Titre : As you like it Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : William Shakespeare (1564-1616), Auteur ; Cedric Thomas Watts (1937-2022), Éditeur scientifique Editeur : Ware, Hertfordshire : Wordsworth Classics Année de publication : [2014] Collection : Wordsworth classics Importance : 1 vol. (127 p.) Format : 20 cm Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Théâtre (genre littéraire) anglais Index. décimale : E823 NOVELS AND STORIES Résumé : As You Like It is one of Shakespeare’s finest romantic comedies, variously lyrical, melancholy, satiric, comic and absurd. Its boldly implausible plot generates a profusion of love-lorn men, a resourceful heroine in disguise, sexual ambiguity, sceptical philosophising, and finally a multiplicity of marriages. The ironic medley of pastoral artifice, romantic ardour and quizzical reflection has helped to make As You Like It perennially popular in the theatre. A recent production was deemed ‘fresh, funny, sexy and, when it matters, deeply touching’. As You Like It is part of the Wordsworth Classics’ Shakespeare Series, used in the workshops of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Every volume in the series has been newly edited by Cedric Watts, described by Edward Said as ‘a man for whom the enjoyment and enrichment of friends and students is the main consideration in what he does’.
This Wordsworth Edition includes an exclusive Introduction and Notes by Cedric Watts, M.A., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of English, University of Sussex.As you like it [texte imprimé] / William Shakespeare (1564-1616), Auteur ; Cedric Thomas Watts (1937-2022), Éditeur scientifique . - Ware, Hertfordshire : Wordsworth Classics, [2014] . - 1 vol.

Titre : CALVARY - A NOVEL Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Octave Mirbeau, Auteur Editeur : Read Books Année de publication : 2016. Importance : 228p. Présentation : cov.col. Format : 21cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4733-3725-1 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : A NOVEL Erotica Romance Classics Index. décimale : E823 NOVELS AND STORIES Résumé : "Calvary" ("Le Calvaire") is a 1886 novel by the French journalist, playwright, and novelist Octave Mirbeau. Heavily drawing from his own life, Mirbeau's "Calvary" is a romanticised retelling of his fateful affair with a woman of questionable morals named Judith Vinmer - "Juliette Roux" in the novel. Octave Mirbeau (1848 - 1917) was a French playwright, travel writer, journalist, pamphleteer, art critic, and novelist whose work has been translated into thirty languages. Mirbeau became famous in Europe and enjoyed immense popularity, while simultaneously remaining appealing to the literary and artistic avant-garde. Other notable works by this author include: "Sébastien Roch" (1890), "Dans le ciel" (1893-1989), and "Le Jardin des supplices" (1899). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of erotic literature.

Titre : COMMON SENSE Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : THOMAS PAINE, Auteur Editeur : ALGER: FLITES EDITIONS Année de publication : 2012. Importance : 101p. Présentation : cov.col. Format : 15cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-9947-860-85-4 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : novel Index. décimale : E823 NOVELS AND STORIES Résumé : In 1775, the American colonies were a hotbed of political discord. Many of the British policies, specifically taxes, had caused American colonial leaders to consider the unthinkable: declaring independence from the British Empire and its King George. One such leader, Thomas Jefferson, wrote Common Sense: a pamphlet that explained the advantages of immediate and complete independence. In 1776, when the Declaration of Independence was signed, Common Sense became a national sensation, and has remained an important part of American history.
Thomas Paine published Common Sense in 1776, a time when America was a hotbed of revolution. The pamphlet, which called for America's political freedom, sold more than 150,000 copies in three months. Paine not only spurred his fellow Americans to action but soon came to symbolize the spirit of the Revolution itself. His writing challenged the British Government and the Royal monarchy. His persuasive pieces, written so elegantly, spoke to the hearts and minds of the common people of America and encouraged all those fighting for freedom from England.
Note de contenu : Today, Common Sense remains a landmark document in the struggle for freedom, distinguished not only by Paine's ideas but also by its clear and passionate presentation. Designed to ignite public opinion against autocratic rule, the pamphlet offered a careful balance between imagination and judgment, and appropriate language and expression to fit the subject. It immediately found a receptive audience, heartened Washington's despondent army, and foreshadowed much of the phrasing and substance of the Declaration of Independence.

Présentation : couv. ill. en coul, Format : 22 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-61895-699-6 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : NOVELS STORIES Index. décimale : E823 NOVELS AND STORIES Résumé : Felix Holt, the Radical (1866) is a social novel written by George Eliot about political disputes in a small English town at the time of the First Reform Act of 1832. In January 1868, Eliot penned an article entitled "Address to Working Men, by Felix Holt". This came on the heels of the Second Reform Act of 1867 which expanded the right to vote beyond the landed classes and was written in the character of, and signed by, Felix Holt. Set during the time of the Reform Act of 1832, the story centers on an election contested by Harold Transome, a local landowner, in the "Radical cause" ("Radical" because Transome's version of "radicalism" isn't radical at all, but rather an application of the term to his politically stagnate lifestyle), contrary to his family's Tory traditions. Contrasting with the opportunism of Transome is the sincere, but opinionated, Radical Felix Holt. A subplot concerns the stepdaughter of a Dissenting minister who is the true heir to the Transome estate, but who is unaware of the fact. She becomes the object of the affections of both Harold Transome and Felix Holt.

ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-4209-5434-0 Langues : Anglais (eng) Tags : novel Hard Times Index. décimale : E823 NOVELS AND STORIES Résumé : Charles Dickens’s tenth novel, which was first published serially in Dickens’s own periodical journal “Household Words” in 1854, “Hard Times,” is a work that sought to highlight the social and economic divide that was growing between capitalistic mill owners and workers during the Victorian era of Great Britain. Set in the fictitious Coketown, “Hard Times” is a critical examination of the poor working conditions in many English factory towns of the time as well as the changing nature of the aristocracy and the working-class in the second half of the 19th century. The novel centers on the lives of Thomas Gradgrind, senior, the superintendent of the local school, his children, Louisa and Thomas, junior, and Sissy Jupe, a free-spirited circus girl who struggles to fit in as a student under the rigidly utilitarian instruction of the Gradgrind school. Through the lives of Gradgrind’s children, Dickens’s seeks to criticize the failure of excessively utilitarian philosophy which was so prevalent during his time. As Louisa finds herself in an unhappy marriage and Thomas, junior, descends into a life of moral corruption, their father begins to realize the shortcomings of the philosophy that he has so rigidly applied in raising them. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and includes an introduction by Edwin Percy Whipple.

The novel centers on the lives of Thomas Gradgrind, senior, the superintendent of the local school, his children, Louisa and Thomas, junior, and Sissy Jupe, a free-spirited circus girl who struggles to fit in as a student under the rigidly utilitarian instruction of the Gradgrind school. Through the lives of Gradgrind’s children, Dickens’s seeks to criticize the failure of excessively utilitarian philosophy which was so prevalent during his time. As Louisa finds herself in an unhappy marriage and Thomas, junior, descends into a life of moral corruption, their father begins to realize the shortcomings of the philosophy that he has so rigidly applied in raising them. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and includes an introduction by Edwin Percy Whipple. Exemplaires (1)
