196 Tage auf treibender Eisscholle / Emil Bessels. - [miejsce nieznane] : e-artnow : Legimi, 2014.
Forma i typ
E-booki
Dieses eBook: "196 Tage auf treibender Eisscholle" ist mit einem detaillierten und dynamischen Inhaltsverzeichnis versehen und wurde sorgfältig korrekturgelesen. Emil Bessels (1847/1888) war ein deutscher Naturforscher und Nordpolfahrer. Er studierte in Jena und in seiner Vaterstadt Naturwissenschaft und Medizin und trat 1869 auf Petermanns Veranlassung mit dem Dampfer Albert seine erste Nordpolfahrt an, um das Östliche Eismeer zwischen Spitzbergen und Nowaja Semlja zu untersuchen und Gillisland zu erforschen. Nur die erste Aufgabe wurde gelöst, da die ungünstigen Eisverhältnisse eine Erforschung von Gillisland nicht zuließen. Indes wurden wichtige hydrographische Arbeiten und eine vollständige Reihe von Seetiefenmessungen vorgenommen sowie zum ersten Mal die Existenz des Golfstroms östlich von Spitzbergen nachgewiesen. 1871 wurde Bessels nach den Vereinigten Staaten berufen, um die wissenschaftliche Leitung der Nordpolexpedition unter Charles Francis Hall zu übernehmen. 1871-1873 drang man in der nördlichen Verlängerung des Smithsundes zu der noch von keinem anderen Schiff erreichten Höhe von 82° 26' nördlicher Breite vor. Jedoch scheiterte das Schiff (Polaris), und alle Sammlungen gingen verloren. Aus der Richtung der Flutwelle und aufgefundenem Walnusstreibholz schloss Bessels auf einen nördlichen Zusammenhang dieses Meeresteils mit dem Beringmeer. Bessels arbeitete anschließend neun Jahre für die Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D. C. Aus dem Buch: "Während Anfang Mai 1873 im "Polaris-Hause" die Vorbereitungen unserer Heimkehr ihrem Ende entgegen gingen, durchlief alle zivilisierten Lande die Nachricht, daß eine kleine Schar Schiffbrüchiger, in Lumpen gehüllt und dem Hungertode nahe, die Hauptstadt Neufundlands erreicht hätte. Diese Unglücklichen waren die neunzehn, welche in jener verhängnisvollen Oktobernacht, als die "Polaris" an der Ostküste des Smith-Sundes in Trümmer ging, von uns getrennt wurden..."

Nach einiger Zeit will Scheherazade, die Tochter des Wesirs, die Frau des Königs werden, um das Morden zu beenden. Sie beginnt, ihm Geschichten zu erzählen; am Ende der Nacht ist sie an einer so spannenden Stelle angelangt, dass der König unbedingt die Fortsetzung hören will und die Hinrichtung aufschiebt.

Dieses eBook: "1812" ist mit einem detaillierten und dynamischen Inhaltsverzeichnis versehen und wurde sorgfältig korrekturgelesen. Ludwig Rellstab (1799-1860) war ein deutscher Journalist, Musikkritiker und Dichter. Zeitweilig benutzte er das Pseudonym Freimund Zuschauer. Neben historischen Romanen, Novellen, Dramen und Reiseschilderungen ist in Rellstabs literarischem Werk die Lyrik stark vertreten. Aus dem Buch: "Jaromir sah ein, daß er jetzt nichts Besseres tun könne als zurückreiten, um Rasinski diese Bestimmungen mitzuteilen. Er tat es im gestreckten Galopp; doch teils weil er nicht genau Bescheid wußte, teils weil die seltsame Beleuchtung ihn täuschte, und endlich weil eine ausrückende Kolonne Artillerie, die eine Querstraße sperrte und ihn so zu einem andern Wege zwang als der, den er gekommen war, verirrte er sich und konnte sich aus einem Gewinde kleiner, sich kreuzender Gassen gar nicht zurecht finden, weil sie immer an andern Punkten ausliefen, als wohin ihn die Richtung, nach der er sie wählte, zu leiten schien."

