Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critic and the Drama The imprisoning Of it in a tangible dream. Criticism is the dream book. All art is a kind of subconscious madness expressed in terms Of sanity; criticism is essential to the interpretation Of its mysteries, for about everything truly beautiful there is ever some thing mysterious and disconcerting. Beauty is not always immediately recognizable as beauty; what Often passes for beauty is mere infatuation; living beauty is like a love that has outlasted the middle-years Of life, and has met triumphantly the test Of time, and faith, and cynic meditation. For beauty is a sleep walker in the endless corridors Of the wakeful world, uncertain, groping, and not a little.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critic in the Occident: Illustrated From Photographs My most vivid impression of Naples, after nine days' stay, was that of a city of stucco and stone. Most of the buildings are of yellow stucco that mellows with age; the streets and sidewalks are of a hard, dark stone that wears smooth with long use. In the densely populated streets huge buildings rise for six or seven stories and leaving nothing but a narrow slit of blue sky between them; massive stone walls brace up the sides of the hills, and many nar row stone steps lead up the steep hillside. Looking down upon the city from the suppressed Carthusian monastery of San Martino, these streets appear like deep clefts in solid lines of masonry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from De Quincey as Literary Critic Extracts - a pitiable method! Young people have time to read long books and the imagination to seize all'the great things.' In these words the great Napoleon justly condemned the practice of making 'snibrets' of literature the staple of education. But the criticism is often carried farther, and With less reason. We have all heard anthologies condemned again and again as superficial things. Everybody, it is said, ought to make his own anthology. An admirable counsel of perfection, which becomes every year less and less possible of fulfilment as year by year the printing presses of all the nations increase indefinitely the vast piles of books already existing in the world. Even so genuine a lover of literature as Sir Arthur quiller-couch has lately expressed some gratitude to those who burnt the great library at Alexandria and destroyed an immense amount of the accumulated rubbish of the ancient world. The real charge against them, he says, is not that they burnt, but only that they burnt indiscriminately. In other words, he does not blame them for making an anthology, or even for making it violently, but only for making it badly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays From "the Critic" Nature, methinks, a singular yearning toward all wildness. Again and again he returns to the Indian: We talk of civilizing the Indian, but that is not the name for his im provement. By the wary independence and aloofness of his dim forest life he preserves his intercourse with his native gods, and is admitted from time to time to a rare and peculiar society with Nature. He has glances of starry recognition, to which our saloons are strangers. The steady illumination of his genius, dim only because distant, is like the faint but satisfying light of the stars compared with the dazzling but ineffectual and Short-lived blaze of candles. We would not always be soothing and taming nature, breaking the horse and the ox, but sometimes ride the horse wild, and chase the buffalo. The only relics that interest him are Indian relics. One of his regular Spring recreations or occupations is the hunting of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "This is a mystery with Gaillac flavor to be savored" --Mystery Scene Magazine "A finely crafted and surprising mystery" --Kirkus Reviews The body of Gil Petty, America's most celebrated wine critic, is found strung up in a French Gaillac vineyard, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Divine Bottle and pickled in wine. For forensic expert Enzo Macleod, the key to this unsolved murder lies in decoding Petty's mysterious reviews, which could make or break a vineyard's reputation. As he digs deeper for the motivation behind the shocking crime, Macleod finds that beneath the tranquil façade of French viticulture lurks a back-stabbing community characterized by a deadly rivalry--and home to someone who is ready to stop him even if they have to kill again to stop the investigation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critic, Vol. 27: A Weekly Review of Literature and the Arts; July-December 1895 Readers OF Plato's Republic will find in Bernard Bosan quet's Companion to Plato's Republic for English Readers an invaluable help. The book is a commentary adapted to Davies and Vaughan's translation. Its introduction contains some very pertinent notes on the popular Greek ideal of happiness, the Greek household, the age of Plato, and the unity of the state. It is throughout so well done that we foresee it will be found to have met a real need. (macmillan Co.) the elements OF inductive logic, a text-book, by Prof. Noah K. Davis, is a companion volume to the same author's Elements of Deductive Logic. The book has many attractive features, but neither in method nor in content is it different from long-standing text-books on the same subject. (harper Bros.) matter, force and spirit; or, Scientific Evidence of a Supreme Intelligence, is a little book published without name of author. (g. P. Put nam's Sons.) A valuable book to students of Lotze's phil osophy is A Critical Account of the Philosophy of Lotze: The Doctrine of Thought. By Henry Jones of the University of Glas gow, at one time a pupil of Lotze. (macmillan Co.) A new text-book in ethics comes from Columbia. Ele ments of Ethics is the work of Prof. J. H. Hyslop, who launched a text-book on Logic a few years ago. The Ethics is a much bet ter piece of work than the Logic. It shows, in the first place, more independence of arrangement and treatment, and, secondly, some freshness in conception. It is, however, too plainly a text book of the conventional type. It is not in the spirit of what is called the inductive method, and is notably deficient in referen ces for collateral reading; a book rather for the memory than for the understanding, for the receptive than for the constructive and active, searching mind. It is a good, readable book, but in the light of current ideals in education it is not altogether a promising text-book. Text-books nowadays should be rather guide-books than text-books. (charles Scribner's Sons). A more promis ing book for the class-room is Dewey's The Study of Ethics. A Syllabus. It is rather carelessly prepared. And is not a very successful bit of book-making, but the fact that it was made up of sheets printed from time to time through the year for class use, in part accounts for these external defects. Prof. Dewey believes that amid the prevalence of pathological and moralistic Ethics there is room for a theory which conceives of conduct as the nor mal and free living of life as it is. He undertakes, accordingly, a thorough psychological analysis of the process of active experience, deriving from this analysis the principal ethical types and crises. He does not teach ethics. He does. On the contrary, the rather original and the highly valuable thing of conducting an investiga tion in the sphere of conduct. Illustrations of all sorts, and ref crenees to philosophical literature, are on every page. Users of this book. However, whether instructors or pupils, are under the wholesome necessity of thinking.

This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible and the Critic In virtue of our wider knowledge, our truer perspective, and our more impartial and objective modes of thought, we can often solve Biblical problems to-day far more thoroughly and comprehensively than has ever been the case since the dawn of history. This may sound presumptuous, but it is better to be candid and face the facts than to assume an attitude of sanctimonious ignorance and morbidity, which is generally the cloak of conceit. Of course the Laudator temporal acti or the type of man who stepped reading thirty years ago, is still in our midst, and persists, from time to time, in chiming in, often in good faith. Is not this the presumption of science falsely so called? How have you come to hold this higher vantage ground of which you self-styled Higher critics boast? Can you furnish substantial grounds for your bold assertion that you are really wiser about some Bible questions than the Biblical authors themselves? How has your know ledge been increased a thousand-fold above even that of our immediate ancestors? The only real difficulty which confronts us in answering these questions is the lack of space incidental to every magazine article, which always renders it extremely difficult to'treat a great subject comprehensively, thoroughly, and with dignity. Our modern critical attitude towards the Bible - and this is the real question at issue, including as it does all thew previously raised - is mainly the product of three factors, ultimately reducible to one, that is, to a three-fold extension of our knowledge. This extension is due to three discoveries, which, regarded as organised branches of learning, constitute the three new sciences of I. Comparative Philology, II. Archaeology, and III.
