Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fragments of Time: Gathered and Strung 'Music hath Charms' is an old truism with which we have all been familiar, even from our childhood, and the same proverb may also be used with reference to poetry; indeed (to use a figurative term) the one is the handmaid of the other. Who has not been charmed by the sweet songs and beautiful stanzas of our great master poets? Aye, and some of our minor poets too, especially when charged with a spell which ever and anon lifts us, as it were, out of our meagre selves, and for a while carries the soul upward, onward, and heavenward, far away from the rush, toil, and din of this busy working-day world, to its coveted haven of rest. Many and various are the methods employed by our Creator in bringing His creatures to a knowledge of Himself, and His will concerning the children of men. To this end poetry has its allotted work, and will sometimes reach the heart where prose will fail. Moreover, we are each in a degree our brother's keeper, and may be coworkers with God, in whose name and by whose injunction we sow beside all waters, leaving the result to Him who is able to use our feeble efforts for the good of mankind, and the consummation of His eternal purpose, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth, ever world without end.

Download or read book Empire of Magic written by Geraldine Heng and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2003-07-13 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empire of Magic offers a genesis and genealogy for medieval romance and the King Arthur legend through the history of Europe's encounters with the East in crusades, travel, missionizing, and empire formation. It also produces definitions of "race" and "nation" for the medieval period and posits that the Middle Ages and medieval fantasies of race and religion have recently returned. Drawing on feminist and gender theory, as well as cultural analyses of race, class, and colonialism, this provocative book revises our understanding of the beginnings of the nine hundred-year-old cultural genre we call romance, as well as the King Arthur legend. Geraldine Heng argues that romance arose in the twelfth century as a cultural response to the trauma and horror of taboo acts—in particular the cannibalism committed by crusaders on the bodies of Muslim enemies in Syria during the First Crusade. From such encounters with the East, Heng suggests, sprang the fantastical episodes featuring King Arthur in Geoffrey of Monmouth's chronicle The History of the Kings of England, a work where history and fantasy collide and merge, each into the other, inventing crucial new examples and models for romances to come. After locating the rise of romance and Arthurian legend in the contact zones of East and West, Heng demonstrates the adaptability of romance and its key role in the genesis of an English national identity. Discussing Jews, women, children, and sexuality in works like the romance of Richard Lionheart, stories of the saintly Constance, Arthurian chivralic literature, the legend of Prester John, and travel narratives, Heng shows how fantasy enabled audiences to work through issues of communal identity, race, color, class and alternative sexualities in socially sanctioned and safe modes of cultural discussion in which pleasure, not anxiety, was paramount. Romance also engaged with the threat of modernity in the late medieval period, as economic, social, and technological transformations occurred and awareness grew of a vastly enlarged world beyond Europe, one encompassing India, China, and Africa. Finally, Heng posits, romance locates England and Europe within an empire of magic and knowledge that surveys the world and makes it intelligible—usable—for the future. Empire of Magic is expansive in scope, spanning the eleventh to the fifteenth centuries, and detailed in coverage, examining various types of romance—historical, national, popular, chivalric, family, and travel romances, among others—to see how cultural fantasy responds to changing crises, pressures, and demands in a number of different ways. Boldly controversial, theoretically sophisticated, and historically rooted, Empire of Magic is a dramatic restaging of the role romance played in the culture of a period and world in ways that suggest how cultural fantasy still functions for us today.

Download or read book The Book of Dave written by Will Self and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Will Self’s best-loved novels, newly reissued by Grove, The Book of Dave begins when East End cabdriver Dave Rudman’s wife takes from him his only son. In response, Dave pens a savage jeremiad against the contemporary world that filters his fearful bigotry through religious mania, with a generous dose of the London cabby’s unique knowledge of the sprawling city. Dave buries the book in his ex-wife’s Hampstead backyard, intending it for his son, Carl, when he comes of age. Five hundred years later, Dave’s book is found by the inhabitants of Ham, a primitive archipelago in post-apocalyptic London, where it becomes a sacred text of biblical proportions and the template for a new civilization. Equal parts dystopian fantasy, religious allegory, detective story, and tribute to the sometimes fraught relations between fathers and sons, The Book of Dave is an ingenious meditation upon the nature of religion and a caustic satire of contemporary life.
