As a child she was greatly influenced by the works of the illustrator Kate Greenaway, whom she assiduously copied in her formative years. Her principal influence, however, which she duly credited, was the artwork of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Cicely was also influenced by the huge popular interest in fairies which developed from the Victorian enthusiasm for fairy stories and was epitomised by the immense popularity of J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan in the early part of the 20th century. Published in 1923, Flower Fairies of the Spring was well received by a post-industrial, war-weary public who were charmed by her vision of hope and innocence, which seemed to evoke a less aggressively modern world.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4256881157,"sku":"","price":152.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/IMG_2112.JPG?v=1455104992"},{"product_id":"1976-rare-french-canadiana-book-quebec-etudes-francaises-on-jacques-ferron","title":"1976  - Études françaises [Ferron, Jacques]  -  Etudes francaises on Jacques FERRON","description":"\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSearch for other similar book from our bookseller friends!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/affiliates.abebooks.com\/9gyXQ\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Abebooks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/files\/45C13F61-09F0-24DB-8129ED74400DEC3A_medium.jpg?v=1552131068\" alt=\"\" width=\"156\" height=\"78\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\" style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e(English description)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e : Études françaises [Ferron, Jacques]  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitle \u003c\/b\u003e : Jacques Ferron \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage \u003c\/b\u003e : Text in French \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher \u003c\/b\u003e : Les Presses de l'Université de Montreal, Montreal, 1976.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize \u003c\/b\u003e : 9 \"X 5 \" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages \u003c\/b\u003e : 383 pages \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding \u003c\/b\u003e : Very good softcover binding (hinges fine, overall slightly worn and scuffed) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContent \u003c\/b\u003e : Very good content (bright, tight and clean) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe book \u003c\/b\u003e : Numéro consacré à Jacques Ferron (1921-1985).

When she termed her works contes de fées (fairy tales), she originated the term that is now generally used for the genre. Her most popular works were her fairy tales and adventure stories as told in Les Contes des Fees (Tales of fairies) and Contes Nouveaux, ou Les Fées à la Mode. Unlike the folk tales of the Grimm Brothers, who were born some 135 years later than d'Aulnoy, she told her stories in a more conversational style, as they might be told in salons. These stories were far from suitable for children and many English adaptations are very dissimilar to the original. \u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e(French description française)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuteur \u003c\/b\u003e : Aulnoy, Madame d' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitre \u003c\/b\u003e : Les Contes de Fées, Par madame D****.

Femme « d'esprit » et scandaleuse, elle est l'un des auteurs à l'origine du genre écrit du conte merveilleux. Là où d'autres tels que Charles Perrault travaillaient dans le sens du polissage, madame d'Aulnoy a insufflé un esprit subversif en usant d'allégories et de satires. Son travail littéraire est souvent rapproché de celui de Jean de La Fontaine pour sa critique masquée de la cour et de la société française du xviie siècle. Après le succès des Contes de ma mère l’Oye de Charles Perrault en 1697, Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy fait paraître les quatre volumes des Contes des fées, suivis des Contes nouveaux ou les Fées à la mode, respectivement parus en 1697 et 1698 et qui lui valent la célébrité. Comptant parmi les plus authentiques chefs-d’œuvre de la littérature féerique, ses contes l’Oiseau bleu, la Belle au cheveux d’or, Gracieuse et Percinet, le Prince lutin, la Biche au bois, la Chatte blanche, le Rameau d’or, Finette Cendron, le Nain jaune, la Grenouille bienfaisante, reflètent l’évolution d’un genre emprunté aux traditions populaires en un genre littéraire destiné au lectorat adulte de la société galante. Construits comme des aventures romanesques, où se découvre aisément l’influence de la pastorale, du théâtre et du roman contemporains, ses contes mêlent allègrement excès de préciosité, naturel désinvolte, réalisme et cruauté. Le vécu de Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy se manifeste également dans son écriture lorsqu’elle se sert de l’allégorie pour dénoncer sans ambages l’épreuve du mariage forcé qu’elle a eu à subir.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4256978821,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/1_6f1358bc-9726-445e-b77c-06ac3341a92e.jpeg?v=1439202697"},{"product_id":"1938-rare-french-book-images-dalain-fournier-par-sa-soeur-isabelle-1sted","title":"1938 - Isabelle Riviere - Images d'Alain-Fournier par sa Soeur Isabelle 1stED","description":"\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eSearch for other similar book from our bookseller friends!\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/affiliates.abebooks.com\/9gyXQ\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Abebooks\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/files\/45C13F61-09F0-24DB-8129ED74400DEC3A_medium.jpg?v=1552131068\" alt=\"\" width=\"156\" height=\"78\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\" style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e(English description)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor\u003c\/b\u003e : RIVIERE Isabelle‎\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitle \u003c\/b\u003e : Images d'Alain-Fournier par sa soeur Isabelle. ‎\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage \u003c\/b\u003e : Text in French \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher \u003c\/b\u003e : Paris, Emile-Paul Frères, 1938.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize \u003c\/b\u003e : 8 \"X 5 \" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages \u003c\/b\u003e : 341 pages \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding \u003c\/b\u003e : Good softcover binding (hinges fine, small tears and chips on cover as shown, overall worn and scuffed) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContent \u003c\/b\u003e : Very good content (bright, tight and clean) \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe book \u003c\/b\u003e : Nice memoir on Alain Fournier by his sister Isabelle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe subject \u003c\/b\u003e : \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlain-Fournier was the pseudonym of Henri Alban-Fournier (October 3, 1886 – September 22, 1914), a French author and soldier.

