Award-winning author Michael Walsh looks at twelve momentous battles that changed the course of Western history. A sequel to Michael Walsh’s Last Stands, his new book A Rage to Conquer is a journey through the twelve of the most important battles in Western history. As Walsh sees it, war is an important facet of every culture – and, for better or worse, our world is unthinkable without it. War has been an essential part of the human condition throughout history, the principal agent of societal change, waged by men on behalf of, and in pursuit of, their gods, women, riches, power, and the sheer joy of combat.In A Rage to Conquer, Walsh brings history to life as he considers a group of courageous commanders and the battles they waged that became crucial to the course of Western history. He looks first at Carl Von Clausewitz, the seminal thinker in the Western canon dealing with war. He then moves on to Achilles at Ilium, Alexander at Gaugamela, Caesar at Alesia, Constantine at the Milvian Bridge, Aetius at the Catalaunian Plains, Bohemond at Dorylaeum and Antioch, Napoleon at Austerlitz, Pershing at St.-Mihiel, Nimitz at Midway and Patton at the Bulge with a final consideration of how the Battle of 9/11 was ultimately lost by the U.S. and what that portends for the future.

Discover the story of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with this exquisite edition from Union Square & Co.’s Signature Gilded Editions series! The stunning Frankenstein special edition features sprayed edges, color end pages, a built-in ribbon bookmark, and embossed foil cover. The beautiful design and attention to detail set this special edition book apart, whether you’re reading for the first time or building a library of your favorite classic literature books. Dr. Victor Frankenstein never considers the consequences of his obsession. In his zeal to understand and harness the secret of life, he neglects his family and friends, isolates himself from the world, and ignores his own health. For years, he labors to create a new race of intelligent beings. He spends his nights scrounging human and animal body parts from graveyards, slaughterhouses, and hospital dissection rooms. By day he experiments in his secret laboratory, learning from his mistakes and perfecting the creature who, he believes, will worship him as a god. But this hubris is not his only sin. When he succeeds, Frankenstein is horrified by the ugly brutishness of the patchwork being he has brought to life. Rather than exult in his accomplishment, he runs from it, retreating to the comfort of long-neglected friends and family. Frankenstein has, indeed, created a monster. Not by reanimating dead flesh, but by abandoning his creation and planting within it the seeds of rage and loneliness. Now, the monster is out for revenge. First published in 1818, Frankenstein (also known as The Modern Prometheus) by Mary Shelley stands as a monumental work in the canon of Gothic literature and is widely regarded as one of the first science fiction novels. Conceived during a story contest among friends on a stormy night, Shelley's novel tells the tale of Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist who creates a sentient creature in an unorthodox scientific experiment. The novel delves into themes of creation and responsibility, examining the consequences of man's ambition and the ethical limits of scientific exploration. Shelley's work is a profound commentary on the potential perils of playing God and the moral obligations creators have to their creations. Today, Frankenstein remains incredibly relevant, echoing in modern debates on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, and bioethics. Its exploration of human identity, monstrousness, and isolation also speaks to contemporary issues of social justice and acceptance, making Frankenstein a timeless reflection on the human condition.

From the worldwide bestselling author of The Hating Game comes a sweet and spicy rom-com that imagines Victor Frankenstein's sheltered younger sister, and her attempts to create the perfect man . . . For generations, every Frankenstein has found their true love and equal, unlocking lifetimes of blissful wedded adventure. Clever, pretty (and odd) Angelika Frankenstein has run out of suitors and fears she may become the exception to this family rule. When assisting in her brother Victor's ground-breaking experiment to bring a reassembled man back to life, she realizes that having an agreeable gentleman convalescing in the guest suite might be a chance to let a man get to know the real her. For the first time, Angelika embarks upon a project that is all her own. When her handsome scientific miracle sits up on the lab table, her hopes for an instant romantic connection are thrown into disarray. Her resurrected beau (named Will for the moment) has total amnesia and is solely focused on uncovering his true identity. Trying to ignore their heart-pounding chemistry, Angelika reluctantly joins the investigation into his past, hoping it will bring them closer. But when a second suitor emerges to aid their quest, Angelika wonders if she was too hasty inventing a solution. Perhaps fate is not something that can be influenced in a laboratory? Or is Will (or whatever his name is!) her dream man, tailored for her in every way? And can he survive what was done to him in the name of science, and love? Filled with carriages, candlesticks, and corpses, Angelika Frankenstein Makes Her Match is the spooky-season romcom that reminds us to never judge a man by his cadaver!

