Book The Novels of Victor Hugo  Vol  15

Download or read book The Novels of Victor Hugo Vol 15 written by Victor Hugo and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Novels of Victor Hugo, Vol. 15: Hans of Iceland "Hans of Iceland" is the work of a young man - a very young man. As we read it, we see clearly that the eighteen-year-old boy who wrote "Hans of Iceland" during a fever fit in 1821 had no experience of men or things, no experience of ideas, and that he was striving to divine all this. Every intellectual effort, be it drama, poem, or romance, must contain three ingredients - what the author has felt, what he has observed, and what he has divined. In a romance particularly, if it is to be a good one, there must be plenty of feeling and plenty of observation; and those things which are divined must be derived logically, simply, and with no solution of continuity, from those things which are observed and felt. If we apply this law to "Hans of Iceland," we shall readily grasp the chief defect of the book. There is but one thing felt in "Hans of Iceland," the young man's love; but one thing observed, the young girl's love.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Works of Victor Hugo: Hans of Iceland; Bug-Jargal; Claude Gueux Realizing, then, his inability to bring forth, either by talent or knowledge, by wings or by beak, as an ingenious Arabian verse has it, - a preface that would be interesting to his readers, the author has determined to ofler to them here nothing but a serious and candid account of the cor rections that have been made in this second edition. First of all he desires to say that the term second edi tion is decidedly out of place, and that the title of first edition is really applicable to this reprinting, inasmuch as the four unsymmetrical packages of black-and-white spotted grayish paper, which an indulgent public has been kind enough hitherto to accept as the four volumes of Hans of Ice land, have been so desecrated with typographical incongrui ties by a barbarous printer, that the unhappy author, in looking over his unrecognizable offspring, underwent contin ually the agony which a father might feel on recovering his child, mutilated and tattooed at the hands of the Iroquois of Lake Ontario.

Book Paratexts

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gerard Genette
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1997-03-13
  • ISBN : 9780521424066
  • Pages : 460 pages

Download or read book Paratexts written by Gerard Genette and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-03-13 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paratexts are those liminal devices and conventions, both within and outside the book, that form part of the complex mediation between book, author, publisher and reader: titles, forewords, epigraphs and publishers' jacket copy are part of a book's private and public history. In this first English translation of Paratexts, Gérard Genette shows how the special pragmatic status of paratextual declaration requires a carefully calibrated analysis of their illocutionary force. With clarity, precision and an extraordinary range of reference, Paratexts constitutes an encyclopedic survey of the customs and institutions as revealed in the borderlands of the text. Genette presents a global view of these liminal mediations and the logic of their relation to the reading public by studying each element as a literary function. Richard Macksey's foreword describes how the poetics of paratexts interact with more general questions of literature as a cultural institution, and situates Gennet's work in contemporary literary theory.

Book Powers of Darkness

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bram Stoker
  • Publisher : Abrams
  • Release : 2017-02-07
  • ISBN : 1468313371
  • Pages : 487 pages

Download or read book Powers of Darkness written by Bram Stoker and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powers of Darkness is an incredible literary discovery: In 1900, Icelandic publisher and writer Valdimar à?smundsson set out to translate Bram Stoker’s world-famous 1897 novel Dracula. Called Makt Myrkranna (literally, “Powers of Darkness†?), this Icelandic edition included an original preface written by Stoker himself. Makt Myrkranna was published in Iceland in 1901 but remained undiscovered outside of the country until 1986, when Dracula scholarship was astonished by the discovery of Stoker’s preface to the book. However, no one looked beyond the preface and deeper into à?smundsson’s story.In 2014, literary researcher Hans de Roos dove into the full text of Makt Myrkranna, only to discover that à?smundsson hadn’t merely translated Dracula but had penned an entirely new version of the story, with all new characters and a totally re-worked plot. The resulting narrative is one that is shorter, punchier, more erotic, and perhaps even more suspenseful than Stoker’s Dracula. Incredibly, Makt Myrkranna has never been translated or even read outside of Iceland until now.Powers of Darkness presents the first ever translation into English of Stoker and à?smundsson’s Makt Myrkranna. With marginal annotations by de Roos providing readers with fascinating historical, cultural, and literary context; a foreword by Dacre Stoker, Bram Stoker’s great-grandnephew and bestselling author; and an afterword by Dracula scholar John Edgar Browning, Powers of Darkness will amaze and entertain legions of fans of Gothic literature, horror, and vampire fiction.
