Forgoing the narratives of the sea that prevailed in his earlier works, Melville’s later fiction contains some of the finest and many of his keenest and bleakest observations of life, not on the high seas, but at home in America. With the publication of this Library of America volume, the third of three volumes, all Melville’s fiction has now been restored to print for the first time.Pierre; or, The Ambiguities, published in 1852 (the year after Moby-Dick), moves between the idyllic Berkshire countryside and the nightmare landscape of early New York City. Its hero, a young American patrician trying to redeem the secret sins of his father, elopes to the city, discovers Bohemian life, attempts a literary epic, and struggles his way through incest, murder, and madness. Long a controversial work, it is Melville’s darkest satire of American life and letters and one of his most powerful books.A pivotal work, both for Melville’s career and for American literature, Pierre was followed by Israel Potter, the story of a veteran of the Revolution, victim of a thousand mischances, and a long-suffering exile in England. Along the way are memorable episodes of war and intrigue, with personal portraits of Benjamin Franklin, John ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A new, definitive edition of Herman Melville’s virtuosic short stories—American classics wrought with scorching fury, grim humor, and profound beauty  Though best-known for his epic masterpiece Moby-Dick, Herman Melville also left a body of short stories arguably unmatched in American fiction. In the sorrowful tragedy of Billy Budd, Sailor; the controlled rage of Benito Cereno; and the tantalizing enigma of Bartleby, the Scrivener; Melville reveals himself as a singular storyteller of tremendous range and compelling power. In these stories, Melville cuts to the heart of race, class, capitalism, and globalism in America, deftly navigating political and social issues that resonate as clearly in our time as they did in Melville’s. Also including The Piazza Tales in full, this collection demonstrates why Melville stands not only among the greatest writers of the nineteenth century, but also as one of our greatest contemporaries.  This Penguin Classics edition features the Reading Text of Billy Budd, Sailor, as edited from a genetic study of the manuscript by Harrison Hayford and Merton M. Sealts, Jr., and the authoritative Northwestern-Newberry text of The Piazza Tales.  For more than sixty-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. ...

• A fascinating picture of the impact of the German Romantic landscape painter''s art on his contemporaries • Visionary, disconcerting, enthralling: Caspar David Friedrich’s art mined a vein of feeling completely new in painting • Never before available in English, these reminiscences of the painter and assessments of his path-breaking art include texts by some of the greatest names of the German Romantic movement – Goethe, Kleist, the painter Carus, the psychologist Schubert – as well as Friedrich’s own Commandments of Art, and letters by the Russian poet Zhukovsky Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), one of the great visionaries of European art, spent all his life in Northern Germany, apart from four years studying in Copenhagen, and his output appears to consist almost entirely of German landscapes. But far from being parochial, he was, in the words of the French sculptor David d’Angers, the artist who ‘discovered the tragic in landscape’. His paintings assemble minutely observed elements of nature into compo-sitions that celebrate the riches and the melancholy of a cosmos fully imbued with the divine, while never losing an almost hallucinatory engagement with reality. For all their clarity, they are the quintessence of Romanticism. Almost too familiar today, to Friedrich’s ... Unknown localization key: "more"

250 years after the painter's birth, this luxurious exhibition catalog offers glimpses into the mystery of Friedrich's largely posthumous popularity as well as the latest research into his training and techniques. Largely ignored during his lifetime, Caspar David Friedrich was a meticulous painter of emotionally evocative landscapes, often featuring solitary figures or groups of people against dramatic scenery. His work inspired many artists until today. This volume explores the role that Berlin's Nationalgalerie played in bringing Friedrich into the forefront of modern art history. It also shines light into Friedrich's remarkable use of pairs in paintings-including his most famous pairing, Monk by the Sea and Abbey in the Oakwood- which he employed to express a range of different perspectives and the concept of change. Finally it examines the latest research into Friedrich's technique: his early training in Copenhagen; his sketches, preparatory drawings and underdrawings; and his unconventional selection and use of pigments. Throughout this monograph readers will find stunning reproductions of sixty paintings, including several iconic works, and fifty drawings-representing collections from around the world. Coupled with the latest research, they combine to offer a completely up-to-date appreciation of Friedrich's extraordinary talent and his unquestionable status as a pioneer of ...

