      Mit der Gestalt des Ebenezer Scrooge schuf der große englische Romancier Charles Dickens 1843 eine der im besten Wortsinn merkwürdigsten Figuren der Weltliteratur: Durch den Besuch dreier Weihnachtsgeister am Heiligen Abend wandelt sich der hartherzige Geizhals in einen gütigen und hilfsbereiten Menschen. Unvergleichlich ist auch die Weihnachtserzählung 'Die Silvesterglocken' – witzig, anrührend und wunderbar feierlich.

      One of the BBC's '100 Novels That Shaped Our World' The Penguin English Library Edition of Ivanhoe by Walter Scott 'Fight on, brave knights! Man dies, but glory lives!' Banished from England for seeking to marry against his father's wishes, Ivanhoe joins Richard the Lion Heart on a crusade in the Holy Land. On his return, his passionate desire is to be reunited with the beautiful but forbidden lady Rowena, but he soon finds himself playing a more dangerous game as he is drawn into a bitter power struggle between the noble King Richard and his evil and scheming brother John. The first of Scott's novels to address a purely English subject, Ivanhoe is set in a highly romanticized medieval world of tournaments and sieges, chivalry and adventure where dispossessed Saxons are pitted against their Norman overlords, and where the historical and fictional seamlessly merge. The Penguin English Library - 100 editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century and the very first novels to the beginning of the First World War.
