Book excerpt: ▶ 영어고전1,241 잭 런던의 켐튼-웨이스 서간집 1903(English Classics1,241 The Kempton-Wace Letters by Jack London)은 19세기 미국작가 잭 런던(Jack London, 1876~1916)과 안나 스트런스키(Anna Strunsky Walling, 1877~1964)가 공동으로 집필한 서간체 소설(epistolary novel)입니다. 두 작가는 19세기 후반 샌프란시스코에서 활동하는 급진적인 문학 그룹이자 사회주의와 문학단체(socialism and the literary group) 더 크라우드(The Crowd)의 회원이란 공통점이 있습니다. ▶ 젊은 과학자 허버트 웨이스(Herbert Wace)와 노년의 시인 데인 캠프턴(Dane Kempton)이 서로 주고받은 편지는 인간의 사랑부터 섹스까지 다양한 철학적 논제를 가식 없이 담고 있습니다. 과학자와 시인, 청년과 중년이란 대비적인 요소가 벌써부터 독자의 흥미를 끄는 설정이 아닐 수 없는데요, 잭 런던이 허버트 웨이스를, 안나 스트런스키가 데인 캠프턴의 편지를 썼고, 잭 런던의 명성에도 불구하고 1903년 출간 당시 익명으로 발표되었습니다. 모험 소설가이자 동물소설가로 명성을 날린 잭 런던이 27세의 청년일 때 발표한 풋풋한 초기 작품에 관심이 있는 독자들에게 추천 드립니다. 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 1,999선과 함께 어제도, 오늘도, 내일도 멋진 문학여행을! ▶ 안나 스트런스키(Anna Strunsky Walling, 1877~1964)는 20세기 미국 샌프란시스코, 캘리포니아, 뉴욕에서 주로 활동한 유대계 미국인으로 더 크라우드(The Crowd)에서 활동한 것을 계기로 잭 런던과 공동작업을 하였습니다. 그들은 1903년 익명으로 영어고전1,241 잭 런던의 켐튼-웨이스 서간집 1903(English Classics1,241 The Kempton-Wace Letters by Jack London)을 발표하였으며, 안나는 잭 런던의 사망한 해에 잭 런던에 관한 회고록(Anna Strunsky Walling-Memoirs of Jack London, 1916)을 발표하였습니다. ▶ Wherefore I marry Hester Stebbins. I am not impelled by the archaic sex madness of the beast, nor by the obsolescent romance madness of later-day man. I contract a tie which my reason tells me is based upon health and sanity and compatibility. My intellect shall delight in that tie. My life shall be free and broad and great, and I will not be the slave to the sense delights which chained my ancient ancestry. I reject the heritage. I break the entail. And who are you to say I am unwise? XXIV. FROM HERBERT WACE TO DANE KEMPTON. ▷ 그러므로 나는 헤스터 스테빈스와 결혼합니다. 나는 짐승의 고대 성적인 광기나 후기 인간의 낡은 로맨스 광기에 감동받지 않습니다. 나는 내 이성이 건강과 온전함, 호환성을 기반으로 한다고 말하는 넥타이를 계약합니다. 내 지성은 그 넥타이를 기뻐할 것입니다. 내 삶은 자유롭고 넓고 위대해질 것이며, 나의 고대 조상을 묶었던 감각적 즐거움의 노예가 되지 않을 것입니다. 나는 유산을 거부합니다. 나는 수반을 깨뜨립니다. 그리고 당신은 누구이기에 내가 현명하지 못하다고 말합니까? 제24장. 허버트 웨이스부터 데인 켐프턴까지. ▶ Your last letter is formal and elaborate, and—equivocal. In it you remind me, menacingly, of the possibilities of progress, you posit that love is at best artificial, and you apotheosise the brain. As an emancipated rationality, you say you cut yourself loose from the convention of feeling. Progress cannot affect the need and the power to love. This I have already stated. "How is it under our control to love or not to love?" Life is elaborate or it is simple (it depends upon the point of view), and you may call love the paraphernalia of its wedding-feast or you may call it more—the Blood and Body of all that quickens, a Transubstantiation which all accept, reverently or irreverently, as the case may be. XXVI. FROM DANE KEMPTON TO HERBERT WACE. ▷ 독자 분께서 보내신 마지막 편지는 형식적이고 정교하며, 분명합니다. 그 편지에서 독자 분은 저에게 진보의 가능성을 위협적으로 상기시키며, 사랑은 기껏해야 인위적인 것이라고 인정하고, 뇌를 신봉합니다. 독자 분은 해방된 이성으로서, 감정의 관습으로부터 스스로를 단절했다고 말합니다. 진보는 사랑의 필요성과 힘에 영향을 미칠 수 없습니다. 이것은 이미 말씀드렸습니다. "사랑하는 것과 하지 않는 것이 어떻게 우리가 통제할 수 있는 것인가?" 삶은 정교하거나 단순합니다. (그것은 관점에 따라 다릅니다.) 사랑을 결혼식 축일의 피와 몸, 즉 모든 사람들이 경건하게 혹은 불경하게 받아들이게 되는 환유증이라고 부를 수 있습니다. 제26장. 