Frankenstein

Frankenstein

Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is the original 1818 'Uncensored' Edition of Frankenstein as first published anonymously in 1818. This original version is much more true to the spirit of the author's original intentions than the heavily revised 1831 edition, edited by Shelley, in part, because of pressure to make the story more conservative. Many scholars prefer the 1818 text to the more common 1831 edition. Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus is a novel written by...

Jane Eyre

Jane Eyre

De Jane Eyre (1847), ciertamente una de las novelas más famosas de estos dos últimos siglos, solemos conservar la imagen ultrarromántica de una azarosa historia de amor entre una institutriz pobre y su rico e imponente patrón, todo en el marco truculento y misterioso de una fantasmagoría gótica. Y olvidamos que, antes y después de la relación central con el abismal, sardónico y volcánico señor Rochester, Jane Eyre tiene otras relaciones, otras historias: episodios escalofriantes de una infancia...

Leaves of Grass

The griffin classics

Leaves of Grass

In 1855, Walt Whitman published – at his own expense – the first edition of Leaves of Grass, a visionary volume of twelve poems. Showing the influence of a uniquely American form of mysticism known as Transcendentalism, which eschewed the general society and culture of the time, the writing is distinguished by an explosively innovative free verse style and previously unmentionable subject matter. Exalting nature, celebrating the human body, and praising the senses and sexual love, the monumental...
