Book excerpt: Excerpt from Naomi: A Dramatic Poem; And Other Pieces Many of the busy actors on life's busy stage, and some amid those who tread the velvet avenue of affluence, are unmindful how frequently the same touching scenes might appear to them, were they not too busy, or too careless to observe, and too negligent of their duty to assist. Yet, grateful remembrance must add, there are in the highest ranks of life, those who delight to smooth the rugged path of adversity, and to cheer the gloom of affliction by the sunlight of kindness. The unparalleled beauties ofscripture are too little known, and too lightly appreciated, by the young. The hope that a by-path, humble though it he, may lead some to tread the expansive plain of holy writ, has induced the authoress to choose this style of subject - not presuming to suppose it derives one attrae tion from its present garb which can be compared with the original. Human composition, when beautiful, can never compete with the heroic ardour, solemn majesty, and exquisitely touching pathos which characterize the volume of inspiration. The incidents are such as will find an echo in many a heart; and should one child of pride feel how inferior are rank and wealth to virtue - should one lonely Naomi receive comfort, and one daughter of misfortune, whose heart, like Ruth's, has been blighted in the spring time of life, derive solace from her reward, and be incited to toil up the steep and rugged path of duty, the writer will not regret the motive nor the deed.

  • Pages : 178 pages

Download or read book Collected Poems written by Naomi Replansky and published by Black Sparrow Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nominated for the National Book Award in 1952, Naomi Replansky's first book Ring Song dazzled critics with its candor and freshness of language. Here at long last is the new and collected work of a lifetime by a writer hailed as "one of the most brilliant American poets" by George Oppen. Replansky is a poet whose verse combines the compression of Emily Dickinson, the passion of Anna Akhmatova, and the music of W.H. Auden. These poems, which Marie Ponsot calls "sixty years of a free woman's song," are Replansky's hymns to the struggle for justice and equality and to the enduring beauty of life in our dangerous world.

Book An Infusion of Violets

Download or read book An Infusion of Violets written by Nancy Naomi Carlson and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the same musical sense of language she applies to her translations, Nancy Naomi Carlson masterfully interprets herself in An Infusion of Violets. The sometimes erotic, sometimes melancholy landscapes she creates as the self-appointed sitar's "ragged throat, pitched / between here and when, / caught in quartertones," take our breath away. Carlson describes an interior world where tears can produce "so much salt a body floats away," where "music tuned to loss descends with rain," and where hope is placed in the "kill-cure." Here we encounter Carlson's ex-husbands and luminaries such as Rachmaninoff and Monet, among others. Filled with striking images and sensuous language, An Infusion of Violets is an evocative mix of formal and free-verse poems.

The human heart craves comfort, contact, tenderness; survival may take many forms

When twenty-eight-year-old Joji first lays eyes upon the teenage waitress Naomi, he is instantly smitten by her exotic, almost Western appearance. Determined to transform her into the perfect wife and to whisk her away from the seamy underbelly of post-World War I Tokyo, Joji adopts and ultimately marries Naomi, paying for English and music lessons that promise to mold her into his ideal companion. But as she grows older, Joji discovers that Naomi is far from the naïve girl of his fantasies. And, in Tanizaki’s masterpiece of lurid obsession, passion quickly descends into comically helpless masochism.

Book The Music of Tragedy

    Book Details:
  • Author : Naomi A. Weiss
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2024-05-21
  • ISBN : 0520401441
  • Pages : 300 pages

Download or read book The Music of Tragedy written by Naomi A. Weiss and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Music of Tragedy offers a new approach to the study of classical Greek theater by examining the use of musical language, imagery, and performance in the late work of Euripides. Naomi Weiss demonstrates that Euripides’ allusions to music-making are not just metatheatrical flourishes or gestures towards musical and religious practices external to the drama but closely interwoven with the dramatic plot. Situating Euripides’ experimentation with the dramaturgical effects of mousike within a broader cultural context, she shows how much of his novelty lies in his reinvention of traditional lyric styles and motifs for the tragic stage. If we wish to understand better the trajectories of this most important ancient art form, The Music of Tragedy argues, we must pay closer attention to the role played by both music and text.
