A clear and eloquent leading translation of the Roman emperor’s reflections of human life and death, timeless Stoic philosophy that inspires countless others including The Daily Stoic author Ryan Holiday to use philosophy as a tool for self-improvement and resilience to live a better lifeWritten in Greek by an intellectual Roman emperor without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a wide range of fascinating spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Spanning from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation, they cover such diverse topics as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods and the values of leadership. But while the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation, in developing his beliefs Marcus also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a series of wise and practical aphorisms that have been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers and ordinary readers for almost two thousand years.To provide a full understanding of Aurelius's seminal work, this edition includes explanatory notes, a general index, an index of quotations, an index of names, and an introduction by Diskin Clay putting the work in its biographical, historical, and literary context, a chronology of Marcus Aurelius's life and career.Penguin Classics is the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world, representing a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Escalfado, revuelto, hervido, batido en un cóctel, transformado en pintura o lanzado contra la casa de un enemigo. Como la más llamativa de las paradojas, el huevo existe en feliz suspensión entre el humilde ingrediente doméstico y la siempre poderosa fuente de vida. Es uno de los símbolos más duraderos a lo largo del tiempo: fue utilizado por los romanos para disipar los malos espíritus y modelado como auténtica joya de valor incalculable para la nobleza rusa, y ocupó un lugar destacado en la mitología egipcia. En el primer volumen de la serie de TASCHEN en colaboración con la revista de culto Gourmand, celebramos el vínculo entre la comida y el arte en una exploración visual y literaria de este ingrediente básico de la cocina. Una colección de recetas originales, desde el escalfado perfecto hasta los postres más creativos, expone las diversas tradiciones culinarias de todo el mundo. The Gourmand's Egg. A Collection of Stories and Recipes está profusamente ilustrado con obras de figuras titánicas de la historia del arte, como Salvador Dalí, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Frida Kahlo, David Hockney y Man Ray, y con trabajos exclusivos de los mejores fotógrafos. Completan el volumen textos de la chef, escritora y crítica gastronómica Ruth Reichl, y de la escritora y editora Jennifer Higgie, entre otros. En palabras de Reichl: ''En la cocina, como en casi todo lo demás, todo comienza con un huevo''.

Walt Disney soñó durante décadas con crear el mejor complejo de entretenimiento, pero no fue hasta principios de la década de 1950 cuando empezó a hacer realidad su sueño gracias a un equipo al que seleccionó personalmente. Juntos, artistas, arquitectos e ingenieros transformaron un polvoriento campo de naranjos en uno de los destinos más queridos del mundo. En la actualidad hay parques Disney en todo el mundo, desde París hasta Shanghái, pero el original en Anaheim, California, visitado hasta la fecha por más de 800 millones de personas, sigue siendo una de las atracciones turísticas más populares de Estados Unidos. Desde el día de su inauguración, el 17 de julio de 1955, Disneyland hizo historia dando vida a los cuentos de hadas. Trajo el futuro al presente y nos acercó a culturas remotas e incluso a galaxias muy lejanas. Esta historia visual se sirve de las extensas colecciones históricas de Disney, de archivos privados y de la era dorada del fotoperiodismo para proporcionar un acceso único al concepto, desarrollo, lanzamiento y disfrute de este oasis de diversión y fantasía bañado por el sol. Disneyland incluye documentación sobre las primeras inspiraciones e ideas de Walt para el parque, los extraordinarios logros en cuanto a diseño e ingeniería y todas sus áreas temáticas de Main Street U.S.A. a Tomorrowland. Se trata de un valioso tesoro compuesto por documentación original de Disney y la colaboración del galardonado escritor Chris Nichols, que aporta su extenso conocimiento sobre Disneyland y la historia del sur de California para desvelar el fascinante relato del ''lugar más feliz de la Tierra''.Copyright © 2024 Disney Enterprises, Inc.

An authoritative chronicle of the history and evolution of skateboard design from 1950 to the present day. From its starting point as a simple wooden plank to the high-tech models of today, the skateboard has undergone a dramatic evolution. Skateboard explores the golden eras of skateboarding through over 100 boards that brought about turning points in the sport’s history. Across six thematic chapters, organized chronologically by decade, the book focuses on the materials, designs, and events that have defined the art, sport, and culture of skateboarding. Developed in close collaboration with Converse – a brand engrained in skateboarding culture since its inception – Skateboard is packed with information and insights about the people and events that have shaped the sport, with more than 300 illustrations spanning newly studio-shot and historical images that fully capture the skateboard’s technical, makeup and structural development across time. Each board featured in the book – from the 1963 Skee-Skate to the 1989 Mike Vallely pro model – is photographed to scale, allowing the reader to gauge the board’s individual flair and size in relation to its counterparts, and accompanied by engaging text from author, designer, and former skater Jonathan Olivares. Pro models of iconic skaters such as Laura Thornhill, Ray ‘Bones’ Rodriquez, Tony Hawk, Natas Kaupas, and Mike Vallely are also brought to life in a selection of archival action shots. Skateboard features an introduction by Paul 'Professor' Schmitt and an epilogue by legendary pro skaters Lance Mountain and Tommy Guerrero.

NAMED A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR BY TIME, NPR, THE SEATTLE TIMES, ELLE, THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION, AND OPRAH DAILY.A brilliant, action-packed reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, both harrowing and ferociously funny, told from the enslaved Jim's point of view • From the “literary icon” (Oprah Daily) and Pulitzer Prize Finalist whose novel Erasure is the basis for Cord Jefferson’s critically acclaimed film American Fiction.''If you liked Demon Copperhead, by Barbara Kingsolver, read James, by Percival Everett'' —The Washington PostWhen the enslaved Jim overhears that he is about to be sold to a man in New Orleans, separated from his wife and daughter forever, he decides to hide on nearby Jackson Island until he can formulate a plan. Meanwhile, Huck Finn has faked his own death to escape his violent father, recently returned to town. As all readers of American literature know, thus begins the dangerous and transcendent journey by raft down the Mississippi River toward the elusive and too-often-unreliable promise of the Free States and beyond.While many narrative set pieces of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn remain in place (floods and storms, stumbling across both unexpected death and unexpected treasure in the myriad stopping points along the river’s banks, encountering the scam artists posing as the Duke and Dauphin…), Jim’s agency, intelligence and compassion are shown in a radically new light.Brimming with the electrifying humor and lacerating observations that have made Everett a “literary icon” (Oprah Daily), and one of the most decorated writers of our lifetime, James is destined to be a major publishing event and a cornerstone of twenty-first century American literature.
