Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Wentworth Higginson, the Story of His Life The preparation of a volume which should tell briefly and simply the story of Colonel Higginson's life, and as nearly as possible in his own words, has involved examining and sifting a great mass of manuscripts. Happily he shared with his contem poraries a reluctance, not felt by the present gener ation, to destroy letters, journals, or memoranda. To those who have assisted my difficult task by the loan of letters and the contribution of personal memories, cordial thanks are due; and no less to the unknown friends who have written to signify their interest and say Godspeed. Let me also express warm gratitude to those literary friends of Colonel Higginson whose sympathy, advice, and criticism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters and Journals of Thomas Wentworth Higginson, 1846-1906 It is a bewildering and fascinating thing to read old letters; they are so full of vitality that one can scarcely bear it. I feel this strangely in turning over my army papers; they seem to belong to some one twin-born with me, but who led a wholly different life from me, with whom I have now no communion save' in the dim throbbing of the same nerves which that touches.

Download or read book Thomas Wentworth Higginson Classic Reprint written by Edwin Doak Mead and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Wentworth Higginson The scene of A Moonglade, the clos ing sketch in the little volume, The Pro cession of the Flowers, is laid at New port. The other essays in that charming collection were written at Worcester, and Lake Quinsigamond gets into most of them. Their very titles, April Days, My Outdoor Study, Water Lilies, 'the Life of Birds - show that they properly belong among the Outdoor Papers; and in the volume so entitled they finally found place. This volume is the best expression of Colonel Higgin son as an outdoor man; for, like Lowell, he was always emphatically that, a man of the fields and woods as much as a man of the library. He was the most red blooded and rural of scholars, loving birds quite as well as books, and carry ing into the garden and on to the hills the instinct and talent of the naturalist as truly as the love and sympathy of the poet. He was as much at home presiding at a meeting of the Appalachian Moun tain Club or the Massachusetts Bicycle Club as 'n reading a paper before the historic-genealogical Society.

Download or read book White Heat written by Brenda Wineapple and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White Heat is the first book to portray the remarkable relationship between America's most beloved poet and the fiery abolitionist who first brought her work to the public. As the Civil War raged, an unlikely friendship was born between the reclusive poet Emily Dickinson and Thomas Wentworth Higginson, a literary figure who ran guns to Kansas and commanded the first Union regiment of black soldiers. When Dickinson sent Higginson four of her poems he realized he had encountered a wholly original genius; their intense correspondence continued for the next quarter century. In White Heat Brenda Wineapple tells an extraordinary story about poetry, politics, and love, one that sheds new light on her subjects and on the roiling America they shared.

Download or read book A Summer of Hummingbirds written by Christopher Benfey and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-04-17 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The country's most noted writers, poets, and artists converge at a singular moment in American life, a great companion to fans of the film A Quiet Passion, starring Cynthia Nixon as Emily Dickinson. At the close of the Civil War, the lives of Emily Dickinson, Mark Twain, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Martin Johnson Heade intersected in an intricate map of friendship, family, and romance that marked a milestone in the development of American art and literature. Using the image of a flitting hummingbird as a metaphor for the gossamer strands that connect these larger-than-life personalities, Christopher Benfey re-creates the summer of 1882, the summer when Mabel Louise Todd-the protégé to the painter Heade-confesses her love for Emily Dickinson's brother, Austin, and the players suddenly find themselves caught in the crossfire between the Calvinist world of decorum, restraint, and judgment and a new, unconventional world in which nature prevails and freedom is all.
