Stan Lee (b. 1922), co-creator of The Amazing Spider-Man, The Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk, and The Uncanny X-Men, is one of the most successful writers and publishers of comics.

The Correspondence of Dante Gabriel Rossetti 7: The Last Decade, 1873-1882: Kelmscott to Birchington II. 1875-1877.
ISBN: 9781843841340 / Angielski / Twarda / 516 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The period from 1875-77 covers the greater part of what Rossetti's brother William later characterized as -the chloralized years- when the amounts he took, usually accompanied by alcohol, eventually led to another breakdown and even alienated his old friend Ford Madox Brown for a time. In his mounting troubles with creditors, patrons, and various legal matters he depended more and more on Theodore Watts-Dunton. The sojourn at Aldwick Lodge, Bognor, from the fall of 1875 to July 1876, was marked by Rossetti's ever-deepening depression. The artist, who had perhaps hoped for another idyllic...
