The First Last Man: Mary Shelley and the Postapocalyptic Imagination

Posted By: First1

Date: 19 Apr 2024 06:00:29

Beyond her most famous creation—the nightmarish vision of Frankenstein's Creature—Mary Shelley's most enduring influence on politics, literature, and art perhaps stems from the legacy of her lesser-known novel about the near-extinction of the human species through war, disease, and corruption. This novel, The Last Man (1826), gives us the iconic image of a heroic survivor who narrates the history of an apocalyptic disaster in order to save humanity—if not as a species, then at least as the practice of compassion or humaneness. In visual and musical arts from 1826 to the present, this postapocalyptic figure has transmogrified from the "last man" into the globally familiar filmic images of the "invisible man" and the "final girl."

Delphi Complete Works of the Earl of Chesterfield Illustrated

Date: 27 Mar 2024 04:22:22

Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield was a statesman, diplomat, man of letters and acclaimed wit of the eighteenth century. His winning manners and urbanity were praised by many, including Alexander Pope, John Gay and Voltaire. Although an accomplished essayist and epigrammatist, Chesterfield's literary reputation today derives from 'Letters to His Son', as well as 'Letters to His Godson', which are in fact works of private correspondence and paternal and avuncular advice, never intended for publication.
