Short Stories (Household Words, 1854-58)

Rate this audiobook

Elizabeth Gaskell published 18 short works in Charles Dickens’ Household Words between 1850 and 1858. This collection follows the Librivox collection of the 1850-1853 works, with recordings of 7 Household Words pieces published between 1854 and 1858. The collection includes two of Gaskell’s most important shorter works: Half a Lifetime Ago, set in the English Lake District, and The Poor Clare, in which the bewitched heroine is pursued by a mischievous double. The Sin of a Father and The Manchester Marriage are both tales with a message. The collection begins with three documentary pieces that emerged from Gaskell’s travels in France.

Lima Barreto começou a sua colaboração na imprensa desde estudante, em 1902, no A Quinzena Alegre, depois no Tagarela, O Diabo, e na Revista da Época. Em jornais de maior circulação, começou em 1905, escrevendo no Correio da Manhã uma série de reportagens sobre a demolição do Morro do Castelo. Daí em diante, colaborou em vários jornais e revistas, Fon-Fon, Floreal, Gazeta da Tarde, Jornal do Commercio, Correio da Noite, A Noite (onde publicou, em folhetim, Numa e a Ninfa), Careta, ABC, um novo A Lanterna (vespertino), Brás Cubas (semanário), Hoje, Revista Souza Cruz e O Mundo Literário. Lima Barreto foi o crítico mais agudo da época da República Velha no Brasil, rompendo com o nacionalismo ufanista e pondo a nu a roupagem da República, que manteve os privilégios de famílias aristocráticas e dos militares. Em sua obra, de temática social, privilegiou os pobres, os boêmios e os arruinados. Foi severamente criticado pelos seus contemporâneos parnasianos por seu estilo despojado, fluente e coloquial, que acabou influenciando os escritores modernistas. Também queria que a sua literatura fosse militante. Escrever tinha finalidade de criticar o mundo circundante para despertar alternativas renovadoras dos costumes e de práticas que, na sociedade, privilegiavam pessoas e grupos. Para ele, o escritor tinha uma função social. (Extraído da Wikipedia)     [chương_files]
