本套书包括《白衣女人5册》和《月亮宝石5册》共10册。《白衣女人》本书为作者开创了写侦探小说的先河，也为英国文学另辟了一条蹊径。作品主要讲述了：青年画家哈特莱特与她的学生劳拉?弗尔利坠入情网，可是罗拉的父亲在生前已经为她寻了一门亲事。在罗拉的姐姐玛琳?哈克贝的建议下，哈特来离开了蒙里基庄园，到国外工作。罗拉只能遵从父亲的遗愿，嫁给风流倜傥的皮斯威尔?格莱德先生。然而，皮斯维尔因其父母没有结婚登记而没有继承权，他负债累累，一心想要得到罗拉小姐两万英镑的遗产。他和罗拉的姑父密谋，把与罗拉相像的白衣女子安妮?凯撒里克害死，对外谎称罗拉得病而死，并把罗拉当做白衣女子送回疯人院……《月亮宝石》被誉为部长和秀的现代侦探小说。是英国维多利亚时期小说家威尔基·柯林斯创作的长篇小说。该作写一颗钻石(月亮宝石)神秘失踪，后为探长克夫所侦破。作品情节惊险曲折，结局出人意外。故事是由一颗宝石引起的。相传，印度有一颗月亮宝石，它镶嵌在一座四只手的印度神的额头之上，由三个婆罗门守护。宝石的光泽随着月亮的变化而变化，神曾经预言，谁要是拿走了这颗宝石谁就会受到诅咒。十八世纪初，月亮宝石被抢，这颗价值连城的宝石辗转被传到了英国。正如预言所说，它的拥有者都离奇死去。后来，这颗宝石落到了英国军官司亨卡斯尔上校的手中。在他将此作为生日礼物赠送给外甥女雷茜尔后，宝石突然失踪，经过一番周折，案件终于真相大白，月亮宝石后又回到了月亮神的前额之上。作者在小说中大胆地披露了英国在印度犯下的滔天罪行，要求英国人以人道主义精神面对世界，其中还不失时机地表达了自己的愿望，表明自己希望英国不要成为被世界人民痛恨的国度，不要两手沾满无辜的老百姓们的鲜血。这部小说并没有对英国国内的政治给予直接的披露，而是通过数件沾满血腥的案件有力地抨击了英国上层社会的领导者。

George Eliot's novel The Mill on the Floss, orginally published in 1860 as three volumes. Maggie Tulliver is the protagonist and the story begins when she is 9 years old. Maggie Tulliver’s entire life has been spent in the shadow of Dorlcote Mill on the River Floss with her beloved older brother, Tom.The Mill on the Floss is the story of Maggie Tulliver’s search for love, and acceptance by her family and community, and of her need for intellectual and spiritual growth. Her relationship with her older brother Tom, and her romantic relationships with Philip Wakem and with Stephen Guest constitute the most significant narrative threads. Misunderstood Maggie Tulliver is torn. Her rebellious and passionate nature demands expression, while her provincial kin and community expect self-denial. Based closely on the author's own life, Maggie's story explores the conflicts of love and loyalty and the friction between desire and moral responsibility. A classic work of 19th century literature, "The Mill on the Floss" remains a popular and enduring example of George Eliot's impact on English literature.

In the early 1800s, John Astor made the fateful decision to make good on his long-held dream of establishing a fur-trading company in the Northwest United States. Astor later convinced Washington Irving, one of the most important figures in nineteenth-century American literature, to create a non-fiction account of the operation's origins. The result, Astoria, is a fascinating work of history. Astoria is a history book published in 1836 by Washington Irving. The full title being "Astoria: Or, Enterprise Beyond the Rocky Mountains". The book was commissioned by John Jacob Astor as an official history of his company's expedition to Oregon in 1810–1812. The book became a bestseller in 1836 and at the time was required reading in some schools. Astoria has been read as a vivid and fascinating history, comparable indeed to the finest of romances, but rooted in the rough and hardy life of trapping, hunting, and exploration.

本套书包括《基督山伯爵9册》和《三个火枪手6册》共15册。《基督山伯爵》The Count of Monte Cristo is an adventure novel by French author Alexandre Dumas (père). It is one of the author's most popular works completed in 1844. The story takes place in France, Italy, and islands in the Mediterranean during the historical events of 1815–1839: the era of the Bourbon Restoration through the reign of Louis-Philippe of France. It begins just before the Hundred Days period (when Napoleon returned to power after his exile). The historical setting is a fundamental element of the book, an adventure story primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness. It centres on a man who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune, and sets about getting revenge on those responsible for his imprisonment. However, his plans have devastating consequences for the innocent as well as the guilty. In addition, it is a story that involves romance, loyalty, betrayal, and selfishness, shown throughout the story as characters slowly reveal their true inner nature.《三个火枪手》A timeless tale of adventure, romance, intrigue, and revenge, "The Three Musketeers"is the captivating story .A historical romance, this novel tells of the adventures of the hot-headed young Gascon, d'Artagnan and his three companions Athos, Porthos and Aramis as they gallantly defend the Queen of France, using their wit and their swords.

