"La Dame aux camélias" raconte l'histoire des amants maudits, Marguerite et Armand, que les jugements moraux et la maladie vont détruire : le roman d'un désastre amoureux où les sentiments sont bafoués au profit de la bienséance sociale.

It wasn't all musketeers, mysterious ladies, poisoned gloves, and palace intrigue.... Sometimes, Alexandre Dumas stepped back from historic misadventures and wrote fairy tales - and a very good job he did of it, too.

Qui gli viene confermato dall'armatore Pierre Morrel, proprietario della Pharaon, che verrà ufficialmente nominato capitano: ma questa non è l'unica buona notizia, Edmond può infatti finalmente riabbracciare il suo povero e vecchio padre e sposare la donna che ama, la catalana Mercedes.

Romanen inleds med en bestialisk lynchning på den nederländske makthavaren Johan de Witt men utvecklas så småningom till en kärleksroman. Staden Haarlem utlyser en belöning på 100 000 holländska gulden till den som kan odla en svart tulpan. Landets mest berömda trädgårdsmästare tävlar om pengarna och äran. I centrum står Cornelius van Baerle, som strax innan han lyckas kastas i fängelse. Där möter han fångvaktarens dotter Rosa.

Da han imidlertid mister sit introduktionsbrev til lederen af musketererne, de Tréville, sker det dog ikke uden videre. Men allerede den første dag møder han musketererne Athos, Porthos og Aramis, heraf vaerkets titel, og sammen med dem drager han ud på adskillige eventyr i dronningens tjeneste, ikke mindst med kardinal Richelieu og den infame Milady de Winter.

The tragic but doomed love of Marguerite and Armand became one of the great love stories from its first publication in 1848. In this sound dramatization of the consumptive heroine's ultimate sacrifice, the story of passion and conflict is fresh and compelling as when it was first written.

An adventure story primarily concerned with themes of hope, justice, vengeance, mercy, and forgiveness, it focuses on a man who is wrongfully imprisoned, escapes from jail, acquires a fortune and sets about getting revenge on those responsible for his imprisonment. However, his plans have devastating consequences for the innocent as well as the guilty.

The story of France from the Renaissance to the 19th century, as Dumas vibrantly retold it in his numerous enormously popular novels, has long been absent one vital, richly historical era: the Age of Napoleon. But no longer. Now dynamically, in a tale of family honor and undying vengeance, of high adventure and heroic derring-do, The Last Cavalier fills that gap.

Dumas udgav Greven af Monte Cristo som føljetonroman (1830-ernes og 40-ernes store dille) fra august 1844 til januar 1846. Den må i dag betragtes som en af de største klassikere, genoptrykt i utallige udgaver og filmatiseret gentagne gange og stadig uhyre populær. Er baseret på Poul Einer Hansens fine nyoversættelse i et letforståeligt moderne dansk, der bevarer romanens struktur, uden at beskære den for personer eller scener, i en strammere, mere økonomisk fortælleform.

17th Century France. Dashing young swordsman D’Artagnan heads for Paris, dreaming of serving the King as a member of his elite guard. On arrival, he meets the three musketeers - Athos, Porthos and Aramis - and the four men soon become fast friends. Together, they strive to outwit the murderous schemes of power-hungry Cardinal Richelieu, and save the Queen from a plot to dishonour her. Their adventures take them on a perilous journey through the French countryside and across the Channel to England....

The novel, a deceptively simple story, is set in Holland in 1672 during the amazing tulipmania of the 17th century that brought wealth to some and ruin to many. The story weaves the historical events surrounding the brutal murder of John de Witte and his brother Cornelius into a tale of romantic love. The novel is also a political allegory in which Dumas makes his case against tyranny and puts all his energies into creating a symbol of justice and tolerance: the fateful tulipa negra.
