti alla disintossicazione, della sua capacità d'innamorarsi e di giocare coi sentimenti e con le parole fino all'ultimo soffio di vita. Per scoprire, infine, che nessun riconoscimento, nessuna turbinosa passione potevano guarirla dal male di vivere, dalle lontane ferite infantili e dalla lucidità con cui, in vecchiaia, avrebbe compreso che "nessun amore vale l'amore" o che "scrivere non insegna altro che a scrivere".

Ricordi quando vivevi nel migliore dei mondi possibili, e non te ne accorgevi neanche? Quando eri certo che il futuro sarebbe stato migliore del presente. Quando sapevi che i tuoi figli avrebbero trovato lavoro a un chilometro da casa. Quando potevi sognare senza sembrare un illuso. Quando dovevi sforzarti per accorgerti della disoccupazione. Quando il terrorismo sembrava un relitto del passato. Quando il concetto stesso di immigrazione pareva sul punto di perdere significato, perché stavamo per andare a vivere in un mondo unico, in cui le piccole aziende non chiudevano, le banche non fallivano, centinaia di migliaia di persone non perdevano il lavoro e non si moriva affogati pur di arrivare in Italia.

Throughout the twentieth century, ceramics was broadly divided into two sectors. Studio pottery, which was a reaction against the mass-made wares of the industrial revolution, and fine art by contemporary artists, who just happened to use clay in their practice but rejected many of its traditional codes of practice. The unprecedented surge in popularity of ceramics in the last five years has helped forge a new type of potter: the ceramic designer. Part-craftsman, part designer, they bridge ceramic craft, collectable design, and fine art. These ceramicists include product designers who use clay as a means of creative expression, and classically trained potters who create design-led pieces, in addition to interior decorators, illustrators, and graphic designers. Their collective output includes furniture, decorative objects, murals, and vessels: not art, not craft, but design. The ambition of the book is to show the diversity of this area of creative production and the way in which history, craft, technology, and design are all intersecting in the present day, creating a new type of designer and a new type of ceramicist. The book is divided into four thematic chapters and accompanied by written contributions on the subject from designers, decorators, and collectors.
