Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sublime Tragedy of the Lost Cause The story of the old soldier; whose silvery locks Were lovingly mingled with the golden hair Of a beautiful girl who was sleeping there On his battle-scarred breast. The great civil war of America - that heroic struggle of the southern people in defence of the Lost Cause, against the stupendous power of the North, wielded in support of the Federal Union - furnished many a tragic incident of sellsacrifice and noble devotion, worthy to be celebrated in song or woven into the fabric of romance; but there is no private history - of which I know anything as full of dramatic effects as the one I now propose to relate. Nor can I think of one more closely interwoven with those great events that have rendered this beautiful region historic events that transpired, my child, before your fair face had made the world brighter, or these golden curls had coiled themselves so closely around your grandfather's heart.

Book A Lost Cause  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Lost Cause Classic Reprint written by Guy Thorne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Lost Cause A few words are necessary in preface to this story. After When It Was Dark made its appearance, the writer received a great number of letters from his readers, and up to the present moment he still continues to receive them. Out of nearly two hundred communications, a large proportion are concerned not so much with the main issue of the tale, as with controversial matters in the Church of England arising from it. The definitely Catholic tone of the first book aroused, as might be expected, vigorous protest, and no less vigorous commendation. The five or six Bishops - and many other dignitaries - who preached or lectured about the story avoided the controversial sides of it.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Lost Cause, Vol. 3 of 3: A Story of the Last Rebellion in Poland The days passed without Count Jagellon perceiving any abnormal change in his state of existence after the important step he had taken at Mr. Mentzel's shop. It is true that he did not look out for any particular change in his condition, he looked out merely for certain letters in a certain handwriting. Perhaps they were not very interesting letters, certainly not interesting to the general world, but they were what he most desired at the moment. He lived in a state in which realities were turned into vague dreams, and dreams into realities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tragedy of the Unexpected: And Other Stories "Jim, old man, what's up?" "I don't know's anything is up," was the rather surly response to this question. "Oh yes, there is, there's been something to pay with you for the last three days, and you might as well out with it, for I tell you what, I can't stand this sort of thing any longer if you and I are to be joint occupants of this parlor." "What sort of thing, I should like to know?" was the still more surly response to this appeal, accompanied by a sudden movement of the square shoulders and an upward fling of the bent head which brought into the light a face with a look of haughty questioning upon it. The other only laughed a little as he met this look; he did n't seem at all impressed by it; laughed, and presently went on: - "No, I can't stand it, Jim. That's a fact.

Book Approaches to Teaching Milton s Paradise Lost

Download or read book Approaches to Teaching Milton s Paradise Lost written by Peter C. Herman and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of Approaches to Teaching Milton's Paradise Lost addresses Milton in the light of the digital age, new critical approaches to his poem, and his continued presence in contemporary culture. It aims to help instructors enliven the teaching of Paradise Lost and address the challenges presented to students by the poem-- the early modern syntax and vocabulary, the political and theological contexts, and the abounding classical references. The first part of the volume, "Materials," evaluates the many available editions of the poem, points to relevant reference works, recommends additional reading, and outlines useful audiovisual and online aids for teaching Milton's epic poem. The essays in the second part, "Approaches," are grouped by several themes: literary and historical contexts, characters, poetics, critical approaches, classrooms, and performance. The essays cover epic conventions and literary and biblical allusions, new approaches such as ecocriticism and masculinity studies, and reading Milton on the Web, among other topics.

Book The Sublime Object of Ideology

Download or read book The Sublime Object of Ideology written by Slavoj Žižek and published by Verso. This book was released on 1989 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this provocative and original work, Slavoj _i_ek takes a look at the question of human agency in a postmodern world. From the sinking of the Titanic to Hitchcock’s Rear Window, from the operas of Wagner to science fiction, from Alien to the Jewish Joke, the author’s acute analyses explore the ideological fantasies of wholeness and exclusion which make up human society. _i_ek takes issue with analysts of the postmodern condition from Habermas to Sloterdijk, showing that the idea of a ‘post-ideological’ world ignores the fact that ‘even if we do not take things seriously, we are still doing them’. Rejecting postmodernism’s unified world of surfaces, he traces a line of thought from Hegel to Althusser and Lacan, in which the human subject is split, divided by a deep antagonism which determines social reality and through which ideology operates. Linking key psychoanalytical and philosophical concepts to social phenomena such as totalitarianism and racism, the book explores the political significance of these fantasies of control. In so doing, The Sublime Object of Ideology represents a powerful contribution to a psychoanalytical theory of ideology, as well as offering persuasive interpretations of a number of contemporary cultural formations.

Download or read book Keats s Reading Reading Keats written by Beth Lau and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-12 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores John Keats’s reading practices and intertextual dialogues with other writers.

Finally, the book honors the distinguished Keats scholar Jack Stillinger and includes an essay surveying his career as well as a bibliography of his major publications. The first section of the volume, “Theorizing Keats’s Reading,” contains four essays that identify major patterns in the poet’s reading habits and responses to other works. The next section, “Keats’s Reading,” consists of six essays that examine Keats’s work in relation to specific earlier authors and texts. The four essays in the third section, “Reading Keats,” consider how Keats’s poetry influenced the work of later writers and became embedded in British and American literary traditions. The final section of the book, “Contemporary Poetic Responses,” features three scholar-poets who, in poetry and/or prose commentary, discuss and exemplify Keats’s impact on their work.
