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.
Edgar Saltus (1855–1921) was an American writer known primarily for his highly stylized prose and themes often centered on the philosophy of decadence and aestheticism. Born into a wealthy New York family, Saltus attended Columbia College but instead of pursuing the legal career for which he had trained, he turned to literature. Influenced by the French Symbolists and writers such as Balzac and Flaubert, Saltus cultivated a reputation for his erudite and opulent style. His work spans a variety of genres, including biography, fiction, and social commentary, and it is marked by a fascination with the macabre and the decadent, evident in novels like 'The Philosophy of Disenchantment' and 'The Anatomy of Negation.' Of particular note is 'The Lords of the Ghostland: A History of the Ideal' (1907), a survey of world religions and philosophies presented with his characteristic flair for the dramatic and the paradoxical. Though his popularity waned in the 20th century, his work has enjoyed periodic revivals among scholars attuned to fin-de-siècle literature and the undercurrents of early modernist style. Saltus's contribution to American letters lies in his idiosyncratic blend of cynicism, elegance, and psychological insight.
