Melmoth the Wanderer
ISBN: 9781519519306 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 578 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Written by an eccentric Anglican curate in Dublin, Melmoth the Wanderer brought the Gothic novel to a new pitch of claustrophobic intensity, surpassing the quiet tremors of Ann Radcliffe's romances in its reckless accumulation of cruelties and blasphemies. Its tormented villain, a Faustian transgressor desperately seeking a victim to release him from his fatal bargain with the devil, was regarded by Balzac as one of the great outcasts of modern literature. Intended partly as an attack on Roman Catholicism, Maturin's intriguing novel teeters giddily over abysses of sacrilege and raving...

Works of Charles Robert Maturin, Vol. 5: Melmoth the Wanderer
ISBN: 9781329604933 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 734 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Charles Robert Maturin's well-known novel, Melmoth the Wanderer (1820), occupies a high-point in Gothic literature. Lurid, vivid, sacrilegious, paranoid, anti-Catholic, painfully tortuous and gleefully drawn out in its depictions of suffering, its title character tries to find victims miserable enough to take over his bargain with "the enemy of mankind." Maturin displayed his talents of "darkening the gloomy" by interweaving tales of Melmoth's intended victims: the Englishman Stanton, ensnared into an insane asylum; the Spaniard Moncada, trapped in monasteries and prisons of the Inquisition;...

The Wild Irish Boy, Works of Charles Robert Maturin, Vol. 2
ISBN: 9781304846860 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Wild Irish Boy (1808) was Charles Robert Maturin's second novel. Set in Ireland and England, the story follows the adventures of Ormsby Bethel, a young Irishman of uncertain ancestry, as he navigates through the temptations of high life, the intrigues of swindlers, gamblers, and fast women, and his own uncertainties about his place in the societies of both countries. Combining features of the silver fork novel, coming-of-age story, and to some degree (in scenes of Irish life) the national novel, The Wild Irish Boy is an entertaining tale full of unexpected twists and turns, extravagant...

Women
ISBN: 9781312845886 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 562 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Women; or, Pour et Contre, was Maturin's fourth novel, published in 1818. A work of deep emotional intensity, Maturin wished to concentrate on "common life." But he does so with uncommon psychological penetration for its time, while detailing the painful romantic attractions of two fascinating women-Eva, a deeply religious and innocent girl, and the intellectually superior, talented, and popular Zaira-to the same man, De Courcy. While also satirizing evangelical Christianity (with more good humor than he treats Catholicism in his most famous work, Melmoth the Wanderer) and the intellectual...

The Albigenses, Works of Charles Robert Maturin, Vol. 6
ISBN: 9781387063413 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 740 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Charles Robert Maturin's last novel, The Albigenses (1824), a historical romance of the early 13th century, is a rich tale of the conflict between the Catholic church and the Albigenses, a heretical sect centered in Languedoc. Its historical background does little to inhibit Maturin's strong penchant for extravagant scenes of violence, horror, and vivid evocations of nature at its least benign. His many characters people a well-plotted story of impressive density-the heroine, Genevieve, kind hearted, bold, true to her creed; the ruthless bishop of Toulouse; churchmen and women, of varying...

Fatal Revenge, Works of Charles Robert Maturin, Vol. 1
ISBN: 9781304373427 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 706 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Charles Robert Maturin's first novel, Fatal Revenge; or, The Family of Montorio, was published in 1807. Maturin's dark tale of the brothers Ippolito and Annibal Montorio is a complexly plotted adventure, full of "strong and vigorous fancy, with great command of language," according to Sir Walter Scott. Maturin's relish for the gothic and horrid, so brilliantly exploited in his masterpiece of 1820, Melmoth the Wanderer, here makes its first appearance, and the themes that haunted the later novel find their initial expression in Fatal Revenge. Maturin's unique talents of "darkening the gloomy,...
