Product Details
- Gotik terimini edebiyat alanında ilk kullanan kişi olarak bilinen Walpole, 1764’te kendi özel basımevinde hazırladığı Otranto Şatosu’nun toplumda nasıl karşılanacağını kestiremediği için, kitabı XVI. yüzyıldan kalma İtalyanca eski bir elyazmasının çevirisi olarak sundu. İlk baskının kapağında Otranto Aziz Nicholas Kilisesi Kilise Heyeti Üyesi Onuphrio’nun yazdığı İtalyanca aslından William Marshal tarafından çevrilmiştir ibaresi vardı. İkinci baskıdaysa ne çevirmen adı vardı, ne de yazar. Şöyle der Walpole bir mektubunda: Uyandığımda o düşten anımsadığım tek şey, kendimi bir Ortaçağ şatosunda görmemdi (benim gibi kafası Gotik hikâyelerle dolu biri için bu mekân çok doğal sayılır); hayli yüksek bir merdivenin en tepesinde, tırabzanın üzerinde son derece büyük bir zırhlı el gördüm. O akşam oturdum ve ne söyleyeceğimi, ne anlatacağımı bilmeden yazmaya koyuldum. Yazdıkça hikâye gelişti, benim de hoşuma gitmeye başladı (üstelik politikadan başka bir şey düşünebildiğim için de çok seviniyordum); kısacası kendimi öylesine kaptırdım ki, kitabı iki aydan kısa sürede bitirdim.Ürünün baskısı görseldeki ile farklılık gösterebilir.

Horace Walpole Editorial Review
The "Otranto Şatosu Kağıt Kapak" has garnered a generally positive reception among readers, particularly those appreciative of classic Gothic literature. Many reviewers highlight the compelling narrative structure and the timeless quality of the story, suggesting that it remains engaging even when read through a contemporary lens. Despite the age of the text, readers are encouraged to immerse themselves in the intricate storytelling and historical context that defines this genre. Most customers report satisfaction with the book's physical condition upon arrival, noting that the quality was solid and free from damage. A few reviewers mentioned the absence of additional inclusions like bookmarks, which some found disappointing. Nonetheless, the favorable prices and overall value of the book were frequently praised, making it an appealing option for readers looking to explore Gothic fiction without breaking the bank. However, while the majority of feedback was positive, there were occasional mentions of receiving a damaged book or the lack of a bookmark, which detracted from a perfect experience. Overall, "Otranto Şatosu" stands out as a recommended read for Gothic literature enthusiasts, combining a rich narrative and attractive pricing. **
