The Haunter of the Dark
¥9.00
The story takes place in Providence, Rhode Island and revolves around the Church of Starry Wisdom. The cult uses an ancient artifact known as the Shining Trapezohedron to summon a terrible being from the depths of time and space. The Shining Trapezohedron was discovered in Egyptian ruins, in a box of alien construction, by Professor Enoch Bowen before he returned to Providence, Rhode Island in 1844. Members of the Church of Starry Wisdom in Providence would awaken the Haunter of the Dark, an avatar of Nyarlathotep, by gazing into the glowing crystal. Summoned from the black gulfs of chaos, this being could show other worlds, other galaxies, and the secrets of arcane and paradoxical knowledge; but he demanded monstrous sacrifices, hinted at by disfigured skeletons that were later found in the church. The Haunter of the Dark was banished by light and could not cross a lighted area.

But still not certain which is truer, he sets out to determine whether the waking ideas of man are superior to his dreams.

Antony and Cleopatra
¥9.00
Antony and Cleopatra is a tragedy by William Shakespeare. It was first printed in the First Folio of 1623. The plot is based on Thomas North's translation of Plutarch's Life of Markus Antonius and follows the relationship between Cleopatra and Mark Antony from the time of the Parthian War to Cleopatra's suicide. The major antagonist is Octavius Caesar, one of Antony's fellow triumvirs and the future first emperor of Rome. The tragedy is a Roman play characterized by swift, panoramic shifts in geographical locations and in registers, alternating between sensual, imaginative Alexandria and the more pragmatic, austere Rome. Many consider the role of Cleopatra in this play one of the most complex female roles in Shakespeare's work. She is frequently vain and histrionic, provoking an audience almost to scorn; at the same time, Shakespeare's efforts invest both her and Antony with tragic grandeur. These contradictory features have led to famously divided critical responses.

Persische Briefe
¥9.00
Die "Lettres persanes" (erste Ausgabe 1721) des franz?sischen Staatsphilosophen der Aufkl?rung Charles-Louis de Secondat, Baron de La Brède de Montesquieu (so sein vollst?ndiger Name) ist eines der wirkm?chtigsten Bücher der Weltliteratur, zugleich eines der erfolgreichsten zu seiner Zeit. Es ist nach der franz?sischen Revolution allerdings zunehmend in den Schatten von Montesquieus Hauptwerk, "De l’esprit des loix" (1748, Vom Geist der Gesetze), getreten, obwohl es im Vergleich zu den politischen Positionen in den Persischen Briefen durchaus als Rückschritt betrachtet werden kann. Im Gegensatz zu dem Hauptwerk gehen die Persischen Briefe unterhaltsam und satirisch an die zentralen Fragestellungen der Zeit heran; wenn man bedenkt, dass es dem Verfasser vor allem darum zu tun gewesen sein soll, mit diesem Text seine Aufnahme in die Academie fran?aise, die er in den Briefen noch dazu geh?rig verspottet, zu erreichen - was ihm auch gelang -, dann dr?ngt sich der Gedanke auf, dass das Selbstinteresse einmal mehr einen Zweck durchgesetzt hat, den es gar nicht vordringlich verfolgte.
