Book excerpt: "An ambitious study, the fruit of sustained work over many years. Professor Carter's book deploys a stunning knowledge of Proust and places Carter among the first line of Proust scholars in the country." —Roger Shattuck,Boston University The Proustian Quest is the first full-length study that explores the influence of social change on Proust's vision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Annotated bibliography of the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, not only in literary texts, but in television, music, and art. The legend of Arthur has been a source of fascination for writers and artists in English since the fifteenth century, when Thomas Malory drew together for the first time in English a variety of Arthurian stories from a number of sources to form the Morte Darthur. It increased in popularity during the Victorian era, when after Tennyson's treatment of the legend, not only authors and dramatists, but painters, musicians, and film-makers found a sourceof inspiration in the Arthurian material. This interdisciplinary, annotated bibliography lists the Arthurian legend in modern English-language fiction, from 1500 to 2000, including literary texts, film, television, music, visual art, and games. It will prove an invaluable source of reference for students of literary and visual arts, general readers, collectors, librarians, and cultural historians--indeed, by anyone interested in the history of the waysin which Camelot has figured in post-medieval English-speaking cultures.

Download or read book The Adventures of Acorn and Pinecone written by John Russell Rider Ph. D. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of this book took root about fifty years ago. A 6-year old boy, taking a walk with his father in a city park, called out, "Daddy, look in this hole. There is an acorn and a pinecone. They must be friends," AND THEY ARE! IN: THE ADVENTURES OF ACORN AND PINECONE. These stories, told to dozens of "little people," since then, give human names to many creatures, both above and below ground. Some of them are: Mrs. Fruitsnips, Father Corn, Tessy Termite, Roly Poly and Mayor Catalpa. Each story carries an imbedded moral and/or ethical value. It is humorous, serious and wonderfully illustrated, and a complete fantasy from the mind of the author who is now 87 and the father of that little boy.
