Non loin du Nil, dans la vallée de Biban-el-Molouk, un jeune aristocrate anglais, lord Evandale, et un égyptologue allemand, le docteur Rumphius, découvrent, grâce à l'aide d'un escroc grec dénommé Argyropoulos, une tombe inviolée. Depuis plus de 3 500 ans, nul n'a foulé le sol de la chambre funéraire dans laquelle repose le sarcophage d'un pharaon. Mais quand on ouvre le lourd couvercle de basalte noir, les deux hommes trouvent, à leur grande stupéfaction, la momie parfaitement conservée d'une jeune femme d'une magnifique beauté appelée Tahoser. Après la découverte de cette momie, le roman raconte l'histoire de cette momie et de ses amours.

Émaux et camées est le sommet de l'art poétique de Théophile Gautier. La plupart des textes qui le constituent sont octosyllabiques ; « L'Art », contre-exemple, a une forme plus surprenante : il est en effet constitué de quatrains hexasyllabiques. Ses poèmes deviennent alors des bijoux virtuoses à la beauté un peu froide sans perdre toutefois leur charge émotionnelle. Cette esthétique nouvelle annonce le mouvement parnassien.

"And me, what have I done? I had the age of their illusions and their desires made me young. Beautiful in their amour, I smiled at their dream and my smile protected them against death by smiling at them. Today, the number of years forgotten in my presence and the weight of their regret is overwhelming me, their awakening has aged me by a thousand years, and now I am condemned to live for a thousand years, hideous and sad, the life that each of them might have lived down here."-Jean Lorrain, "Oriane Vanquished"Gathered together in the present volume, edited and translated from the French by Brian Stableford, are seventeen tales of femmes fatales, many of which have never appeared in English before. From the pioneering "The Amorous Revenant" by Théophile Gautier, to Jules Lermina's horrific "The Titaness," this significant sampling of those seductively attractive females who lead men into problematic positions will be sure to appeal to connoisseurs of dark fairy tales, fin-de-siècle decadence, and those who simply revel in the frissons offered by this irresistible antiquarian subgenre.
