Download or read book Mosses from an Old Manse written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2013-11-14 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the annotated edition including both volumes of the original book, a rare biographical essay on the author, as well as an essay by Edgar Allan Poe on Hawthorne's tale-writing. In 1846 the "Mosses from an Old Manse" was published in New York in two volumes, which contain, on the whole, his best work in short stories, and are prefaced by one of his most delightful essays, "The Old Manse." In some of them, it may be, the allegory is too apparent, but in general they are very deep and searching studies of the heart and conscience. Among the best are " Young Goodman Brown," " Roger Malvin's Burial," " Rappaccini's' Daughter," which is usually placed highest, and " Drowne's Wooden Image." " The Birthmark " and " The Artist of the Beautiful" also rank high in the estimation of critics. "The Celestial Railroad " is a clever satire on modern religion; "The Intelligence Ofiice," "The Procession of Life," and "Earth's Holocaust" are conceits with a burden of symbolic meaning. "The Old Apple-Dealer " is a study of a character with the least possible amount of coloring. " P.'s Correspondence" is mainly interesting, perhaps, for the curious speculation, under the guise of a lunatic's vagaries, on what age might have made of those early poets of the century who died young or in middle life, - especially of what its sobering and conservative tendencies would have done for Byron, Burns, Shelley, and Keats. " The Hall of Fantasy," " A Select Party," and " A Virtuoso's Collection" are ingeniously executed fancies. "Mrs. Bullfrog" is a light, humorous sketch, and " Fire Worship" and " Buds and Bird Voices" are delightful essays.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the timeThe collection includes several previously published stories, and was named in honor of The Old Manse, where Hawthorne and his wife lived during the first three years of their marriage. The first edition was published in 1846. Many of the stories compiled in Old Manse's Mosses are allegories and, typical of Hawthorne, focus on the negative side of human nature. Hawthorne's friend, Herman Melville, noted this aspect in his review "Hawthorne and his mosses": This black conceit permeates it from beginning to end. He may be impressed by his sunlight, carried by the bright gold in the skies he builds on you.William Henry Channing noted in his review of the collection, in The Harbinger, its author "had been baptized in the deep waters of the tragedy", and his work was dark with only brief moments of "serene brightness" that was never brighter than "dark twilight".After the book's first publication, Hawthorne sent copies to critics like Margaret Fuller, Rufus Wilmot Griswold, Edgar Allan Poe and Henry Theodore Tuckerman. Poe responded with a long review in which he praised Hawthorne's writings but blamed him for associating with the New England magazines, Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Transcendentalists.He wrote: "Let him repair his pen, take a bottle of visible ink, get out of the Old Manse, cut Mr. Alcott, hang up (if possible) the editor of 'The Dial' and throw it out the window to all odd numbers from the American magazine A young Walt Whitman wrote that Hawthorne was underpaid and that it was unfair that his book competed with imported European books. He asked: "Should the true American genius tremble negligently while the public runs after this foreign garbage? "In general, most contemporary critics praised the collection and considered it better than Hawthorne's previous collection, Twice-Told Tales.

This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nathaniel Hawthorne was a celebrated nineteenth century American literary figure who penned numerous critically acclaimed novels and short stories. Hawthorne's writings were mostly Puritanical moral allegories set in New England. Element of Dark Romanticism, theme of inherent evil, moral dilemma and psychological complexity of human mind are explored in his works consistently. His notable works include Twice-Told Tales, The Scarlet Letter and The House of the Seven Gables. Born on July 4, 1804, in Salem, Massachusetts, Hawthorne was a descendant of a long line of Puritan ancestors. He was related to an unrepentant presiding magistrate involved in Salem witch trials, John Hathorne. So as not to identify himself with the scandalous Hathorne family, Hawthorne added a 'w' in his name in his youth. His father was a ship captain who died of yellow fever at sea when he was four years old. The sudden demise of his father made his mother very protective of him which engendered an isolated atmosphere for him. This period in his childhood rendered him shy and an avid reader which shaped his personality in such a way that led him to choose a career in writing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the book's first publication, Hawthorne sent copies to critics including Margaret Fuller, Rufus Wilmot Griswold, Edgar Allan Poe, and Henry Theodore Tuckerman.[4] Poe responded with a lengthy review in which he praised Hawthorne's writing but faulted him for associating with New England journals, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and the Transcendentalists. He wrote, "Let him mend his pen, get a bottle of visible ink, come out from the Old Manse, cut Mr. Alcott, hang (if possible) the editor of 'The Dial,' and throw out of the window to the pigs all his odd numbers of the North American Review."[5] A young Walt Whitman wrote that Hawthorne was underpaid, and it was unfair that his book competed with imported European books. He asked, "Shall real American genius shiver with neglect while the public runs after this foreign trash?"[1] Generally, most contemporary critics praised the collection and considered it better than Hawthorne's earlier collection, Twice-Told Tales.[6]Regarding the second edition, published in 1854, Hawthorne wrote to publisher James T. Fields that he no longer understood the messages he was sending in these stories. He shared, "I remember that I always had a meaning--or, at least, thought I had",[7] and noted "Upon my honor, I am not quite sure that I entirely comprehend my own meaning in some of these blasted allegories... I am a good deal changed since those times; and to tell you the truth, my past self is not very much to my taste, as I see in this book."

Download or read book The Old Manse and a Few Mosses Classic Reprint written by Nathaniel Hawthorne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Manse and a Few Mosses Hawthorne, like most writers of the present day, was wont to send out his stories and sketches through the magazines of his time, and to collect them after ward into volumes. He gave the felicitous title, taken from Shakespeare, to one of these collections, of Twice Told Tales, and to another, of Mosses from an Old Manse. It was when he was living in the manse, or residence of the minister at Concord, Massachusetts, that he made this collection, and by a graceful turn gave a title to it which intimated how antique, for the most part, were the stories which he had been writing; how, like the moss, they gathered about the life of an old society. The collection consists of twenty-six tales, together with an introductory chapter, descriptive of the manse itself. Four of these have been selected, also introduced by the account of the old manse, which is one of the most characteristic of Hawthorne's play ful leisurely sketches.
