Waverley, czyli sześćdziesiąt lat temu
ISBN: 9788377796931 / Polski / Twarda / 2021 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Waverley to piękna i romantyczna opo¬wieść rozgrywająca się na tle wydarzeń 1745 roku w Szkocji – powstania szkockich jakobitów, czyli zwolenników zrzuconej w czasie rewo¬lucji 1688 roku z tronu angielskiego dynastii Stuartów.
Jakobityzm był w Szkocji, a zwłaszcza wśród górali, niezwykle mocno zakorzeniony, wiązał się bowiem nierozłącznie z walką o niezależność narodową i o odrębność kul¬turalną. Prześladowanie przez Anglików szkockiej dynastii Stuar¬tów uczyniło ją w oczach wielu Szkotów symbolem prześladowań i klęsk samej Szkocji. W miarę...

Guy Mannering
ISBN: 9781514873441 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Novel or Romance of WAVERLEY made its way to the public slowly, of course, at first, but afterwards with such accumulating popularity as to encourage the author to a second attempt. He looked about for a name and a subject; and the manner in which the novels were composed cannot be better illustrated than by reciting the simple narrative on which Guy Mannering was originally founded; but to which, in the progress of the work, the production ceased to bear any, even the most distant resemblance. The tale was originally told me by an old servant of my father's, an excellent old Highlander,...

The Bride of Lammermoor
ISBN: 9780199552504 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 512 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The plans of Edgar, Master of Ravenswood to regain his ancient family estate from the corrupt Lord Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland are frustrated by the complexities of the legal and political situations following the 1707 Act of Union, and by his passion for his enemy's beautiful daughter Lucy. First published in 1819, this intricate and searching romantic tragedy offers challenging insights into emotional and sexual politics, and demonstrates the shrewd way in which Scott presented his work as historical document, entertainment, and work of art.

Ivanhoe: A Romance
ISBN: 9781512082524 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Author of the Waverley Novels had hitherto proceeded in an unabated course of popularity, and might, in his peculiar district of literature, have been termed "L'Enfant Gate" of success. It was plain, however, that frequent publication must finally wear out the public favour, unless some mode could be devised to give an appearance of novelty to subsequent productions. Scottish manners, Scottish dialect, and Scottish characters of note, being those with which the author was most intimately, and familiarly acquainted, were the groundwork upon which he had hitherto relied for giving effect to...

Waverley
