Detalles de publicación: Middlesex : Penguin, 1971
Resumen: Grammar, as most people understand it, means tenses, cases, genders, declensions and so on, taught at school but almost invariably forgotten, without apparent loss to our faculties. What we have learnt is English systematically forced into the formal categories of Latin which it will not bend to. Hence 'Between you and me will remain 'correct' long after 'Between you and I' has become the common expression.

After a false star in ninetenth-century fashion as a novelist, he made a reputation as a journalist-critic of books, pictures. music, and the drama Meanwhile he had plunged into the Socialist revival of the eighteen-eighties and come out as one of the leaders who made the Fabian Society famous, figuring prominently not only as a pamphleteer and plattorm orater, but as a serious economist and philosopher, publishing major essays on Ibsen and Wagner. He broke out in a new direction in 1892 as a playright, although it was not until some twelve years later that the opposition he had always to face at first was overcome sufficiently to establish him as an irresistible force in the theatre.

Resumen: Bornes likens the making of fiction to a game of chess, and it is to a game of chess that his fictions, once made, invite their readers ... 'He has one of the sharpest, most exhaustive literary intelligences one will ever meet with; there is endless instruction as well as endless pleasure to be had from reading his work', John Sturrock. The stories in The Book of Sand were all written in Borges's seventies. 'Blind. man's exercises', he calls them. Yet his way of conjuring with images - an infinite book, a one-sided disc, mirrors, a golden mask, a dagger is as potent and beautiful as ever, and he is incapable of losing his visionary touch. 'A marveHous collection to which one will return again and again ... But the book offers more than this, for its second half consists of exquisite poems ... suffice it to say here that Borges can still write a poem about the nightingale, and get away with it. A book to treasure' - Allan Massie in the Scotsman"....

Edición: First Mentor printing. Temas: CONSTITUCIONES; DERECHO; ESTADOS UNIDOS; INGLES.
Tipo de material: Texto; Forma literaria:
No es ficción
Detalles de publicación: New York : Penguin, 1961
Resumen: The Federalist, commonly referred to as the Federalist Papers, is a series of 85 essays written by Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, and James Madison between October 1787 and May 1788. The essays were published anonymously, under the pen name "Publius," in various New York state newspapers of the time. The Federalist Papers were written and published to urge New Yorkers to ratify the proposed United States Constitution, which was drafted in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787. In lobbying for adoption of the Constitution over the existing Articles of Confederation, the essays explain particular provisions of the Constitution in detail. For this reason, and because Hamilton and Madison were each members of the Constitutional Convention, the Federalist Papers are often used today to help interpret the intentions of those drafting the Constitution.

Resumen: Jorge Luis Borges's fictions introduced an entirely new voice into world literature. It is here we find the astonishing accounts of Funes, the man who can forget nothing; the French poet who recreated Don Quixote word for word; the fatal lottery in Babylon; the mysterious planet of Tlön; and the library containing every possible book in the whole universe. Here too are the philosophical detective stories and the haunting tales of Irish revolutionaries, gaucho knife fights and dreams within dreams which proved so influential (and yet impossible to imitate). This collection was eventually to bring Borges international fame; over fifty years later, it remains endlessly intriguing.

Resumen: Living in poverty and struggling from day to day can be a very difficult way to live your life. Most of us, if given the opportunity, would try to make changes to our lives and our situation if we could. Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw that tells the story of a poor, young flower girl who has been disrespected and overlooked because of her appearance and the dialect she speaks. When given the opportunity, she decides to get language lessons in order to gain the respect of others and improve her overall status in life. The outcome of her training is not what she expected, and she is not only able to change her appearance and speech but also gain confidence in her own abilities.

Series The Bernard Shaw libraryTemas: AUTORES IRLANDESES; TEATRO; INGLÉS.
Tipo de material: Texto; Forma literaria:

Detalles de publicación: London : Penguin, s.f
Resumen: Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin, of Protestant stock, in 1856, and died at Aot St Lawrence, Herts, in 1950. The first London perfomance of Pygmalion took place in 1914: Sir Herbert Beerbohm Tree and Mrs Patrick Campbell took the leading roles. From the outset in proved a sensational sucess, although Shaw, irrittated by its popularity at the expense of his artistic intentions, dismissed that Higgins and Eliza would marry he wrote a short-story epilogue with a bitter-sweet ending. Nevertheless, Shaw's dramatization of a Cockney flower girl's metamorphosis into a lady not only is a delightful fantasy but also has women's independence. Its combination of ideas and social comment, together with its rich comie characterization, make it one of the most enduring and ehtertaining of english comedies.
