Till Eulenspiegel: His Adventures
ISBN: 9780415937634 / Angielski / Miękka / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A classic of German literature that spawned a hundred censored, watered-down progeny, Till Eulenspiegel is a cheerfully scatological collection of 95 loosely related fable-like vignettes depicting the life and times of the famous roving jester. The trickster hero devotes his life to deflating the pompus, the rich, the smug, the petty and anyone else who obstructs his merry path. The book includes the entire set of 87 16th-century woodcuts. It also contains an introduction that establishes the historical context of the tales, discusses the use of satire in the late Medieval and early...

Lazarillo de Tormes and The Grifter (El Buscon) : Two Novels of the Low Life in Golden Age Spain
ISBN: 9781624663451 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "An elegant, precise, and accessible modern-English rendering of the two best examples of the early modern picaresque genre: the paradigmatic "Lazarillo de Tormes" and Quevedo's mordant "El Buscon." Frye's translations are triumphant, capturing the cadence of popular early modern speech while remaining faithful to the original texts; his notes illuminate the diverse contexts in which the texts were written. Frye gives careful attention throughout to the historical background that propelled these two parallel but different monuments of Golden Age Spanish literature." --Teofilo Ruiz, UCLA"
