Book excerpt: Excerpt from Quest and Vision: Essays in Life and Literature Art And Truth. The weary years, the summer's gold, Man's feverish joy and pain, Pass like a dream, and all grows old: Tell me, what things remain? Two names alone, and Truth is one: A face inscrutable, With lips that neither laugh nor moan, Yet all things have to tell. And Art the other: at the gate Of her old Paradise, Whoe'er shall come, or soon or late, She opens to the wise. We fade and pass: we fret our days In barren love and strife; But happier he who only prays Beneath the Tree of Life.

Download or read book Quest and Vision written by W. J. Dawson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-12-05 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a valuable series of papers in their vigor of thought and grace of diction. The author has written on Shelley, Wordsworth, Longfellow, George Eliot, and George Meredith, besides essays on "Religious Doubt and Modern Poetry" and "The Poetry of Despair." The latter paper has more particular reference to the work of Matthew Arnold and James Thomson. All that Mr. Dawson writes is popular on this side of the Atlantic. In the present case his essays are alike simulative to thought and provocative of relish for the higher literature. -The Methodist Review, Vol. 75 [1893] We noticed the first edition of these essays when they appeared in 1886 and are glad to welcome this revised and enlarged edition. Mr. Dawson's mastery of phrase and his range of illustration add much to the charm of his critiques. The added studies of George Meredith and of the New Realism show the same power of entering into a writer's meaning and getting to the heart of his work as the earlier essays. George Meredith's keen but cruel satire is vividly brought out. "If it were possible to light up a human body from the inside, so that it should become transparent to us, like a glass beehive, in which we see every movement of busy wing or tentacle, so that in like manner we might discern every little beating nerve of man, every throb and palpitation of remotest vein and artery, it would be an apt figure of how Meredith treats the souls of men." The New Realism gives four brief but sympathetic and luminous studies of Olive Schreiner, Mark Rutherford, Rudyard Kipling, and J. M. Barry, which will tempt many readers to a closer knowledge of their works. -London Quarterly and Holborn Review, Vol. 79 [1893]

Download or read book The Telescope in the Parlor written by James McConkey and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Elegant and deeply personal, McConkey's essays reveal a seasoned mind and a soulful spirit."--Publishers Weekly "Like his colleagues Forster and Chekhov, James McConkey combines a sharp eye, a nimble mind and a bottomless generosity. In The Telescope in the Parlor, as in all his fine and intimate essays, he is concerned with the very deepest subjects: time, memory, and what it means to be human. May this new addition to his 'Court of Memory' remind readers how vital and necessary a writer he is."--Stewart O'Nan, author of A Prayer for the Dying In this collection of essays, James McConkey--novelist, professor, and memoirist--writes about the authors and experiences that have meant the most to him. In "Three Autobiographical Essays" and "A Story for a Child," McConkey poignantly recalls events of courting and family life that remain as clear in his inner vision as the day they took place. In "Eight Essays about Literature," he explains why he loves the books he loves and why he responds to the work of A. R. Ammons, Anton Chekhov, and E. M. Forster, among others. With an even greater power than the telescope standing in the corner of his study, McConkey's inner eye observes telling scenes of memory and imagination, which through the magic of his writing become vibrant images in the reader's own imagination. In the title essay, McConkey recalls the vivid moment that led him to become a chronicler of his own experiences, when he "attempt[ed] to connect the normal details of daily living to a unity...apprehended only for an instant, and which consciousness itself has since kept from [his] reach." Watching McConkey make these connections is but one of the delights this book provides. "James McConkey uses his own memory as a tool that unlocks everything--a telescope with a view of the entire universe. I can't think of another writer who uses that tool with as much precision, delicacy, and love."--Anne Fadiman, author of Ex Libris "McConkey makes of his own life...a thoughtful, powerful and vivid work of art."--Annie Dillard "James McConkey speaks to the reader with poignant force, illuminating ordinary life...There is no voice like his alive today."--May Sarton "The genre in which McConkey does his best writing has no name. He invented it...What McConkey does is to create meaning out of ordinary life...he'll create what is not exactly a story but a pattern in time...His books should be famous."--Noel Perrin, USA Today James McConkey is the author of Crossroads, The Tree House Confessions, The Novels of E. M. Forster, and Court of Memory (a continuing biography that appeared serially in various magazines, primarily The New Yorker), and many other books. He is Goldwin Smith Professor of English Literature Emeritus at Cornell University.
