Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nineveh: And Other Poems The splendid heritage of two languages has fallen to me from a German father and an American mother. My ears have listened to the music of two worlds. Many of the poems in the present collection were written in the lan guage in which they are here presented. Oth ers were originally composed in German and rewritten in English. The latter are as metals transmuted by verbal alchemy and, with the ex ception of two, in no sense translations. I can not, therefore, claim, for any part of my work, the indulgence commonly granted to painstak ing translators by benevolent critics. Each of my poems must be judged by whatever intrinsic value it may possess. It must also be judged as a whole. It must not be Viewed from one nar row angle Of Vision - moral, aesthetic, or philo sophic. The truth, I take it, has many sides. Art, like life, is Janus-faced. In fact, it has many faces.

This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rubáiyát of Solomon, and Other Poems It is to be hoped that some day, not distant, will give us a collected edition of the writings of Miss Jones. What we receive now adds largely and importantly to her poetical work, especially in the historical quality which so many of her lyrics have taken from the inspira tion of great events. The Saving of an Em pire, dedicated to John Hay, and Panama, are among the fine poems of recent years which have that historical significance, and which greatly enrich the book. To say that a permanent high place in Ameri can literature belongs to the poems of Amanda T. Jones is to express the judgment of many whose critical opinion has vastly more weight than mine.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Death of Themistocles, and Other Poems The verses in this volume, gathered from many years, cannot be supposed to convey any confession of faith, religious or political: they are, for the most part, insignificant records of various and often transient moods. In attempting to delineate the character of Themistocles, I have been careful to adhere to a position historically defensible, and to consult authorities as to the topography of Athens at the date of the events narrated.

Download or read book Ahasuerus written by Joseph Pomeroy Widney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-18 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ahasuerus: A Race Tragedy is an epic poem loosely based on the Biblical Book of Esther. Its author, Joseph Pomeroy Widney was an educator, philanthropist, religious leader and doctor who championed the development of Los Angeles in the 19th Century. He was the second president of the University of Southern California and was one of the founders of the Church of the Nazarene. His politics and racial beliefs were controversial, and he was said to be the model for an oil baron in Upton Sinclair's novel Oil!, which was adapted for the movie There Will Be Blood. In A Race Tragedy, Widney tells the story of Ahasuerus, the Persian king of the Book of Esther who is widely regarded as Xerxes. Widney's fictionalized account depicts Ahasuerus as he wanders through the desert encountering some of the characters of the Bible. The style is that of the epic poem, and Widney uses symbolism from nature to tell the tale. One of the poem's themes is the reconciliation of Gentile and Jew. Widney had a transformative religious experience in the desert and returned forever changed, identifying himself with ancient Semites from which Judaism later sprang. Widney became something of a universalist, presaging in some way the theories of New Thought. However, readers may detect some anti-Semitism lurking within the poem. Despite Widney's contributions to Southern California culture, he was also known as an advocate of Eugenics and argued for Aryan superiority; His writings are still heavily quoted by white supremacists. Ahasuerus: A Race Tragedy is not a poem explicitly about Widney's racial politics. It will interest those who are familiar with Ahasuerus, Biblical studies or those who simply enjoy epic poetry. It is also yet another intriguing window into the mind of a complex American. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Obiter Dicta of Bacon and Shakespeare on Manners Mind Classic Reprint written by Mrs. Henry Pott and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Obiter Dicta of Bacon and Shakespeare on Manners, Mind The following passages from Bacon and Shakespeare have been brought together with three objects, distinct, but harmonious. First, there being no concordance or harmony to the authentic works of Bacon, we desire, by degrees, to supply that deficiency by means of handbooks so cheap as to be within the reach of all students, and so arranged and subdivided that any particular subject treated of by Bacon may be studied independently of the rest. We would continue these booklets in an unremitting stream, until the much-needed, complete harmony between the works of the philosopher and of the poet be put into the hands of every reader in a simple and portable form. Secondly, we desire to help the advancement of learning by sparing the pens and the valuable time of many who now have to grope and hunt for things long ago noted and written down. Bacon cautions men against wasting time in Actum Agere, doing again the deed done; but from want of co-operation amongst workers, his wise advice is daily neglected, and the same particulars painfully sought for by those whose minus are fully capable of proceeding from "particulars to generalities," and of doing work needed, and of permanent value.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mongrelites: Or, the Radicals So Called; A Satiric Poem In presenting this poem to the public, I desire to say that while my remarks respecting New England are necessarily sweeping, in the work, it is not, in reality meant to include all the natives of the Eastern States. I wish it to be distinctly understood that I refer to the Radical party only - whose hatred for the South has become chronic, and whose political actions embody every principle that can be corrupt and dishonest. This explanation is due, not only to the many thousands of good men in the East, but to many warm personal friends of mine, who are natives of New England. I would not have the former suppose that I do not believe there is an honest man in "Yankeedom," and I shall not desire the latter to think I had intended to wound their feelings.
