又名《七十二朝四书人物演义》，是明代的一部较为特殊的白话小说集，共四十卷，每卷独立成篇。与其他小说不同的是，这四十篇文字正文所写的人物和事件都源于“四书”，每卷题目也均取自“四书”中的原句。因其所描写的“四书”中提及的人物分属于春秋列朝，“那时天下有七十二国”，故冠之以“七十二朝人物”。孙楷第先生在《中国通俗小说书目》中将之置于“明清小说部甲”中，但又视其为“译述性质”，认为“去通俗小说甚远”，因此“姑附诸书之后”，表明其体制的特殊性。据孙楷第先生著录，有明刊本，日本内阁文库、静嘉堂文库藏；光绪丁酉上海十万卷楼石印本，每卷有图，有总评、旁评。石印本封面题“李卓吾先生秘本”，“诸名家汇评写像”，有庚辰仲春癯道人序和空冷散人、磊道人二序。
“The Aeneid” is considered by some to be one of the most important epic poems of all time. The story is as much one of the great epic hero, Aeneas, as it is of the foundation of the Roman Empire. Aeneas, a Trojan Prince who escapes after the fall of troy, travels to Italy to lay the foundations for what would become the great Roman Empire. Virgil’s “Aeneid” is a story of great adventure, war, love, and of the exploits of an epic hero. In the work Virgil makes his commentary on the state of Rome during the Rule of Augustus. It was a time that had been previously ravaged by civil wars and with the reign of Augustus order and peace had begun to be restored. That order had a price though. Many of the freedoms of the old Roman Republic had been lost under the new Imperialistic Rome. This loss of freedom and the debate over the virtues of a Roman Republic versus an Imperialistic Rome was central to Virgil’s time and is interwoven throughout the poetic narrative of “The Aeneid.” Virgil’s work forms the historical foundation for the argument of the empire over the republic as the best form of government. This edition is translated into English verse by John Dryden, includes an introduction by Harry Burton, and is printed on premium acid-free paper.
Childhood is the first published novel by Leo Tolstoy, released under the initials L. N. in the November 1852 issue of the popular Russian literary journal The Contemporary. It is the first in a series of three novels and is followed by Boyhood and Youth. Published when Tolstoy was just twenty-three years old, the book was an immediate success, earning notice from other Russian novelists including Ivan Turgenev, who heralded the young Tolstoy as a major up-and-coming figure in Russian literature.
