Life Of Pi, Illustrated
¥86.33
After the tragic sinking of a cargo ship, one solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the wild, blue Pacific. The only survivors from the wreck are a sixteen-year-old boy named Pi, a hyena, a zebra with a broken leg, a female orang-utan - and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger. Since it was first published in 2002, Life of Pi has entered mainstream consciousness and remains one of the most extraordinary works of fiction in recent years. In October 2005 Canongate launched a competition with The Times to find an artist to illustrate Yann Martel's international bestseller.

Pacific (The Official HBO/Sky TV Tie-In)
¥78.38
Sidney C. Philips, an easygoing Alabama teenager, enlisted along with a friend. 'Manila John' Basilone was the son of immigrants who found happiness in the rough-and-ready life of a marine. Eugene B. Sledge watched his best friend and brother go off to war - and finally rebelled against his parents to follow them. 'Shifty' Shofner was the scion of a prominent family with a long record of military service. Ensign Vernon 'Mike' Micheel left the family farm to complete flight school. Between America's retreat from China in late 1941 and the moment that MacArthur's plane landed in Japan in August 1945, these five men fought many of the key battles of the war in the Pacific. Here, Hugh Ambrose focuses on their real-life experiences and those of their fellow servicemen, enhancing and expanding upon the story told in the HBO miniseries. Covering nearly four years of combat with unprecedented access to military records, letters, journals, memoirs, photographs and interviews, this volume offers a unique historical perspective on the war against Japan, from the debacle in Bataan to the miracle of Midway, the relentless vortex of Guadalcanal, the black terraces of Iwo Jima and the killing fields of Okinawa - and ultimately the triumphant yet uneasy return home. These are the true stories of the men who put their lives on the line for their country, who were dispatched to the other side of the world to fight an enemy who preferred suicide to surrender; men who suffered hardship and humiliation in POW camps; men who witnessed casualties among soldiers and civilians alike; and men whose medals came at a shocking price - a price paid in full by all.

Tarzan The Untamed
¥35.22
Edgar Rice Burroughs was born on September 1, 1875, in Chicago, Illinois. His early career was unremarkable. After failing to enter West Point he enlisted in the 7th Calvary but was discharged after heart problems were diagnosed. A series of short term jobs gave no indication as to a career path but finally, in 1911, married and with two young children, he turned his hand to writing. He aimed his works squarely at the very popular pulp serial magazines. His first effort 'Under The Moons Of Mars' ran in Munsey's Magazine in 1912 under the pseudonym Norman Bean. With its success he began writing full time. A continuing theme of his work was to develop series so that each character had ample opportunities to return in sequels. John Carter was in the Mars series and there was another on Venus and one on Pellucidar among others. But perhaps the best known is Tarzan. Indeed Burroughs wanted so much to capitalise upon the brand that he introduced a syndicated Tarzan comic strip, movies and merchandise. He purchased a large ranch north of Los Angeles, California, which he named "e;Tarzana."e; The surrounding communities outside the ranch voted in 1927 to adopt the name as their own. By 1932 Burroughs set up his own company to print his own books. Here we publish the seventh in the Tarzan series 'Tarzan the Untamed'. Another cultural classic.
Tragedy Of Pompey The Great - Life, a beauty chased by tragic laughter.
¥32.86
John Edward Masefield was born in 1878 in the sleepy market town of Ledbury in rural Hertfordshire. An idyllic childhood was ruined when he was left an orphan and sent to live with an Aunt who decided his education and life would be better spent at sea. At age 13 he boarded a school ship and there his love of writing and reading blossomed. By 1899 he began to publish and apart from brief service during World War I he now had a life of writing and lecture tours. He published much; novels, poetry and even an account of the disastrous war effort in the Dardanelles at Gallipoli. Upon the death of Robert Bridges in 1930, Masefield was given the prestigious position of Poet Laureate, a role he would fulfill until his death; the only poet to hold the position for a longer period was Alfred, Lord Tennyson. Despite later ill health and the death of his wife in 1960, Masefield continued to write. In 1966, he published his last book of poems, In Glad Thanksgiving, at the age of 88. In the latter part of 1966 gangrene was diagnosed in his ankle. This gradually spread through his leg and claimed his life on May 12, 1967. He was cremated and his ashes placed in the Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey. Here we present The Tragedy Of Pompey The Great.

