Book A Time of Gifts

  • Author : Patrick Leigh Fermor
  • Publisher : New York Review of Books
  • Release : 2011-09-14
  • ISBN : 1590175174
  • Pages : 340 pages

Download or read book A Time of Gifts written by Patrick Leigh Fermor and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-09-14 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beloved account about an intrepid young Englishman on the first leg of his walk from London to Constantinople is simply one of the best works of travel literature ever written. At the age of eighteen, Patrick Leigh Fermor set off from the heart of London on an epic journey—to walk to Constantinople. A Time of Gifts is the rich account of his adventures as far as Hungary, after which Between the Woods and the Water continues the story to the Iron Gates that divide the Carpathian and Balkan mountains. Acclaimed for its sweep and intelligence, Leigh Fermor’s book explores a remarkable moment in time. Hitler has just come to power but war is still ahead, as he walks through a Europe soon to be forever changed—through the Lowlands to Mitteleuropa, to Teutonic and Slav heartlands, through the baroque remains of the Holy Roman Empire; up the Rhine, and down to the Danube. At once a memoir of coming-of-age, an account of a journey, and a dazzling exposition of the English language, A Time of Gifts is also a portrait of a continent already showing ominous signs of the holocaust to come.

Book Journey through Landscape in Seventeenth Century Holland  The Haarlem Print Series and Dutch Identity

Download or read book Journey through Landscape in Seventeenth Century Holland The Haarlem Print Series and Dutch Identity written by and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sets of landscape etchings produced in the second decade of the seventeenth century by Claes Jansz. Visscher, Esaias van den Velde, Willem Buytewech, and Jan van de Velde drew on and contributed to a print culture that played a key role in defining "Dutch" landscape. Examination of these printed landscape series as part of a wide-ranging print culture underscores the consistent interrelationship of landscape, history, and politics. To varying degrees, the contemporaneous descriptive geographies, histories, allegorical tableaux, didactic prints, and poetic anthologies considered in this study provide parallels for the prints' serial structure, journey theme, and commemorative motifs. Moreover, as part of a wider enterprise of Dutch self-definition, they provide cultural guidelines for the interpretation of landscape in prints and paintings. Levesque's study of the Dutch seventeenth-century experience of place is two-tiered. She addresses the journey through landscape as an interpretive framework, the spatial structure of knowledge, the benefits of travel from the point of view of humanists, and the growth of a Dutch national self-consciousness expressed through landscape. She also provides a close reading of the structure and motifs in the print series of Claes Jansz. Visscher, Esaias van den Velde, Willem Buytewech, and Jan van de Velde.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Journey Through Old Holland Sat reading for A long time IN old PA pers, books and ships' logs. A friend of mine had dropped in, and we had fallen into a discussion over a certain Dutchman, named Ian Maertensz., mentioned as one of the first inhabitants of the small settlement of New Amsterdam the little colony well known in the xviith century as the alternating and contested possession of two sea-faring nations, and in our time better known as the small beginning from which the large and remarkable metropolis of New - York has grown - whether this Dutchman could have re turned to the land of his forefathers, or whether he had possibly ended his days roaming the seas as merchant and skipper. IX}, For the chronicles state with' certainty the following facts When the English for the first time laid hands on the settlement, Ian Maertensz. At once abandoned both an assured living as well as those possessions he had won by dogged labour, and took ship, preferring a difficult existence in freedom to a peaceful one under foreign rulers. In his youth he had thought that his fortune'was to be found on or across the Sea. The endless rolling sea, where white sails rode in the distance, where mysterious voices spoke and laughed aloud in the wave romping of the thudding, splashing breakers on the Dutch coast the sea had aroused in him the desire to seek adventure across that wonderful waste. Nothing new, indeed, in his countrymen. Had not they always been the sons of the deep? Says not One of the songs of the Beggars of the Sea, the lays of those poor expelled men who valiantly fought for the freedom of our soil: Through the wild waves they went, Like lions through the wood. El}, Has not Holland seen its glory dawn on the seas? Has not the sea brought Holland whatever treasures were discovered and carried home from distant climes, in small ships, amid constant dangers? Have not her sons more than those of any other land understood the sea, and how to find tracks on its great spaces, and how from wood and sail-cloth, with ingenuity and stubborn endeavour, to build up the beautiful works of art which their small Ships were, with their high stems and graceful rigging and sails? Were they not, from their youth, cradled in the lap of the waves, as our great xviith century poet, vondel, once sang? No wonder then that Ian Maertensz. Could not resist the call of the sea. A daring seaman the old chronicles called him. B}, Twilight had for an hour been shrouding all visible outlines in my room in grey shadow, when my friend left v iaiqyy n; 0 T if P f.
