Book Description
Catharine Parr Strickland Traill's 'The Tell-Tale: An Original Collection of Moral and Amusing Stories' is a captivating work that combines moral lessons with entertaining narratives. This collection of stories is written in a straightforward and engaging style, making it accessible to readers of all ages. Each tale offers a valuable lesson while also providing entertainment, making it a valuable addition to the literary landscape of the time. Traill's stories reflect the societal values and norms of the Victorian era, offering a glimpse into the moral framework of the time. The language is rich and descriptive, drawing readers into the lives of the characters and the lessons they learn. Catharine Parr Strickland Traill, a Canadian author and pioneer, drew on her own experiences to write 'The Tell-Tale'. Her deep understanding of human nature and her keen observations of society are reflected in the stories she tells. Traill's background as a settler in the Canadian wilderness adds depth and authenticity to her storytelling, making her work both relatable and insightful. I highly recommend 'The Tell-Tale: An Original Collection of Moral and Amusing Stories' to readers who enjoy engaging narratives that also offer valuable lessons. Traill's work is a testament to the power of storytelling in shaping moral values and entertaining readers at the same time.

Customised Books in Early Modern Europe and the Americas, 1400–1700
Author: Christopher D. Fletcher
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900468056X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 817
Book Description
Customised Books in Early Modern Europe and the Americas, 1400‒1700 examines the form, function, and meaning of alterations made by users to the physical structure of their book, through insertion or interpolation, subtraction or deletion, adjustments in the ordering of folios or quires, amendments of image or text. Although our primary interest is in printed books and print series bound like books, we also consider selected manuscripts since meaningful alterations made to incunabula and early printed books often followed the patterns such changes took in late fourteenth- and fifteenth-century codices. Throughout Customised Books the emphasis falls on the hermeneutic functions of the modifications made by makers and users to their manuscripts and books. Contributors: B. Boler Hunter, T. Cummins, A. Dlabačova, K.A.E. Enenkel, C.D. Fletcher, P.F. Gehl, P. Germano Leal, J. Kiliańczyk-Zięba, J. Koguciuk, A. van Leerdam, S. Leitch, S. McKeown, W.S. Melion, K. Michael, S. Midanik, B. Purkaple, J.
