MONTGOMERY (Robert Bird).
Sheppard Lee. Traduit de l'anglais (États-Unis) par Antoine Traisnel.
Édition originale de la traduction française (âs de grand papier). Très bel exemplaire à l'état neuf. Robert Montgomery Bird (1806-1854) est un romancier, dramaturge, journaliste et médecin américain qui connut un immense succès comme auteur de théâtre. Son roman Sheppard Lee est considéré comme un des premiers romans américains." Qui n'a jamais rêvé d'être quelqu'un d'autre ? D'échanger sa place avec un autre ? Début du 19ème siècle, Philadelphie : un jeune Américain, Sheppard Lee, se découvre capable de migrer de corps en corps : il sera un riche, un pauvre, un fou, un esclave. Et ses multiples réincarnations vont peu à peu dessiner le portrait de la société américaine, une société folle et cruelle. Chaque fois qu'il se retrouvera dans un nouveau corps, Sheppard Lee fera siennes de nouvelles habitudes, pensées et manières de s'exprimer et le roman épousera ces transformations, alternant entre le roman d'éducation, le conte gothique, le récit de science-fiction, le roman social, tout en conservant une force picaresque sans pareille. Cartographie mentale de l'Amérique et témoignage de son époque sur les pionniers, l'abolitionnisme et le populisme naissant, ce roman a été un immense succès à l'époque de sa publication, contemporaine de celle de La démocratie en Amérique d'Alexis de Tocqueville. Inspiré par le Frankenstein de Mary Shelley, salué par Edgar Allan Poe, Sheppard Lee est le premier grand roman américain. Oublié au 2 0ème siècle, il a été redécouvert au début du 21 ème siècle et loué, à la fois comme un roman post moderniste avant l'heure, et comme une prémonition de l'Amérique délirante des présidents Bush et Trump. Traduit pour la première fois en français, ce roman inouï est suivi d'une postface du traducteur, Antoine Traisnel, grand spécialiste de l'oeuvre de Nathaniel ".

ELLIS (Bret Easton).
American psycho. Traduit de l'américain par Alain Defossé.
Édition originale de la traduction française (pas de grand papier). Très bel exemplaire à l'état neuf. Bret Easton Ellis est un écrivain, nouvelliste, réalisateur et scénariste américain né le 7 mars 1964 à Los Angeles. Il est l'un des auteurs principaux du mouvement Génération X et peut-être aussi parfois considéré comme un romancier d'anticipation sociale. Se considérant lui-même comme un moraliste, certains voient en lui un nihiliste. Les personnages qu'il dépeint à travers son œuvre sont souvent jeunes, dépravés et vains, tout en en étant conscient et en l'assumant. Ellis situe ses romans dans les années 1980, faisant du mercantilisme et de l'industrie du divertissement de cette décennie un symbole. Il est aussi considéré comme l'un des pionniers du mouvement littéraire Brat Pack, ainsi que son ami de longue date, lui aussi écrivain, Jay McInerney. C'est en 1985 avec la publication de Moins que zéro, son premier roman, qu'à l'âge de 21 ans il acquiert un grand succès critique et commercial, le propulsant au rang de star. Son troisième roman et plus grand succès commercial, American Psycho, suscita à sa sortie en 1991 de très nombreuses controverses. Il fut notamment accusé de misogynie, ce qui conduisit son éditeur, Simon & Schuster à arrêter la publication de son ouvrage. Le roman fut tout de même publié par une autre maison d'édition.

HAMILTON E.
Translation of the Letters of a Hindoo Rajah. Written previous to, and during the Period of his Residence in England. To which is prefixed a preliminary Dissertation on the History, Religion and Manners of the Hindoos. IN FULL TREE CALF
2 vols., 8vo., Second Edition, on laid paper, two early nineteenth signatures on titles, later signature on blank preliminary of both volumes; handsomely bound in early nineteenth century full tree calf, sides with decorative floral frame border in gilt, backs gilt extra, second and fourth compartments with red and green leather labels lettered and tooled in gilt, all other compartments ruled with Greek key and floral rolls enclosing a gilt star device, doublures tooled in gilt and blind, a clean, crisp and most attractive copy. Dedicated to Warren Hastings, late Governor General of Bengal, Hamilton's first novel appeared in 1796 to considerable acclaim. It satirises society through the device of Oriental letters on the model of works by Montesquieu and Goldsmith, its theme being that women also can be both strong and able. The Preface, based partly on her brother's experiences in India, is both extensive and erudite. Elizabeth Hamilton (1758-1816), Irish novelist, essayist and poet. Born in Belfast, she moved as a child to Stirling, later to London, and finally to Edinburgh in 1804. She directed all her works to her own sex whose qualities of mind she admired and promoted. She was praised by Maria Edgeworth and, famously, by Jane Austen who was pleased that such 'a respectable writer' had read Sense and Sensibility. Block, p.96; Todd, p.147. See CBEL III, p.398.

Mason, Harold Andrew
TO HOMER THROUGH POPE An Introduction to Homer's Iliad and Pope's Translation
Ex-library copy with usual stamps, call numbers and pocket. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; As fewer and fewer people learn to read ancient Greek, there is a need for a critical study of the most influential translations that have been made from the major works of ancient Greek literature. Mason’s monograph offers exactly that for readers of the "Iliad" and the "Odyssey. " More particularly, he presents a persuasive argument for reading Alexander Pope’s translation, his accompanying notes, and his "Essay on Criticism. " These merit careful study, for they illuminate Pope’s principles as a translator and constitute one of the most intelligent and penetrating commentaries on the poetic qualities of the epics ever written in English. Mason’s new insights, along with his stringent and lively comments, will bring readers closer to a real understanding of Homer, whether they read him in the original or come to him in translation for the first time. They will also find here a masterly appreciation of Pope. ; 216 pages