These stories remain as a vivid autobiographical records and colorful images of a life in the mid-nineteenth century American town. Extract: "If there was any fellow in the Boy's Town fifty years ago who had a good reason to run off it was Pony Baker. Pony was not his real name; it was what the boys called him, because there were so many fellows who had to be told apart, as Big Joe and Little Joe, and Big John and Little John, and Big Bill and Little Bill, that they got tired of telling boys apart that way; and after one of the boys called him Pony Baker, so that you could know him from his cousin Frank Baker, nobody ever called him anything else." William Dean Howells (1837-1920) was an American realist author, literary critic, and playwright. Nicknamed "The Dean of American Letters", he was particularly known for his tenure as editor of the Atlantic Monthly as well as his own prolific writings, including the Christmas story "Christmas Every Day", and the novels The Rise of Silas Lapham and A Traveler from Altruria. Howells is known to be the father of American realism, and a denouncer of the sentimental novel. He was the first American author to bring a realist aesthetic to the literature of the United States. His stories of Boston upper crust life set in the 1850s are highly regarded among scholars of American fiction.

A CHILD OF THE JAGO (Modern Classics Series) / Arthur Morrison. - [miejsce nieznane] : e-artnow : Legimi, 2016.
Forma i typ
E-booki
This carefully crafted ebook: "A CHILD OF THE JAGO (Modern Classics Series)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. A Child of the Jago recounts the brief life of Dicky Perrott, a child growing up in the "Old Jago", a fictionalization of the Old Nichol, a slum located between Shoreditch High Street and Bethnal Green Road in the East End of London. The Jago is a London slum where crime and violence are the only way of life, and from which there is no escape for the inhabitants. At the start of the novel Dicky Perrott is about 8 years old, undernourished and roaming the streets, forced to do whatever it takes in order to survive. Dicky's affectionate nature and willingness to work provides a glimmer of hope that he can escape from the corruption of the Jago, but this hope is cynically thwarted by the avaricious Weech. The criminalizing of innocence in an environment of poverty and crime echoes the predicament of Oliver Twist. Arthur Morrison (1863-1945) was an English writer and journalist known for his realistic novels and stories about working-class life in London's East End, A Child of the Jago being the best known. Morrison is also known for his detective stories, featuring the detective Martin Hewitt, low-key, realistic, lower class answer to Sherlock Holmes. Martin Hewitt stories are similar in style to those of Conan Doyle, cleverly plotted and very amusing, while the character himself is a bit less arrogant and a bit more charming than Holmes.

Nobody has been forgotten, not even the cat," said Mrs. Ward to her daughter, as she looked at Pobbylinda, purring on the rug, with a new ribbon round her neck and the remains of a chicken bone between her paws. It was very late, for the Christmas-tree was stripped, the little folks abed, the baskets and bundles left at poor neighbors' doors, and everything ready for the happy day which would begin as the clock struck twelve. They were resting after their labors, while the yule log burned down; but the mother's words reminded Belinda of one good friend who had received no gift that night."

High on the mountain's side, crowning a thick mass of laurel undergrowth, and flanked by a grove of deep, cool, byana trees, was the building to which my servant was pointing. The material whereof it was fashioned I could not at that distance determine. Only in the broad, tropical sunlight it flashed forth, a glorious and spotless white, as flawless and perfect as the purest marble or alabaster. My fingers began to crave for my pencil. I turned to my guide with beaming face..." (Extract) E. Phillips Oppenheim (1866-1946) was an internationally renowned author of mystery and espionage thrillers. His novels and short stories have all the elements of blood-racing adventure and intrigue and are precursors of modern-day spy fictions.

She wondered what all her superficial friends would say if they knew the truth. She had had her enemies, too, but these she had conquered by sheer force of character. Two years ago she had been unknown to the great world of London, and now she had reached the top of the shimmering flood by sheer fascination and audacity. Yet "All that glitters is not gold," and this brilliant creature was dross to the core." Frederick White (1859–1935), mostly known for mysteries, is considered also as one of the pioneers of the spy story.

This carefully crafted ebook: "A Hero of Romance" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Excerpt: "It was about as miserable an afternoon as one could wish to see. May is the poet's month, but there was nothing of poetry about it then. True, it was early in the month, but February never boasted weather of more unmitigated misery. At half-past two it was so dark in the schoolroom of Mecklemburg House that one could with difficulty see to read. Outside a cold drizzling rain was falling, a shrieking east wind was rattling the windows in their frames, and a sullen haze was hiding the leaden sky. As unsatisfactory a specimen of the English spring as one could very well desire."
