Hardcover. Zustand: Used; Good. This is a wonderful copy of Under the Greenwood Tree or The Mellstock Quire.

This pleasant romance story concerns church musician Dick Dewey and his love for Fancy Day, the new schoolmistress, who?s beauty has attracted the eyes of several suitors.

Paperback. Zustand: Neu. 320 p., 18 cm Edith Wharton (1862-1937) entstammte der New Yorker Patrizierschicht. Als Kind verbrachte sie längere Zeit in Frankreich, Deutschland und Italien, so dass sie, wie sie später meinte, Europa 'unausrottbar im Blut' hatte. Sie genoss eine sorgfältige Erziehung, ihre frühen literarischen Neigungen wurden jedoch kaum gefördert; schriftstellerische Ambitionen ziemten sich für Töchter aus ihren Kreisen nicht. Edith Wharton übersiedelte nach einer schwierigen Ehe 1906 nach Paris. Sie widmete sich nun ganz ihrer dichterischen Aufgabe, schrieb Romane, Erzählungen, Reiseberichte, kulturhistorische Essays. Ihre Vielseitigkeit und ihr Erzähltalent wurden mehrfach geehrt: 1921 erhielt sie den Pulitzerpreis, 1923 verlieh ihr die Yale University als erster Frau die Ehrendoktorwürde; es folgten die Goldene Medaille des National Institute of Arts and Letters und die Aufnahme in die American Academy of Arts and Letters. Edith Wharton gehört zu den bedeutendsten Schriftstellerinnen Amerikas. ISBN 9780007368648 Der Spezialist für Bücher aus Siebenbürgen, dem Banat und Rumänien.

Paperback. Zustand: Neu. 252 S. Oscar Wilde, geb. 1854 in Dublin, studierte erst am Trinity College in Dublin, dann in Oxford, wo er sich mehr und mehr einem Ästhetizismus zuwandte, den er nicht nur in der Kunst, sondern auch im Leben zum Maß aller Dinge machte. 1884 heiratete er in London; zwei Söhne wurden geboren. In den folgenden Jahren entfremdete er sich zunehmend von seiner Frau und wurde sich wohl seiner homoerotischen Neigungen deutlicher bewusst. Gleichzeitig nahm sein Ruhm stetig zu; in rascher Folge entstanden Essays, sein einziger Roman 'Das Bildnis des Dorian Gray', die Märchen, Erzählungen und mehrere Theaterstücke. 1895 wurde er wegen seiner Liebesbeziehung zum jungen Lord Alfred Douglas in einen Prozess mit dessen Vater verwickelt, der ihm zum Verhängnis wurde: Wilde wurde zu Zwangsarbeit verurteilt und war nun gesellschaftlich, aber auch künstlerisch erledigt. 1897 aus seiner Einzelzelle entlassen, floh er nach Frankreich, unternahm noch einige Reisen und starb 1900 resigniert in Paris.
