Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harper's New Monthly Magazine, 1862, Vol. 25 As I struck into the trail and out into the broad valley of the Salinas a sense of freedom relieved me in some degree of the gloom inspired by the last words of this strangely unfortunate man. The stars were shining brightly overhead, but the moon had gone down some time previously. It was just light enough to see the way. A small white object lying in the trail caused the mule to start. In the excitement of my escape I had forgotten about the papers. Here they were, all safe. I had no doubt they had been thus disposed of by the ruffian Jack, during the previous evening when he took occasion to absent himself from the camp. I quickly dismounted and placed the package securely in the leg of one of my boots, then pushed on with all speed to reach a turning-point of the mountains some distance ahead, in order to be out of sight by the dawn of day, which could not be far off. In about an hour I had gained this point, and at the same time the first faint streaks of the coming day began to appear in the eastern sky. The air was peculiarly balmy - cool enough to be pleasant, and deliciously odorous with the herbage of the mountains. Already the deer began to leave their coverts among the shrubbery on the hill-sides, and numerous bands of them stood gazing at me as I passed, their antlers erect, their beautiful forms motionless, as if hewn from the solid rock, but manifesting more curiosity than fear. Thousands of rabbits frisked about in the open glades, and innumerable flocks of quail flitted from bush to bush. The field-larks and doves made the air musical with their joyous hymns of praise to the rising sun; the busy hum of bees rose among the wild flowers by the way-side; all nature seemed to awake from its repose smiling with a celestial joy. In no other country upon earth have I seen such mornings as in the interior of California so clear, bright, and sparkling - so rich and glowing in atmospheric tints - so teeming with unbounded opulence in all that gives vigor, health, and beauty to animated nature, and inspiration to the higher faculties of man. There is a redundancy of richness in the earth, air, and light unknown even in that land of fascination which is said to possess "the fatal gift of beauty."

The strange old fashioned buildings; the castle, the palace on the hill-top, the shipping at the wharves, the gar den's on every slope, the varied outlines of the neighboring cliffs and hills, covered with groves and green slopes of rich sward; every nook glimmering with beautiful villas; the whole re flected in the glowing waters that sweep through the' maze of islands and headlands in every di rection; can there be any thing more beautiful in all the world?

Book The Routledge Companion to American Literary Journalism

Download or read book The Routledge Companion to American Literary Journalism written by William E. Dow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking a thematic approach, this new companion provides an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural, and international study of American literary journalism. From the work of Frederick Douglass and Walt Whitman to that of Joan Didion and Dorothy Parker, literary journalism is a genre that both reveals and shapes American history and identity. This volume not only calls attention to literary journalism as a distinctive genre but also provides a critical foundation for future scholarship. It brings together cutting-edge research from literary journalism scholars, examining historical perspectives; themes, venues, and genres across time; theoretical approaches and disciplinary intersections; and new directions for scholarly inquiry. Provoking reconsideration and inquiry, while providing new historical interpretations, this companion recognizes, interacts with, and honors the tradition and legacies of American literary journalism scholarship. Engaging the work of disciplines such as sociology, anthropology, African American studies, gender studies, visual studies, media studies, and American studies, in addition to journalism and literary studies, this book is perfect for students and scholars of those disciplines.

This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal, 1828, Vol. 22: Part 1. Original Papers Drudgery of wooing, and endure the vicissitudes of even the most. Successful suit - no, better to live on loveless and unloved, with no' mistress but the poetical idol of my fancy; with no wife but the. Epicene of my conjugal Utopia. And yet, there were moments when I found my waking dreams disturbed by an instinctive wish to have some gentle being to dream with me; or to whom, without putting the world in my confidence, through the medium of pen, ink, and paper, I could communicate my thoughts. I was haunted too by the eternal presence of a donncusc, or easy-chair, that stood vacant opposite to my own, and which my upholsterer insisted upon sending, as what he called a pendant (for all the fashionable tradesmen speak French now) to that delicious reposoir which seemed to stretch out its arms to receive me. Besides, my sedentary habits and full living had brought on occasional derangements of health, which frequently assumed a serious aspect, from my neglecting the first symptoms, merely to avoid the trouble of writing for my apothecary, and thus rendered a vigilant and kind gousemante a great desideratum. But I am a moral man; for morality, like honesty, is not only the best policy, but it is also the least troublesome; and yet the idea of a wife terrified me. The very sight of her rufl's and muffs, and things, breaking up the uniformity of my furniture, would, I was well aware, prove a source of extreme annoyance. Besides, since the days of the sleeping beauty in the wood, with whose charms and suspended animation I had been deeply enamoured in my boyhood, I had read and heard of nothing on which to model my ideas of a wife. A silent sympathy, a sort of love in idleness, was the outline of my conjugal speculations, with occasional exhibitions of vigilance and utility, intel ligence, and tenderness such as woman only can bestow upon man in his hours of pain and care. A coquette would have tortured me to madness; a hustler would have worn me to an atrophy and a world ling, a blue-stocking. Or a politician, would have killed me in a week. But what are the devices or speculations or opinions of man where woman is concerned? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
