Beschreibung

First published in 1925, set 'one Wednesday in mid-June', Mrs Dalloway charts the lives of several characters across a day in London. While Clarissa Dalloway goes about preparing for a high-society party she is to host that evening, pondering on her childhood and marriage, nearby Septimus Warren Smith, a First World War veteran, is plagued with memories of the war and of his friend who never returned.
Weaving a multitude of voices and eras into one, dressed in the most beautiful of language, Mrs Dalloway has earned its reputation as one of the most iconic novels of the twentieth century and great successes of Modernist fiction.
This edition also contains 'Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street', the short story upon which the novel is modelled.
Verfügbar seit: 15.06.2022.

    A study of Islamic fundamentalism, its violent and deadly history, and the questions it raises today. This book examines the relationship between jihad and genocide, past and present. Richard L. Rubenstein takes a close look at the violent interpretations of jihad and how they have played out in the past hundred years, from the Armenian genocide through current threats to Israel. Rubenstein’s unflinching study of the potential for fundamentalist jihad to initiate targeted violence raises pressing questions in a time when questions of religious co-existence, particularly in the Middle East, are discussed urgently each day. Praise for Jihad and Genocide“Provocative, important reading for all interested in Arab-Israeli peace and religious coexistence worldwide. Highly recommended.” —Choice Reviews“Rubenstein’s analysis stands the test of time. Thus, attention must be paid to Rubenstein's new work, Jihad and Genocide, which offers a searing analysis of Islamic thought and bleak predictions of its impact. Even those of us who do not share his pessimism, his sense of the inevitability of the path to genocide and war, or his predilection for the political right, must confront the issues he raises.” —Foreword Reviews

    Special Powers: Civil War...

    The untold story of Ireland's forgotten prisoners. In the shadow of civil war, over 5,500 republican prisoners found themselves trapped behind the wire at Newbridge Barracks and the Curragh internment camps — imprisoned by former comrades who had once fought alongside them against the British. There, they discovered a bitter truth and a regime that answered defiance with execution and brutality. Their old allies in the Free State forces proved far more ruthless captors than their colonial predecessors had ever been. While no prisoners had died under British custody during the War of Independence, over two dozen internees would lose their lives at the hands of their ex-brothers-in-arms. Among the internees were men who would make their mark on Irish history, including unrepentant republicans and writers such as Ernie O'Malley and Peadar O'Donnell, as well as Seán Lemass, future Taoiseach, and John Higgins, the father of President Michael D. Higgins. Despite the harsh realities of camp life, the prisoners' spirit remained unbroken. Two legendary escapes followed — 112 men tunnelling to freedom out of Newbridge Barracks, then 71 more from Tintown Camp. The internees staged Ireland's largest hunger strike and maintained their resistance even as their captors' brutality reached the highest levels of government. Drawing on primary sources and firsthand accounts, historian James Durney reveals how the final battles of the Civil War were fought not on battlefields, but in the jails and camps where former comrades became bitter enemies — a dark chapter in Irish history that has remained hidden for too long.

Through relatable examples and practical strategies, listeners learn to deliberately slow down their thought processes and become aware of their filters in various situations.
