A graphic novel with illustrated text that traces, in detail, the history of a literary genre, from the 1800s to present day. For the first time in illustrated form, this comprehensive history of science fiction traces its origins and, in fascinating detail, charts its history from its beginnings as a 'schlock' genre to its respected status today. Who was the first author to write a science fiction story? How did American science fiction begin? What SF novel is the world's best-seller? What were the 'pulps,' and how did they predict with uncanny accuracy the 21st Century world around us? These are just some of the questions answered in chapters dedicated to the founding mothers and fathers of the genre and the creations to which they gave birth. More than just a simple history lesson, THE HISTORY OF SCIENCE FICTION is a thoughtful and analytical reflection on the genre itself. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

A teenager desperate to pass his Biology final is visited in the night, Christmas Carol-style, by the spirits of some of the greatest scientists in history. Trevor suffers from an ailment common among high schoolers: apathy. He snoozes through science class, distrusts his teachers, and would rather stay up all night playing video games than studying for his upcoming science quiz. With an 'F' in Biology looming ominously in Trevor's near future unless he finds motivation, Trevor's parents take away his video games for a week in an effort to make him buckle down and study. When he opens up his book, however, an epic adventure begins, and the greatest scientists in history become his guides-literally! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

ZÛRN, UNICA [zyrn ynika]. f. n. - b. 1916; in Berlin-Grunewald - 1. Born to a middleclass family, a young woman in Hiter's Germany. 2. Worked at Universum Film AG as a creator and screenwriter of commercial. - 3. Artist who belong to the Surrealist movement; was Hans Bellmer's partner. - 4. Schizophrenic. 5. Crazy woman. -Antonym. Body, organism. A childhood devastated by rape, the absence of an idealized father, a strict moral mother, and a passion for art shaped Unica Zürn. One of the only prominent female figures of the Surrealist movement, Zürn was tormented by inner demons that she shared through her automatic drawings and anagram poems. She longed for and rejected intimacy at once, seeking her so-called Man of Jasmine, an idealized male figure, throughout her life while living as the partner of Hans Bellmer, noted artist and photographer. As her schizophrenia began to overtake her, she longed to make the woman she once was disappear into the nameless pronoun She. In they eyes of Unica Zürn, madness is the only way to be in the world.

Through an important episode in the life of Ludwig van Beethoven, Régis Penet paints the portrait of a humanist genius who refused to submit to the powerful. 'Tell the French that there is still one man in Austria who is not subject to them, and that he does not bear any title!' 1806. The great Napoleonic conquests are underway and Austria is now occupied by French troops. Ludwig van Beethoven, by now a towering figure in Austrian culture, resides in the palace of Prince Alois von Lichnowsky, his friend and patron. One fateful night, von Lichnowsky demands Beethoven play for his guests to show 'what remains of a prince of Austria.' But Beethoven refuses. A striking portrait of the 'bear of the salons': a genius sure of his talent, indomitable, and devoted to freedom. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
