Produktbeschreibung

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Autorenporträt

Edward Carpenter (1844-1929) was a prominent English socialist poet, philosopher, and early advocate for LGBT rights. He was a key figure in the late 19th and early 20th century socialist movement in Britain and is best known for his writings on social reform, spirituality, and human rights. His notable works are Towards Democracy (1883): A poetic work that reflects Carpenter's hilosophical and spiritual beliefs. "The Intermediate Sex" (1908): One of the earliest works advocating for the acceptance and understanding of homosexuality. " Civilisation: Its Cause and Cure" (1889): An exploration of the ills of industrial civilization and the potential for a more harmonious social order. "Pagan & Christian Creeds: Their Origin and Meaning" (1920): An analysis of the similarities between pagan and Christian religious practices and beliefs. Carpenter's advocacy for social reform and human rights influenced a wide range of social movements, including the labor movement, the feminist movement, and the LGBT rights movement. Carpenter lived with George Merrill from the 1890s until Merrill's death in 1928, a relationship that was openly acknowledged and celebrated in his social circle. Edward Carpenter's life and work left a lasting impact on social thought and progressive movements in Britain and beyond, making him a significant figure in the history of social reform and human rights advocacy.
