Delphi Complete Works of Geoffrey of Monmouth (Illustrated) by Geoffrey of Monmouth Pdf

The twelfth century chronicler Geoffrey of Monmouth was the author of one of the most famous and influential works of the Middle Ages. ‘History of the Kings of Britain’ brought the figures of Arthur and Merlin into European literature, ensuring a popularity that continues to this day. It relates the purported history of Britain, from its first settlement by Brutus of Troy to the death of Cadwaladr in the seventh century. It also covers Caesar’s invasions of Britain, Kings Leir and Cymbeline and one of the earliest developed narratives of the fabled King Arthur. Denounced from the first by sober historians, this fictional history still exerted an enormous influence on the course of English literature.

The Travels of Marco Polo (Illustrated) by Marco Polo Pdf

The Venetian adventurer Marco Polo traveled from Europe to Asia in the late thirteenth century, as immortalised in his seminal work of travel literature. It describes Polo’s assorted travels throughout Asia and his experiences in the sumptuous court of Kublai Khan. Composed at a time when very little was known about the Far East, Polo’s account opened new vistas to the European mind, allowing Western horizons to expand. His description of Japan set a definite goal for Christopher Columbus in his journey of 1492, while Polo’s detailed discoveries of spices encouraged Western merchants to seek new sources and break trading monopolies. The wealth of geographic information recorded by Polo was widely used in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, fuelling an era of great European discoveries. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This eBook presents Marco Polo’s complete text, with illustrations, an informative introduction and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Delphi Complete Poetical Works of Omar Khayyam (Illustrated) by Omar Khayyam Pdf

An eleventh century Persian mathematician and astronomer, Omar Khayyam is renowned in his own country for his scientific achievements, though he is chiefly known to English-speaking readers through Edward FitzGerald’s 1859 translation of ‘The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám’. A form of verse complete in four lines, employing a rhyme scheme, the ‘quatrain’ is close in style and spirit to the epigram. Each quatrain forms a complete poem in itself, as part of a continuous elegy with intellectual unity and consistency. Although they are extremely free translations, FitzGerald’s ingenious work exerts a compelling verve and succinctness. Having flourished a thousand years ago, Omar Khayyam can be seen as a kindred spirit to other poets that explore existential themes, while celebrating the beauty of the world. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents Khayyam’s collected poetical works, with related illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Khayyam’s life * Concise introduction to Khayyam’s life and poetry * Excellent formatting of the poems * Easily locate the quatrains you want to read * Multiple translations of the quatrains by four different poets * Includes FitzGerald’s 1st and 5th edition texts * The original Persian 1342 text, edited by Sadegh Hedayat * A special dual Persian-by-English text of the first 50 quatrains * Features a bonus biography — discover Khayyam’s medieval world * Ordering of texts into chronological order and genres CONTENTS: The Life and Poetry of Omar Khayyam Brief Introduction: Omar Khayyam Edward FitzGerald Translation, 1st Edition Text (1859) Edward FitzGerald Translation, 5th Edition Text (1889) E.
