From 3rd March 2018 till October 2021, access to Project Gutenberg was blocked in Germany due to a court order, see the official statement from PGLAF. As similar situations might occur in the future, It is up to you to verify the books used in this course are in the public domain. The following books are used:
- Dracula by Bram Stoker
- The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
- Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
- The Prince by Nicolo Machiavelli
- Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman
- Emma by Jane Austen
- Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
- The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
- The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman
- Grimms’ Fairy Tales by Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm
- Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka
- The Importance of Being Earnest -- A Trivial Comedy for Serious People by Oscar Wilde
- The Divine Comedy -- The Vision of Hell, Purgatory and Paradise by Dante Alighieri
- A Tale of Two Cities -- A Story of the French Revolution by Charles Dickens
Before being able to do the Project Gutenberg-related exercises, you should
run the script resources/gutenberg/download.sh from the
resources/gutenberg/ directory, i.e.
cd resources/gutenberg
./download.sh
If you want a more fancy .bashrc configuration, e.g. a coloured
output of grep or a colored command prompt, run the install.sh
script from the files_for_home/ directory.
cd files_for_home
./install.sh
Note that this will replace your current .bashrc and your
current .profile in case these files exist.
The solutions to the exercises as well as some further information about the course can be found on the course website.
