Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Originally titled 'Treatise on Poisons and Protection Against Lethal Drugs', this is an unpublished work in Spanish by the great medieval philosopher and physician Maimonides, prefaced by the teacher and philologist Darío Fernández Ruiz. This is the first complete translation into Spanish o…f one of the most unique medical texts of the 12th century, in which Maimonides -- Saladin's physician -- combines science, ethics, and philosophy in a practical, home-based compendium on remedies against poisons. A classic in the history of medicine and medieval rationalist thought, recovered in a clear, rigorous, and accessible edition. This first complete version in Spanish collates Arabic, Hebrew, and Latin sources in a manner that is both readable and rigorous, with explanatory notes and historical contextualization. This treatise combines medical knowledge, ethical reflection, and philosophical wisdom and represents a first-rate rescue of an essential piece of medieval Sephardic and Arabic intellectual heritage.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Unpublished essays in Spanish by a master of world literature on how to be a writer and practical advice for new authors. Jack London used the press as a space for reflection on literature itself. Articles such as Getting Into Print, Phenomena of Literary Evolution, and Eight Great Factors…of Literary Success are short poetics of the craft. In them, London addresses young writers, shares his experience in the publishing market, and defends literature connected to social reality. These reflections, now almost forgotten, are fundamental to understanding how London conceived his dual identity: journalist and storyteller, writer and worker of the word. This annotated edition aims to place each text in its original context, offer keys to reading it, and make material that until now remained scattered in newspaper archives available to the Spanish-speaking public. Jack London's voice, with its passionate search for adventure and commitment, resonates here with renewed force. The work continues the series already begun by this publisher on this author with articles on socialism (What is Socialism ).

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - SUSTAINED FATIGUE, FRAGMENTED SLEEP, PERSISTENT INFLAMMATION. THE FOOTPRINT OF A BODY TRAPPED IN A CHRONIC STATE OF SURVIVAL. It is not just a matter of a hormone imbalance or adverse genetics. It is biology read out of context, doing what it can to adapt to the lives we lead. Dr. Haylen Ma…rín starts from a little-explored idea: the body has reasons for doing what it does. That's why she takes a different approach: instead of asking what's wrong with the body, she asks what it's trying to sustain. The nervous system, hormones, and immunity don't work in isolation; they influence each other and adjust to the conditions in which we live. When stress becomes chronic and alertness becomes a way of life, balance is disrupted, even if the tests show nothing out of the ordinary. From psychoneuroimmunology and clinical practice, an uncomfortable idea is proposed: many symptoms are not failures, but biological habits. Learned states become baseline and are inscribed in physiology. The text revolves around this central thesis: the body follows a certain process, even when it seems to fail. Discovering this process is what we all need to learn to take care of ourselves. Some books confirm what we already think. Not this one. Here, certainties are questioned, common narratives are challenged, and simplistic explanations are refuted. It does not seek to console or reassure, but to provide insight. These pages force us to step out of the position of victim -- of the body, of biology, of circumstances -- and take charge of our own health. Because only then can a real recovery of well-being begin.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Stop for a moment. Remove from the equation what you do, what you have, and the story you tell yourself about yourself. See what remains when you no longer hold on to roles, achievements, or expectations. What appears is not a void, but a silent question: whether your life has meaning or wh…ether it simply moves forward, driven by inertia. Observe where that question comes from. Beyond the body you care for, the mind that thinks, and the emotions that run through you, there is something in you that seeks coherence, depth, and guidance. It is not satisfied with success, recognition, or accumulation. When ignored, emptiness appears; when confused, dissatisfaction arises; when attended to, balance begins. It is not religion or belief. It arises from a deeper and unknown place: the spiritual dimension, the most forgotten in a society focused on doing, having, and appearing. Its absence helps to explain much of the contemporary malaise and the proliferation of substitutes that promise fulfillment without offering it. These pages help to recognize that dimension, to understand why it has been relegated, and to reconnect with inner life from a clear and non-dogmatic perspective. The age of spirituality proposes another way of looking at life, of ordering priorities, and of relating to one's own existence. In this gesture, transcendence ceases to be an abstraction and begins to fill everyday experience. The real global crisis is not one of systems, but of meaning. This book points to the place where human life regains its meaning.