The art of being a good husband is not an easy one. This little guide was written for the middle classes of the 1930s who were reading one of the first modern self-help books. Illustrated with contemporary line-drawings, it contains advice by turns delightfully arcane and timelessly true, for example: don't squeeze the tube of toothpaste from the top instead of from the bottom — this is one of the small things of life that always irritates a careful wife; don't think that your wife has placed waste-paper baskets in the rooms as ornaments; don't tell your wife terminological inexactitudes, which are, in plain English, lies — a woman has wonderful intuition for spotting even minor departures from the truth; do cultivate the habit of coming down to breakfast with a smile — remember that as the head of the house, it is your duty to see that everyone starts the day in an atmosphere of happiness; and, don't criticise the food at your own table when you are entertaining and especially refrain from doing so before the servants.

«El nombre de Juan Ramon Jimenez esta indisolublemente ligado al titulo de «Platero y yo», una de las obras mas conocidas у universales de las letras hispanicas. Y a pesar de ello cabe afirmar que «Platero y yo» fue victima de su exito popular. El propio autor protestaba contra tanta lectura superficial aferrada al sentimentalismo facil de la anecdota. Richard Cardwell, uno de los primeros especialistas en el gran andaluz universal, explica en la Introduction cual fue la intention basica de Juan Ramon Jimenez у el objetivo que perseguia: la propagation de los grandes ideales de la pedagogia cultural del krausismo. La prosecution de esta guia, sin disminuir el encanto, amplfa el interes de la lectura. Porque a la vez que se senalan todos los recursos del arte literario, se nos descubren las verdaderas raices de la universalidad de un libro tan conmovedor y, en apariencia, tan sencillo.»

Esta obra de Miguel de Unamuno es uno de los ejemplos cl?sicos m?s eminentes de la novela moderna. La ficci?n deja aqu? de ser un puro veh?culo narrativo, transmisor de historias, para convertirse en un universo textual de fecundas sugerencias. El titulo, Niebla, expresa con claridad el prop?sito novelesco de desdibujar lo visible y materializar, en cambio, lo impalpable. En este ambiente vemos moverse a un hombre esencialmente frustrado, Augusto P?rez, sobre cuya muerte nos veremos obligados a pronunciarnos.

Paint your own lowrider just the way you like it! Impalas, Cadillacs and Rivieras. In the Lowrider Coloring Book, you will color the classic and most popular Lowrider models. Lowrider culture reaches back to 1930s Los Angeles, where it became popular for style-conscious Latino-Americans to load their cars with sandbags to bring it closer to the road. Style was everything, and when lowered cars were banned in California in the 1950s, it became necessary to find a way to raise and lower the car simply to avoid fines. The solution was to use hydraulics from old fighter planes left over from World War II. The rapper Kid Frost showcased lowriding in the early 90s hit Lowrider, and since then, the cars are closely associated with hip hop culture. Today, lowriding is bigger than ever with thousands of enthusiasts in most parts of the world. All strive to outdo each other with the most elegant varnish, interior, hydraulics, chrome and rims. The custom cars you'll be coloring in the Lowrider Coloring book were converted by some of the best and most legendary enthusiasts. What color is your Impala?

Writers United: The Story About WFUC — a Swedish Graffiti Crew

PDF, 141 страниц, 4.23 МБ

The book Writers United paints an intimate portrait of the members of one of the world's most notorious graffiti crews, Writers United Football Club (WUFC). Six members, with entirely different personalities and one common goal. Since the creation of WUFC in an indoor soccer hall in the Stockholm suburb of Nacka eleven years ago, they have written their name on thousands of trains and walls across Europe. Like rock musicians, graffiti writers invest their work with style and attitude, and just like in any successful band, each member of WUFC has a specific role. Here, hyperactive graffiti writers Uzi and Que take the lead. Journalist Bjrn Almqvist and photographer Emil Hagelin have been following WUFC and some of their friends for several years. The reader will encounter a new world through exhaustive interviews and direct reports. We follow the writers from making preparations in their homes to descending into dark tunnels to write. They risk injury and fines all year round to see their name on the trains. Their lifestyle can be hard to understand. Why do they write, how do they see their work, and what sort of people are they really? The text and atmospheric, highly-charged photographs in Writers United offer a better idea of what graffiti is really all about. As photographer Emil Hagelin says: Most graffiti books concentrate on the pieces themselves. We wanted to show what their lives look like, and how graffiti appears on Joe Blow's wall or the subway train he takes to work every morning.

