Teleny eller Medaljens baksida
Original Hardcover. Publisher: Vertigo Förlag Utg. 2014. Ej o.u. Original Hardcover 249 p. This book is brand new. Original title: Teleny or The reverse of the medal Translator: Johansson KG Series: Vertigos erotiska klassiker Language: Svenska --- Information regarding the book: Teleny eller Medaljens baksida 1893 är en av de första erotiska romanerna med inriktning på kärlek mellan män. Men berättelsen om det passionerade förhållandet mellan den förmögne Camille Des Grieux och pianisten René Teleny i 1890-talets Paris har också drag av gotisk skräck. Det mesta tyder på att Oscar Wilde var en av de drivande i författandet men också att han inte var ensam utan samarbetade med vänner som Robbie Ross och John Gray. Den exakta tillkomsthistorien förblir i dunkel. Denna klassiker inom den viktorianska erotiken är i varje fall en oupphörligt dramatisk överraskande chockerande gripande ömsint grotesk och inte minst starkt upphetsande berättelse som inte liknar någon annan. hardcover

Wilde, Oscar
The Ballad of Reading Gaol. Ballada Redingskoy Tur’my.
<p><strong>Second Russian edition of the poem. First edition of this translation.</strong></p><p>The first translation of Oscar Wilde's '<em>Ballad'</em> by N. Korn presumably a pen name used by Korney Chukovsky appeared in 1903 but it was riddled with errors. The following year another version by <strong>Konstantin Balmont</strong> 1867–1942 a Russian symbolist poet and translator was published. In the summer of 1902 Balmont traveled to England and visited the town of Reading where Wilde had been imprisoned. In November 1903 Balmont delivered a lecture titled '<em>Oscar Wilde's Poetry and The Ballad.'</em> and presented his translation at a meeting of the Literary-Artistic Circle in Moscow. During his lecture he likened Wilde to Nietzsche and hailed him as 'the greatest English writer of the end of the last century'. Balmont also prepared translations of works by Edgar Allan Poe Percy Bysshe Shelley Walt Whitman and Robert Burns.
