Download or read book The Lost Woods written by H. William Rice and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection that follows the lives of two families who own land and hunt in rural South Carolina The Lost Woods is a collection of fifteen short stories, most of them set in and around the fictional small town of Sledge, South Carolina. The events narrated in the stories begin in the 1930s and continue to the present day. The stories aren't accounts of hunting methods or legends of trophy kills—they are serious stories about hunting that are similar in style to William Faulkner's Go Down, Moses. The collection traces the evolution of two families—the Whites and the Chapmans—as well as the changes in hunting and land use of the past eighty years. Some of these stories are narrated in third person; others are told by a wide range of characters, from grown men and women to children, but only from one perspective—that of the hunter. As they walk the woods in search of turkeys, deer, or raccoons, these characters seek something more than food. They seek a lost connection to some part of themselves. The title "the lost woods" is adapted from Cherokee myths and stories wherein people must return again and again to the woods to find animals that were lost. Thereby, we find not only food, but who we are. Through these stories Rice reminds us that hunting is inextricably entwined with identity. As one of the oldest rituals that we as a species know, it reflects both our nobility and our depravity. Through it we return again and again to find the lost woods inside ourselves.

Download or read book The Complete Works of Elizabeth Gaskell Illustrated written by Elizabeth Gaskell and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2024-01-12 with total page 4638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elizabeth Gaskell's 'The Complete Works of Elizabeth Gaskell (Illustrated)' is a comprehensive collection that showcases the remarkable literary talent of a Victorian-era female writer. Gaskell's works often explore social issues, class differences, and the plight of women in society, depicted through vivid characters and engaging plotlines. Her writing style is characterized by its deep emotional resonance, nuanced character development, and insightful social commentary. This collection includes popular novels like 'North and South' and 'Cranford,' as well as shorter works and novellas that highlight Gaskell's versatility as a writer. Gaskell's works are essential reading for those interested in Victorian literature, feminist perspectives, and the social issues of the 19th century. Elizabeth Gaskell, a contemporary of Charles Dickens and Charlotte Bronte, drew inspiration from her own experiences as a minister's wife and keen observer of society. Her background in social activism and philanthropy informs her writing, as she sheds light on the struggles of the working class and marginalized groups. Gaskell's empathetic approach to storytelling and keen insight into human nature have secured her a place in the literary canon. I highly recommend 'The Complete Works of Elizabeth Gaskell (Illustrated)' to readers who appreciate classic literature, feminist themes, and engrossing storytelling. Gaskell's timeless tales continue to resonate with readers today, offering valuable insights into the complexities of human relationships and societal norms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chapter I. If you take the turn to the left, after you pass the lyke-gate at Combehurst Church, you will come to the wooden bridge over the brook; keep along the field-path which mounts higher and higher, and, in half a mile or so, you will be in a breezy upland field, almost large enough to be called a down, where sheep pasture on the short, fine, elastic turf. You look down on Combehurst and its beautiful church-spire. After the field is crossed, you come to a common, richly colored with the golden gorse and the purple heather, which in summer-time send out their warm scents into the quiet air. The swelling waves of the upland make a near horizon against the sky; the line is only broken in one place by a small grove of Scotch firs, which always look black and shadowed even at mid-day, when all the rest of the landscape seems bathed in sunlight. The lark quivers and sings high up in the air; too high--in too dazzling a region for you to see her. Look! she drops into sight; but, as if loth to leave the heavenly radiance, she balances herself and floats in the ether. Now she falls suddenly right into her nest, hidden among the ling, unseen except by the eyes of Heaven, and the small bright insects that run hither and thither on the elastic flower-stalks. With something like the sudden drop of the lark, the path goes down a green abrupt descent; and in a basin, surrounded by the grassy hills, there stands a dwelling, which is neither cottage nor house, but something between the two in size. Nor yet is it a farm, though surrounded by living things. It is, or rather it was, at the time of which I speak, the dwelling of Mrs. Browne, the widow of the late curate of Combehurst. There she lived with her faithful old servant and her only children, a boy and girl.

Download or read book Harmony Garden written by J. D. Schmidt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-16 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first complete study of China's most popular eighteenth-century poet in any Western language. The work consists of a detailed biography, a study of Yuan's revolutionary reinterpretation of Chinese literary theory, and an analysis of his many contributions to the more original genres of Qing-dynasty (1644-1911) poetry such as narrative, historical, didactic, eccentric, and nature verse. The study is concluded by a generous and representative sampling of Yuan's poetry in translation, the first to do justice to the wide variety and richness of his oeuvre. Although many shorter poems are selected, this is the first translation to include his outstanding longer poetry. Harmony Garden will completely revise current attitudes in the west concerning classical Chines literature during the eighteenth century, a period that was long viewed as one of decline, but now appears to equal the golden ages of antiquity.
