Produktinformationen zu „The Fortunes of Nigel / World Classics (ePub)“

Scottish lord Nigel Olifaunt is more than a little naive. So when he arrives in London, he's soon sucked into the chaos of the big city. Pinballing between a lively cast of petty criminals, Templers, and loan sharks, Nigel has to keep his eyes on the ultimate prize: an audience with King James I. Set in the period following the Union of the Crowns, "e;The Fortunes of Nigel"e; takes us into the heart of 17th century London-a sometimes lawless metropolis brimming with possibility. It's an intricate tale that transports you back in time. And its many larger-than-life characters are catnip for fans of Dickens. Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) was a Scottish novelist, historian and poet. He became a key figure within Romanticism-an artistic movement that revered nature, emotion and spontaneity. A prolific author across genre and form, Scott pioneered historical fiction with novels like "e;Waverley"e;, "e;Rob Roy"e; and "e;Ivanhoe"e;. These books married exciting adventures with real events from Britain's turbulent past. Among his best known poems are the epic "e;The Lady of the Lake"e;. Scott's works remain a touchstone of Scottish and European literature. They've also inspired numerous movies, including 1995's "e;Rob Roy"e; starring Liam Neeson.
