Travels into Spain
ISBN: 9780415344715 / Angielski / Twarda / 560 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'Of all literary fakes this is surely the most impudent, ingenious, and successful. The Comtesse D'Aulnoy was never in Spain (but) she was a born traveller. Not without reason have the editors of The Broadway Travellers included her fiction in their library of fact. For, despite its falseness, it is intellectually the real thing.' Saturday Review
However her work is judged today, it seems certain that Madame D'Aulnoy was one of the most widely-read and most popular authors of her time. Seeing Spain at a strange moment in her history, it is the end of a great age. The last descendent of... 'Of all literary fakes this is surely the most impudent, ingenious, and successful.

Anthony Trollope: The Major Works in 53 Volumes
ISBN: 9781443813372 / Angielski / Miękka / 15412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anthony Trollope was one of the most popular writers of his generation, the one between Dickens and Thackeray on the one hand and such late Victorians as Stevenson and Wilde on the other which saw the greatest popularity and social standing of the Victorian literary novel. However, his posthumous reputation suffered at the hands of fellow novelists who thought him pedestrian, and critics after his death who presumed that no-one so prolific, and able to work to so rigid a schedule, could be inspired. Yet he is now undergoing a critical revival, revealing a daringly progressive thinker on...

The Complete Works of Arthur Conan Doyle in 56 Volumes
ISBN: 9781443813358 / Angielski / Miękka / 10988 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The life of Arthur Conan Doyle illustrates the excitement and diversity of the Victorian age unlike that of any other figure of the period. In his autobiography, he wrote: 'I have had a life which, for variety and romance, could, I think, hardly be exceeded.' He was not wrong. But Conan Doyle was also a Victorian with a twist, a man of tensions and contradictions. He was fascinated by travel, exploration, invention, and indeed all things modern and technological; yet at the same time very traditional, voicing support for values such as chivalry, duty, constancy, and honour. By the time of his...

British Socialist Fiction, 1884-1914
ISBN: 9781848933576 / Angielski / Twarda / 2080 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Socialism in late Victorian and Edwardian Britain was a highly literate movement. Every socialist group produced some form of written text - a periodical, pamphlets or books - through which their particular brand of politics was promoted. Periodicals, from the Social Democratic Federation's Justice onward, included serials and short fiction written by, and for, socialists. Unlike the literature of the earlier Chartist movement or the political history of socialism, the literature of the British Socialist movement has been neglected. This fiction often carries a clear political message which...
