This book was released on 1860 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Washington Irving was widely considered to be America's first "Man of Letters," or the first American to make a successful and long-lasting career as a highly regarded author, and as such, he had a great impact on his fellow authors in America and abroad. Shortly after Irving's death in 1859, many luminaries of the literary world came together at a New York Historical Society event to honor the memory of one of America's brightest literary stars. Featuring addresses by William Cullen Bryant, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and other prominent American writers of the mid-nineteenth century, this collection of tributes to Irving gives a glimpse not only at Irving's life and works, but also at the influence he had on America's fledgling literary circle.

Download or read book ABHB Annual Bibliography of the History of the Printed Book and Libraries written by Hendrik D.L. Vervliet and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of printing, books, and libraries, is confined only to a limited extent within the boundaries of individual countries. There are, indeed, few historical developments which have played a more universal role, in reaction against all kinds of particularism, than type design, printing, book production, publishing, illustration, binding, librarianship, journal ism, and related subjects. Their history should be assessed and studied primarily in an international, not in a local, context. The bibliographical resources, however, which the historian of these sub jects has at his disposal correspond hardly at all to the essentially inter national character of the object of his studies. Since the appearance of the retrospective bibliography of BIG MORE and WYMAN, covering the subject comprehensively up to r88o, the only current bibliography has been the lnternationale Bibliographie des Buck-und Bi bliothekswesens. Covering a representative part of newly published liter ature, it appeared from rgz8, but did not survive the Second World War. More recently, several useful, but limited, bibliographies have appeared.

Download or read book Washington Irving Selected Writings written by Washington Irving and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2023-04-27 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two of Washington Irving’s works of short fiction from his 1819-20 work, The Sketch Book—Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow—are among the most enduringly popular of American classics. In his own day, Irving’s works were widely read in Britain as well as in America; the English novelist William Makepiece Thackeray described him as “the first ambassador whom the New World of Letters sent to the Old.” This edition takes notice of transatlantic literary history with an appendix of reviews from American and British newspapers, and by printing in facing page format the American and British versions of “Traits of Indian Character” (which differed from each other in a variety of interesting ways). Also included are an excerpt from Irving’s first major work, A History of New York; excerpts from a key source that Irving drew on for “Rip Van Winkle”; and a selection of illustrations showing some of the ways in which this character was imagined in nineteenth-century America. With a concise but wide-ranging introduction and extensive explanatory notes, this edition is ideally suited for course use.
Download or read book Washington Irving written by William L. Hedges and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2019-12-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1965. Despite his prolificacy, Washington Irving remained an underexamined figure among literary scholars at the time William L. Hedges published his definitive study of the author in 1965. Most contemporary scholars believed that Irving's central contribution to the American literary tradition was that his work was "polished" and "suave." These scholars maintained that Irving's aristocratic sensibilities defined the stylistic choices of his literary works. To assume this, Hedges contends, is to "both let the man and the work slip beyond one's grasp." Hedges demonstrates that much of Irving's work can be understood in the context of his conflict between federalist and conservative politics. Irving, in other words, found himself incapable of committing to a coherent set of beliefs or attitudes, and this cultural uneasiness manifested itself in his early work. Washington Irving: An American Study, 1802-1832 tries to correct some of the misapprehension about Irving's place in nineteenth-century American literature.