Manhattan’s art scene in the 1980s is full of backstabbers, but Miss Melville regards this as needlessly messy. She prefers to use a gun—and she uses it well, in this darkly funny series perfect for fans of Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club. Life is full of surprises. Susan Melville, for example, was raised to marry well, but when the Melville millions went South, she turned to...let’s call it freelance problem-solving in order to pay the rent. Bluntly? She became a hired killer. Surprise! And now, surprisingly, her little watercolors have found an audience. Miss Melville can join the world of museums and artistes, and bid adieu to the grubby realm of hitmen and...hitwomen. Hitpeople? A shining, law-abiding life will be hers, she is certain—until another artist drops dead, the police get the story wrong, and Miss Melville is forced, yet again, to step in and tidy things up.

On board the whaling ship Pequod a crew of wise men and fools, renegades and seeming phantoms is hurled through treacherous seas by crazed Captain Ahab, a man hell-bent on hunting down the mythic White Whale. Melville transforms the little world of the whale ship into a crucible where mankind's fears, faith and frailties are pitted against a relentless fate. Teeming with ideas and imagery, and with its extraordinary intensity sustained by mischievous irony and moments of exquisite beauty, Moby-Dick is both a great American epic and a profoundly imaginative literary creation.

`Truth uncompromisingly told will always have its ragged edges.'' So wrote Melville of Billy Budd, Sailor, among the greatest of his works and, in its richness and ambiguity, among the most problematic. As the critic E. L. Grant Watson writes, `In this short history of the impressment and hanging of a handsome sailor-boy are to be discovered problems as profound as those which puzzle us in the pages of the Gospels.'' Outwardly a compelling narrative of events aboard a British man-of-war during the turmoil of the Napoleonic Wars, Billy Budd, Sailor is a nautical recasting of the Fall, a parable of good and evil, a meditation on justice and political governance, and a searching portrait of three extraordinary men. The passion it has aroused in its readers over the years is a measure of how deeply it addresses some of the fundamental questions of experience that every age must reexamine for itself. The selection in this volume represents the best of Melville''s shorter fiction, and uses the most authoritative texts. The eight shorter tales included here were composed during Melville''s years as a magazine writer in the mid 1850''s and establish him, along with Hawthorne and Poe, as the greatest ...

A revelatory look at how the mature work of Caspar David Friedrich engaged with concurrent developments in natural science and philosophy Best known for his atmospheric landscapes featuring contemplative figures silhouetted against night skies and morning mists, Caspar David Friedrich (1774–1840) came of age alongside a German Romantic philosophical movement that saw nature as an organic and interconnected whole. The naturalists in his circle believed that observations about the animal, vegetable, and mineral kingdoms could lead to conclusions about human life. Many of Friedrich’s often-overlooked later paintings reflect his engagement with these philosophical ideas through a focus on isolated shrubs, trees, and rocks. Others revisit earlier compositions or iconographic motifs but subtly metamorphose the previously distinct human figures into the natural landscape.  In this revelatory book, Nina Amstutz combines fresh visual analysis with broad interdisciplinary research to investigate the intersection of landscape painting, self-exploration, and the life sciences in Friedrich’s mature work. Drawing connections between the artist’s anthropomorphic landscape forms and contemporary discussions of biology, anatomy, morphology, death, and decomposition, Amstutz brings Friedrich’s work into the larger discourse surrounding art, nature, and life in the 19th century.

It centers on more than sixty paintings and about one hundred drawings.

American author Herman Melville published his first novel, Moby-Dick; or, The Whale, in 1851. The story of Ahab, the captain of the whaling ship Pequod, and his irrational pursuit for vengeance against Moby Dick, the huge white sperm whale that wounded him on a previous journey, is told in the book by the sailor Ishmael. Moby-Dick, a work that contributed to the literature of the American Renaissance, had received mixed reviews upon publication, was a commercial flop, and was out of print when the author passed away in 1891. It wasn't until the 20th century, on the centennial of its author's birth in 1919, that it gained recognition as a "Great American Novel." William Faulkner expressed regret for not having written the novel himself, while D. H. Lawrence praised it as "the best book of the sea ever written" and "one of the oddest and most wonderful books in the world." One of the most well-known starting lines in all of literature is "Call me Ishmael." Moby-Dick was started by Melville in February 1850, and it was finished a year later than he had intended, in 18 months. Melville drew on his observations as a common sailor between 1841 and ...

