Description wiki: The Prisoner of Zenda is an 1894 adventure novel by Anthony Hope, in which the King of Ruritania is drugged on the eve of his coronation and thus is unable to attend the ceremony. Political forces within the realm are such that, in order for the king to retain the crown, his coronation must proceed. Fortuitously, an English gentleman on holiday in Ruritania who resembles the monarch is persuaded to act as his political decoy in an effort to save the unstable political situation of the interregnum. A sequel, Rupert of Hentzau, was published in 1898 and is included in some editions of The Prisoner of Zenda. The popularity of the novels inspired the Ruritanian romance genre of literature, film, and theatre that features stories set in a fictional country, usually in Central or Eastern Europe,[1] for example Graustark from the novels of George Barr McCutcheon, and the neighbouring countries of Syldavia and Borduria in the Tintin comics.

Description Good Reads: Rudolph Rassendyls quiet life is interrupted by his unexpected and personal involvement in the affairs of Ruritania, whilst travelling through the town of Zenda, finding himself engaged in plans to rescue the imprisoned king

Description Penquin: Best known for his political fairy tale, The Prisoner of Zenda, which saw four major screen adaptations, including the acclaimed 1937 incarnation starring Ronald Colman, Anthony Hope was one of the few novelists to achieve wide popular and critical admiration during his lifetime. Regarded by many critics as the finest adventure story ever written and certainly one of the most popular The Prisoner of Zenda (1894) tells the story of Rudolf Rassendyl, a dashing English gentleman who bears an uncanny resemblance to the ruler of the fictional kingdom of Ruritania. Rassendyl masquerades as the king in order to save the country from a treacherous plot and secures the release of the wronged prisoner. In the process he wins the heart of the beautiful princess Flavia, but ultimately surrenders the crown and the hand of his beloved princess to the rightful ruler.

Description wiki: The Heart of Princess Osra is part of Anthony Hopes trilogy of novels set in the fictional country of Ruritania and which spawned the genre of Ruritanian romance. This collection of linked short stories is a prequel: it was written immediately after the success of The Prisoner of Zenda and was published in 1896, but is set in the 1730s, well over a century before the events of Zenda and its sequel, Rupert of Hentzau. The stories deal with the love life of Princess Osra, younger sister of Rudolf III, the shared ancestor of Rudolf Rassendyll, the English gentleman who acts as political decoy in The Prisoner of Zenda, and Rudolph V of the House of Elphberg, the absolute monarch of that Germanic kingdom.

Description Good Reads: In 1697, Charles Perrault published a collection of eight stories. The stories, including The Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Puss-in-Boots, and Little Red Riding Hood, are among the best-loved nursery tales ever. Complete with morals at their conclusions, these dramatic and witty stories tell of princes and princesses, fairies and monsters, and ordinary people who use their luck and common sense to vanquish their foes and achieve happiness. This complete edition of all eleven of Perraults classic tales includes a new translation by Neil Philip and Nicoletta Simborowski that captures Perraults sardonic tone and his sense of drama in modern English. An introduction and afterword provide biographical information on Perrault and set his tales in their folklore context.

Description wiki: Monday or Tuesday is a 1921 short story collection by Virginia Woolf published by The Hogarth Press. 1000 copies were printed with four full-page woodcuts by Vanessa Bell.[1] Leonard Woolf called it one of the worst printed books ever published because of the typographical mistakes in it.[2] Most mistakes were corrected for the US edition published by Harcourt Brace.[3] It contained eight stories:

Description Good Reads: One of the most distinguished critics and innovative authors of the twentieth century, Virginia Woolf published two novels before this collection appeared in 1921. However, it was these early stories that first earned her a reputation as a writer with “the liveliest imagination and most delicate style of her time.” Influenced by Joyce, Proust, and the theories of William James, Bergson, and Freud, she strove to write a new fiction that emphasized the continuous flow of consciousness, times passage as both a series of sequential moments and a longer flow of years and centuries, and the essential indefinability of character. Readers can discover these and other aspects of her influential style in the eight stories collected here, among them a delightful, feminist put-down of the male intellect in “A Society” and a brilliant and sensitive portrayal of nature in “Kew Gardens.” Also included are “An Unwritten Novel,” “The String Quartet,” “A Haunted House,” “Blue & Green,” “The Mark on the Wall,” and the title story. In recent years, Woolfs fiction, feminism, and high-minded sensibilities have earned her an ever-growing audience of readers. This splendid collection offers those readers not only the inestimable pleasures of the stories themselves, but an excellent entr e into the larger body of Woolfs work.