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Tradition of Freedom is one of the most illuminating books by Dalmacio Negro, a thinker who understood freedom not as a slogan, but as a way of being in the world. In these pages, the reader discovers that political freedom is born of something that predates any constitution or system:…a living fabric of customs, consciousness, and self-government that for centuries sustained free societies. FREEDOM WILT WHEN WE FORGET WHERE IT COMES FROM Dalmacio Negro examines the pre-political substrate from which classical liberalism emerged: not as a doctrine, but as a prudent attitude toward power and a demanding one toward personal responsibility. In the face of modern simplifications, he shows how freedom only exists where judgment remains alive. The book analyzes the concentration of power, the advance of ideologies, and the emergence of the protective state, a tutelary power that offers security and well-being in exchange for guiding conscience. This new edition appears after the death of Dalmacio Negro (1931-2024), one of the most original and demanding voices in contemporary Spanish political thought. Reading it is especially necessary today in a context marked by the expansion of forms of tutelary power, the fragility of personal judgment, and the growing delegation of responsibility. Far from offering easy solutions or ideological recipes, it invites the reader to recover a realistic understanding of freedom, rooted in historical tradition, in the limits of power, and in the dignity of human judgment.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Prepare yourself, dear reader, to embark on the most exciting intellectual adventure you have ever undertaken, one that is entertaining at times, I promise, and, above all, brief. Do you think that philosophy is the preserve of bearded gentlemen in dusty chambers, debating things so etherea…l that even the air becomes metaphysical Not at all. Because in the following pages, we are going to unravel the history of thought as if it were a Netflix series, full of unexpected twists and fascinating characters. Since the dawn of human consciousness, when our ancestors stopped worrying only about hunting mammoths and began to wonder about the meaning of life, philosophy has been the soundtrack of our existence. It has not always been a harmonious melody. It has often sounded like a cacophony of contradictory ideas, heated debates, and geniuses determined to contradict their neighbors. In this book, we will journey through the key stages of this intellectual journey without you having to become an expert in ancient Greek or 19th-century German. We will skip the footnotes that resemble mazes and the Latin quotations that only philosophers themselves understand. Our mission is clear: to offer you a concise and enjoyable map of the ideas that have shaped our understanding of the world, from the most essential questions to the most far-fetched musings. An invitation to a journey: a tour of the crucial moments when human thought took unexpected turns, opened new horizons, or consolidated revolutionary perspectives. It is also a map to guide you through the vast territory we call philosophy, offering reference points for understanding how we came to think as we do today.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - From the Arab Spring to the Gaza crisis, the Middle East is going through one of the most turbulent periods in its recent history. The devastating consequences of the war in Gaza have once again shaken a region that never managed to stabilize after the Arab Spring. What in 2011 seemed to he…rald a new beginning led to civil wars, coups d'état, and even more iron-fisted autocracies, fueled by rivalry between regional and global powers. The gradual withdrawal of the United States -- for decades the dominant external actor -- left behind a vacuum that is now being contested by Russia, China, the European Union, and various local powers. In this essential analysis, Christopher Phillips unravels the geopolitical dynamics of the contemporary Middle East through ten flashpoints, from Syria and Yemen to Palestine, Iraq, and the Gulf. Taking a pluralistic view, the author shows how internal tensions are intertwined with the ambitions of external actors and argues that US overextension after the Cold War, followed by its withdrawal in the 2010s, has contributed decisively to the destabilization of the region. The result is a landscape marred by wars of unprecedented violence, the proliferation of non-state actors, and open competition for power in an increasingly 'post-American' Middle East. An essential book for understanding what forces are shaping the region's future. and why that future remains so uncertain. 'Phillips writes with precision and a critical eye, covering an enormous amount of ground.' James Barr, Financial Times 'Battleground is a lucid, solidly argued, and accessible study of a region once again in crisis.' Justin Marozzi, Sunday Times 'Christopher Phillips offers a lucid and highly entertaining account of a region that, tragically, continues to destroy itself. with a little help from its friends.' Justin Marozzi, The Spectator.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Did you know that an Egyptian prince settled with his harem in La Pedrera Or that Gaudí designed an armchair for Queen María Cristina, planned a monumental building for Tangier, and built a refuge for mining engineers that still stands in the Pyrenees Although he is revered worldwide for hi…s masterpiece, the unfinished Sagrada Familia, what we know of Antoni Gaudí represents only a fraction of his true creative universe.