This book introduces thirty-two key works of European literature in translation to ordinary readers. Ranging from Dante's Divine Comedy to Brecht's Threepenny Opera, Philip Gaskell takes a canon of recognised literary classics and introduces each work, setting it in the literary and historicalcontexts of its times. The selection of works cover the main genres of poetry, prose and drama, and the other authors included are Petrarch, Villon, Ronsard, Montaigne, Cervantes, Moliere, Voltaire, Rousseau, Goethe, Schiller, Pushkin, Lermontov, Balzac, Flaubert, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Turgenev,Tolstoy, Dostoievsky, Ibsen, Strindberg, Hamsun, Chekhov, Gorky, Zola, Fontane, Proust, Mann, Kafka, and Pirandello.The author's skills as critic and bibliographer are demonstrated in the practical guide to translations in and out of print, and the recommendations for further reading.There are four appendices to the book that examine issues and problems of translation giving examples side-by-side of differenttranslations for comparison; provide quotations from texts in their original languages; advise on the form and pronunciation of Russian names; and describe the value of money in the mid-to-late-nineteenth century. Aimed at those who want to explore European literature for themselves, this is anextremely readable and entertaining introductory guide.

Anna Gaskell is prominent among a generation of artists who emerged in the late 1990s and have redefined the landscape of contemporary art, building upon cinematic strategies pioneered a decade earlier by artists such as Cindy Sherman and Laurie Simmons. Gaskell and others of her generation have invented an entirely new discourse, one in which narrative is disrupted, lacking closure and connectivity. Gaskell goes further yet, creating bodies of work that appear to tell stories but confound one's ability to draw clear connections between the different images within a given series. In Half Life, a new project commissioned by The Menil Collection, Gaskell draws inspiration from stories like Rebecca, The Old Nurse, and The Turn of the Screw, to create an installation of video and photography that plumbs the dark recesses of the human psyche, embodying a sense of fear, isolation, and uncertainty. Accompanied by the first published biography and bibliography on the artist, as well as an interview and essay by Matthew Drutt, curator of the project, with contributions by Niall Mackenzie and Francis McKee.

Wordsworth Classics new Best of series enables you to buy a collection of the key works of the finest authors at an unbeatable price. Elizabeth Gaskell was an English novelist and short story writer during the Victorian era. Her novels offer meticulous portrayals of the various facets of nineteenth-century English society, but she took particular interest, and indeed care, in detailing the hardships of the lower-class which earned her great respect amongst her literary peers. Her most famous works include: Mary Barton; North and South and Wives and Daughters. This collection contains:- Cranford & Other Stories; Mary Barton; North and South; Wives and Daughters

This new study deals with the whole range of Gaskell's fiction, approaching her as a deeply poetic novelist and short-story writer. Among topics covered are women and the creation of the self, death and personal integrity, the status of words as utterance and the shape and meaning of individual lives. While seeing her as a product of her age, Wright transcends narrow categorisations of her work to read her 'whole' as a subtle exponent of the values of a humane realism.

As the author of "domestic" and "political" novels, Elizabeth Gaskell has a divided image. Patsy Stoneman's pioneering feminist study looks closely at the reason for this split, seeing it as the result of treating class and gender as separate issues, and offers a radical rereading by considering them in conjunction. Though her work displays little "rage and rebellion," Gaskell is shown to maintain an informed and steady resistance to aggressive authority, advocating the importance of female friendship, rational motherhood, and the power of speech as forces for social change.

When critics seek a defining term to describe Elizabeth Gaskell, charm seems the indispensable word. It carries praise with just that degree of condescension most often found in critical discourse. To be charming, after all, means to be pleasing, with the reservation that the pleasure is essentially indefinable and therefore inconsequential. When Gaskell is commended, and the critical tide is now turning in her favor, it is generally in language that could be used as a reference for a good domestic - honest, sanguine, and industrious. There have been few attempts to explore her narrative skills and aesthetic principles, to find the relationship between the novels and one of the most convincing biographies ever written. The tendentious could well argue that if Charlotte Brontë wrote Jane Eyre, Elizabeth Gaskell created Charlotte Brontë. Certainly Charlotte Brontë as the subject of fiction and popular opinion owes more to Gaskell than to any critical comment.
