Daniel Defoe's faith-filled The Further Adventures of Robinson Crusoe finds Crusoe bored with his prosperity and consumed by an irresistible longing to return to the island he left many years before. Along with his trusty servant and companion, Friday, he embarks on a harrowing high-seas adventure that takes them to China, over the Russian steppes, and into Siberia. Readers will find themselves captivated by this sequel, which is every bit as engaging as the original.

This volume collects the complete works of Edgar Allan Poe (Wikipedia).

This collection of Japanese fairy tales is the outcome of a suggestion made to me indirectly through a friend by Mr. Andrew Lang. They have been translated from the modern version written by Sadanami Sanjin. These stories are not literal translations, and though the Japanese story and all quaint Japanese expressions have been faithfully preserved, they have been told more with the view to interest young readers of the West than the technical student of folk-lore. Grateful acknowledgment is due to Mr. Y. Yasuoka, Miss Fusa Okamoto, my brother Nobumori Ozaki, Dr. Yoshihiro Takaki, and Miss Kameko Yamao, who have helped me with translations. The story which I have named "The Story of the Man who did not Wish to Die" is taken from a little book written a hundred years ago by one Shinsui Tamenaga. It is named Chosei Furo, or "Longevity." "The Bamboo-cutter and the Moon-child" is taken from the classic "Taketari Monogatari," and is NOT classed by the Japanese among their fairy tales, though it really belongs to this class of literature. ? In telling these stories in English I have followed my fancy in adding such touches of local color or description as they seemed to need or as pleased me, and in one or two instances I have gathered in an incident from another version. At all times, among my friends, both young and old, English or American, I have always found eager listeners to the beautiful legends and fairy tales of Japan, and in telling them I have also found that they were still unknown to the vast majority, and this has encouraged me to write them for the children of the West. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Y. T. O. ? MY LORD BAG OF RICE ? "Long, long ago there lived, in Japan a brave warrior known to all as Tawara Toda, or "My Lord Bag of Rice." His true name was Fujiwara Hidesato, and there is a very interesting story of how he came to change his name. One day he sallied forth in search of adventures, for he had the nature of a warrior and could not bear to be idle. So he buckled on his two swords, took his huge bow, much taller than himself, in his hand, and slinging his quiver on his back started out. He had not gone far when he came to the bridge of Seta-no-Karashi spanning one end of the beautiful Lake Biwa. No sooner had he set foot on the bridge than he saw lying right across his path a huge serpent-dragon. Its body was so big that it looked like the trunk of a large pine tree and it took up the whole width of the bridge. One of its huge claws rested on the parapet of one side of the bridge, while its tail lay right against the other. The monster seemed to be asleep, and as it breathed, fire and smoke came out of its nostrils. ? At first Hidesato could not help feeling alarmed at the sight of this horrible reptile lying in his path, for he must either turn back or walk right over its body. He was a brave man, however, and putting aside all fear went forward dauntlessly. Crunch, crunch! he stepped now on the dragon's body, now between its coils, and without even one glance backward he went on his way. .."

A Blackwater napjaink legrejtélyesebb és legellentmondásosabb vállalata. A korábban a SEAL-nél, az amerikai haditengerészet elit alakulatánál szolgáló Eric Prince által 1997-ben alapított vállalkozás olyan, kül?nleges katonai alakulatoktól leszerelt veteránok és civilek toborzásával és kiképzésével foglalkozott, akik elég képzettek és bátrak voltak ahhoz, hogy elvállalják a világ legveszélyesebb ?rz?-véd? feladatait. A cég hírnevével együtt n?tt a szolgáltatásai iránti kereslet, olyannyira, hogy a Blackwater emberei ?sszesen k?zel százezer küldetést hajtottak végre Irakban és Afganisztánban. A cég a Bush- és az Obama-kormányzat számára is nélkül?zhetetlennek bizonyult. Ezek alapján klasszikus üzleti sikert?rténetnek is t?nhetne a Blackwater sorsának alakulása, csakhogy volt valami, ami beárnyékolta a sikert: a cég ellen zajló világméret? lejárató hadjárat. Az egy kaptafára íródott híradásokban és a valóságot durván elferdít? regényekben és filmekben a Blackwater alkalmazottait hol zsoldosoknak, hol gátlástalan profitvadászoknak, hol pedig primitív, er?szakos vadállatoknak állították be. Mivel a Pentagonnal, a Külügyminisztériummal és a CIA-val k?t?tt szerz?dései titoktartásra k?telezték, Prince kénytelen volt csendben t?rni, ahogy ellenfelei zavartalanul terjesztik a téves információkat róla és a vállalkozásáról. Most azonban végre elmondhatja a cég felemelkedésének és bukásának teljes és gyakran megd?bbent? t?rténetét. Az Amerika szolgálatában Prince kíméletlen ?szinteséggel meséli el a Blackwater-sztori minden részletét. Prince nem próbálja hibátlannak beállítani magát, és nem hallgatja el magánélete néha fájdalmas részleteit sem, ugyanakkor nagy szolgálatot tesz a k?zvéleménynek azzal, hogy tiszta vizet ?nt a pohárba. Az Amerika szolgálatában t?rténete izgalmas, akár egy thrilleré, de valószer?tlenebb, mint amit a képzelet alkothat.

