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

George Saintsbury, born on October 23, 1845, in Southampton, England, and passing away on January 28, 1933, was an influential English literary historian and critic, notable for his comprehensive knowledge of English literature. Saintsbury's prolific writing career encompassed areas as diverse as French wine and English prosody, but he is perhaps best remembered for his expert commentary on literary texts and his definitive editorial work. A former professor of Rhetoric and English Literature at the University of Edinburgh, Saintsbury combined a keen analytical eye with a richly descriptive style that endeared him to readers and students alike. His contribution to the understanding of English literature is reflected in his detailed analyses of authors such as Jane Austen, as well as his 'History of English Prose Rhythm' (1912), which remains a significant work in the field. Saintsbury's scholarly pursuits yielded a detailed examination of the poet Matthew Arnold in his eponymous work 'Matthew Arnold' (1899), which sits among other distinguished literary studies. It is in texts like these that Saintsbury's erudite yet accessible commentary provided both contemporaries and future scholars with insights into the nuanced appreciation of literary style and context. His work maintains relevance and is often cited in discussions of nineteenth and early twentieth-century literary criticism.
