Miscellaneous Essays
ISBN: 9781548302719 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In Macbeth, for the sake of gratifying his own enormous and teeming faculty of creation, Shakspeare has introduced two murderers: and, as usual in his hands, they are remarkably discriminated: but, though in Macbeth the strife of mind is greater than in his wife, the tiger spirit not so awake, and his feelings caught chiefly by contagion from her, -yet, as both were finally involved in the guilt of murder, the murderous mind of necessity is finally to be presumed in both. This was to be expressed; and on its own account, as well as to make it a more proportionable antagonist to the...

Thomas De Quincey's 'Confessions of an English Opium-Eater' is a groundbreaking work of autobiography that delves into the author's struggles with opium addiction in the 19th century.

Once upon a time, opium, the main ingredient in heroin, was easily available over the chemist's counter. The secret of happiness, about which philosophers have disputed for so many ages, could be bought for a penny, and carried in the waistcoat pocket--portable ecstasies could be corked up in a pint bottle.""Paradise? So thought Thomas de Quincey, but he soon discovered that "nobody will laugh long who deals much with opium."

Vražda jako krásné umění
ISBN: 9788076751408 / Czeski / 2023 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Pokud odhlédneme od morální stránky, můžeme na vraždu nahlížet z estetického hlediska jako na umělecký akt. Jak zločinec ve svém díle navázal na dosavadní tradici? V čem byl jeho výkon inovativní? Využil dostatečně potenciál vražedných nástrojů? Jak pracoval s kompozicí? Vražda jako krásné umění Thomase de Quinceyho je dílo morbidní a černohumorně zábavné. Ve formě stylizovaných přednášek v gentlemanském klubu popisuje několik děsivých zločinů, současně však s ironií pojmenovává sklony moderní společnosti vyžívat se v násilí. V...
