Маккей С., Шифры цивилизации. коды, секретные послания и тайные знаки в истории человечества — 2023
С древних времен человек пытался изобрести шифры, которые невозможно взломать. Скрывающие связь влюбленные, секретные сообщества и церковные ордена, разведчики, дипломаты и военные — лишь небольшая часть тех, кто стремился любой ценой сохранить свои тайны. Перемещаясь между эпохами, историк и писатель Синклер Маккей рассказывает о самых знаменитых шифрах и дешифровщиках, хитроумных шпионах и контрразведчиках, поэтах и ученых, включавших в свои труды тайнопись, и, конечно же, о всевозможных кодах. Читатели узнают о глифах майя и библейских пророчествах, о загадочном Манускрипте Войнича, шифровальной машине «Энигма», о сообщениях, которые ученые отправляют в космос, и будущем криптографии. Немало внимания уделено древним письменам, таким как надписи на Розеттском камне, и способам их расшифровки. К каждой главе прилагаются логические задачи, шифры и загадки, которые позволят читателю почувствовать себя криптографом.

American Satire. Satirical Short Stories and Essays — 1966
В настоящем сборнике собраны сатирические произведения американских писателей от Бенджамина Франклина до наших дней. Как известно,юмористическая и сатирическая струя всегда были сильны в американской литературе. Не говоря уже о профессиональных юмористах и сатириках,в США не найдется,пожалуй,ни одного крупного писателя,который бы в той или иной степени не отдал дань этому жанру.При размещении рассказов в книге соблюдалось два условия:представитель авторов в хронологическом порядке и в таком же порядке-рассказы,в тех случаях,когда известна дата их первого напечатания.Каждому автору посвящена небольшая справка, в которой сообщаются краткие сведения о нем и о его творчестве и указаны его основные произведения. Книга снабжена комментарием с объяснением отсутствующих в англо-русском словаре Мюллера реалий,некоторых имен и исторических дат,а также переводом особо трудных для понимания английских предложений.

Lewis S., Elmer Gantry — 1960
Universally recognized as a landmark in American literature, Elmer Gantry scandalized readers when it was first published, causing Sinclair Lewis to be invited to a jail cell in New Hampshire and to his own lynching in Virginia. His portrait of a golden-tongued evangelist who rises to power within his church--a saver of souls who lives a life of duplicity, sensuality, and ruthless self-indulgence--is also the record of a period, a reign of grotesque vulgarity, which but for Lewis would have left no trace of itself. Elmer Gantry has been called the greatest, most vital, and most penetrating study of hypocrisy that has been written since the works of Voltaire.

Sinclair U., Oil! — 2008
There Will Be Blood wins a 2008 Golden Globes Award. Read about it here. There Will Be Blood wins two 2008 Academy Awards. Read about it here. Penguin Books is proud to now be the sole publisher of Oil!, the classic 1927 novel by Upton Sinclair. After writing The Jungle, his scathing indictment of the meatpacking industry, Sinclair turned his sights on the early days of the California oil industry in a highly entertaining story featuring a cavalcade of characters including senators, oil magnets, Hollywood film starlets, and a crusading evangelist.This lively and panoramic book, which was recently cited by David Denby in the New Yorker as being Sinclair—s —most readable— novel, is now the inspiration for the Paramount Vantage major motion picture, There Will Be Blood. It is the long-awaited film from Paul Thomas Anderson, one of the most admired filmmakers working today whose previous movies, Boogie Nights and Magnolia were both multiple Academy Award nominees. The movie stars Oscar-winner Daniel Day-Lewis (Gangs of New York, My Left Foot) and Paul Dano (Little Miss Sunshine). Paramount Vantage will be releasing the film in New York and Los Angeles on December 26, 2007 and go nationwide in January. This is the same company responsible for Babel and A Mighty Heart and the current releases, Into the Wild, Margot at the Wedding, and The Kite Runner. As wars rage on in the oil region and as anxiety over natural resources rise, the subject of this book, which celebrates its 80th anniversary in 2007, is more timely than ever.

Sinclair U., The Jungle — 1981
In this powerful book we enter the world of Jurgis Rudkus, a young Lithuanian immigrant who arrives in America fired with dreams of wealth, freedom, and opportunity. And we discover, with him, the astonishing truth about "Packingtown," the busy, filthy Chicago stockyards, where new world visions perish in a jungle of human suffering. Upton Sinclair, master of the "muckraking" novel, here explores the workingman's lot at the turn of the century: the backbreaking labour, the injustices of "wage-slavery," the bewildering chaos of urban life. The Jungle, a story so shocking that it launched a government investigation, recreates this startling chapter of our history in unflinching detail. Always a vigorous champion of political reform, Sinclair is also a gripping storyteller, and his 1906 novel stands as one of the most important - and moving - works in the literature of social change. With an Introduction by Morris Dickstein.
