This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Selections From the Symbolical Poems of William Blake Those who believe that Blake's "Prophetic Books," as wholes, are great poems may consider the present volume as a simplified reader for beginners in Blakes symbolism, leading by graduated steps from the more obvious to the more complex aspects of these writings. Those who find the poetry of the "Prophetic Books" confined to isolated passages may regard this edition as an attempt to cull out such passages and arrange them in something roughly approximating an organic whole, as far as the refractory material renders this last step possible. The text is based mainly on Mr. Ellis's 1906 edition, the only complete one now in print; but where the same passages occur in the selections of Mr. Sampson's excellent edition his readings have been adopted, although he has not always been followed in typographical details. Mr. Ellis's numerous editorial emendations in Vala have been discarded; and Blake's own words, as given in Ellis's appendix of the Quaritch edition, have been substituted. We believe with Mr. Ellis that some of his emendations are improvements; but we felt reluctant to place a version so full of editorial alterations before a public that had no chance of comparing these with the original wording. Our text is not offered as a definitive one, but simply as adequate for an introductory work. Mr. Sampson's text, where followed, has been used by the kind permission of Mr. Sampson himself, and of his publishers, the Oxford University Press.

Download or read book Selections from the Poems of Paulinus of Nola including the Correspondence with Ausonius written by Alex Dressler and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-24 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers a broad introduction to one of the most exciting chapters of Late Antiquity through direct testimony from one of the last representatives of Roman Antiquity, Ausonius of Bordeaux, and his radical Christian protégé, the populist bishop and experimental poet Paulinus of Nola. The first comprehensive volume in English dedicated to these works in over a century, this book also offers representative selections from Paulinus’ vast poetic output, from the publicly performed poems that mark his contribution to the emerging cult of the saints to his experimental Christianization of a wide range of Classical genres. Preceded by a substantial introduction discussing the modern significance of these works and their original contexts, the translation is accompanied by running notes for ease of reference and an interpretive commentary rich with illustrative parallels. Taken together, the correspondence with Ausonius and the selections from Paulinus epitomize the personal, political, and spiritual conflicts of their age, offering a lively and concentrated introduction to the life and thought of these two underappreciated contemporaries of Jerome and Augustine. Accompanied by new and provocative interpretations with detailed but concise historical and biographical guidance, this accessible and stylish translation will appeal to scholars and students of Classics, Late Antiquity, religious studies, social history, and world literature.

Download or read book Birth of the Symbol written by Peter T. Struck and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly all of us have studied poetry and been taught to look for the symbolic as well as literal meaning of the text. Is this the way the ancients saw poetry? In Birth of the Symbol, Peter Struck explores the ancient Greek literary critics and theorists who invented the idea of the poetic "symbol." The book notes that Aristotle and his followers did not discuss the use of poetic symbolism. Rather, a different group of Greek thinkers--the allegorists--were the first to develop the notion. Struck extensively revisits the work of the great allegorists, which has been underappreciated. He links their interest in symbolism to the importance of divination and magic in ancient times, and he demonstrates how important symbolism became when they thought about religion and philosophy. "They see the whole of great poetic language as deeply figurative," he writes, "with the potential always, even in the most mundane details, to be freighted with hidden messages." Birth of the Symbol offers a new understanding of the role of poetry in the life of ideas in ancient Greece. Moreover, it demonstrates a connection between the way we understand poetry and the way it was understood by important thinkers in ancient times.

The book gives a poetic interpretation of my personality. And it gives light to those who are in darkness. The purpose of the book is to give encouragement and inspiration to lovers of poetry and the spoken word. Poetry will always be something that takes a special person to really love. Either you enjoy it or you don't. It's just that simple. Poetry is a connection to the heart and soul. A person must dive into the innermost thoughts of the writer or "poet". Instead of just reading the poetry, you must try to feel the emotions that come with it. This book is a reflection of all of my good and bad times.
