Wer jemals eine Kreuzfahrt erlebt hat, wird geradezu süchtig nach mehr. Eine Kreuzfahrt in die Karibik allerdings ist nochmal etwas ganz besonderes, weil man dabei Inseln sehen und bestaunen kann, die man ansonsten nie erreicht. In diesem Reisebericht erlebt man hautnah, was alles passieren kann, wenn man in die Dominikanische Republik, nach St. Vincent, Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada, Tortola, St.Kitts und Nevis, Antigua oder Dominica mit der AIDA kommt. Neben lustigen Episoden erfährt man auch die Wahrheit und kann von Tipps profitieren, die nützlich sein können, wenn man einmal selbst eine solche Reise antritt. [more]

"Dile al helicóptero que se vaya -dijo la líder guerrillera. Él la reconoció, era Ernesta Arnel, uno de los "más buscado". Llevaba el pelo pómulos denotaban su ascendencia tribal. En otras circunstancias la hubiese encontrado atractiva, pero bajo ese uniforme verde y rodeada por un cinturón de armas, le parecía difícil. Él sabía que ella llevaba luchando en la selva durante doce años. Ella lo observaba; lo encontraba hermoso. Sus rasgos indígenas estaban intrincados por ojos pequeños oscuros, cejas gruesas y cabello corto al estilo militar. Entre el calor y la coca, se dio cuenta que ella le coqueteaba. Ella no había intimado con un hombre en meses. Su vida en la guerrilla había significado vivir entre los olores de cadáveres y sangre fresca, comer a la intemperie y tener un cuarto desaliñado. Su vida se medía en muertes, eso bien lo sabía y comenzaba a cuestionárselo, ¿cuántos tenía que matar para tener éxito?. “Eterna Revolución”, su líder solía decir, pero algo en ella anhelaba la estabilidad de un hogar, como había sido en su propia choza años atrás. Ella le miró a los ojos y vio en él la misma necesidad" [more]

'We have all been more or less to blame ... every one of us, excepting Fanny' Taken from the poverty of her parents' home, Fanny Price is brought up with her rich cousins at Mansfield Park, acutely aware of her humble rank and with only her cousin Edmund as an ally. When Fanny's uncle is absent in Antigua, Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive in the neighbourhood, bringing with them London glamour and a reckless taste for flirtation. As her female cousins vie for Henry's attention, and even Edmund falls for Mary's dazzling charms, only Fanny remains doubtful about the Crawfords' influence and finds herself more isolated than ever. A subtle examination of social position and moral integrity, Mansfield Park is one of Jane Austen's most profound works. This edition is based on the first edition of 1814. It includes a new chronology, additional suggestions for further reading and the original Penguin Classics introduction by Tony Tanner [more]

„Ich habe ihn geliebt, Mutter“, flüsterte Elea, „ich liebe ihn heute noch und ich werde ihn bis an mein Lebensende lieben, sei es in wenigen Stunden oder in hundert Jahren.“ Alles, was Miss Eleanor Stapleton von ihrem Leben erwarten kann, ist eine arrangierte Ehe mit einem Mann, dem sie noch nie begegnet ist und für den sie das heimatliche London verlässt und nach Antigua reist. Unzivilisiert - so wurden ihr die Kolonien in der Karibik beschrieben, doch keine Erzählung kann sie auf die blutige Realität eines Piratenüberfalles vorbereiten. Als Geisel eines Piratenkapitäns, der wortwörtlich fähig ist über Leichen zu gehen, soll sie als Druckmittel auf ihren Vater dienen, der den Fehler begangen hat Black Wolfs Maat und Steuermann in den Kerker zu werfen. Als die anfängliche Angst um ihr Leben verklingt, fängt Eleanor an hinter die Fassade des unbarmherzigen Piraten zu sehen. [more]

El cristianismo y la reforma son las dos mayores revoluciones de la historia, las que no se operan solamente en un pueblo, como los diversos movimientos políticos, que la historia nos refiere, sino en muchos pueblos; y sus efectos deben hacerse sentir hasta el cabo del mundo. El cristianismo y la reforma son la misma revolución, pero obrada en épocas y circunstancias diferentes. Son desemejantes en puntos secundarios, pero son una sola, en los primeros y principales. La segunda es una repetición del primero; este abolió la antigua alianza; con aquella ha reaparecido la nueva, y entre ambas esta la edad media. El cristianismo es el padre de la reformación; y si la hija bajo algunos respetos lleva señales de inferioridad, por otro lado tiene caracteres que le son propios. [more]

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor Will Go Down In History As One Of The Most Famous And Beloved Queens. That Has Ever Walked On The Face Of The Planet Earth. Elizabeth II (Elizabeth Alexandra Mary; born 21 April 1926) is the constitutional monarch of 16 sovereign states, known as the Commonwealth realms, and their territories and dependencies, and head of the 54-member Commonwealth of Nations. She is Supreme Governor of the Church of England and, in some of her realms, carries the title of Defender of the Faith as part of her full title. On her accession on 6 February 1952, Elizabeth became Head of the Commonwealth and queen regnant of seven independent Commonwealth countries: the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan and Ceylon. From 1956 to 1992, the number of her realms varied as territories gained independence and some realms became republics. At present, in addition to the first four aforementioned countries, Elizabeth is Queen of Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, and Saint Kitts and Nevis. Her reign of 61 years is currently the second longest for a British monarch; only Queen Victoria, her great-great grandmother, has reigned longer, at over 63 years. Elizabeth was born in London and educated privately at home. Her father acceded to the throne as George VI in 1936 on the abdication of his brother Edward VIII, from which time she was the heir presumptive. She began to undertake public duties during the Second World War, in which she served in the Auxiliary Territorial Service. In 1947, she married Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, with whom she has four children: Charles, Anne, Andrew, and Edward. Her coronation service took place in 1953 and was the first to be televised. Elizabeth II's many historic visits and meetings include a state visit to the Republic of Ireland and reciprocal visits to and from the Pope. Elizabeth has seen major constitutional changes in her realms, such as devolution in the United Kingdom and the patriation of the Canadian constitution. Times of personal significance have included the births and marriages of her children, the births of her grandchildren, the investiture of the Prince of Wales, and the celebration of milestones such as her Silver, Golden, and Diamond Jubilees in 1977, 2002, and 2012, respectively. Major events in Elizabeth's reign have included the Troubles in Northern Ireland, the Falklands War, and wars with Iraq and in Afghanistan. There have been times of personal sorrow for her which include the death of her father at 56, the assassination of Prince Philip's uncle, Lord Mountbatten, the breakdown of her children's marriages in 1992 (a year deemed her annus horribilis), the death in 1997 of her son's former wife, Diana, Princess of Wales, and the deaths of her mother and sister in 2002.
