  • ISBN : 9781519111869
  • Pages : 118 pages

Download or read book Scribbles and Scraps written by Phil R. Bayton and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-04 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of poems, prose and sonnets, covering all genres from love to dark horror. Written over ten years there is a mix of easy reading and thought provoking material from a new writer. In this short book, a roller coaster of emotions from page to page will affect the reader. 'One night in the morning' is a story of love and realisation while 'Paranoid' grips at those feelings hidden deep inside you. The Kyrielle sonnets are a small compilation mixing the chase for love and while the prose are aggressive to modern day society and speak to us all. Taking inspiration from Wilfred Owen, Phil Bayton has tried to capture the vivid imagery in all of the emotions we have, even the most uncomfortable ones usually hidden away.

Book Few Of My Initial Scribbles

Download or read book Few Of My Initial Scribbles written by Malay Pramanick and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like the heroes and villains, a poet is made not born. There's a limit of pain that one can endure, even an artist. But how much pain makes one a poet? This anthology is a collection of a first few poems as composed by the author. It covers some of the turmoil the poet had to go through in his life that led him to writing poems. There are various reasons one cannot be with their beloved and at times that pain cannot be captured by some words. We have to accept the pain and live with it. Most of the poems in this collection hover around unrequited love, ranging from the poet's personal experiences to his friends' experiences, circumstances he has been a part of, seen, or heard. This anthology even has a poem that describes the very first incident that made him realise that sometimes the journey from solitude to loneliness is just an eye contact.

Book Renaissance in Italy  Italian Literature

Download or read book Renaissance in Italy Italian Literature written by John Addington Symonds and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 1104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ThisÊwork on the Renaissance in Italy, of which I now give the last two volumes to the public, was designed and executed on the plan of an essay or analytical inquiry, rather than on that which is appropriate to a continuous history. Each of its four partsÑtheÊAge of the Despots, theRevival of Learning, theÊFine Arts, andÊItalian LiteratureÑstood in my mind for a section; each chapter for a paragraph; each paragraph for a sentence. At the same time, it was intended to make the first three parts subsidiary and introductory to the fourth, for which accordingly a wider space and a more minute method of treatment were reserved. The first volume was meant to explain the social and political conditions of Italy; the second to relate the exploration of the classical past which those conditions necessitated, and which determined the intellectual activity of the Italians; the third to exhibit the bias of this people toward figurative art, and briefly to touch upon its various manifestations; in order that, finally, a correct point of view might be obtained for judging of their national literature in its strength and limitations. Literature must always prove the surest guide to the investigator of a people's character at some decisiveÊepoch. To literature, therefore, I felt that the plan of my book allowed me to devote two volumes. The subject of my inquiry rendered the method I have described, not only natural but necessary. Yet there are special disadvantages, to which progressive history is not liable, in publishing a book of this sort by installments. Readers of the earlier parts cannot form a just conception of the scope and object of the whole. They cannot perceive the relation of its several sections to each other, or give the author credit for his exercise of judgment in the marshaling and development of topics. They criticise each portion independently, and desire a comprehensiveness in parts which would have been injurious to the total scheme. Furthermore, this kind of book sorely needs an Index, and its plan renders a general Index, such as will be found at the end of the last volume, more valuable than one made separately for each part.

Book The Family and Democractic Society

Download or read book The Family and Democractic Society written by Joseph K. Folsom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is Volume IV of twenty-one in a series on the Sociology of Gender and the Family. Originally published in 1949, this is a development of the author's previous work that recommended action in the areas of 'social psychiatry' or 'individual adjustments'. The focus of the present volume is the study of the needed changes on the societal and cultural level. Individual personality adjustments are studied not as the only thing we can do about it, but as a source of guidance as to what social action is needed.

Book Some Scribbles

  • Author : Malay Pramanick
  • Publisher : Notion Press
  • Release : 2021-09-07
  • ISBN : 9781685382070
  • Pages : 82 pages

Download or read book Some Scribbles written by Malay Pramanick and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second anthology of poems by the poet. The poems cover some of the turmoil the poet had gone through in his life that brought him back to poetry. Often people come across and get to know each other, fall in love and get separated for certain reasons; sometimes even by choice. The pain of that separation, at times, breaks some and cannot be captured by mere words. Accepting the pain, living with it and getting used to it, is what one might struggle with. With that pain, they might reflect on life and devote that pain to art. Most of the poems in this collection hover around heartbreaks, and heartbreaks do not always concern a romantic affair.

