Download or read book The Crucible of Time written by John Brunner and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life had become too interesting on one world crawling across the rubble-strewn arm of a spiral galaxy. For as the system moved it swept up cosmic dust and debris. Ice ages and periods of tropical warmth followed one another very quickly. Meteors large and small fell constantly. Yesterday's fabled culture might be tomorrow's interesting hole in the ground. But society had always endured. Many thought it always would. Only the brightest scientists admitted that to survive, the race would have to abandon the planet. And to do that they'd have to invent spacecraft . . . This engrossing epic describes the development, over millennia, of a species from a culture of planet-bound medieval city-states to a sophisticated, technological civilization. With The Crucible of Time, John Brunner returns to the large-canvas science fiction he pioneered in his Hugo Award-winning, novel Stand on Zanzibar. First published in 1982.

Download or read book The Crucible written by Arthur Miller and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written during the height of the Army McCarthy Hearings, when writers were investigated by Senator Joe McCarthy and his side-kick Roy Cohen for their suspected left-wing leanings, and were often alleged to be Communists or Soviet spies. The infamous Hollywood Ten of writers were blacklisted and their movies could not be produced. Arthur Miller was one of them but he got off by agreeing to testify. Improbable as it may seem nowadays, these things really did happen at about the time that Arthur Miller wrote "The Crucible". They happened to Arthur Miller, too. Arthur Miller preferred not to have to jump out a window to protect his works. So, he is now remembered primarily for having been the husband of screen actress Marilyn Monroe for two years and he wrote screenplays for some of her movies. Arthur Miller wrote The Crucible about the real Witch Hunts that took place in Salem Massachusetts in 1692, which can be compared to the Army McCarthy Witch Hunts of 1952. And Ishi Press is reprinting this book now in comparison with the actual Witch Hunts taking place in Washington DC in 2020, being led by the greatest and most ruthless Witch Hunter of them all, Donald J. Trump. Even though The Crucible is a novel, it is based on actual historic facts. All of the characters in The Crucible were real people. Their names and dates were real. Arthur Miller lived in Salem Massachusetts for several months to research this book while writing it. The principal characters are John Proctor. His wife is Elizabeth and his former domestic servant is Abigail. John Proctor is a farmer in Salem Massachusetts. Mary Warren is a servant girl who works as a domestic for the Proctors. She is arrested and charged with being a witch. She saves herself by testifying against the Proctors. Abigail is carrying on a sexual affair with John Proctor even though she is only eleven years old!!! Both Elizabeth and Abigail are jealous of each other. Abigail wants Elizabeth executed as a witch so she can carry on her affair and sleep with with John Proctor.

Download or read book Crucible written by Daniel Bosch and published by Daniel Bosch. This book was released on 2002 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crucible is a collection of poems by award-winning poet Daniel Bosch. The poems break easily into two sections. In the first, a set of ironic, emulative "Homages & Elegies," Bosch playfully apostrophizes poets living and dead, as if it took two not only to tango, but to write a poem. He wrestles with Dickinson, grooves with the glacial wit of Frost (belatedly), waltzes with Walcott's ghost (prematurely), mimics Mandelstam, picks apples with Sappho, and shares a transcontinental flight with Brodsky. Each poem is carefully measured; some are composed by meticulous inversion of their precursor's poetic strategy. Literary but by no means prudish, these poems look back-and forward-to a time when poems took stands readers could understand, disagree with, and laugh at. The result is a sort of hypertext essay on what it means to pour oneself into the mold of "poet" in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The second half of Crucible is "Passion Fruit," a fourteen-poem "sonnet" that courts a single muse through incarnations as various as "Orange," "Peach," "Banana," "Cherries," "Blueberries," and "Mango." Part love poem, part meditation on physical longing and memory, "Passion Fruit" celebrates the eye's brief glimpses of beauty in poems frank, funny, and joyful. "I admire Daniel Bosch's Crucible very much for its inventiveness and vitality and the enviable skill of its execution. Every poem feels alive, and though they're often 'homages' to other writers, and 'after' other writers, the book is crackling throughout with an individual personality." -David Ferry