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Described throughout human history as 'submissive,' 'fragile,' 'emotionally unstable,' and located in the 'universe of feelings' by thinkers such as Aristotle, Rousseau, Nietzsche, and Schopenhauer, women have been cloistered in the role of mother and wife under guardianship. Powerful queen…s and regents such as Victoria of England, Elizabeth II, Maria Christina, and Eugenia de Montijo were forced to make decisions while, like other women of their time, their access to knowledge was controlled. The more daring among them had to disguise themselves as men or use male pseudonyms in order to be recognized for their creations in a world that was closed to them. From Baron de Coubertin's rejection of women's participation in the Olympics, to the echo of bourgeois suffragettes in Restoration Spain, through the women of the interwar period and the Lyceum Club Femenino, to their leading role in the Generation of '27 and the Second Republic, their complex existence in the postwar period, and their frustrations during the Transition. Insumisas is the story of the struggle of those who, throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, rebelled against established roles and fought for access to education, suffrage, cultural creation, science, politics, and sports.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - What if the origin of civilization were not where we have always been told For centuries, official history has placed the birth of great cultures in the East and the eastern Mediterranean. However, on the shores of the Atlantic, between Africa and Spain, there are signs of a much older, mor…e complex, and deliberately forgotten past. In Spania, el secreto de las orcas (Spania, the secret of the orcas), Fernando López-Mirones proposes a radically new interpretation of the distant past, based on biology, archaeology, mythology, genetics, and linguistics. Through in-depth and rigorous research carried out over more than thirty years, the author travels through the Strait of Gibraltar, North Africa, and the Atlantic coast to trace the vestiges of a civilization that predates those we know, whose legacy has been fragmented, renamed, and hidden by later cultures. The key he proposes lies in the most intelligent animal in the oceans. What if the origin of civilization were linked to an ancient alliance between humans, killer whales, and bluefin tuna Place names, symbols, classical tales, human migrations, great lost libraries, and ancient marine cults are intertwined in a narrative that questions the very foundations of traditional historiography. Nothing is accidental: not the names, not the myths, not the silences. This book does not seek to offer easy answers, but rather to invite the reader to look at the map, the sea, and history with new eyes. Because perhaps the greatest secret of the past is not what was lost. but what we were never told.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Everything they wanted to erase. Everything that happened and continues to weigh on Spain. The state crime against José Calvo Sotelo was not an isolated episode: it was proof that the PSOE and the Popular Front were willing to destroy the nation to retain power.' This book is a journey int…o the heart of one of the darkest pages of our history: the assassination, on July 13, 1936, of the most brilliant and honest leader of the patriotic opposition to the Second Republic. Javier García Isac reconstructs, with names, dates, and documentary evidence, the political conspiracy that culminated in his death and the complicit silence that surrounded it for decades. From his exile and return to Spain, his confrontation with the wealthy right and the revolutionary left, to his assassination at the hands of agents of the state under socialist control, this work shows how Calvo Sotelo's murder not only ended an era, but also paved the way for the War of 1936. PATRIOTISM, MORAL AUTHORITY, AND TRUTH: THE LIVING LEGACY OF CALVO SOTELO Ninety years later, his figure continues to be uncomfortable. The regime of '78 and the PSOE have tried to erase him from the national memory because his life and thinking represent everything they fear: patriotism, moral authority, national unity, and social justice without Marxism. This book is not an exercise in nostalgia, but a demand for historical truth. In the face of self-serving revisionism and political manipulation of memory, the figure of José Calvo Sotelo emerges as a symbol of dignity, consistency, and sacrifice. His voice, silenced by bullets, continues to remind us that Spain is not destroyed from outside, but from internal betrayal. There is no room here for equidistance or oblivion. Only the truth has a place here.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The customer experience, as we have practiced it for years, is a tired approach. After decades of obsession with metrics, surveys, and customer journeys, too many organizations still fail to achieve the essential: creating experiences that matter and building strong, meaningful relationship…s with customers and employees. Most worryingly, they continue to invest time, money, and resources in approaches that optimize processes. but do not generate real or sustainable value. In HUMANX: The End of CX, Bill Price and David Arconada, two global experts in customer experience, offer a reflection that is as uncomfortable as it is necessary: CX has not failed due to a lack of tools or technology, but because it has strayed from its human essence. They put forward a provocative and powerful idea: the emergence of technologies such as artificial intelligence is not a threat to the experience, but rather the greatest opportunity to put humanity back at the center of business strategy. To achieve this, it is not enough to optimize the existing CX model. It needs to be thoroughly rethought. CX needs to regain its meaning and, above all, its soul. Through the Human X management model, the authors present a clear, rigorous, and applicable roadmap for redesigning purpose, leadership, culture, processes, and experiences from a truly human perspective. With practical tools, interviews with international experts, global studies, and real-life cases, HUMANX shows how to anticipate needs, eliminate unnecessary friction, and design experiences that truly connect and generate business impact. An essential work for leaders who understand that the future of experience is not about measuring more, but about connecting better. Because when experience has soul, business finds meaning.