Nelligan was born in Montreal on December 24, 1879 at 602, rue de La Gauchetière. He was the first son of David Nelligan, who arrived in Quebec from Dublin, Ireland at the age of 12. His mother was Émilie Amanda Hudon, from Rimouski, Quebec. He had two sisters, Eva and Gertrude. A follower of Symbolism, his poetry was profoundly influenced by Octave Crémazie, Louis Fréchette, Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, Georges Rodenbach, Maurice Rollinat and Edgar Allan Poe. A precocious talent like Arthur Rimbaud, his first poems were published in Montreal when he was 16 years old. In 1899, Nelligan suffered a major psychotic breakdown from which he never recovered. He never had a chance to finish his first poetry work which was to be entitled Le Récital des Anges according to his last notes. At the time, rumor and speculation was that he went insane because of the vast cultural and language differences between his mother and father. In 1903, his collected poems were published to great acclaim in Canada. He may not have been aware that he was counted among French Canada's greatest poets. On his passing in 1941, Émile Nelligan was interred in the Cimetière Notre-Dame-des-Neiges in Montreal, Quebec. Following his death, the public became increasingly interested in Nelligan. His incomplete work spawned a kind of romantic legend. He was first translated to English in 1960 by P.F. Widdows. In 1983, Fred Cogswell translated all his poems in The Complete Poems of Émile Nelligan. Émile Nelligan is considered one of the greatest poets of French Canada. Several schools and libraries in Quebec are named after him and Hotel Nelligan is a four-star hotel in Old Montreal at the corner of Rue St. Paul and Rue St. Sulpice. \u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003cspan color=\"#ffffff\" face=\"Garamond\" size=\"3\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e(French description française)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuteur \u003c\/b\u003e : NELLIGAN, Émile (DANTIN, Louis) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitre \u003c\/b\u003e : Émile Nelligan et son oeuvre. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLangue \u003c\/b\u003e  : Texte en français \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eÉditions \u003c\/b\u003e :   (Montréal) 1903 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions \u003c\/b\u003e : 20 cmX 15 cm \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePagination \u003c\/b\u003e  : xxxiv et 164 pages \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReliure \u003c\/b\u003e : Excellente reliure demi cuir (mors solides) sous une couverture protectrice amovible de mylar.   \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eContenu \u003c\/b\u003e  : Excellent état du contenu \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eIllustrations \u003c\/b\u003e  :  Illustré par un portrait en frontispice  \u003ci\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eLe livre\u003c\/b\u003e  :   Très Rare édition originale des poèmes de Nelligan.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eL'auteur\u003c\/b\u003e  :   Émile Nelligan (24 décembre 1879 à Montréal - 18 novembre 1941 à Montréal) est un poète canadien (québécois). Disciple du symbolisme, il a été profondément influencé par Octave Crémazie, Louis Fréchette, Charles Baudelaire, Paul Verlaine, Arthur Rimbaud, Georges Rodenbach, Maurice Rollinat et Edgar Allan Poe. Parmi les thèmes récurrents de ses poèmes, on note l'enfance, la folie, la musique, l'amour et la mort. Nelligan naît le 24 décembre 1879 à Montréal au 602, rue de La Gauchetière. Il est le premier