Download or read book Celestial Harmonies written by Peter Esterhazy and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2005-03-15 with total page 882 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Esterházys, one of Europe's most prominent aristocratic families, are closely linked to the rise and fall of the Hapsburg Empire. Princes, counts, commanders, diplomats, bishops, and patrons of the arts, revered, respected, and occasionally feared by their contemporaries, their story is as complex as the history of Hungary itself. Celestial Harmonies is the intricate chronicle of this remarkable family, a saga spanning seven centuries of epic conquest, tragedy, triumph, and near annihilation. Told by Péter Esterházy, a scion of this populous clan, Celestial Harmonies is dazzling in scope and profound in implication. It is fiction at its most awe-inspiring. This P.S. edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews, recommended reading, and more.
Download or read book The Glance of Countess Hahn Hahn down the Danube written by Peter Esterhazy and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1999-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Glance of Countess Hahn-Hahn (down the Danube), Peter Esterhazy blends magic realism and travel narrative to dazzling effect. Esterhazy's hero is a professional Traveller, commissioned -- like Marco Polo by Kubla Khan -- to undertake a voyage of discovery and to prepare a travelogue about the Danube. Communicating his experiences through terse -- and at times surreal -- telegrams to his employer, the Traveller weaves a rich tapestry of narratives, evoking the dreamlike past and the precarious present of a disappearing world. Moving from the Black Forest to the Black Sea, Esterhazy takes the reader on a fascinating European journey of the imagination, down the Danube River, through Vienna, Budapest, and beyond the delta where the mighty river empties into the sea. Filled with allusion, fable, fantasy, history, and autobiography, The Glance of Countess Hahn-Hahn (down the Danube) is Peter Esterhazy at his scintillating, adventurous best.

Download or read book She Loves Me written by Péter Esterházy and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She Loves Me is Peter Esterhazy's paean to women: beautiful and ugly, kind and nasty, fat and bony, monogamous and promiscuous, seductive, negative, rebellious, and voracious. In ninety-seven short chapters this seductive novel contemplates love and desire and sex and hate, all from the point of view of a manly narrator who considers himself a great and successful lover, a womanizer, a man who may - or may not - be in love with all of the women of the world. Intelligent and funny, this book is a great declaration of love and of contempt, and a philosophical exploration of the many postures and pretenses of eros. With his characteristic verbal pyrotechnics, the serenely jaded Esterhazy proves that there will always be another romance, and that love and hate spring from the same inexhaustible font.

Download or read book The Landed Estates of the Esterh zy Princes written by Rebecca Gates-Coon and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In their own domains within eighteenth-century Hungary, the Esterhazy family rivaled their Habsburg rulers in splendor and refinement. During the reigns of Maria Theresia and Joseph II, the monarchy sought to curtail the power of the Esterhazy and other nobles by implementing centralizing reforms in their lands. Historian Rebecca Gates-Coon documents the world of the Esterhazy estates during these years of reform. Drawing on extensive research in archives rarely visited by Western historians, she offers a broad description of social, economic, and political life of these princely estates. Gates-Coon begins by describing the geographical extent of the vast Esterhazy lands. She then focuses on the Esterhazy themselves--the people, their magnificent dwellings, their households. She describes the Esterhazy's political and social role within the multinational ruling class of the Habsburg monarchy. She examines the impact of the radical agricultural reforms of Maria Theresia and Joseph II, both on the nobility and on the peasants. She discusses the little-known history of the Jewish communities. And she explores the Esterhazy's cultural patronage of music and the arts as well as their relations with such marginal groups as gypsies, traveling entertainers, peddlers, and beggars. This examination of the Esterhazy estates offers a uncommon look atthe Hungarian side of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It demonstrates that while life on the splendid Esterhazy estates proceeded in its customary fashion through much of this period, glimmerings of change were apparent at all social levels, the results of governmental actions and changing attitudes commonly known as eighteenth-century "enlightened" thought.
