Book The Rudder  Vol  38

Download or read book The Rudder Vol 38 written by Gerald T. White and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 922 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rudder, Vol. 38: January to December, 1922 Blast my mudhook! It's just ornery jealousy. Honest, we could put two of them in our hold, and still need water-ballast to ride level, and can load or unload ten thousand tons while they're waiting for a pilot to warp them up to the dock. Our Old Man, fer'ard and the Chief, aft, both keep logs to fill up their time and earn their salaries. One of them tosses over a trolling line and counts the number of bites he gets from Minnesota Point to Whitefish Bay. T'other one counts the times his shaft turns over on the same run, and then they compare notes to see who wins. I'm stuck alone up here to die, and while I have a little fight left in me. And before Dad Neptune gets out the harpoon and yanks me to Davy Jones, I'm going to do a little log. Rolling myself. Thursday, Nov. 11 - Under way at last after my weekly shot of ore. Eight thousand tons dumped into my hold in six hours is'nt bad. It's back-breaking how ever, and I shudder each time I get under the hoppers. It seems as though every rib in my side would crack when that stuff comes pounding down into me, It's snowing as we pass the outer piers of Duluth Harbor, and as I look out the hawse pipes I can see a gray, tossing, white-capped sea running on ahead before a Nor'west gale. The swabs are battening down the hatches and jamming home the ports. Soon I start rolling like a groggy souse. As each stinging wave boils up under my stern, I shiver all over like a Scrapper dazed from a stiff uppercut on the jaw. In about two shakes all sight of land is swallowed up in the storm. We lurch along at a pretty good gait, my old rheu matic backbone creaking and grinding worse and worse, and the spray beginning to lay an icy sheet over the after-cabin. The swabs start a poker game in the bunk room, but as fast as they ante in 'their chips I shake them off the table to leeward and bang their heads against the upper bunks, till they get sore and quit. Six o'clock grub is a cheerless job, - plates knocking around the table-rack, and coffee slopping all over the landscape. Some of the colts are pretty green around the gills by now, and sneak off to their bunks in short order. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book To Laugh That We May Not Weep

Download or read book To Laugh That We May Not Weep written by Glenn Bray and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art Young was one of the most renowned and incendiary political cartoonists in the first half of the 20th century. And far more ― an illustrator for magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post and Colliers, a magazine publisher, a New York State Senatorial candidate on the Socialist ticket, and perhaps the only cartoonist to be tried under the Espionage Act for sedition. He made his reputation appearing in The Masses on a regular basis using lyrical, vibrant graphics and a deep appreciation of mankind’s inherent folly to create powerful political cartoons. To Laugh That We May Not Weep is a sweeping career retrospective, reprinting ―often for the first time in 60 or 70 years― over 800 of Young’s timeless, charming, and devastating cartoons and illustrations, many reproduced from original artwork, to create a fresh new portrait of this towering figure in the worlds of cartooning and politics. With essays by Art Spiegelman, Justin Green, Art Young biographer Marc Moorash, Anthony Mourek, and Glenn Bray, with a biographical overview of Young’s life and work by Frank M. Young, To Laugh That We May Weep is a long-awaited tribute to one of the great lost cartoonists whose work is as relevant in the 21st century as it was in its own time.

Book Shaw

  • Author : Gale K. Larson
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 2001
  • ISBN : 9780271021270
  • Pages : 220 pages

Download or read book Shaw written by Gale K. Larson and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHAW 21 offers readers an eclectic perspective on Shaw, his works, and his contemporaries. Basil Langton, actor and director, reminisces about his early development as an actor, his meeting with Shaw, and his career as director of many of Shaw's plays. He focuses upon Shaw's stagecraft, augmenting his views with those of Sybil Thorndike and Sir Lewis Casson, whom he interviewed in 1960. Galen Goodwin Longstreth analyzes the correspondence between Shaw and Ellen Terry and argues that the exchange is itself a literary genre, a dramatic performance that reveals their personal identities. The next two contributors, Stanley Weintraub and Andrea Adolph, examine the Shaw/Virginia Woolf relationship. Weintraub focuses on those occasions when their respective lives touched each other, what their feelings for each other were, and how those occasions were obliquely woven into Shaw's plays, most notably Heartbreak House. Professor Adoph argues that in Woolf's only dramatic text, Freshwater: A Comedy, she was conforming to the traditional theatrical mode of the day, dominated, of course, by Shaw, but that she subverted his traditional literary depiction of paternity as, for example, the paternity dramatized in Major Barbara. Sidney Albert and Bernard Dukore provide unique perspectives on reading Major Barbara. Albert shows how John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress serves as Shaw's source for Barbara's progress toward enlightened understanding. Dukore, focusing on the perspective of the familial relationship within the play, concludes that Shaw's dialectic gives the kids the future and not the dad. It will be the next generation, not Father Undershaft, who will determine where society will go next. Julie Sparks and Martin Bucco approach Shaw from a comparative basis, juxtaposing him with two American writers, contemporaries of Shaw, Mark Twain and Sinclair Lewis, respectively. Sparks explores the commonality that exists in Shaw's and Twain's thinking about evolution, namely, their heretical visions of a post-Darwinian Eden. Both viewed conventional Christianity iconoclastically, but both arrived at different conclusions about human origin and destiny, a view Sparks describes as emanating from the deist-pessimist-evolutionary-determinist perspective versus the mystic-optimistic-creative-evolutionist perspective, or the Personal Godhead versus the Impersonal Force. Professor Bucco enumerates the many references Sinclair Lewis makes to Bernard Shaw throughout his writings, both prose and fiction, to underscore the American novelist's admiration for the Irish playwright, both recipients of the Nobel Prize for Literature. The final two contributors to SHAW 21, Rodelle Weintraub and William Doan, provide the readers with distinctive perspectives on John Bull's Other Island and The Doctor's Dilemma, respectively. Weintraub recasts the play into a dream sequence whereby Doyle's dream becomes an artifice for problem solving. Implied within Father Keegan's lines in the play, "Every dream is a prophecy: every jest is an earnest in the womb of Time," is the resolution of Doyle's problem with Nora, the girl he had left behind, and of the dream of modernizing Roscullen. Doan suggests that in The Doctor's Dilemma Shaw uses the idea of unconsummated adultery to argue for the efficacy of art over science. In the conflict between the artist and the scientist, the latter plans to have the artist's muse. In the end, not only is he deprived of the wife but also of the works of art themselves and the spirit that animates them. SHAW 21 also includes three reviews of recent additions to Shavian scholarship as well as John R. Pfeiffer's "Continuing Checklist of Shaviana."
