Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supernatural in the Tragedies of Euripides: As Illustrated in Prayers, Curses, Oaths, Oracles, Prophecies, Dreams and Visions To my esteemed instructor in Greek and Sanskrit Literature, Professor J. T. Lees, Ph.D., Head of Department of Greek History and Literature in the University of Nebraska, who has aided me especially in the composition of this thesis, I owe a great debt of gratitude. He has suggested the subject, and to his valuable counsel and assistance important corrections and improvements are due. I have further consulted in one way or other nearly all the books and monographs mentioned in the bibliography. Considerable use has been made of the following works: J. Adam: "Religious Teachers of Greece"; C. H. Moore: "The Religious Thought of the Greeks"; C. F. Whitmore: "The Supernatural in Tragedy"; W. Nestle: "Euripides, der Dichter der griechischen Aufklarung"; P. Decharme: "Euripide et l'esprit de son theatre." In quoting from the original I have availed myself of the Teubner text. Deviations from this have been noted where they occur. Excepting some of the fragments the translations are by A. S. Way, in the Loeb Classical Library, Heinemann, 1912.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supernatural in Tragedy The present volume, save for a few excisions and corrections, is substantially the thesis presented by me at Harvard University in 1911 for the doctorate in Comparative Literature. It makes no pretence to exhaust the field which it undertakes to survey; indeed, I hope that its publication may serve to stimulate additional research, not only in the drama of countries not here dealt with, but in other departments of literary activity. I trust, however, that the principles here enunciated are sufficiently well grounded to be a useful basis for such investigation. I desire to make a general acknowledgement of thanks to all the members of the Division of Modem Languages at Harvard whom I had occasion to consult in the course of the work, for helpful criticisms and suggestions; to Professor H. W. Smyth, for inspiration derived from his lectures on Greek literature; and to Professor E. K. Rand, for help in running down the quotation from Eusebius discussed in the section on the liturgical drama. I have endeavored to make the bibliography a complete list of books and articles dealing specifically with the supernatural in tragedy; but some items, particularly in the modem section, may well have escaped me, and I should be grateful for additions or corrections.

Book The Supernatural in Modern English Fiction

Download or read book The Supernatural in Modern English Fiction written by Dorothy Scarborough and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Supernatural in Modern English Fiction by Dorothy Scarborough Ph.D. (Author) PREFACE THE subject of the supernatural in modern English fiction has been found difficult to deal with because of its wealth of material. While there has been no previous book on the topic, and none related to it, save Mr. C. E. Whitmore's work on The Supernatural in Tragedy, the mass of fiction itself introducing ghostly or psychic motifs is simply enormous. It is manifestly impossible to discuss, or even to mention, all of it. Even in my bibliography which numbers over three thousand titles, I have made no effort to list all the available examples of the type. The bibliography, which I at first intended to publish in connection with this volume, is far too voluminous to be included here, so will probably be brought out later by itself. It would have been impossible for me to prosecute the research work or to write the book save for the assistance generously given by many persons We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tragedy of Hamlet The variants given are only those of importance and high authority. The spelling and the punctuation of the text are mod crn, except in the case of verb terminations in -cd', which, when the e is silent, are printed with the apostrophe in its place. This is the general usage in the First Folio. The im portant contractions in the First Folio which may indicate Elizabethan pronunciation i' th for 'in the, ' for example) are also followed. Modern spelling has to a certain extent been adopted in the text variants; but the original spelling has been retained wherever its peculiarities have been the basis for important textual criticism and emendation. With the exception of the position of the textual vari ants, the plan of this edition is similar to that of the old Hudson Shakespeare. It is impossible to specify the vari ous instances of revision and rearrangement in the matter of the Introduction and the interpretative notes, but the endeavor has been to retain all that gave the old edition its unique place and to add the results of what seems vital and permanent in later inquiry and research.
