Unfolding Mallarmé(1st Edition)
The Development of a Poetic Art
von Roger Pearson
Hardcover, 328 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1997 von Clarendon Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-815917-9, ISBN: 0-19-815917-X

"Unfolding Mallarmé provides a coherent account of Mallarmé's poetic developments from his earliest verse to his final masterpiece, "Un coup de Dés." A series of close readings demonstrate the intricate linguistic and formal play to be found in many of his major poems; and, in a detailed analysis of "Un coup de Dés," Pearson explores the "profound calculation" upon which Mallarmé's final, seemingly chaotic masterpiece is based."

Paperback, 156 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1996 von Scott Townsend Pub
ISBN-13: 978-1-878465-15-3, ISBN: 1-878465-15-5

"Race and heredity were accepted facts in Western science until Marxists and fellow travelers infiltrated Western academe and subverted objectivity on the subject. Yet notwithstanding the fact that contemporary scientists are influenced by fear that politically motivated criticism might affect their careers, and in some cases simply by the fear that their research might raise racial tensions, the evidence for inherited differences in bot ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-815880-6, ISBN: 0-19-815880-7

"Almost three hundred years after his birth in 1694, this is the first comprehensive study of Voltaire's contes philosophiques - the philosophical tales for which he is now best remembered and which include the masterpiece Candide. The Fables of Reason situates each of the twenty-six stories in its historical and intellectual context and offers new readings and approaches in the light of modern critical thinking. It rejects the traditio ..."

Stendhal's Violin
A Novelist and his Reader (Hardback)
von Roger Pearson
Hardcover, 312 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1992 von Oup Oxford
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-815851-6, ISBN: 0-19-815851-3

"This new study of Stendhal's novels takes its title from Stendhal's dictum 'Un roman est comme un archet, la caisse du violon qui rend les sons, c'est l'ame du lecteur.' Its central theme is the relationship between novelist and reader, as orchestrated in Armance, Le Rouge et le Noir, Lucien Leuwen and La Chartreuse de Parme. From the author's analyses of these novels it emerges that Stendhal plays upon the reader's reactions and makes ..."

The Charterhouse of Parma(Updated)
(The World's Classics)
von Margaret Mauldon, Henri Stendhal, Roger Pearson
Paperback, 560 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1997 von Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-283183-5, ISBN: 0-19-283183-6

"Officer, diplomat, spy, journalist, and intermittent genius, Marie Henri Beyle employed more than 200 aliases in the course of his crowded career. His most famous moniker, however, was Stendhal, which he affixed to his greatest work, The Charterhouse of Parma. The author spent a mere seven weeks cranking out this marvel in 1838, setting the fictional equivalent of a land-speed record. To be honest, there are occasional signs of haste, d ..."






The Masterpiece(Updated)
(The World's Classics)
von Thomas Walton, Roger Pearson, Emile Zola, Mile Zola
Paperback, 464 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1993 von Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-282906-1, ISBN: 0-19-282906-8

"The Masterpiece is the tragic story of Claude Lantier, an ambitious and talented young artist who has come from the provinces to conquer Paris but is conquered instead by the flaws of his own genius. Set in the 1860s and 1870s, it is the most autobiographical of the twenty novels in Zola's Rougon-Macquart series. It provides a unique insight into Zola's career as a writer and his relationship with Cezanne, a friend since their schoold ..."

The Application of Science to the Solution of Human Problems
von William B. Shockley, Roger Pearson, Arthur R. Jensen, Charles Conant Josey
Paperback, 292 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1992 von Scott Townsend Pub
ISBN-13: 978-1-878465-03-0, ISBN: 1-878465-03-1

"Pearson has collected William Shockley's writings about his theories of hereditary human intelligence and his belief that the less intelligent were overproducing and the more intelligent, underproducing. Shockley urged that studies be made of heredity, intellectual and demographic trends in order to ensure high intelligence levels."






Beast in Man - Zola, Emile - Paperback(Updated)
von Emile Zola, Roger Pearson, Mile Zola
Paperback, 424 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1996 von Oxford Paperbacks
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-282261-1, ISBN: 0-19-282261-6

""La bete humaine" (1890), the 17th novel in the Rougon-Macquart series, is one of Zola's most violent and explicit works. On one level a tale of murder, passion, and possession, it is also a compassionate study of individuals derailed by atavistic forces beyond their control. This new translation captures Zola's fast-paced yet deliberately dispassionate style, while the introduction and detailed notes place the novel in its social, hist ..."






Candide and Other Stories
(Everyman's Library Classics & Contemporary Classics)
von Roger Pearson, Roger Voltaire/ Pearson, Francois M. Voltaire
Hardcover, 376 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1992 von Everyman's Library
ISBN-13: 978-0-679-41746-0, ISBN: 0-679-41746-X

" Candide is the story of a gentle man who, though pummeled and slapped in every direction by fate, clings desperately to the belief that he lives in "the best of all possible worlds." On the surface a witty, bantering tale, this eighteenth-century classic is actually a savage, satiric thrust at the philosophical optimism that proclaims that all disaster and human suffering is part of a benevolent cosmic plan. Fast, funny, often outrageo ..."






Stendhal(1st Edition)
"The Red and the Black" and "The Charterhouse of Parma" (Modern Literatures In Perspective)
von Roger Pearson
Paperback, 256 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1994 von Routledge
ISBN-13: 978-0-582-09616-5, ISBN: 0-582-09616-2

"Both critic and writer, Stendhal has now become established as one of realism's founding fathers. Dr Pearson's book maps out, for the first time, the critical reception of Stendhal's two most widely read novels, The Red and the Black and The Charterhouse of Parma since their publication in 1830 and 1839 respectively. In part one he provides generous samples of the most important nineteenth-century responses to the novels, almost all of ..."
