Spurred by a lifelong fascination with the great emperor, French novelist Honoré de Balzac set himself the painstaking task of collecting a selection of Napoleon’s aphorisms from his public speeches and the gazettes of the time.Arranged into four themes (covering social life, the military arts, the exercise of power and the teachings of experience and misfortune), Napoleon’s pithy pills of wisdom –often Machiavellian, cynical, dry and sometimes cruel– offer a unique insight into the mind of a man who prided himself on preferring action over thought and the sword over the pen, and conjure up one of the most eminent and influential historical figures of all time.''

Living overseas but writing, always, about his native city, Joyce made Dublin unforgettable. The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by. In every sense an international figure, Joyce was faithful to his own country by seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety in Irish literature.

Santa Cecilia o el poder de la música vio la luz en el Berliner Abendblätter apenas un año antes de la muerte de Kleist en 1811, como regalo para la hija de un amigo. Esta leyenda, que resonará con fuerza en relatos posteriores de Bécquer como El Miserere o Maese Pedro el organista, supone un hito de la narrativa breve del romanticismo alemán. El sustrato popular de lo legendario, la predilección por el tema medieval germánico y, sobre todo, la celebración de la música como lenguaje del misterio y mediación del entusiasmo, convierten este texto en un relato imprescindible. Tras la publicación de los cuentos de Conrad y Poe, Alpha Decay añade a su colección una nueva joya de la literatura clásica, traducida por primera vez al castellano, y lo hace con un autor cuya obra encandiló a los mismísimos Hermanos Grimm, padres del folklore literario alemán. Un relato sublime, cumbre de la narrativa alemana, sobre el poder arrebatador de la música.
