On Reading Ruskin (Prefaces to La Bible D'Amiens and Sesame Et Les Lys, with Se),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Early in his career, Marcel Proust, who greatly admired John Ruskin, published translations of two works by the English critic La Bible dAmiens (1900) and Ssame et les Lys (1906). He wrote a substantial preface to each book and provided discursive notes that were themselves often small essays. Rare now, even in their French versions, the preface to La Bible dAmiens and the notes to both books have never before been available in English. In bringing them together with the preface to Ssame et les Lys, this new book completes the translation into English of the important critical writings of Proust."Expertly edited and translated and . . . introduced by a brilliant fortypage essay and a fascinating bibliographical note by Richard Macksey. It is an event for celebration. . . . Proust emerges from these essays and notes as one of the truly great critics."Gabriel Josipovici, Times Literary Supplement"A welcome addition to Englishlanguage Proust texts and, I think, one long overdue."Germain Bre, Kenan Professor Emerita, Wake Forest University
