Download or read book Tales of the Mermaid Tavern written by Alfred Noyes and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-04-29 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, his latest book, Mr. Noyes presents to the public a poem of even greater value than those which have brought him his early popularity. His earlier works, "Drake," "Sherwood" and "The Enchanted Isle," containing as they did a combination of great vigor of expression, the glamour of true romance, and lilting, haunting music, were but the promise of better things. And in the "Tales of the Mermaid Tavern" we find that promise fulfilled. In a little, shabby inn off Fleet Street, Mr. Noyes lays his scene. The story tells us how, happening there, he is pressed into service as pot-boy, and, 'mid clashing tankards and a ringing chorus, takes up his duties. They roar for new drink-this brilliant company about the old oaken table-Raleigh, Marlowe, Drayton, Lyly, Dekker, Ben Jonson, Peele and Shakespeare- a happy, carefree group. And then the poem moves swiftly. The difficult and daring motive of having each sing or speak is skillfully and convincingly handled. Of the individual poems, 'twere difficult to select the most pleasing. They vary from Sir Walter Raleigh's swinging sea-song, "A Knight of the Ocean," to Shakespeare's tense plea for the unhonored green. There is a joyous flight of fancy, "Black Bill's Honeymoon," which bring "Bacchus and the Pirates" pleasantly to our memories. Probably the greatest passage of the entire collection deals with the life and death of Kit Marlowe. Chapman and Nash sing of the brilliant, youthful poet, and we have pathos in the descriptions of his carefree boyhood, and burning scorn for the vileness of those who brought about his sordid death. There are many, many others, each with a very genuine appeal. Space prevents the pleasant task of praising each one. But the book will be read and appreciated by all. With characteristic unobtrusiveness Mr. Noyes entered the little inn with its faded green shutters and worn sign. Humbly he took his position as pot-boy for the great masters of English poetry. Then he would drift from sight. Yet, with the strain of his triumphant idealism singing in our ears, we prophecy with unbounded assurance that 'twill not be a great space of time before the English nation urges him to the seat which Marlowe, Jonson, and Shakespeare beckon him to so graciously, at the candlelit, oaken table of the Mermaid Tavern. -The Yale Literary Magazine, Volume 78 [1913]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dive into the grand adventure of two young royals seeking to end the war between their two kingdoms in what Kirkus calls, "A Sapphic fantasy romance series-opener brimming with blood and longing." Climb the tower. Kill the princess. Evhen, princess—no, queen—of Vodaeard, is on a revenge mission. After witnessing her parents' brutal murder by the king of Marama and the horror of his undead army, she's vowed to kill his daughter. It'll be poetic justice and also take away his supernatural edge in the war. But when she realizes the princess might be an ignorant pawn, she changes course and hides her royal identity—after all, she can't trust an enemy, no matter how beautiful she is. Stay alive. Break the curse. Princess Kalei of Marama is moon-blessed, allowing her to resurrect her kingdom's loyal subjects. But when she's attacked in her safe lighthouse by a fiery pirate, her worldview is shattered once she learns what her power is really being used for. Determined to prove her innocence and willingness to stop her father, she has no choice but to trust her would-be killer to safely deliver her to the Vodaeardean princess. But who can she trust in when it seems Captain Evhen is not the only one who wants her dead?
Download or read book A Nation upon the Ocean Sea written by Daviken Studnicki-Gizbert and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-04 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the opening of sea routes in the fifteenth century, groups of men and women left Portugal to establish themselves across the ports and cities of the Atlantic or Ocean sea. They were refugees and migrants, traders and mariners, Jews , Catholics, and the Marranos of mixed Judaic-Catholic culture. They formed a diasporic community known by contemporaries as the Portuguese Nation. By the early seventeenth century, this nation without a state had created a remarkable trading network that spanned the Atlantic, reached into the Indian Ocean and Asia, and generated millions of pesos that were used to bankroll the Spanish empire. A Nation Upon the Ocean Sea traces the story of the Portuguese Nation from its emergence in the late fifteenth century to its fragmentation in the middle of the seventeenth and situates it in relation to the parallel expansion and crisis of Spanish imperial dominion in the Atlantic. Against the backdrop of this relationship, the book reconstitutes the rich inner life of a community based on movement, maritime trade, and cultural hybridity. We are introduced to mariners and traders in such disparate places as Lima, Seville and Amsterdam, their day-to-day interactions and understandings, their houses and domestic relations, their private reflections and public arguments. This finaly-textured account reveals how the Portuguese Nation created a cohesive and meaningful community despite the mobility and dispersion of its members; how its forms of sociability fed into the development of robust transatlantic commercial networks; and how the day-to-day experience of trade was translated into the sphere of Spanish imperial politics of commercial reform based on religious-ethnic toleration and the liberalization of trade. A microhistory, A Nation Upon the Ocean Sea contributes to our understanding of the broader histories of capitalism, empire, and diaspora in the early Atlantic.
