Sinopse

This edition contains the English translation and the original text in German.

"Max and Moritz (A Story of Seven Boyish Pranks)" (original: "Max und Moritz - Eine Bubengeschichte in sieben Streichen") is a German language illustrated story in verse. This highly inventive, blackly humorous tale, told entirely in rhymed couplets, was written and illustrated by Wilhelm Busch and published in 1865. It is among the early works of Busch, nevertheless it already features many substantial, effectually aesthetic and formal regularities, procedures and basic patterns of Busch's later works. Many familiar with comic strip history consider it to have been the direct inspiration for the "Katzenjammer Kids" and "Quick & Flupke". The German title satirizes the German custom of giving a subtitle to the name of dramas in the form of "Ein Drama in ... Akten" ("A Drama of ... acts"), which became dictums in colloquial usage for any event with an unpleasant or dramatic course, e.g. "Bundespräsidentenwahl - Drama in drei Akten" ("Federal presidential Elections - Drama in Three Acts").

"Max und Moritz – Eine Bubengeschichte in sieben Streichen" ist ein Werk von Wilhelm Busch. Das Werk wurde am 4. April 1865 erstveröffentlicht und zählt damit zum Frühwerk von Wilhelm Busch. Es weist jedoch im Handlungsgefüge auffällige Gesetzmäßigkeiten und Grundmuster inhaltlicher, stilistischer und wirkungsästhetischer Art auf, die sich auch in den späteren Bildergeschichten von Wilhelm Busch wiederholen. Viele Reime dieser Bildergeschichte wie "Aber wehe, wehe, wehe! / Wenn ich auf das Ende sehe!", "Dieses war der erste Streich, doch der zweite folgt sogleich" und "Gott sei Dank! Nun ist's vorbei / Mit der Übeltäterei!" sind zu geflügelten Worten im deutschen Sprachgebrauch geworden.

    Helen's life is tedious. Maid to a rich but distant couple, she wishes for a little excitement in her life.
     
    But when the prodigal son returns, she gets more that she bargained for. Young Mr. Elliott has a taste for innocent young women—and a dominant and cruel personality. Helen finds herself submitting to his dark desires, and entering a world of pleasure—and of pain!
    
     
    ~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~
     
    “How long have you worked here?’’
     
    “Two years, sir.’’
     
    “Very good. I trust you are a good maid, able to do as you are told?’’ Mr. Elliott asked and Helen felt his eyes on her, looking at her intently. She didn’t dare to lift her eyes, but she was sure that he was still sporting that little smile because she could hear it in his voice.
     
    Helen almost found herself wishing that young Mr. Elliott was more like his parents, cold and snobbish, because they always said what they meant. But young Mr. Elliott seemed to be talking in code, saying one thing with his voice implying another, expecting Helen to understand. Or maybe he wasn’t expecting Helen to understand and dropped in innuendos and insinuations for his own amusement.
     
    “I hope so, sir,’’ she said eventually, doing her best to act like she wasn’t affected by young Mr. Elliott’s games.
     
    “I’d like to see for myself.’’ Mr. Elliott paused and Helen waited with bated breath. “Fetch me some tea, Helen.’’
     
    It was a relief that his order turned out to be so common; Helen had almost expected something… Much less common. She didn’t really know what, but for a moment she had been convinced that he would say something that would make her stutter and blush wildly. Still, she felt herself get a little redder in the face because young Mr. Elliott had addressed her by her given name. It was more than a little bit embarrassing, swooning and blushing like this, but she had never met someone whose presence was so intense.

    Dismissed from the rear palace, Maomao returns to service in the outer court—as the personal serving woman to none other than Jinshi! That doesn’t necessarily make her popular with the other ladies, but a bit of jealousy might be the least of her problems. A mysterious warehouse fire, an official with a very bad case of food poisoning, and the mysterious last will and testament of a deceased craftsman all demand her attention—but are these cases really separate, or do they share a troubling connection? Then there’s the mysterious military man who continually visits Jinshi. He’s strange, maybe even a little twisted... and he seems very interested in Maomao.

    "I assume you intend to assist me? The results of the examination will be much more robust if I can call upon a second pair of hands.”
     
    Emma has already willingly submitted to the firm hand of Lord Fanshawe, the handsome aristocrat who employs her as a maid, but now it seems that he requires even more of her. With the assistance of his friend Dr Hardy, he intends to put Emma through her paces and make sure that she is suitable for his depraved schemes.Will their examination prove just as enjoyable as Emma's last disciplining at the hands of his Lordship? And just what will the Doctor produce from his medical bag...?
     
    ~~~
     
    “Well, Doctor Hardy” he replied. “I was considering taking her to the club and making her perform for the other gentlemen. But as I’m sure you're aware, we have quite stringent standards when it comes to selecting a suitable filly. I was hoping that you would help me to discover whether Emma might be a suitable candidate?”
     
    “Yes, I’m sure that I can,” asked Doctor Hardy. “But remind me, what characteristics should a suitable candidate exhibit?”
     
    His Lordship stroked his moustache before replying. “Well, first of all she must be a virgin. The girl has assured me she is, and I thought that I could feel her maidenhead to be intact, but I don’t have the medical expertise to be entirely sure.”
     
    Doctor Hardy nodded. “Certainly. I can certainly check that for you and give you a definite answer. You’re right to want to be sure. These low-born types are constantly rutting with each other. Even if she was unsullied a week ago, she might well have allowed some stable-boy or manservant to mount her in the meantime. Anything else that I’m looking for?”
     
    “Yes, if you would. You see, it’s no fun at all if the girls we exhibit at the club don’t actually enjoy their performance. If they scream and cry and whatnot it does rather spoil the mood. But some of what we require from them is rather, well – extreme. So I was hoping you could help me put her through her paces and make sure she’s not going to blub and cry at the crucial moment?”
     
    The Doctor rubbed his hands together, seemingly delighted at this request. “Oh, absolutely, it would be my pleasure. I assume you intend to assist me? The results of the examination will be much more robust if I can call upon a second pair of hands.”
