Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Second Century of Charades T has always seemed to me that charades, like I rhymes, were addressed to the ear, and not to the eye, and that if the sounds were correct, the spelling was a matter of no importance. On the other hand, a Charade in which the parts conform to the spell ing, but depart from the sound, appears to me faulty. The fault may be condoned, but it ought not to be commended. In my first volume I claimed, though I scarcely used, the right to make charades of this character. In this second volume the reader will find them numerous.

Download or read book Original Copy written by Robert Macfarlane and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-03-08 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: '"Originality" is only plagiarizing from a great many', remarked Rupert Brooke, stealing the line from Voltaire. Questions of originality, and accusations of plagiarism, are as old as literature, but different literary cultures have interpreted the relationship between originality and plagiarism in startlingly dissimilar ways. Original Copy investigates and documents the drastic reappraisal of literary originality and plagiarism which occurred over the course of the nineteenth century: from the heroic visions of original authorship that characterised the 1820s and 1830s, through to the stickle-brick creativity of Oscar Wilde and Lionel Johnson at the century's end. It reveals how ideas of originality and plagiarism were not only a theoretical concern of Victorian commentators on literature, but also provided many important Victorian writers - Eliot, Dickens, Reade, Pater, Wilde, and Lionel Johnson among them - with a creative resource. Moving between numerous different fields of thought and knowledge - literary criticism, the history of science, manuscript culture, anthropology - and written in a supple and elegant style, this book shows that the ideas of originality and plagiarism were the subjects of nineteenth-century literature, as well as what it was subject to.