Description Original: Brit—A stylistically innovative volume of short stories from the groundbreaking author of Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and Orlando. First presented as one volume in 1921, Monday or Tuesday was the only collection of stories Virginia Woolf published in her lifetime. Written in her experimental, stream-of-consciousness style, these eight unconventional stories eschew traditional plot and character development in favor of interior thoughts, emotions, memories, and associations. From a heron s in-flight perceptions in Monday or Tuesday to a ghost couple searching for treasure in A Haunted House, from a meditation on color as a catalyst for imagination and emotional connections in Blue and Green to the invented stories of a narrator on a train observing a fellow passenger in An Unwritten Novel, Woolf s poetic explorations take readers in directions previously unexamined, revealing an intensity of feeling and depth of insight that would continue to characterize her later work. Michael Cunningham, author of the Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Hours, has said of Woolf: She was doing with language something like what Jimi Hendrix does with a guitar. Taken together, these lyrical and evocative stories create a rich mosaic of the artist s radically unique sensibility.

Description wiki: he Rising Tide of Color: The Threat Against White World-Supremacy (1920), by Lothrop Stoddard, is a book about racialism and geopolitics, which describes the collapse of white supremacy and colonialism because of the population growth among “people of color”, rising nationalism in colonized nations, and industrialization in China and Japan. To counter the perceived geopolitical threat, Stoddard advocated restricting non-white immigration into white-majority countries, by restricting Asian migration to Africa, and slowly giving independence to European colonies in Asia (including the Middle East). A noted eugenicist, Stoddard supported a separation of the “primary races” of the world and warned against miscegenation, the mixing of the races

Description Good Reads: A reprint of a 1920 classic surveying the world racial situation after World War I and warning of the coming non-White population explosion. “The world-wide struggle between the primary races of mankind…bids fair to be the fundamental problem of the 20th century, and…perhaps the future.” Lothrop Stoddard was regarded as an expert on demographics in his day. Stoddards arguments were once taken seriously by the American establishment and President Warren G. Harding publicly praised this book at a public speech on 26 October 1922. The introduction to this book was written by Madison Grant, Chairman of the New York Zoological Society, and Trustee of the American Museum of Natural History. A Harvard Ph.D in history, Lothrop Stoddard was the author of The Revolt Against Civilization, The French Revolution in San Domingo, and other works that played a key role in the enactment of Americas 1924 immigration act. Margaret Sanger appointed Lothrop Stoddard as a board member of the Birth Control League (the forerunner of Planned Parenthood). This work is important original source material for historians and scholarly researchers.

Additional Research: Racial divide in America is hinged upon the precarious relations between the two communities the dominant Whites American and the marginalised Black Americans. Behind every push-back against the Blacks, even after five decades of Civil Rights Movement, is an unshakeable belief in the idea White Supremacy. Read this book to understand why the Black Americans are indignant, angry and raring to dismantle the structures of epistemic racism. This book is adjusted for readability on all devices and follows the perceived threat of White Supremacists against the growing power of the “coloured people.” In the current scenarios it has assumed a historic significance in understanding the White mentality and their long-held fears

Description wiki: The Sorrows of Young Werther (German: Die Leiden des jungen Werthers) is a 1774 epistolary novel by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, which appeared as a revised edition in 1787. It was one of the main novels in the Sturm und Drang period in German literature, and influenced the later Romantic movement. Goethe, aged 24 at the time, finished Werther in five-and-a-half weeks of intensive writing in January March 1774.[1] It instantly placed him among the foremost international literary celebrities and was among the best known of his works

