This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 3793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There is something at work in my soul which I do not understand..." Mary Shelley: literary queen of the Romantic era, deeply influenced by the Gothic tradition, and arguably the matriarch of the Science Fiction genre. Her works, though composed in the 1800s, contain elements straight out of today's headlines: the tension between what science can do vs. what it should do, cryonics, contagion, apocalypse and other dark futuristic themes. Shelley introduced the world to the first "mad scientist" character in her most popular work, Frankenstein, inspiring generations of horror stories, films, and comic books. This collection includes: Novels Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus Mathilda The Last Man Valperga Lodore Falkner The Fortunes of Perkin Warbeck Children's Literature Proserpine & Midas Short Stories The Dream The Mortal Immortal The Evil Eye The Invisible Girl The Heir of Mondolfo Transformation Non-Fiction Notes to the Complete Poetical Works of Percy Bysshe Shelley Biography Mrs. Shelley by Lucy Madox Rosetti Audiobook Links: Links to download free, full-length audiobooks for some of Mary Shelley's works can be found at the end of the book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the short story help to redefine modernism, postmodernism and their interrelationship? What is the status of the short story in modern literary history? These are the central questions that the essays collected in this volume try to answer from different perspectives through readings of short fiction in English and accounts of the genre’s theorisations. The essays by a group of international scholars tackle theoretical issues that are central in approaches to both “movements” such as periodisation, autonomy, high vs. popular literature, totality vs. fragmentation, surface vs. depth, otherness, representation, and, above all, the subject and its vicissitudes. Because it blends theory-based arguments into the approaches to the short fiction of mainly canonical authors (Joyce, Woolf, Lewis, Ballard, Carter, Rushdie, or Wallace), Modernism, Postmodernism, and the Short Story in English is of interest not only to readers and scholars of the short story, but also to those coming from the fields of literary theory and literary history.
