Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này

In "SHE," Henry Rider Haggard crafts a riveting tale that delves into the realms of adventure, the supernatural, and the exploration of gender dynamics within a colonial context. Set in the uncharted African wilderness, the novel follows the journey of Leo Vincey and his companion as they stumble upon an ancient and enigmatic queen, Ayesha, who embodies the archetype of the eternal feminine. Written in an evocative, Victorian prose style, "SHE" is rich in descriptive language and philosophical musings, reflecting the era's fascination with imperialism, the exotic, and the quest for immortality, establishing it as a precursor to modern fantasy and adventure fiction. Haggard, a British author and a pioneer of the genre, drew inspiration from his own experiences in Africa, where he served as a literary representative for imperialist ideals. His deep-seated interest in mythology and ancient civilizations informed his depiction of Ayesha as both a figure of seduction and a critique of European notions of civilization. Haggard's personal journey, coupled with his keen observations of social dynamics during the late 19th century, undoubtedly shaped the narrative of "SHE." I highly recommend "SHE" to readers interested in the intersections of adventure and philosophical inquiry, as it offers not only thrilling escapades but also a profound exploration of power, identity, and humanity's eternal questions. Haggard's vivid storytelling and complex characters will captivate both enthusiasts of classic literature and modern readers alike.

Giới thiệu tác giả

Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856–1925) was an English writer known for his contributions to the adventure and fantasy genres. Born in Bradenham, Norfolk, Haggard developed a fascination with the worlds beyond England's shores from a young age. His adventurous spirit was further fanned by his experience in South Africa, where he served as secretary to the governor of Natal. Haggard's time in Africa exposed him to regional tales and histories, lending authenticity to his imaginative writings. His most celebrated work, 'She' (1887), is a Lost World classic that exemplifies his characteristic blend of mysticism, romance, and exoticism. Described as a powerful influence on the modern fantasy genre, 'She' takes readers on a journey to uncharted territories, featuring the enigmatic and immortal Ayesha, the eponymous 'She-who-must-be-obeyed.' Haggard's narrative style is marked by vivid descriptions and a suspenseful pacing that keeps the reader engrossed in the unfolding adventure. Alongside 'She', Haggard's notable contributions include 'King Solomon's Mines' and the 'Allan Quatermain' series, which cemented his reputation as a master of the adventure tale. His works have enjoyed lasting popularity, inspiring numerous adaptations and enchanting generations of readers with their timeless appeal to the imagination.
