Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschurfungen / Risse / Knicke. Vienna 1770--Baron Wolfgang von Kempelen unveils a strange and amazing invention, the Mechanical Turk, a sensational and unbeatable chess-playing automaton. But what the Habsburg court hails as the greatest innovation of the century is really nothing more than a brilliant illusion. The chess machine is secretly operated from inside by the Italian dwarf Tibor, a God-fearing social outcast whose chess-playing abilities and diminutive size make him the perfect accomplice in this grand hoax. Von Kempelen and his helpers tour his remarkable invention all around Europe to amaze and entertain the public, but despite many valiant attempts and close calls, no one is able to beat the extraordinary chess machine. The crowds all across Europe adore the Turk, and the success of Baron von Kempelen seems assured. But when a beautiful and seductive countess dies under mysterious circumstances in the presence of the automaton, the Mechanical Turk falls under a cloud of suspicion, and the machine and his inventor become the target of espionage, persecution, and aristocratic intrigue.

Condition: Como nuevo. : Rouzanne hereda una impresionante casa señorial art nouveau, un palacete de la belle époque en una de las calles residenciales más prestigiosas de Amberes. No tiene ni idea de quién es el testador ni por qué la hereda a ella. Sin embargo, antes de que se produzca la transmisión de las escrituras de propiedad, debe pasar 82 noches en ella, por orden del notario de servicio, para demostrar que también es digna de esa herencia. Durante su estancia, recibe varias pistas que deberían aclarar quién es ese testador y por qué fue elegida ella, pero estas pistas traen aún más incertidumbre. Varios invitados no anunciados, llamados 'pasantes', le dificultan cada vez más pasar las noches. La casa cambia a Rouzanne y un hambre sexual desconocida absorbe por completo su pensamiento racional. Los sueños la arrastran a un mundo de fantasía, haciéndole dar la espalda al mundo sensorial. Una investigación que finalmente comienza ella misma la lleva a una terrible verdad.

Hardback. Condition: New. Between the sixth and twentieth centuries, the civil service examinations created and maintained political coherence across the Chinese polity. Preparation for the examinations transformed the lives of literate elites by defining educational standards and disseminating a language that determined elite status. However, as participation in the examinations became central to that status, an intense competition to determine the educational curriculum and the subject matter of the examinations erupted between intellectual and political rivals. The principal goal of this book is to explain the restructuring of the examination field during a critical point in its history, the Southern Song dynasty (1127-1279), which witnessed the increasing domination of the examinations by the Neo-Confucian Learning of the Way movement.By analyzing textbooks, examination questions and essays, and official and private commentary, Hilde De Weerdt examines how occupational, political, and intellectual groups shaped curricular standards and examination criteria and how examination standards in turn shaped political and intellectual agendas. These questions reframe the debate about the civil service examinations and their place in the imperial order.
