Book excerpt: The Isles of Thieves were but a few miles distant. They had no cannon, their sails were tattered -- they'd scarcey survived the storm last night -- yet the captain spoke as calmly in passing sentence upon his men as though he were sitting in the utmost security upon a jury bench. "By whose directions were the sick thrown overboard?" he asked, turning his stern face toward the crew. "The doctor ordered it," replied an old seaman. "You, Scudamore?" inquired the captain, wheeling round to look a tall thin man in the face. "You gave the order yourself, Captain Rolls," replied the surgeon, as if the subject under discussion were some very noble deed, which he declined to acknowledge merely from exaggerated modesty. "When the ship sprung a leak, you commanded that all the superfluous ballast should be thrown overboard.

Book The Day of Wrath   Maurus Jokai

Download or read book The Day of Wrath Maurus Jokai written by Maurus Jókai and published by . This book was released on 2010-02-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A passage from the book..."Szomoru Napok" was written in the darkest days of Maurus Jokai's life, and reflects the depression of a naturally generous and sanguine nature bowed down, for a time, beneath an almost unendurable load of unmerited misfortune. The story was written shortly after the collapse of the Magyar Revolution of 1848-49, when Hungary lay crushed and bleeding under the heel of triumphant Austria and her Russian ally; when, deprived of all her ancient political rights and liberties, she had been handed over to the domination of the stranger, and saw her best and noblest sons either voluntary exiles, or suspected rebels under police surveillance. Jokai also was in the category of the proscribed. He had played a conspicuous part in the Revolution; he had served his country with both pen and sword; and, now that the bloody struggle was over, and the last Honved army had surrendered to the Russians, Jokai, disillusioned and broken-hearted, was left to piece together again as best he might, the shattered fragments of a ruined career. No wonder, then, if to the author of "Szomoru Napok," the whole world seemed out of joint. The book itself is, primarily, a tale of suffering, crime, and punishment; but it is also a bitter satire on the crying abuses and anomalies due to the semi-feudal condition of things which had prevailed in Hungary for centuries, the reformation and correction of which had been the chief mission of the Liberal Party in Hungary to which Jokai belonged. The brutal ignorance of the common people, the criminal neglect of the gentry which made such ignorance possible, the imbecility of mere mob-rule, and the mischievousness of demagogic pedantry--these are the objects of the author's satiric lash.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Móric Jókay de Ásva known as Mór Jókai; (18 February 1825 - 5 May 1904), outside Hungary also known as Maurus Jokai or Mauritius Jókai, was a Hungarian novelist, dramatist and revolutionary. He was active participant and a leading personality in the outbreak of Hungarian Liberal Revolution of 1848 in Pest.

  • Author : Maurus Jokai
  • Publisher : Tutis Digital Pub
  • Release : 2008-05
  • ISBN : 9788132021674
  • Pages : 204 pages

Download or read book Manasseh written by Maurus Jokai and published by Tutis Digital Pub. This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mr Jkai, born Mric Jkay (1825-1904), outside Hungary also known as Maurus Jkai, was a Hungarian dramatist and novelist. On the re-establishment of the Hungarian constitution by the Composition of 1867, he took an active part in politics. As a constant supporter of the Tisza administration, not only in parliament, where he sat continuously for more than twenty years, but also as the editor of the government organ, Hon, founded by him in 1863, he became a power in the state, and, though he never took office himself, frequently extricated the government from difficult places. He was an archromantic, with an almost Oriental imagination, and humour of the purest, rarest description. He continued to devote most of his time to literature, and his productiveness after 1870 was stupendous, amounting to some hundreds of volumes. Stranger still, none of this work is slipshod, and the best of it deserves to endure. His works include: Dr. Dumany's Wife (1891), The Nameless Castle (1896), The Poor Plutocrats (1899), Halil the Pedlar: A Tale of Old Stambul (1901) and Manasseh: A Romance of Transylvania (1901).
