DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe centennial of Andre Maurois's birth in 1885 has made this a most appropriate moment to produce a comprehensive work assessing his role as one of the leading literary figures in the Western world. Jack Kolbert's The Worlds of Andre Maurois draws heavily from his close personal association with Maurois as well as from painstaking analyses of each of Maurois' published works and of many of his unpublished and private papers. Maurois had the virtue of serving as a supreme communicator - a writer who could transform the most complex subject matter into readable, tidily organized, and above all lucid works of prose narrative. Unchallenged as the foremost biographer of 20th century literary figures, he also produced well-written and accurate histories of the three nations he knew best: France, England and the United States. For decades his novels and short stories enjoyed worldwide popularity. Climats may well be regarded as a novelistic classic and his science fiction continues to attract many readers. With a warm spirit of appreciation Jack Kolbert's monograph covers all of the major aspects of this fascinating literary figure: his human characteristics, his presence in French and international society, the persons who peopled his private and public worlds, his great biographies, novels, short stories, histories, essays, and articles of criticism. Kolbert's study on Maurois is probably the most comprehensive work on this subject to date.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBorn and brought up in Poland bilingually in French and Polish but living for most of his professional life in England and writing in English, Joseph Conrad was, from the start, as much a European writer as he was a British one and his work – from his earliest fictions through Heart of Darkness, Nostromo and The Secret Agent to his later novels– has repeatedly been the focal point of discussions about key issues of the modern age. With chapters written by leading international scholars, this book provides a wide-ranging survey of the reception, translation and publication history of Conrad's works across Europe. Covering reviews and critical discussion, and with some attention to adaptations in other media, these chapters situate Conrad's works in their social and political context. The book also includes bibliographies of key translations in each of the European countries covered and a timeline of Conrad's reception throughout the continent.
