The Copenhagen Papers: An Intrigue

Michael Frayn


The Copenhagen Papers: An Intrigue Michael Frayn Book Description One day, during the British run of Copenhagen , winner of the Tony Award for best play in 1999, Frayn was presented with a curious package from a London housewife that contained a few faded pages of barely legible German. Thesepages, apparently found concealed beneath some floorboards, seemed to cast a remarkable new light on the mystery at the heart of the play. While Frayn began to lose all sense of certainty, actor David Burke, who played Niels Bohr in the London productionand had some experience with documents of this sort, followed the action with particularly close interest. After the riddle was cracked and the fog had cleared, Frayn and Burke sat down together to ponder the winding trail of the Copenhagen papers. By turns comic and profound, The Copenhagen Papers explores the conundrum at the heart of all Michael Frayn’s work--human fallibility and the eternal difficulty of knowing why we do what we do. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book Description One day, during the British run of Copenhagen , winner of the Tony Award for best play in 1999, Frayn was presented with a curious package from a London housewife that contained a few faded pages of barely legible German.

Our Fathers' Godsaga: Retold for the Young

Reaves P. William


Our Fathers' Godsaga: Retold for the Young Reaves P. William Book DescriptionAn epic introduction to Norse mythology for students of all ages. Based on the research of the 19th century Swedish poet and scholar, Viktor Rydberg, Our FathersA? Godsaga retells the mythology of Northern Europe in chronological order from Creation to RagnarA¶k. These are tales told by Vikings, epic tales of gods and giants, elves and dwarves, and of how their interaction and wars affect the first generations of human beings in the North. Based on a comprehensive examination of the source material, including the Icelandic Eddas and Sagas, this is likely the way Germanic mythology looked at the end of the heathen era. Many will recognize themes found here in J.R.R. TolkienA?s Silmarillion , particularly the tale of the elf-smith VA¶lund and his quest for revenge against the Aesir, first detailed by Rydberg in his comprehensive Investigations into Germanic Mythology , 1886.