Description Good Reads: This is Goethes first novel, published in 1774. Written in diary form, it tells the tale of an unhappy, passionate young man hopelessly in love with Charlotte, the wife of a friend – a man who he alternately admires and detests. The Sorrows of Young Werther became an important part of the Sturm und Drang movement, and greatly influenced later Romanticism. The work is semi-autobiographical – in 1772, two years before the novel was published, Goethe had passed through a similar tempestuous period, when he lost his heart to Charlotte Buff, who was at that time engaged to his friend Johann Christian Kestner.

Description Penquin: A major work of German romanticism in a translation that is acknowledged as the definitive English language version. The Vintage Classics edition also includes NOVELLA, Goethe s poetic vision of an idyllic pastoral society.

Description Good Reads: This volume presents stories from Mrs. Spring Fragrance and uncollected stories and journalistic essays by the first published Asian North American fiction writer.

Description Penquin: n this rediscovered classic of linked short stories set in San Francisco s Chinatown, Sui Sin Far portrays Chinese immigrants as they fall in love, encounter racism, and wrestle with their new Americanized identities decades before writers like Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan. By turns tender and dramatic, Mrs. Spring Fragrance tells of the Chinese women and men as they confront prejudice and forced detention; choose to assimilate or stay true to their cultural heritage; meet both kind and predatory Americans; and find love, purpose, and understanding in their new home. These stories are windows into the lives of everyday people in an unforgiving city, who find solidarity and hope in the most unexpected places.

Additional Research: AMAZON) Mrs. Spring Fragrance was a popular short story collection by Sui Sin Far, pen name of Chinese-British-Canadian-American writer Edith Maude Eaton. The work is notable for being the earliest book of fiction published in the United States by an author of mixed Chinese and white descent. Although the stories in the collection were written in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, they were not compiled into a single book until 1912. The original publisher was A. C. McClurg and Company of Chicago. A new scholarly edition of the book, based on the McClurg edition, was released in October 2011 by Broadview Press. The stories are divided into two halves, “Mrs. Spring Fragrance” for adults, and “Tales of Chinese Children” for children. Set in Seattle and San Francisco, they reflect the struggles and joys in the daily lives of Chinese families in North America. Particularly poignant are the stories delineating the cultural conflicts of Eurasians and recent immigrants. In “In the Land of the Free”, Eaton shows the suffering inflicted by discriminatory immigration laws.

Description wiki: Mrs Dalloway (published on 14 May 1925[1]) is a novel by Virginia Woolf that details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway, a fictional high-society woman in post First World War England. It is one of Woolfs best-known novels. The working title of Mrs Dalloway was The Hours. The novel began as two short stories, “Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street” and the unfinished “The Prime Minister”. It describes Clarissas preparations for a party she will host in the evening, and the ensuing party. With an interior perspective, the story travels forward and back in time and in and out of the characters minds to construct an image of Clarissas life and of the inter-war social structure. In October 2005, Mrs Dalloway was included on Times list of the 100 best English-language novels written since Time debuted in 1923

Description Good Reads: Mrs. Dalloway is a novel by Virginia Woolf that details a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway in post-World War I England. Mrs Dalloway continues to be one of Woolf s best-known novels. Created from two short stories, Mrs Dalloway in Bond Street and the unfinished The Prime Minister, the novel s story is of Clarissa s preparations for a party of which she is to be hostess. With the interior perspective of the novel, the story travels forwards and back in time, and in and out of the characters minds, to construct a complete image of Clarissa s life and of the inter-war social structure.

