Par šo e-grāmatu

Thomas Hardy's "The Complete Works" is a monumental collection that showcases the literary prowess and thematic depth of one of England's greatest novelists and poets. Rich in symbolism and often tinged with a sense of fatalism, Hardy's works explore the complex interplay of society, nature, and individual destiny. His distinctive narrative style, characterized by vivid descriptions, psychological insight, and a profound understanding of rural life, offers readers a comprehensive glimpse into the struggles and triumphs of human experience against the backdrop of an evolving Victorian landscape. This anthology includes not only his celebrated novels, such as "Tess of the d'Urbervilles" and "Jude the Obscure," but also poetry that reflects his philosophical musings on life, love, and loss. Hardy, born in 1840 in Dorset, England, was profoundly influenced by his rural upbringing and the socio-economic changes of his time. His initial career as an architect ingrained in him a strong appreciation for structure and form, which would later manifest in his novels and poetry. The recurrent themes of tragedy, desire, and moral ambiguity in his works often echo his personal experiences, including the heartaches and societal critiques that shaped his worldview. For readers seeking a deep, introspective journey through the human condition, "The Complete Works" is an indispensable addition to their literary repertoire. Hardy's timeless insights and keen observations remain relevant, making this collection a must-read for those interested in the complexities of life, the limitations of society, and the richness of the human spirit.

Par autoru

Thomas Hardy (1840–1928) was an English novelist and poet, acclaimed for his vivid portrayal of the rural English countryside and the hardships of the working class. Born in Dorset, which would later become the semi-fictional Wessex of his novels, Hardy drew heavily on his regional experience. His major novels, often described as tragic, combine a keen sense of social commentary with a deep empathy for his characters. Hardy's notable works include 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' (1891), 'Far from the Madding Crowd' (1874), 'The Mayor of Casterbridge' (1886), and 'Jude the Obscure' (1895), all of which are included in 'The Complete Works' of Thomas Hardy. His literary style is marked by a pervasive fatalism, exploring themes of destiny, inevitability, and the constraints of social norms. Moreover, Hardy's work is characterized by his eloquent yet haunting prose and his ability to portray complex relationships against the backdrop of changing times. Though much of his fiction was initially received with controversy due to its critique of Victorian moral norms, Hardy's legacy as a central figure in English literature has endured, cementing his place in the literary canon. His poetry, too, demonstrates his range, often reflecting a more personal and philosophical perspective. Through his extensive and emotionally resonant oeuvre, Thomas Hardy remains a seminal figure whose works continue to be studied, adapted, and celebrated for their profound impact on English literature and society.
