Robin Hood: An Anthology of Scholarship and Criticism
ISBN: 9780859915250 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 495 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

A serious radical, strongly pro-woman, and a leading Chartist seeking the vote for all men, Reynolds’ vigorous heroines differ notably from the Victorian novelists’ timid norm. He was strongly pro-Jewish and pro-Gypsy, very...
