Download or read book Glimpses of Deep Spain written by Ivar Alastair Watson and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2014-09-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrician de la Cruz, Professor of English at Malaga University, writes: ‘The greatest thing about this book is the language itself, the style and ease with which the words flow off the pages. Ivar Watson demonstrates his literary skills by weaving an authentic but yet very entertaining picture of real Spain and real people, blending history and local colour effortlessly with the great skill of the story writer. He manages to penetrate beneath the surface and digs deep into the heart of his characters.’ With its originality of form and its evocation of the real Spain, as opposed to the autobiographical superficiality of so many contemporary accounts, Glimpses of Deep Spain rivals the best books on Spain, from Borrow’s The Bible in Spain to today.

Download or read book Spanish Vistas written by George Parsons Lathrop and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Unless he is extraordinarily cunning," writes the author, "a foreigner can barely resist landing in Spain on vacation." To the casual observer, Spain is a field that is barely recognizable as Italy a few decades ago; however, as the number of tourists increases, so do the attractive features of the people, which gradually fade away; thus, the chapters that retain the true appearance of Spain today have the added value of possible future references. The final page is devoted to the 'Traveler's Guide,' which is beneficial in presenting information not available in standard guidebooks and compressing it in a highly compact style. George Parsons Lathrop was a poet, writer, and newspaper editor from the United States.

Download or read book Shelley s Broken World written by Bysshe Inigo Coffey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shelley's Broken World is a provocative and profound reassessment of Shelley's poetic art and thought. Bysshe Inigo Coffey returns to a peculiarity of Shelley's expressive repertoire first noticed by his Victorian readers and editors: his innovatory use of pauses, which registered as irregularities in ears untuned to his innovations. But his pauses are more than a quirk; various intermittences are at the centre of Shelley's artistry and his thought. This book aims to transform the philosophical, scientific, and aesthetic contexts in which Shelley is positioned. It offers a ground-breaking analysis of his reading, and is the first study to refer to and include images of the unpublished 'Marlow List', a record of the books Shelley left behind him on his departure for Italy in 1818. Shelley's prosody grew to articulate his sense that actuality is experienced as ruptured and fractured with gaps and limit-points. He shows us the weakness of the actual. As we approach the bicentenary of the poet's death, Shelley's Broken World provides an exciting new beginning for the study of a major Romantic poet, the history of materialism, and prosody.

Download or read book On Literature Culture and Religion written by Irving Babbitt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irving Babbitt was a giant of American criticism. His writings from the 1890s to the 1930s helped advance American criticism and scholarship to international esteem. More than seventy years after his death his intellectual staying power remains undiminished. On Literature, Culture, and Religion is an ideal introduction to this seminal American thinker.Babbitt's opinions were uncompromising, and his vocal allies and opponents included almost every name in American literature and scholarship: T. S. Eliot, Edmund Wilson, Paul Elmer More, H. L. Mencken, and Sinclair Lewis. A founder of New Humanism, Babbitt was best known for his indictment of Romanticism and his insistence that the modern age had gone wrong. Babbitt argued for a renewal of humanistic values and standards--which he found best articulated in classical Greece, Hinduism, and Buddhism. The selections cover topics central to Babbitt: criticism, Romanti-cism, classical literature, French literature, education, democracy, and Buddhism. They typify Babbitt's method: recondite allusion, penetrating insight and analysis, impeccable scholarship, and unrelenting pursuit of the furthest ramification and the profoundest implication. The original annotation is retained. Brief introductions to the essays place them in the Babbitt canon.A major introductory essay by George A. Panichas surveys Babbitt's career and critical reception and summarizes the concepts that inform Babbitt's writing. Panichas raises again controversial issues that were not really resolved in Babbitt's time. The essay will challenge those long familiar with Babbitt and New Humanism and those newly introduced thereto.
