Download or read book The Centaur Esprios Classics written by Algernon Blackwood and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algernon Henry Blackwood (1869-1951) was an English writer of tales of the supernatural. In his late thirties, Blackwood started to write horror stories. He was very successful, writing ten books of short stories and appearing on both radio and television to tell them. He also wrote fourteen novels and a number of plays, most of which were produced but not published. He was an avid lover of nature, and many of his stories reflect this. Although Blackwood wrote a number of horror stories, his most typical work seeks less to frighten than to induce a sense of awe. Good examples are the novels The Centaur (1911) and Julius LeVallon (1916) and its sequel The Bright Messenger (1921).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Centaur Not Fabulous: In Six Letters to a Friend; On the Life in Vogue And farther, I call them Centaurs not fabulous because by their scarce half-human conduct, and character, that enigmatical, and purely ideal figure of the Antients, is not unriddled only, but realized. Your Ladyship's curiosity is great; and you, possibly, are willing to know what account antiquity gives of the family, or rather breed, of the Centaurs. It is as follows. Of the Centaurs the most celebrated was Chiron. He was a great Botanist and our bitter herb Centory takes its name from him. He thought all herbs bitter, because, being very amorous, he could not find any amongst them, that could abate the fever in his blood; and he left a complaint in the Greek language to that purpose which Ovid, sick of the same disease, has translated, and transmitted to posterity in his works.
