One of the great novelist’s most popular works, Oliver Twist is also the purest distillation of Dickens’s genius. Like most of Dickens’ work, the book is used to call the public’s attention to various contemporary social evils, including the workhouse, child labour and the recruitment of children as criminals. The novel is full of sarcasm and dark humour, even as it treats its serious subject, revealing the hypocrisies of the time. This tale of the orphan who is reared in a workhouse and runs away to London is a novel of social protest, a morality tale, and a detective story. Oliver Twist presents some of the most sinister characters in Dickens: the master thief, Fagin; the leering Artful Dodger; the murderer, Bill Sikes…along with some of his most sentimental and comical characters. Only Dickens can give us nightmare and daydream together. According to George Orwell, “in Oliver Twist…Dickens attacked English institutions with a ferocity that has never since been approached. Yet he managed to do it without making himself hated, and, more than this, the very people he attacked have welcomed him so completely that he has become a national institution himself.” The novel has been the subject of numerous film and television adaptations, and the basis for a highly successful British musical, Oliver!

Hamlet is commonly regarded as one of the greatest plays ever written. Drawing on Danish chronicles and the Elizabethan vogue for revenge tragedy, Shakespeare created a play that is at once a philosophic treatise, a family drama, and a supernatural thriller. In the wake of his father’s death, Prince Hamlet finds that his Uncle Claudius has swiftly taken the throne and married his mother, Queen Gertrude. The ghost of the dead king then appears and charges Claudius with ‘murder most foul.’ Hamlet is called to revenge his father’s death: but will he be able to act before it is too late?

Ez Fabius Petronius Secundus római legionárius és centurió – valamint hadvezére, Scipio Aemilianus – felemelkedésének t?rténete: a makedónok elleni els? csatájától, amely megpecsételi Nagy Sándor birodalmának sorsát, az ?szak-Afrikában vívott, mindenre kiterjed? háborúig és Karthágó ostromáig. Scipio sikerei csodálatot és tiszteletet váltanak ki, de egyben kapzsiságot és féltékenységet is fialnak – legszorosabb sz?vetségeseit?l legelkeseredettebb ellenségeiig. ?s ott van még Julia is, a Caesar családból – a kiszámíthatatlan lány, aki Scipiót szereti, de annak vetélytársával, Paulusszal jegyzeték el –, aki csúf viszály kiváltója lesz. Végül Scipiónak egyetlen kérdésre kell csak válaszolnia: mi mindent képes feláldozni a látomásért, amit Rómáról alkotott?
