Download or read book The Red Rover written by James Fenimore Cooper and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1991-01-22 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turning to his own extensive maritime experience, Coopers novel, written in Paris in 1827, reflects his immersion in the romantic movement that was sweeping the Continent. European readers enjoyed his poetic and imaginative portrayal of the sea, while American readers were interested in how he depicted the early stirrings of nationalism in the New World decades prior to the Revolution. Coopers striking association of the sublime power of nature with the rebellious spirit of his pirate-hero established and defined the sea novel as a literary genre. By far the most influential of his maritime tales, The Red Rover was read and admired by Goethe and Berlioz, Melville and Conrad. This edition, the first to be based on Coopers original manuscript, offers the modern reader a major document of romanticism and a compelling narrative of adventure at sea.

Download or read book The Wit and Wisdom of G K Chesterton written by Bevis Hillier and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-10-31 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: G. K. Chesterton was a consummately witty man. In this new collection, Bevis Hillier draws on his most humorous epigrams and more serious extracts not only from his most popular works, the Father Brown stories, but also his contributions to the Illustrated London News and GK's Weekly, as well as his numerous novels, poems, essays and tracts on a vast array of subjects. These pieces shine a light into the margins of Chesterton's work and give a sense of the distinctive flavour of his mind. Hillier, the acclaimed biographer of John Betjeman, considers what it was that made Chesterton such a complex and fascinating character. Some of Chesterton's remarkable drawings (he trained as an artist at the Slade) are included, among them a hitherto unpublished caricature of Winston Churchill, c. 1919. This is a book for Chesterton fans everywhere.
