Complete Works Of William Shakespeare - Othello; Antony And Cleopatra; Cymbeline; Pericles

by William Shakespeare

14,38€ + 10% CARD

 Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The Complete Works of William Shakespeare is a work that has had such far reaching effect in the English speaking world and outside that it can barely be overstated. One might legitimately claim that it would be impossible to understand the world, without understanding Shakespeare. He changed our turn of phrase, our story telling traditions and immortalised his characters. Othello brought us Iago, a villain who is as pathetic as he is terrifying and plausible. Anthony and Cleopatra is a story so powerful that it has pulled our contemporary understanding of history into its orbit, her panache, his conflict and the world burning around them. Less famous but no less stunning is the story of Imogen’s doomed love for Posthumus, a beautiful telling of a captivated father, an evil stepmother and a pair of star-crossed lovers. Another less known gem is the story of the classic damsel in distress, Marina turns a tragic situation around and regains a chance at true love in the collaborative work, Pericles. This book is challenge and remedy all in one volume. Shakespeare is often imitated but never bettered. He provided us with a penetrating lens through which to assess love, class, jealousy, abandon and power. Not only have these works allowed us to understand ourselves but they have allowed us to consider what we should be. As an immeasurable improvement on earlier morality plays, Shakespeare takes on a relatively secular lens and a creative method of illustrating his points to the audience. He is enjoyable for those looking for an engrossing story but with no shortage of meaning and humour for those digging deeper. This volume contains the plays Othello, Anthony and Cleopatra, Cymbeline and Pericles.

Historians' History Of The World - A Comprehensive Narrative Of The Rise And Development Of Nations As Recorded By Over Two Thousand Of The Great Writers Of All Ages; Italy

by Henry Smith Williams

17,03€ + 10% CARD

 Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In 781 Charlemagne crowned his son Pepin king of Italy, and in the memorable year 800 Charlemagne was himself crowned emperor of the West, reviving the title and a semblance of the glory of the old Imperium. Charle magne''s successors retained nominal control over the empire, and disputed with the popes the real control of Italy. This warfare between the papal monarch and the emperors was a salient feature of the later centuries of the epoch. The power of the church had increased Slowly and insidiously until in the ninth and tenth centuries the bishop of Rome aspired to real kingship over Italy, even over the entire empire. The five hundred years of Italian history outlined in this period contrast strangely (as has been said) in their world historical meaning with the half millennium of empire that preceded it, or with the other half millennium within which were comprised the events of the Roman commonwealth. Those earlier periods, as we glance back over them in perspective, bristle with great events whereas this later epoch Shows a bare plane of mediocrity, if not of decline. Yet we must not think of these later centuries as representing a time of relapse into actual barbarism. It was rather an epoch when the decadent civilisation was struggling against complete overthrow on the one hand, while the new Civilisation was striving to make itself felt, striving as yet ineffectually as regards the higher culture, yet none the less preparing the way for the future germination of a new life in the old empire.

Works Of The Reverend William Law

by William Law

 Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The ''three Letters to a Lady inclined to enter the Romish Communion'' are now for the first time included in the Rev. W. Law''s works. They were written during the years 1731-2 but there is some uncertainty respecting the identity of the person to whom they were originally addressed, which is however a matter of only slight consequence. For the appearance of these letters in this republication Readers are indebted to the Rev. F. Sanders, Vicar of Hoylake, who kindly lent his copy for this purpose; and whose remark respecting william law''s works — that he knew of no author so likely to do good in this restless and impatient age — is well worthy of repetition here. During the progress of this work through the Press, further writings by the Rev. William law have been discovered; which, together with his other correspondence and various matters of interest in connection therewith will — with an Index or Summary to his complete works — be issued in a volume of Miscellanies, of which due notice will be given.

Beggar & Other Short Stories (Volume 9) - Short Story Compilations From Arguably The Greatest Short Story Writer Ever.

by Anton Tchékhov

2,35€ + 10% CARD

 The short story is often viewed as an inferior relation to the Novel. But it is an art in itself. To take a story and distil its essence into fewer pages while keeping character and plot rounded and driven is not an easy task. Many try and many fail. A widespread favourite of scholars, critics and causal readers alike, Anton Chekhov is one of the most challenging and enjoyable authors to read. Both a doctor and writer, Chekhov initially had little interest in literature, writing predominantly as a source of income. As recognition of his talents spread so his ambition grew he began to assert itself and history now acknowledges him as the greatest short story writer of all time.

Ghosts (1881)

by Henrik Ibsen

2,76€ + 10% CARD

 Henrik Ibsen (20th March, 1828 - 23rd May, 1906) is often referred to as the father of realism and ranked just below Shakespeare as Europe’s greatest ever playwright especially as his plays are performed most frequently throughout the world after Shakespeare’s. He was Norwegian and although set his plays in Norway, he wrote them in Danish and lived most of his professional life in Italy and Germany. His affect on the theatre is still evident today and shapes the distinction of plays being art as opposed to entertainment since he broke down all previous traditions and explored issues, developed characterisation, revealed uncomfortable truths, challenged assumptions and brokedown facades in ourselves as well as society. These factors are clearly demonstrated in Ghosts which exposes painful and hidden past secrets that affect many of the characters. The protagonist, Mrs Alving, is a wealthy middle aged widow who was the victim of an alcoholic unfaithful husband. She searches to make sense of her life and comes to realise that her husband was suffocated by convention and is unwilling to let her life go the same way. The play tackles many taboo topics of its day like assisted suicide, premarital sex, incest, syphilis and criticism of the church and whilst these issues are no longer the hot potatoes they were, Ibsen’s strong characterisation and haunting prose make this a powerful relevant drama.
