Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critic and the Drama The imprisoning Of it in a tangible dream. Criticism is the dream book. All art is a kind of subconscious madness expressed in terms of sanity; criticism is essential to the interpretation of its mysteries, for about everything truly beautiful there is ever some thing mysterious and disconcerting. Beauty is not always immediately recognizable as beauty; what Often passes for beauty is mere infatuation; living beauty is like a love that has outlasted the middle-years of life, and has met triumphantly the test Of time, and faith, and cynic meditation. For beauty is a sleep walker in the endless corridors Of the wakeful world, uncertain, groping, and not a little.

Book excerpt: "This is a mystery with Gaillac flavor to be savored" --Mystery Scene Magazine "A finely crafted and surprising mystery" --Kirkus Reviews The body of Gil Petty, America's most celebrated wine critic, is found strung up in a French Gaillac vineyard, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Divine Bottle and pickled in wine. For forensic expert Enzo Macleod, the key to this unsolved murder lies in decoding Petty's mysterious reviews, which could make or break a vineyard's reputation. As he digs deeper for the motivation behind the shocking crime, Macleod finds that beneath the tranquil façade of French viticulture lurks a back-stabbing community characterized by a deadly rivalry--and home to someone who is ready to stop him even if they have to kill again to stop the investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Critic in the Occident: Illustrated From Photographs My most vivid impression of Naples, after nine days' stay, was that of a city of stucco and stone. Most of the buildings are of yellow stucco that mellows with age; the streets and sidewalks are of a hard, dark stone that wears smooth with long use. In the densely populated streets huge buildings rise for six or seven stories and leaving nothing but a narrow slit of blue sky between them; massive stone walls brace up the sides of the hills, and many nar row stone steps lead up the steep hillside. Looking down upon the city from the suppressed Carthusian monastery of San Martino, these streets appear like deep clefts in solid lines of masonry.

Again and again he returns to the Indian: We talk Of civilizing the Indian, but that is not the name for his im provement. By the wary independence and aloofness of his dim forest life he preserves his intercourse with his native gods, and is admitted from time to time to a rare and peculiar society with Nature. He has glances of starry recognition, to which our saloons are strangers. The steady illumination of his genius, dim only because distant, is like the faint but satisfying light of the stars compared with the dazzling but ineffectual and short-lived blaze of candles. We would not always be soothing and taming nature, breaking the horse and the ox, but sometimes ride the horse wild, and chase the buffalo. The only relics that interest him are Indian relics. One of his regular Spring recreations or occupations is the hunting of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Testament and the Critics The object of the author in preparing this little volume and taking the liberty of in truding it upon the public. Is not the estab lishment Of the divine authority of the Old Testament. The awful claim of being a communication from God to our race, he believes should be acknowledged only up on evidence the most unimpeachable. Yet the author most fully accepts this claim. The evidence on which it rests seems to him so ample, so overwhelming and so limitless, the thought of adequately presenting it, were he able to do so, brings the feeling of weari ness and discouragement. For more than thirty centuries the Old Testament, like some sacred fountain, has been issuing streams of healing, of hope and gladness, and every year the evidence of its divine origin has been accumulating.

Book De Quincey as Literary Critic  Classic Reprint

Download or read book De Quincey as Literary Critic Classic Reprint written by J. H. Fowler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from De Quincey as Literary Critic Extracts - a pitiable method! Young people have time to read long books and the imagination to seize all'the great things.' In these words the great Napoleon justly condemned the practice of making 'snibrets' of literature the staple of education. But the criticism is often carried farther, and With less reason. We have all heard anthologies condemned again and again as superficial things. Everybody, it is said, ought to make his own anthology. An admirable counsel of perfection, which becomes every year less and less possible of fulfilment as year by year the printing presses of all the nations increase indefinitely the vast piles of books already existing in the world. Even so genuine a lover of literature as Sir Arthur quiller-couch has lately expressed some gratitude to those who burnt the great library at Alexandria and destroyed an immense amount of the accumulated rubbish of the ancient world. The real charge against them, he says, is not that they burnt, but only that they burnt indiscriminately. In other words, he does not blame them for making an anthology, or even for making it violently, but only for making it badly.
