Breeches and Metaphysics: Thackeray's German Discourse
by S. S. Prawer"This study traces the successive stages of Thackeray's contact with the German world and analyses the discourse he developed as a result. The author is concerned with the fiction and criticism of Thackeray's :Paris Sketch Book"" and the impressions related by the cockney traveller in ""Irish Sketch Book"" and ""Notes of a Journey from Cornhill to Grand Cairo"". Thackeray's own pictorial illustrations of his writings and those by Cruikshank, Doyle and Walker, which he supervised and supplemented, are recognized as an integral part of his German discourse. The study is a chronological one, setting Thackeray's construction of ""German"" and ""the Germans"" against the background of his own development and of the social, industrial, cultural and political history of Britain and its continental neighbours."

Breezeway: New Poems
by John AshberyA bold, striking new collection of poems from one of America’s most influential and inventive poets.With more than twenty poetry collections to his name, John Ashbery is one of our most agile, philosophically complex, and visionary poets. In Breezeway, Ashbery’s powers of observation are at their most astute; his insight at its most penetrating. Demonstrating his extraordinary command of language and his ability to move fluidly and elegantly between wide-ranging thoughts and ideas—from the irreverent and slyly humorous to the tender, the sad, and the heartbreaking—Ashbery shows that he is a virtuoso fluent in diverse styles and tones of language, from the chatty and whimsical to the lyrical and urbane. Filled with allusions to literature and art, as well as to the absurdities and delights of the everyday world around us, Ashbery’s poems are haunting, surprising, hilarious, and knowing all at once, the work of a master craftsman with a keen understanding of the age in which he lives and writes, an age whose fears and fragmentation he conjures and critiques with humor, pathos, and a provocative wit.Vital and imaginative, Ashbery’s poems not only touch on the “big questions” and crises of life in the twenty-first century, but also delicately capture the small moments between and among people. Imaginative, linguistically dazzling, and artistically ambitious, Breezeway is John Ashbery’s sharpest and most arresting collection yet.

Brenda
by Eduardo Acevedo DíazEscritor, político y periodista uruguayo, de sus relatos nativistas se destaca Brenda, novela hispanoamericana del siglo XIX. ?En una casa situada en las afueras de Montevideo, a altas horas de una noche de verano que lucía algunas estrellas, y cuyo aire tibio formaba nebulosas con los vapores flotantes de la niebla alrededor de los reverberos, cruzaban por el patio varias sombras calladas e inquietas, personas que andaban sobre la punta de los pies comprimiendo sus alientos y evitando el más leve rumor. Algo grave ocurría.?
Brenda Is in the Room & Other Poems
