" A moins de trente ans - l'âge de Bonaparte au Pont d'Arcole ou d'Alexandre à la bataille d'Arbèles - Thomas Edward Lawrence fut l'un des chefs de la Révolte arabe contre l'Empire ottoman. Nul historien ne conteste plus aujourd'hui l'importance de son rôle dans cette guérilla du désert qui, en affaiblissant au Proche-Orient l'allié des Empires Centraux, devait infléchir le cours de la Grande Guerre.Les Sept Piliers de la Sagesse retrace le déroulement de cette épopée moderne, de 1916 à 1918. Récit de campagne dans la plus pure tradition des historiens antiques, c'est aussi une méditation sur les destins entrecroisés de l'Orient sémite et de l'Occident christianisé. C'est surtout, servi par une langue admirable de rigueur et de sobriété, l'autoportrait en actes d'un homme hors du commun, en qui s'unissent avec un rare bonheur la clairvoyance et l'intrépidité, le sens du lyrisme et le goût de l'érudition, la culture humaniste et la vertu guerrière." En tant que récit de guerre et d'aventure, Les Sept Piliers de la Sagesse est un livre inégalable, écrit W. Churchill. Il prend place aux côtés des plus grands ouvrages jamais écrits en langue anglaise. "Traduction nouvelle, introduction et notes de Renée et André Guillaume."

"Horcht auf, Kinder!" Eine der schönsten und beliebtesten Erzählungen zur Weihnachtszeit stammt von E. T. A. Hoffmann: "Die Nuß Krakatuk hatte eine solche harte Schale, daß eine achtundvierzigpfündige Kanone darüber wegfahren konnte, ohne sie zu zerbrechen. Diese harte Nuß mußte aber von einem Manne, der noch nie rasiert worden und der niemals Stiefeln getragen, vor der Prinzessin aufgebissen und ihr von ihm mit geschlossenen Augen der Kern dargereicht werden. Erst nachdem er sieben Schritte rückwärts gegangen, ohne zu stolpern, durfte der junge Mann wieder die Augen erschließen.""Nußknacker und Mausekönig" erschien zuerst 1816 und liegt hier als Taschenbuch-Neuausgabe vor.
