«Arria Marcella» is an anthology of fantastic tales by Théophile Gautier, Prosper Mérimée and Edgar Allan Poe, published by Hachette in paperback.
Four nineteenth-century tales bring the fantastic to everyday settings: the opening of an Egyptian sarcophagus, a statue of Venus found in the Pyrenees, the purchase of a mummy's foot from an antiquarian and a conversation with a mummy. Poe, Mérimée and Gautier combine mystery, realism and evocation of Antiquity in these stories.
French-language edition of 96 pages, published in 2011 in the Classique-Collège collection no. 1526 of Livre de Poche Jeunesse.
This edition is aimed at young readers and those who enjoy classic fantastic tales with historical settings.
Pierre Jules Théophile Gautier was a French poet, dramatist, novelist, journalist, and art and literary critic.
