?nl? İngiliz yazar Charles Dickens?ın en sevilen ve okunan eserlerinden biri olan Antikacı D?kk?nı, ilk olarak 1840-1841 yıllarında bir dergide yayımlanmış, daha sonra da 1841?de kitap olarak basılmıştır. Romanda, k???k Nell ve b?y?k babasının evlerini terk etmek zorunda kalarak ?ıktıkları yolculuğun giderek bir macera h?lini alması ve başlarından ge?enler s?r?kleyici bir ?slupla dile getirilmiş. Dickens?ın, karakter yaratmaktaki başarısı burada da kendini g?stermiş, ?zellikle o yılların İngiltere?sindeki iş?ilerin durumunu son derece ger?ek?i bir şekilde resmetmiştir: Yoksulluk, ağır ?alışma şartları… Romandaki bir diğer g?ze ?arpan unsur, Dickens?ın ana karakterler kadar yan karakterlere de kusursuzca ruh ve beden yani hayat vermesidir. Bu romanı okuyanlar, en az Nell ve b?y?k babası kadar, Quilp ve karısının da zihinlerinde silinmez izler bıraktığını g?receklerdir.

When his lover hurts him, he’s willing to look elsewhere for the stability he craves – and he doesn’t have to look far, because Kara’s right there.The guys are hot, and the sex is dirty, but for Kara, caught in the middle of Zach and Ric’s emotional absurdity, it’s painfully clear their threesome just can’t last.

Edebiyat tarihimizde, ilk ger?ek?i romanımız olarak kabul edilmesiyle bir kilometre taşı teşkil eden bu eseri Recaizade Mahmut Ekrem, 1889’da yazmış; 1896’da ise “Servetif?nun” dergisinde tefrika ettirmiştir. Yazar, roman kahramanı Bihruz Bey’in şahsında Batılılaşmanın ?z?n? bırakıp yalnızca kabuğunu taklit eden kimseleri alaylı bir dille anlatır. Kahramanın alafranga g?r?nme sevdası i?inde d?şt?ğ? durumlar bir aşk hik?yesiyle beraber verilirken okuyucuyu sık?a g?l?msetse de d?nemin hazin durumunu da g?zler ?n?ne serer nitekim Recaizade Mahmut Ekrem de kendi romanı i?in şunları s?ylemiştir: İnsanlıkla ilgili olarak her g?n etrafımızda ge?en ibret verici olaylara ve ortaya ?ıkan durumlara şiir ve felsefe a?ısından bakılırsa hepsi de az ?ok hazin g?r?n?r. Bunlardan birtakımının g?zyaşıyla, diğer bir kısmının da şaşkınlık ve g?l?msemeyle karşılanmasındaki fark, olayların asıl mahiyetindeki fecaatten değil, tarafımızdan değerlendirilmeleri bakımındandır. Konusu ger?ek hayattan veya ger?eklere m?mk?n mertebe uygun olarak hayalden alınarak yazılan hik?ye ve romanlar ise insanlarla ilgili olayları ve durumları sadakatle aksettiren birer ibret aynasıdır. Bu d?ş?nceye g?re, “Muhsin Bey” hik?yesi, okuyanlar tarafından ağlanacak şeylerden g?r?lm?ş olduğu h?lde, bu “Araba Sevdası” bilakis g?l?necek h?llerden sayılsa gerektir. Fakat dikkat edilirse bu ?tekinden elbette daha ziyade hazin ve elbette daha ?ok elem vericidir.

La solidaridad, es otro valor que ha permitido la perviviencia de las comunidades locales, mediada casi siempre por la negociaci?n y los acuerdos colectivos, matizados a menudo en la pr?ctica. Finalmente, la austeridad ha sido un principio que se resume en la posibilidad de resoluci?n de problemas con pocos recursos. En este sentido, la ciudad y la arquitectura es el espacio en el que se hacen visibles ?stos valores con matices particulares en Latinoam?rica y en donde tenemos el compromiso de seguir trabajando como academia y colectividad.

This new edition, which is reproduced from a first printing of the book, is introduced by the author Martin Edwards, archivist of the Detection Club, and includes a never-before-published Preface by Agatha Christie, ‘Detective Writers in England’, in which she discusses her fellow writers in the Detection Club.Lord Comstock is a barbarous newspaper tycoon with enemies in high places. His murder in the study of his country houseposes a dilemma for the Home Secretary. In the hours before his death, Lord Comstock’s visitors included the government Chief Whip, an Archbishop, and the Assistant Commissioner for Scotland Yard. Suspicion falls upon them all and threatens the impartiality of any police investigation. Abandoning protocol, the Home Secretary invites four famous detectives to solve the case: Mrs Adela Bradley, Sir John Saumarez, Lord Peter Wimsey, and Mr Roger Sheringham. All are different, all are plausible, all are on their own – and none of them can ask a policeman…This classic whodunit adopted a completely new approach: Milward Kennedy proposed the title, John Rhode plotted the murder and provided the suspects, and four of their contemporaries were asked to lend their well-known detectives to the task of providing solutions to the crime. But there was to be another twist: the authors would swap detectives and use the characters in their sections of the book. Thus Gladys Mitchell and Helen Simpson swapped Mrs Bradley and Sir John Saumarez, and Dorothy Sayers and Anthony Berkeley swapped Lord Peter Wimsey and Roger Sheringham, enabling the authors to indulge in skilful and sly parodies of each other.The contributors to ASK A POLICEMAN are: John Rhode, Helen Simpson, Gladys Mitchell, Anthony Berkeley, Dorothy L. Sayers, Milward Kennedy with Agatha Christie and Martin Edwards.
