Александр фон Гумбольдт (1769-1859) был бесстрашным исследователем и самым известным ученым своего времени. Его жизнь была полна приключений и открытий, будь то восхождение на вулканы в Андах, плавание с крокодилами, гонки по зараженной сибирской язвой Сибири или публикация новаторских бестселлеров. Опередив свое время, он осознал природу как взаимозависимое целое и раньше других увидел, что человечество находится на пути к ее уничтожению • "Избранные труды" - это не только дань уважения важной роли Гумбольдта в истории окружающей среды и науке, но и его способности создавать мощные поэтические повествования на основе научных наблюдений • Книга на английском языке • Humboldt (1769–1859) was an intrepid explorer and the most famous scientist of his age подробнее

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749-1832) is one of the towering figures of world culture, a universal man whose extraordinary talents found expression in literature, drama, autobiography, politics and the sciences. Edited and introduced by Nicholas Boyle, author of the definitive biography of Goethe, the Everyman's Library edition shows that Goethe remains one of the most intriguing and readable of European writers. Goethe established an international literary reputation overnight with The Sorrows of Young Werther (1774), a story of disappointed love and pathological sensibility which mounted a powerful challenge to the rationalism of the Enlightenment

During his most productive decade, the 1880s, Maupassant wrote more than 300 stories, including ‘Boule de Suif’, ‘The Necklace’, ‘The House of Madame Tellier’, ‘The Hand’, ‘The Horla’ and ‘Mademoiselle Fifi’. Marked by the psychological realism that he famously pioneered, the tales in this selection lead us on a tour of the human experience—lust and love, revenge and ridicule, terror and madness. Many take place in the author’s native Normandy, but the settings range farther abroad as well, from Brittany and Paris to Corsica and the Mediterranean coast, and even to North Africa and India. Maupassant’s remarkable range and ability to evoke an entire world in a few pages have ensured that his fiction has retained its power to entertain through generations of readers

Ослепительные рассказы Саки с хорошо продуманными сюжетами и неожиданными концовками, радостно разоблачают напыщенное лицемерие высшего класса эдвардианского общества. Но они выходят за рамки простой сатиры, доводя черный юмор до крайностей развлекательной эпатажности. Элегантно озорные юные герои Саки, не задумываясь, сеют хаос на своем пути. Иногда им помогают оборотни, тигры, подслушивающие домашние питомцы и дети-убийцы. В эту подборку из более чем пятидесяти рассказов входят такие любимые, как "Тобермори", "Открытое окно", "Средний ваштар", "Тигр миссис Паклетайд", "Метод Шарца-Меттерклюма" и многие другие • Книга на английском языке • Saki's dazzling tales manage the remarkable feat of being anarchic and urbane at the same time. Studded with Wildean epigrams and featuring well-contrived plots and surprise endings, his stories gleefully skewer the pompous hypocrisies of upper-class Edwardian society

Before publishing the sensuous and scandalous poems of Les Fleurs du Mal, Charles Baudelaire (1821-67) had already earned respect as a forthright and witty critic of art and literature. This stimulating selection of criticism reveals him as a worshipper at the altar of beauty, illuminating his belief that the pursuit of this ideal must be paramount in artistic expression. Reviews of exhibitions discuss works by great painters such as Delacroix and Ingres in fascinating detail, and 'Of Virtuous Plays and Novels' sees Baudelaire as an avenging angel in defence of true art. Writings on Poe, Flaubert and Gautier evoke a profound understanding of fellow artists, while his single excursion into musical criticism, 'Richard Wagner and Tannhauser in Paris', displays an incisive awareness of the magical power of suggestion in music

Wonderfully sardonic and slyly humorous, the writings of landmark American feminist and socialist thinker Charlotte Perkins Gilman were penned in response to her frustrations with the gender-based double standard that prevailed in America as the twentieth century began. Perhaps best known for her chilling depiction of a woman's mental breakdown in her unforgettable 1892 short story 'The Yellow Wall-Paper', Gilman also wrote Herland, a wry novel that imagines a peaceful, progressive country from which men have been absent for 2,000 years. Both are included in this volume, along with a selection of Gilman's major short stories and her poems

From one of the most unusual and distinctive writers working today, dubbed ‘the most daring and delightful novelist of his generation’ by the Guardian, Will Self’s Why Read is a cornucopia of thoughtful and brilliantly witty essays on writing and literature • Self takes us with him: from the foibles of his typewriter repairman to the irradiated exclusion zone of Chernobyl, to the Australian outback and to literary forms past and future. With his characteristic intellectual brio, Self aims his inimitable eye at titans of literature like Woolf, Kafka, Orwell and Conrad. He writes movingly on W.G. Sebald’s childhood in Germany and provocatively describes the elevation of William S. Burroughs’s Junky from shocking pulp novel to beloved cult classic
