Sull'Autore

Hilaire Belloc, 1870 - 1953 Hilaire Belloc was born in France in 1870, educated at Oxford, and naturalized as a British subject in 1902. Although he began as a writer of humorous verse for children, his works include satire, poetry, history, biography, fiction, and many volumes of essays. With his mostra altro close friend and fellow Catholic, G. K. Chesterton, Belloc founded the New Witness, a weekly newspaper opposing capitalism and free thought and supporting a philosophy known as distributism. The pair was so close in thought and association that George Bernard Shaw nicknamed them Chesterbelloc. During his life, Belloc published over 150 books. Today, however, he is best remembered for only a few works, most notably his light verse, such as Cautionary Tales (1907) and A Bad Child's Book of Beasts (1896). Belloc died in 1953 from burns caused when his dressing gown caught fire from the hearth. (Bowker Author Biography) mostra meno

Napoleone: Il sogno infranto di un'Europa unita… di Hilaire Belloc

Biografia di Napoleone non tra le più approfondite che abbia letto: lettura adatta più ai ragazzi che per la prima volta si avvicinano alla figura dell'Imperatore dei francesi che non a chi voglia farsi un'idea approfondita di un'epoca e di un personaggio della quale fu tra gli attori principali.
