Book Description
Pastoral poetry highlights the didactic relationship of older and younger shepherds--as rivals or patron and successor. Departing from conventional views of the pastoral genre as an Arcadian escape from urban sophistication, THE PIPES OF PAN follows the connecting thread in the cultures of Alexandria and Rome, revealing that Theocritus and Vergil applied pastoral metaphor to represent the poetic community.

Late Victorian Gothic Tales
Author: Roger Luckhurst
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199538875
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
'He was a man of fairly firm fibre, but there was something in this sudden, uncontrollable shriek of horror which chilled his blood and pringled in his skin. Coming in such a place and at such an hour, it brought a thousand fantastic possibilities into his head...' The Victorian fin de siècle: the era of Decadence, The Yellow Book, the New Woman, the scandalous Oscar Wilde, the Empire on which the sun never set. This heady brew was caught nowhere better than in the revival of the Gothic tale in the late Victorian age, where the undead walked and evil curses, foul murder, doomed inheritance and sexual menace played on the stretched nerves of the new mass readerships. This anthology collects together some of the most famous examples of the Gothic tale in the 1890s, with stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, Vernon Lee, Henry James and Arthur Machen, as well as some lesser known yet superbly chilling tales from the era. The introduction explores the many reasons for the Gothic revival, and how it spoke to the anxieties of the moment. ABOUT 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.
