The Temple (9780241303078)



A collectible new Penguin Classics series: stunning, clothbound editions of ten favourite poets, which present each poet's most famous book of verse as it was originally published. Designed by the acclaimed Coralie Bickford-Smith and beautifully set, these slim, A format volumes are the ultimate gift editions for poetry lovers.

On his deathbed George Herbert entrusted the manuscript of The Temple to his friend Nicholas Ferrar, asking him to publish it if he thought it was worthy. Herbert died in 1633 and the collection was published the same year to great acclaim, subsequently becoming one of the best-loved collections in the English language. The Temple is an astounding collection of verse poems: an extended meditation on man's relationship to God that is characterised by Herbert's clarity and directness of style. It includes such favourites as 'The Collar', 'The Pearl' and 'Love', with its beautiful opening lines: 'Love bade me welcome; yet my soul drew back, / Guilty of dust and sin'.

Die Grafen Von Wernigerode (9783837028201)

Der n rdliche Harzvorraum im sp ten Mittelalter: Zahlreiche weltliche und geistliche Potentaten konkurrieren im Ausbau eigener Herrschaftsbereiche um mannigfache Besitz- und Rechtspositionen. In dieser Epoche treten aus dem Kreis der bedeutendsten Harzgrafengeschlechter seit dem ausgehenden 13. Jahrhundert die Grafen von Wernigerode hervor, die durch planvolle Erwerbs- und Herrschaftspolitik sowie durch enge Beziehungen zum sp tmittelalterlichen K nigtum eine exponierte Rechtsstellung am Nordwestharz einzunehmen beginnen.

Till We Have Faces (9780008391447)

Fascinated by the myth of Cupid and Psyche throughout his life, C. S. Lewis reimagines their story from the perspective of Psyche's sister, Orual. 'I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer . . . Why should they hear the babble that we think we mean? How can they meet us face to face till we have faces?'

In this, his final - and most mature and masterful - novel, Lewis reminds us of our own fallibility and the role of a higher power in our lives. Product details Format Paperback | 368 pages ...
