Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 2nd Edition. x, 309 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm ISBN 9781859580172, 1859580173 OCLC 59835660 Alfred Perceval Graves was a poet, folklorist, and the father of Robert Graves. He spent his career documenting and translating the songs, legends, and stories of Ireland, and The Irish Fairy Book - published by T. Fisher Unwin in 1909 - represents the fullest expression of that work. It is a collection of forty-three stories drawn from across the Irish tradition: the Tuatha de Danaan, the Sidhe, the banshee, the puca, the fairy hills, and the countless tales of mortals who crossed paths with the otherworld and came back changed. This is not a children's anthology. The stories in this collection are drawn from the full breadth of Irish folklore: tragic, comic, strange, and occasionally brutal. They include contributions from major figures in the Irish literary tradition - Standish O'Grady, Lady Wilde, William Allingham, Samuel Lover, and others - alongside translations of older Irish-language material. Graves understood that these stories were not curiosities. They were the living imagination of a people, preserved in written form at a moment when that imagination was in danger of being lost. The Irish fairy tradition differs from its English or continental equivalents in significant ways. The fairies of Irish legend - the Sidhe - are not charming or benevolent by default. They are powerful, unpredictable, and indifferent to human convenience. The stories in this collection reflect that. They are worth reading not as nostalgia but as literature: precise, strange, and rooted in a worldview that takes the invisible seriously. ; Facsimile. of: ed. published: London : A & C Black, 1938.-Previous ed.: London : T.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a written dialogue between the prophet and God, wherein the prophet questions God about the prevalence of injustice and violence within Judah, and God responds by foretelling the coming punishment to be carried out by the Chaldeans. The prophet expresses his astonishment at this news because the Chaldeans are a nation even more wicked than Judah. God goes on to describe how the proud and insatiable Chaldeans will be punished by the captive nations, and the prophet responds with a song of praise and triumph for when this punishment will take place. The song of triumph is written on a vision, in which the nations describe Godâs righteous judgment upon the Chaldeans in the form of a poetic dialogueâ"lyrically describing God's past and future acts of salvation. The book ends with the prophet expressing his faith in God's covenant faithfulness, his trust in God's deliverance, and his confidence in God's sovereignty over all things. This book is the 17th book of the Tanakh when ordered from earliest to latest, and is one of the 12 minor prophets in the Old Testament. It is set in the historical context of the Babylonian exile, and the book's central theme is the tension between God's justice and mercy.

James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) was an American writer of the early 19th century, whose historical romances depicting colonial and indigenous characters from the 17th to the 19th centuries brought him fame and fortune. He lived much of his boyhood and his last 15 years in Cooperstown, New York, which was founded by his father William Cooper. Felix Octavius Carr Darley (1822-1888), usually credited as F. O. C. Darley, was an American illustrator, known for his illustrations in works by well-known 19th-century authors, including James Fenimore Cooper, Charles Dickens, Mary Mapes Dodge, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Washington Irving, George Lippard, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Donald Grant Mitchell, Clement Clarke Moore, Francis Parkman, Harriet Beecher Stowe and Nathaniel Parker Willis. Over his career, he produced nearly 350 drawings for James Fenimore Cooper, which were later collected in a several-volume edition of Cooper's novels printed from 1859 to 1861.
