本书作为我社“经典英语文库”第15辑中的一种,精选由法国著名作家维克多·雨果的经典作品《九三年》。《九三年》是雨果创作的后一部长篇小说,首次出版于1874年2月。雨果在小说中塑造了旺代叛军首领朗德纳克侯爵及其侄孙、镇压叛乱的共和军司令郭文,以及郭文的家庭教师、公安委员会特派员西穆尔登这三个中心人物,围绕他们展了错综复杂的情节,描绘了资产阶级和封建势力在1793年行殊死搏斗的历史场面。对资产阶级和封建阶级展的生死搏斗的正确描写是这本小说的基本价值所在。雨果以深邃的社会历史眼光和磅礴雄伟的气魄,用如椽的巨笔,描绘了一幅资产阶级大革命的真实生动的历史画卷。小说以旺代叛乱与平定叛乱的斗争为背景,以三个孩子的命运为线索,描写了革命与反革命、共和与保王两党之间那场血与火的惨烈严酷的内战,再现了新旧两种制度那不以人的意志为转移的殊死较量,揭露了保王势力的凶残没落,歌颂了以国民公会为代表的新生革命政权,同时也表现了作者一贯的人道主义思想。

J·K· Rowling
¥40.00
If you've ever wondered why Squibs are never offered a place at Hogwarts, what happened when Vernon Dursley first met James Potter, or how Dumbledore and McGonagall formed their lifelong friendship, From the Wizarding Archive should go straight to the top of your reading list. Containing 80 articles and anecdotes written by J.K. Rowling for the original Pottermore website, Harry PotterTM fans everywhere are in for a treat. If there's one thing Harry Potter fans have in common (apart from impeccably good taste), it's questions... so many questions. From the simple details that perplex us all - was Professor Umbridge always that awful? Why don't wizards just use phones? - to the personal details that bring us closer to J.K. Rowling's writing process - from her least favourite school subject and its impact on Professor Snape's career, to the personal significance of King's Cross and why it's always where the Hogwarts Express departs - this is a veritable treasure trove of answers. With editorial writing linking and exploring the articles in greater depth than ever before, plus an exclusive foreword by Evanna Lynch, this is essential reading for any Harry Potter afficionado. These articles were originally featured on pottermore.com and are still free, and available to read in English, on the official Wizarding World website. Note: This eBook is also available as two separate volumes. The articles in Volume 2 were previously published as three Pottermore Presents eBooks. If you already own those, you might prefer to read From the Wizarding Archive: Volume 1 instead of the combined edition. Pottermore Limited will be donating author royalties to the Lumos Foundation on behalf of J.K. Rowling, expected to be equivalent to a minimum of ?1 (or the local currency equivalent) for each copy of From the Wizarding Archive sold. The Lumos Foundation is a registered charity in England and Wales with charity number 1112575.

¥16.99
本书作为我社“经典英语文库”第15辑中的一种,精选由法国著名作家维克多·雨果的作品《莎士比亚传》。这部“莎传”,又名《论莎士比亚》。这部书被视为“一部文艺评论专著”。实际是作者借分析莎翁表达自己的浪漫主义理想,作者是法国重要之浪漫主义大师,所以他认定莎翁也是这样的浪漫主义者。这是一代文豪用其“大心”去领悟另一代文豪的“大心”。这才是真正的“大手笔”,中文叫做“如缘巨笔”。透过书中汪洋恣肆、慧眼独具的文字,我们读到的不止是莎翁,更是整个的西洋文明,几千年传承而下之西洋人的“精神世界”。
