Nevertheless, his place in the literary canon has not been given to him yet. While he was alive, his works were translated into twenty six languages and there were more than fifty studies written about him. ![]() Moreover Andre Gide and his writings are known all over the world. ![]() We must indicate that there aren't any mutual interactions between Gide and Ahmet Mithat Efendi in their works of art. In other words, literary comparisons between The Counterfeiters and The Observations have been made in terms of the criticism of literary schools, especially the naturalist school, different thoughts on the novel, intertexuality of the text and interactivity of the reader, the mise en abyme, narrative technique, the metafictive and metaphoric communication of the writer with his reader, the evaluation of the heroes by the novelist-character in the fictive world of the novel and the fact that the writing process itself is the subject of the novel, in other words, the novel of the novel. In this study, some literary similarities between The Counterfeiters (1925) by André Gide (1869-1951), French novelist and The Observations (1891) by Ahmet Mithat, Turkish novelist (1844-1913) will be analyzed accordingly with the narrative methods and literary considerations. ![]() ![]() ![]() Thus, the chapter on the kitchen is where he discourses on the Duke of Marlborough, who was "said to be so cheap, he refused to dot his 'I's when he wrote, to save on ink". And his method is to lead us on a history of Britain and North America via the rooms in his house. ![]() ![]() Home, he claims, is where history ends up. While Bryson's book purports to be about private life, it's really about whatever takes his fancy. At Home has all the hallmarks of being written by someone with a certain sort of intellectual thirst, a lavish income and too much time on his hands, qualities that in our own age are more likely to be found not in clergymen, but bestselling authors. They've disappeared now and country vicars are neither rich nor leisured, but Bryson is about as close to a modern equivalent as you can find. He cites the examples of George Bayldon, whose services were so poorly attended he converted half his church into a hen-house, and Reverend George Garrett, who pioneered submarine design. In consequence, many of them began, quite spontaneously, to do remarkable things". He was, Bryson writes, one of "a class of well-educated, wealthy people who had immense amounts of time on their hands. Thomas JG Marsham would have enjoyed an income of around £500 – £400,000 today. In the first chapter of At Home, Bill Bryson surveys his own home, an old Norfolk rectory, and considers the career of the young rector for whom it was built in 1851. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It was one of those books that you put down completely satisfied with the ending, but sit there afterward wishing you could still be in the process of reading it.

The story of Deuce will draw you in and have you laughing, crying, loving, hating every moment and adventure she endures. However, after completion of the series, I have to say I enjoyed it more so than Hunger Games and loathe the ploy to get notice (although it worked)! If you're debating this series, stick to it! It is a truly intriguing find that will keep you wide eyed all night. A várost azonban körülzárták a mutáns korcsok, és fél. Review 1: Absolutely wonderful trilogy!

Eventually it became the cornerstone of a new kind of commerce that depended upon online surveillance at scale. As click-through rates skyrocketed, advertising quickly became as important as search. Here was the origin of surveillance capitalism in an unprecedented and lucrative brew: behavioural surplus, data science, material infrastructure, computational power, algorithmic systems, and automated platforms. The surplus data became the basis for new predictions markets called targeted advertising. And this surplus would then be analysed for hidden meanings that could predict click-through behaviour. The company developed new methods of secret surplus capture that could uncover data that users intentionally opted to keep private, as well as to infer extensive personal information that users did not or would not provide. “Surveillance capitalism was invented around 2001… … Google’s leaders… … decided to boost ad revenue by using their exclusive access to user data logs to generate predictions of user click-through rates, taken as a signal of an ad’s relevance. ![]() ![]() Williams also examines other equally enthralling cephalopods, including the octopus and the cuttlefish, and explores their otherworldly abilities, such as camouflage and bioluminescence.

In Kraken: The Curious, Exciting, and Slightly Disturbing Science of Squid, journalist Wendy Williams introduces one of the ocean’s most charismatic, monstrous, enigmatic, and curious inhabitants: the squid.

What if the computers, phones and other devices were mechanical instead of electronic? Would smartphones have chimneys?Īs far as the fans are concerned, this is largely an aesthetic movement. Steampunk, as it is known, brings together lovers of literature and science fiction that have a common interest in exploring a history that has not existed. Instead, they took nineteenth century technology as starting point, the same that appears in the Jules Verne’s novels. Its followers imagine a future full of innovations … but with a difference: they are not based on the advances of their time. In the late 1980s, a new literary, cultural and aesthetic movement took shape. The materials and fuels for his submarines and helicopters were the heirs of the industrial revolution. While Verne was able to imagine gadgets ahead of his time, he always used familiar elements to build them. ![]() Steampunk: the aesthetics of Verne in the 21st centuryĪ quick look at the novelties appearing in the author’s books reveals one of the main features of his inventions: all are based on the reality of the technological age in which he lived. ![]() ![]() ![]() Debut author Medema brings the Alaskan milieu to life, including showing how Kodiak, who has Tlingit heritage, is seen as “trouble” after a few missteps in a way Delia, who’s white, might not be.
