Book summary:
El Paraíso Perdido es la obra de toda una vida dedicada a la literatura, como se desprende del paralelismo de algunas partes de la misma con otros escritos de John Milton (1608-1667).
Dedicado a la política durante un tiempo de la mano de Oliveiro Cromwell, Milton reúne en su literatura todo el enriquecimiento que le aportan los distintos escenarios de su vida diplomática.
Junta a ello su obra irradia el convencimiento pleno en la religión cristiana heredada del mensaje de su padre, un convencido católico ex protestante. Esta segunda parte la desarrola plenamente en este poema bíblico religioso de reminiscencias dantescas.

Book summary:
The Iliad (Ancient Greek ?????, Ilias) is, together with the Odyssey, one of two ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer, a supposedly blind Ionian poet. The epics are considered by most modern scholars to be the oldest literature in the Greek language. The Iliad concerns events during the tenth and final year in the siege of the city of Ilion, or Troy, by the Greeks. The Odyssey (Greek: ????????, Odusseia)is commonly dated circa 800 to 600 BC. The poem is, in part, a sequel to Homer's Iliad and mainly concerns the events that befall the Greek hero Odysseus (or Ulysses) in his long journeys after the fall of Troy and when he at last returns to his native land of Ithaca.

Since its publication a decade ago, this Lambda Literary Award-nominated book has become a classic must-read on the shelf of books adressing human sexuality and identity. Widely cited as among the most useful books of its kind, Leatherfolk is both historical witness and provocative treatise regarding a distinct subculture that has withstood decades of political harassment and other challenges to its health. Spanning the decades from the 1940s onward, this collection of vibrant writing documents the many eras and shifts of attitude that have informed the gay and lesbian leather underground and its influence on the society beyond. A new preface by editor Mark Thompson, and a new annotated bibliography provide an up-to-date look at this community and provide valuable resources for researchers and interested parties. [via]

Book summary:
With an Introduction and Notes by David Herd. Lecturer in English and American Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury Moby-Dick is the story of Captain Ahab's quest to avenge the whale that 'reaped' his leg. The quest is an obsession and the novel is a diabolical study of how a man becomes a fanatic. But it is also a hymn to democracy. Bent as the crew is on Ahab s appalling crusade, it is equally the image of a co-operative community at work: all hands dependent on all hands, each individual responsible for the security of each. Among the crew is Ishmael, the novel's narrator, ordinary sailor, and extraordinary reader. Digressive, allusive, vulgar, transcendent, the story Ishmael tells is above all an education: in the practice of whaling, in the art of writing. [via]

Book summary:
The third in Will Eisners series of adaptations of the classics. The story of a dangerously obsessed man. Obsessed with seeking vengeance against a great white whale that pushes him and his reluctant crew in a quest across the seven seas. Obsessed with pitching his boat against a formidable beast against all odds and oblivious to the great risk to life and limb. Fully painted by Will Eisner. Seen for the first time in the USA.

"True to Herman Melville`s classic. The cartoon panels that chronicle the final showdown between the captain and the giant fish are particularly spectacular."-Publishers Weekly

Book summary:
Avec Moby Dick, Melville a donné naissance à un livre-culte et inscrit dans la mémoire des hommes un nouveau mythe : celui de la baleine blanche. Fort de son expérience de marin, qui a nourri ses romans précédents et lui a assuré le succès, l'écrivain américain, alors en pleine maturité, raconte la folle quête du capitaine Achab et sa dernière rencontre avec le grand cachalot. Véritable encyclopédie de la mer, nouvelle Bible aux accents prophétiques, parabole chargée de thèmes universels, Moby Dick n'en reste pas moins construit avec une savante maîtrise, maintenant un suspense lent, qui s'accélère peu à peu jusqu'à l'apocalypse finale. L'écriture de Melville, infiniment libre et audacieuse, tour à tour balancée, puis hachée au rythme des houles, des vents et des passions humaines, est d'une richesse exceptionnelle. Il faut remonter à Shakespeare pour trouver l'exemple d'une langue aussi inventive, d'une poésie aussi grandiose. --Scarbo [via]

Book summary:
With an Introduction and Notes by Adam Roberts Royal Holloway, University of London Homer's great epic describes the many adventures of Odysseus, Greek warrior, as he strives over many years to return to his home island of Ithaca after the Trojan War. His colourful adventures, his endurance, his love for his wife and son have the same power to move and inspire readers today as they did in Archaic Greece, 2800 years ago. This poem has been translated many times over the years, but Chapman's sinewy, gorgeous rendering (1616) stands in a class of its own. Chapman believed himself inspired by the spirit of Homer himself, and matches the breadth and power of the original with a complex and stunning idiom of his own. John Keats expressed his admiration for the resulting work in the famous sonnet, 'On first looking into Chapman's Homer': 'Much have I travelled in the realms of gold...' [via]

Book summary:
First published in 1895, America's greatest novel of the Civil War was written before 21-year-old Stephen Crane had "smelled even the powder of a sham battle." But this powerful psychological study of a young soldier's struggle with the horrors, both within and without, that war strikes the reader with its undeniable realism and with its masterful descriptions of the moment-by-moment riot of emotions felt by me under fire. Ernest Hemingway called the novel an American classic, and Crane's genius is as much apparent in his sharp, colorful prose as in his ironic portrayal of an episode of war so intense, so immediate, so real that the terror of battle becomes our own ... in a masterpiece so unique that many believe modern American fiction began with Stephen Crane.
"The Red Badge Of Courage" has long been considered the first great 'modern' novel of war by an American--the first novel of literary distinction to present war without heroics and this in a spirit of total irony and skepticism." -- Alfred Kazin [via]

Compuesta en el siglo VIII a.C. narra una leyenda micénica situada en el siglo XII antes de Cristo, una edad heroíca dominada por los aspectos militares,el individualismo desenfrenado y la persecución de la riqueza y la gloria.

Homero (Siglo IX a.C. - Sigl)
Poeta griego. Homero es el literato más famoso de la época arcaica, considerado el autor de dos de las obras más importantes de la Literatura Universal: la Iliada y la Odisea. Alrededor de su vida existe un halo legendario, especulándose incluso que no existió. La Iliada tiene 24 cantos y unos 15.000 versos mientras que la Odisea se queda en unos 10.000. Sobre Homero se han vertido ríos de tinta, siendo considerado como mero recopilador de los versos que componen sus obras o el autor de los poemas. Es difícil tomar partido por alguna de las dos opciones aunque parece que la segunda va tomando más consistencia entre los estudiosos. Incluso ahora se empieza a adjudicar a Homero la autoría de algunas obras arcaicas como La Tebaida o los Epígonos. [via]

Die Ilias (altgriechisch 8»¹¬Â Iliás, vermutlich Troerin), eines der ältesten schriftlich fixierten Werke Europas, schildert einen Abschnitt des troianischen Krieges. Das Epos umfasst 24 Bücher bzw. Gesänge, wie diese Abschnitte seit der Übersetzung durch Johann Heinrich Voß bezeichnet werden. Die Ilias beruht auf frühgeschichtlichen Mythen und Erzählungen und wird Homer zugeschrieben (zur Verfasserschaft, auch hinsichtlich der Odyssee, siehe Homerische Frage). Die Ilias-Darstellung der Olympischen Götter dürfte erheblich zur Entwicklung einer nationalen griechischen Religion beigetragen haben und prägt bis in die Gegenwart die europäische Kunst- und Geisteswissenschaft.
