James Gibbons Huneker (January 31, 1857 - February 9, 1921) was an American art, book, music, and theater critic. A colorful individual and an ambitious writer, he was "an American with a great mission," in the words of his friend, the critic Benjamin de Casseres, and that mission was to educate Americans about the best cultural achievements, native and European, of his time.Huneker was born in Philadelphia. Forced by his parents to study law, he knew that a legal career was not what he wanted; he was passionately interested in music and writing, hoping one day to be a concert pianist and a novelist. At twenty-one, he abandoned his office job and Philadelphia ties and (with his pregnant girlfriend, then wife) left for Paris, telling his parents that he was departing only the night before the ship sailed.[1] On a tight budget supplemented with money his parents sent, he studied piano under Leopold Doutreleau in Paris and audited the piano class of Frédéric Chopin's pupil Georges Mathias. He also began a lifelong immersion in European art and literature and was thrilled to catch sight on his wanderings through the city of Victor Hugo, Ivan Turgenev, Gustave Flaubert, Guy de Maupassant, and Émile Zola as well as Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas.[2] That year abroad changed Huneker's life.
Huneker and his wife and child returned to Philadelphia the following year, but he was never happy again in his native city and longed for the wider stage of New York, where he hoped to try his luck as a journalist while he continued his study of music. He moved to New York City in 1886, having abandoned his wife and child.[3] There he scraped by, giving piano lessons and living a downtown bohemian life, while he studied with Franz Liszt's student Rafael Joseffy, who became his friend and mentor. (Huneker's musical gods were Liszt, Chopin, and Brahms. He published a biography of Chopin in 1900 and wrote the commentary on Chopin's complete works for Schirmer's music publishing company. His analysis of the piano solo works of Johannes Brahms, written shortly after that composer's complete works were published posthumously, is still highly regarded.) By the 1890s, after finally giving up his dream of a music career for himself, he was working full-time as a freelance critic responsible for covering the music, art, and theater scene of New York. A voracious reader, he also became a prolific and entertaining book reviewer. [mehr]

Fred Lewis Pattee was born on his grandfather’s farm near Bristol, New Hampshire, on March 22, 1863. Pattee was the son of farmer Lewis Franklin Pattee and Mary Philbrick Ingalls. During his youth, Pattee studied at public schools in Bristol and South Alexandria, then went on to work as a printer’s assistant in Bristol until 1882. From 1882 to 1883, Pattee studied at New Hampton Institution outside Bristol, then worked as a printer and a waiter in Rhode Island until he enrolled at Dartmouth College in 1884. While at Dartmouth, he worked as a part-time teacher to help pay the cost of his degree and served as editor of the Dartmouth Literary Monthly during his senior year. Pattee graduated from Dartmouth College in 1888.
Though Pattee desired to become a journalist, his financial situation demanded that he find work teaching. For a short time in 1888, Pattee held a position at a grammar school in Eatontown, New Jersey, though poor health prevented him from teaching for an extended time at the school. In 1889, he married Anna Lura Plumer, with whom he had his only child, Sarah Lewis Pattee, born in 1895. Pattee worked intermittently as a reporter, high school principal, and academy principal from 1889 to 1894, and published some of his earliest works at this time. Pattee’s The Wine of May, and Other Lyrics was printed in 1893. In 1894, Pattee filled in for the sole member and department head of the English Department at the Pennsylvania State College (now the Pennsylvania State University) as an Assistant Professor, and later earned a promotion to Full Professor in 1895.
Pattee’s publications at this time included the 1896 article “Is There an American Literature?” that appeared in the Chicago journal Dial, as well as textbooks and historical works aimed to improve education in American literature. Specifically, Pattee aimed to establish American literature as a field worthy of study in its own right, not just as a subset of the well-established British literature. He published his best-known work, A History of American Literature Since 1870, in 1915. In its Preface, Pattee argued: [mehr]

Schön zu lesen ...
Der Autor Tork Poettschke berichtet in einem seiner unzähligen Werke 'N8SCHICHT' mal wieder vom Leben, Gott & seiner Politik. Die Schriften entstanden über einen längeren Zeitraum; teilweise in klösterlicher Abgeschiedenheit.
