Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lines in Pleasant Places: Rhythmics of Many Moods and Quantities, Wise and Otherwise We are told that when the late Pythagoras discovered his champion problem - the forty-seventh - that is to-day most popular in places where it is least understood, he made a great to-do about it, shouting "Eureka!" and indulging in other eccentric demonstrations; so the author of this unpretending volume, when the idea of publishing came upon him, received it as if it were a new revelation, and said, "I'll print it!" the difference betwixt his ejaculation and that of Pythagoras, aforesaid, being that his was in plain English. But there was a financial difficulty in the way which looked portentous, and then, recalling the aphorism of the eminent financier, who made a fortune by borrowing ninepences, that "friendship unutilized is capital wasted," he drew up the mild appeal to "His Friends," that needs but to be alluded to here, which achieved a success far beyond his expectations, for which he is duly grateful. The tutelar genius which inspired his previous books, does not prominently appear in this, though the benignant influence of Mrs. Partington may be felt in its pages, warming, by its tranquil glow, without provoking the reader to the frenzy of mirth, and, like Cowper's cup of tea, may "cheer, but not inebriate."

Download or read book Encyclopedia of American Humorists written by Steven H. Gale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 1324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1988, this book contains entries on famous American Humorists. Humor has been present in American literature, from the beginning, and has developed characteristics that reflect the American character, both regional and national. Although American literature was, in the past, treated as inferior to British literature, there has always been a large popular audience for the genre, which this book shows. The figures with entries in this encyclopedia not only amuse in their writing, but also aim to enlighten- setting out to expose the foibles and foolishness of society and the individuals who compose it. It is the manner in which these authors try to accomplish this end that determines whether they appear in the volume. Indeed, the book will demonstrate that the best humor has at its base, a ready understanding of human nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "India retains one of the richest painting traditions in the history of global visual culture, one that both parallels aspects of European traditions and also diverges from it. While European artists venerated the landscape and landscape paintings, it is rare in the Indian tradition to find depictions of landscapes for their sheer beauty and mood, without religious or courtly significance. There is one glorious exception: Painters from the city of Udaipur in Northwestern India specialized in depicting places, including the courtly worlds and cities of rajas, sacred landscapes of many gods, and bazaars bustling with merchants, pilgrims, and craftsmen. Their court paintings and painted invitation scrolls displayed rich geographic information, notions of territory, and the bhāva, or feel, emotion, and mood of a place. This is the first book to use artistic representations of place to trace the major aesthetic, intellectual, and political shifts in South Asia over the long eighteenth century. While James Tod, the first British colonial agent based in Udaipur, established the region's reputation as a principality in a state of political and cultural deterioration, author Dipti Khera uses these paintings to suggest a counter-narrative of a prosperous region with beautiful and bountiful cities, and plentiful rains and lakes. She explores the perspectives of courtly communities, merchants, pilgrims, monks, laypeople, and officers, and the British East India Company's officers, explorers, and artists. Throughout, she draws new conclusions about the region's intellectual and artistic practices, and its shifts in political authority, mobility, and urbanity"--