Arthur Melville was arguably the most innovative and modernist Scottish artist of his generation and one of the finest British watercolourists of the nineteenth century, yet he avoided categorisation. In 1943 the Scottish Colourist John Duncan Fergusson confessed that although they never met, "his work opened up to me the way to free painting - not merely freedom in the use of paint, but freedom of outlook". This book offers a comprehensive survey of Arthur Melville''s (1855-1904) rich and varied career as artist-adventurer, Orientalist, forerunner of The Glasgow Boys, painter of modern life and re-interpreter of the landscape of Scotland. His travels inspired spectacular watercolours and paintings.

When Melville completed Moby-Dick, he wrote to Nathaniel Hawthorne that “I have written a wicked book, and feel spotless as a lamb.” While it took the world some time to appreciate the magnitude of Melville’s achievement, Moby-Dick is now widely considered one of the greatest works of American literature. It is, however, long, and students in semester-long courses will often not have a chance to read the novel in its entirety. The Broadview Moby-Dick: A Selection offers a robust sampling of chapters, chosen to give students a thorough initiation into the novel’s plot, as well as into the full range of its themes and stylistic experimentation. This edition also includes substantial, clear, and helpful annotations to help students successfully navigate Melville’s language and range of references.This volume is one of a number of editions that have been drawn from the pages of the acclaimed Broadview Anthology of American Literature. The series is designed to make selections from the anthology available in a format convenient for use in a wide variety of contexts; each edition features an introduction and exaplanatory footnotes, and is designed to meet the needs of today’s students.

Typee: A Romance of the South Seas by Herman Melville explores themes of freedom, cultural conflict, and the clash between civilization and primitive societies. The novel centers around a sailor who, after fleeing a whaling ship, finds himself among the Typee people in the Marquesas Islands. Initially fascinated by their idyllic way of life, the protagonist soon begins to question the true nature of their customs.The book contrasts Western notions of civilization with the seemingly simple, but complex, lifestyle of the islanders. Through the protagonist's experiences, Melville examines how cultural misunderstandings can lead to tension and fear, even in what initially appears to be a paradise. The themes of captivity and escape also play a significant role, as the protagonist navigates his feelings of entrapment within the Typee community and his desire for freedom. Ultimately, Typee delves into the complexities of human nature and the challenges of understanding and accepting different cultures.

Herman Melville (1819-91) brought as much genius to the smaller-scale literary forms as he did to the full-blown novel: his poems and the short stories and novellas collected in this volume reveal a deftness and a delicacy of touch that is in some ways even more impressive than the massive, tectonic passions of Moby-Dick. In a story like “Bartleby, the Scrivener” — one of the very few perfect representatives of the form in the English language — he displayed an unflinching precision and insight and empathy in his depiction of the drastically alienated inner life of the title character. In “Benito Cereno,” he addressed the great racial dilemmas of the nineteenth century with a profound, almost surreal imaginative clarity. And in Billy, Budd, Sailor, the masterpiece of his last years, he fused the knowledge and craft gained from a lifetime’s magnificent work into a pure, stark, flawlessly composed tale of innocence betrayed and destroyed. Melville is justly honored for the epic sweep of his mind, but his lyricism, his skill in rendering the minute, the particular, the local, was equally sublime.SEE LESS

