Book The Original Knickerbocker

Download or read book The Original Knickerbocker written by Andrew Burstein and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Washington Irving-author, ambassador, Manhattanite, and international celebrity-has largely slipped from America's memory, and yet, his creations are still very well known. With a historian's eye for scope and significance, Andrew Burstein returns Irving to the context of his native nineteenth century where he was a major celebrity-both a colorful comic genius and the first name in our national literature. Though he gave his young nation such enduring tales as “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “Rip Van Winkle,” he was far more than one of our nation's most outsized literary talents. Irving was an American original and a citizen of the world.

  • Author : Washington Irving
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2008-12-30
  • ISBN : 9780143105619
  • Pages : 404 pages

Download or read book A History of New York written by Washington Irving and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-12-30 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1809, New Yorkers were buzzing about a series of classified ads concerning the whereabouts of Dutch historian Diedrich Knickerbocker. They were unaware that Washington Irving had invented the man entirely and placed the ads himself. Knickerbocker's purported manuscript, A History of New York, was Irving's own. Told from Knickerbocker's point of view, A History of New York is a chronicle of New York's fifty years under Dutch rule in the 1600s that plays fast and loose with the facts, to uproarious effect. The book propelled Irving to the heights of literary stardom. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

This book was released on 2024-01-07 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Washington Irving's 'A History of New York: From the Beginning of the World to the End of the Dutch Dynasty' is a satirical account of the history of New York City. Written in a humorous and entertaining style, this book blends fact with fiction, providing readers with a unique perspective on the city's past. The narrative is filled with Irving's witty observations and tongue-in-cheek commentary, making it a delightful read for those interested in both history and comedy. Set during the Dutch colonial period, the book offers a satirical take on the events and characters that shaped New York's early history. Washington Irving, known for his contributions to American literature, was inspired to write 'A History of New York' as a parody of turgid historical accounts. Through his clever storytelling and imaginative reimagining of historical events, Irving creates a captivating and humorous narrative that continues to entertain readers to this day. I highly recommend 'A History of New York' to anyone looking for a fresh and entertaining perspective on the history of New York City. Washington Irving's wit and literary skill make this book a timeless classic that is sure to delight readers of all ages.