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Basketball has changed. Data is no longer an external tool, but a structural part of the game: a new layer of interpretation that coexists with intuition, experience, and reading the game. Its true value lies not in the numbers, but in the ability to interpret them within a real, human, and… competitive context. This is not a mathematics book or a technical manual. It is a narrative essay on how decisions are made in professional basketball when the margin for error is minimal and the pressure is maximum. Through real stories, the author explores the tensions between tradition and innovation and debunks commonplaces about efficiency, talent, or experience, showing how data does not replace the essence of the game: it expands it, questions it, and projects it toward what is to come. Data can tell stories, inspire decisions, and change the way we understand sport. After more than twenty projects in professional basketball, the author offers an inside look at how data has redefined team building, opened up new ways of interpreting performance, and transformed the way teams compete. It is a journey that shows how projects with fewer resources can challenge more powerful structures when they better understand the game they are playing. A book for those who want to better understand basketball and the decisions that drive it. Basketball has not lost its soul. It has learned to see itself better.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Since the Middle Ages, Averroes has been considered the commentator on Aristotle, but his figure transcends that exegetical work. A multifaceted scholar, he excelled in multiple fields of knowledge--philosophy, medicine, natural sciences, astronomy, and Islamic law--and his vast knowledge a…nd attempt to harmonize philosophical reason with religious revelation made him one of the most influential intellectuals of Andalusian and universal thought. Despite the relevance of his work, he was the subject of suspicion and controversy in both the Islamic and Christian worlds. In 13th-century Europe, once his Commentaries on Aristotle began to be read, he was reviled by large sectors of the scholastic community, who considered him a threat to religious orthodoxy. However, some thinkers, such as Siger of Brabant and Thomas Aquinas, recognized the rigor and depth of his philosophical interpretation. It was not until the 19th century that his thinking began to be reevaluated, with a process of recovery and study of his writings. Since then, interest in his work has continued to grow, and today there are countless works, critical editions, and scientific studies dedicated to unraveling the complexity of his legacy. Averroes is not only a fundamental link in medieval philosophical rationalism and one of its most fertile sources, but his defense of reason has led him to be considered one of the 'intellectual fathers of Europe.'.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Mafia is one of the most feared and fascinating criminal organizations in the world, but its real history is much more surprising than any fiction. From the rural brotherhoods that emerged in 19th-century Sicily to the criminal networks that operate in Europe and America today, includin…g the Neapolitan Camorra, the Calabrian 'Ndrangheta, and the alliances they forged with politics, economics, and society, this book covers little-known episodes, unexpected characters, and truths that rarely appear in official manuals. With rigor and an informative tone, Giorgio Ballario debunks myths, sheds light on the darkest areas, and shows how the mafia phenomenon has evolved, fragmented, mutated into multiple forms, and influenced contemporary history much more than we imagine. An essential read to understand not only how the Mafia was born, but why it is still present -- and so powerful -- in the 21st century.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Following the publication of Averroes' response in his Tahâfut al-Tahâfut (The Refutation of the Refutation), this edition presents the work that gave rise to that famous debate: the Tahâfut al-Falâsifa (The Refutation of the Philosophers), composed by Abû Hâmid al-Ghazâlî, known as Algacel…. This is the first time that a complete and annotated translation of this text, which is crucial to understanding medieval Islamic thought and the intellectual background of Averroes's response, has been made available in Spanish. Written at the end of the 11th century, the Tahâfut al-Falâsifa is a critical examination of the metaphysical doctrines defended by philosophers of Greek heritage, especially Avicenna and al-Fârâbî. Algacel analyzes central issues such as the creation or eternity of the world, divine attributes, knowledge of God, causality, the nature of the soul, and the resurrection of bodies. His aim is to show that philosophical speculation, when it exceeds certain limits and attempts to resolve the ultimate problems of faith on its own, incurs contradictions that affect the foundations of revealed religion. The text also serves as a warning against those who, dazzled by the logic and prestige of the ancient sages, adopt without critical examination doctrines that are foreign to the theological framework of Islam. This edition includes philological and explanatory notes that allow the reader to clearly follow this complex and methodologically rigorous treatise. The Refutation of the Philosophers is not only an essential piece of the intellectual history of Islam, but also an indispensable starting point for understanding Averroes' response. Therefore, after having already presented Averroes' reply, the reader is now offered the original work that provoked it, thus completing the great philosophical debate between the Islamic East and al-Andalus.