Download or read book Letter to the Editor of the Bookman written by James Cameron Ewing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letter to the Editor of "the Bookman" On Certain Paragraphs Which Appeared in That Journal Relative to a Correspondence in "the Scotsman" On "Robert Burns and Mrs. Dunlop Replying to Mr. Ewing's attack, Mr. Wallace makes a very good defence. He never assumed omniscience on the subject of T lze bums-dzm/op Correspondence, but, like every other editor of Letters, he asked the co-opera tion of everyone who knew where such documents were to be found, and he always courteously acknowledged any assistance which he received. It was, therefore, taking an unfair advantage of him for Mr. Ewing to remain silent on the matter so that he might querulously complain about the volume after it was published. At least, this is how the matter will strike anyone who candidly examines the lengthy newspaper correspondence that has arisen on this momentous subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Bookman's Budget Despite the pitfalls of a Preface, a few words are required to explain the origin and growth of this desultory miscellany. During an enforced suspension of plans and projects, I found it expedient to take up some temporary occupation. Casting about for the needful initial suggestion, I happened on an old note-book in which, for several years, it had been my practice to jot down extracts from my reading which had either appealed to me personally or had influenced my writing. These I began to transcribe; and speedily found them multiply under my pen. Then, in quest of further material, I went on to forage among certain forgotten causeries I had once contributed to a nowextinct periodical, adding, from time to time, divers stray copies of bookish versicles not yet comprised in any collection of my poems. Presently an encouraging friend suggested that I might 'enliven my character' by including a few original adversaria on things in general. This I at once essayed to do; and thus came gradually to intersperse sundry detached passages from my printed prose - passages which, to my over-heated imagination, appeared to invite an attention they had not hitherto obtained. The outcome of my labours is the present compilation. As will be apparent, it is mainly literary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Punch's Letters to His Son, and Punch's Complete Letter-Writer These letters were originally addressed to, I verily believe, my own son. In them, I have endeavoured to enshrine the wisdom of my life. In them, I have sought to paint men as they are - to sketch the scenes of the world as they have presented themselves 'to my observation - to show the spring of human motives - to exhibit to the Opening mind of youth the vulgar wires that, because unseen, make a mystery of common-place. I am prepared to be much abused for these epistles. They are written in lemon-juice. Nay, the little sacs in the jaws of the rattle-snake, wherein the reptile elaborates its poison to strike with sudden death the beautiful and harmless guinea - pigs and coneys of the earth, - these venomous bags have supplied the quill that traced the mortal sentences. Or if it be not really so, it is no matter; the worthy, amiable souls, who would have even a Sawney Bean painted upon a rose - leaf, will say as much; so let mejor once be beforehand, and say it for them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters to Various Persons That letter to J, for which you had an opportunity doubtless to substitute a more perfect communication, fell, as was natural, into the hands of his "transcendental brother," who is his proxy in such cases, having been commissioned to acknowledge and receipt all bills that may be presented. But what's in a name? Perhaps it does not matter whether it be John or Henry. Nor will those same six months have to be altered, I fear, to suit his case as well. But methinks they have not passed entirely without intercourse, provided we have been sincere though humble worshippers of the same virtue in the mean time.

Download or read book Modern Men of Letters Honestly Criticised Classic Reprint written by James Hain Friswell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Men of Letters Honestly Criticised The ordinary mode of criticising the results of a scholar's hard and long-continued work is, as we are well aware, to test it here and there by means of the index, and to show off the critic's second-hand learning at the expense of the literary subject which he is dissecting, pointing out a weak point here and an unsound spot there; but such a mode of treatment would be entirely beside the mark in the present case." The above sentence from a review in the Athenaeum of May 21st, will be a sufficient explanation of, and excuse for, the words on the title-page, "honestly criticised." The italics are not those of the journal, but added here to mark the openness of confession, and, at the same time, the curious reservation in favour of Mr. Cox's work on the "Myths of the Aryan Nations," as if in any case so perfunctory and essentially dishonest a method could be excused.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From New York, Vol. 1: Second Series I do not call this volume Letters from New York, on account of the unexpected popularity of the first volume, or because I consider it altogether appropriate; but I can think of no better name, under which to arrange articles so miscellaneous and incongruous in their character. Many of them are now published for the first time, others have been scattered through various periodicals. I claim for them no other merit than that of being an honest record of my own views and impressions, on subjects which most interest me. If you discover faults in my premises, or errors in my conclusions, it may at least do you some good, by exciting your own mind to increased activity. That I see glorious truths in mere fragments, and utter even those with most inadequate expression, I am painfully conscious. But frankly and confidingly, as children do, I show you an image of my soul, as reflected in the mirror of its passing thoughts. I have written nothing from affectation, sectarian prejudice, or partisan zeal. Perhaps you will forgive my deficiencies, for the sake of my kind intentions, and sincere love of truth.
