Parent pauvre de la philosophie classique qui se reclame du pouvoir de la raison, l`imagination y est toujours suspecte et accusee de perturber le parfait travail de l`entendement. Malebranche, s`il ne rehabilite pas pleinement cette faculte, puisqu`il y voit le signe de la chute de l`homme, en propose cependant une theorie originale, qui tranche sur les conceptions de ses contemporains. Cette edition permet d`en prendre la mesure. Формат: 10,5 см x 17,5 см.

Most moviegoers associate actor Robert De Niro with adjectives like intense, violent, streetwise, and brooding. It is an image that De Niro has carefully nurtured over the last fifty years of his career. He used gesture, voice, and, most importantly, his mesmerizing eyes to convey to the audience the disturbing emotions with which he imbued his characters, from his earliest films like "Mean Streets" through classic portraits of violent, disaffected men like Travis Bickle in "Taxi Driver" and Jake La Motta in "Raging Bull" to the maniacal father in "Meet the Parents". For in De Niros world, art and reality are often indistinguishable. "Movie Icons" is a series of photo books that feature the most famous personalities in the history of...

Although Dead Souls (1842) was largely composed by Gogol during self-imposed exile in Italy in the late 1830s, his last work remains to this day the most essentially Russian of all the great novels in Russian literature. As we follow its hero Chichikov, a dismissed civil servant turned confidence man, about the Russian countryside in pursuit of his shady enterprise, there unfolds before us a gallery of characters worthy in comic range of Chaucer, Rabelais, Fielding, and Sterne. With its rich and ebullient language, ironic twists, and startling juxtapositions, Dead Souls stands as one of the most unusual and poetic masterpieces of the nineteenth century. This new translation by Christopher English includes the surviving chapters and...

You’ve probably heard of Lord Horatio Nelson. He is dead famous for: courageously winning the Battle of Trafalgar, carelessly losing and arm and an eye – and being stuck up a very high column! But did you know that Horatio nearly got killed by a polar bear, ate rats and maggots, and was pickled in a barrel of brandy? Yes – even though he’s dead, he’s still full of surprises!