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Why are some colors obvious to us and others almost impossible to perceive Do we all see the same thing when we look at the world Since when can a color signify power, danger, purity, or exclusion History of Color delves into these questions to explore a phenomenon that we take for granted…and yet profoundly conditions the way we perceive, think, and organize reality. Color is not just a quality of light or a simple biological fact. It is also the result of cultural processes, technical decisions, and social agreements that have varied across time and space. Perceiving a color involves complex physiological mechanisms, but also learning, language, and collective memory. Hence, colors have not always meant the same thing or been seen in the same way in all cultures. Throughout history, color has been closely linked to power, status, and the economy. It has driven trade routes, generated enormous profits, and demanded a high material and human price in its production. Certain shades were reserved for very specific contexts, and obtaining them involved technical knowledge, risks, and inequalities that are rarely visible at first glance. Juan Scaliter invites us to look at color without naivety. To understand it not as a simple adornment of the world, but as a construction laden with history and consequences. Because color is not only seen: it influences what we perceive, what we value, and how we make sense of our surroundings.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - The Spanish Footprint in Flanders invites us to rediscover one of the most forgotten--and yet most decisive--epics in the history of Spain and Europe: the presence of the Spanish Monarchy in the former Netherlands. Javier Rubio reconstructs, with documentary rigor and narrative flair, the p…olitical, cultural, religious, and military role played by the Spanish in a land where much of the destiny of modern Europe was decided. IN THE FIELDS OF FLANDERS, SPAIN NOT ONLY FOUGHT: IT LEFT A DEEP MARK OF FAITH, ART, AND CIVILIZATION. Through unpublished letters, diplomatic testimonies, and chronicles of the time, the author rescues the human dimension of historical figures such as Philip II, the Duke of Alba, and William of Orange, freeing them from the prejudices inherited from centuries of propaganda and black legend. The work sheds light on the complex network of interests that linked--and pitted against each other--Brussels, Madrid, Rome, and Vienna, as well as the political and cultural work carried out by Spain in a territory that still bears that mark in its architecture, art, language, and historical memory. Rubio takes us back to a time when faith, honor, and loyalty moved armies, and when the Spanish Tercios--a symbol of discipline and cohesion--were also transmitters of a cultural and moral model that helped forge Europe. With a contemporary perspective, the author does not seek to judge the past, but rather to understand it: what led Spain to sustain that immense effort for decades and what legacy that presence left in the heart of the continent. A rigorous and narrative analysis of the Spanish presence in Flanders and its decisive role in shaping modern Europe.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Holy Week has always been a great story that Seville tells itself every year, like someone opening a book that never quite ends. And, truth be told, we have rarely taken the time to look calmly at how literature has shaped that story, how it has sustained it and, moreover, how it has reinve…nted it century after century. In La Semana Santa literaria (Literary Holy Week), Eugenio J. Vega Geán guides us through verses, chronicles, romances, novels, and proclamations that have shaped the cultural memory of the city's Fiesta Mayor. There are moments when we can almost see an ancient brotherhood passing between the lines, others when we hear the echo of those who wrote to save what they experienced from oblivion. This book opens doors to authors who imagined the Passion, to fascinated travelers, to romantics, modernists, and contemporary voices that continue to narrate what Seville feels. If you want to understand Holy Week from within--from its most intimate emotion and from the tradition that sustains it--this book is, there is no other word for it, a luminous key. An invitation to look, to read. and to let the word also make its mark.