Lentala of the South Seas: The Romantic Tale of a Lost Colony【電子書籍】[ W. C. Morrow ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Lentala of the South Seas: The Romantic Tale of a Lost Colony【電子書籍】[ W. C. Morrow ]

<p>W. C. Morrow's "Lentala of the South Seas: The Romantic Tale of a Lost Colony" presents an evocative narrative steeped in adventure and romance, deftly exploring the complexities of human relationships against the backdrop of a mythical Polynesian paradise. The novel is rich with descriptive prose that captures the enchanting landscape and culture of the South Seas, while intertwining themes of exploration, love, and the consequences of colonialism. Morrow's use of allegorical elements and cultural references places the narrative within a broader discussion of the exoticism of the Pacific Islands, invoking late 19th-century attitudes towards imperialism and its romantic narratives through a lens of both wonder and critique. W. C. Morrow, whose literary career flourished during the late Victorian period, was deeply influenced by the burgeoning fascination with the South Seas, reflecting the era's blend of adventure and mystery. His background as a journalist and writer infused his fiction with a sense of realism and urgency, echoing contemporary societal anxieties about isolation and cultural dislocation. Morrow's own travels may have inspired the rich detail and authenticity found within the landscapes and characters of "Lentala." For readers yearning for a captivating tale that melds romance with sociopolitical inquiry, Morrow's novel is a significant contribution to the literature of the Pacific, making it a valuable read for those interested in colonial narratives and the human spirit's resilience. It invites reflection on lost cultures and the complex interplay of love amid the backdrop of civilization's encroachment.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

They needed an intelligent being made of the universe they were trapped in. A being that could aid them in returning to their own parallel universe they call the other side of creation. When Will wondered by they knew, at last, they had found the one being that could help them. Their plan had been a gamble. They had watched many humans come and go, but none showed the attributes that their mission required, that is, until Will Caylen wondered by.

Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things Enriched edition. Unveiling the Mysterious World of Japanese Spirits and Supernatural Tales【電子書籍】[ Lafcadio Hearn ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things Enriched edition. Unveiling the Mysterious World of Japanese Spirits and Supernatural Tales【電子書籍】[ Lafcadio Hearn ]

<p>In "Kwaidan: Stories and Studies of Strange Things," Lafcadio Hearn masterfully weaves together a collection of supernatural tales and folkloric studies that draw deeply from Japanese traditions and mythologies. Exhibiting a lyrical and evocative prose style, Hearn captures the essence of Japan's ghostly and obscure heritage, revealing not only eerie encounters but also the cultural significance behind each narrative. Through his observations and interpretations, he transports readers into a world where the supernatural intertwines with daily life, offering a profound exploration of existential themes that resonate through time and culture. Lafcadio Hearn, a Greek-born writer who embraced Japan wholeheartedly, dedicated much of his life to studying its customs, religion, and folklore. His unique perspective, as someone who experienced cultural dislocation and then found belonging in Japan, imbues "Kwaidan" with a sense of both wonder and reverence. Hearn's deep understanding of the Japanese psyche and aesthetics allows him to present these tales not just as stories, but as reflections of the human condition, steeped in rich cultural symbolism. I highly recommend "Kwaidan" to readers interested in the intersection of culture, folklore, and literature. Hearn's vivid storytelling provides a gateway to understanding the enigmatic and beautiful complexities of Japanese supernatural beliefs, making it an invaluable addition to both literary and cultural studies. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A comprehensive Introduction outlines these selected works' unifying features, themes, or stylistic evolutions. - A Historical Context section situates the works in their broader eraーsocial currents, cultural trends, and key events that underpin their creation. - A concise Synopsis (Selection) offers an accessible overview of the included texts, helping readers navigate plotlines and main ideas without revealing critical twists. - A unified Analysis examines recurring motifs and stylistic hallmarks across the collection, tying the stories together while spotlighting the different work's strengths. - Reflection questions inspire deeper contemplation of the author's overarching message, inviting readers to draw connections among different texts and relate them to modern contexts. - Lastly, our handーpicked Memorable Quotes distill pivotal lines and turning points, serving as touchstones for the collection's central themes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym Illustrated Edition【電子書籍】[ Edgar Allan Poe ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym Illustrated Edition【電子書籍】[ Edgar Allan Poe ]

<p>In Edgar Allan Poe's only novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, the reader is immersed in a harrowing tale of adventure and survival at sea. Set against the backdrop of the 19th century maritime exploration, the book masterfully blends elements of gothic fiction with psychological terror and philosophical inquiry. As Pym embarks on a tumultuous journey involving shipwrecks, cannibals, and an unsettling descent into the unknown, Poe's trademark style emerges: rich, atmospheric prose that captures both the external perils and internal conflicts of the protagonist. The novel also serves as a precursor to modern adventure and horror narratives, showcasing Poe's exploratory themes of existential dread and the sublime, while offering biting social commentary on contemporary society's fears and anxieties regarding the vast, uncharted territories of both land and spirit. Edgar Allan Poe, a pioneer in the American literary canon, drew inspiration from his own tumultuous life experiences, which included personal loss, financial struggles, and a deep fascination with the macabre. Born in 1809 and having faced adversity throughout his life, Poe's unique perspective informs his writing, particularly in The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym. His fascination with the unknown and the human psyche, influenced by Romanticism, found an ultimate expression in this novel, intertwining his existential musings with thrilling adventures. This novel is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the darker sides of human nature and the mysteries that engulf us. Poe's exploration of fear, isolation, and the unknown invites readers to confront their own thresholds of adventure, beckoning them into a world of existential inquiry and eerie wonder. Readers of gothic literature, adventure tales, and psychological thrillers will find Pym's journey unforgettable and profoundly reflective.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
