What is Romanticism? In this Very Short Introduction Michael Ferber answers this by considering who the romantics were and looks at what they had in common -- their ideas, beliefs, commitments, and tastes. He looks at the birth and growth of Romanticism throughout Europe and the Americas, and examines various types of Romantic literature, music, painting, religion, and philosophy. Focusing on topics, Ferber looks at the ''Sensibility'' movement, which preceded Romanticism; the rising prestige of the poet; Romanticism as a religious trend; Romantic philosophy and science; Romantic responses to the French Revolution; and the condition of women. Using examples and quotations he presents a clear insight into this very diverse movement, and offers a definition as well as a discussion of the word ''Romantic'' and where it came from. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

The Cambridge Introduction to British Romantic Poetry
AvMichael Ferber
Häftad, Engelska, 2012
377 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The best way to learn about Romantic poetry is to plunge in and read a few Romantic poems. This book guides the new reader through this experience, focusing on canonical authors - Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Keats, Blake and Shelley - whilst also including less familiar figures as well. Each chapter explains the history and development of a genre or sets out an important context for the poetry, with a wealth of practical examples. Michael Ferber emphasizes connections between poets as they responded to each other and to great literary, social and historical changes around them. A unique appendix resolves most difficulties new readers of works from this period might face: unfamiliar words, unusual word order, the subjunctive mood and meter. This enjoyable and stimulating book is an ideal introduction to some of the most powerful and pleasing poems in the English language, written in one of the greatest periods in English poetry.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This is an expansion of the first dictionary of symbols to be based on literature, rather than on 'universal' psychological archetypes or myths. It explains and illustrates the literary symbols that we frequently encounter (such as swan, rose, moon, gold) and gives thousands of cross-references and quotations. The dictionary concentrates on English literature, but its entries range widely from the Bible and classical authors to the twentieth century, taking in American and European literatures. For this third edition, Michael Ferber has included some twenty completely new entries (such as birch, childbirth, grove, mill and railroad) and has added to many of the existing entries. Its rich references make this book an essential tool not only for literary and classical scholars but also for all students of literature.
Poetry and Language
The Linguistics of Verse
AvMichael Ferber
Inbunden, Engelska, 2019
1 180 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Michael Ferber's accessible introduction to poetry's unusual uses of language tackles a wide range of subjects from a linguistic point of view. Written with the non-expert in mind, the book explores current linguistic concepts and theories and applies them to a variety of major poetic features. Equally appealing to linguists who feel that poetry has been unjustly neglected, the broad field of investigation touches on meter, rhyme (and other sound effects), onomatopoeia, syntax, meaning, metaphor, style, and translation, among others. Close study of poetic examples are mainly in English, but the book also focuses on several French, Latin, Greek, German, and Japanese examples, to show what is different and far from inevitable in English. This original, and unusually wide ranging study, delivers an engaging and often witty summary of how we define what poetry is.

Wie schütze ich mein Vermögen? Wie wappne ich mich für das Gespräch mit dem Bankberater? Welche Finanzprodukte eignen sich, und von welchen sollte ich besser die Finger lassen? Der praxiserfahrene Betriebswirtschaftler und Journalist Michael Ferber antwortet auf all diese Fragen. ''Was Sie über Geldanlage wissen sollten'' gibt einen Überblick über die in der Schweiz vertriebenen Geldanlage-Produkte, ist ein unabhängiger Leitfaden und Ratgeber für Privatinvestoren, Private-Banking-Kunden und Altersvorsorgende und unterstützt Bankkunden in ihren Gesprächen mit dem Finanzberater. Die 3., überarbeitete Auflage enthält neue Kapitel zum Sparen und Investieren in der Finanz- und Schuldenkrise sowie zu Immobilien und Edelmetallen (Gold, Silber). Ausserdem greift der Autor das Thema Vermögensschutz stärker auf und legt den Fokus auf Sachwerte als Geldanlage.

Aus der Banken- und Finanzkrise hat sich ein gigantischer Kampf entwickelt: Deflation contra Inflation. Verantwortlich dafür sind die Schuldenmacherei der Regierungen und die Politik der Notenbanken. Und die Lage spitzt sich weiter zu. Neue Kapitel zu Negativzinsen und erschwertem Bargeldverkehr.Die seit der Finanzkrise laufende heimliche Enteignung von Sparern und künftigen Rentnern ist längst nicht mehr heimlich. Die finanzielle Repression der Bürger durch die Quasi-Abschaffung des Zinses und viele andere staatliche Massnahmen hat sich herumgesprochen. Die heimliche Enteignung ist längst nicht mehr heimlich und inzwischen geprägt von Negativzinsen und durch die Diskussion über die Einschränkung oder sogar das Verbot von Bargeld. Der Währungskrieg ist in vollem Gang. Eine wichtige Rolle bei der hemmungslosen Geldproduktion spielen nicht nur die Notenbanken, sondern auch die Geschäftsbanken, die immer noch zu gross sind, um unterzugehen («too big to fail»). Sollte sich am seit Jahren herrschenden Nullszinsniveau demnächst nichts ändern, dürfte die drohende Krise von Pensionskassen und Lebensversicherungen bald zur Realität werden.

Laut dem Sorgenbarometer der Credit Suisse war die Altersvorsorge im Jahr 2018 das grösste Anliegen der Schweizerinnen und Schweizer. Die AHV und die Pensionskassen sind von verschiedenen Seiten unter Druck gekommen. Die private Vorsorge wird somit immer wichtiger.

Sie geben in verständlicher Form konkrete Tipps für Steueroptimierung, AHV, Pensionskasse, Säule 3a, private Vorsorge, Früh- und Spätpensionierung sowie Erben und Vererben. Das Buch dient privaten Sparern, Anlegern und für das Alter Vorsorgenden als umfassender und gut verständlicher Leitfaden und Ratgeber. Ausserdem soll es sie im Gespräch mit Bankern und Vorsorgeberatern unterstützen. Und Letzteren dient es bei der täglichen Arbeit als aktuelles und übersichtliches Nachschlagewerk.
