Book Synopsis The Raven (Illustrated) by : Edgar Allan Poe

Download or read book The Raven (Illustrated) written by Edgar Allan Poe. This book was released on 2013-09-13. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Top Five Classics illustrated edition of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven includes: • All 25 illustrations by Gustave Doré for Harper & Brothers’ 1884 edition • An informative Introduction • A detailed Biography of Edgar Allan Poe • The illustrated version and text-only version of the full poem No poem has ever received the kind of immediate and overwhelming response that Poe’s “The Raven” did when it first appeared in the New York Evening Mirror on January 29, 1845. It made Poe an overnight sensation (though his great fame never brought him much wealth) and the poem, a powerfully haunting elegy to lost love, remains one of the most beloved and recognizable verses in the English language. The illustrations that accompany this Top Five Classics edition are reproductions of the renowned French artist Gustave Doré’s steel-plate engravings created for Harper & Brothers’ 1884 release of The Raven. It would be Doré’s last commission as he died shortly after completing the 25 illustrations in January 1883. His illustrations would become famous in their own right, evoking as they do the lyrical and mystical air of Poe’s masterpiece.

Book Synopsis How Raven Stole the Sun by : Maria Williams

Download or read book How Raven Stole the Sun written by Maria Williams. This book was released on 2001-06-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long time ago, Raven was pure white, like fresh snow in winter. This was so long ago that the only light came from campfires, because a greedy chief kept the stars, moon, and sun locked up in elaborately carved boxes. Determined to free them, the shape-shifting Raven resourcefully transformed himself into the chief's baby grandson and cleverly tricked him into opening the boxes and releasing the starlight and moonlight. Though tired of being stuck in human form, Raven maintained his disguise until he got the chief to open the box with the sun and flood the world with daylight, at which point he gleefully transformed himself back into a raven. When the furious chief locked him in the house, Raven was forced to escape through the small smokehole at the top — and that's why ravens are now black as smoke instead of white as snow. This engaging Tlingit story is brought to life in painterly illustrations that convey a sense of the traditional life of the Northwest Coast peoples. About the Tales of the People series: Created with the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), Tales of the People is a series of children's books celebrating Native American culture with illustrations and stories by Indian artists and writers. In addition to the tales themselves, each book also offers four pages filled with information and photographs exploring various aspects of Native culture, including a glossary of words in different Indian languages.

Book excerpt: The journey between puberty and that of becoming a woman is not an easy one. And Raven is finding out that the path she has chosen is filled with unimaginable hardship. Frustrated with her family and filled with the guilt of those she has hurt, Raven runs away from home. Finding herself alone and lost in the wilderness, she must now confront her fears and the elements. Guided by the Creator, Raven is led to a hidden valley. There, she will regain her faith and find the hidden skills she will need to survive in Shadowland. The passing of time is but a small part of the journey we all must face. Our lives are dictated by the pathes we take, and subsequently, we must endure the consequences of those choices. These things still hold true today, as much so as they did when God first created man.