Ghost: Rocking in Style

PDF, 128 страниц, 3.84 МБ

GHOST was one of the last kings of the New York City train writing era. He experimented with traditional letter styles until developing his own loose, funky and psychedelic letters that sprouted from his twisted drug seeped brain and his passion for bombing. When most writers see a train yard as an opportunity to paint a nice colorful piece, Ghost sees the yard as a place to bomb, to do hundreds of throw ups. He approaches his paintings with the same zest and casual grace as he does his throw-ups, with bold dripping explosions of vibrant colors and freaky cartoons. With frequent trips to Europe his style has inspired the new wave of Scandinavian-loose-bombing-style pieces. Today, he exhibits his artwork in galleries worldwide and does collaborations with urban culture brands. Despite this Ghost remains an enigma, he isnt social, and he does not want to be your friend. But his artwork like his bombing is something fantastic that deserves attention, for this he is overdue.

Budapest, awakened in 1989 after its long slumber behind the Iron Curtain, is now one of Europe's hottest destinations. It stands proudly at the center of Eastern Europe's cultural rebirth, and best of all, it still ranks as one of the continent's best bargains. Frommer's Budapest & the Best of Hungary is meticulously updated and revamped every 2 years (more frequently than the competition). Our author, a longtime resident of Budapest, is a professor of Education and co-owner of a B&B on the Pest side of the city — and he loves nothing more than to chat up his guests and give them recommendations for their trip. In this guide, he collects all of his insider tips and points you to the attractions, hotels, and restaurants to suit your tastes and budget, as if you were one of his guests. You can explore the city's highlights on detailed walking tours and learn about the gorgeous architecture of both the city's famous buildings and hidden treasures. And of course, we've got all the details on Budapest's exciting nightlife (and hidden parties), its vibrant arts scene, and its fabulous thermal baths and spas. Frommer's Budapest & the Best of Hungary also covers the Danube Bend, the Lake Balaton Region, Tokaji and the caves of Northeastern Hungary, and Pecs and the Mecsek Hills of Southern Hungary.

Urban street art is an art form that reflects society at the time the art work was created. It can be a remark on something in the media, current events, or it can be the artist's own personal comment. I street art, the motive, of course is important, but also the message — often a reaction or a counter-reaction to current affairs, that the artist wants to communicate to the public. And street art is easily apprehended because of its simple visualization. In the aftermath of July 22nd 2011, street art artists reacted in their own way to the horrendous acts carried out that day. In Oslo there were many different Oslo paintings and messages of support, and all around Norway artists put up stencils in memory of those who were taken away. It was also a way for the artists themselves to mourn. These last few years, the Norwegian street art scene has gone from an anonymous existence to gaining international recognition. With the release of Street Art Norway V.2 we want to communicate this development to a wider audience.

La publicación de La paloma de plata, y Petersburgo, la novela más conocida de su autor, no fueron hechos aislados. Ambas pertenecen a una idea mayor de conjunto, un tríptico inmenso sobre Rusia y su dualidad occidental-oriental, que concluye con la presente novela. Además, ocupa un lugar fundamental en la obra de Bieli como bisagra que une sus dos proyectos prosísticos más importantes, el presente tríptico y su ciclo de memorias.

Historias de Belkin

Автор: Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin Издательство: Nevsky Prospects, 2009 |
DjVu, 152 страницы, 6.08 МБ

Al final de su carrera, Pushkin realizó la transición entre poesía y prosa, y demostró tanta genialidad en este género como en el que se dio a conocer. Dicha prosa, de forma especial Historias de Belkin, contiene muchas de las virtudes de su poesía: claridad, coherencia e ingenio. Estos cuentos, destinados a familiarizar a la audiencia lectora de San Petersburgo con las clases bajas, contribuyeron a la identificación de Pushkin como escritor nacional de Rusia, un hombre con un abanico de simpatías tan extenso como tipos de gente existían en la sociedad que habitaba. Ingeniosos, divertidos y llenos de sensibilidad, son considerados una pieza imprescindible para entender la gran literatura rusa que surgiría tras Pushkin. Como apunta el ameno prólogo que acompaña a esta nueva colección, la publicación del ciclo marcó la transición entre un estilo literario más afrancesado y la incorporación e incluso creación de un lenguaje literario propiamente ruso. En los relatos abundan los duelos, las identidades confusas, los amores malogrados, los juegos de azar? Profundamente adelantados a su tiempo, al carecer de modelos preexistentes, Pushkin se sirve de la literatura popular de la época para realizar una parodia tanto de los géneros en boga como de su propia sociedad. El resultado es inteligente en extremo, divertido y profundamente original. Las historias de Belkin son un clásico imprescindible de la literatura eslava, aunque la inmensa reputación de Pushkin como poeta los haya eclipsado en cierta medida. Las Historias de Belkin se encuentran entre los ciclos de relatos rusos más divertidos e ingeniosos, y anuncian muchos de los caminos hacia los que evolucionaría la literatura del siglo veinte.
