Story5 out of 5 stars 1
En 1571, tras sufrir un accidente montando a caballo, Michel de Montaigne abandona su posición como magistrado de Burdeos para retirarse a su castillo y empezar a escribir. Ese es el inicio, casi novelesco, de una de las obras más importantes de la cultura occidental. «No enseño ni adoctrino, lo que hago es relatar», afirma Montaigne. Y entretanto dialoga con los pensadores clásicos sobre todo tipo de cuestiones relativas a la condición humana.

Después de Obra abierta, en la que estudiaba los lenguajes experimentales del arte contemporáneo, y de Apocalípticos e integrados, donde abordaba las técnicas y los temas de la comunicación de masas, Umberto Eco analiza aquí las fronteras de la semiótica. Comprender los sistemas de signos obliga a ver los códigos como estructuras y explicarlas a través de otras estructuras más vastas, en un movimiento regresivo hacia la matriz originaria de toda comunicación, hasta llegar a una estructura no estructurada.

En un aserradero perdido en los bosques del Franco Condado, un joven seminarista despreciado por su ruda familia, lleno de sueños y ambiciones, lee un libro. Poco sospecha que su vida está a punto de dar un giro decisivo y que su entrada como preceptor en casa de monsieur de Rênal será el comienzo de su apertura al amor, a la vida y, finalmente, al crimen.

"Desconcertante, lista a inquietar a la crítica, está ya en los escaparates la primera novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo, que transcurre en una serie de transposiciones oníricas, ahondando más allá de la muerte de sus personajes, que uno no sabe en qué momento son sueño, vida, fábula, verdad, pero a los que se les oye la voz al través de la perspicacia despiadada y certera de tan sin duda extraordinario escritor". Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

Edgar Allan Poe fue un gran escritor romántico y precursor de simbolismos, decadentistas y estilistas, fue, al tiempo que un gran poeta, un verdadero iniciador. Aún hoy géneros literarios tan consagrados como la narrativa fantástica y de ciencia ficción, la narrativa policial o la novela de aventuras llevan su impronta inconfundible. Fascinado por la muerte y por todas las formas del terror, dio lo mejor de su talento en sus cuentos de misterio, manifestando además un vibrante interés por lo ridículo y absurdo.

Stefan Zweig trabajó más de veinte años en Momentos estelares de la humanidad. El libro reúne catorce momentos históricos retratados por Zweig, fundamentales desde su punto de vista para el transcurso de la historia. El asesinato de Cicerón, la expedición fallida al Polo Sur del capitán Scott y la fiebre del oro de California en 1848 son solo algunos de estos relatos que ilustran la visión del mundo que tenía Zweig, que apela a los procedimientos narrativos de sus novelas para dar vida a narraciones que siempre oscilan entre lo ficcional y lo fáctico.

Cuando Newton formuló la ley de la gravedad, unificó las reglas que rigen los cielos y la Tierra. Hoy el mayor desafío de la física es encontrar una síntesis de las dos grandes teorías, basadas en principios matemáticos diferentes: la de la relatividad y la cuántica. Combinarlas sería el mayor logro de la ciencia, una profunda fusión de todas las fuerzas de la naturaleza en una hermosa y magnífica ecuación que nos permitiría comprender los misterios más profundos del universo.

Publisher's summary
Los cuentos de un escritor esencial en la tradición literaria francesa y europea, imprescindibles.
Traducción de José Ramón Monreal
Selección de Marie-Helène Badoux
El portentoso talento de Maupassant, discípulo literario de Flaubert y miembro relevante del grupo de jóvenes escritores naturalistas que se formó alrededor de Zola, encontró su forma ideal en el cuento, género que consolidó y renovó, y en el que no tiene rival. Realista, romántico, fantasmagórico, terrorífico, fantástico o poético, Maupassant transitó en sus cuentos por todos los caminos de la imaginación.
La presente edición recoge los relatos esenciales de su narrativa e incorpora muchas piezas que habían circulado poco o nada en nuestro idioma.
La crítica ha dicho...
«Estos Cuentos esenciales proporcionan un placer tan seguro como desasosegante.»
Manuel Hidalgo, El Mundo

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson. Before they were household names, these budding legends called Sue’s Nashville apartment—lovingly dubbed the “Boar’s Nest”—home. Sue’s place was an intimate staging ground where a new breed of singer-songwriters—wounded souls, wayward upstarts—would spur each other on to tap into something bigger, realer.

Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.
