Download or read book Emerson Centenary Essays written by Joel Myerson and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred years after Ralph Waldo Emerson's death in Concord is an appropriate time to assess his life and writings. The eleven essays here presented, along with new documentary and manuscript material soon to be made available, will provide a fresh impetus for subsequent studies of Emerson as man and writer. The first four essays trace Emerson's development through the publication of his first series of Essays in 1841: Evelyn Barish describes Emerson's early illness and how his decision to deal with sickness influenced his philosophy; Wesley T. Mott shows the importance of the sermon "Christ Crucified" to Emerson's intellectual development; Jerome Loving shows how Emerson's change in vocation and his change in philosophical outlook went hand in hand; Glen M. Johnson demonstrates how Emerson developed a sense of himself as a professional author. The next three essays cover the period from 1841 to 1844 and include David Robinson's examination of The Method of Nature asmarking a crucial point in Emerson's life. Richard Lee Francis and David W. Hill show Emerson seeking his persona in Essays: Second Series and evaluate the significance of his eventual authorial voice. The subsequent essays range widely: Sanford E. Marovitz surveys and evaluates Emerson's long-time interest in Shakespeare; Robert E. Burkholder discusses the response of the press to English Traits; Ronald A. Sudol shows that Emerson's reaction to technology is embodied in the poem, "The Adirondacs"; and Merton M. Sealts, Jr., concludes with a reminder that Emerson was, in precept and in life, a teacher.
Download or read book From the Critic s Workbench written by Marianne Shapiro and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises twenty-two chapters, including previously unpublished material, written over the entire span of Marianne Shapiro's working life. Its opening section on the European heritage begins with a long essay on the Aeneid that breaks new interpretative ground by examining the epic from the perspective of Virgil's implicit prescriptions for leaders and leadership. Chapters on Dante add to the store of knowledge on his minor works as well as the Comedy, and are followed by close readings of Petrarch and Provençal poetry. The American and comparative literature section features an analysis of John Ashbery's New Spirit and a page-by-page commentary on Nabokov's Lolita and Pnin. The book is rounded out by three chapters in a semiotics section, the highlight of which is an analysis of the Christian Trinity based on a deep understanding of Peirce's sign theory.

Download or read book The Metaphysics of Dante s Comedy written by Christian Moevs and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-13 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recovery of Dante's metaphysics-which are very different from our own-is essential, argues Christian Moevs, if we are to resolve what has been called 'the central problem in the interpretation of the Comedy.' That problem is what to make of the Comedy's claim to the status of revelation, vision, or experiential record - as something more than imaginative literature. In this book Moevs offers the first sustained treatment of the metaphysical picture that grounds and motivates the Comedy, and the relation between those metaphysics and Dante's poetics. Moevs arrives at the radical conclusion that Dante believed that all of what we perceive as reality, the spatio-temporal world, is in fact a creation or projection of conscious being. Armed with this new understanding, Moevs is able to shed light on a series of perennial issues in the interpretation of the Comedy.

Download or read book Desire in Dante and the Middle Ages written by Manuele Gragnolati and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume takes Dante's rich and multifaceted discourse of desire, from the Vita Nova to the Commedia, as a point of departure in investigating medieval concepts of desire in all their multiplicity, fragmentation and interrelation. As well as offering several original contributions on this fundamental aspect of Dante's work, it seeks to situate the Florentine more effectively within the broader spectrum of medieval culture and to establish greater intellectual exchange between Dante scholars and those from other disciplines. The volume is also notable for its openness to diverse critical and methodological approaches. In considering the extent to which modern theoretical paradigms can be used to shed light upon the Middle Ages, it will interest those engaged with questions of critical theory as well as medieval culture.
