Sinopse

In "Fairy Tales from Gold Lands: Second Series," May Wentworth weaves a captivating tapestry of enchanting narratives imbued with the charm and wonder of fairy tale tradition. The collection draws upon elements of folklore, seamlessly blending whimsical storytelling with moral lessons and rich imagery, reflecting the stylistic influences of Victorian literature. Advanced in its exploration of themes such as courage, mystery, and the timeless struggle between good and evil, this second series further expands upon the imaginative landscapes established in its predecessor, inviting readers to traverse both familiar and uncharted territories of the heart and mind. May Wentworth, a lesser-known luminary of the late 19th century, held a passion for literature from a young age, which was further fueled by her exposure to both the natural world and the transformative power of storytelling. Drawing inspiration from her experiences and her keen interest in the evolving genre of children'Äôs literature, Wentworth consciously contributes to the tradition of fairy tales while also bringing a fresh perspective that reflects her contemporary society's values and aspirations. For readers of all ages, "Fairy Tales from Gold Lands: Second Series" serves as an invaluable addition to any literary collection, promising to delight both the young and the young at heart. Wentworth's tales not only entertain but invite reflection on deeper truths of human experience, making this collection an essential read for those who cherish the magic of storytelling.

    WANTED: One Sane Man by Frank M. Robinson - Personnel Incorporated bragged that they could supply a man for any job. Maxwell doubted this, needing a space pilot for the first Lunar trip. Now, if he had just asked for a lunatic... 
    The small man adjusted his bi-focals and stared critically at the huge brass nameplate over the glass entrance doors. The plate read "Personnel Incorporated" in neat, modest lettering. Directly above the plate was a traveling neon sign which informed the public in letters six feet tall that: 
    PERSONNEL CAN SUPPLY THE MAN FOR ANY JOB!—SEVENTY-FIVE PER CENT OF THE PERSONNEL PROBLEMS ON THE AMERICAN CONTINENT ARE HANDLED BY PERSONNEL—DOES YOUR JOB SEEM BORING LATELY? SEE PERSONNEL AND BE PSYCHOLOGICALLY FITTED FOR YOUR WORK!—PERSONNEL CAN SUPPLY THE MAN FOR ANY JOB!—SEVENTY-FIVE PER CENT OF THE.... 
    The small man looked at it for a minute and turned to his tall companion. 
    "Tell me, Maxwell, why the seventy-five? Why not eighty or eighty-three?" 
    Maxwell glanced up at the sign. "If they do seventy-six per cent or more of the business, they're a monopoly. It must pain Whiteford to have to hold himself down to only seventy-five." 
    "Whiteford?" 
    Maxwell looked surprised. "You haven't heard of him? The newest boy wonder in the business world? He's the genius who runs this modern slave market." He looked at his watch. "And, incidentally, he's also the guy we've got an appointment with in five minutes."

    Emerson's enduring reputation, however, is as a philosopher, an aphoristic writer (like Friedrich Nietzsche) and a quintessentially American thinker whose championing of the American Transcendental movement and influence on Walt Whitman, Henry David Thoreau, William James, and others would alone secure him a prominent place in American cultural history. Emerson is often characterized as an idealist philosopher and indeed used the term himself of his philosophy, explaining it simply as a recognition that plan always precedes action.
