Edición de Luis Gómez Canseco.Vida, ascendencia, nacimiento, crianza y aventurasdel doctor don Diego de Torres Villarroel fue publicada por primera vez en 1743. Esta autobiografía novelada y novelesca se convirtio en un exito inmediato.La historia comienza con un protagonista que parece ir para picaro, pero que termina prefiriendo la vida acomodada de un rentista. De una pagina a otra lo vemos ejercer de estudiante, de truhan, ermitaño, bailarin, medico, torero, soldado, bordador, adivino, profesor, astrologo, hombre de Iglesia, polemista, peregrino, exiliado, delincuente, rastreador de duendes, charlatan, paseante refinado por la corte, actor, sabio o loco.A pesar de la buena fortuna de la Vida entre los editores modernos, la edicion de Luis Gomez Canseco para la BCRAE puede considerarse la primera plenamente atenta a todos los pormenores del texto, y nos devuelve una imagen del autor muy distinta a la del escritor negligente que el mismo quiso atribuirse. La anotacion y el estudio completan una rigurosa aproximacion a esta obra capital del pleno Setecientos.

La comedia famosa de Saber del mal y el bien fue escrita por Calderón entre los años 1624 y 1627 y representada en el palacio del Pardo a finales de 1627 o principios de 1628. Se trata de una "comedia de privanza", subgenero dramatico iniciado a principios del siglo XVII. Calderon dramatiza la historia del reinado de Alfonso VII Imperator totius Hispaniae y su relacion (alterada por el dramaturgo) con el noble don Pedro Gonzalez de Lara. Introduce en la accion al noble portugues don Alvaro de Viseo, evidente anacronismo historico, pero que situa esta comedia entre las de "materia portuguesa". El tema fundamental es el del concepto de privanza y la polemica suscitada en Europa ante la aparicion de este personaje. En Saber del mal y el bien se abordan los temas fundamentales de esta controversia: necesidad del valido, su papel en el gobierno de la monarquia, origen del poder real e inestabilidad del cargo. La edicion se basa en el texto de Primera parte de comedias, publicado en Madrid en 1636.

Jean-Michel dAron, son of Alain dAron, owner of the noble inn "Zum Weien Falken" in Paris, was born in 1769. As a student, he was forced to flee during the night of the fire in Paris in 1793. He stayed in La Rochelle and Marseille before making his way to the Occitan Alps to visit an inn that was up for sale. On the way, he meets Don Luciano Varini, the leader of a criminal empire that controls the smuggling of goods in the Occitan Alps, as well as racketeering and prostitution.The encounter with Don Luciano Varini becomes a threat to Jean-Michel dAron and his family.

Welcome back to the mountains of Occitania! The next generation is already arriving. At the same time, however, the status quo seems more endangered than ever. The secret committee of the empire decides to liquidate Luciano. Has his time run out? Will he soon be nothing but history? He has to defend himself against an assassination attempt. Will he succeed in reorganizing his empire or will it be destroyed? And will Luciano finally manage to let go of Viktor, his dead lover from his youth?

In chaos theory, the butterfly effect refers to the sensitive dependence on initial conditions, where minimal changes in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can lead to large differences in a later stage. Beyond the climate sciences, the concept of the domino effect is similarly used as a broader term for any situation in which a relatively minor change is expected to cause significant black swan events. In this context, the simple flap of a butterflys wings can trigger tornados in far distant regions. But it was not long before the beginning of this millennium that almost simultaneously and everywhere such butterflies began to swarm. Under these circumstances, the Doomsday Clock appears to have lost its pendulum as its hands spin faster and faster. Any serious problem like this requires a devils advocate to hold up the worst-case scenario to the public, so they simply cannot look away. As a former chief executive officer, the author is well aware of the importance of psycho-sociologically driven collective behaviorsno matter the state of affairs. Thats why the novelist focused on the underlying group dynamics with regard to an imminent ecological apocalypse when he plotted the storyline on hand.His protagonist, a man, badly scarred by the suicide of his wife, who wanted to take him with her to the death, fulfils the most ardent wish of his youth and goes on a circumnavigation of the globe on the yacht La Viewhich he reconstructed from a mere wreck. Nevertheless, even in the remotest corners of the earth, he cannot escape himself. On his journey, he meets strong women who lead him back to life. Together they develop an ingenious gambit to save our planet Earth from an environmental doomsday after alland provocatively hold up a mirror to society. A passionate novel about perseverance and an escape from ones own failures along winding paths, authentically told by an author who draws on a wealth of life experience. A story that illustrates that every failure carries the immanent obligation to change.

Ludvig Holberg (16841754) is to the Danish stage what Shakespeare, Moliere and Strindberg are to their national stages and the world. In his day, Holberg was part of the European literary canon; in the Nordic region, his work forms the backdrop to writers such as Sren Kierkegaard, Hans Christian Andersen, Henrik Ibsen and Karen Blixen.The quality of Holbergs writing, the universality of his themes, his understanding of stage and auditorium, more than qualify him to resume his place on the international stage.This first volume in a trilogy of new translations starts by presenting Holbergs poetics of dramaturgy in the short treatise Just Justesens Ref lections on Theatre, followed by two of his robust comedies dealing with power, illusion and dreams of greatness.Jeppe of The Hill depicts the lowly peasant who is momentarily elevated to a position of splendour. Clad in the trappings of his new and powerful status, he is soon well on the way to upending the established social order. But, alas, it was all a stage-managed trick, exposing the fundamental dilemma of (his) existence: "Am I dreaming, or am I awake?"Ulysses von Ithacia is essentially a surreal harlequinade about self-delusion, craving for empire and the heroic roles played in corridors of power.A metatheatrical play exposing the absurdity of war and stripping this pompous ruler of his new clothes."I never tire of reading Holbergs plays."Henrik Ibsen, 1869

Hundreds of thousands have already thrilled to this extraordinary retelling of a life unmatched in human history. Through the story of the Singer, his Song and his battles with the World Hater, Calvin Miller has created a work full of life. Now you can find the complete, powerful tale of incarnation and redemption in one volume, with all three of Calvin Millers books together: The Singer, The Song and The Finale.The Singer quickly became a favorite of evangelists, pastors, artists, students, teachers and readers of all sorts when it was originally published in 1975. Recounting the story of Christ through an allegorical and poetic narrative of a Singer whose Song could not be silenced, Millers work reinvigorated Christian literature and offers believers and seekers everywhere a deeply personal encounter with the gospel.This magnificent reimagining of the story of Christ and his church gives young and old alike the opportunitiy to be immersed in the good news.

From 17 April, 1900, to 6 June of that year, Pierre Loti travelled in a private capacity from Bushire on the Persian Gulf, northwards through Shiraz, Persepolis, Isfahan and Tehran, before returning via the Caspian Sea to Europe. This is the personal day-by-day account of his journey, the hardships of the mountainous terrain and the empty desert. Loti excels in his descriptions of the world around him: the sky, the mountains, the fertile plains, the deserted desert. His descriptions of the people he meets, their dress and manners are remarkable. Loti had come from India and on his way to the Gulf, he stopped off at Muscat and his account of this brief visit was published as En passant a Mascate (Passing through Muscat). This is the first English translation of both texts.