Book Scribbles  Sorrows  and Russet Leather Boots  The Life of Louisa May Alcott

Download or read book Scribbles Sorrows and Russet Leather Boots The Life of Louisa May Alcott written by Liz Rosenberg and published by Candlewick Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insightful, exciting, and deeply moving, Liz Rosenberg’s distinctive portrait of the author of Little Women reveals some of her life’s more complex and daring aspects. Moody and restless, teenage Louisa longed for freedom. Faced with the expectations of her loving but hapless family, the Alcotts, and of nineteenth-century New England society, Louisa struggled to find her place. On long meandering runs through the woods behind Orchard House, she thought about a future where she could write and think and dream. Undaunted by periods of abject poverty and enriched by friendships with some of the greatest minds of her time and place, she was determined to have this future, no matter the cost. Drawing on the surviving journals and letters of Louisa and her family and friends, author and poet Liz Rosenberg reunites Louisa May Alcott with her most ardent readers. In this warm and sometimes heartbreaking biography, Rosenberg delves deep into the oftentimes secretive life of a woman who was ahead of her time, imbued with social conscience, and always moving toward her future with a determination that would bring her fame, tragedy, and the realization of her biggest dreams.

Book Crockett Johnson and Ruth Krauss

Download or read book Crockett Johnson and Ruth Krauss written by Philip Nel and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2012-07-30 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Children’s Literature Association’s 2014 Honor Book Award Crockett Johnson (born David Johnson Leisk, 1906–1975) and Ruth Krauss (1901–1993) were a husband-and-wife team that created such popular children's books as The Carrot Seed and How to Make an Earthquake. Separately, Johnson created the enduring children's classic Harold and the Purple Crayon and the groundbreaking comic strip Barnaby. Krauss wrote over a dozen children's books illustrated by others, and pioneered the use of spontaneous, loose-tongued kids in children's literature. Together, Johnson and Krauss's style—whimsical writing, clear and minimalist drawing, and a child's point-of-view—is among the most revered and influential in children's literature and cartooning, inspiring the work of Maurice Sendak, Charles M. Schulz, Chris Van Allsburg, and Jon Scieszka. This critical biography examines their lives and careers, including their separate achievements when not collaborating. Using correspondence, sketches, contemporary newspaper and magazine accounts, archived and personal interviews, author Philip Nel draws a compelling portrait of a couple whose output encompassed children's literature, comics, graphic design, and the fine arts. Their mentorship of now-famous illustrator Maurice Sendak (Where the Wild Things Are) is examined at length, as is the couple's appeal to adult contemporaries such as Duke Ellington and Dorothy Parker. Defiantly leftist in an era of McCarthyism and Cold War paranoia, Johnson and Krauss risked collaborations that often contained subtly rendered liberal themes. Indeed, they were under FBI surveillance for years. Their legacy of considerable success invites readers to dream and to imagine, drawing paths that take them anywhere they want to go.

Download or read book Sweetness and Strength written by Lene Østermark-Johansen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this volume explores the reinvention of Michelangelo in the Victorian era. At the opening of the nineteenth century, Michelangelo’s reputation rested on the evidence of contemporary adulation recorded by Vasari and Condivi. Travel, photography, the shift of his drawings into public collections, and, in particular, the publication of his poems in their original form, transformed this situation. The complexity of his work commanded new attention and several biographies were published. As public curiosity and knowledge of the artist increased, so various groups began to ally themselves to aspects of Michelangelo’s persona. His Renaissance reputation as a towering genius, a man of great spiritual courage, who had journeyed through and for his art to the depths of despair, was important to the Pre-Raphaelites and other artists. His love for his own ‘Dark Lady’, Vittoria Colonna, aroused excited speculation among High Church advocates, who celebrated his friendship with the deeply religious woman-poet; and the emerging awareness that some half of his love poetry was dedicated to a younger man, Tommaso de’ Cavalieri, was of intense interest to the aestheticists, among them Oscar Wilde, Walter Pater and J.A. Symonds, who sought heroic figures from societies where masculinity was less rigorously defined. In this original and beautifully illustrated study, Lene Østermark-Johansen shows how the critical discussion of the artist’s genius and work became irretrievably bound up in contemporary debates about art, religion and gender and how the Romantic view of art and criticism as self-expression turned the focus from the work of art to the artist himself such that the two could never again be viewed in isolation.
