Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Public and Parlor Readings: Prose and Poetry for the Use of Reading Clubs IN my position as teacher of elocution, I have been the recipient of numerous letters from amateur Readers, members of literary clubs, and others, asking me to name some piece appropriate to a given occa sion. Teachers have desired choice readings for school exhibitions. My own public entertainments have been followed by verbal or written requests for copies of selections which ex'cited the interest of hearers. Such appeals were usually for pieces which were not com mon or familiar, and of which I possessed perhaps but a manuscript copy. I was therefore put to the task of transcribing the desired pieces over and over again, or forced to the ungracious duty of denying the very proper requ'est, for want Of time to comply with it. These solicitations were very frequently accompanied by offers of compensation but manifestly no price could be set on what - though costing much time and trouble when so multiplied - was in any individual case a mere courtesy. I was led, therefore, to think that a book made up in the main of selections which had proved entertain ing to public audiences, or literary or social circles, might be acceptable to the public at large.

Download or read book How to Read a Poem and Start a Poetry Circle written by Molly Peacock and published by Riverhead Books (Hardcover). This book was released on 1999 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If poetry is a tantalizing invitation - into the world the poem conjures, the interior life of the poet, our own interior lives - then How to Read a Poem ... and Start a Poetry Circle is a means of accepting that invitation. In gathering a potent group of poems she calls her "talismans" into this slender volume, Molly Peacock presents us with a book of ways to explore the romance we have with words we can't quite hold." "Like a friend, she introduces us to her friends; she shows us how to form poetry circles of our own to share our private pleasures within the rounded borders of a communal reading group. Finally, Peacock provides us with the recommendations of fellow poets with which to begin our own poetry-reading experience - and the rich, enthralling, and endlessly rewarding search for talismans of our own."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book The Birth of New Criticism written by Donald J. Childs and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amid competing claims about who first developed the theories and practices that became known as New Criticism - the critical method that rose alongside Modernism - literary historians have generally given the lion's share of credit to William Empson and I.A. Richards. In The Birth of New Criticism Donald Childs challenges this consensus and provides a new and authoritative narrative of the movement's origins. At the centre stand Robert Graves and Laura Riding, two poet-critics who have been written out of the history of New Criticism. Childs brings to light the long-forgotten early criticism of Graves to detail the ways in which his interpretive methods and ideas evolved into the practice of "close reading," demonstrating that Graves played such a fundamental part in forming both Empson's and Richards's critical thinking that the story of twentieth-century literary criticism must be re-evaluated and re-told. Childs also examines the important influence that Riding's work had on Graves, Empson, and Richards, establishing the importance of this long-neglected thinker and critic. A provocative and cogently argued work, The Birth of New Criticism is both an important intellectual history of the movement and a sharply observed account of the cultural politics of its beginnings and legacy.
