Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jerusalem Delivered of Torquato Tasso, Vol. 1 of 2: Translated Into English Verse If the magnitude of the undertaking be in itself sufficient reason for abstaining from any further notice of his life, the same consideration restrains me from making any but the slightest allusion to his immortal work, which, as has been well Observed, whether we regard the magnificence of its language, its moral grandeur, the chivalrous self-devotion of its heroes, or the sanctity and sublimity of its subject, may well sustain comparison with either of the two great poems of antiquity, and is, beyond question, t/ze epic of modern times. We may search in vain through the pages of Homer or Virgil for any character possessing equal interest with that of its hero, Godfred, whose affections, warm and ennobling as they are, appear to be obliterated by the perpetual sense of a sacred duty superior to them all. He is the personification of the Church militant combating for its Saviour's cause. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Liberation of Jerusalem written by Torquato Tasso and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2009-02-12 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The bitter tragedy of human life— horrors of death, attack, retreat, advance, and the great game of Destiny and Chance. ' In The Liberation of Jerusalem (Gerusalemme liberata, 1581), Torquato Tasso set out to write an epic to rival the Iliad and the Aeneid. Unlike his predecessors, he took his subject not from myth but from history: the Christian capture of Jerusalem during the First Crusade. The siege of the city is played out alongside a magical romance of love and sacrifice, in which the Christian knight Rinaldo succumbs to the charms of the pagan sorceress Armida, and the warrior maiden Clorinda inspires a fatal passion in the Christian Tancred. Tasso's masterpiece left its mark on writers from Spenser and Milton to Goethe and Byron, and inspired countless painters and composers. This is the first English translation in modern times that faithfully reflects both the sense and the verse form of the original. Max Wickert's fine rendering is introduced by Mark Davie, who places Tasso's poem in the context of his life and times and points to the qualities that have ensured its lasting impact on Western culture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jerusalem Delivered of Torquato Tasso, Vol. 1 of 2: Translated Into English Spenserian Verse, With a Life of the Author Might not have been an uninteresting addition, but this has been already given to a considerable extent; and were it otherwise, the undertaking would be inconsistent with my views in having embodied the work in its present form and size, with the same embellishments, and without any material omission of matter in the much more ex pensive original edition.

Download or read book Ordinary Violence in Mussolini s Italy written by Michael R. Ebner and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ordinary Violence in Mussolini's Italy reveals the centrality of violence to Fascist rule, arguing that the Mussolini regime projected its coercive power deeply and diffusely into society through confinement, imprisonment, low-level physical assaults, economic deprivations, intimidation, discrimination, and other everyday forms of coercion. Fascist repression was thus more intense and ideological than previously thought and even shared some important similarities with Nazi and Soviet terror.