Description Penquin: Mrs. Dalloway said she would buy the flowers herself. It s one of the most famous opening lines in literature, that of Virginia Woolf s beloved masterpiece of time, memory, and the city. In the wake of World War I and the 1918 flu pandemic, Clarissa Dalloway, elegant and vivacious, is preparing for a party and remembering those she once loved. In another part of London, Septimus Smith is suffering from shell-shock and on the brink of madness. Their days interweave and their lives converge as the party reaches its glittering climax. In a novel in which she perfects the interior monologue and recapitulates the life cycle in the hours of the day, from first light to the dark of night, Woolf achieves an uncanny simulacrum of consciousness, bringing past, present, and future together, and recording, impression by impression, minute by minute, the feel of life itself. Penguin Vitae loosely translated as Penguin of one s life is a deluxe hardcover series from Penguin Classics celebrating a dynamic and diverse landscape of classic fiction and nonfiction from seventy-five years of classics publishing. Penguin Vitae provides readers with beautifully designed classics that have shaped the course of their lives, and welcomes new readers to discover these literary gifts of personal inspiration, intellectual engagement, and creative originality.

Description wiki: The Woman in White is Wilkie Collinss fifth published novel, written in 1859. It is a mystery novel and falls under the genre of “sensation novels”. The story is an early example of detective fiction with protagonist Walter Hartright employing many of the sleuthing techniques of later private detectives. The use of multiple narrators (including nearly all the principal characters) draws on Collinss legal training and as he points out in his preamble: “the story here presented will be told by more than one pen, as the story of an offence against the laws is told in Court by more than one witness”. In 2003, Robert McCrum writing for The Observer listed The Woman in White number 23 in “the top 100 greatest novels of all time”.] and the novel was listed at number 77 on the BBCs survey The Big Read.

Description Good Reads: Wilkie Collins was the master of the early detective story. This volume brings together for the first time three classic novels from his most productive period. The Woman in White (1860) is a tale of mystery and mistaken identity told by its various characters in turn. From the moment when a lovely young woman surprises Walter Hartwright in moonlit north London, Collins keeps the reader in suspense until the entire mesh of secrets is unwoven.

Description Penquin: Generally considered the first English sensation novel, The Woman in White features the remarkable heroine Marian Halcombe and her sleuthing partner, drawing master Walter Hartright, pitted against the diabolical team of Count Fosco and Sir Percival Glyde. A gripping tale of murder, intrigue, madness, and mistaken identity, Collins s psychological thriller has never been out of print in the 140 years since its publication

Description wiki: “The Luck of Roaring Camp” is a short story by American author Bret Harte. It was first published in the August 1868 issue of the Overland Monthly and helped push Harte to international prominence. The story is about the birth of a baby boy in a 19th-century gold prospecting camp. The boys mother, Cherokee Sal, dies in childbirth, so the men of Roaring Camp must raise it themselves. Believing the child to be a good luck charm, the miners christen the boy Thomas Luck. Afterwards, they decide to refine their behavior and refrain from gambling and fighting. Roaring Camp was a real place. It was a goldmining settlement on the Mokelumne River in Amador County, California. It was home to forty-niners seeking gold in and around the river; it is now a privately owned tourist attraction.2] The storys flood theme may have been inspired by Californias Great Flood of 1862, which Harte witnessed.

Description Good Reads: In this short story by Bret Harte, first published in the August 1868 issue of Overland Monthly, a baby boy is born an orphan in a gold mining camp in California and raised by a grizzled bunch of miners. This story helped to put Bret Harte to international prominence as a writer, and contains a veritable cornucopia of descriptive words- a great tool for learning and expanding your literary horizons.

Description Penquin: Bret Harte was at the forefront of western American literature, paving the way for other writers, including Mark Twain.

Additional Research: amazon – There was commotion in Roaring Camp. It could not have been a fight, for in 1850 that was not novel enough to have called together the entire settlement. The ditches and claims were not only deserted, but Tuttles grocery had contributed its gamblers, who, it will be remembered, calmly continued their game the day that French Pete and Kanaka Joe shot each other to death over the bar in the front room. The whole camp was collected before a rude cabin on the outer edge of the clearing. Conversation was carried on in a low tone, but the name of a woman was frequently repeated. It was a name familiar enough in the camp, Cherokee Sal.

