How could she come here and expect him to employ her immediately? "In case you didn't know, I had planned on spending the rest of my life without ever seeing you again!" He told her. She sat up and retorted. "Well, for your information, I didn't thin...

Balzac's reputation is as a novelist. But short stories make up over half La Com die humaine, besides scores of other tales and articles. Balzac's Shorter Fictions looks at the whole of this corpus, at the nature of short fiction, and at how Balzac's novels developed from his stories--at the links between literary genesis and genre.

This is the first book devoted to a highly significant doctrine in the history of philosophy and science--Aristotle's account of place in the Physics. Morison presents an authoritative analysis and defense of this account of what it is for something to be somewhere, and demonstrates its enduring philosophical interest and value.

Among the figures drawn into dial...

Abela's blending of Kantian scholarship with contemporary epistemology offers a ...