Este un autoportret al cunoa?terii personale, un autoportret schi?at ?n timp real, sub ochii cititorului, pe m?sura ce Lara ia cuno?tin?? de st?rile emo?ionale prin care trece, ??i analizeaz? sentimentele, rezultatul posibilelor ac?iuni, analizeaz? deciziile pe care le ia, consecin?ele posibile. Dilema declarat? a Larei este: cum ?mpaci nevoia inimii pentru noutate, pentru tr?iri spontane, cu monotonia mariajului, chiar dac? acesta e fericit? Con?tiin?a sa este prins? ?ntre dragostea pentru so?ul cu care ?tie c? se potrive?te ca structur? ?i pe care ?l iube?te, ?i efervescen?a aventurii cu un alt b?rbat, care ?i furnizeaz? spontanul dup? care t?nje?te.

Perioada ?n care este creat ?i definitivat autoportretul sunt ultimii ai comunismului, anii ?n care priva?iunile impuse popula?iei sem?nau mai degrab? cu priva?iunile unui r?zboi. Cu toate acestea, eroina se concentreaz? cu ?nc?p???nare pe iubirea ei, pe mi?c?rile sufletului ei, refugiindu-se ?n tr?irile proprii ?i reu?ind astfel s? se salveze de autocomp?timire ?i s? supravie?uiasc? ?ntr-o aparent? normalitate.

Vrnd s fac un dar poeilor romni – de la care n tineree am primit inestimabile daruri, Nichita, Cezar, Grigore – am ndrznit o versiune romneasc a intraductibilelor i abstruselor poeme rilkeene. Mostre supreme ale unui discurs poetic somnambulic, desfidnd nu numai logica i sintaxa curent dar i cea poetic, aceste Elegii… sunt, cred eu, un vrf dac nu un monument al spiritualitii moderne europene. Sunt fericit ca limba romn a strmoilor mei i a marilor poei romni a primit i a putut cuprinde arta poetului austriac, ce se clatin i cuvnt ntr-un aer de o tensiune insuportabil, ntre Pindar i Holderlin, un monument de vrf inegalabil, cu siguran, al creaiei europene.“ (Nicolae Breban)

Drept cadru general al discu?iei noastre propun o poetic? a traducerii. Dup? p?rerea mea, aceast? disciplin? – al c?rei teritoriu ?nc?lca (ba chiar ??nc?leca“) domeniile lingvisticii teoretice ?i aplicate, teoriei literaturii ?i crea?iei literare – se pliaz? pe modelul actului comunic?rii. Dup? cum se ?tie, actul respectiv implic? un produc?tor de mesaje, mesajul sau textul produs ?i un receptor sau lector (care arareori e unul cu totul pasiv; cel mai adesea el exercit? func?ia de interpret al mesajului ori textului).S? observ?m acum c? procesul traducerii este compus de fapt din dou? acte de comunicare ?nl?n?uite, dintre care primul se desf??oara ?n spa?iul limbii ?i culturii de plecare, adica al Limbii sursa, iar cel?lalt ?n sfera limbii ?i culturii de destina?ie, altfel spus a Limbii ?int?. Traduc?torul reprezint? veriga de leg?tura dintre cele dou? segmente, c?ci lui ?i incumb? at?t lectura ?i interpretarea textului surs?, c?t ?i producerea textului ?int?.

Om politic liberal mai pu?in cunoscut, Gheorghe D.

Din acest moment via?a lui devine public? ?i intr? ?n v?ltoarea luptelor politice. ?n acela?i an, al?turi de C.A. Rosetti a sus?inut colegiul unic ?i libertatea absolut? a presei.

Nou? nu ne r?m?ne dec?t s? ar?t?m c? am considerat ca notele s? fie c?t se poate de complete, persoanele ?i locurile fiind foarte numeroase, f?r? de care, chiar un cititor avizat nu s-ar descurca. Iat? de ce am recurs la solu?ia de a desp?r?i notele de indicele de nume. Trebuie, de asemenea, s? atragem aten?ia c? notele sunt a?ezate alfabetic, deoarece tot volumul ar fi fost prea ?nc?rcat de numere ?i cifre. Sper?m c? modesta noastr? contribu?ie prin editarea acestui jurnal s? ?mplineasc? un scurt moment din fr?m?ntata noastr? istorie politic? a Rom?niei de la sf?r?itul secolului al XIX-lea.
