Synopsis

“The Pillars of the Earth is a historical novel by Welsh author Ken Follett published in 1989 about the building of a cathedral in the fictional town of Kingsbridge, England. Set in the 12th century, the novel covers the time between the sinking of the White Ship and the murder of Thomas Becket, but focuses primarily on the Anarchy. The book traces the development of Gothic architecture out of the preceding Romanesque architecture, and the fortunes of the Kingsbridge priory and village against the backdrop of historical events of the time. ---------- See also: - [The Pillars of the Earth: 1/2](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL23632562W) - [The Pillars of the Earth: 2/2](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL23632516W)”

Synopsis

“The book revolves on the struggles of young Crisostomo Ibarra: how he humbly fights for his childhood sweetheart Maria Clara, for himself and for his fellowmen against the Spanish priest Padre Damaso and the Spanish Government who were then conquerors of San Diego, his native hometown. Coming home to San Diego from Spain to mourn for his father's death, he learned how his father, a rich illustrado, suffered prior to his death. However, he was surprised by the facts how his father had been treated during a trial and after he died. After learning about this, he decided to continue his father's plan of building a school while reuniting with Maria Clara, his childhood sweetheart from a wealthy family while the former parish priest Padre Damaso keeps on rejecting both. Thus, the story of how the Filipinos got afflicted with the "Cancer of the Society" during the Spanish era is told by none other than the National Hero of the Philippines. Many characters who symbolize every type of Filipino during those times have revolved around these characters. Get a glimpse of how the Filipinos fight for their own right, in their own ways during the 17th century.”

Synopsis

“War and Peace delineates in graphic detail events surrounding the French invasion of Russia, and the impact of the Napoleonic era on Tsarist society, as seen through the eyes of five Russian aristocratic families. The novel begins in the year 1805 during the reign of Tsar Alexander I and leads up to the 1812 French invasion of Russia by Napoleon. The era of Catherine the Great (1762–1796), when the royal court in Paris was the centre of western European civilization,[16] is still fresh in the minds of older people. Catherine, fluent in French and wishing to reshape Russia into a great European nation, made French the language of her royal court. For the next one hundred years, it became a social requirement for members of the Russian nobility to speak French and understand French culture.[16] This historical and cultural context in the aristocracy is reflected in War and Peace. Catherine's grandson, Alexander I, came to the throne in 1801 at the age of 24. In the novel, his mother, Marya Feodorovna, is the most powerful woman in the Russian court. War and Peace tells the story of five aristocratic families — the Bezukhovs, the Bolkonskys, the Rostovs, the Kuragins and the Drubetskoys—and the entanglements of their personal lives with the history of 1805–1813, principally Napoleon's invasion of Russia in 1812. The Bezukhovs, while very rich, are a fragmented family as the old Count, Kirill Vladimirovich, has fathered dozens of illegitimate sons. The Bolkonskys are an old established and wealthy family based at Bald Hills. Old Prince Bolkonsky, Nikolai Andreevich, served as a general under Catherine the Great, in earlier wars. The Moscow Rostovs have many estates, but never enough cash. They are a closely knit, loving family who live for the moment regardless of their financial situation. The Kuragin family has three children, who are all of questionable character. The Drubetskoy family is of impoverished nobility, and consists of an elderly mother and her only son, Boris, whom she wishes to push up the career ladder.”

Synopsis

“Headstrong and naive, the young Italian aristocrat Fabrizio del Dongo is determined to defy the wrath of his right-wing father and go to war to fight for Napoleon. He stumbles on the Battle of Waterloo, ill-prepared, yet filled with enthusiasm for war and glory. Finally heeding advice, Fabrizio sneaks back to Milan, only to become embroiled in a series of amorous exploits, fuelled by his impetuous nature and the political chicanery of his aunt Gina and her wily lover. Judged by Balzac to be the most important French novel of its time, *The Charterhouse of Parma* is a compelling novel of extravagance and daring, blending the intrigues of the Italian court with the romance and excitement of youth.”

Synopsis

“Romance histórico e épico sobre o famoso grupo de jovens cavaleiros que formaram a ala esquerda da armada portuguesa na batalha de Aljubarrota e que pelos seus feitos na batalha se distinguiram. Foram chamados de “Ala dos namorados” por terem idades entre os 18 e os 25 anos, nenhum deles casado, e por serem ousados, um pouco inconsequentes mas destemidos e aventureiros, muitos dos quais viriam a tornar-se nos maiores heróis da cavalaria medieval portuguesa. * * * Publicada pela primeira vez em 1905, o obra “Ala dos Namorados” gozou de uma relativa popularidade, sobretudo graças à fama que António Campos Júnior gracejou depois de fazer a peça “Torpeza” – um libelo patriótico contra o Ultimato Inglês e que fez um sucesso tão grande que nos teatros onde foi representada, o público saudava-a, à subida do pano, cantando de pé o Hino «A Portuguesa». Seguindo as pesadas de Alexandre Herculano, Campos Júnior oferece-nos um Romance Histórico, escrito a partir das informações tiradas das crónicas medievais deixadas pelos cronistas das Cortes, sobretudo o cronista Fernão Lopes. Sendo um homem da marinha e um historiador bélico, Campos Júnior prima-se pelos detalhes históricos, indo ainda mais longe nesse aspeto que o próprio Herculano. Contudo, se por um lado foi extremamente rigoroso nos aspetos históricos, também foi excessivamente romântico e melodramático. Nesta sua obra, por exemplo, à uma percepção que Campos Júnior estaria a emular os antigos Romances de Cavalaria intercalando com Crónicas Históricas, acabando por não apresentar nem um, nem outro. Talvez por causa dessa idiossincrasia o autor não tenha gozado de grande reconhecimento como outros escritores do seu tempo. No entanto a sua obra prima-se por uma tenacidade e um sentido épico incomparável noutros romances históricos da mesma época. https://www.luso-livros.net/Livro/ala-dos-namorados/”