Poettschke wurde 1980 in der westdeutschen Westfalenmetropole Dortmund geboren. Lebte, liebte und arbeitete seit dem Besuch des Gymnasiums am legendären Borsigplat, Do-Nord, in eiserner Junggeselligkeit als freier Journalist und Künstler, Musiker, Poet, Reporter.
Keiner kann an irgendeinem Punkt der vorliegenden Schriften nicht sagen, das habe man nicht schon irgendwann mal erlebt. Ein roter Faden in 'N8schicht', die Liebe. Jene Über-Liebe, welche uns alle bewegt, nicht ruhen lässt - gerade in den heutigen, unsicheren Zeiten, wo DONALD TRUMP, MERKEL, ERDOGAN oder PUTIN den unseren kapitalistisch geprägten Erdenball bestimmen. Ja, es läuft auf die Barbarei hinaus, sollte sich nicht grundsätzlich etwas an den Verhältnissen ändern !?
Was bleibt?? Die Kinder! Seine zwei halbafrikanischen Kinder liegen Tork Poettschke alias Christopher Doemges am Herzen. (Er besuchte Guinea-Conacry in Westafrika, die Philippinen, Israel.) Etwa daraus entstand das Buch SCHWARZE MANN IN WEISSE LAND, aber auch STAATENLOS - Die Gedichte eines Freundes.
"SO LASST UNS IMMER POSITIV NACH VORNE BLICKEN!!" (Tork Poettschke).
Kleiner Spaß am Rande, ganz nebenbei bemerkt: Was ist das Gegenteil vom dt. Nationaltorhüter Manuel Neuer?? Antwort, na klar: Automatisch älter ... hihi ... So lassen wir uns denn durch vorliegende Schrift in eine Welt der durchwachten Nächte entführen, des Eingesperrtseins, wie auch der Ruhelosigkeit. NOBODY IS PERFECT!! Und doch haben wir alle das Bestreben, uns in eine Welt 'hinein zu optimieren', welche jedwedem Anspruch gerecht wird.
Möge dieses Buch dazu beitragen, des Lesers Fantasie zu beflügeln, ihn in unser aller Unvollkommenheit nicht allein und isoliert zu lassen. Mahlzeit!!
Scherzfrage: Welches ist der härterste Sport der Welt?? Antwort: Fußball; da wird geköpft und geschossen ...
Dies ist der Band für alle Fälle!! So man nach einem stressigen Tag des Abends nach Hause kommt, tut es gut, sich auf die Couch zu fläzen; sich von ein bisschen 'Weltliteratur-to-go' inspirieren, ja, bezirzen zu lassen. Wer hat nicht schon mal den Drang verspürt, sich während eines ausgefüllten Sommers einfach auf einer Bank im Stadtpark niederzulassen; in ausgefüllten Schmökern zu blättern.
Dieses Werk könnte Gelegenheit hierzu geben. HEIMKEHR IST DIE COUCH ZUHAUSE.

"Today, 16 August 1997, the "Council for the Establishment of the European Police Office" meets. This follows up the official complaint lodged by newspaper editor Frank Benninger. The investigation focuses on the incident which occurred on the night of 28 June. That night, Interpol agent David Connelly penetrated Mr Benninger's house..."
For the first, but not the last time in his career at Interpol, David Connelly, a British Army agent and former sniper, has to justify his impulsive actions in front of a committee. Perhaps the young man has indeed gone too far in his desperate search for his missing partner. In a mission where the two agents tried to find evidence against drug and arms dealer Frank Benninger, David lost track of his partner.
Two years after this incident, Sarah Ritter steps David's life and he falls head over heels in love with the young woman. When he can save her from a man from her past, he gets a first glimpse of the appalling situations into which Sarah gets time and again owed to her beauty. Will the Interpol agent be able to protect his newly found love from the monsters out there?
