Download or read book Critical Essays on Edmund Spenser written by Mihoko Suzuki and published by Macmillan Reference USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aldous Huxley (1894-1963) was one of the most widely read philosophical novelists and essayists of the mid-20th century. His works - such as Brave New World, Antic Hay, and Point Counter Point - became household names during a historical period hardly known for its celebration of intellectual prowess. Huxley was one of the great comic writers of modern British letters, although his dystopian novel Brave New World suggests his vision was often as dark as it was antic. This study provides selections of many important essays published after 1977 in journals the world over.

Download or read book Spenser s Famous Flight written by Patrick Cheney and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1993-12-15 with total page 603 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Spenser's famous Flight, Patrick Cheney challenges the received wisdom about the shape and goal of Spenser's literary career. He contends that Spenser's idea of a literary career is not strictly the convential Virgilian pattern of pastoral to epic, but a Christian revision of that pattern in light of Petrarch and the Reformation. Cheney demonstrates that, far from changing his mind about his career as a result of disillusionment, Spenser embarks upon and completes a daring progress that secures his status as an Orphic poet. In October, Spenser calls his idea of a literary career the 'famous flight.' Both classical and Christian culture has authorized the myth of the winged poet as a primary myth of fame and glory. Cheney shows that throughout his poetry Spenser relies on an image of flight to accomplish his highest goal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The myth of Sisyphus symbolizes the archetypal process of becoming without the consolation of absolute achievement. It is both a poignant reflection of the human condition and a prominent framing text for classical, medieval, and renaissance theories of human perfectibility. In this unique reading of the myth through classical philosophies, pagan and Christian religious doctrines, and medieval and renaissance literature, we see Sisyphus, "the most cunning of human beings," attempting to transcend his imperfections empowered by his imagination to renew his faith in the infinite potentialities of human excellence."--BOOK JACKET
