Download or read book Sir Walter Ralegh written by Ruth Padel and published by Faber & Faber. This book was released on 2010-08-19 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors offer insights into their own work as well as providing an accessible and passionate introduction to some of the greatest poets of our literature. Sir Walter Ralegh, poet, scholar, soldier and explorer, travel-writer, historian and favourite courtier of Queen Elizabeth I, was born in Devon around 1552, knighted in 1584, imprisoned twice in the Tower of London, where he wrote his History of the World, and executed in 1618. Many famous poems attributed to him, like "The Passionate Man's Pilgrimage", may not actually be his. But, like the many poems written to him by the Queen and others, they testify to what Ralegh stood for in the Elizabethan age, as a poet and a man.

Download or read book Lethal Options written by Mike Antonaccio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2000-10-16 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lethal Options is meant to be a double entendre, encompassing both the options that people have in life and the mistakes they make in choosing from them, as well as stock options whose promise of quick wealth also can make people choose their fates badlyeven lethally. Two brothers, Johnny and Tommy Gavella, grow up in a poor immigrant Italian family in a tough city with apparently very different outcomes. Johnny turns to crime at a young age, convinced that this lifestyle is the right one for him, giving him the opportunity to be bold and rich, as well as independent from a family he finds embarrassing and stifling. Precepts that he garners from a fathers tough love and a twisted sense of justice and fairness fuel his drive toward a lifetime of crime. He pursues the company of a gang of young toughs led by Tony Poloso and proves to them that he is worthy of their trust and respect. Eventually, he makes his way to North Carolina, leaving his successful, unlawful career as well as his family behind. Now, eight years later, he is summoned back home because of his mothers serious illness. During his return, we learn much more about Johnny and his motives, his affair with Tommys girlfriend Rosalie, and his surprising provenance. His mother Maria tells him of her youth in Italy and her own passion for a young Baron who was brutally murdered, her revenge on the murderer and the stunning, surprising meaning it has for Johnny. Tommy wants to emulate his brother while growing up but is forced by Johnny, his family and circumstances to be the legitimate success of the Gavellas. He studies hard, goes to college and ends up with both M.D. and Ph.D. degrees, becoming the Vice President for Research and Development at Calara Pharmaceuticals. Leading an outwardly successful life, he finds himself in debt for a large amount due to a foolish, though perfectly honest, mistake in playing the stock market. In financial desperation, he obtains a loan from Johnnys old criminal protg Tony Poloso in return for a promise that they would both become extremely wealthy on stock options and a dramatic increase in Tommys companys value when the drug he is developing for them is approved for marketing. However, Tommy knows that the drug has severe safety problems and that the only way it would ever be approved would be to falsify data to make it appear safe and effective. In a clever scheme, he arranges to control the clinical trial for the new drug by essentially inventing patients but covering it up in a manner that appears to be foolproof. Unfortunately, a suspicious friend and a disgruntled employee eventually reveal the scheme and Tommys future comes crashing down with attendant, horrible consequences for him as a consequence of his now bad debt to Poloso.. During this time, Johnny is drawn into Tommys difficulties and obliged to make some difficult decisions about himself and his future. He is torn by his feelings toward Tommys wife Rosalie, his new and shocking knowledge about his mothers past and his own heritage, and a moral dilemma between his family obligations and a return to a past life that he thought was safely buried. Love, hate, pride, deception, sex, desire, money and murder, all options that are freely chosen and whose consequences surprise and sadden.

Download or read book The Ways of the Word written by Garrett Stewart and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Ways of the Word, Garrett Stewart steps aside from theory to focus on the sheer pleasure of attentive reading and the excitement of recognizing the play of syllables and words upon which the best literary writing is founded. Emerging out of teaching creative writing and a broader effort to convene writers and critics, Stewart's "episodes in verbal attention" track the means to meaning through the byways of literary wording. Through close engagement with literary passages and poetic instances whose imaginative demands are their own reward, Stewart gathers exhibits from dozens of authors: from Dickinson, Dickens, and DeLillo to Whitman, Woolf, and Colson Whitehead. In the process, idiom, tense, etymology, and other elements of expressive language and its phonetic wordplay are estranged and heard anew. The Ways of the Word fluidly and intuitively reveals a verbal alchemy that is as riveting as it is elusive and mysterious.

Download or read book The Art of the Sonnet written by Stephen Burt and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Few poetic forms have found more uses than the sonnet in English, and none is now more recognizable. It is one of the longest-lived of verse forms, and one of the briefest. A mere fourteen lines, fashioned by intricate rhymes, it is, as Dante Gabriel Rossetti called it, "a moment's monument." From the Renaissance to the present, the sonnet has given poets a superb vehicle for private contemplation, introspection, and the expression of passionate feelings and thoughts." "The Art of the Sonnet collects one hundred exemplary sonnets of the English language (and a few sonnets in translation), representing highlights in the history of the sonnet, accompanied by short commentaries on each of the poems. The commentaries by Stephen Burt and David Mikics offer new perspectives and insights, and, taken together, demonstrate the enduring as well as changing nature of the sonnet. The authors serve as guides to some of the most-celebrated sonnets in English as well as less-well-known gems by nineteenth- and twentieth-century poets. Also included is a general introductory essay, in which the authors examine the sonnet form and its long and fascinating history, from its origin in medieval Sicily to its English appropriation in the sixteenth century to sonnet writing today in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other English-speaking parts of the world." --Book Jacket.