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'As Robert Millar, I became the first Briton to win the Tour de France mountain classification. Back then, my name was Robert Millar. Now I'm Pippa York.' Winner of the 2025 William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award for the best sports book of the year in the United Kingdom. In the summer…of 2020, renowned sports journalist David Walsh invited Pippa York to follow the Tour de France in his car. What began as journalistic coverage turned into a nostalgic journey through the world's most demanding race. For Walsh, it represented an opportunity to finally unravel the mystery of the most enigmatic and reserved cyclist in the peloton. For Pippa York, it was a chance to reconnect with the race she had competed in eleven times under the name Robert Millar. The Breakaway is the captivating result of those thousands of miles shared. Through intimate conversations in the car and iconic landscapes, the book intertwines the current events of the Tour with the extraordinary life of its protagonist: from his tough beginnings in working-class Glasgow to his assault on the Alpine and Pyrenean peaks, where he shone and won the Tour's mountain classification. But this story goes far beyond cycling. With poignant candor, Pippa York reflects on the psychological demands of the elite, the shadows of doping, and, above all, her gender transition beyond the age of 40. Funny, profound, and revealing, The Breakaway is both a love letter to the Tour de France and the unforgettable testimony of someone who had to escape her own body to find herself.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Did you know that Renaissance chronicles attributed the founding of Spain to Tubal, Noah's grandson That Osiris himself, the divine king of Egypt, fought a colossal war here against the giant Geryon Or that Hercules did not fight a three-headed Iberian monster, but three powerful monarch br…others called the Geryons Lominios Have you ever imagined Tartessos as the scene of glorious battles between gods and titans Were the Sicanians of Sicily an Iberian people expelled from the Segre River We are fascinated by the legendary infinity of Greece and Rome, world-famous, but the complex and unique mythology in which Hispania has its roots has unfortunately been banished to oblivion. What became of the pioneering chroniclers who, blending reality and fiction, sought to reveal the origins of Spain's true identity To what extent do the latest archaeological findings force us to rescue texts that were believed to be outdated A captivating universe of immortal deities, ancient languages, mysterious civilizations, and portentous creatures comes to life before us, with the Peninsula as the setting, when we look beyond the simplistic paradigm currently in force.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Since the dawn of civilization, humanity has confronted invisible forces, both beneficial and malevolent, that have shaped its beliefs and understanding of the cosmos. Demonology and the History of the Devil undertakes an ambitious archaeological exploration of evil spirits, revealing how p…rimitive deities were gradually degraded into demons and devils, central characters in the mythology and folklore of various cultures. This study -- one of the most comprehensive and scholarly works written on the conception of Evil in our civilization -- tracks the evolution of the dualism between Light and Darkness, from the earliest personifications of natural phenomena to the complex figure of the Devil. It examines the various manifestations of evil: from the demons of hunger, heat, or disease, to fearsome serpents and dragons, and finally, the theological Adversary. The work analyzes the ethnic, climatic, and political circumstances that shaped these conceptions, illustrating how human fear and need materialized into a vast progeny of supernatural beings. Moncure Daniel Conway unravels the intricate web of superstitions, revealing the origins and persistence of demonic beliefs. His comparative analysis of mythologies, from the Rig-Veda to the Koran, illuminates the surprising continuity of certain ideas and the adaptability of archetypes of evil. The result is a work that not only documents a vast tradition, but also invites reflection on the profound interaction between the human mind, nature, and the construction of morality.

Buch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'You would give me inexplicable joy with a detailed description of your spiritual journey and also your outer life!' With these words, the young King Ludwig II of Bavaria asked Richard Wagner for the autobiography that would become one of the most unique and problematic documents of the 19th centu…ry. For fifteen years, between 1865 and 1880, Cosima von Bülow took dictation of the story of a life that spanned a Europe of revolutions, nationalism, and great aesthetic transformations: from Goethe's Germany to the unification of the Reich, from provincial theaters to the founding of Bayreuth. Wagner constructs a monumental self-portrait here, with the same passionate and profound power he poured into his operas, endowed with a majestic narrative rhythm that places it among the great autobiographies and masterpieces of world literature. This edition offers a complete and direct translation from German into Spanish, meticulously carried out by Rafael Antúnez, poet and doctor at the University of Córdoba. In contrast to the versions historically censored by the Wagner family--which for decades concealed indiscretions, softened judgments, and deleted compromising passages--we offer the complete text as it was dictated, restored from the original manuscript preserved in the Richard Wagner Archive in Bayreuth. The Bavarian State Library has defined it as 'the most accurate biographical source on the composer, and practically the only reliable one for his childhood.' An essential book for understanding not only the great genius that was Wagner, with his lights and shadows, but also our era and our present.
