Der Wiener Hofsekretär Jaromir von Eynhuf will seinem Landesvater Kaiser Franz I. zu dessen 25. Thronjubiläum seine Milchzahnsammlung überreichen. Inzwischen besitzt der Sekretär bereits stolze 24 Zähne, allesamt akkurat auf Samt drapiert. Doch zur Darstellung der Jubiläumszahl fehlt noch ein letzter Zahn und so beginnt eine wilde Jagd nach dem 25. Exemplar. Fritz von Herzmanovsky-Orlando, 1877 in Wien geboren, hat mit »Der Gaulschreck im Rosennetz« der K.-u.-k.-Monarchie ein unvergessliches literarisches Denkmal gesetzt – meisterhaft gelesen von Werner Kreindl.

Wooed away from a top job at a competing firm by Ed Roth with promises of breaking the glass ceiling when she succeeds him as the head of the investment bank Drake Carlson, Kate learns that she has real potential for the top spot. First, she must prove her worth by unconventionally putting together an IPO for a small games maker whose most valuable but unknown asset may be a painting stolen from a Jewish family as they fled Austria after the Nazi invasion. Kate’s professional challenges play out amid a family crisis: Her husband’s company is imploding and he may have to relocate to a remote part of China to save even a small portion of his business.

Glamorous international art-dealer Elizabeth Teerlinc knows a thing or two about fakes. After all, she is one herself. Her real identity, Judith Rashleigh, is buried under a layer of lies. Not to mention the corpses of the men foolish enough to get in her way. But now, caught in the murderous crossfire between a Russian Mafia boss and a corrupt Italian police detective, Judith is forced to create an even more daring work of art - a fake masterpiece she must take to the world-famous auction house where she used to be a lowly assistant and sell for $150 million.

'An enchanting debut' Woman's Own November 1942 Dear Elizabeth, I've got myself a new project, to cheer myself up a bit. It has absolutely nothing to do with the war effort. We're completely starved of art in London these days. Anything decent was stashed away by the authorities years ago.But...

Story0
When Trisha Low moves West, her journey is motivated by the need to arrive “somewhere better” - someplace utopian, like revolution; or safe, like home; or even clarifying, like identity. Instead, she faces the end of her relationships, a family whose values she has difficulty sharing, and America’s casual racism, sexism, and homophobia. In this book-length essay, the problem of how to account for one’s life comes to the fore - sliding unpredictably between memory, speculation, self-criticism, and art criticism, Low seeks answers that she knows she won’t find.

Composer John Cage sought the silence of a mind at peace with itself - and found it in Zen Buddhism, a spiritual path that changed both his music and his view of the universe. "Remarkably researched, exquisitely written", Where the Heart Beats weaves together "a great many threads of cultural history" (Maria Popova, Brain Pickings) to illuminate Cage’s struggle to accept himself and his relationship with choreographer Merce Cunningham. Freed to be his own man, Cage originated exciting experiments that set him at the epicenter of a new avant-garde forming in the 1950s.

No hi ha una sola Roma; n'hi ha tantes com mirades hi reposen, tantes com passejades o cafès. Roma és un pòsit d'hores viscudes, d'esglésies on tornes a entrar, de columnes i negronis, de l'art que fascina i els ocres que t'atrapen. Aquesta és una Roma íntima, feta de records personals, de viatges i anècdotes, de les veus d'uns altres i de la pròpia veu que mira de copsar-la a través dels detalls. Un poble que és capital sentimental. No és una guia turística ni una enciclopèdia històrica, sinó un retrat de la ciutat i, alhora, un autoretrat de qui la mira i la viu.

Across time and across the world, an ancient serpent cult once dominated mankind. Then a great battle ensued and Christianity stamped its authority on the face of the planet. Now, after years of research, the real religious history of the world can be told. In Secrets of the Serpent, Philip Gardiner for the first time reveals the secret of the Holy Grail and Elixir of Life, and how the world's most mysterious places were once sacred to the serpent cult.

What is art? A mere imitation of life or something far greater—an act of creation that reveals the soul of the universe? Ralph Waldo Emerson, the philosopher-poet of American transcendentalism, elevates art beyond the canvas, beyond words, beyond form itself. In this essay, he explores the divine spark within creativity, arguing that true art is not bound by technique or tradition but flows from the spirit of the artist, a force both mysterious and essential.

Die beiden Freunde Gilbert und Ernst diskutieren darüber, in wieweit Kritik an Kunst eine eigene Kunstform abbildet und größere intellektuelle und künstlerische Fähigkeiten voraussetzt als das Erschaffen eines Kunstwerks. Dabei entfaltet sich ein Regenbogen formaler und ästhetischer Gesichtspunkte von Kunst und ihr Dialog spannt einen eleganten Bogen zum facettenreichen Kern des Themas.

Sheridan Morley writes: "When my father died at eighty-four on the morning of Derby Day 1992 (one of the few he ever missed), he and I had been together for just over fifty years. In the immediate aftermath of his sudden death, I knew two things; how much I would always miss the sheer joy of his company, and how much I wanted to write about him, if only to explain to myself and my children the life and career of the last great Boulevardier of his or any other time."

Tarea es la de pintar a Don Quijote hasta más difícil que la de hinchar un perro. No ya ilustrar la obra imperecedera de Cervantes, sino vestir de carne visible y concreta un espíritu individual y vivo, no mera idea abstracta. Con escrupuloso cuidado me he entretenido en entresacar de las páginas vivas de El Ingenioso Hidalgo, cuantos pasajes se refieren más o menos directamente a los caracteres físicos de Don Quijote. Invito al lector a que divaguemos un poco acerca de la expresión pictórica de este símbolo vivo.
