First published in 1890, this book established psychology as a science and served as the quintessential work in the field for decades. James' intricate studies and paradigm-shifting ideas transformed the way we look at human thought and action.

The book is published in two volumes, the first containing Chapters I through XVI and the second continuing from XVII to XXVIII.

It wasn't supposed to be like this.... I wasn't supposed to be boyfriendless, homeless, and jobless at 28. And I most definitely wasn't supposed to hit Hollywood's resident bad boy Gabriel Evans with my car and break his foot. Now I'm stuck in his apartment, taking care of him while he's incapacitated. Living with the hottest guy in Hollywood, who I've had a crush on forever, doesn't sound like a chore, right? Wrong. Gabriel Evans is rude and crude and drinks way too much, and as soon as his foot is healed I'm out of here. So why do I keep forgetting to check the classifieds?

They say that life is a beautiful lie and death a painful truth. They're right. No one has ever made me feel more alive than the guy who serves as a constant reminder that my clock is ticking. He is my forbidden, shiny apple. The striking fallacy to my blunt, raw, truth. He is also my sister's ex-boyfriend. One thing you should know before you judge me: I saw him first. I craved him first. I loved him first. Eleven years later, he waltzed into my life, demanding a second chance. Dean Cole wants to be my bronze horseman. Hopefully, he isn't too late.

A full-length standalone romantic comedy from USA TODAY best-selling author R.S. Grey. Beau Fortier starred in most of my cringe-worthy teenage fantasies. I met him when I was a junior in high school, a time that revolved exclusively around bad hair, failed forays into flirting, and scientific inquiries into which brand of toilet paper worked best for stuffing bras. That is, until Beau moved into the small guest house just beyond my bedroom window. A 24-year-old law student at Tulane, Beau was as mysterious to me as second base (both in baseball and in the bedroom).

Kenntnisreich und detailliert verknüpft er die Linien der großen Menschheitsfragen und verfolgt die Entfaltung der wichtigsten Ideen - von den Ursprungsgefilden der abendländischen Philosophie an der schönen Küste Kleinasiens bis in die Klöster und Studierstuben, die Kirchen und Machtzentren des Spätmittelalters.

Seit einem Jahrzehnt malt er deswegen an dem Porträt einer Frau, niemand hat sein Werk zu Gesicht bekommen. Als Frenhofer das Bild schließlich vor zwei befreundeten Malern enthüllt, können sie ihren Augen kaum glauben... Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850), französischer Schriftsteller, gilt als einer der wichtigsten Vertreter des Realismus.

"Das Dorf lag in tiefem Schnee. Vom Schloßberg war nichts zu sehn, Nebel und Finsternis umgaben ihn, auch nicht der schwächste Lichtschein deutete das große Schloß an." - Je dringlicher der Landvermesser K. nach seiner Ankunft versucht, dort hinein zu gelangen, desto weiter entfernt er sich von seinem Ziel, bis er es schließlich ganz aus seinem Blick verliert. Was bleibt, sind die unnahbaren Beamten und ihre bedrohliche Bürokratie - und ein Roman, der bis heute nichts von seiner großartigen Rätselhaftigkeit eingebüßt hat.

"Ich möchte lieber nicht." Mit diesem Satz lehnt der Schreiber Bartleby nach und nach...

Toutes ces belles choses jadis ensevelies sous la tristesse, cachées dans les ténèbres du désespoir ou anesthésiées par la douleur d'une blessure qu'on dit mortelle, ils les ont redécouvertes.