His abilities are put to a hard test when Sarah starts with the "Berlin News Courier". There she gets caught in the clutches of the owner - Frank Benninger. The couple has to fight against an enemy who is no ordinary criminal. Through his membership in the mysterious organization "AFS" he seems to be untouchable. The "Association of Free Scientists" has long pursued the goal of conquering space through its research in the field of quantum physics. The powerful bosses of the AFS want to win the race to the stars using all means at their disposal.
"Save him and you save humanity!"
With this mysterious message of unknown origin and the attached information material David is made aware of the ingenious physicist Peter Calder and thus also of the AFS, for which the latter is working. David decides to help the scientist and dives into a world whose existence he never thought possible.
The Interpol agent and the budding journalist not only experience an exciting love story, but the lovers also get into a conspiracy of galactic proportions. In this struggle, which begins in 1996 and culminates in the present, David and Sarah often reach their moral limits. They are assisted by David's colleague Tom Bauer and his superior Richard Stanton. And time and again, everyone involved encounters the mysterious "man-in-the-suit". [mehr]

This warm-hearted and funny love story captivates with its lively dialogues. In conjunction with an exciting conspiracy thriller it offers the reader an incomparable reading pleasure.
Already with his first words, he underlined his reputation of a hard and always frank lecturer, “I don’t intend to remember your names. Not because I’m not able to, but because I don’t want to waste any brain capacity. It’s needed for more important things I can assure you of this. Most of you will not be able to follow me and the complex subject anyway, so you will soon leave the course.”
Full of expectation, Theresa looked directly into the professor's eyes. He was around 6’1’ and rather skinny. His curly hair was tamed by a short haircut, which made his narrow face look younger. The professor seemed charming to her. That is he was charming until he opened his mouth.
“What a nice guy”, Theresa thought when he introduced himself.
Theresa Winter enrolls at the University of Berlin after a thirteen-year compulsory break from her studies. There she meets the Scottish guest lecturer Peter Calder. She takes a course in quantum physics with the ingenious but quite misanthropic professor. His cynical appearance does not put her off she falls in love with the extremely intelligent man. Two extraordinary people meet, who seem to be made for each other. If it wasn't for the big age difference.
Thirty-one year old Theresa simply brushes aside the concerns of the not-so-young man calling them “bullshit". But is it really as simple as the young woman imagines? The young pretty woman, who is anything but rational, turns the quiet world of the perfectly rational physicist upside down so that he soon thinks he is going to lose his mind.
Together with her professor, she takes quantum physics a big step forward. Exactly the field in which her parents had done research. When Theresa and Peter are kidnapped by the former boss of the Winters, Edward Barnes, Theresa wonders into what her parents and now she herself have gotten into. And what about the dangerous man-in-the-suit who seems to be everywhere?
They receive help from Interpol agent David Connelly and his wife, investigative journalist Sarah Ritter.
And what does the computer specialist from Europol Tom Bauer know? [mehr]

"The Lurking Fear" is a story by H. P. Lovecraft in the horror fiction genre. The narrator, hearing tales of a "lurking fear" upon Tempest Mountain in the Catskills, takes two men with him to investigate. They camp inside the deserted Martense mansion as a lightning storm approaches, and feeling strangely drowsy, they all fall asleep. The narrator wakes up to find both his companions missing, and in a flash of lightning sees a demonic shadow cast upon the fireplace chimney from a grotesque monsters like the other one.
Continuing his investigation, the narrator teams up with Arthur Munroe, another journalist. The two find as much information as they can on the mansion and environs, until they find themselves trapped by yet another storm. Bunkered in a small cabin, they witness a bright flash of lightning. Arthur looks out the window to survey the damage. The narrator, curious as to why Arthur is still staring out the window, turns him to find his face chewed off. As the narrator digs open the grave of Jan Martense, he describes the history of the Martense family. Upon reaching the coffin, he continues to dig, and subsequently falls into a subterranean burrow. He crawls along, until he sees two eyes reflecting his torch-light in the darkness. Yet another lightning-strike causes the tunnel to cave in above the beast and the narrator has to dig his way to the surface. He spots a red glare in the distance that he learns was a cabin that the hillside squatters had set alight with one of the beasts inside.
