Ann Radcliffe The Italian
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 14.72 € (+2.70 €)Among his associates no one loved him, many disliked him, and more feared him. \n\nFather Schedoni is enlisted by the imperious Marchesa di Vivaldi to prevent her son from marrying the beautiful Ellena. Schedoni has no scruples in kidnapping Ellena and in undertaking whatever villainy will further his own ends. His menacing presence dominates a gripping tale of love and betrayal, abduction and assassination, and incarceration in the dreadful dungeons of the Inquisition. Uncertainty and doubt lie everywhere, in Radcliffe's last and most unnerving novel. \n\nAnn Radcliffe defined the 'terror' genre of writing and helped to establish the Gothic novel, thrilling readers with her mysterious plots and eerie effects. In The Italian she rejects the rational certainties of the Enlightenment for a more ambiguous and unsettling account of what it is to be an individual - particularly a woman - in a culture haunted by history and dominated by institutional power. This new edition includes Radcliffe's important essay 'On the Supernatural in Poetry',\nin which she distinguishes terror writing from horror.

Paula Radcliffe Paula: My Story So Far
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 13.05 € (+2.70 €)Paula Radcliffe has managed to be both very successful in her field and incredibly popular with the Great British Public. She was the underdog for so long -- narrowly missing out on medals in the 1999 World Championships and the 2000 Sydney Olympics -- that fans longed to see her win. Paula's rosy manner hides a tough resolve to succeed and in 2002 her luck began to turn. She won gold medals at both the Commonwealth and European championships and started to grab the headlines, bringing Britain's focus back to athletics. Paula's bravery is not limited to the track, however. She has become a passionate spokesperson against drug cheats and, inspired by her own battle with the condition, she is widely admired for her patronage of asthma charities. And even though Athens in 2004 proved to be more Greek tragedy than triumph, her popularity remains undimmed. Her remarkable life story of highs and lows is fully chronicled in this fascinating and inspiring autobiography.

Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 14.25 € (+2.70 €)Considerato l'archetipo del romanzo gotico, \"I misteri di Udolpho\" fu pubblicato nel 1794, anno dell'ascesa e della caduta di Robespierre.

Solo dopo una convulsa serie di avvenimenti agghiaccianti Emily riesce a riacquistare la libertà e a ricongiungersi con il suo innamorato, Valancourt. L'introduzione al romanzo di Viola Papetti, oltre a definire il genere gotico, racconta come la \"debole mano\" di Ann Radcliffe sia riuscita a trasfigurare il castello di Udolpho in una perfetta e animata macchina del terrore.

Ann Radcliffe A Sicilian Romance
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 10.26 € (+2.70 €)A Sicilian Romance (1790) is a novel by Ann Radcliffe. Published anonymously, Radcliffe's second novel is a tragic story of love and murder set in the sublime landscape of the Sicilian coast. Considered an essential work of Gothic fiction, A Sicilian Romance is an early example of her prowess as a leading novelist of suspense and the supernatural. \"As I walked over the loose fragments of stone, [...] I recurred, by a natural association of ideas, to the times when these walls stood proudly in their original splendour, when the halls were the scenes of hospitality and festive magnificence, and when they resounded with the voices of those whom death had long since swept from the earth.\" A young tourist wanders through the ruins of an ancient castle. A local friar approaches and, noticing the foreigner's curiosity, reveals to him the story of the Mazzini family, whose misfortune it was to possess wealth and power at the expense of morality. Possessive and cruel, the Marquis Mazzini seeks to control his daughters' lives by forcing them to marry the men of his choosing. When Julia falls in love with an Italian count, he commands her to take the hand of the Duke de Luovo. Although she assents, Julia secretly plans to flee the castle with her lover, setting in motion a tale of terror and betrayal. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Ann Radcliffe's A Sicilian Romance is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Ann Radcliffe The Mysteries of Udolpho
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 11.87 € (+2.70 €)`Her present life appeared like the dream of a distempered imagination, or like one of those frightful fictions, in which the wild genius of the poets sometimes delighted. Rreflections brought only regret, and anticipation terror.' \n\nSuch is the state of mind in which Emily St. Aubuert - the orphaned heroine of Ann Radcliffe's 1794 gothic Classic, The Mysteries of Udolpho - finds herself after Count Montoni, her evil guardian, imprisions her in his gloomy medieval fortress in the Appenines. Terror is the order of the day inside the walls of Udolpho, as Emily struggles against Montoni's rapacious schemes and the threat of her own psychological disintegration. \n\nA best-seller in its day and a potent influence on Walpole, Poe, and other writers of eighteenth and nineteenth-century Gothic horror, The Mysteries of Udolpho remains one of the most important works in the history of European fiction. As the same time, with its dream-like plot and hallucinatory rendering of its characters' psychological states, it often seems strangely modern: `permanently avant-garde' in Terry Castle's words, and a profound and fascinating challenge to contemporary\nreaders. \n\nABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Timothy Radcliffe What is the Point of Being a Christian?
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 17.80 € (+2.70 €)Timothy Radcliffe is in demand the world over with Bishops, priests, lay people and above all young people. This new book is his response. Timothy Radcliffe is a charismatic spiritual leader and a rare bird. His talks and broadcasts always surprise. A man with strong liberal instincts, he has held high office in the Roman Catholic Church and has a profound respect for the authority and teaching charisma of his Church. He is constantly in demand as a speaker, lecturer, preacher and broadcaster and in this new volume he has assembled the best of the addresses he has given over the last three years. At times, he is encouraging liturgical reform at others encouraging local Bishops to stand up to Rome. With political sympathies to the left of centre, he shows himself in this new book to be passionately concerned with issues relating to environment, globalisation and the pastoral care of the marginalised and dispossessed. The constant freshness of his message has made this aristocratic Englishman a man for all people and he packs in audiences from Rome to Toronto, from Helsinki to Rio de Janeiro.\nShot through with humour, friendship and wisdom, the pages of this book outline a manner of living which is at once faithful to the teachings of Jesus and rooted in the tradition of the church and at the same time responsive to the turbulence of the modern world. He is a prophet for our times.

Ann Radcliffe Il romanzo della foresta. Ediz. integrale
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 18.52 € (+2.70 €)Una carrozza lanciata a tutta velocità nella notte termina la sua corsa tra le rovine di un'antica abbazia nel sud della Francia, nel folto di una foresta, dove un inconsueto gruppo di fuggitivi trova finalmente riparo. Pierre e Constance De la Motte, nobili decaduti, si nascondono dalla legge e dai creditori; la giovane Adeline, la loro misteriosa protetta, si è unita ai De la Motte lungo la strada, consegnata da un manipolo di banditi. Il sollievo per il nuovo rifugio dura fino al giorno in cui il proprietario di quei boschi, l'ambiguo marchese di Montalt, mette gli occhi sulla ragazza. Tra la scoperta di sinistre reliquie del passato, incubi ossessivi e l'eco di un crimine commesso tra le mura dell'abbazia, Adeline comincerà a credere che il suo protettore sia coinvolto nei piani del marchese. \"Il romanzo della foresta\" apparve con clamore nel 1791 e diventò il libro con cui tutti i grandi del XIX secolo letterario dovettero confrontarsi: fu d'ispirazione per Jane Austen, John Keats, Mary Shelley, Honoré de Balzac, E.A. Poe, Charles Dickens e Wilkie Collins. Un romanzo pioniere del genere gotico, che con la cura di Massimo Ferraris è qui proposto in una nuova traduzione, la prima integrale in italiano.