fils de David Nelligan, un anglophone irlandais arrivé au Québec vers l'âge de douze ans, et d'Émilie Amanda Hudon, Québécoise francophone de Rimouski. Il a deux jeunes sœurs, Béatrice et Gertrude. Il passe une enfance aisée, entre la maison de Montréal et la résidence d'été des Nelligan à Cacouna au Québec. Il s'absente souvent de l'école et sa mère s'occupe alors de son éducation. Il vit pratiquement toute sa vie à Montréal avec sa famille. En septembre 1893, Nelligan commence son cours classique au Collège de Montréal, mais il échoue ses éléments latins qu'il reprend l'année suivante. Il échoue aussi en syntaxe. Après une autre année où son père, inspecteur des postes, l'emmène avec lui pour le reprendre en main, Nelligan reprend ses études classiques au printemps 1896, cette fois au Collège Sainte-Marie de Montréal. Cependant, doué d’un talent précoce comme Arthur Rimbaud, il envoie dès cette époque ses poèmes au journal Le Samedi de Montréal, lequel publie son premier poème le 13 juin 1896, qu'il signe sous le pseudonyme d'Émile Kovar. Il s'agit de Rêve fantasque. Nelligan n'a alors que 16 ans. En 1896, il se lie d'amitié avec le poète Arthur de Bussières qui vient d'être admis à l'École littéraire de Montréal récemment fondée et décide de consacrer le reste de sa vie à la poésie. En février 1897, parrainé par Joseph Mélançon, Nelligan devient à son tour membre de l'École littéraire de Montréal et abandonne définitivement ses études. Il assiste assidument aux réunions de l'École et y lit ses poèmes, mais il démissionne le 27 mars avec son parrain. Il continue de publier de façon épisodique, mais sa poésie est en butte au conservatisme littéraire de l'époque. Au printemps de 1898, Nelligan père, qui n'apprécie guère le mode de vie bohème d'Émile, décide de lui apprendre de force le travail en l'envoyant faire un voyage en Angleterre. Cependant, le retour précipité de son fils l'oblige à lui trouver un emploi local. En septembre, Émile sera comptable chez un marchand de charbon pendant 15 jours, puis, sur les instances de sa mère, auprès du juge Gonzalve Desaulniers, membre de l'École littéraire de Montréal, Nelligan est réadmis dans ce cénacle littéraire le 9 décembre 1898. Le 26 mai 1899, au cours d'une séance publique de l'école, Nelligan fait la lecture de trois poèmes dont son réputé La Romance du vin qui reste gravé dans la mémoire collective, car il est le dernier à être prononcé en public par le poète qui, dans la même année, est diagnostiqué comme souffrant de graves psychoses dont il ne se remettra jamais. Il n'a jamais eu la possibilité d’achever son premier ouvrage de poésie qui devait, selon ses dernières notes, s’intituler Le Récital des anges. À la demande de ses parents, Nelligan est interné le 9 août 1899 à la Retraite Saint-Benoît, un asile tenu par les frères de la Charité dans l'est de l'île de Montréal. En 1925, il est transféré à l'asile de Saint-Jean-de-Dieu où il vit jusqu'à son décès, le 18 novembre 1941. En 1903, un recueil de 107 de ses poèmes, choisis et ordonnés par Louis Dantin est publié chez Beauchemin. Cette publication le fait connaître au Québec, en Belgique et en France. Après sa mort en 1941, le public s’intéresse de plus en plus à Nelligan. Son travail inachevé devient aussi l'objet d'un intérêt croissant des spécialistes. Il a d’abord été traduit en anglais en 1960 par P. F. Widdows. En 1983, Fred Cogswell traduit tous ses poèmes dans l’ouvrage The Complete Poems of Émile Nelligan. Au début du xxie siècle, Émile Nelligan est encore considéré comme un des plus grands poètes du Québec. Les premiers vers de son poème Soir d'hiver y sont très connus : « Ah! comme la neige a neigé!

