Milton's Paradise Lost is one of the greatest epic poems in the English language. It tells the story of the Fall of Man, a tale of immense drama and excitement, of rebellion and treachery, of innocence pitted against corruption, in which God and Satan fight a bitter battle for control of mankind's destiny. The struggle rages across three worlds - heaven, hell, and earth - as Satan and his band of rebel angels plot their revenge against God. At the center of the conflict are Adam and Eve, motivated by all too human temptations, but whose ultimate downfall is unyielding love.Marked by Milton's characteristic erudition is a work epic both in scale and, notoriously, in ambition. For nearly 350 years it has held generation upon generation of scholars, students and readers in rapt attention and its profound influence can be seen in almost every corner of Western culture

白雪公主是家喻户晓的童话故事，本书中的白雪公主完全摆脱了童话的模式，成了一个普通的现代女性，有烦恼，有心事。会压抑，也会有妒忌心，还充满了女权意识。此书充满了一种黑色幽默，堪称荒诞派文学的经典之作。《白雪公主后传》是美国文学大师巴塞尔姆最重要的作品。在大师的笔下，白雪公主已成为一个普通的现代女性，是个有七情六欲的真实人：有压抑感，落魄感和妒忌心，也仍然想入非非，做着与现实生活格格不入的童话中的梦。她仍然希望像原来那样，成为关注的中心。她已经厌烦了这个家和自己的家庭角色，对歧视女性的社会忿忿不满，听厌了矮人们喋喋不休的陈问滥调，因此内心充满改变现状的渴求。绝望中，她甚至盼望着能有一次带性丑闻的冒险，能打破单凋乏味的生活……作家用貌似疯狂的叙述来表达一种玩世不恭的讥诮，以反映当代人滑稽无奈的众生相。

John Donne (1572-1631) was the most outstanding of the English Metaphysical Poets and a churchman famous for his spellbinding sermons.Donne's poetry embraces a wide range of secular and religious subjects. He wrote cynical verse about inconstancy, poems about true love, Neoplatonic lyrics on the mystical union of lovers' souls and bodies and brilliant satires and hymns depicting his own spiritual struggles. The two Anniversaries - An Anatomy of the World (1611) and Of the Progress of the Soul (1612)--are elegies for 15-year-old Elizabeth Drury.Whatever the subject, Donne's poems reveal the same characteristics that typified the work of the metaphysical poets: dazzling wordplay, often explicitly sexual; paradox; subtle argumentation; surprising contrasts; intricate psychological analysis; and striking imagery selected from nontraditional areas such as law, physiology, scholastic philosophy, and mathematics.Obsessed with the idea of death, Donne preached what was called his own funeral sermon, Death's Duel just a few weeks before he died in London on March 31, 1631.

Inspired by Irish folklore, first published in 1892, first performed in 1899.The sorrowful are dumb for thee--Lament of Morion Shehone for Miss Mary BourkeOriginally published in 1892, The Countess Cathleen aroused fierce controversy when it was first performed in 1899. The play was frequently revived and almost as often revised, becoming at various points in Yeats’s career a decisive indicator of his relations with his literary and theatrical public, of his changing conception of dramatic form, and of the status of his pursuit of Maud Gonne, for whom the play was written. This volume in the Cornell Yeats reproduces the complete set of extant manuscripts preceding the play’s first publication and reassembles the extensive manuscript, proof, and authorial copy to present a crucial body of evidence of Yeats’s work and thought in drama and theater over the course of three decades.
