Résumé : Described by Hardy as a tale of "mystery, entanglement, surprise and moral obliquity", his first published novel violated the literary decorum of its day with blackmail, murder, and romance. It relates the story of Cytherea, a maid to the eccentric arch-intriguer Miss Aldclyffe, and the man she loves, Edward Springrove. Upon discovering that Edward is already engaged, Cytherea comes under the influence of Miss Aldclyffe's fascinating, manipulative steward, Manston. Published anonymously in 1871, Desperate Remedies already bears the unmistakable imprint of Hardy's genius.

far from the madding crowd / Thomas Hardy

Public ISBD Titre : far from the madding crowd Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Thomas Hardy, Auteur ; Suzanne Falck, Auteur ; Linda M. Shires, Auteur Editeur : Oxford world's classic Année de publication : 2008 Importance : 433p. Format : 24cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-19-953701-3 Note générale : 9780410623956 Langues : Anglais Mots-clés : novels Résumé : Far from the Madding Crowd has been called the “warmest and sunniest” of Thomas Hardy’s novels. In contrast to the inexorable tragedy of Tess of the D’Urbervilles or the nihilistic horror of Jude the Obscure, it indeed has a conventional happy ending. The narrative follows the fortunes of the spirited “woman-farmer” Bathsheba Everdene and her three suitors: the sturdy, steady shepherd Gabriel Oak; Sergeant Troy, a dangerous Don Juan in uniform; and the repressed gentleman farmer William Boldwood. Gabriel is ultimately rewarded for his constancy, and the book ends with his wedding to Bathsheba. far from the madding crowd [texte imprimé] / Thomas Hardy, Auteur ; Suzanne Falck, Auteur ; Linda M.

Tess of the D'Urbervilles / Thomas Hardy

Public ISBD Titre : Tess of the D'Urbervilles Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Thomas Hardy ; Tim Dolin Editeur : London [England] : Penguin Books Année de publication : 2003 Collection : Penguin classics Importance : lxviii, 517 p. Présentation : couv. ill. en coul. Format : 20 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-14-143959-4 Note générale : Includes updated Further reading. Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:429 Old english ; LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : Tess  Urbervilles  family  novel  poetic Index. décimale : 823/.8 Résumé : The novel is set in an impoverished rural England, Thomas Hardy's fictional Wessex, during the Long Depression of the 1870s. Tess is the oldest child of John and Joan Durbeyfield, uneducated peasants. However, John is given the impression by Parson Tringham that he may have noble blood, as "Durbeyfield" is a corruption of "D'Urberville", the surname of an extinct noble Norman family. Knowledge of this immediately goes to John's head.That same day, Tess participates in the village May Dance, where she first sees Angel Clare, youngest son of Reverend James Clare. Angel is on a walking tour with his two brothers, but stops to join the dance and partners several other girls. He notices Tess too late to dance with her, as he is already late in returning to his brothers. Tess feels slighted.Tess's father gets too drunk to drive a load of beehives to a neighbouring town that night, and so Tess undertakes the journey herself with her younger brother. However, she falls asleep at the reins, and the family's only horse, Prince, encounters a speeding wagon and is fatally wounded. Tess feels so guilty over Prince's death and the economic consequences for the family that she agrees, against her better judgement, to visit Mrs. d'Urberville, a rich widow in a rural mansion near the town of Trantridge, and "claim kin". She is unaware that in reality, Mrs. d'Urberville's husband Simon Stoke adopted the surname, even though he was unrelated to the real d'Urbervilles.Tess fails to meet Mrs. d'Urberville, but chances on her libertine son, Alec, who takes a fancy to Tess and secures her a position as poultry keeper on the estate. Although Tess tells her parents that she fears he might try to seduce her, they encourage her to accept the job, secretly hoping Alec might marry her. Tess dislikes Alec but endures his persistent unwanted attentions while earning enough to replace her family's horse. Despite his often cruel and manipulative behaviour, the threat that Alec presents to Tess's virtue is sometimes obscured for Tess by her inexperience and almost daily commonplace interactions with him.