데인 켐프턴부터 허버트 웨이스까지. ▶ I have another friend who ruined his life for love, so says the world that you think steeped in the idolatry of love. A priest, who by a few strokes was able to quell in America a strong and bitter movement, a gifted orator, a man of giant powers, and who was won away at the age of forty from his career by a mere girl. The girl planned nothing. She found herself a force in his life almost despite herself. The mere fact that she lived was enough to wrest this Titan from the arms of the Church. He told me that she criticised him with the directness of a simple nature, and that he came to understand her truths better than she herself. I think she must have loved him at first, but she did not go to him when all grew calm. I wish it could have been otherwise, and that she could have brought him a woman's heart. XXXI. FROM DANE KEMPTON TO HERBERT WACE. ▷ 사랑 때문에 인생을 망친 또 다른 친구가 있는데, 사랑이라는 우상숭배에 빠져 있다고 생각하는 세상이 이렇게 말합니다. 몇 번의 뇌졸중으로 미국에서 강력하고 격렬한 운동을 진압할 수 있었던 신부, 재능 있는 연설가, 거대한 권력을 가진 사람, 그리고 단순한 소녀에 의해 40세에 그의 경력에서 쫓겨난 사람. 그 소녀는 아무것도 계획하지 않았습니다. 그녀는 거의 자신에도 불구하고 그의 삶에서 힘을 얻었습니다. 그녀가 살았다는 단순한 사실만으로도 이 타이탄을 교회의 품에서 떼어낼 수 있었습니다. 그는 그녀가 단순한 성격으로 자신을 비판했고, 그녀 자신보다 그녀의 진실을 더 잘 이해하게 되었다고 말했습니다. 내 생각엔 그녀가 처음에는 그를 사랑했음에 틀림없다고 생각합니다. 그러나 그녀는 모두가 조용해졌을 때 그에게 가지 않았습니다. 그렇지 않았더라면 좋았을 텐데, 그녀가 그에게 여자의 마음을 가져다 줄 수 있었더라면 좋았을 텐데요. 제31장. 데인 켐프턴부터 허버트 웨이스까지. ▶ 프롤로그(Prologue). 테마여행신문 TTN Korea 영어고전(English Classics) 1,999선을 읽어야 하는 7가지 이유 ▶ 15가지 키워드로 읽는 잭 런던(Jack London, 1876~1916) 01. 미국 종군기자(War Correspondent) 출신 소설가 02. 미다스의 노예들(The Minions of Midas, 1901) 03. 야생의 부름(The Call of the Wild, 1903) 04. 바다 늑대(The Sea-Wolf, 1904) 05. 흰 송곳니, 화이트 팽(White Fang, 1906) 06. 스테이크 한 장(A Piece of Steak, 1909) 07. 존 발리콘(John Barleycorn, 1913) : 분홍 코끼리를 보다(Seeing Pink Elephants) 08. 섬의 제리(Jerry of the Islands: A True Dog Story, 1917) 09. 공상과학소설(Science Fiction) 10. 잭 런던 르뽀 - 조선사람 엿보기(La Corée en feu - Jack London reports, 1982) 11. 美 우정국 위대한 미국인 기념 우표 시리즈(Great Americans Series Postage Stamp, 1986) 12. 잭 런던을 만나다 TOP10(TOP10 Places of Jack London) 13. 잭 런던 원작의 영화·드라마(Movie and Drama of Jack London in IMDb and Wikipedia) 14. 오디오북으로 듣는 잭 런던(Audio Books of Jack London) 15. 잭 런던의 어록 309선(309 Quotes of Jack London) ▶ 영어고전1,241 잭 런던의 켐튼-웨이스 서간집 1903(English Classics1,241 The Kempton-Wace Letters by Jack London) I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterpiece of linguistics scholarship, at once erudite and entertaining, confronts the thorny question of how—and whether—culture shapes language and language, culture Linguistics has long shied away from claiming any link between a language and the culture of its speakers: too much simplistic (even bigoted) chatter about the romance of Italian and the goose-stepping orderliness of German has made serious thinkers wary of the entire subject. But now, acclaimed linguist Guy Deutscher has dared to reopen the issue. Can culture influence language—and vice versa? Can different languages lead their speakers to different thoughts? Could our experience of the world depend on whether our language has a word for "blue"? Challenging the consensus that the fundaments of language are hard-wired in our genes and thus universal, Deutscher argues that the answer to all these questions is—yes. In thrilling fashion, he takes us from Homer to Darwin, from Yale to the Amazon, from how to name the rainbow to why Russian water—a "she"—becomes a "he" once you dip a tea bag into her, demonstrating that language does in fact reflect culture in ways that are anything but trivial. Audacious, delightful, and field-changing, Through the Language Glass is a classic of intellectual discovery.

