On July 5, 1828, more than a century before Superman arrived on Earth, a superhero took flight in Philadelphias night sky. Buried on page three of a small local newspaper, the announcement of his arrival appeared under the title The Night-Hawk, No. 1 with a cryptic epigraph from Romeo and Juliet: Ill be a candleholder and look on. Who and what was the Night Hawk? As Matthew Warner Osborn reveals, this was the sobriquet of a mysterious columnist for the weekly Mechanics Free Press, the first radical socialist newspaper in America. Dressed in a mysterious cloak, the Night Hawk soared over Philadelphia, revealing the evil crimes of prominent gentlemen, fighting murderous criminals, and calling out fraudulent moral authorities. The Night Hawk was the ingenious invention of an impoverished actor, Cornelius A. Logan, who created the character as a public champion of Philadelphias Working Mens movement, the first successful American labor party. The Night Hawks nocturnal adventures transformed their socialist ideology into an entertaining fantasy that dramatized the struggle against industrial exploitation and the degradation of working people. The success of the character made Logan into a celebrity, and he went on to become a popular and innovative comedian on the antebellum stage. A harbinger of the superheroes we know today, the Night Hawk promises to illuminate dark secrets from the past, but he can also shed light on our present. He ignites our need to see corrupt elites unmasked and held accountable for their actions, all while protecting the innocent and oppressed. Americans have always loved to fantasize about powerful superheroes who hide behind masks while chasing bad guys, and Osborn shows in this entertaining history how the Night Hawk was perhaps the first standard bearer for that enduring mystique.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAutor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMatthew Warner Osborn\u003cspan style=\"color: #b3b3b3;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCaracterísticas técnicas:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eTamaño cerrado 152 x 229 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e233 páginas interiores\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eTapa rústica\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eEncuadernación lomo cuadrado\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003eEn Webook cuidamos el medio ambiente, imprimimos lo justo y este libro lo haremos especialmente para ti \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bibliomanager","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48701491708041,"sku":"001-0000304828","price":28300.0,"currency_code":"CLP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/5703\/6937\/files\/1570211_IMAGEN_TAPA_G_001.jpg?v=1792179863","url":"https:\/\/webook.cl\/products\/night-hawk","provider":"WeBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
