The Collected Stories of Gladys Schmitt
Beautifully crafted stories that evoke human frailty and strength

Rembrandt
If the story of Rembrandt's life is a great subject for the novelist, it is not because his development into one of the world's supreme painters has profound spiritual significance. His life, unlike that of most creative artists, was closely intertwined with his work; and the conflicts of family, class, marriage, children and society that run through his turbulent career have become basic themes for Western man over the past three hundred years.

The Godforgotten
The "Godforgotten" are the nuns and monks on the fictitious island of Saint Cyprian that believed that the Second Coming of Christ brought about the apocalypse in A.D. 997 when their island was besieged by an earthquake and tidal wave. They were under the impression that they were the only survivors to remain and that God had forsaken them. For a century, their believes and society continued under this impression until Father Albrecht, of the Benedictine Order in Cologne, Germany, is sent by his superior to investigate the community of Saint Cyprian who are understandably surprised by his arrival and the subsequent revelation that "Judgement Day" had not passed.
Confessors of the Name
Persecution of the Christians in 3d-century Rome forms the background for this love story about a Stoic and a Christian girl.
Rembrandt
A book which is the result of more than 20 years of research and offers new interpretations of the art of Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669). It was designed to be a catalogue raisonne of works by the artist or works traditionally attributed to him. In a text that incorporates his own scholarship as well as the latest findings of the Rembrandt Research Project, the author explores the development of Rembrandt's art through the story of the artist's life. First, Tumpel frees the iconographic interpretation of Rembrandt's art of its traditional literary connections. Second, he demonstrates that Rembrandt was inspired by various 16th-century visual materials and was therefore less original than was assumed until now. The author also analyzes the stylistic traditions of Rembrandt's time and ultimately presents a series of convincing interpretations of Rembrandt's famous history pieces.
