The Stalingrad Cauldron: Inside the Encirclement and Destruction of the 6th Army
ISBN: 9780700619016 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 542 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The encirclement of the German 6th Army at Stalingrad in mid-November 1942 and its final collapse in February 1943 was a signature defeat for Hitler, as more than 100,000 of his soldiers were marched off into captivity. Frank Ellis tackles this oft-told tale from the unique perspective of the German officers and men trapped inside the Red Army's ever-closing ring of forces. This approach makes palpable the growing desperation of an army that began its campaign confident of victory but that long before the end could see how hopeless their situation had become. Highlighting these pages are...

This book not only records the significant events of Canadian aviation but also pays tribute to the 'forgotten flyers who flew by guess and by God or with calculating caution - for the sheer love of flying - in the early days.' The opening chapter recounts the first tentative experiments with that overgrown monster, the flying machine - at this stage, the glider. Next come the Barnstormers, the first professional airmen, trying desperately to wrest a living from the air, pioneering in the field of practical flying as little more than vaudeville performers. These were the days of... This book not only records the significant events of Canadian aviation but also pays tribute to the 'forgotten flyers who flew by guess and by God ... |

From Glasnost to the Internet: Russia's New Infosphere
ISBN: 9780333670958 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 259 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The Soviet collapse of 1991 - the Great August liberation - demonstrated the total exhaustion of Marxist-Leninist agitation and propaganda. It was no longer possible to live on slogans. The failure of Soviet agitprop is also the failure of Soviet censorship the latter being a unique institution in anti-thought. In From Glasnost to the Internet Ellis analyses the consequences of censorship, before tackling the media legislation of the Russian Federation and the new dangers to the free flow of information emerging both within and outside the Russian Federation.

The Damned and the Dead: The Eastern Front Through the Eyes of the Soviet and Russian Novelists
ISBN: 9780700617845 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The confrontation between the Wehrmacht and the Red Army on the Eastern Front of World War II was defined by incalculable suffering, destruction, casualties, and heroism. While many historians have chronicled the epic nature of that arena of war, it has largely been left to Russian novelists to fully express the intense human dimensions of that conflict. Frank Ellis's groundbreaking study provides the first comprehensive survey of that impressive body of literature. Canvassing a wide spectrum of works by Soviet and post-Soviet writers, many of whom were war veterans themselves, Ellis...

Swift vs. Mainwaring: The Examiner and the Medley
ISBN: 9780198125228 / Angielski / Twarda / 1985 / 584 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this edition the text of The Examiner is presented as Swift wrote it, not as it was revised for publication by George Faulkner in 1738. And for the first time Swift's Examiners are juxtaposed with the Medleys of Arthur Mainwaring that replied to them every week. They bring the reader close to the actualites of London between November 1710 and June 1711. From the literary point of view The Examiner is important because it contains some of Swift's best work. Even under the pressure of weekly publication he was still able to achieve, in Herbert Davis's words, 'an aloofness as if beyond bias...

Selected Works
ISBN: 9780140424591 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While living a life of reckless debauchery and sexual adventuring, Rochester produced comic verse, scurrilous satires, and highly explicit erotica. His Selected Works, edited by Frank H. Ellis and now available from Penguin Classics, show him to be one of the wittiest and most complex poets of the seventeenth century. With endless literary disguises, rhymes and alliteration, humor and humanity, Rochester's poems hold up a mirror to the extravagances and absurdities of his age.
