Ana Karénina, novela del escritor ruso León Tolstói publicada en 1877.
La novela es considerada una las oras maestras del Realismo. El personaje de Ana Karénina esta inspirado de Aleksandr Pushkin.
Muchos críticos calificaron la obra como un «romance de alta sociedad», Fiódor Dostoyevski declaró que era una «obra de arte». Vladímir Nabókov secundó esta opinión, admirando sobre todo la «magia del estilo de Tolstói» y la figura del tren, que se introduce ya en los primeros capítulos (los niños jugando con un tren de juguete), desarrollada en capítulos siguientes (la pesadilla de Anna) hasta llegar al majestuoso final.

Questo libro contiene ora diversi sommari HTML che renderanno la lettura un vero piacere! Il libro è un racconto autobiografico dell'autore in un momento della sua vita in cui attraversa una crisi di malinconia esistenziale. Descrive la sua ricerca di risposte alle domande profonde: "Cosa uscirà da ciò che faccio oggi? cosa farò domani? Cosa uscirà dalla mia vita? E "Qual è il significato della vita? ", Senza risposte per lui e che rendono la vita" impossibile ". Tolstoj parla della sua infanzia, del suo abbandono della sua fede ortodossa russa, della sua padronanza della forza, della sua volontà di potenza e di come, dopo aver raggiunto il successo finanziario e un considerevole status sociale, la sua vita non avesse più alcun significato. Dopo aver disperato i suoi tentativi di trovare risposte nella scienza, nella filosofia, nella saggezza orientale e nei suoi colleghi scrittori, "confessa" di aver trovato la risposta al suo dolore nelle profonde convinzioni religiose ortodosse dei cittadini comuni . Descrive come ha presentato il suo scetticismo razionale e l'orrore della "superstizione delle verità cristiane" al fine di ottenere la pace mentale di cui aveva bisogno per rendere possibile la sua "sopravvivenza". Il termine "confessione" è stato usato perché Tolstoy era ben consapevole di essere contrario ai pregiudizi anti-religiosi / atei che dominavano gran parte dell'élite laica russa ed europea (di default a causa delle carenze dell'ortodossia ).

Carmilla, publié en 1871, est le plus célèbre roman de l'écrivain irlandais Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu.
L'œuvre est d'ailleurs l'un des romans gothiques et vampiriques les plus célèbres du genre tant les atmosphères y sont puissantes et mystérieuses. Laura, candide à souhait, incarne la parfaite héroïne gothique. Carmilla, quant à elle, personnage énigmatique et dangereux, incarne la sensualité et présente l'homosexualité féminine sous un jour nouveau, sombre, venimeux et exalté.
Carmilla est un livre important dans la culture vampirique. À ce titre, il peut être considéré comme une œuvre majeure de la littérature fantastique du xixe siècle, romantique et macabre. Fait non négligeable, c'est un compatriote de Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, Bram Stoker, qui reconnaîtra plus tard la dette qu'il a envers celui-ci lors de la parution, en 1899, du roman qui allait immortaliser son nom, Dracula.

Mansfield Park est un roman de la femme de lettres anglaise Jane Austen paru en 1814, le premier entièrement écrit dans ses années de maturité, puisqu'elle y a travaillé durant l'année 1813. Souvent considéré comme le plus expérimental de tous ses écrits, il est d'un abord plus difficile que les autres et son personnage principal, la timide et silencieuse Fanny Price, est une héroïne paradoxale, qui séduit difficilement le lecteur. Cependant Mansfield Park remporte un succès incontestable, puisque tout le tirage est épuisé en à peine six mois et apporte à son auteur les gains les plus importants qu'elle ait tirés jusque là d'une seule publication.

Jim Dillingham Young and his wife Della are a young couple who are very much in love with each other, but can barely afford their one-room apartment opposite the elevated train due to their very bad economic condition. For Christmas, Della decides to buy Jim a chain which costs twenty dollars for his prized pocket watch given to him by his father. To raise the funds, she has her prized long hair cut off and sold to make a wig. Meanwhile, Jim decides to sell his watch to buy Della a beautiful set of combs made out of tortoise shell for her lovely, knee-length brown hair. Although each is disappointed to find the gift they chose rendered useless, each is pleased with the gift they received, because it represents their love for one another.
The true unselfish love that the characters, Jim and Della, share is greater than their possessions.
