ISBN-13: 978-0-19-953691-7, ISBN: 0-19-953691-0

"The Masterpiece is the tragic story of Claude Lantier, an ambitious and talented young artist from the provinces who has come to conquer Paris and is conquered by the flaws in his own genius. While his boyhood friend Pierre Sandoz becomes a successful novelist, Claude's originality is mocked at the Salon and turns gradually into a doomed obsession with one great canvas. Life - in the form of his model and wife Christine and their deform ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-955551-2, ISBN: 0-19-955551-6

"`every heart imagines itself the first to thrill to a myriad sensations which once stirred the hearts of the earliest creatures and which will again stir the hearts of the last men and women to walk the earth' What is a life? How shall a storyteller conceive a life? What if art means pattern and life has none? How, then, can any story be true to life?

La Bête Humaine(Reprint)
(Oxford World's Classics)
von Émile Zola, Roger Pearson, Mile Zola
Paperback, 432 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2009 von Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-953866-9, ISBN: 0-19-953866-2

"Did possessing and killing amount to the same thing deep within the dark recesses of the human beast?La Bete humaine (1890), 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. Zola considered this his `most finely worked' novel, and in it he powerfully evokes life at the end of the Se ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-86189-659-9, ISBN: 1-86189-659-X

"At the age of fifty Stephane Mallarme (1842-98) spoke of his published work as very precise reference points on my mind's journey. In "Stephane Mallarme", Roger Pearson charts that journey for the first time, blending a biographical account of the poet's life with a detailed analysis of his evolving poetic theory and practice. A poet on this earth must be uniquely a poet', he declared at the age of twenty-two, and he duly lived a poet's ..."






The Red and the Black(1st Edition)
A Chronicle of the Nineteenth Century (Oxford World's Classics)
von Roger Pearson, Catherine Slater, Catherine Slater Stendhal
Paperback, 592 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2009 von Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-953925-3, ISBN: 0-19-953925-1

"In this vigorous and fast-moving novel of post-Napoleonic France, Julien Sorel's plans to reach the higher echelons of society through the priesthood are defelected by his realization that the attainment of happiness is of greater consequence than the pursuit of ambition. Subtitled `A Chronicle of 1830', Stendhal's depiction of a nation of smug hypocrites scandalized contemporary readers, who recognized themselves or their peers and f ..."






The Charterhouse of Parma(1st Edition)

Paperback, 560 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2009 von Oxford University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-19-955534-5, ISBN: 0-19-955534-6

"The Charterhouse of Parma (1839) is a compelling novel of passion and daring, of prisons and heroic escape, of political chicanery and sublime personal courage. Set at the beginning of the nineteenth century, amidst the golden landscapes of northern Italy, it traces the joyous but ill-starred amorous exploits of a handsome young aristocrat called Fabrice del Dongo, and of his incomparable aunt Gina, her suitor Prime Minister Mosca, and ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-59691-877-1, ISBN: 1-59691-877-2

"Enter François-Marie Arouet, once known as Zozo. Voltaire had remained in touch with the baron de Breteuil over the intervening years, seeking his help or influence on a number of occasions. The baron for his part was a great admirer of the young man's work—though quite evidently not of his eligibility as a husband. Indeed that thought would never have occurred to him. As to his daughter, she was not unlike Monsieur de Voltaire: sh ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-4088-2080-3, ISBN: 1-4088-2080-3

"His family nicknamed him Zozo: he later called himself Voltaire. While he believed in God Almighty, he none the less considered that there was still work to be done. 'God created man free,' he wrote at the age of seventythree: 'and that is what I have become.'1 This is the story of his extraordinary life, the story of a search for freedom. Zozo was probably a bastard. Like Candide, the hero of his most famous work. Officially littl ..."
