Victorian Tales of love, is a selection of love stories by various authors of the Victorian era.
The 22 authors of the anthology, sorted by date of birth, among those who are great writers. "begins with a story of Mary Shelley, the renowned author of Frankenstein, in order to link the romance and Gothic novel, Victorian literature."
"The Victorian period, with its desire for the true and reasonable, concern for decency and the acceptance of authority and orthodoxy, was a disproportionate literature and splendor of the English novel. But at the same time, thanks to the lowering of printing techniques and the middle class access to reading, the profusion of newspapers and magazines, which include short stories needed to fill their pages, pushed the genre of story, which then reached an extraordinary flourishing. The love, feeling as complex implications, was to have a relevant conflict in a society firmly geared to utilitarianism, as reflecting the greatest novels of passion and tactical performance of Jane Austen. Victorian tales of love provides an extensive, amazing and wonderful selection of love stories, prepared and translated by Marta Salis, which covers the whole spectrum of feelings so deep in the heart as a determinant for the confrontation of different social strata. From many different angles and treatments, twenty-author Mary Shelley to DH Lawrence, to Dickens, Stevenson, Conrad or Kipling, as well as some unfortunately unknown in our language, provide a rich panorama of suffering and of the intricate mazes of desire loving this extraordinary experience and common
still incalculable consequences. "
Some stories I liked more than others. At last justice is done (Elizabeth Gaskell), the assistant parish (Charles Dickens), The Cave Malacha (Anthony Trollope), Who Killed Zebedee? (Wilkie Collins ), Amy Foster (Joseph Conrad), a single day (Henry James) were my favorite stories. Thanks for reading Amy Foster discovered that the film Swept sea, is based on this story.
I read the book a little, story time, but to get to Dickens, irony-laden phrase stuck with me.
"But love is blind, and Nathaniel was squinting, and it is likely that the sum of these two circumstances prevent him from seeing things as they are. "
To not sickly so many loves, reading interspersed with tales from the United Dangerous JRR Tolkien's .
Anyone who knows me, knows my tendency geek about this author. Not for nothing, I have a giant poster of Aragorn in my bedroom, or use the princess Arwen as profile photo .
"Tales from the Perilous Realm in a single volume brings together five stories of fantasy and adventures written by JRR Tolkien and illustrated by Alan Lee . These short papers reaffirm Instead of Tolkien as a storyteller for readers of all ages. "
Roverandom The first story is the story of a puppy is to become a toy for a witch and her adventures to return to normal. It's a great story to read to a child, Tolkien wrote to comfort his young son when she lost her favorite toy on a beach.
