Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ballads and Songs of Brittany The Brittany which still retains so much of its ancient tongue, national character, and local usages, as to separate its population from that of the rest of France even more distinctly than the Welsh or the Highlanders are separated from the English, comprehends the three departments of Finistere, Morbihan, and the Cotes du Nord. These departments include the four ancient bishoprics of St, Pol de Leon, or the Leonnais, Cornouaille, Vannes, and Treguier, each of which was formerly, and is still in great measure, a district with distinct dress, usages, and local character, both in the landscape and the people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Songs of Brittany If you ask the Breton minstrel whence he, the blacksmith's son and apprentice, derives his poetic gift, his extraordinary sense of all that is most beauti ful and fascinating in his native land and its folk-lore, he will tell you, without hesitation, it dates back to his early childhood, when he would listen spellbound hour by hour to the grandmother who loved to tell the boy the old, old tales as he sat by her knee 0' nights in the soft glow of the wood fire on the kitchen hearth. And none gripped him quite so closely as those stories of the mysterious sea, whose voice, now low and soothing, now loud and terrible, was ever in his cars. So to-day there are few writers either of prose or verse who know how to express as he expresses the manifold aspects of the ocean - the true inner meaning of the lives of those who go down to the sea in ships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk-Songs of Britanny 'Twas on a February day, With waves all gray, The gallant little lad Tanguy Would go to sea. A captain's leave was quickly won. Come on! The fishing-boat sailed from the bay, Rolling away. For rolling not at all cared he, Nor pitching sea. Gaily he sang, the little son. Roll on! But one black night of storm, they say, The brig gave way. The sailors perished, all save he - In pitching sea - Left clinging to a spar alone. Hold on! And then there came a mermaid gay To where he lay, And clasped him in her arms with glee. How lovely she! She bore him home, a treasure won, Her own! Her palace 'neath the ocean gray Was fair alway, Decked with bright garlands of the sea, The rolling sea. Great fish, her guards, hither and yon Swam on!

Download or read book Brittany with Bergere Classic Reprint written by Wm M. E. Whitelock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brittany With Bergere A comprehensive picture of Brittany and the Bretons; such a picture was not in the focus of a three weeks' trip in a dog-cart. Far less have I endeavored to set forth the customs, the history, the monuments of the country; these have been already amply recorded. Rather have I sought to imprison the elusive spirit of a happy, unfet tered ramble, to sketch lightly the color, the warmth, the music of it all truly, an almost im possible task for cold prose. Yet, if I have been able to give some faint idea of the magic charm of Brittany, its simple, unspoiled people and their simple, placid life; if I have been able to hint at the joy of such a trip as ours and the ease with which it is made; if, above all, I have been able to suggest unrealized possibilities to those who love to see a country as it really is, I shall feel that I have not entirely failed in my purpose. At least I can know that the pleasure of writing these few chapters has not been wholly selfish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Reading Proverbs Intertextually written by Katharine J. Dell and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sitting alongside the partner volumes Reading Job Intertextually (2012) and Reading Ecclesiastes Intertextually (2014) also published in the Library of Hebrew and Old testament Studies, this addition to the series continues the study of intertextuality in the Hebrew Bible. Dell and Kynes provide the first comprehensive treatment of intertextuality in Proverbs. Topics addressed include the intertextual resonances between Proverbs, and texts across the Hebrew canon, as well as texts throughout history, from the Dead Sea Scrolls to African and Chinese proverbial literature. The contributions, though comprehensive, do not provide clear-cut answers, but rather invite further study into connections between Proverbs and external texts, highlighting ideas and issues in relation to the extra texts discussed themselves. The volume gathers together scholars with specific expertise on the array of texts that intersect with Proverbs and these scholars in turn bring their own insights to the texts at hand. In particular the contributors have been encouraged to pursue the intertextual approach that best suits their topic, thereby offering readers a valuable collection of intertextual case studies that address a single biblical book.
