Download or read book Diverse Converse and in Verse written by William Birmingham and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During his teaching ministry Jesus told several stories, often witty, which drew upon the circumstances and situations of his day. He used this method of teaching as a means of making a point, whether favourable or harsh, that his hearers would understand and recognise in their application to them. This book adapts, updates, and converts into whimsical verse a number of these stories, while also raising some new issues for today’s generation. It is not intended to be a substitute for reading the Gospels and other New Testament books, but is intended to direct and encourage readers to look and think more deeply into Jesus’ original words as recorded in Scripture and how they might apply to them.

Poetry is personal speech on universal experience, and in this selection of poems the individual approach to the sacred is emphasized over any adherence to orthodoxy or doctrine. In this anthology, spiritual traditions of East and West are filtered through the personal vision of sixteen contemporary Canadian poets. These poets are joined together not by faith and similar belief, but in each following their own path to truth. Their poems and stories and editor Sussan McCaslin's insightful introduction illuminated fundamental themes of spiritual life that resonated in each of us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to give an outline of structural features of Chaucer's poetic syntax that are relevant to the study of style, and to define some general tendencies in his construction of sentences. What emerges is a fondness on Chaucer's part for discontinuity in the order of words and phrases and for certain forms of expression which have a wider application t: han their modern counterparts. In order that Chaucer's usage may be seen in its historical context, comparative material is drawn from the writings of his contemporaries - Langland, Gower, and the Gawain-poet - and from the body of early English rhyming romances now taken to represent an influent: ial native poetic tradition. I In an introductory chapter Dr Roscow questions the familiar description of Chaucer's syntax as colloquial, and argues for attention to a wider range of literary functions in studying the relationship between syntax and style in nedieval poetry
