Quizá la novela más irónica y divertida de Jane Austen, maestra inigualable de la comedia de costumbres. Traducción de Isabel Oyarzábal Introducción de Marilyn Butler, profesora en las universidades de Cambridge y Oxford Publicada por primera vez en 1818, La abadía de Northanger narra la historia de Catherine Morland, una joven muy aficionada a las novelas góticas. Por ello, cuando los Tilney la invitan a pasar una temporada en su casa de campo, se pone a investigar tortuosos e imaginarios secretos de familia. Pero al comprender que la vida no es una novela, la inocente Catherine pondrá los pies en la tierra y encauzará su futuro según dictan las normas morales y sociales de la época. La presente edición incluye una detallada cronología de la autora, así como una introducción a cargo de Marilyn Butler, reputada crítica literaria, y autora del ensayo Jane Austen and the War of Ideas (1975). Hace las veces de colofón una nota biográfica escrita por el hermano de Jane Austen cinco meses después de su muerte, un documento inédito que aporta fragmentos de sus últimas cartas y deja entrever el perfil más humano de una de las autoras más apreciadas de la literatura inglesa.

Postrach Denis si nesplnil prázdninovú domácu úlohu a za trest si celý rok musí písať denník. Mrzí ho to iba chvíľku. A to presne dovtedy, kým mu v hlave neskrsne nápad, že z denníka urobí príručku pre budúce generácie postrachov.
A tak sa dozviete, čo všetko sa dá zažiť v mestečku Žúrkovo, aké fígle stvára Denis so svojím verným psom Tesákom a kamošmi Brčkom a Piškótom či ako jednoducho rozoznať padavky – napríklad Denisovho najúhlavnejšieho nepriateľa Waltera. Nie všetky lotrovstvá sa musia vydariť, ale o dobrú zábavu je vždy postarané.
Denis, postrach okolí, přes prázdniny nesplnil domácí úkol a nepsal si deník, a tak si ho za trest musí psát celý školní rok. Štve ho to ovšem jen chvíli - potom ho napadne, že z deníku udělá příručku pro budoucí generace postrachů.
A tak se dozvíte, co všechno se dá zažít v městečku Bugrburg, jaké lumpárny Denis vyvádí se svým věrným psem Raťafákem a kamarády Kudrnáčem a Lívancem nebo jak snadno rozpoznat měkkoně, jako je Denisův úhlavní nepřítel Walter. Ne každá rošťárna se musí vydařit, ale o dobrou zábavu je vždy postaráno.
Ve třetím dílu deníku známého rošťáka Denise se dočteme, že městečko Bugrburg čeká v létě náramná událost: v zábavním parku se otevře největší, nejklikatější a nejrychlejší horská dráha světa, hrůzná Blinkometa! A aby toho nebylo málo, postrach Denis by se na ní dokonce mohl svézt jako první. Má to ovšem háček - v ďábelsky záludné soutěži musí zvítězit nad úhlavním nepřítelem Walterem… a taky vyzrát na hordu dalších nepřejícných měkkoňů!
Neville erwacht eines Nachts aus einem seltsamen Traum und findet sein Zimmer total verwüstet vor. Als er die Ursache für das Chaos erforschen will und die Wohnung durchsucht, rauscht er plötzlich die Toilette hinunter - und landet in einer unbekannten Trollwelt ..