When she termed her works contes de fées (fairy tales), she originated the term that is now generally used for the genre. Her most popular works were her fairy tales and adventure stories as told in Les Contes des Fees (Tales of fairies) and Contes Nouveaux, ou Les Fées à la Mode. Unlike the folk tales of the Grimm Brothers, who were born some 135 years later than d'Aulnoy, she told her stories in a more conversational style, as they might be told in salons. These stories were far from suitable for children and many English adaptations are very dissimilar to the original. \u003c\/i\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003cspan size=\"3\" face=\"Garamond\" color=\"#ffffff\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e(French description française)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuteur \u003c\/b\u003e : Aulnoy, Madame d' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitre \u003c\/b\u003e : Les Contes de Fées, Par madame D****.

Femme « d'esprit » et scandaleuse, elle est l'un des auteurs à l'origine du genre écrit du conte merveilleux. Là où d'autres tels que Charles Perrault travaillaient dans le sens du polissage, madame d'Aulnoy a insufflé un esprit subversif en usant d'allégories et de satires. Son travail littéraire est souvent rapproché de celui de Jean de La Fontaine pour sa critique masquée de la cour et de la société française du xviie siècle. Après le succès des Contes de ma mère l’Oye de Charles Perrault en 1697, Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy fait paraître les quatre volumes des Contes des fées, suivis des Contes nouveaux ou les Fées à la mode, respectivement parus en 1697 et 1698 et qui lui valent la célébrité. Comptant parmi les plus authentiques chefs-d’œuvre de la littérature féerique, ses contes l’Oiseau bleu, la Belle au cheveux d’or, Gracieuse et Percinet, le Prince lutin, la Biche au bois, la Chatte blanche, le Rameau d’or, Finette Cendron, le Nain jaune, la Grenouille bienfaisante, reflètent l’évolution d’un genre emprunté aux traditions populaires en un genre littéraire destiné au lectorat adulte de la société galante. Construits comme des aventures romanesques, où se découvre aisément l’influence de la pastorale, du théâtre et du roman contemporains, ses contes mêlent allègrement excès de préciosité, naturel désinvolte, réalisme et cruauté. Le vécu de Marie-Catherine d’Aulnoy se manifeste également dans son écriture lorsqu’elle se sert de l’allégorie pour dénoncer sans ambages l’épreuve du mariage forcé qu’elle a eu à subir.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4257230789,"sku":"","price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/KGrHqZHJE8E_iDnsmODBQcW53TH4w_60_1.jpeg?v=1439203530"},{"product_id":"1959-book-the-tower-treasure-the-hardy-boys-stories-1","title":"1959 - Franklin W.

As a child she was greatly influenced by the works of the illustrator Kate Greenaway, whom she assiduously copied in her formative years. Her principal influence, however, which she duly credited, was the artwork of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Cicely was also influenced by the huge popular interest in fairies which developed from the Victorian enthusiasm for fairy stories and was epitomised by the immense popularity of J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan in the early part of the 20th century. Published in 1923, Flower Fairies of the Spring was well received by a post-industrial, war-weary public who were charmed by her vision of hope and innocence, which seemed to evoke a less aggressively modern world.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40936893712,"sku":"","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/IMG_5085.JPG?v=1501059775"},{"product_id":"1875-rare-book-poems-by-edgar-allan-poe-the-raven-lenore-ulalume","title":"1875 Rare Book - Poems by Edgar Allan POE (The Raven, Lenore, Ulalume, ...)","description":"\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e (description)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor\u003c\/strong\u003e : Poe, Edgar, Allan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTitle\u003c\/strong\u003e : Poems by Edgar Allan Poe Complete with an Original Memoir by R.

He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.

His best known works include Typee (1846), a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, and his whaling novel Moby-Dick (1851). His work was almost forgotten during his last thirty years. His writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change.

He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story.

Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre.

His best known works include Typee (1846), a romantic account of his experiences in Polynesian life, and his whaling novel Moby-Dick (1851). His work was almost forgotten during his last thirty years. His writing draws on his experience at sea as a common sailor, exploration of literature and philosophy, and engagement in the contradictions of American society in a period of rapid change. He developed a complex, baroque style: the vocabulary is rich and original, a strong sense of rhythm infuses the elaborate sentences, the imagery is often mystical or ironic, and the abundance of allusion extends to biblical Scripture, myth, philosophy, literature, and the visual arts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cccccc;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":2600871133221,"sku":"","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/IMG_5834.JPG?v=1509192827"},{"product_id":"1880s-rare-book-the-poetical-works-of-edgar-allan-poe-edited-by-james-hannay-illustrated","title":"1860's Rare Book - The Poetical Works of Edgar Allan Poe.

Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.

Poe is best known for his poetry and short stories, particularly his tales of mystery and the macabre. He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/center\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"mflibra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":4593942167589,"sku":"","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3348\/products\/IMG_6026.JPG?v=1509912526"},{"product_id":"1886-rare-victorian-book-the-anglers-souvenir-by-p-fisher-edited-by-g-christopher-davies","title":"1877 Rare Victorian Book - The Angler's Souvenir.

He is widely regarded as a central figure of Romanticism in the United States and American literature as a whole, and he was one of the country's earliest practitioners of the short story. Poe is generally considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre and is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction.

In 1917, when the first two photographs were taken, Elsie was 16 years old and Frances was 9. The pictures came to the attention of writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who used them to illustrate an article on fairies he had been commissioned to write for the Christmas 1920 edition of The Strand Magazine. Doyle, as a spiritualist, was enthusiastic about the photographs, and interpreted them as clear and visible evidence of psychic phenomena. Public reaction was mixed; some accepted the images as genuine, but others believed they had been faked.
