Sinossi

In 'The Germ: Thoughts towards Nature in Poetry, Literature and Art,' readers are presented with an eclectic compilation eloquently capturing the spirit of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood's intellectual ethos. Manifested through a variety of texts, the book celebrates not only the beauty of the natural world but also examines its intricate relationship with art and literature. The anthology is marked by its romantic evocativeness and commitment to precise, vivid imagery, emblematic of the aesthetic and ideological reforms attempted by the 19th-century artistic movement. Within its pages, the work immortalizes the group's reflections and critiques on the conventional artistic standards of the time, offering a poignant exploration into how nature is mirrored in human creativity.nnThe collective of authors known as 'Various' spans the gamut of those associated with or influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite movement—a confluence of poets, writers, and artists who shared a common vision for reforming the arts. The constituents of this volume were impelled to contribute by the transformative artistic zeitgeist of the era, endeavoring to challenge the restrictive norms and delve into a renewed sense of truth and beauty. The decision by the contributors to meditate on nature through the prisms of poetry, prose, and visual arts mirrors their common aspiration for a purer, more profound connection to the world around them.nnThe curated selection encapsulated in 'The Germ' is an essential read for aficionados of Victorian literature and art, providing a window into the formative period of an influential cultural movement. It serves not only as a historical artifact but also a source of inspiration for contemporary creators and thinkers. Whether it be for its academic significance or the sheer pleasure of its literary and artistic compositions, this volume is a testament to the enduring legacy of the Pre-Raphaelites and a treasured contribution to the collective narrative of human reflection on nature.

    In this dark, atmospheric sequel to Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless classic, the strange case continues with the return of Dr. Jekyll . . . 
    Seven years after the death of Edward Hyde, a stylish gentleman shows up in foggy London claiming to be Dr. Henry Jekyll. Only Mr. Utterson, Jekyll's faithful lawyer and confidant, knows that he must be an impostor―because Jekyll was Hyde. 
    But as the man goes about charming Jekyll's friends and reclaiming the estate, and as the bodies of potential challengers start piling up, Utterson is left fearing for his life . . . and questioning his own sanity. 
    This brilliantly imagined and beautifully written sequel to one of literature's greatest masterpieces perfectly complements, as well as subverts, Stevenson's gothic classic. And where the original was concerned with the duality of man, the sequel deals with the possibility of identity theft of the most audacious kind. Constantly threading on the blurred lines between reality and fantasy, madness and reason, self-serving delusions and brutal truths, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Seek honors the original Stevenson with a thrilling new conclusion.
