Site map Stanley Weyman Profile Stanley John Weyman was born at 54 Broad Street, Ludlow , Shropshire, the son of a solicitor and educated at Ludlow Grammar School, Shrewsbury School and Christ Church College, Oxford. He began writing in a minor way while at Oxford, where he read history, and increased his output in the following years with articles for The Cornhill magazine . He in fact spent ten years as a barrister before turning to a literary career full time, due largely to the influence of the magazine's editor. Weyman travelled abroad and his experiences and observations provided him with much of the background for the historical stories and romances for which he became well known. On one occasion he was arrested under suspicion of being a spy in the south of France and was only released after the intervention of the British Ambassador. His novels include Memoirs of a minister of France The red cockade The long night The wild geese (1908) as well as many short stories.

Jim Hawkins, le héros de Treasure Island Présentation générale. Liste des principaux auteurs britanniques. Où trouver des romans d'aventures britanniques? Auteurs d'autres pays. ... Retour à la page d'accueil. Présentation générale. Pour beaucoup, le roman d'aventures est essentiellement anglais. Cette affirmation s'appuie sur quatre constatations: d'abord, historiquement, c'est sans doute ici que le genre est né, avec Marryat, Ballantyne, Kingston ou Kingsley; ensuite, quantitativement, la plupart des auteurs sont issues de Grande-Bretagne, et qualitativement, les plus grands écrivains viennent de ces pays: Stevenson Conrad Rider Haggard , Conan Doyle Enfin, ce sont encore des auteurs de ces pays, qui ont contribué à la disparition du genre en le renouvelant: John Buchan qui a fait glisser le récit vers l'espionnage; Joseph Conrad , qui en proposant une lecture réaliste du roman d'aventures, a influencé toute une frange de la littérature française (Malraux, Cendrars, etc.); Conan Doyle qui, avec d'autres, a contribué dans ses romans d'aventures, à la naissance de la science fiction. Le roman d'aventures anglais a évolué au fil du temps. On peut distinguer plusieurs périodes. Les premiers récits, jusqu'en 1850, se destinaient aux adultes. C'est le cas des premières œuvres de Marryat, Mayne Reid ou de Kingsley. Très rapidement cependant, un renversement total s'est produit, et tous les auteurs, y compris Kingsley et Marryat, rejoints bientôt par Ballantyne, Kingston ou Henty, se mettent à écrire pour les enfants. Ils produisent des œuvres qui répondent aux priorités éducatives de la société victorienne: il s'agit de faire du jeune lecteur un parfait gentleman, apte à participer à l'édification de l'empire britannique. Le message pédagogique est omniprésent. Il s'appuie sur une morale chrétienne et surtout sur un ensemble de valeurs viriles: courage, droiture, sang-froid, persévérance, etc.

WALTARI, MIKA TOIMI (1908-1979) (Grolier; JAAKKO A. AHOKAS) Finland's most frequently translated writer, Mika Toimi Waltari, b. Sept. 19, 1908, d. Aug. 26, 1979, is best known for his historical novel The Egyptian (1945; Eng. trans., 1949; film, 1954), set during the reign of the pharaoh Akhenaten, an early believer in monotheism who came into conflict with an entrenched theocracy. Waltari's nonhistorical fiction, notably A Nail Merchant at Nightfall (1949; Eng. trans., 1954), The Tongue of Fire (1958; Eng. trans., 1959), and The Secret of the Kingdom (1959; Eng. trans., 1960), also deals with religion, as well as with frustrated relations between the sexes. Anna-Elisa Liinamo sent this information: Being a Finn and as such a huge fan of Mika Waltari, I can't but shiver when reading the info on Waltari on a HISTORICAL fiction list... OK, of course "The Egyptian" (Sinuhe egyptilainen) is there, but where are the rest My all-time-favourite is "The Dark Angel" (Johannes Angelos), that is set on last days of Constantinople during Turkish conquest in 1452. Good are also "The Etruscan" (Turms kuolematon), set in Mediterranean area during the heyday of Etruscans some 500 B.C.; the duo "The Adventurer" and "The Wanderer" (Mikael Karvajalka and Mikael Hakim), starting in Finland around mid-1500s , going through Paris, Germany and Rome and ending in Istanbul during Soleiman the Great; and and the duo "The Secret of the Kingdom" and "The Roman" (Valtakunnan salaisuus and Ihmiskunnan viholliset), the first set in Palestine in spring 30 A.D. and the latter in Rome 50-70 A.D., telling together the story of early Christianity.

World War II, Aviation and Spy "Where are those quotes in Dorothy Dunnett's books from?" "_Game of Kings_ also has a brief quote from a chess book at the beginning of each chapter. They are in what I take to be ~16th century English so I found them rather hard to decipher but rewarding to try. I've always wondered whether these quotes were made up or taken from a real book or books. I have great respect for DD's work and believe the quotes are real. But can anyone set my niggling doubts at rest?" - Paul Hollander. "They're from Caxton's book on chess." - Jo Beverley. Ellen Wertheimer suggests "Dorothy Dunnett Companion": "There is a book newly out, called the Dorothy Dunnett Companion, which is available from James Thin Ltd. in Scotland (also on the Internet under James Thin Ltd.) This book has all the quotations in all of the Lymond books and in the first five Niccolo books, with sources for all of them and for the various references in those eleven books."
