Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Answer to the Essays and Reviews The theory propounded by the writers of the Essays and Reviews is simply this - that there are in Scripture several statements of doctrine and of fact which Christians are not bound, by reason and conscience, to interpret literally. The motive for propounding this theory is, as the writers themselves declare, and as from their character and position we have every reason to believe, to induce more persons to trust the Scriptures than at present trust them, and to induce more persons to be Christians at heart than at present are so. No one can deny the excellence of this motive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Modernism  Postmodernism  and the Short Story in English

Download or read book Modernism Postmodernism and the Short Story in English written by and published by Brill. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the short story help to redefine modernism, postmodernism and their interrelationship? What is the status of the short story in modern literary history? These are the central questions that the essays collected in this volume try to answer from different perspectives through readings of short fiction in English and accounts of the genre’s theorisations. The essays by a group of international scholars tackle theoretical issues that are central in approaches to both “movements” such as periodisation, autonomy, high vs. popular literature, totality vs. fragmentation, surface vs. depth, otherness, representation, and, above all, the subject and its vicissitudes. Because it blends theory-based arguments into the approaches to the short fiction of mainly canonical authors (Joyce, Woolf, Lewis, Ballard, Carter, Rushdie, or Wallace), Modernism, Postmodernism, and the Short Story in English is of interest not only to readers and scholars of the short story, but also to those coming from the fields of literary theory and literary history.

Book The Book of  More  Delights

Download or read book The Book of More Delights written by Ross Gay and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **Named a Best Book of the Year by The Boston Globe, Garden & Gun, Electric Literature, and St. Louis Public Radio** The New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Delights and Inciting Joy is back with exactly the book we need in these unsettling times. Margaret Roach of The New York Times says, “Yes, please. I'll have another dose of delight.” In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reviews and Critical Essays The subject of the following brief memoir always seemed to me one of the most intellectually gifted men I have ever met. His memory was extraordinary, and his power of mastering masses of facts and drawing conclusions from them was equally remarkable. His experience of life, drawn from the observation of persons and events in Europe, was ever at hand to form his judgment. It was this happy faculty of recalling pictures of events in bygone times and in far-off countries which gave his conversation its peculiar charm, which all who conversed with him were ready to acknowledge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vet's Daughter combines shocking realism with a visionary edge. The vet lives with his bedridden wife and shy daughter Alice in a sinister London suburb. He works constantly, captive to a strange private fury, and treats his family with brutality and contempt. After his wife's death, the vet takes up with a crass, needling woman who tries to refashion Alice in her own image. And yet as Alice retreats ever deeper into a dream world, she discovers an extraordinary secret power of her own. Harrowing and haunting, like an unexpected cross between Flannery O'Connor and Stephen King, The Vet's Daughter is a story of outraged innocence that culminates in a scene of appalling triumph.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays and Reviews I have been asked to add a few words of preface to this volume of Reviews, written by a deceased friend and former pupil. He would have been a distinguished man if he had lived, and those who have an affection for his memory are naturally desirous that he should be known to the world as he was to them. He was taken suddenly from his family and friends in the fulness of health and strength, at a time when the difficulties of his career were over, and he was beginning to reap the harvest of success. Those who had Opportunities of judging were confident that he would soon have attained the highest honours of his profession; and his literary talents, if he had written with his name, would certainly have gained him eminence. He was always going forward, and had he been spared a few years longer would probably have done much more than he did. He often expressed to an inti mate friend the ambition which he felt to produce some permanent work, and would sketch out in conversation a book upon the principal subjects of English politics, which had long been in his thoughts.
