Classic Philosophy: 6 books by Nietzsche, in German, in a single file, with active table of contents (German Edition) (Kindle Edition)

December 19th, 2010

Classic Philosophy: 6 books by Nietzsche, in German, in a single file, with active table of contents (German Edition)

Product Description

This file includes: Also sprach Zarathustra; Ecce Homo: Wie man wird, was man ist; Die Geburt der Tragödie: Versuch einer Selbstkritik; Götzen-Dämmerung; Jenseits von Gut und Böse; Menschliches, Allzumenschliches: Ein Buch für freie Geister. According to Wikipedia: “Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (October 15, 1844 – August 25, 1900) was a nineteenth-century German philosopher and classical philologist. He wrote critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy, and science, using a distinctive German language style and displaying a fondness for metaphor and aphorism. Nietzsche’s influence remains substantial within and beyond philosophy, notably in existentialism and postmodernism. His style and radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth have resulted in much commentary and interpretation, mostly in the continental tradition, and some analytic philosophy. His key ideas include interpreting tragedy as an affirmation of life, an eternal recurrence (which numerous commentators have re-interpreted), a rejection of Platonism, and a repudiation of both Christianity and Egalitarianism (especially in the form of Democracy and Socialism).”

Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar (Penny Books) (Kindle Edition)

November 24th, 2010

Tarzan and the Jewels of Opar (Penny Books)

Product Description

The woman rushed forward and seized the ape-man’s hands in hers. “Do not leave me!” she cried. “Stay, and you shall be High Priest. La loves you. All Opar shall be yours. Slaves shall wait upon you. Stay, Tarzan of the Apes, and let love reward you.” The ape-man pushed the kneeling woman aside. “Tarzan does not desire you,” he said, simply, and stepping to Werper’s side he cut the Belgian’s bonds and motioned him to follow. Panting–her face convulsed with rage, La sprang to her feet. “Stay, you shall!” she screamed. “La will have you–if she cannot have you alive, she will have you dead”…

Edgar Rice Burroughs created one of the most iconic figures in American pop culture, Tarzan of the Apes, and it is impossible to overstate his influence on entire genres of popular literature in the decades after his enormously winning pulp novels stormed the public’s imagination.

Tarzan the Jewels of Opar, first published in 1918, is the fifth installment in Burroughs’ tales of the ape-man, and is considered by devotees to be one of the best.

Here, Tarzan journeys to the gold-mining city of Opar, steeped in myth and legend, to contend with greedy villains and the amorous attentions of La, the High Priestess of the Flaming God.
