Book excerpt: Excerpt from John Ward It was nearly ten o'clock when Dr. Ward drove his car into the large, roughly-paved yard, bounded, on two sides of the oblong, by stables and vast barns, memorials of the farmers who had formerly lived profitlessly in the decaying house. The night was cold and dark: the drizzle that had floated down clammily throughout the day had changed into a heavy, oppressive downpour; rivulets twisted through the interstices of the uneven stones, splashed from the gutters and spouts, or fell, broken into showers, from the low roofs of the disused pig-sties. He tooted the horn as he jumped from the car, which was coated with thick, clayey mud. Almost instantly, Marple appeared from one of the barns, which had been modernized and fitted up as a garage. The doctor, with a nod, turned away; but paused after he had taken a few steps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Alice Books and the Contested Ground of the Natural World written by Laura White and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though popular opinion would have us see Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There as whimsical, nonsensical, and thoroughly enjoyable stories told mostly for children; contemporary research has shown us there is a vastly greater depth to the stories than would been seen at first glance. Building on the now popular idea amongst Alice enthusiasts, that the Alice books - at heart - were intended for adults as well as children, Laura White takes current research in a new, fascinating direction. During the Victorian era of the book’s original publication, ideas about nature and our relation to nature were changing drastically. The Alice Books and the Contested Ground of the Natural World argues that Lewis Carroll used the book’s charm, wit, and often puzzling conclusions to counter the emerging tendencies of the time which favored Darwinism and theories of evolution and challenged the then-conventional thinking of the relationship between mankind and nature. Though a scientist and ardent student of nature himself, Carroll used his famously playful language, fantastic worlds and brilliant, often impossible characters to support more the traditional, Christian ideology of the time in which mankind holds absolute sovereignty over animals and nature.
Download or read book John Ward Preacher written by Margaret Deland and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2005-12-01 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With your help I could endure any pain. I wonder," he went on, in a lower voice, as though thinking aloud, "if this strength of yours could inspire me to bear the worst pain there could be for me, - I mean, if I had to make you suffer in any way?" Helen looked down at him, surprised, not quite understanding. "Suppose," he said, - "of course one can suppose anything, - that for your best good I had to make you suffer: could I, do you think?" -from John Ward, Preacher The fiction of 19th-century novelist Margaret Deland was greatly concerned with the particular challenges faced by the women in her era: the fight for suffrage, the public disgrace of single motherhood, and the secret shame of adultery. Her first novel, 1888's John Ward, Preacher, is her most sensational, a story of a Calvinist minister, his freethinking wife, Helen, and their clash over religious doctrine-and in particular the concept of eternal damnation-that ultimately destroys them. A daring and original work about a woman asserting her intellectual independence, this is a lost classic that will electrify readers of American feminist literature. American poet and novelist MARGARET DELAND (1857-1945) was a contributor to Harper's Magazine. She also wrote the novels Sidney (1890), Philip and His Wife (1894), and The Awakening of Helena Richie (1906), among others. Old Chester Tales (1898) is a collection of her short fiction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lily and Leander, or the Secret of Success in Service: A Poem of Life; And Other Poems and Hymns The Theological Novel has become a recognised factor in the religious thought of our day. The three works, bearing this character, which have recently excited attention, robert elsmere, john ward, preacher} the story OF AN african farm, ' although in some respects ably written, with powerful delineations of character, do not present an adequate View of Christianity. The writers have sought rather to caricature the Christian religion, than to give a faith ful representation of it. In Lily and Leander there is no attempt to reply to any of the arguments set forth in these works; but simply, under the form of a life-story, and a frank recital of difficulties and genuine experience, to illustrate various phases of the possible and actual religious life, and especially the higher and more mature experiences of faith, and peace, and power, and joy in work, and perfect freedom from worry and care.

Download or read book An Empire of Print written by Steven Carl Smith and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home to the so-called big five publishers as well as hundreds of smaller presses, renowned literary agents, a vigorous arts scene, and an uncountable number of aspiring and established writers alike, New York City is widely perceived as the publishing capital of the United States and the world. This book traces the origins and early evolution of the city’s rise to literary preeminence. Through five case studies, Steven Carl Smith examines publishing in New York from the post–Revolutionary War period through the Jacksonian era. He discusses the gradual development of local, regional, and national distribution networks, assesses the economic relationships and shared social and cultural practices that connected printers, booksellers, and their customers, and explores the uncharacteristically modern approaches taken by the city’s preindustrial printers and distributors. If the cultural matrix of printed texts served as the primary legitimating vehicle for political debate and literary expression, Smith argues, then deeper understanding of the economic interests and political affiliations of the people who produced these texts gives necessary insight into the emergence of a major American industry. Those involved in New York’s book trade imagined for themselves, like their counterparts in other major seaport cities, a robust business that could satisfy the new nation’s desire for print, and many fulfilled their ambition by cultivating networks that crossed regional boundaries, delivering books to the masses. A fresh interpretation of the market economy in early America, An Empire of Print reveals how New York started on the road to becoming the publishing powerhouse it is today.
