Mary Shelley: Collected Tales and Stories with Original Engravings Tapa blanda - 1990

de Charles E. Robinson (Editor)

Información de la editorial

Passion. Peril. Imposture. Shipwreck. Alchemy. Transformation. This is the stuff of Mary Shelley's richly Romantic stories. Set against varying backdrops of medieval chivalry, the wars and revolutions of her age, and grandiose scenes of nature, her tales mark a high point in the Gothic storytelling art. Long out of print, these stories are made available once again in a meticulously annotated and corrected softcover edition.

Most of Mary Shelley's short narratives were published in The Keepsake (1823-57), the most enduring and popular of the nineteenth-century annual gift books. The fine original engravings that accompany the stories are all reproduced in this new edition. Within the constraints of space and illustration imposed by The Keepsake, Robinson notes in his introduction, Mary Shelley produced some of her most intense and incandescent writing.

Primera línea

IN AN INTRODUCTION to an edition of Mary Shelley's Tales and Stories in 1891, Richard Garnett observed that "in these little tales [Mary Shelley] is her perfect self, and the reader will find not only the entertainment of interesting fiction, but a fair picture of the mind...of a lonely, thwarted, misunderstood woman, who could seldom do herself justice, and whose precise place in the contemporary constellation of genius remains to be determined.
