Produktbeschreibung

"The Shaving of Shagpat; an Arabian entertainment - Volume 4" is one installment in a series penned by George Meredith. Drawing inspiration from Arabian Nights and Middle Eastern folklore, Meredith crafts a tale centered on Shagpat, a mystical figure in the city of Sh, whose singular power is tied to his uncut hair. The narrative follows Shibli Bagarag, a young barber, who embarks on a quest to shave Shagpat and, in the process, faces various trials, enchantments, and adventures. Rich in allegory and symbolism, the story intertwines themes of fate, ambition, and the perennial battle between good and evil. Meredith, in this volume, continues to engage the reader with his intricate storytelling, vibrant characters, and vivid landscapes. While rooted in the fantasy genre, "The Shaving of Shagpat" also offers profound insights into human nature, desires, and the transformative power of determination.

Autorenporträt

George Meredith OM (February 12, 1828-May 18, 1909) was born in Portsmouth, United Kingdom. He was an English poet, writer, and author, whose books are noted for their intelligence, extraordinary dialogues, and aphoristic way of writing. Meredith's books are also recognised for psychological studies of character and a highly subjective perspective on life that is a long way ahead of its time, considering women are equals to men in all streams. His most popular works are The Ordeal of Richard Feverel (1859) and The Egoist (1879). He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature seven times.
