Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few authors are as closely associated with English wit as Oscar Wilde: the sharp-witted dandy, always ready with a cutting remark. His brilliant conversational skills made him famous even before he began his literary career. The stories in this volume showcase his drastic humour and scathing social critique. Among them, »The Model Millionaire« upends social hierarchies, and in »The Canterville Ghost,« ancient traditions meet modern times in the form of a vulgar and unsentimental American family, creating problems for a ghost that has had it too easy for centuries. OSCAR WILDE, born in 1854 in Dublin, died in 1900 in Paris, was an Irish prose writer, playwright, essayist, and poet. Wilde's significance as a symbol for persecuted homosexuals around the world is immeasurable. Wilde himself was sentenced to prison and hard labour, his works were boycotted, theatrical productions were shut down, and he was publicly vilified.

Book Synopsis The Canterville Ghost (Annotated): with Original Illustrations by : Oscar Wilde
Download or read book The Canterville Ghost (Annotated): with Original Illustrations written by Oscar Wilde and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-14 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canterville Ghost was first published in 1887 in The Court and Society Review. The first part was published on February 23, with the second installment following on March 2. It was accompanied by illustrations. By 1887, Wilde had achieved a significant reputation as a poet, playwright, lecturer, and flamboyant public figure. Beginning around 1885, he had also become involved in the world of periodicals and magazines, initially by writing reviews and articles. This transition to a more stable form of income was important because Wilde now had a wife and two young children to support. The Canterville Ghost was the Wilde's first piece of short prose fiction to be published, but it was quickly followed by other tales and stories. By 1888, he had published his first short story collection, The Happy Prince and Other Tales. The Canterville Ghost was not included in this collection, but it did appear in Wilde's 1891 collection, Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories. Wilde wrote the story after spending months touring America as a lecturer and honing his observations on American culture. Wilde's story is not just one of his most anthologized works, but also one of his most adaptable. Sir Simon--the titular ghost--has been portrayed on screen by, among others, Charles Laughton, John Gielgud, and Patrick Stewart. Wilde's story has been adapted into at least three different operas in three different languages in addition to a stage musical, a graphic novel, a Bollywood film, and any number of very loose adaptations. The comedy, short length, and accessible writing style have also made it popular with young readers as an introduction to the short-story genre. Wilde was not the first writer to toy with the idea of a comedic ghost; previous examples include the ghost that haunts Ebenezer Scrooge in Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol and Ichabod Crane's nemesis in Sleepy Hollow. And even the Ghost of Christmas Past and the Headless Horseman were capable of inspiring shrieks as much as guffaws--none came anywhere close to inspiring more squeals of laughter than squeals of alarm in readers. So, in a very real sense, The Canterville Ghost serves as an ancestor for all horror-comedy to follow, from Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein to Ghostbusters to Shaun of the Dead.
Download or read book The Graphic Novel written by Jan Baetens and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides both students and scholars with a critical and historical introduction to the graphic novel. Jan Baetens and Hugo Frey explore this exciting form of visual and literary communication, showing readers how to situate and analyse graphic novels since their rise to prominence half a century ago. Several key questions are addressed: what is the graphic novel? How do we read graphic novels as narrative forms? Why is page design and publishing format so significant? What theories are developing to explain the genre? How is this form blurring the categories of high and popular literature? Why are graphic novelists nostalgic for the old comics? The authors address these and many other questions raised by the genre. Through their analysis of the works of many well-known graphic novelists - including Bechdel, Clowes, Spiegelman and Ware - Baetens and Frey offer significant insights for future teaching and research on the graphic novel.

Book excerpt: An Atlantis-like city from Celtic legend is the setting of The Daughters of Ys, a mythical graphic novel fantasy from National Book Award winner M. T. Anderson and artist Jo Rioux. Ys, city of wealth and wonder, has a history of dark secrets. Queen Malgven used magic to raise the great walls that keep Ys safe from the tumultuous sea. But after the queen's inexplicable death, her daughters drift apart. Rozenn, the heir to the throne, spends her time on the moors communing with wild animals, while Dahut, the youngest, enjoys the splendors of royal life and is eager to take part in palace intrigue. When Rozenn and Dahut's bond is irrevocably changed, the fate of Ys is sealed, exposing the monsters that lurk in plain view. M. T. Anderson and Jo Rioux reimagine this classic Breton folktale of love, loss, and rebirth, revealing the secrets that lie beneath the surface.
