Beschreibung

In "Dalziels' Illustrated Goldsmith," Oliver Goldsmith offers a captivating compilation of his most celebrated works, adorned with exquisite illustrations that enhance the reader's experience. The volume includes not only his beloved poetry but also narratives that showcase Goldsmith's adeptness in weaving social commentary into engaging prose. Written in a lyrical style characterized by its warmth and humor, the book reflects the Enlightenment era's values while also illuminating the human condition through its exploration of themes such as nature, society, and the complexities of life. Oliver Goldsmith (1730-1774) was a novelist, playwright, and poet whose diverse background—from studying at Trinity College, Dublin, to his experiences as a physician and a wandering journalist—informed his multifaceted literary prowess. His works often mirrored the struggles of contemporary society, revealing his empathy for the common man and a deep concern for social issues. This rich tapestry of experiences undoubtedly contributed to the depth and relatability found throughout this illustrated collection. "Dalziels' Illustrated Goldsmith" is an essential read for lovers of classic literature, combining the beauty of poetic expression with artistic imagery to create a timeless tribute to Goldsmith's legacy. This book charms both scholars and casual readers, offering insights into 18th-century thought while remaining accessible and engaging.

    Anguish The double secret

    The words of others, as an unpleasant remark ("You’re not hardworking") or a medical diagnosis ("You’re bipolar"), have the power to plunge us into anguish whenever they show an image of ourselves that we do not recognize: "In a world where words become viruses, certain sentences can kill." 
    The reductive identity that is thus assigned to us creates the illusion that our life can be summed up by these few words, allowing others to exercise the tyrannical power of anxiety over us. 
    Max Dorra explains how this illusion, created temporarily by the gaze of others, is just a montage-effect of our memory—as in a movie—and that it is enough to understand the mechanisms of this illusion in order to free ourselves from it: "To become aware of the fact that one is held captive by a montage is to be freed from a false confinement."
    In virtuosic and sensitive language ("The affects—shapeless and promising, wonderful clouds"), the author journeys through music, painting and cinema, appealing to sociology, psychoanalysis and philosophy, while remaining firmly rooted in reality: "There are more things in a hospital elevator than in all of philosophy." 
    He shows us that trusting our imagination allows us to tame anxiety without fearing it, and understanding that "another montage is possible" allows us to go towards the other without losing ourselves.

    Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
     
    Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
     
    In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
     
    These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.
