Hawthorne`s early stories were collected in 1837 and published under the title `Twice-Told Tales.` They include two of the stories founded on early New England annals, -- `The Gray Champion,` based on a tradition of one of the judges of Charles I., and `The Maypole of Merry-Mount,` in which Endicott appears as the embodiment of the Puritan spirit. Besides these are the allegories `Fancy`s Show Box,` `The Great Carbuncle,` and ` The Prophetic Pictures ` `The Hollow of the Three Hills,` one of the typical stories of witchcraft, foreshadowing some of his later and more powerful work the curious study, `Wake¿eld`, the popular `Rill from the Town Pump ` the pretty` fantasy, ` David Swan,` in which the lighthearted boy goes on his pilgrimage unconscious of the shadows of possibilities that have fallen across his sleeping face the pathetic story of Quaker suffering, `The Gentle Boy ` ` Dr. Heidegger`s Experiment,` -` touching a subject which recurs again in ` Septimius Felton ` and ` The Dolliver Romance ` and the light humor of `Mr. Higginbotham`s Catastrophe,-` - thus including almost every class of subject on which he afterward touched, though in all he rose to higher levels in his later work. ` Hersteller: Jazzybee Verlag Marke: Jazzybee Verlag EAN: 9783849640873 Kat: Nonbooks/Belletristik/Erzählende Literatur Lieferzeit: Sofort lieferbar Versandkosten: Ab 20¤ Versandkostenfrei in Deutschland Icon: https://www.inforius-bilder.de/bild/?I=Fan7qlvGv%2Bk6m72vU6E8V8OI0ldaLm8ZDbskSlaEMXg%3D Bild:
