The Story of Apollonius, King of Tyre: A Study of Its Greek Origin and an Edition of the Two Oldest Latin Recensions By G.A.A. Kortekaas 2004 | 296 Pages | ISBN: 9004139230 | PDF | 3 MB The story of Apollonius King of Tyre has rightly been called the most popular romance of the Middle Ages. From Iceland to Greece, from Spain to Russia, versions of this novel are recorded. It is the variation among the Latin versions and the numerous vernacular adaptations that make this story especially interesting. Shakespeare used and adapted it in his Pericles, Prince of Tyre. Its Description continues to fascinate us. Incest, deception, pirates, famine, sex and shipwreck form its tasty ingredients. Its links with the Greek novel, which today stands in the centre of scholarly interest, are striking. In this book the author attempts to show that the novel originated in Greece, or more precisely Asia Minor, possibly in Tarsus. A graffito from Pergamum and a coin struck in Tarsus at the time of Caracalla s visit (215 AD) support his conviction. All these aspects make the present book attractive to scholars of many different disciplines."  The Story Of The Paddle Steamer By Bernard Dumpleton 2002 | 208 Pages | ISBN: 1841508012 | PDF | 27 MB The paddle steamer holds a unique place in the history of maritime engineering. When the engineers of the early 19th century experimented with steamboats they chose the paddle wheel as the form of propulsion. Within 20 years the paddle steamers were at work on inland waters and short sea passages. The first ocean-going steamships were paddlers. They were the link between sail and screw, a role they performed for nearly 60 years. But in shallow waters they prevailed for over 150 years. Plying between the seaside piers and along the major rivers they were as familiar to holidaymakers as Punch and Judy shows and donkey rides. The deep-sea sailors called them "Butterfy boats", but they were by no means as frail as the name suggested. In the two world wars they served alongside the warships of the Royal Navy and had their finest hour during the Dunkirk evacuation. They were graceful, elegant ships, but in the jet-age too slow and uneconomical. In the 1950s they went to the breaker's yards in droves, and now there are only a few left. This text tells the story of the paddle steamers, and of the men who built, owned and sailed them.  The Stoic Wisdom of Seneca: Practical Lessons on Time, Anger, and Living Well English | 16 Jan. 2026 | ASIN: B0GHNX6KTR | 151 pages | EPUB (True) | 11.27 MB Seneca did not write to inspire. He wrote to stay steady under pressure. This book presents Seneca's most practical insights on time, anger, ambition, wealth, and character-explained clearly and without modern hype. His words are treated as tools for judgment, written for people living with responsibility and real-world pressure. Seneca was not offering philosophy as comfort or identity. He wrote while advising emperors, facing exile, managing wealth, and navigating loss. This book approaches his work in that same spirit: focused, grounded, and usable. Each chapter centers on a familiar pressure: ✔ how time slips away unnoticed ✔ how anger escalates through judgment ✔ how ambition reshapes identity ✔ how possessions test calm and independence ✔ how character shows itself in private ✔ how restraint preserves dignity ✔ how reflection maintains clarity over time Quotes are presented in modern English and followed by brief explanations that clarify what Seneca is pointing out and why it still matters in everyday life-without instruction, motivation, or moral pressure. There are no techniques, routines, or promises of change. The aim is steadiness: clearer judgment, less friction, and internal alignment while remaining fully engaged in modern life. For readers who want philosophy that holds up when life does not slow down.
