Shakespeare Tales of Humour and Wit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 35min
In Shakespeare plays the tragic and the comic often fade into each other, turning into a harmonious blending of these two elements. Shakespeare takes a special delight in the employment of such harmonies. His tragedies never fail having their comic interludes, and his comedies often have a serious undertone. Still, the comic is not the tragic, and in this collection we offer some of the more humorous and witty tales from Shakespeare. The following Shakespeare adaptations are included here: A Midsummer Night's Dream, As You Like It and Measure for Measure. Read in English, unabridged. ungekürzt. Language: English.

2018 Château Clerc Milon 5. GRAND CRU CLASSÉ PAUILLAC A.C.
Decanter: 96/100 Punkte »The progression of this property continues to be evident in the glass with a beautiful classicism, full of life and layers comprising dark spice and touches of black pepper against blueberry and cool fruits, pumped up by black chocolate and liquorice. It’s confident and clearly has a fierce quality to the tannins giving a long life ahead of it. The harvest started on September 17, one week later than Mouton because of its cooler terroir, with the blend completed by 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Carmanère. This is the last vintage with Jean-Emmanuel Donjoy at the helm as he’s making his way over to Mouton-Rothschild to work alongside Philippe Dhalluin. A tough gig to turn down of course, but I will miss the work he has done here and look forward to seeing what his successor will add. Drinking Window 2026 - 2040« James Suckling: 95-96/100 Punkte »Very generous and dense with layers of gorgeous blackberries and blueberries. Full-bodied and so layered with fantastic tannin backbone at the same time.« Falstaff: 95/100 Punkte »Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart floral unterlegte Nuancen von Herzkirschen, ein Hauch von Orangenzesten, attraktives Bukett. Saftig, extraktsüße, reife Kirschen, rund, harmonische Tannine, verfügt über gute Länge, süßer Nachhall, gutes Reifepotenzial.« Wine Spectator: 93-96/100 Punkte »This is well-built, with a sleek and persistent structure carrying energetic cassis, damson plum, violet and iron notes. Offers a long, pure, almost chiseled finish. A strong showing.« Wine Enthusiast: 93-95/100 Punkte »Barrel Sample. This spicy wine has an undertone of oak that adds to the richness. While there is a dense blackberry flavor, the bright acidity shines through to lighten it up.It's a fine wine with plenty of aging potential.« Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: 93-95/100 Punkte »The 2018 Clerc Milon is composed of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot and 1% Carménère. Grapes were harvested a bit later here than at Mouton, from September 17 to October 10. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with bold scents of warm cassis, blackberry compote and dark chocolate with hints of Morello cherries, baking spices and dried roses plus a waft of underbrush. It has a wonderfully rich, confidently sensuous palate with plenty of spicy layers and a velvety texture, finishing long and perfumed. This should age incredibly.« Weinwisser: 19/20 »60 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 27 % Merlot, 9 % Cabernet Franc, 3 % Petit Verdot, 1% Carmenère. Sattes dunkles Purpurgranat mit lila Rand. Reifes Brombeerbouquet, Lakritze und Veilchen. Im zweiten Ansatz viel Cassis und Korinthen. Am cremigen Gaumen mit opulentem Körper und herrlich süssem Extrakt. Im gebündelten, nachhaltigen Finale eine Explosion eines blauen Beerencocktails, schwarze Johannisbeerdrops und Schokopralinen. Grossartige Leistung, auf dem gleichen Niveau wie der phänomenale 2009er! Trinken 2026 bis 2048« Vinum: 17,5/20 Punkte »Besitzt aromatische Komplexität, Mineralität und grosse Rasse, langes, unglaublich fruchtiges Finale, erstklassiges, knackiges Tannin: superb, abgefüllt 18 Punkte wert! 2026 bis 2040« Bitte beachten Sie die Sonderbedingungen der Subskription in unseren AGB.- Shop: Ludwig von Kapff

Gitanjali , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 79min
Gitanjali is a collection of poems by the poet, polymath, musician, and artist Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) who modernised Bengali literature and Indian art in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tagore is sometimes referred to as "the Bard of Bengal". First published in 1912, the English Gitanjali or Song Offerings is a collection of Tagore's own English translations of his Bengali poems. It comprised translations of poems from the original Bengali Gitanjali, as well as poems drawn from his other books of poetry like Gitimalya, Naivedya, and Kheya and from his drama Achalayatan. Many of the translations are indirect, altering, or omitting large parts of the poem or fusing two separate poems. In 1913, Tagore was the first non-European to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, mainly for the English Gitanjali. The compound word "gitanjali" literally means "song offering" but the part meaning offering, "anjali" has a devotional undertone, so the title may also be rendered as "hymn offering". ungekürzt.

The Silent Pulpit , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 81min
Father Donavon held within him a terrible resolve. At every church he was assigned there would be complaints about his character. He was a good priest and he lived according to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Still, there existed a horrid undertone of discontent and ambition within him. The Church didn't really know what to do with him. If no one would work with Donavon, he was to be given his own church. Upon taking command of Saint Marcus Church, Donavon entered a bizarre world that only Poe or Lovecraft could have created. An attractive and out-of-place housekeeper named Anna. Donavon's nightly dreams would flood with images of her lovely body. An old priest named Mavis who held within him a "terrible secret" which could only be controlled with a permanent drunken stupor. A church no one in the neighborhood seemed to remember or worshiped within. Secrets within secrets, clouded occasionally with an overcast of mystery. ungekürzt. Language: English.
