Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Third Miss. Symons Miss mayor's story is of a delicate quality, not common here, though occurring at intervals, and always sure of a choice, if not very large, audience among those who like in art the refined movement and the gentle line. Her subject, like her method, is one not commonly chosen by women writers; it is simply the life of an unmarried idle woman of the last genera tion, a life (to some eyes) of wasted leisure and deep futility, but common enough, and getting from its permitted commonness a justification from life, who is wasteful but roughly just. Miss Mayor tells this story with singular skill, more by contrast than by drama, bringing her chief character into relief against her world, as it passes in swift procession. Her tale is in a form becoming common among our best writers; it is compressed into a space about. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.

Download or read book Culturgeschichtliche Novellen written by W. H. Riehl and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culturgeschichtliche Novellen It is as in some sort an introduction to such a study of German as I have endeavoured to indicate, so far as this is possible under the limitations of a commentary on a given text, that the present volume has been prepared. The notes are numerous and copious, but I trust they will commend themselves as not of the kind that paralyse the student's own mental activity by superseding the necessity for it; but rather as stimulating it by presenting suitable material in a workable form, and furnishing guidance in such a way as to lead to future independence. The material has of course been supplied in the first place by the text itself. This has been to a small extent supplemented, but chiefly elucidated and illustrated, by matter drawn from sources many of them inaccessible to the English reader. A not inconsiderable element may lay some claim to origi nality, and perhaps this will be the most valuable part of the book to the real student, because treating from the objective standpoint of the foreigner, specially of the Englishman, matters of idiomatic difficulty upon which only scattered hints are to be found in sources English or German. I may refer particularly to the notes on the particles, on the exact force, as felt in the original, of words like erst, z'ibrzlgms, vol lends, &c., and of certain familiar but peculiar modes of con ception and expression which are too completely ingrained in the consciousness of a native for him easily to make them the objects of analysis or of explanation to others.

Download or read book Her Honor the Mayor written by Mary Modena Burns and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Her Honor the Mayor: A Comedy in Three Acts Her Honor the Mayor is intended to be a good-natured satire on the woman's rights question, neither for nor against the movement, but written for the sole purpose of providing a little fun as a two hours relaxation for the tired business man or business woman. Eve Greenway, a wealthy young lady, is engaged to Lester Parmenter, who is a candidate for mayor of the town. The newspaper announces that Lester is to make a speech denouncing the suffragists, and three of their number call on Eve in their indignation. Eve is equally indignant and joins their party. She tells Lester that he must choose between her and his party, if they insist on him making the antisuffrage speech. Mr. McGoon, his political manager, arrives and tells him that he must make the speech, promising that if he does so he will be sure of election. Lester refuses and even declares his intention of making a speech favoring the cause. McGoon steals the anti-suffrage speech and determines to make it himself. But how shall he keep Lester away from the meeting? He determines to drug him and hires Eliza Goober, the "cullud" hired girl, to do the work. By a mistake Eve herself drinks the drug and falls asleep. The rest of the play is Eves dream. She dreams that she and Lester are married and that she has been elected mayor of the town. The men have been deprived of the ballot and the second act shows them doing the work formerly done by the women. Lester is housekeeper and McGoon the hired girl. Eliza Goober is now the Chief of Police. Her Honor the Mayor allows herself to be bribed and thus puts herself in the power of Lieutenant McNabb of the good ship Susan B.Anthony, who is the villain of the play. Lieutenant McNabb proposes to Eves brother Clarence and is about to expose Eve when she is thwarted by the brave and noble Chief of the Fire Department, formerly Miss Doris Denton.

Download or read book Noah s Wife written by Lindsay Starck and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of Daniel Wallace’s Big Fish and Eowyn Ivey’s The Snow Child, a gorgeously written and fable-like novel recasting Noah’s Ark as a story of relationships, courage, resilience, and hope. “Variously romantic, symbolic, philosophical, feminist, and fanciful, this is an atmospheric tale that meanders to a sweetly rousing conclusion. . . . Forget the ark, forget the patriarch. It's the women who tend to triumph in this modern take on an Old Testament parable.” – Kirkus Reviews In loving Noah, his wife never imagined she’d end up in this gray and wet little town where it’s been raining for as long as anyone can remember. Newly appointed as pastor, Noah is determined to bring the eccentric townspeople back to the church, but the members of his congregation only want to keep their homes afloat. As the water swallows up the houses, the renowned zoo, and the single highway out of town, Noah, his wife, and their new neighbors must confront not only the savage forces of nature but also the fragile ties that bind them to one another. Poignant and whimsical, playful and wise, Noah’s Wife challenges our expectations of love, commitment, and redemption. By reimagining this classic story in a new and modern light, the novel asks: how do we know when to stay and when it’s time to go?
