Download or read book The Brief Career of Eliza Poe written by Geddeth Smith and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the actress Eliza Poe--mother of Edgar Allen Poe--died at age 24 in Richmond, Virginia, she had played with every important theatrical company in the country. Compared to actors today, her career is truly extraordinary. She played nearly 300 parts--in plays by Shakespeare and Sheridan--a long line of heroines in 18th century sentimental comedies, comic operas, farces, and poetic tragedies whose titles are meaningless now, though they contain brilliant language and canny theatricality, requiring actors of discipline and skill to present successfully. Eliza left no personal documents, but available public documents relating to her professional life tell the vivid story of a gifted young actress serving her apprenticeship in the superior repertory system of late 18th and early 19th century America. Eliza was a young artist who had established a national reputation with her co-workers and the public, just embarking on what would have been her most important work at the time of her tragically early death.

Download or read book From Sacred to Secular written by Barbara E. Lacey and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This examination of illustrations in early American books, pamphlets, magazines, almanacs, and broadsides provides a new perspective on the social, cultural, and political environment of the late colonial period and the early republic. American printers and engravers drew upon a rich tradition of Christian visual imagery. Used first to inculcate Protestant doctrines, regional symbolism later served to promote reverence for the new republic. The chapters are devoted to momento mori imagery, children's readers, visionary literature, and illustrated Bibles. One chapter shows the demonization of the Indians even as the Indian was being adopted as a symbol of America. Other chapters deal with propaganda for the American Revolution, canonization of leaders, secularized roles for women, and socialization of sites in the new nation.Throughout, analysis of image and text shows how the religious and the secular contrasted, coexisted, and intermingled in eighteenth-century American illustrated imprints. Barbara E. Lacey is a Professor of history at St. Joseph College. It includes more than 110 illustrations.
