Nightmare Abbey
ISBN: 9788028355463 / Angielski / Miękka / 60 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Nightmare Abbey follows the fortunes of Christopher Glowry, Esquire, a morose widower who lives with his only son Scythrop in his semi-dilapidated family mansion Nightmare Abbey, which is situated on a strip of dry land between the sea and the fens in Lincolnshire. Scythrop is recovering from a love affair which ended badly when Mr Glowry and the young woman's father quarreled over terms and broke off the proposed match. With a penchant for melancholy, gothic mystery and abstruse Kantian metaphysics, Scythrop throws himself into a quixotic mission of reforming the world and regenerating the...

Gryll Grange
ISBN: 9781519572585 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Excerpt from Gryll Grange: Illustrated by F. H. Townsend, With an Introd, by George Saintsbury
But since the wit is as bright as ever, though less hard, it seems unreasonable to impute as a defect what, but for very obvious reasons, would be admitted as an improvement. Except Brougham, who still comes in for some severe language, no one of Peacock's old favourite abominations undergoes personal chastisement. On the contrary, indirect but pretty distinct apology is tendered to Wordsworth, Southey, and Coleridge by appreciative citation of their work. Even among the general victims,...

Crotchet Castle
ISBN: 9781107030725 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 442 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Thomas Love Peacock (1785 1866) is one of the most distinctive prose satirists of the Romantic period. The Cambridge Edition of the Novels of Thomas Love Peacock offers the first complete text of his novels to appear for more than half a century. Crotchet Castle (1831), his sixth novel, contains all the humour and social satire for which Peacock is famous. Its lively farce is more ambitious than that of the earlier works in its range of cultural and intellectual targets, including progressivism, dogmatism, liberalism, sexism, mass education and the idiocies of the learned. The book...

Maid Marian
ISBN: 9781544646503 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The friars, it may be well supposed, and such of the king's men as escaped unhurt from the affray, found their spirits a cup too low, and kept the flask moving from noon till night. The peaceful brethren, unused to the tumult of war, had undergone, from fear and discomposure, an exhaustion of animal spirits that required extraordinary refection. During the repast, they interrogated Sir Ralph Montfaucon, the leader of the soldiers, respecting the nature of the earl's offence. -A complication of offences, - replied Sir Ralph, -superinduced on the original basis of forest-treason.
