Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Good. Robert Cuevas (Cover Art) (illustrator). 2nd Printing: July 1985. 322 pp. Solidly and well bound copy with moderate to extensive overall wear and use. Copy with clean text on crisp pages. Slighly skewed spine. Synopsis: Thousands of books, articles etc have been released on Nazis but still there is a passion about the subject. The Dancing Dodo entails the story of the remains of an aircraft which is discovered by some children and after this there becomes a danger of Bio Weapon. Completely hypothetical situation. Also the story is not well paced. Almost a hopeless novel. Dancing Dodo is set in the late 70's when many WWII vets were still young enough to be up to no good. This is a rather typical story of a Nazi plot that went wrong during the war. When an American plane is found crashed in a field in England, the Americans and Brits are called in for a joint investigation. But things start to go wrong, with people getting sick from a mysterious disease and the pricipal investigator being attached by mouldering corpses.The novel includes a romantic interlude for the hero and the classic climax at a deserted country manor house. While the answer isn't entirely obvious halfway through, the book isn't particularly suspenseful or well paced.

Rústica. Condition: New. El próximo año 2020 se celebrará el centenario de la publicación de la tesis doctoral de Walter Benjamin El concepto de crítica de arte en el Romanticismo alemán. En esta obra temprana, ya se encuentran numerosos motivos fundamentales de la pensada de Benjamin, que serán determinantes para el desarrollo posterior de su obra y, a la vez, objeto de un permanente proceso de revisión y transformación. La reflexión alrededor del concepto de crítica constituye probablemente el ejemplo más notable de la pervivencia de un tema que ocupa a Benjamin desde los inicios de su trayectoria intelectual, puesto que en él no solo se articulan los presupuestos fundamentales de su epistemología, sino también los rasgos determinantes de un pensamiento sobre el arte posterior a las estéticas clásicas.Los trabajos que se presentan en este volumen proceden de autores que comparten intereses comunes, tanto en el ámbito de la investigación alrededor de la filosofía clásica alemana como en el de los estudios sobre el pensamiento de Benjamin, y pretenden, desde perspectivas diferentes, contribuir a la comprensión de la tesis doctoral de Benjamin, una obra el carácter inaugural nos parece incuestionable hoy en día. Con los trabajos aquí reunidos, sale a la luz el segundo volumen de la colección ĞConstelacionesğ, una iniciativa de la Cátedra Walter Benjamin, Memoria y Exilio, que, junto con la publicación de los ensayos ganadores del premio Internacional Memorial Walter Benjamin convocado por la misma Cátedra, tiene como objetivo primordial ofrecer a los investigadores un órgano de difusión porque puedan dar a conocer los resultados de sus estudios, o bien sobre la obra de Benjamin, o bien sobre su recepción posterior.

(B&W photographs) Posthumously-published autobiography of the African-American actress-singer, who died in 1965 at the age of 42 from an accidental overdose of an antidepressant, following a career downturn that was further complicated by financial troubles and a nervous breakdown. According to Conrad's introduction, Dandridge "wanted to tell of her friendships and romances that crossed the color line [but] her friends attacked her in full force, telling her that her autobiography was a disgrace and should be kept quiet." Following her death, he prepared the book for publication, working from tape recordings she had made.