To, že strukturální změny v mozku, např. po zranění nebo při degenerativním onemocnění, ovlivňují naše chování, vědí vědci již poměrně dlouho. Ale jak naopak mozkovou strukturu ovlivňují zkušenosti s bolestí, strachem, depresí či dětskými traumaty? Jakým způsobem mají změny vztahů nebo proces psychoterapie či psychosomatické medicíny za následek neuronální restrukturalizaci? A jak může mozek a psychika ovlivnit zdraví našeho těla, zejména funkci srdce a krevního oběhu, funkci obranyschopnosti organismu proti infekcím a malignitám či funkci žláz s vnitřní sekrecí? Těmto a podobným otázkám složitých interakcí psychických a tělesných procesů se věnuje právě tato publikace. Vědecky fundovaná kniha, která v němčině vyšla již v pátém, aktualizovaném a rozšířeném vydání, začíná každé téma od skutečně základních poznatků, takže všechny neurofyziologické a biochemické pochody a jejich vztah k behaviorálním jevům a psychosomatickým poruchám je snadno pochopitelný a srozumitelný. Kniha je věnovaná aktuálním psychosomatickým oblastem: chronické bolesti, kardiovaskulárnímu systému, psychoendokrinologii a stresu, imunitnímu systému, vztahu neuronální plasticity a psychoterapie. Prof. Dr. med. Dr. phil. Johann Caspar Rüegg byl švýcarský lékař v oboru fyziologie a autor několika publikací o psychosomatice.

Herman Melville (1819-1891) Americký prozaik a básník, jeden z největších klasiků americké literatury. Narodil se v bohaté rodině, ale otcův obchodní úpadek a jeho smrt zanechaly jeho rodinu bez prostředků. Chlapec byl nucen doslova bojovat o přežití. Stále však toužil dál cestovat. Stal se členem posádky velrybářské lodi, ovšem pobouřen surovým zacházením uprchl v tropických Marquesách na ostrov Nuku Hiva, kde byl měsíc zajatcem lidojedského kmene v údolí Taipi. Podařilo se mu uprchnout na australské velrybářské lodi a přes Tahiti a Havajské ostrovy se vrátil s americkou válečnou fregatou do Bostonu.

Audiokniha: Řekne-li se Bílá velryba, většinu z nás napadne Moby Dick. Tak nazval Herman Melville onoho tvora, který je ztělesněním přírody a současně jakýmsi symbolem tajemství, které není dáno člověku odhalit. Obsáhlý román amerického spisovatele - mimochodem obsahuje celkem 135 kapitol - je starý více než 150 let a řadí se ke klenotům světové literatury.Právě pro svou obsáhlost a složitou kompoziční stavbu jako by se vzpíral rozhlasovému zpracování. Vždyť šedesátiminutová nahrávka představuje přibližně jen třicet stran scénáře. Jak na tak malém prostoru zachovat původní autorovo poselství?To byla otázka, se kterou se potýkali všichni tvůrci nové rozhlasové inscenace. Od počátku bylo jasné, že původní vyznění literární předlohy musí zůstat zachováno. Scénář pro to vytvořil dobrý základ, ale pořád to byl jenom základ. Je paradoxem, že jeho autor Petr Mandel, který složil scénickou hudbu k desítkám, možná i stovkám rozhlasových her a pohádek, byl jako hudebník v tomto případě skoupý. Jak on, tak režisér Vladimír Rusko měli totiž jasnou představu - žádná hudba, žádná stylizace! Právě pro vytvoření ojedinělé atmosféry byly při realizaci použity výhradně konkrétní zvuky natočené přímo pro tento účel v exteriéru nebo ve studiu a částečně byly využity také některé reálné zvukové kulisy z rozhlasového archivu.

"It is the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships' cables and hawsers. A Polar wind blows through it, and birds of prey hover over it."So Melville wrote of his masterpiece, one of the greatest works of imagination in literary history. In part, Moby-Dick is the story of an eerily compelling madman pursuing an unholy war against a creature as vast and dangerous and unknowable as the sea itself. But more than just a novel of adventure, more than an encyclopaedia of whaling lore and legend, the book can be seen as part of its author's lifelong meditation on America. Written with wonderfully redemptive humour, Moby-Dick is also a profound inquiry into character, faith, and the nature of perception.This edition of Moby-Dick, which reproduces the definitive text of the novel, includes invaluable explanatory notes, along with maps, illustrations, and a glossary of nautical terms.
