Release Date: 2020-03-09
Founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, the English painter Sir John Everett Millais was a principal figure of nineteenth century British art. Along with Rossetti and Holman Hunt, he confronted the art establishment with a daring challenge to ignore 500 years of history and the corrupting influence of Raphael. An extraordinary range of paintings sought a bold return to the abundant detail, intense colours and complex compositions of the early Renaissance. Millais produced meticulously detailed artworks, forming an extraordinary and diverse oeuvre that infused new life into British art.

Delphi Collected Works of Natsume Soseki (Illustrated)
The early twentieth century author Natsume Sōseki is regarded as one of Japan’s most noted novelists, whose works still form part of the country’s school curriculum. Masterpieces like ‘Botchan’, ‘I Am a Cat’ and ‘Kusamakura’ explore the plight of the alienated Japanese intellectual in the modern world. His works are characterised for their delicate lyricism, which is uniquely Japanese, helping to inspire the development of the modern realistic novel in Japanese literature. This eBook presents Soseki’s collected works, with illustrations, rare texts and informative introductions. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to Soseki’s life and works * Concise introductions to the texts * 3 novels, with individual contents tables * Features Soseki’s rare English translation of the Japanese thirteenth century classic ‘Hojoki’ * Images of how the books were first published, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Excellent formatting of the texts * The rare story collection ‘Ten Nights of Dreams’, available in no other collection * Ordering of texts into chronological order and genres Please note: there are few translations of Soseki’s novels available and so we are unable to provide our usual comprehensive range of texts. When new works become available, they will be added to the eBook as a free update. CONTENTS: The Translation Hojoki (1891) The Novels I am a Cat (1905) Botchan (1906) Kusamakura(1906) The Short Story Collection Ten Nights of Dreams (1908)
