Love and hate, sorrow and joy, in a thousand shapes, are for ever near us. Death is at our threshold. Life springs up almost at our feet. Our neighbors are 'exultations, agonies!' And yet we seem to live on, ignorant of all. Could we but unroof (Asmodeus-like) the houses which, day after day, present towards us so insensible an aspect, what marvels might we not disclose! What fruitful thoughts, what radiant visions, would throng into our brain! The mystery of human conduct would lie unveiled. We should see and know all men truly. We should see the miser, the spendthrift, the scholar, the toiling artisan, the happy bride, and the girl deserted (like the people in the palace of Truth); all contributing their share to the unknown romance, which time is for ever weaving round us.

Download or read book American Literature and the Culture of Reprinting 1834 1853 written by Meredith L. McGill and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-10-11 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The antebellum period has long been identified with the belated emergence of a truly national literature. And yet, as Meredith L. McGill argues, a mass market for books in this period was built and sustained through what we would call rampant literary piracy: a national literature developed not despite but because of the systematic copying of foreign works. Restoring a political dimension to accounts of the economic grounds of antebellum literature, McGill unfolds the legal arguments and political struggles that produced an American "culture of reprinting" and held it in place for two crucial decades. In this culture of reprinting, the circulation of print outstripped authorial and editorial control. McGill examines the workings of literary culture within this market, shifting her gaze from first and authorized editions to reprints and piracies, from the form of the book to the intersection of book and periodical publishing, and from a national literature to an internally divided and transatlantic literary marketplace. Through readings of the work of Dickens, Poe, and Hawthorne, McGill seeks both to analyze how changes in the conditions of publication influenced literary form and to measure what was lost as literary markets became centralized and literary culture became stratified in the early 1850s. American Literature and the Culture of Reprinting, 1834-1853 delineates a distinctive literary culture that was regional in articulation and transnational in scope, while questioning the grounds of the startlingly recent but nonetheless powerful equation of the national interest with the extension of authors' rights.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays and Tales Son, in this collection, illustrate the steadiness with which Steele maintained the strength and sacredness of the home ties against the idle fashion of disparage. Ment. The scattered papers dealing playfully with that and other fashions hostile to a generous and earnest sense of life, belong equally to the representa tion of Steele's way of helping to make his readers true men of the world. A touch or two of reference to Louis XIV. May serve for slight indication of Steele's interest in the great political questions which were, as a rule, excluded from the Taller and Spectator. For their Essays and Tales sought to temper with wise kindliness the heats of party, and bring faith in God and man, the best sources of good nature, to shine through the clouds of envy, hatred, malice, and all uncharitableness.

To the mind as to the eye, it isqdifficult to compare with exactness objects vast in their extent and various in their parts. Where we see or con ceive the whole at once, We readily note the discriminations and decide the preference; but of two systems, of which neither can be sur veyed by any human being in its full compass of magnitude and multiplicity of complication, where is the wonder, that judging of the Whole by parts, I am alternately affected by one 'and the other, as either presses on my memory or fancy? We differ from ourselves just as we difier from each other, when we see only part of a question, as in the multifarious relations of politics and morality; but, when We perceive the whole at once, as in numerical computations, all agree in one judgment and none ever varies his Opinion.
