Book Description
The Roman historian Velleius Paterculus lived during the reigns of Augustus and Tiberius, serving as a military tribune and later as a cavalry officer and legatus in Germany and Pannonia. Written in a highly rhetorical style, his ‘Compendium of Roman History’ is a summary of Roman history from the mythical fall of Troy to AD 29.

He is generally trustworthy in his statements of individual facts, serving as a courtly annalist and providing a unique window into this important time of Roman history. Delphi’s Ancient Classics series provides eReaders with the wisdom of the Classical world, with both English translations and the original Latin texts. This comprehensive eBook presents Paterculus’ complete extant works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Delphi Complete Works of Jack Kerouac (Illustrated)
Author: Jack Kerouac
Publisher: Delphi Classics
ISBN: 1801701040
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 3339
Book Description
Jack Kerouac was an American novelist, poet and leader of the Beat movement. His iconic masterpiece ‘On the Road’ exacted a broad cultural influence, capturing the spirit of its time as no other work of the 20th century had done since ‘The Great Gatsby’. Kerouac’s insistence upon ‘First thought, best thought’ and his refusal to revise was controversial. He deemed revision as a form of literary lying, imposing a form farther away from the truth of the moment. His novels reveal a quest for pure, unadulterated language—the truth of the heart unobstructed by the lying of revision. His technique demonstrates an unusual writing style, neither haphazard nor sloppy, but systematic in the most-individualised sense. For the first time in publishing history, this eBook presents Kerouac’s complete fictional works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts appearing in digital print for the first time, informative introductions and bonus material. (Version 1)* Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Kerouac’s life and works * Concise introductions to the major texts * All 15 novels and novellas, with individual contents tables * Features rare novels appearing for the first time in digital publishing * Images of how the books were first published, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Excellent formatting of the texts * Rare poetry texts * Easily locate the poems you want to read * Includes Kerouac’s seminal non-fiction collection, ‘Lonesome Traveler’ * Ordering of texts into chronological order and genresPlease note: the poetry published after Kerouac’s death cannot appear in this edition, due to copyright restrictions.CONTENTS:The Novels The Town and the City (1950) On the Road (1957) The Dharma Bums (1958) Doctor Sax (1959) Maggie Cassidy (1959) Book of Dreams (1960) Big Sur (1962) Visions of Gerard (1963) Desolation Angels (1965) Vanity of Duluoz (1968) Visions of Cody (1972)The Novellas The Subterraneans (1958) Tristessa (1960) Satori in Paris (1966) Pic (1971)The Poetry Mexico City Blues (1959) The Scripture of the Golden Eternity (1960) Old Angel Midnight (1973)The Non-Fiction Lonesome Traveler (1960)Please visit www.delphiclassics.com to browse through our range of exciting titles or to purchase this eBook as a Parts Edition of individual eBooks
