Description

Here, in his own translations and in original English versions of his own, Professor Praz has gathered many important essays central to his life's work, in a continuous study of the vital currents which have flowed between two cultures, the English and the Italian. The classic writers of Italy-Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Machiavelli, Ariosto, Tasso, and others-are studied in their effects on English literature.

About the Author
Mario Praz (1896-1982) was Professor of English Language and Literature at the University of Rome. The most celebrated of his many other books is The Romantic Agony.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
