A tale of star-crossed young love set against the backdrop of the Viking invasion of York, from a master storyteller. Tor is the youngest son of Harald Hardrada, King of Norway and leader of the Viking fleet, whose countless victories have been woven into song, his prowess the stuff of legend. Kata knows little of her parents, but her heart yearns for something beyond the small world of her Anglo-Saxon village south of the great city of York. When Tor is sent to scout ahead of the Viking fleet after their invasion of Scarborough, he relies on his charm and his guile to learn the lie of the land and the location of the regional earls' forces, ready to report back to his father. Soon, however, he meets Kata, a caring and capable young woman whose fierce nature sets Tor's heart alight. But these are troubled times. Mistrust and rumours ripple through the land: the mighty Hardrada is coming and help is far from hand. As the eve of battle draws closer, Kata and Tor must question to whom their loyalty lies: heart or home?

The illustrious creators of Arthur, the Always King return with a tale within a tale, focused on a heroic West Saxon king who championed the power of storytelling. When Wulfstan, an intrepid ninth-century sailor, arrives at King Alfred's court, he soon enchants the king with his riveting tale of stormy seas, thrilling races on horseback, and a ruler encased in ice. In this extraordinary collaboration, the award-winning Kevin Crossley-Holland and former British Children's Laureate Chris Riddell reunite to bring Wulfstan's tale, and the world of King Alfred the Great, to life. Told in lyrical prose and richly illustrated, this story of a West Saxon king known for fighting off the Vikings will captivate readers of all ages. An author's note details King Alfred's wish to enable his people to read books in their own language, learning Latin himself so he could translate the written works into English and incorporate tales of northern lands, such as the one retold here, that were recounted to him by travelers.

Step into the Anglo-Saxon world of King Alfred the Great in a lyrical retelling from a Carnegie Medal-winning author and Kate Greenaway Medal-winning former Children's Laureate. Alfred the Great is one of the most iconic rulers in British history and the only one to be known as "Great". Not only did he mount a fierce resistance against Viking invaders, he was also a keen scholar and collector of stories. He welcomed travellers with a tale to his court, which brings in the intrepid sailor Wulfstan. Wulfstan dazzles Alfred's court with a story of shipwrecks, horse-racing and a ruler buried in ice. Kevin Crossley-Holland has translated Wulfstan's thrilling tale from the Anglo-Saxon into a rhythmic prose poem with lavish artwork by Chris Riddell.

Harald in Byzantium

Harald in Byzantium

Kevin Crossley-Holland

ARC PUBLICATIONS
2022
muu
Harald Hardrada was the greatest warrior of his age. Wounded, aged 15, at Stiklestad (1030), the most savage battle ever fought on Norwegian soil, he went on to fight in Russia, Byzantium, Sicily, the Balkans, Asia Minor and Jerusalem. He returned to Norway in 1045 to contest and win the crown and was killed in the battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066. A man of ferocious energy, burning ambition, cunning, cruelty and vengefulness, and a man enormously attractive to women, Harald is a larger-than-life figure and one that has fascinated the poet Kevin Crossley-Holland. In this sequence of short poems, he assumes the persona of Harald during his formative years in Byzantium and writes about his engagement with warfare, leadership and love. Passionate, terse and often witty, these poems - revelations rather than narratives - contrast the glittering hard-edged northern world, still half in thrall to the old Norse gods, with the softer, more seductive south.

Kevin Crossley-Holland’s name will be familiar to readers of all ages for his historical novels, his re-telling of the Norse myths and his many volumes of poetry. Previously published by the late Enitharmon Press, he is a very welcome newcomer to Arc with his twelfth collection – his first for six years – inspired by the “heavenly squelch” of his own north Norfolk where “the word on the tip of your tongue may be sacramental”. As Ronald Blythe puts it: “His language has been honed by the Norfolk and Suffolk climate itself, and has the polish of split flint.”

Klassikkosadut tutuiksi uusille sukupolville. Tässä yhdentoista Grimmin sadun kokoelmassa eläimet näyttävät, mihin pystyvät. Kuuluisassa tarinassa Bremenin pelimannit aasi, koira, kissa ja kukko säikäyttävät rosvojoukon tiehensä, ja kettu jekuttaa usein joko ihmisiä tai muita eläimiä. Sadussa Lintujen kuningas taas käy selville, miksi pöllö on yöeläin. Kansanperinteestä kumpuavat, vertauskuvalliset kertomukset saavat nykylukijankin pohtimaan, mikä oikeastaan on oikein ja väärin. Monesti eläimet joutuvat pulaan siksi, että ihmiset haluavat luopua hyvin palvelleesta hevosesta tai koirasta, kun siitä on tullut liian vanha. Sadut antavatkin osuvia opetuksia muun muassa uskollisuudesta ja petturuudesta sekä ystävyyden arvosta. Grimmin veljekset keräsivät mittavan kokoelman länsimaista kansanperinnettä kiertämällä kylästä kylään ja tallettamalla tarinoita, jotka ovat keskenään hyvin eri tavoin kerrottuja. Tämä kokoelma on valittu ja käännetty saksasta englanniksi tarkalla korvalla ja monipuolisuuteen pyrkien. Kaunis kuvitus tukee kokonaisuutta. Uusi ja oivaltava suomennos tuo sadut lähelle etenkin ääneen luettuna.
