"This book chronicles the long hunt for Nazi war criminals and the swift justice they are dealt by Jewish avengers.…
Beginning with accounts of Jewish vengeance, the book then describes the complicated escape plans of top Nazi leaders and their underground aid network, and ends in Mato Grosso, the jungle located on the Brazilian and Argentine borders that, when the book was written, was a sort of renegade Nazi badland." -- Provided by NLS.

Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Brontë and first published in 1847, has been translated more than five hundred times into…
over sixty languages. Prismatic Jane Eyre argues that we should see these many re-writings, not as simple replications of the novel, but as a release of its multiple interpretative possibilities: in other words, as a prism. Prismatic Jane Eyre develops the theoretical ramifications of this idea, and reads Brontë’s novel in the light of them: together, the English text and the many translations form one vast entity, a multilingual world-work, spanning many times and places, from Cuba in 1850 to 21st-century China; from Calcutta to Bologna, Argentina to Iran. Co-written by many scholars, Prismatic Jane Eyre traces the receptions of the novel across cultures, showing why, when and where it has been translated (and no less significantly, not translated – as in Swahili), and exploring its global publishing history with digital maps and carousels of cover images. Above all, the co-authors read the translations and the English text closely, and together, showing in detail how the novel’s feminist power, its political complexities and its romantic appeal play out differently in different contexts and in the varied styles and idioms of individual translators. Tracking key words such as ‘passion’ and ‘plain’ across many languages via interactive visualisations and comparative analysis, Prismatic Jane Eyre opens a wholly new perspective on Brontë’s novel, and provides a model for the collaborative close-reading of world literature. Prismatic Jane Eyre is a major intervention in translation and reception studies and world and comparative literature. It will also interest scholars of English literature, and readers of the Brontës.Divine Style: Walt Whitman and the King James Bible

In exploring the seminal works of Walt Whitman, the great American poet, many commentators have acknowledged the underlying influence of…
The King James Bible. However, a study has yet to elucidate the precise manner in which the Bible has shaped Whitman’s poetic style. This is the deficit that F. W. Dobbs-Allsopp seeks to address in his new piece of literary scholarship: 'Divine Style: Walt Whitman and the King James Bible'. Dobbs-Allsopp, Professor of Old Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary, explicitly approaches Whitman from the perspective of a biblical scholar. Utilising his wealth of expertise in this field, he constructs a compelling, erudite and methodical argument for the King James Bible’s importance in the evolution of Whitman’s style – from his signature long lines to the prevalence of parallelism and tendency towards parataxis in his works. 'Divine Style' focuses on Whitman’s output in the years preceding the release of his 1855 opus 'Leaves of Grass' through the general period of the book’s first three editions. In this, Dobbs-Allsopp’s exploration of the period is exhaustive – covering not just Leaves of Grass but recently recovered notebooks, newly digitised manuscripts and additions to the corpus, such as the novel 'Life and Adventures of Jack Engle'. This is a work of careful, detailed scholarship, offering an authoritative commentary that will be a valuable resource for students of Whitman, biblical scholars and scholars of literature more generally.Uro: En paranormal kjærlighetsroman (Profanebiblioteket - Bok to - #2)

Jeg hater å tape, og det virker som om jeg er i en serie av nederlag. Maleriet til Dorian Gray…
lå aldri i hvelvet til biblioteket. Vi har for øyeblikket null ide på hvor den er, og den eneste personen som kan spore det opp blir sannsynligvis holdet som gissel på en lagringsplass med alle slags forbannede gjenstander. Kuken til Balthazar er fortsatt forbannet, og det er ingen enkel måte å fjerne den på. Jeg har allerede gjort det verre en gang. Jeg håper den ikke faller av denne gangen. Jeg var helt i mot å gifte meg med Reyson da han våknet og kunngjorde at jeg ville bli hans nye kone, men besluttsomheten min svekkes... Jeg begynner å bry meg om den jævla guden. De eneste som vet hvor maleriet til Dorian er, er Dorian og demonmesteren til Bram. Selv om vi finner Dorian, så kan vi ikke drepe ham uten maleriet hans. Jeg vet bedre enn noen at når en heks virkelig ikke vil at du skal rote i tingene deres, så er utfallet vanligvis dødelig. Jeg forstår at vi trenger demonmesteren, men siden vi alle risikerer livene våre for å få ham ut av den fellen, bør han gi Bram friheten sin, fordi jeg trives å ha den Helveteshunden i nærheten. Jeg begynner å bry meg om alle disse folkene som har krasjet inn i livet mitt og biblioteket mitt, men jeg savner de vanlige dagene der jeg hjalp med forbannelser, trylleformler og territoriale uenigheter. Jeg vil gjerne forsvinne inn i erotikkavdelingen vår en liten stund og late som om Dorian Gray ikke samler en hær av overnaturlige vesener.
