Elsket and Other Stories
Elsket and Other Stories displays Thomas Nelson Page's characteristic movement between romance, memory, and regional portraiture. The title tale, set in a stark northern landscape, joins the collection's broader concern with loyalty, sacrifice, and idealized devotion, while other stories draw upon the idioms, manners, and social hierarchies of the postbellum South. Written in a polished yet sentimental style, often enriched by dialect and nostalgic framing, the volume belongs to the late-nineteenth-century tradition of American local-color fiction and the plantation school. Page, born in Virginia in 1853, was shaped by the Civil War's aftermath and by a family history tied to the old planter class. Trained as a lawyer and later prominent as a writer and diplomat, he transformed inherited memories of Virginia society into fiction that sought to preserve a vanishing world. His work reflects both literary craftsmanship and the ideological limits of the Lost Cause imagination. Readers interested in American regionalism, Reconstruction-era memory, and the cultural politics of nostalgia will find this collection rewarding. It should be read appreciatively but critically, as artful storytelling and as a revealing document of its age.

Natale nella vecchia Virginia
I racconti natalizi di Thomas Nelson Page, autore americano da scoprire, finora inedito in Italia. Atmosfere e scene della vecchia Virginia, intrise di un¿intensa nostalgia per l¿èra delle piantagioni, con l¿intento di restituire dignità e verosimiglianza storica alla cultura del Vecchio Sud. Thomas Nelson Page ¿ autore finora inedito in Italia ¿ scrisse molti racconti e romanzi ambientati nelle piantagioni di Virginia Tidewater prima della Guerra civile. Convinto che i vittoriosi Nordisti avessero dato una rappresentazione distorta della storia e della gente del Sud, con la sua opera mira a restituire dignità e verosimiglianza storica alla cultura del Vecchio Sud, contribuendo alla creazione dell¿immagine della `Lost Cause¿ (la Causa Persa) della Guerra civile, esaltando le virtù della coraggiosa lotta degli eroi del Sud nonostante l¿inevitabile rovina. Questa l¿ispirazione per alcuni dei suoi racconti natalizi, in cui si parla dell¿importanza dei propri luoghi d¿origine. Atmosfere e scene della `Ole Virginiä (la Vecchia Virginia), intrise di un¿intensa nostalgia.
