Book excerpt: In the Romantic period's economics of 'fiat' money the legacy of romanticism involves absolutist gestures of verbal fiat.

The year is 1779, and the British colony is under siege by the Spanish and French. Bob soon finds himself caught up in the excitement of the siege, and he witnessed firsthand the courage and determination of the British soldiers and civilians who defend the Rock. He also makes new friends, including Jim Sankey, a young sailor who is determined to make a name for himself. Together, Bob and Jim experience the highs and lows of war, and they learn the importance of friendship, courage, and loyalty.

Henty's writing is vivid and engaging, and he brings the characters and events of the siege to life. Held Fast For England is a classic tale of adventure, courage, and patriotism.

Download or read book Delirious Milton written by Gordon Teskey and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Composed after the collapse of his political hopes, Milton's great poems Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained, and Samson Agonistes are an effort to understand what it means to be a poet on the threshold of a post-theological world. The argument of Delirious Milton, inspired in part by the architectural theorist Rem Koolhaas's Delirious New York, is that Milton's creative power is drawn from a rift at the center of his consciousness over the question of creation itself. This rift forces the poet to oscillate deliriously between two incompatible perspectives, at once affirming and denying the presence of spirit in what he creates. From one perspective the act of creation is centered in God and the purpose of art is to imitate and praise the Creator. From the other perspective the act of creation is centered in the human, in the built environment of the modern world. The oscillation itself, continually affirming and negating the presence of spirit, of a force beyond the human, is what Gordon Teskey means by delirium. He concludes that the modern artist, far from being characterized by what Benjamin (after Baudelaire) called "loss of the aura," is invested, as never before, with a shamanistic spiritual power that is mediated through art.

Download or read book Wordsworth s Philosophic Song written by Simon Jarvis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-12-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wordsworth wrote that he longed to compose 'some philosophic Song/Of Truth that cherishes our daily life'. Yet he never finished The Recluse, his long philosophical poem. Simon Jarvis argues that Wordsworth's aspiration to 'philosophic song' is central to his greatness, and changed the way English poetry was written. Some critics see Wordworth as a systematic thinker, while for others he is a poet first, and a thinker only (if at all) second. Jarvis shows instead how essential both philosophy and the 'song' of poetry were to Wordsworth's achievement. Drawing on advanced work in continental philosophy and social theory to address the ideological attacks which have dominated much recent commentary, Jarvis reads Wordsworth's writing both critically and philosophically, to show how Wordsworth thinks through and in verse. This study rethinks the relation between poetry and society itself by analysing the tensions between thinking philosophically and writing poetry.
