In 'The Adventures of Oliver Twist: Unabridged with the Original Illustrations by George Cruikshank', Charles Dickens takes us on a journey through the dark underbelly of Victorian London, exploring themes of poverty, social injustice, and the resilience of the human spirit. Written in Dickens' signature style, the novel combines intricate plot twists with vivid descriptions of the characters and their surroundings, creating a rich tapestry of emotions and experiences. This timeless classic is a powerful commentary on the harsh realities faced by the marginalized members of society during the 19th century. Charles Dickens, a prominent figure in English literature, drew inspiration for 'Oliver Twist' from his own childhood experiences of poverty and hardship. His keen observations of society's treatment of the poor and disadvantaged fueled his desire to shed light on the injustices of the time, making this novel a poignant and thought-provoking read for all. I highly recommend 'The Adventures of Oliver Twist' to readers interested in delving into the complexities of Victorian society and exploring the enduring themes of morality, compassion, and resilience.

This book provides an introduction to the study of meaning in human language, from a linguistic perspective. It covers a fairly broad range of topics, including lexical semantics, compositional semantics, and pragmatics. The chapters are organized into six units: (1) Foundational concepts; (2) Word meanings; (3) Implicature (including indirect speech acts); (4) Compositional semantics; (5) Modals, conditionals, and causation; (6) Tense & aspect. Most of the chapters include exercises which can be used for class discussion and/or homework assignments, and each chapter contains references for additional reading on the topics covered. As the title indicates, this book is truly an INTRODUCTION: it provides a solid foundation which will prepare students to take more advanced and specialized courses in semantics and/or pragmatics. It is also intended as a reference for fieldworkers doing primary research on under-documented languages, to help them write grammatical descriptions that deal carefully and clearly with semantic issues. The approach adopted here is largely descriptive and non-formal (or, in some places, semi-formal), although some basic logical notation is introduced. The book is written at level which should be appropriate for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students. It presupposes some previous coursework in linguistics, but does not presuppose any background in formal logic or set theory.

An essential collection of career-spanning writings by the political satirist and #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Parliament of Whores. From his early pieces for the National Lampoon, through his classic reporting as Rolling Stone’s International Affairs editor in the 1980s and 1990s, and his brilliant, inimitable political journalism and analysis, P. J. O’Rourke has been entertaining and provoking readers with high octane prose, a gonzo Republican attitude, and a rare ability to make you laugh out loud. Christopher Buckley once described his work as “S. J. Perelman on acid.” Thrown Under the Omnibus brings together his funniest, most outrageous, most controversial, and most loved pieces in the definitive O’Rourke reader. Handpicked and introduced by the humorist himself, Thrown Under the Omnibus is the essential O’Rourke anthology. “The funniest writer in America.” —The Wall Street Journal
