The Me You Stole
Being overweight isn't a crime--it's just something shameful, Andrea's mother is quick to remind her. But that's to be expected in a world where technology and magic makes body goals and perfection attainable. ***** Andrea's mother has high hopes for a male heir to lead their household. Andrea must find a husband--and fast. Without a perfect body, however, there are few prospects. For Andrea, on the verge of being disowned, the inability to control something as simple as her weight further exemplifies her other failings. She heralds from the noble class, lovers of tech who frown upon mingling with the servant magic wielders. But with only one year to secure the title of the estate, Andrea ha...
Andrea Delfin și alte nuvele
Andrea Delfin este plasată în Republica venețiană a jumătății secolului al XVIII-lea. Protagonistul este un fost nobil dat mort și care, sub o identitate falsă de notar, revine după mulți ani într-o Veneție tiranică, pentru a răsturna, de unul singur, orânduirea coruptă și criminală. Bănuita conjurație este alcătuită dintr-un singur om, „un Wilhelm Tell italian“, un justițiar motivat de ură, fără scrupule, care folosește împotriva tribunalului inchizitorial propriile arme ale spionajului și conspirației, stârnind, la rându-i, teroare. Scris cu eleganță și cu fidelitate față de aerul și peisajul politic al epocii, cu o atmosferă viu colorată și narat alert, cu bune momente de suspans, acest thriller politic de secol al XVIII-lea vorbește, în fond, tot despre amăgirea revoltei împotriva destinului istoric, răzbunarea dovedindu-se, și aici, o tactică cu două tăișuri. Eșecul vine ca un fel de pedeapsă de sine pentru cel care, orbit de ură, luptă împotriva crimei ucigând.
Diversity in Coastal Marine Sciences
This book integrates a wide range of subjects into a coherent purview of the status of coastal marine science. Designed for the professional or specialist in coastal science, oceanography, and related disciplines, this work will appeal to workers in multidisciplinary fields that strive for practical solutions to environmental problems in coastal marine settings around the world. Examples are drawn from many different geographic areas, including the Black Sea region. Subject areas covered include aspects of coastal marine geology, physics, chemistry, biology, and history. These subject areas were selected because they form the basis for integrative investigation of salient environmental problems or perspective solutions or interpretation of historical context.

10th Conference on British and American Studies - Crossing Boundaries
This book consists of a collection of papers on specific issues centred around three broad areas of scholarly interest: native language analysis, foreign language acquisition and training, and cultural and literary studies. It provides a concise snapshot of the multiplicity of vantage points from which language, literature and culture-related phenomena can be studied and accounted for. The unifying principle behind the variety of issues and approaches illustrated here is the overarching notion of Englishness treated as an object of intellectual inquiry (with a focus on the English-speaking communities, their cultures, English-based creole languages) and as a repository of methodological blueprints applicable in explorations of other languages and cultures. The authors of the articles included in this volume are academics and junior researchers who, on the occasion of the 10th Conference on British and American Studies, convened to share their ideas and pave the way for further work in intersecting research areas subsumed under linguistics, sociolinguistics, and cultural studies.