The narrator continues to search for more clues, until it occurs to him that peculiar mounds of earth lead out in lines from the mansion. He finds a burrow entrance in the basement as another storm approaches. Finding a hiding place, he watches as countless creatures crawl from the hole. The narrator then sees one of the weaker members of the grotesque mob get attacked and eaten by one of its compatriots. He shoots one of the creatures as it straggles behind the rest of the pack using a clap of thunder to disguise the muzzle blast, and upon closer inspection, notices the creature's heterochromia and realizes that the deformed, hair-covered creature is in fact a member of the Martense family, who after many years of isolation have degenerated into apelike creatures.

"Ich bin primitiv"
Das behauptet der Autor dieses Buches von sich selbst!
Ein Journalist: "Ein Meisterwerk der Elendsliteratur. Der Autor erzählt von Elend und Not, von Ausbeutung, Skrupellosigkeit und Kriminalität – von Lebensverhältnissen, die er aus seiner Arbeit bestens kennt. Der gesamte Schmutz der Grossstadt kommt zum Vorschein."
Das grauenhafte Leben eines Schlüsseldienst Mannes. Lesen Sie wie schlecht es den Schlüsseldienst Mitarbeitern geht - und freuen Sie sich!
Dieses Buch steht stellvertretend für alle hart arbeitenden Menschen.
Ironie pur vom Meister persönlich
Überall kleben die Sticker vom Schlüsseldienst. Rot – Grün – Blau – meistens aber Gelb. Auf dem Postkasten, auf der schwarzen Tafel, auf der Tür, immer in Augenhöhe, unauffällig, aber doch gut sichtbar. Garantiert haben Sie die Werbekleber dieser Minifirmen schon öfters gesehen. Vielleicht haben Sie sich darüber geärgert, vielleicht haben Sie sogar schon mal selbst in einer Notsituation angerufen. Allerdings haben Sie garantiert noch nie darüber nachgedacht, wer diese Menschen sind, die diese bunten Werbebotschaften verbotenerweise hinterlassen. Wie lebt ein Schlüsseldienst? Sind das überhaupt Menschen? Und überhaupt, wer arbeitet beim Schlüsseldienst? Begleiten Sie einen Schlossermeister einen Tag lang bei seiner Arbeit durch die Vielfalt der Grossstadt. Steigen Sie in seinen alten Lieferwagen ein und fahren Sie mit!
Eine witzige und rasante Geschichte, amüsant und kurzweilig zu lesen.
24 Stunden sind verdammt lang im Kampf gegen Kunden, Schlösser und Beamte!
Begleiten Sie einen Schlüsseldienst-Monteur einen Tag:
Es ist die reine Hölle!
Der Autor erzählt vom weit gefächerten Spektrum seiner Aufträge. Er schildert menschliche Dramen unsichtbare Not, und von privilegierten Beamtentum, die von der Ausweglosigkeit der zumeist völlig verarmten Bevölkerung ihren Nutzen zieht. Er schreibt von illegaler Prostitution der Jugend und vom fehlenden sozialen Netz in einer Stadt, die sich sozial der Welt präsentiert. Mit harten Worten schildert er widerliche Ereignisse in Gaststätten oder mit besonderer Sachlichkeit beschreibt er einen lebensgefährlichen Polizeieinsatz mit einem bewaffneten Gewalttäter. Mit dieser Story werden Ihnen Seiten gezeigt, wie diese Männer mit dem Geheimwissen Türen aufzusperren zu können, erbärmlich tagtäglich das Leben meistern. Obwohl, Leben kann man das nicht bezeichnen eher mehr so eine Art Sklavendienst. Oder besser der Trottel vom Dienst, weil wahrlich nicht mehr drinnen steckt. Der Autor, ein Leid geplagter Schlüsseldienstler offenbart mit seinem Werk die wahre Seite des unbekannten Mannes vom Notdienst. Er spricht seinen BerufskollegInnen aus der Seele und vergisst dabei nicht eine gehörige Portion Humor. Eine tragisch-komische Geschichte, jedoch ist "Lachen erlaubt "
Dieses Buch ist voll mit Rechtschreibfehlern Warum? - Weil der Autor primitiv ist!
