Charles Reade

    Charles Reade byl anglický romanopisec a dramatik, který byl v 19. století jedním z nejoblíbenějších autorů v Anglii. Jeho díla často zkoumají složité morální otázky a lidskou povahu s pronikavým vhledem. Readeho styl, charakterizovaný živým jazykem a silným vypravěčským citem, čtenáře vtahuje do svých příběhů. Ačkoli jeho popularita v pozdějších letech poklesla, jeho schopnost mistrně vykreslit historická období a postavy zůstává pozoruhodná.

      Propria Quae Maribus2023
    • A picaresque historical novel by Charles Reade, published in 1861 and set in late medieval Holland and Europe. The novel focuses on the story of a young scribe and illuminator named Gerard Eliason and his love for Margaret Brandt, daughter of a poor scholar. Interacting with them is a cast of vividly drawn characters and various historical personages. The overarching theme through all of their adventures is the conflict between man's obligations to family and to Church. Long considered a literary classic, it has been critically acclaimed as one of the greatest historical novels in English. Reade affected a medieval writing style and used much archaic language even for his nineteenth century readers.
