7,38 kr. Auch für die Tochter eines Dukes kann das Leben manchmal schwer sein: Obwohl die schöne Lady Jane sich vor Verehrern kaum retten kann, weist ihr Vater, der stolzeste Mann in England, alle zurück. Doch das Herz Lady Janes ist bereits vergeben – an den attraktiven und erfolgreichen Mr. Winston, der seinerseits von Jane hingerissen ist. Doch wie nun den sturen Vater überzeugen? Denn einen Adelstitel hat Mr. Winston leider nicht ... Eine leichtfüßige und amüsante Erzählung aus dem viktorianischen Großbritannien. Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897) war eine der erfolgreichsten Schriftstellerinnen im viktorianischen Großbritannen mit über 120 veröffentlichten Werken. In Schottland geboren heiratete sie ihren Cousin und zog mit ihm nach London, wo sie ihre schriftstellerische Karriere als Autorin populärer Liebesgeschichten und Romane begann. Nachdem ihr Mann verstarb, war es Margaret Oliphant die mit ihrem zunehmenden Erfolg als Schriftstellerin die große Familie ernährte. Zu ihren Lebzeiten ungemein populär, geriet sie anschließend in Vergessenheit und wurde als Autorin seichter Literatur belächelt. In jüngster Zeit findet sie jedoch zunehmend Beachtung in der Forschung und wird als wichtige feministische Autorin des 19. Jahrhunderts wiederentdeckt.

120,95 kr. Voici un petit roman qui est, à mon goût, une merveille. M. Henri Bremond a eu l'heureuse idée de traduire de l'anglais la Ville enchantée. Et qu'un tel esprit, à qui nous devons d'avoir mieux compris Newman et Fénelon, se soit plu à cette tâche effacée, voilà un signe, plus clair que toutes les préfaces, en faveur de ce petit livre. Pourtant, je ne puis m'empêcher d'y joindre mon témoignage et de dire à mes amis: Ãcoutez, recueillez cette note charmante et très haute, le son argentin d'une cloche. C'est l'accent qu'aujourd'hui beaucoup de nous désirent d'entendre...

88,95 kr. Margaret Oliphant was a 19th century Scottish writer of historical fiction and supernatural tales. Oliphant was a very prolific author, having written over 100 books throughout her career. This work is about Joan of Arc, one of the most famous women in history: a French folk legend, a Catholic saint, and a military heroine. Yet almost nothing is truly known about the Maid of Orleans besides her ultimate fate, being burned at the stake when she was still a teenager. The Hundred Years War between France and England was one of the great wars of the feudal ages, a conflict literally spanning a century in which an untold number of men on each side died. That makes it all more amazing that a teenaged peasant girl came to the front lines. Claiming God instructed her to save France from England, she convinced the uncrowned Charles to send her to the siege of Orleans, and she subsequently led the French army to a string of important victories that made it possible for Charles VII to be coronated as the King of France. Joan then exited the stage almost as quickly as she entered it, being captured by the Burgundians and handed over to the English to be put to death for heresy. Over the centuries, the memory of Joan of Arc has been firmly embedded in French lore, where she is still constantly invoked, and she remains a staple of world history and pop culture. While she is constantly portrayed in film and art, scholars debate the accuracy of historical accounts about her, and her legend and mythology hang above all of it.
