Little Detours by Susanne Kord Pdf

Both the letters, edited and censored by Runckel, and the plays, commissioned and edited by her husband, reveal a number of intriguing "detours" from the path of conventionality: biographical aberrations in her letters (her chagrined loyalty to her husband, her passionate "friendship" with Runckel) and poetological deviations from her husband's poetics expressed in her dramas."--BOOK JACKET.

Pietism in Petticoats and Other Comedies by Louise Adelgunde Victorie Gottsched Pdf

First English translation of Gottsched's five original comedies. Luise Adelgunde Gottsched (1713-1762), poet, essayist, translator, and playwright, was regarded during her lifetime as intellectually the most formidable woman in Germany. Together with her better-known husband, Johann C. Gottsched, she crusaded to reform the language and literary taste of the Germans. Frau Gottsched's most important contribution to German literature came in the form of her translations and original comedies in the French classical style. The present volume offers for the first time in English translation Luise Gottsched's five original comedies, including Pietism in Petticoats (1736). The targets of her biting wit are hypocritical religious fundamentalists, the gentry, middle-class social climbers, German francophiles, and pseudo-intellectuals. These witty satires make it obvious why Luise has come to be viewed as the mother of the modern German comedy.

Kingdom of the Grail by Judith Tarr Pdf

World Fantasy Award nominee and National Bestselling author of House of War creates a fantastic legend inspired by the epic poem The Song of Roland and the mythical history of Merlin. Centuries after the fall of Camelot and the disappearance of King Arthur, the wizard Merlin remains a prisoner in an enchanted forest. After years of isolation a visitor comes to him: the boy’s name is Roland. He is young and ardent, and though he is yet untested, Merlin can sense the magical power within him. Roland swears to free Merlin, unaware of the consequences such an oath carries. Roland has since become a knight and mighty warrior. But his mystical powers are untested and his mentor remains imprisoned. Then an old enemy of Merlin’s returns, seeking the very object that tore apart the Knights of the Round Table—the Holy Grail. Now, with the help of a beautiful Saracen healer and a magical sword, Roland must face his test, fulfill his oath, and find his destiny.