D'Artagnan and the three Musketeers must also overcome the villainous machinations of Milady de Winter, whose lethal criminality threatens those in political power and the love of d'Artgnan for Constance Bonacieux. Dumas' classic story, first serialized in 1844, has enthralled readers with its fast-paced plot, endearing characters, and romantic ideals, immortalized by the motto" one for all, all for one.

本套书包括《艾格妮丝·格雷3册》和《威尔德菲尔庄园的房客6册》共9册。《艾格妮丝·格雷》Agnes Grey is the debut novel of English author Anne Bront? (writing under the pen name of Acton Bell), first published in December 1847, and republished in a second edition in 1850. The novel follows Agnes Grey, a governess, as she works within families of the English gentry. Scholarship and comments by Anne's sister Charlotte Bront? suggest the novel is largely based on Anne Bront?'s own experiences as a governess for five years. Agnes, her sister Mary, and their mother all try to keep expenses low and bring in extra money, but Agnes is frustrated that everyone treats her like a child. To prove herself and to earn money, she is determined to get a position as a governess. Eventually, she obtains a recommendation from a well-placed acquaintance, is offered a position, and secures her parents' permission. With some misgivings, she travels to Wellwood house to work for the Bloomfield family. The choice of central character allows Anne to deal with issues of oppression and abuse of women and governesses, isolation and ideas of empathy. An additional theme is the fair treatment of animals. Agnes Grey also mimics some of the stylistic approaches of bildungsromans, employing ideas of personal growth and coming to age, but representing a character who in fact does not gain in virtue.《威尔德菲尔庄园的房客》This work is the second and final novel by the English author Anne Bront?. It was first published in 1848 under the pseudonym Acton Bell. Probably the most shocking of the Bront?s' novels, it had an instant and phenomenal success, but after Anne's death her sister Charlotte prevented its re-publication. Most critics now consider The Tenant of Wildfell Hall to be one of the first feminist novels. The novel is framed as a series of letters from Gilbert Markham to his friend and brother-in-law about the events connected with the meeting of his wife. A mysterious young widow arrives at Wildfell Hall, an Elizabethan mansion which has been empty for many years, with her young son and a servant. She lives there in strict seclusion under the assumed name Helen Graham and soon finds herself the victim of local slander. Refusing to believe anything scandalous about her, Gilbert befriends Helen and discovers her past. In her diary, Helen depicts her husband's physical and moral decline through alcohol and her desperate attempts to save their son from his influence in the dissipated aristocratic society from which she ultimately flees. The depiction of marital strife and women's professional identification has also a strong moral message mitigated by the authors's belief in universal salvation.

The History of Pendennis: His Fortunes and Misfortunes, His Friends and His Greatest Enemy (1848–1850) is a novel by the English author William Makepeace Thackeray. The novel took two years for him to write. Set in 19th century London, England, this novel features a young English gentleman Arthur Pendennis born in the country who sets out to seek his place in life and society. The novel portrays his love affairs with the callous Blanche Amory and poor Fanny. Both of them marry other people, and Pendennis finally weds Laura Bell, his adopted sister, who had always loved him. The characters include the snobbish social hanger-on Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan. Miss Amory and Sir Francis Clavering are somewhat reminiscent of Becky Sharp and Sir Pitt from Vanity Fair. In line with other Thackeray's works, Pendennis offers an insightful and satiric picture of human character and aristocratic society. The masterful characterizations include the snobbish Major Pendennis and the tipsy Captain Costigan.

