Présentation Cambridge Pieces Format Broché
- Livre Critique littéraire
Résumé :
A sharp-edged mirror of Victorian life, Cambridge Pieces gathers Samuel Butler's sly observations into a compact, disarming collection. Witty, humane, and unsentimental, these pieces move from crisp humour sketches to pointed essays, tracing the manners, pretensions, and intellectual life of late nineteenth-century Britain. This volume offers more than entertainment...
Biographie:
English novelist and critic Samuel Butler is best known for his semi-autobiographical book The Way of All Flesh, which was first published in 1964 under the title Ernest Pontifex or The Way of All Flesh, and for his satirical utopian novel Erewhon (1872), which was published posthumously in 1903 after significant revisions. Both books are still in print after their original releases. In additional research, he looked at Italian art, evolution theory, and Christian orthodoxy. He also translated the Iliad and Odyssey into language that is still used today. Butler was born in the rectory in the Nottinghamshire village of Langar on December 4, 1835. Rev was his father. Thomas Butler is the son of Dr. Samuel Butler, who was the bishop of Lichfield after serving as the headmaster of Shrewsbury School. Dr. Butler came from a family of yeomen and was the son of a trader, but his academic prowess was noticed early on, and he was sent to Cambridge and Rugby, where he excelled. Thomas, his only son, wanted to join the Navy but gave in to pressure from his father and joined the Church of England instead, where he had a mediocre career compared to his father's....
Sommaire:
it is a compact map of Victorian Britain seen through Butler's clear-eyed intelligence. The humour ranges from razors of social satire to patient, insightful portraits of scholars, writers, and thinkers. Readers of satirical essays will recognise a lineage that mingles brisk social critique with reflective, occasionally musical prose. For Victorian literature students and antique book collectors alike, Cambridge Pieces presents a precise lens on a culture in conversation with itself, a companion for those who relish the era's sharp exchanges and humane curiosities. Historically significant as part of Butler's broader critique of manners and ideas, the book sits within a tradition of British social commentary that includes Bulwer Lytton's satirical voices. Its warmth and precision invite casual readers and scholars to revisit Victorian Britain with fresh eyes. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure for lovers of intellectual life essays, romance of the essay, and the enduring charm of late nineteenth-century Britain....
