GREAT DETAIL, DATES AND ACCOUNTS. TERRIFIC HISTORY. George Washington Cable (October 12, 1844 ¿ January 31, 1925) was an American novelist notable for the realism of his portrayals of Creole life in his native New Orleans, Louisiana. He has been called "the most important southern artist working in the late 19th century, as well as the first modern southern writer." In his treatment of racism, mixed-race families and miscegenation, his fiction has been thought to anticipate that of William Faulkner. He also wrote articles critical of contemporary society. Due to hostility against him after two 1885 essays… Read More

NEW YORK: THE MINERVA PUBLISHING CO., 1892 RED COVER, WORN, WITH BLACK DESIGN AND GOLD SPINE DESIGN. FORMER OWNER NAME INSIDE FRONT, FIRST BLANK PAGE MISSING. TIGHT AND CLEAN THROUGHOUT. FIRST AMERICAN PRINT. Matilde Serao (7 March 1856 25 July 1927) was a Greek-born Italian journalist and novelist. She was the first woman called to edit an Italian newspaper, Il Corriere di Roma and later Il Giorno. Serao was also the co-founder and editor of the newspaper Il Mattino, and the author of several novels. She never won the Nobel Prize in Literature despite being nominated on six occasions. In 1860 the family moved back to Italy, first to Carinola and then to Naples. Serao grew up in poverty and worked as a schoolmistress, an experience later described in the preface to a book of short stories called Leggende Napolitane (Napoletan Legends, 1881). She first gained notoriety after publishing her short stories in Il Piccolo, a newspaper edited by Rocco de Zerbi and her first novel, Fantasia (Fantasy, 1883)… Read More

KENNETH MCKENZIE, INSTRUCTOR IN ROMANCE LANGUAGES IN YALE UNIVERSITY PROVIDES PREFACE. ENGLISH ANNOTATION, FABLES ARE IN FRENCH, A VOCABULARY IN THE BACK FRENCH TO ENGLISH. La Fontaine, Jean de (1621-95). Poet, known above all for his Fables, which have been read, learned, and recited by French children and adults for three centuries. He wrote much else besides, in a variety of genres. Often seen as one of the principal authors of French classicism, he appears rather as an idiosyncratic individualist. His tastes ranged from Plato to Rabelais, from the romances of chivalry to Malherbe, and his writings show a love of experiment as well as a sensitivity to contemporary taste.
