Alice's adventures in Wonderland & Through the looking-glass / Lewis Carroll

Public ISBD Titre : Alice's adventures in Wonderland & Through the looking-glass Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lewis Carroll, Auteur ; John Tenniel, Illustrateur ; Michael Irwin, Préfacier, etc. Editeur : Londres [Royaume-Uni] : Wordsworth Editions Année de publication : 2001 Collection : Wordsworth classics. Importance : 288p. Présentation : ill. Format : 20cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85326-002-5 Note générale : Introduction and notes added 2001 Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : English fiction Résumé : With an Introduction and Notes by Michael Irwin, Professor of English Literature, University of Kent at Canterbury This selection of Carroll's works includes Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking-Glass, both containing the famous illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. No greater books for children have ever been written. The simple language, dreamlike atmosphere, and fantastical characters are as appealing to young readers today as ever they were. Meanwhile, however, these apparently simple stories have become recognised as adult masterpieces, and extraordinary experiments, years ahead of their time, in Modernism and Surrealism. Through wordplay, parody and logical and philosophical puzzles, Carroll engenders a variety of sub-texts, teasing, ominous or melancholy. For all the surface playfulness there is meaning everywhere. The author reveals himself in glimpses.

Mansfield Park / Jane Austen

Public ISBD Titre : Mansfield Park Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jane Austen, Auteur ; Ian Littlewood, Préfacier, etc. ; Hugh Thomson, Illustrateur Editeur : Londres [Royaume-Uni] : Wordsworth Editions Année de publication : 1992 Collection : Wordsworth classics. Importance : XV-384p. Présentation : ill.,couv.en coul Format : 20cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85326-032-2 Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:823 English fiction : novel ; LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : Young women-England-Fiction  Children of the rich-Fiction  Adoptees-Fiction Résumé : Adopted into the household of her uncle, Sir Thomas Bertram, Fanny Price grows up a meek outsider among her cousins in the unaccustomed elegance of Mansfield Park. Soon after Sir Thomas absents himself on estate business in Antigua (the family's investment in slavery and sugar is considered in the Introduction in a new, post-colonial light), Mary Crawford and her brother Henry arrive at Mansfield, bringing with them London glamour, and the seductive taste for flirtation and theatre that precipitates a crisis. While Mansfield Park appears in some ways to continue where Pride and Prejudice left off, it is, as Kathryn Sutherland shows in her illuminating Introduction, a much darker work, which challenges 'the very values (of tradition, stability, retirement and faithfulness) it appears to endorse'. This new edition provides an accurate text based, for the first time since its original publication, on the first edition of 1814.

Her thoughts and sensations on that one day, and the interior monologues of others whose lives are interwoven with hers gradually reveal the characters of the central protagonists. Clarissa's life is touched by tragedy as the events in her day run parallel to those of Septimus Warren Smith, whose madness escalates as his life draws toward inevitable suicide.

North and south / Elizabeth Gaskell

Public ISBD Titre : North and south Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Elizabeth Gaskell, Auteur ; Patsy Stoneman, Collaborateur Editeur : Londres [Royaume-Uni] : Wordsworth Editions Année de publication : 2002 Collection : Wordsworth classics. Importance : 417p. Format : 20cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85326-093-3 Langues : Anglais Catégories : LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:823 English fiction : novel ; LITTERATURE ET LANGUE ANGLAISE:828 English literature Mots-clés : English fiction  Social classes-England-History-19th century -Fiction  Mills and mill-work-Northern England-History-19th century-Fiction. Résumé : Set in the mid-19th century, and written from the author's first-hand experience, North and South follows the story of the heroine's movement from the tranquil but moribund ways of southern England to the vital but turbulent north. Elizabeth Gaskell's skilful narrative uses an unusual love story to show how personal and public lives were woven together in a newly industrial society. This is a tale of hard-won triumphs - of rational thought over prejudice and of humane care over blind deference to the market. Readers in the twenty-first century will find themselves absorbed as this Victorian novel traces the origins of problems and possibilities which are still challenging a hundred and fifty years later: the complex relationships, public and private, between men and women of different classes.
