The Age of Shakespeare
¥8.09
The book begins with a chapter on Marlowe: "The first great English poet was the father of English tragedy and the creator of English blank verse. Chaucer and Spenser were great writers and great men: they shared between them every gift which goes to the making of a poet except the one which alone can make a poet, in the proper sense of the word, great. Neither pathos nor humor nor fancy nor invention will suffice for that: no poet is great as a poet whom no one could ever pretend to recognize as sublime. Sublimity is the test of imagination as distinguished from invention or from fancy: and the first English poet whose powers can be called sublime was Christopher Marlowe."

According to Wikipedia: "Robert Louis (Balfour) Stevenson ( 1850 - 1894), was a Scottish novelist, poet, and travel writer, and a leading representative of Neo-romanticism in English literature. He was the man who "seemed to pick the right word up on the point of his pen, like a man playing spillikins", as G. K. Chesterton put it. He was also greatly admired by many authors, including Jorge Luis Borges, Ernest Hemingway, Rudyard Kipling, Vladimir Nabokov, and J. M. Barrie. Most modernist writers dismissed him, however, because he was popular and did not write within their definition of modernism. It is only recently that critics have begun to look beyond Stevenson's popularity and allow him a place in the canon."

La Legende des Siecles
¥8.09
Poème de livre classique, publié à l'origine en 1859. Le poème est en fran?ais; la préface est en anglais. Selon Wikipédia: ?La Légende des siècles est un recueil de poèmes de Victor Hugo, con?u comme une immense représentation de l'histoire et de l'évolution de l'humanité, écrite par intermittence entre 1855 et 1876, tandis que Victor Hugo exilé travaillait sur de nombreux autres projets. Des poèmes ont été publiés en trois séries en 1859, 1877 et 1883. Témoin d'un talent poétique inégalé dans lequel tout l'art de Hugo est évident, la Légende des Siècles est souvent considérée comme la seule véritable épopée fran?aise et, selon la formulation de Baudelaire, la seule ?popée moderne possible Le poète rêveur contemple le ?mur des siècles?, indistinct et terrible, sur lequel sont dessinées des scènes du passé, du présent et du futur, et où l'on peut voir toute la longue procession de l'humanité. de ces scènes, fugitivement per?u et entrecoupé de visions terrifiantes.Hugo ne cherchait ni l'exactitude historique ni l'exhaustivité, il se concentrait plut?t sur des figures obscures, habituelles ses propres inventions, qui incarnaient et symbolisaient leurs époques. En se proclamant dans la préface de la première série, ?c'est de l'histoire, espionnée à la porte de la légende?. Les poèmes, tour à tour lyriques, épiques et satiriques, forment une vision de l'expérience humaine, cherchant moins à résumer qu'à illustrer l'histoire de l'humanité, et à témoigner de son long voyage des ténèbres à la lumière. Wikipedia: "Victor-Marie Hugo (26 février 1802 - 22 mai 1885) était un poète, dramaturge, romancier, essayiste, artiste visuel, homme d'?tat, activiste des droits de l'homme et représentant du mouvement romantique en France. En France, la renommée littéraire de Hugo vient d'abord de sa poésie, mais repose aussi sur ses romans et ses réalisations dramatiques. "

His most famous paintings include Dedham Vale of 1802 and The Hay Wain of 1821.
