Описание: When it first appeared in 1898, this fourth novel by celebrated Norwegian writer Knut Hamsun captured instant acclaim for its poetic, psychologically intense portrayal of love s predicament in a class-bound society. Set in a coastal village of late nineteenth-century Norway, Victoria follows two doomed lovers through their thwarted lifelong romance. Johannes, the son of a miller, finds inspiration for his writing in his passionate devotion to Victoria, an impoverished aristocrat constrained by family loyalty. Separated by class barriers and social pressure, the fated pair parts ways, only to realize too late the grave misfortune of their lost opportunity. Elegantly rendered in this brand-new translation by Sverre Lyngstad, "Victoria" s haunting lyricism and emotional depth remain as timeless as ever.

Описание:
Plato's philosophical dialogues can be seen as his creation of a new genre. Plato borrows from, as well as rejects, earlier and contemporary authors, and he is constantly in conversation with established genres, such as tragedy, comedy, lyric poetry, and rhetoric in a variety of ways. This intertextuality reinforces the relevance of material from other types of literary works, as well as a general knowledge of classical culture in Plato's time, and the political and moral environment that Plato addressed, when reading his dramatic dialogues.
The authors of Philosophy as Drama show that any interpretation of these works must include the literary and narrative dimensions of each text, as much as serious the attention given to the progression of the argument in each piece. Each dialogue is read on its own merit, and critical comparisons of several dialogues explore the differences and likenesses between them on a dramatic as well as on a logical level. This collection of essays moves debates in Plato scholarship forward when it comes to understanding both particular aspects of Plato's dialogues and the approach itself. Containing 11 chapters of close readings of individual dialogues, with 2 chapters discussing specific themes running through them, such as music and sensuousness, pleasure, perception, and images, this book displays the range and diversity within Plato's corpus.

Описание:
Lewis R. Heim was an American machinists, engineer and manufacturer who invented the Centerless Cylindrical Grinder and the Rod End Bearing known as the "Heim Joint" and was one of the pioneers of modern antifriction and spherical bearings. Lewis Heim had an inherent ability to visualize complex mechanisms and mechanical processes that resulted in the creation of novel machines, manufacturing methods, tools, and mechanical bearings. He was granted his first patent in 1896 at the age of 22 and his last patent in 1968, four years after his death at age 89. His inventions ranged from machines to manufacture hats and automate the ironing of fold collars, to precision grinders and swaging devices for bearing components plus plain and antifriction bearings used in submarines, tanks, aircraft, trucks, automobiles, and industrial machinery. With every invention Heim sought to improve product designs, increase production rates, and reduce costs to compete in highly competitive markets. Heim became internationally known as an industrialist and designer of machinery and at the time of his retirement, he was president of the Heim Company of Fairfield, Connecticut. During his long career, which spanned more than seven decades, he was granted 92 patents for his inventions, many of which are still in use today.
As the inventor of the centerless cylindrical grinder, which was critical to the growth and success of the automobile and aircraft industries, Heim saw his invention revolutionize machine shop practices around the world through the high-speed production of cylindrical metal components used in the internal combustion engine, mechanical bearings, and machines. His invention continues in wide use over 100 years after its conception.
Mr. Heim was the original inventor of the Spherical Rod End Bearing that became known as the "Heim Joint" and "Heim Rod End". With its ability to handle misalignment and relatively heavy loads in linkages transmitting motion or power, it was developed at the request of US Army Air Force and installed in most US and Allied aircraft by the end of World War II. The Rod End, and its cousin, the Spherical Plain Bearing, continues to be widely used in aircraft and machines requiring their unique abilities.