By the dim and yellow light of the moon, as it forced its way through the window-shutters, I beheld the wretch-the miserable monster whom I had created. He held up the curtain of the bed; and his eyes, if eyes they may be called, were fixed on me. His jaws opened...Frankenstein is the most celebrated horror story ever written. It tells the dreadful tale of Victor Frankenstein, a visionary young student of natural philosophy, who discovers the secret of life. In the grip of his obsession he constructs a being from dead body parts, and animates this creature. The results, for Victor and for his family, are catastrophic.Written when Mary Shelley was just eighteen, Frankenstein was inspired by the ghost stories and vogue for Gothic literature that fascinated the Romantic writers of her time. She transformed these supernatural elements an epic parable that warned against the threats to humanity posed by accelerating technological progress. Published for the 200th anniversary, this edition, based on the original 1818 text, explains in detail the turbulent intellectual context in which Shelley was writing, and also investigates how her novel has since become a byword for controversial practices in science and medicine, from manipulating ecosystems to vivisection and genetic modification. As an iconic study of power, creativity, and, ultimately, what it is to be human, Frankenstein continues to shape our thinking in profound ways to this day.

A twisted, upside-down creation myth that gave birth to the modern science fiction novel Frankenstein, Mary Shelley's chilling Gothic tale, lays bare the dark side of science, and the horror within us all. Written after a nightmare Mary Shelley was only eighteen, this book gave birth to the modern science fiction novel. Set against the backdrop of Europe in the late 18th century, Frankenstein explores themes of scientific ethics, the nature of monstrosity, and the consequences of playing god.The book follows the ambitious scientist Victor Frankenstein who plunders graveyards to create a human-like creature from reanimated body parts, driven by his desire to overcome death and unlock the secrets of life. Frankenstein is often considered a reflection of the cultural and scientific anxieties of the time, with the Industrial Revolution and advancements in science raising questions about the ethical boundaries of scientific exploration. Despite first being published in 1818, this novel remains relevant today, prompting discussions on the consequences of unchecked ambition and societal rejection of the “other.” This seminal work is perfect for fans of the Gothic and science fiction genres.

This is the question Walsh's narrator must reckon with as she travels across Europe after the end of a love affair conducted largely online. This pilgrimage through 'offline' space dictated by chance - on railways, on buses, on planes and, above all, on foot - wrestles with the dangers of converting longing into language, and reclaims and reshapes the territory of the male travel writer by creating personal and innovative maps of cities by which Walsh navigates the complexities of modern love.This is a work about borders - between places, people, genres - and how we might cross them. Challenging the divisions between intellect and intimacy, Walsh blends the personal and the critical to tell a mystery story about her own reality. But Break.up also challenges the borders between fiction and non-fiction, ranging widely into eclectic essays on music, boredom, shame, photography, marriage, art. From Rome to Budapest, Freud to Foucault, algorithms to nostalgia, this is a stimulating, original work which dismantles what we know of love, and how we make art from it, and finds a new form and language for the way we love now.

Frankenstein obsahuje singly z tvorby skupiny XIII. století, které nevyšly na řadových albech. Většina z nich zde vychází v nových verzích. Především je však doplňují dvě nové písně (Frankenstein, Chaotika). Titulní skladba je poklonou gotickému žánru a zároveň odkazem k dílu Mary Shelleyové a jejímu slavnému románu. Všechny skladby napsal a album produkoval filosof temnoty Petr Štěpán, vůdčí osobnost skupiny. Skupina XIII. století vznikla v roce 1991. Hraje kytarový gothic rock vycházející z původního odkazu gotické vlny a punku. Ve svém žánru patří k naší absolutní špičce s přesahem do zahraničí.