　　普通高等教育“十一五”*规划教材《俄语阅读教程》（全套六册）自面世以来，承蒙全国诸多高校俄语专业广大师生的厚爱，先后多次重印，2011年还被评为江苏省高等学校精品教材。在本次印刷之际，我们应出版社之约对本套教程的课文内容和编写体例都做了全面修订。本次修订的主要依据是全国高等学校外国语言类专业教学指导委员会俄语专业教学指导分委会编写的第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》（2012年）。《俄语阅读教程（1-2册）》分别供高校本科生二年级第1和第2学期阅读课教学使用，也适用于掌握2000个单词、并初步通晓俄语语法基础知识的俄语自学者。 　　本教程的课文全部选自俄罗斯新近出版的书籍和报刊，选材新颖，内容广博，题材广泛，既有贴近大学生校园生活的题材，如俄罗斯大学生的学习、生活和流行时尚等，也有为人们所广泛关注的俄罗斯风俗习惯、文学艺术、科学技术、社会生活、婚姻家庭、教育体制、人口问题、政治人物、历史文化等方面的素材。课文以反映俄罗斯现实生活为主，同时兼顾文化传统内容。这样可以将语言学习贯穿在了解现实生活和文化传统知识的过程中，贯穿在思考和探讨与之相关的各种问题的过程中。课文内容新颖，趣味性强，语言规范、贴近生活、实用性强。课文体裁多样，既有童话故事、幽默小说、人物传记等文学作品，又有记叙、说明、议论、公文、访谈等其他样式，语体兼顾书面语和口语。 　　本套（两册）教程均由14个单元组成，每个单元包括两篇（或两篇以上）同一主题、但语料不同的课文。我们根据由浅深、循序渐的原则编排单元。除了测试单元只配有课文导读和练习外，其他每个单元都分为五个部分，结构如下： 　　1）课文导读：每一单元的篇都有一段简短的导读，扼要说明课文将涉及的主题。目的在于提高阅读兴趣，让学生带着问题去阅读。 　　2）课文：每个单元的课文分为两部分：*课为基本课文，第二课为补充课文。基本课文供学生课前阅读，教师在课堂上通过练习检验学生对课文内容和某些常用词语的掌握程度，并行必要的讲解。补充课文供学生当堂阅读。对基本课文的材料要求学生行“细读”，而补充课文的材料则要求学生“略读”即可。基本课文和补充课文篇幅平均为1000-1200词，每课课文的阅读时间均应控制在半小时以内。为了适当降低阅读难度，以便学生顺利阅读，我们还在课文中添加了必要的脚注。 　　3）生词注解：我们以第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》附录八中的词汇为基本依据列出生词。生词用中文释义，给出的是单词在上下文中的意思。对课文中用于转义的一些常用词汇，我们依次列出其转义和本义。课文平均生词率不超过3%。 　　4）固定词组和短语表：我们以第二版《高等学校俄语专业教学大纲》附录九中的熟语为依据列出固定词组和短语。表中的词组和短语用中文释义。对含有多个义项的常用词组和短语，我们依次列出上下文义及其他义项。 　　5）练习题：练习的设计从有利于提高学生的阅读理解能力和好语言基础的角度出发，采用选择题、填空题、问答题、连线题、判断题和翻译题等多种题型结合的方式。重检验学生对课文内容和某些常用词语的掌握程度。在题型上考虑学生参加四级水平测试的实际需要，设计了部分针对四级测试的练习，以帮助学生逐渐熟悉统测形式。需要说明的是，补充课文的练习是针对学生的“略读”方法而设计的，因此我们在补充课文的练习中只编排了对错选择和问答这两种题型。 　　两册的*后一个单元皆为测试单元。其课文篇幅及其生词率，都是根据大纲规定的具体要求行设计的。各篇课文的阅读时间均应控制在三十分钟之内。

The Ismay Line charts the rise and fall of one of the most eminent British shipping companies - and tells the story of the family behind it. The founder of the White Star Line, T H Ismay, pioneered a revolutionary design of iron steamships, built for him by Harland & Wolff of Belfast. By the time of his death in 1899 he had become the most successful steamship owner in the world. He was succeeded by his son, Bruce Ismay, who in April 1912 was aboard his latest ship, Titanic, when it collided with an iceberg on its maiden voyage. Ismay survived by boarding the last lifeboat to leave the starboard side of the sinking liner: and thus began one of the greatest witch-hunts of modern times. The Ismay Line draws on many previously unpublished family diaries and correspondence and offers a robust defence of Bruce Ismay's conduct. Originally published in 1961, the book has been out of print for many years and is now a sought-after collector's item.
