Produktinformationen zu „The Leaguer Of Lathom (ePub)“
The Leaguer of Lathom by William Harrison Ainsworth is about the honorable and sacrificing Lord Strange and his duty to the king and Parliament, despite his enemies running his name through the mud and condemning him to death. Excerpt: "You are right," said Lord Strange. "They have persuaded the king that I am ambitious, and have pretensions to the crown like my uncle Ferdinando, and they say I shall desert him as my ancestor, Lord Stanley, deserted, Richard the Third at Bosworth Field, when he gave the crown to his son-in-law, the Earl of Richmond. His majesty, therefore, views my conduct with jealousy and suspicion."
Autoren-Porträt von William Harrison Ainsworth
William Harrison Ainsworth (1805-1882) was an English historical novelist born in Manchester. During the early 19th century, he emerged as a prominent literary figure, known for his engaging, fast-paced historical narratives. His flair for melding accurate historical details with sensational and romantic elements captivated Victorian readers, earning him significant fame during his lifetime. Ainsworth's prolific career produced a rich catalog of works, many of which centered on roguish heroes and dramatic episodes from Britain's past. 'The Leaguer Of Lathom' is a prime example of his literary style, transporting readers to the English Civil War and honoring the exploits and resistance of the Royalists at Lathom House. Ainsworth's work is representative of the era's Gothic revival and the burgeoning appetite for historical fiction, bridging the gap between the romanticized visions of Sir Walter Scott and the burgeoning realism that would mark later Victorian literature. Although his popularity waned after his death, Ainsworth's contribution to the historical novel genre is undeniable, and his vivid storytelling continues to be of interest to historians and literary scholars alike.
