Produktbeschreibung

Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

Autorenporträt

Catherine Gasquoine Hartley, also known as C. Gasquoine Hartley or Mrs. Walter Gallican, was a writer and art historian renowned for her expertise in Spanish art. Born in 1867 in Antananarivo, Madagascar, she later became a significant figure in the field of art history, contributing to the understanding of Spanish art in particular. Hartley's intellectual curiosity expanded beyond art, and she wrote on subjects such as polygamy, motherhood, and sex education, reflecting her broad range of interests. Throughout her life, she was an advocate for deeper societal reflections, addressing issues that were often considered taboo at the time. She passed away on June 9, 1928, in Guildford, United Kingdom, leaving behind a legacy of both scholarly work and thought-provoking social commentary. She was the daughter of a notable family, although her parents' names are not widely recorded. Hartley's contributions, especially in the realms of social thought and the history of art, helped broaden perspectives in the early 20th century. Her works continue to be of interest to those exploring the intersections of art history, social science, and progressive movements of the period.