该作讲述1348年，意大利佛罗伦萨瘟疫流行，10名男女在乡村一所别墅里避难。他们终日游玩欢宴，每人每天讲一个故事，共住了10天讲了百个故事，这些故事批判天主教会，嘲笑教会传授黑暗和罪恶，赞美爱情是才华和高尚情操的源泉，谴责禁欲主义，无情暴露和鞭挞封建贵族的堕落和腐败，体现了人文主义思想。《十日谈》是欧洲文学史上部现实主义巨著；意大利近代评论家桑克提斯曾把《十日谈》与但丁的《神曲》并列，称之为“人曲”。

一百年前，美国作家薇拉·凯瑟（Willa Cather 1873-1947）发表了美国西部文学的经典之作《我的安东尼亚》，以饱含深情的笔墨描绘了19世纪末美国垦荒时代的自然景观与历史沧桑，以别具一格的艺术手法塑造了英勇顽强的拓荒者形象，她也因此成为垦荒时代的代言人。小说以叙述者吉姆·伯登的视角，讲述移民女孩安东尼亚的成长故事。小说结构匀称，情节简洁明快，文笔从容典雅，表达细腻，想象力丰富，具有抒情诗一般的品格。她打破传统线性叙事模式，摒弃第三人称全知视角，多角度塑造了一个立体化的女主人公形象。作者隐身于叙述者吉姆背后，将其崇尚的价值理念融入人物的生活经历中，例如安东尼亚，就寄寓了作家追求善良、勤劳、乐观、热爱自然的美好情愫。

《大河之战》就是这位英国前首相温斯顿·邱吉尔先生年轻时候所著的一本很著名的书，是关于英国与苏丹战争的历史内容，换言之，是邱吉尔先生亲历的英国重新征服苏丹过程的*手历史记述。该征服过程发生于1899年。温斯顿·邱吉尔先生记录了他作为一名英国军官在持续将近20年的苏丹马赫迪战争期间的经历。所谓“苏丹马赫迪战争”，是指为了反对英国殖民统治，哈利法·阿卜杜拉·穆罕默德领导反抗军，对抗由基奇纳勋爵领导的英国军队展的武装斗争。“马赫迪”，自称马赫迪·穆罕默德·艾哈迈德的继承人，因不满英国殖民当局、埃及封建王朝和苏丹封建主的重重压迫，被迫发动了这场反抗战争。《大河之战》是温斯顿·邱吉尔继《马拉坎德野战纪实》之后出版的第二本著作，本书出版时有上下两卷，总页码超过千页。后于1902年再版时被缩减为一卷。在书中，温斯顿·邱吉尔写道，他之所以报名参战，是因为像很多英国军官一样，他的初衷是希望通过亲自参加*前线的战斗，以获得军人必须拥有的*手经验，来发展自己未来的职业军人生涯。温斯顿·邱吉尔并不希望自己只是在军队里过于安稳，一帆风顺地度过。他那颗年轻的心，关注所有发生在身边的或遥远的地方的战争的情况。他渴望参与战争。

为什么要给自己的作品起名为看上去希腊语味道十足的“十日谈”—— Decameron呢？从书名上就可以看得出来，薄伽丘对希腊语超级热爱。这个词由两个希腊语单词元素组成：δ?κα= déka ("十"的意思)；?μ?ρα= hēméra ("天"之意思)。合二为一，就是“十天（里发生的故事）”的意思。至于“谈”，是中文翻译时另加上去，将“发生的故事”用“谈”来诠释。1348年，意大利的佛罗伦萨爆发了大瘟疫——黑死病。第天都有无数人死在家里、街头。大批尸体被运到城外。但运送者也会因此染病而死。短短数月，死亡人数达10万以上，昔日繁华的佛罗伦萨变成了一片又一片的大坟场。后来这场瘟疫席卷了整个欧洲，欧洲人口锐减一半以上。薄伽丘深刻地感受到了这场瘟疫带来的巨大影响。他也是以这场瘟疫为背景写下相关作品的*人。小说故事发生在一远离瘟疫的乡间别墅里，一共来了十个青年男女躲避瘟疫。大家约定好以讲故事发日子。每人每天讲一则故事，一天就产生出十个故事。《十日谈》里的故事大都是发生过的真人真事。有歌颂现世生活的，有赞美爱情的，有歌颂自由可贵的。同时，也有故事旨在揭露做官的凶残与暴虐，教会教士修女们的虚伪等。当然，其中还有故事讲诉了命运之力量对人的精神世界的操控，人的意志之力量对人的精神世界的操控。有故事还揭示人与人之间的欺诈与哄骗。其实，不难看出，薄伽丘的《十日谈》里除真人真事故事以外，还有一些故事是来自于历史事件、传说，甚至还参考了东方的某些民间故事，有些故事则感觉明显受《天方夜谭》的影响。作者将故事情节移植过来，然后冠以人文主义思想，再讲述给欧洲读者听。值得指出的是，该作品从头到尾被商业推销行为所能容忍的规范笼罩着。商业常见的小机灵，小把戏等小聪明被抬高到一个新的高度。恶意使坏、勾心斗角等行为被作者行了某种鞭笞。在中世纪的人们来看，将忠诚、孝心这些美德与商场上的恶意使坏和勾心斗角相比，后者是不可被受的。