Mary Shelleyová - Frankenstein. Světoznámý horor vypráví příběh mladého vědce Viktora Frankensteina, který stvoří umělého člověka, ohavné monstrum s nadlidskou silou? Stovky adaptací divadelních, filmových i rozhlasových, komiksy, a dokonce i počítačové hry. Přestože vznikl ve století páry, román Frankenstein opanoval zábavní průmysl i v jeho virtuální éře a stal se trvale inspirujícím dílem populární kultury. Trvalo mu to bezmála dvě století, během nichž vydělal miliardy, paradoxem je, že ne svojí autorce. Mary Wollstonecra Shelleyová u prvního vydání ani nezveřejnila své autorství, takže Frankenstein vyšel v roce 1818 anonymně a v nákladu pouhých pěti set výtisků. Předmluvu napsal již tehdy známý a skandály opředený básník Percy Bysshe Shelley, Maryin manžel, což podnítilo spekulace o jeho utajeném autorství. Dnes víme, že na románu měl jistý podíl, jako řekneme ?rodinný editor?, a právě on povzbudil svou novomanželku, aby původní náčrt povídky rozšířila na román. Ostatně byl i u toho, kdy se Mary nadchla myšlenkou napsat nějaký hrůzostrašný příběh.

Vydala ji v roce 1818 anglická spisovatelka Mary Wollstonecraft Shelleyová a vypráví příběh mladého vědce Victora Frankensteina, který ve vědeckém experimentu, který tlačí hranice, vytvoří živého humanoidního tvora. Osudná byla v roce 1816 cesta po Německu a Švýcarsku s Shelleyho nevlastní sestrou Claire Clairmontovou, budoucím manželem Percy Bysshe Shelleym a lordem Byronem, která vedla k vytvoření Frankensteina a jeho tragického stvoření. Jak příběh pokračuje, skupina cestovala podél řeky Rýn a zastavila se poblíž hradu Frankenstein, kde se alchymista údajně zabýval záhadnými experimenty před dvěma stoletími. Velká část konverzace během jejich cest se týkala témat, jako je galvanismus (související s elektrickými proudy) a okultismus, a tyto vlivy byly na mysli Mary Shelley, když dorazili do Ženevy. Když Byron navrhl soutěž o to, kdo by mohl napsat nejlepší duchařský příběh, Shelley vycházela z těchto zkušeností, stejně jako ze svých vlastních pocitů smutku a viny nad ztrátou dítěte, aby vytvořila svůj příběh. Shelley dokončila psaní na jaře 1817 a příběh byl poprvé publikován v Londýně 1. ledna 1818. Ačkoli první vydání vyšlo anonymně, obsahovalo předmluvu napsanou jejím manželem a věnování jejímu otci. Shelleyho jméno bylo přidáno do druhého vydání, vydaného v roce 1823, a od té doby je neodmyslitelně spjato s žánrem gotického hororu. Příběh se zabývá univerzálními otázkami jako „Jaký je můj účel“ a „Proč jsem tady“ – otázky, které stále rezonují u čtenářů. V roce 2019 BBC News uvedlo Frankensteina jako jeden ze svých 100 nejvlivnějších románů a v roce 2021 byl vybrán jako jeden ze šesti klasických britských sci-fi románů, které mají být uvedeny na sérii britských poštovních známek. Dnes se ručně psaný návrh Frankensteina Mary Shelley koná v Bodleian Libraries na Oxfordské univerzitě.

A generation later, this magnificent pairing of art and literature is still considered to be one of the greatest achievements made by any artist in the field. This book includes the complete text of the original groundbreaking novel and approximately fifty original full-page illustrations by Bernie Wrightson—created over a period of seven years—that continue to stun the world with their monumental beauty and uniqueness.
