His illustrations of the bible are awesome

I don't know if it's because of the many editions, but I think the correct books in order are: 1. The Three Musketeers 2. Twenty Years After Sometimes divided into: - Twenty Years After (2.1) - Blood Royal (2.2) 3. The Vicomte de Bragellone Sometimes divided into: - The Vicomte de Bragellone (3.1) - Ten Years After (3.2) - Lousie de la Vallière (3.3) - The Man in the Iron Mask (3.4) But also divided in the new 2018 Ellsworth translation into: - Between Two Kings (3.1) - Court of Daggers (3.2) - Devil's Dance (3.3) - Shadow of the Bastille (3.4) - The Man in the Iron Mask (3.5) Then there are two, let's call them, spin-off books: - The Red Sphinx (about cardinal Richelieu) - La Guerre des Femmes (which is basically the historical events of the second books but focusing on the women, Madame de Longeville and the princess of Condé)

I hope we read this in the bookclub next year

I've done this since childhood. I have ADHD and writing everything down helps me to remember what i read. I've got notebooks and notebooks full of things. Im so happy i found your channel ❤

This was such a good informative yet personal video. I loved it! Thank you for sharing!

Couldn’t put it down when I read it first. You’re making me want to reread it!

Currently reading War and Peace and Suetonius Twelves Caesars

Yes

Are all 3 separate story’s or are they all Odysseus and his family’s story’s just in 3 parts? The only one im certain of what its about is the odyssey.

Beautiful journals & such a charming video! Thank you for sharing your ideas! Question: what inks do you use in your fountain pens? All of my inks are sadly not archival or lightfast. Some notes from 5+ years ago already started to fade. Switched back to “modern pens” like Uniball 207 for now, until I find archival inks that won’t ruin my fountain pen nibs. Thanks again for a fantastic video, & also… happy New Year! 😊💝

The love of his work endures through the generations. Somewhere I have a ragged, late nineteenth century copy of "Paradise Lost." Most book collectors wouldn't have given it a nanosecond of consideration due to the condition, but, I couldn't pass it by.

I'd say Naturalisme is more about a "scientific" approach of reality. For example Zola made Jacques Lantier and Étienne Lantier brothers with the same violence issues, due to their mother. Every character has their temper related to their parents, social class, and physical features. I'm glad you liked it so much ! As a french literature student, I need to read it too. Adding it on the (very long) list !

This video is perfect! ❤

Thanks for this video showcasing Gustave Doré's work. I love his illustrations. My parents own a Bible iwith his illustrations and I have heard about him a lot as a child.

I got my copy of your book from Amazon around my birthday. No sprayed edges, as you said, but the cover art is beautiful!

Dore captured some deep archetypal moments with his illustrations. Especially his depictions of Dante’s Divine Comedy and Milton’s Paradise Lost.

What a beautiful illustration book from a good friend!

Les Mis is on my TBR. I absolutely LOVE the musical; it’s my favorite.

I love your cat in the background 😂

I have always appreciated Gustave Doré's art, especially that which he illustrated for the Latin Bible. I am very glad you did a video showcasing his work! I always enjoy your thoughtful videos. God bless!

surely you would find Shrek, Jumanji & Zathura boring too
