Edith Nesbit
¥8.09
Novel for children. According to Wikipedia: "Edith Nesbit (married name Edith Bland; 15 August 1858 – 4 May 1924) was an English author and poet whose children's works were published under the name of E. Nesbit. She wrote or collaborated on over 60 books of fiction for children, several of which have been adapted for film and television. She was also a political activist and co-founded the Fabian Society, a precursor to the modern Labour Party.... Nesbit published approximately 40 books for children, both novels and collections of stories. Collaborating with others, she published almost as many more. According to her biographer Julia Briggs, Nesbit was "the first modern writer for children": "(Nesbit) helped to reverse the great tradition of children's literature inaugurated by [Lewis] Carroll, [George] MacDonald and Kenneth Grahame, in turning away from their secondary worlds to the tough truths to be won from encounters with things-as-they-are, previously the province of adult novels." Briggs also credits Nesbit with having invented the children's adventure story. Among Nesbit's best-known books are The Story of the Treasure Seekers (1898) and The Wouldbegoods (1899), which both recount stories about the Bastables, a middle class family that has fallen on relatively hard times. Her children's writing also included numerous plays and collections of verse. She created an innovative body of work that combined realistic, contemporary children in real-world settings with magical objects and adventures and sometimes travel to fantastic worlds."

William Shakespeare

Bilingual, English and German. Shakespeare comedy in English with line numbers and translated to German. According to Wikipedia: "Measure for Measure is a play by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1603 or 1604. It was (and continues to be) classified as comedy, but its mood defies those expectations. As a result and for a variety of reasons, some critics have labelled it as one of Shakespeare's problem plays. Originally published in the First Folio of 1623 (where it was first labelled as a comedy), the play's first recorded performance was in 1604. The play deals with the issues of mercy, justice, and truth and their relationship to pride and humility: "Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall". Zweisprachig, Englisch und Deutsch. Shakespeare-Kom?die in Englisch mit Zeilennummern und ins Deutsche übersetzt. Laut Wikipedia ist "Measure for Measure" ein Stück von William Shakespeare, das 1603 oder 1604 geschrieben wurde. Es wurde (und wird weiterhin) als Kom?die klassifiziert, aber seine Stimmung widersetzt sich diesen Erwartungen Eine Vielzahl von Gründen wurde von einigen Kritikern als eines von Shakespeares Problemspielen bezeichnet.Erst im First Folio von 1623 ver?ffentlicht (wo es zuerst als Kom?die bezeichnet wurde), war die erste Aufnahme des Stücks 1604. Das Stück handelt von den Themen von Barmherzigkeit, Gerechtigkeit und Wahrheit und ihrer Beziehung zu Stolz und Demut: "Einige erheben sich aus Sünde, und manche fallen durch Tugend".
