The sterling silver fluted cap and the rhodium-plated karat gold nib, with its engraving of the monogram of Charles Dickens, provide an elegant finishing touch to this tribute to the most famous author of the Victorian era. Charles Dickens is still one of the best-known and most frequently read authors of English literature.
His unique skill for creating true pictures from words, his unerring feel for the mood of Victorian England and the power and passion of his trenchant and satirical narratives have alternately made his readers laugh and moved them to tears.
The Writers Edition F. Scott Fitzgerald revives the glamour of the "Roaring Twenties". The shimmering white barrel forms a striking contrast to the black precious resin cap, which is decorated by the signature of F. Scott Fitzgerald. Dignified tribute is paid to the origins of the legendary Art Deco style by the delicately engraved s urban skyline that decorates the rhodium-plated karat gold nib.
The roaring twenties were the age of extravagance and Art Deco. The people of its jazz age generation had a ball with the Charleston and champagne — and F.
Scott Fitzgerald was their idol. The Writers Edition Jules Verne delves deep into the fascinating world of the writer. The barrel, made of bright blue lacquer with platinum-plated mountings, is surrounded by a guilloche consisting of even-sized waves. In his novels, Jules Verne took his readers away on fantastic journeys: voyages around the world, deep under the sea or to the moon. He excited the imaginations of the people of his time with his fictional adventures, and also created a new genre: science fiction.
Jules Verne is still considered the father, and at the same time the most important exponent, of this genre of literature. Top, clip and rings made of sterling silver offer a thrilling contrast to the dark red translucent aura of the barrel. The design of the Writers Edition Miguel de Cervantes was inspired by the windmills whose shape is reflected in the writing instrument and clip.
Their form, tapering in opposing directions, symbolises the different characters of the hero Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza. The handmade karat gold nib is delicately engraved with the outline of a windmill. After several adventurous stages in his life, he was imprisoned for embezzlement.
Here he finally found the time to begin his masterpiece about an impoverished nobleman who considers himself to be a noble knight. In the form of waves, the guilloche work covers the body of jet-black precious resin, underlining the lightly curved silhouette. The carat gold nib reveals the tragic end of the successful writer: the two elm trees, under which Virginia Woolf found her last resting place on her estate in Sussex in , are masterfully engraved for eternity in the handmade nib.
Virginia Woolf is considered to be one of the first representatives of classical modernism. There is no doubt that Virginia Woolf was one of the most pioneering and innovative female novelists of the early 20th century. Her rejection of Victorian conversations and her radical renunciation of literary traditions derived from an intellectually outstanding mind and a strong character.
The black-brown precious resin, shimmering like mother-of-pearl, meets the bright brilliance of the platinum finish with its subtle ring structure. The hand-crafted nib is particularly distinct. It is a reference to another great passion of the writer: aerobatics. William Faulkner was one of the most significant American novelists of the 20th century. In his more than 50 books — novels, short stories and anthologies — he described again and again the beauty and tragedy of his homeland by the Mississippi River.
To this day he thus manages to draw his readers into a maelstrom of dramatic destinies, deteriorated values, violence and death, guilt and punishment. It is to his avant-garde experiments with new stylistic elements, interwoven plots and complex shifts in points of view that the two-time Pulitzer Prize winner owes his international fame — and the Nobel Prize for Literature in Dark green marbled lacquer punctuated with platinum-plated fittings. These are the style features of the new Writers Edition in honour of the distinguished Irish free thinker George Bernard Shaw.
Just as Eliza, a poor flower girl, is brought up to be an aristocratic lady, so the fine platinum of the pen is replaced more and more towards the cap by the opulent dark green of the precious resin. This deep, marbled green, indeed, originally represents the lush green meadows of Ireland that Shaw left behind. George Bernard Shaw, the great master of language, was born in Ireland in Although he left his native land at the age of 20 to become a theatre critic and writer in London, he always retained links with his country.
He used his talent not only to create magnificent, subtle dramatic pieces, but always in addition to highlight the problems of the disadvantaged.
For this reason, his name is one of few to be associated with brilliant repartee and sharp-tongued criticism of social evils. With much subtle humour, Shaw draws attention to the enormous social inequalities in contemporary England.
George Bernard Shaw was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in Montblanc is paying tribute to this unique wordsmith with an equally unique Writers Edition. The platinum-plated inlays in the rich black lacquer of this writing instrument are inspired by the age of artistic creativity in which Thomas Mann lived: the Art Deco era.
With a skeletonised cap, crowned with the ivory-coloured Montblanc emblem, the delicate engraving of the lattice grille — showing Pinocchio and his companions — and the champagne-gold 18 K nib complete this edition of a precious fountain pen. Montblanc now dedicates an edition of writing instruments to the great satirist of British-Irish literature, Jonathan Swift. The barrel is made of black lacquer and decorated with multi-layered inlays reminiscent of the ropes that were used to bind Gulliver on the beach of Lilliput island.
It bears the signature of Jonathan Swift. The clip depicts the staircase the mayor of Lilliput had to climb to be able to talk to Gulliver. Both clip and fittings are platinum-plated. He often carried a magnificently decorated walking stick, which is recalled in the platinum-plated clip with turquoise inlay.
The Writers Edition pays tribute to Daniel Defoe, an English novelist, pamphleteer and journalist, who is most famous for being the author of "Robinson Crusoe" , the story of a man shipwrecked alone on an island. Defoe is considered to be one of the founders of the English novel, with "Robinson Crusoe" marking the beginning of realistic fiction as a literary genre.
The overall shape of the Writers Edition refers to the paddle with which Crusoe attempted to escape from the abandoned island.
