Book excerpt: Excerpt from Garrison in Heaven: A Dream I am a great dreamer. I cannot sleep, even for a moment, without dreaming and, although my dreams are generally composed of incongruous and unmeaning stuff, some of them are, I think, worthy of notice. Of this character is the one I am going to tell you. In my dream I stood by the bedside of the dying Gar rison, and watched his spirit as it ebbed and flowed, like the pulsing tide, in its efforts to free itself from the no longer needed body; and saw the smile of satisfaction, alternating with a look of regret, as he felt the freedom of his new existence, and saw the sorrow of the survivors, Many were the objects of interest that detained him in Boston, and near his dearest friends. He attended the funeral, and heard the eloquent oration of Phillips; and, having learned to move with readiness at will, he visited the South, and left his blessing in many a negro's hut. In Kansas he looked with interest upon the dusky South ern emigrants, who, in pursuit of their full liberty as citi zens, had braved the fury of the northern storms. I followed him to Hayti, to England, to Liberia, and then to Cuba, and saw him rejoice as he beheld the promise of a free world.

Book The Classical Debt

  • Author : Johanna Hanink
  • Publisher : Harvard University Press
  • Release : 2017-05-22
  • ISBN : 0674978307
  • Pages : 212 pages

Download or read book The Classical Debt written by Johanna Hanink and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-22 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since the International Monetary Fund’s first bailout of Greece’s sinking economy in 2010, the phrase “Greek debt” has meant one thing to the country’s creditors. But for millions who claim to prize culture over capital, it means something quite different: the symbolic debt that Western civilization owes to Greece for furnishing its principles of democracy, philosophy, mathematics, and fine art. Where did this other idea of Greek debt come from, Johanna Hanink asks, and why does it remain so compelling today? The Classical Debt investigates our abiding desire to view Greece through the lens of the ancient past. Though classical Athens was in reality a slave-owning imperial power, the city-state of Socrates and Pericles is still widely seen as a utopia of wisdom, justice, and beauty—an idealization that the ancient Athenians themselves assiduously cultivated. Greece’s allure as a travel destination dates back centuries, and Hanink examines many historical accounts that express disappointment with a Greek people who fail to live up to modern fantasies of the ancient past. More than any other movement, the spread of European philhellenism in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries carved idealized conceptions of Greece in marble, reinforcing the Western habit of comparing the Greece that is with the Greece that once was. Today, as the European Union teeters and neighboring nations are convulsed by political unrest and civil war, Greece finds itself burdened by economic hardship and an unprecedented refugee crisis. Our idealized image of ancient Greece dangerously shapes how we view these contemporary European problems.

Book The Dream of Scipio

    Book Details:
  • Author : Iain Pears
  • Publisher : Vintage Canada
  • Release : 2010-08-06
  • ISBN : 0307370887
  • Pages : 539 pages

Download or read book The Dream of Scipio written by Iain Pears and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-08-06 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three narratives, set in the fifth, fourteenth, and twentieth centuries, all revolving around an ancient text and each with a love story at its centre, are the elements of this brilliantly ingenious novel, a follow-up to the international bestseller An Instance of the Fingerpost. The centuries are the 5th (the final days of the Roman Empire); the 14th (the years of the Plague — the Black Death); and the 20th (World War II). The setting for each is the same — Provence — and each has at its heart a love story. The narratives intertwine seamlessly, and what joins them thematically is an ancient text — “The Dream of Scipio” — a work of neo-Platonism that poses timeless philosophical questions. What is the obligation of the individual in a society under siege? What is the role of learning when civilization itself is threatened, whether by acts of man or nature? Does virtue lie more in engagement or in neutrality? “Power without wisdom is tyranny; wisdom without power is pointless,” warns one of Pears’s characters. The Dream of Scipio is a bona fide novel of ideas, a dazzling feat of storytelling, fiction for our times.
