Door Peninsula Shipwrecks

Door County is the final resting place of many shipwrecks, from the first Euro American ship to sail the western Great Lakes, LaSalle's fabled Griffin that left Washington Island in 1679 never to be heard of again, to modern-day pleasure crafts that find the shallow inlets and bays hard to navigate. Door Peninsula Shipwrecks takes the reader on a photographic journey around the peninsula and back to a time of wooden ships and iron men. From Sturgeon Bay to the east coast of the peninsula to the northern islands and Green Bay, the journey encompasses early wooden sail craft to steel steamers, the brave sailors who sailed the treacherous waters, and the heroic lifesavers who rescued them.

La Peau de chagrin (De huid van chagrijn) is de eerste echt grote roman van Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850): het met bewondering ontvangen boek maakte van de veelbelovende debutant in de letteren een geacheveerde schrijver. Hoofdpersoon in deze "filosofische studie" van de Menselijke Komedie is Raphaël de Valentin. De jongeman begeerd, net als Balzac, alles: roem, geld en vrouwen. Zo wordt hij gefascineerd door de beeldschone, doch ongenaakbare Foedora, het idool van heel mannelijk Parijs. Raphaël beseft dat zijn begeertes en ambities zijn levenskrachten ondermijnen: zijn talisman, het magische stuk chagrijnleer, krimpt immers in bij elke vervulling daarvan. La Peau de chagrin belicht het cynische individualisme van de bourgeoismaatschappij zoals die rond 1830 opkwam en die ook nu nog dezelfde kenmerken heeft: corruptie, hypocrisie en winstbejag. Dit verhaal van Raphaël, die de idealen van die samenleving – geld en plezier – wilde veroveren, boeit ook thans nog door zijn "fantastische" vorm en satirische strekking. "Een boek over het wezen van de macht; het heeft betrekking op Balzacs leven en profeteert zijn eigen lot". - V.S. Pritcheit