Description wiki: A Boys Will is a poetry collection by Robert Frost, and is the poets first commercially published book of poems. The book was first published in 1913 by David Nutt in London, with a dedication to Frosts wife, Elinor. Its first American edition would come two years later, in 1915, through Henry Holt and Company. Like much of Frosts work, the poems in A Boys Will thematically associate with rural life, nature, philosophy, and individuality, while also alluding to earlier poets including Emily Dickinson, Thomas Hardy, William Shakespeare, and William Wordsworth.[1]:?52? Despite the first section of poems having a theme of retreating from society, then, Frost does not retreat from his literary precursors and, instead, tries to find his place among them.[2]

Description Good Reads: ONE of my wishes is that those dark trees, So old and firm they scarcely show the breeze, Were not, as twere, the merest mask of gloom, But stretched away unto the edge of doom. I should not be withheld but that some day Into their vastness I should steal away, Fearless of ever finding open land, Or highway where the slow wheel ours the sand. I do not see why I should eer turn back, Or those should not set forth upon my track To overtake me, who should miss me here And long to know if still I held them dear. They would not find me changed from him they knew-Only more sure of all I thought was true.

Description wiki: The Upanishads (/??p?n????dz/;[1] Sanskrit: ??????? Upani?ad pronounced [??p?n???d?]) are late Vedic Sanskrit texts of Hindu philosophy which supplied the basis of later Hindu philosophy.[2][3][note 1][note 2] They are the most recent part of the Vedas, the oldest scriptures of Hinduism, and deal with meditation, philosophy, and ontological knowledge; other parts of the Vedas deal with mantras, benedictions, rituals, ceremonies, and sacrifices.[6][7][8] While among the most important literature in the history of Indian religions and culture, the Upanishads document a wide variety of “rites, incarnations, and esoteric knowledge”[9] departing from Vedic ritualism and interpreted in various ways in the later commentarial traditions. Of all Vedic literature, the Upanishads alone are widely known, and their diverse ideas, interpreted in various ways, informed the later traditions of Hinduism.[2][10] The Upanishads are commonly referred to as Ved?nta. Vedanta has been interpreted as the “last chapters, parts of the Veda” and alternatively as “object, the highest purpose of the Veda”.[11] The concepts of Brahman (ultimate reality) and ?tman (soul, self) are central ideas in all of the Upanishads,[12][13] and “know that you are the ?tman” is their thematic focus.[13][14] Along with the Bhagavad Gita and the Brahmasutra, the mukhya Upanishads (known collectively as the Prasthanatrayi)[15] provide a foundation for the several later schools of Vedanta, among them, two influential monistic schools of Hinduism

Description Good Reads: The Upanishads represent the loftiest heights of ancient Indo-Aryan thought and culture. They form the wisdom portion or Gnana-Kanda of the Vedas, as contrasted with the Karma-Kanda or sacrificial portion. In each of the four great Vedas known as Rik, Yajur, Sama and Atharva there is a large portion which deals predominantly with rituals and ceremonials, and which has for its aim to show man how by the path of right action he may prepare himself for higher attainment. Following this in each Veda is another portion called the Upanishad, which deals wholly with the essentials of philosophic discrimination and ultimate spiritual vision. For this reason the Upanishads are known as the Vedanta, that is, the end or final goal of wisdom (Veda, wisdom; anta, end).

Additional Research: Interviews of former slaves in their own words of lifestyles, work and relationships. Letting the reader know the struggles they faced as slaves and then as freed slaves with no education or ability to read or write. Review on GR: This is part of a series of interviews the United States government (under the WPA) conducted with former slaves in Alabama during The Great Depression. It s interesting to read the former slaves recollections and events they experienced or overhead during the slave years, and their general thoughts on the current world and society. Many, but not all, of the interviews were transcribed in dialect, so reading them is all the more special. It continues to fascinate me how many of them speak about how the youngsters of their current day don t appreciate what they have and that they are generally lazy (Some thoughts and comments such as these just don t change over the centuries, do they?), and that they had a better life under slavery since they had every need securely supplied on the plantation. The contemporary black and white photographs add greatly to this work of valuable history and research.