Download or read book When Scotland Was Jewish written by Elizabeth Caldwell Hirschman and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popular image of Scotland is dominated by widely recognized elements of Celtic culture. But a significant non-Celtic influence on Scotland's history has been largely ignored for centuries? This book argues that much of Scotland's history and culture from 1100 forward is Jewish. The authors provide evidence that many of the national heroes, villains, rulers, nobles, traders, merchants, bishops, guild members, burgesses, and ministers of Scotland were of Jewish descent, their ancestors originating in France and Spain. Much of the traditional historical account of Scotland, it is proposed, rests on fundamental interpretive errors, perpetuated in order to affirm Scotland's identity as a Celtic, Christian society. A more accurate and profound understanding of Scottish history has thus been buried. The authors' wide-ranging research includes examination of census records, archaeological artifacts, castle carvings, cemetery inscriptions, religious seals, coinage, burgess and guild member rolls, noble genealogies, family crests, portraiture, and geographic place names.

Download or read book The Kempton Wace Letters Annotated written by Jack Jack London and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kempton-Wace Letters was a 1903 epistolary novel written jointly by Americans Jack London and Anna Strunsky, then based in San Francisco, California. It was published anonymously. The novel presents a discussion of the philosophy of love and sex, written in the form of a series of letters between two men, "Herbert Wace," a young scientist, and "Dane Kempton," an elderly poet. Writer Jack London wrote "Wace's" letters, and Anna Strunsky wrote "Kempton's." In the late 19th century, the authors were part of a San Francisco radical literary group known as "The Crowd." Kempton makes the case for feeling and emotion, while Wace proceeds "scientifically" and analyzes love in Darwinian terms: "I purpose to order my affairs in a rational manner....Wherefore I marry Hester Stebbins. I am not impelled by the archaic sex madness of the beast, nor by the obsolescent romance madness of later-day man. I contract a tie which reason tells me is based upon health and sanity and compatibility. My intellect shall delight in that tie." Initially the public was piqued by the anonymity of the writers and the book was moderately successful. London biographer Russ Kingman praised the book; he quoted the Buffalo Commercial as admiring the "sheer charm of its prose" and saying the book "holds firmly its place in the front rank of the best of the season's publications."

Download or read book The Kempton Wace Letters written by Jack London and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kempton-Wace Letters was a 1903 epistolary novel written jointly by Americans Jack London and Anna Strunsky, then based in San Francisco, California. It was published anonymously. The novel presents a discussion of the philosophy of love and sex, written in the form of a series of letters between two men, "Herbert Wace," a young scientist, and "Dane Kempton," an elderly poet. Writer Jack London wrote "Wace's" letters, and Anna Strunsky wrote "Kempton's." In the late 19th century, the authors were part of a San Francisco radical literary group known as "The Crowd." Kempton makes the case for feeling and emotion, while Wace proceeds "scientifically" and analyzes love in Darwinian terms: "I purpose to order my affairs in a rational manner....Wherefore I marry Hester Stebbins. I am not impelled by the archaic sex madness of the beast, nor by the obsolescent romance madness of later-day man. I contract a tie which reason tells me is based upon health and sanity and compatibility. My intellect shall delight in that tie."

Download or read book The Spectacle of Disintegration written by McKenzie Wark and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following his acclaimed history of the Situationist International up until the late sixties, The Beach Beneath the Street, McKenzie Wark returns with a companion volume which puts the late work of the Situationists in a broader and deeper context, charting their contemporary relevance and their deep critique of modernity. Wark builds on their work to map the historical stages of the society of the spectacle, from the diffuse to the integrated to what he calls the disintegrating spectacle. The Spectacle of Disintegration takes the reader through the critique of political aesthetics of former Situationist T.J. Clark, the Fourierist utopia of Raoul Vaneigem, René Vienet’s earthy situationist cinema, Gianfranco Sangunetti’s pranking of the Italian ruling class, Alice-Becker Ho’s account of the anonymous language of the Romany, Guy Debord’s late films and his surprising work as a game designer. At once an extraordinary counter history of radical praxis and a call to arms in the age of financial crisis and the resurgence of the streets, The Spectacle of Disintegration recalls the hidden journeys taken in the attempt to leave the twentieth century, and plots an exit from the twenty first. The dustjacket unfolds to reveal a fold-out poster of the collaborative graphic essay combining text selected by McKenzie Wark with composition and drawings by Kevin C. Pyle.
