Excerpt from Gambara; Massimilla Doni; The Accursed Child After a walk through the gallery, the young man looked alternately at the sky and at his watch, and, with a gesture of impatience, entered a smoking apartment, lighted a cigar, and, taking his position before a mirror, glanced at his costume, whose rich ness exceeded rather what is permitted in France by the laws of good taste. He rearranged his collar and black velvet vest, which was traversed, in sev eral directions, by one of those massive gold chains which are manufactured at Genoa; then, having thrown, by a single movement, his velvet-lined cloak over his left shoulder, disposing it with grace, he resumed his walk, not at all disconcerted by the bourgeois glances that he encountered. As soon as the shops began to be lighted, and the night to appear sufficiently dark, he bent his steps toward the Place du Palais Royal, like a man who feared to be recognized; for he kept by the side of the en closure as far as the fountain, in order to reach, under shelter of the hackney-coaches, the entrance of Rue Froidmanteau, an obscure, dirty, and low thoroughfare, a sort of sewer, which the police tol erate, near the salubrious Palais Royal, just as an Italian major-domo would allow a negligent valet to heap, in a corner of the staircase, the sweepings of the apartment.

Excerpt from The Novels of Honore De Balzac, Vol. 1 of 1: Now for the First Time Completely Translated Into English It was by the fireside, in a mysterious, splendid retreat which no longer exists, but which will live in our memory, and whence our eyes discovered Paris, from the hills of Bellevue to those of Belleville, from Montmartre to the Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile, on a morning bedewed with tea, and amid the thousand thoughts that arise and die out like rockets in your sparkling conversation, that you, prodigal of wit, threw under my pen that personage worthy of Hoffman, that bearer of unknown treasures, that pilgrim seated at the gate of Paradise, having ears to listen to the songs of the angels, and having no longer a tongue to repeat them, touching ivory keys with fingers bruised by the contractions of divine inspiration, and believing that he was expressing the music of Heaven to a bewildered audience. You have created Gambara, I have only clothed him. Let me render unto Caesar what belongs to Caesar, regretting that you did not seize the pen at an epoch when noblemen ought to use it as well as their sword, in order to save their country. You may be forgetful of self, but you owe your talents to us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"On Zeus' order, Prometheus was chained to Mount Caucasus where, every day, he was to endure his liver being devoured by a bird of prey - his punishment for bringing fire to mankind. Through the impulse of Goethe, his fortune went through radical changes: the Titan, originally perceived as a trickster, was established both as a creator and a rebel freed from guilt, and he became a mask for the Romantic artist. This cross-disciplinary study, encompassing literature, the history of art, and music, examines the constitution of the Prometheus myth and the revolution it underwent in 19th-century Europe. It leads to the Symbolist period - which witnessed the coronation of the Titan as a prism for the total work of art - and aims to re-establish the importance of Prometheus amongst other major Symbolist figures such as Orpheus."
