Das Ist Daf DAF - LP 5060238633765

A brand-new collection of Sinclair Lewis's prolific body of short fiction, focusing on the author's primary concerns: the issue of class, work and money in America.

Four years after their last studio album 'Rosenrot' comes this eagerly anticipated sixth full-length from the German industrial metallers, whose title translates as 'Love is there for all'. Produced by the band with their long-term collaborator Jacob Hellner, it is already being spoken about in hushed tones as their best work since 2001's 'Mutter'. It features some of the heaviest material they have ever recorded as well as lyrics in English for the first time, notably on the controversial singl

Amidst Sinclair Lewis s many remarkable novels are more than a hundred short stories which he wrote over forty-four years. Selected Short Stories contains those selected by Lewis himself for a 1935 edition and illustrates the wide range of his art and interest: tales of romantic fantasy or escape, melodramas of heroic or mock-heroic adventure, boy-meets-girl stories, satires of pretension and folly, and tales of isolation and loneliness. Lewis often played variations on themes more fully developed in his novels. In his introduction, James W. Tuttleton calls Lewis an excellent storyteller with an enviable command of narrative ¦At his best Lewis s short stories, like his novels, accomplish the remarkable feat described by E.M. Forster: What Mr. Lewis has done for myself and thousands of others is to lodge a piece of a continent in our imagination.

Sinclair Lewis, celebrated author of Babbitt and Main Street, wrote more than twenty novels in the course of his prolific career, most of which went through several editions over the years. This is the definitive descriptive bibliography of the Lewis catalog, now available with a new biographical essay and dozens of additional entries. A full chapter is devoted to each novel, including close-up photos of covers and spines as well as comprehensive information about original publishers, prices, print runs, and bindings. Stephen R. Pastore’s book will be an invaluable book collector’s and scholar’s guide to the identification of original Lewis volumes. 

Sinclair Lewis Remembered is a collection of reminiscences and memoirs by contemporaries, friends, and associates of Lewis that offers a revealing and intimate portrait of this complex and significant Nobel Prize–winning American writer.After a troubled career as a student at Yale, Sinclair Lewis turned to literature as his livelihood, publishing numerous works of popular fiction that went unnoticed by critics. With the 1920s, however, came Main Street, Lewis’s first critical success, which was soon followed by Babbitt, Arrowsmith, Elmer Gantry, and Dodsworth—five of the most influential social novels in the history of American letters, all written within one decade. Nevertheless, Lewis’s Nobel Prize for Literature in 1930 led to controversy. Writers such as Theodore Dreiser, William Faulkner, and Thomas Mann expressed their dissent with the decision. Unable to match his previous success, Lewis suffered from alcoholism, alienated colleagues, and embraced unpopular political positions. The nadir for Lewis’s literary reputation was Mark Schorer’s 1961 biography, Sinclair Lewis: An American Life, which helped to legitimize the dismissal of Lewis’s entire body of work. Recent scholarly research has seen a resurgence of interest in Lewis and his writings. The multiple and varied perspectives found in Sinclair Lewis Remembered, edited by Gary Scharnhorst and Matthew Hofer, illustrate uncompromised glimpses of a complicated writer who should not be forgotten. The more than 115 contributions to this volume include reminiscences by Upton Sinclair, Edna Ferber, Alfred Harcourt, Samuel Putnam, H. L. Mencken, John Hersey, Hallie Flanagan, and many others.

Excerpt from Der Midrasch Bereschit Rabba, das Ist die Haggadische Auslegung der Genesis: Zum Ersten Male ins Deutsche ÜbertragenEbenso bestimmt und entschieden wird die gütige Vorsehung Gottes und die sittliche Freiheit des Menschen betont. „alles, was Gott gemacht hat, ist gut, sehr gut gut ist das Leben, sehr gut der Tod; gut ist das Glück, sehr gut das Missgeschick, die Leiden, da der Mensch durch sie gebessert wird und dadurch zur ewigen Seligkeit kommt; gut ist der Trieb zu den Tugenden, sehr gut der Trieb zum Bösen; denn nur durch freie Wahl und durch Ankämpfen gegen Hindernisse erhält die Tugend ihren Werth. Dahin gehört auch das Wort, der Mensch müsse eine Neuschöpfung an sich voll ziehen; wie man andere Naturerzeugnisse in ihrem Rohzustand durch die Arbeit veredelt, so müsse auch der Mensch sich sittlich veredeln, und sich nicht in dem Rohzustande lassen, worin er von Natur aus sich befindet.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Sie möchten endlich wissen, was sich hinter Schlagworten wie „Data Science“ und „Machine Learning“ eigentlich verbirgt – und was man alles damit anstellen kann? Auf allzu viel Mathematik würden Sie dabei aber gern verzichten? Dann sind Sie hier genau richtig: Dieses Buch bietet einen kompakten Einblick in die wichtigsten Schlüsselkonzepte der Datenwissenschaft und ihrer Algorithmen – und zwar ohne Sie mit mathematischen Formeln und Details zu belasten! Der Fokus liegt – nach einer übergeordneten Einführung – auf Anwendungen des maschinellen Lernens zur Mustererkennung und Vorhersage von Ergebnissen: In jedem Kapitel wird ein Algorithmus erläutert und mit einem leicht verständlichen, realen Anwendungsbeispiel verknüpft. Die Kombination aus intuitiven Erklärungen und zahlreichen Abbildungen ermöglicht dabei ein grundlegendes Verständnis, das ohne mathematische Formelsprache auskommt. Abschließend werden auch die Grenzen und Nachteile der betrachteten Algorithmen explizit aufgezeigt.
