A shadow fell upon his face; and, uttering an impatient groan or grunt, and hugging the blanket close around his neck, he swung himself, like a resolute pig, upon his side, and then sent forth a long-drawn sigh. Hapless Adam Buff! Inexorable time, that cruel sandman, goes onward, and Adam sleeps. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men of Character The greater number of these Characters - or, rather, Sketches of Character - originally appeared some sixteen years ago. The incidents of each paper make no pretension to the construction of a complete story: they are rather presented as an endeavour often, too, a hardy, extravagant one - to illustrate certain moral and personal peculiarities of the heroes (heroes of fewest inches!) with little regard to the elaborate working out of the likeness. Indeed, Men of Character are little other than Men of Outlines pen - and - ink flourishes with, possibly, now and then some better trace of human similitude, and now, running into mere grotesque. Thus, job pippins is nothing more than the hero of accident. The plaything, and, finally, the prosperous man of worldly chance. Are there such men 2 Different readers may haply make different answers. With the writer, however, Job is somewhat of a favourite from the circumstance that whatever good spirits may be found in him, the sunshine was not reflected from the actual hour of his pen-and-ink parent.

Download or read book The World as Will and Idea Vol 1 3 written by Arthur Schopenhauer and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 1621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 'The World as Will and Idea' by Arthur Schopenhauer, the author presents his philosophical masterpiece in three volumes, exploring the nature of the world as perceived through the lens of individual will and idea. Schopenhauer's literary style is characterized by its depth and clarity, making complex philosophical concepts accessible to a wide range of readers. Drawing on ideas from Western and Eastern philosophies, he delves into metaphysics, aesthetics, and ethics, offering a comprehensive and profound analysis of human existence. The book is considered a seminal work in the realm of metaphysical philosophy, influencing thinkers such as Nietzsche and Freud. Arthur Schopenhauer, a German philosopher known for his pessimistic views on life and an influence on existential philosophy, wrote 'The World as Will and Idea' as a culmination of his philosophical thought. His deep contemplation on the nature of reality and the human experience is evident in the meticulous arguments presented throughout the volumes. I highly recommend 'The World as Will and Idea' to readers interested in delving into profound philosophical inquiries and exploring the nature of existence. Schopenhauer's work offers a thought-provoking journey into the complexities of the human mind and the world around us, challenging readers to examine their own perceptions and understanding of reality.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Personal Reminiscences of Eminent Men, Vol. 1 of 3 The interest of biography depends, in many cases, and in no light degree, upon facts, many of which may be trivial, but that still display character. Of these, whether numerous or scanty, the writer of a biography must often combine his labours, however heterogeneous such materials may happen to be, and he must work out of them a whole as perfect as they will permit him to do. A work of a similar nature to the present, relat ing incidentally to character as far as the writer might be able to speak personally, may thus not only be interesting, but useful.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Man of Fortune, and Other Tales, Vol. 1 of 3 It is probable that, had the splendid property of Sir Giles Cressingham been entailed, a vast dif ference would have been operated in his character. As a life enjoyment, he would have prized his fortune only as he prized the food that ministered to his hunger, or the garments that preserved him from the cold. But absolute power creates the absolute prince. To dispose of Stoke Paddocks and his other fine estates after his death, had been the grand consideration of his life - the great object of his reveries under the beech-tree and by the fire-side. Had it formed an agreeable object, this would not have signified. But unluckily it was a source of pain and anguish to the narrow minded Sir Giles. In addition to the usual jealousy of his successor, he was disturbed by peculiar misgivings and antipathies in his choice.
