Download or read book Bush Ballads and Galloping Rhymes Edited Illustrated written by Adam Lindsay Gordon and published by Voices of Today. This book was released on 2022-11-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the history of anglophone Australian verse dates back to early colonial times, one of the first antipodean voices recognised as genuinely poetic was that of Adam Lindsay Gordon (1833 - 1870). During his short and tragic life, Gordon published two volumes of verse, the second of which was Bush Ballads and Galloping Rhymes, which appeared in the year of his death by suicide. Gordon's verses vary widely in quality, but do contain many lines of great power. Gordon was a skilled and adventurous horseman, and many of his poems relate to horses and horse riding. This reissued edition of Bush Ballads and Galloping Rhymes includes contributions from authors Douglas Sladen and Marcus Clarke, as well as an early review of Bush Ballads, published in The Argus newspaper, Melbourne. It also contains historical images associated with Adam Lindsay Gordon, which helps to convey the historical context of Gordon's work.

Download or read book Sport Literature Society written by Alexis Tadié and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport studies and sports history have witnessed a recent substantial increase in publications. However, the relationship between literature and sport has been little explored. Sport, Literature, Society looks at a wide variety of case studies ranging from Japan to England, from India to Australia and covers sports as diverse as cycling, football, wrestling and boxing. It concentrates on historical perspectives. The contributors are all academics of international reputation and include historians of sport and literary scholars. Literature may shape our perceptions and reactions to sport as much as sport may inform our reading. As mimetic practice, as aesthetic object, as imaginative release, sport is analogous to literature and the other arts; at the same time, it can become the subject of literary, visual or musical elaborations. Literature often conceptualises the place and role of sport in culture and society. Indeed, sport inhabits literature in ways that have not been adequately studied. Sport studies have investigated the relationships between sport and society, education, gender, nation, and class. To look again at these relationships through the prism of literature enables us to change our focus and to assess the centrality of sport in culture. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hunting literature had its beginnings as early as the fourteenth century, when nobles hunted stag, bear, fox, and other game on horseback. As foxhunting grew in popularity, literary works that covered the sport flourished, as well. In Six Centuries of Foxhunting: An Annotated Bibliography, M. L. Biscotti has compiled all books produced in Great Britain and the United States that pertain to, or mention, foxhunting with hounds. Arranged alphabetically by author, more than 2000 titles are included. Each entry features details such as place and year of publication, publisher, book size, page count, illustrations, and binding. Nearly every title is also annotated with a description of the book’s contents, and biographical sketches are provided for the most notable authors. Narratives, histories, illustrated works, verse, fiction, and even anti-hunting literature all have their place in this volume. Six Centuries of Foxhunting also features more than thirty images of book covers and foxhunting illustrations. With appendixes that contain author, title, and illustrator time lines, and separate author and title indexes, this comprehensive bibliography is a valuable resource for researchers, book dealers and collectors, and foxhunters.
