Download or read book A Dream Within a Dream written by Edgar Allan Poe and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2020-10-05 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An example of Poe’s melancholic and morbid poetic pieces, "A Dream Within a Dream" is a poem that pitifully mourns the passing of time. The poet’s own life, teeming with depression, alcoholism, and misery, cannot but exemplify the subject matter and tone of the poem. The constant dilution of reality and fantasy is detrimental to the poetic speaker’s ability to hold reality in his hands. The quiet contemplation of the speaker is contrasted with thunderous passing of time that waits for no man. Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American poet, author, and literary critic. Most famous for his poetry, short stories, and tales of the supernatural, mysterious, and macabre, he is also regarded as the inventor of the detective genre and a contributor to the emergence of science fiction, dark romanticism, and weird fiction. His most famous works include "The Raven" (1945), "The Black Cat" (1943), and "The Gold-Bug" (1843).

This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Regensburg (Institut für Anglistik und Amerikanistik), course: Seminar, language: English, abstract: In the following paper it will be analyzed which hints and possible evidences are in the text "The Fall of the House of Usher" that prove or indicate that the protagonist is in fact in the middle of a vivid dream or moreover in a nightmare. For that purpose it will be helpful to look at how people dream at the first place and examine which elements a dream typically contains out of a psychological and medical point of view. With this approach it will be easy to compare the findings afterward to the experiences of the first-person narrator. By doing so it should be possible to see if the protagonist of the text is wide awake when he visits his friend Usher or if the last verses of Poe's “A Dream within a Dream” which say: "Is all that we see or seem / But a dream within a dream?" are suitable for the short story "The Fall of the House of Usher", too.

Download or read book The Raven written by Lou Reed and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legendary musician’s distinctive artistic take on Edgar Allan Poe includes “some of the most personal lyrics of his career” (Rolling Stone). One of the most influential and innovative recording artists of the past three decades, Lou Reed has always offered a shrewd view of life in the big city in all its colors. It is no surprise, then, that he considers Edgar Allan Poe a spiritual forefather. In The Raven, Reed immerses himself in Poe’s enigmatic world and sets out to reimagine his work to mesmerizing effect. In 2001 Lou Reed, legendary theater director Robert Wilson, and an all-star cast presented the musical POEtry at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. Reed’s subsequent studio adaptation, The Raven, has been hailed as one of his more daring and challenging albums. Here, accompanied by photographs by the acclaimed artist and director Julian Schnabel, is the definitive text of the CD release. The Raven includes Reed's distinctive takes on Poe’s most celebrated works, as well as song lyrics written for the musical. It is a fascinating meeting between a dark chronicler of the twentieth century and his nineteenth-century counterpart; the work of one iconoclastic genius offering a haunting exploration of another.

Download or read book Poe Abroad written by Lois Davis Vines and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2002-04-25 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no one would be more shocked at the steady rise of his literary reputation—on a truly global scale—Than Edgar Allan Poe himself. Poe's literary reputation has climbed steadily since his death in 1849. In Poe Abroad, Lois Vines has brought together a collection of essays that document the American writer's influence on the diverse literatures—and writers—of the world. Over twenty scholars demonstrate how and why Poe has significantly influenced many of the major literary figures of the last 150 years. Part One includes studies of Poe's popularity among general readers, his influence on literary movements, and his reputation as a poet, fiction writer, and literary critic. Part Two presents analyses of the role Poe played in the literary development of specific writers representing many different cultures. Poe Abroad commemorates the 150th anniversary of Poe's death and celebrates his worldwide impact, beginning with the first literal translation of Poe into a foreign language, “The Gold-Bug”into French in 1845. Charles Baudelaire translated another Poe tale in 1848 and four years later wrote an essay that would make Poe a well-known author in Europe even before he achieved recognition in America. Poe died knowing only that some of his stories had been translated into French. He probably never would have imagined that his work would be admired and imitated as far away as Japan, China, and India or would have a lasting influence on writers such as Baudelaire, August Strindberg, Franz Kafka, Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cortázar, and Tanizaki Junichiro. As we approach the sesquicentennial of his death, Poe Abroad brings together a timely one-volume assessment of Poe's influence throughout the world.

Book Synopsis The Cubies' ABC by : Mary Chase Mills Lyall
Download or read book The Cubies' ABC written by Mary Chase Mills Lyall and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-04-26 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written by Mary Mills Lyall in collaboration with her architect husband Earl Harvey Lyall, who also illustrated it. "The Cubies' ABC" is a delightful and humorous satirical alphabet book that makes fun of Cubists while pretending to be a kid's book. Three unidentified individuals are called The Cubies. Each has green hair and is one of three different colors: blue, mustard, and magenta. Instead of using cubes to build them, Earl Lyall used pyramids. They frequently feature jack-o'-lantern-like leering grins, have red triangle eyes and mouths, and have triangular shapes. They frequently scowl and come out as purposefully dim-witted. They swoon over anything Cubist and mock objectivity throughout the entire book.
Book Synopsis Western Amerykański by : Kevin Mulroy
Download or read book Western Amerykański written by Kevin Mulroy and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In postwar Poland, film poster artists employed the universally recognized symbols of the Western - horse, six-shooter, boots, tin-star badge, Stetson, saddle - to convey violence as a negative force. Unlike many other art forms, the film poster did not fall within the censor's domain because it was not expected to pose a threat to the social order. But messages were conveyed through subtle means of symbol and color. The Polish poster has been likened to the Trojan horse, with the artist smuggling messages onto the streets in the guise of ephemera."--BOOK JACKET. "The posters displayed so strikingly in this book, and discussed in three essays, are from the golden age of Polish poster-making, the mid-1940s to the 1970s."--BOOK JACKET.
Book Synopsis The Will to Sickness by : Gerhard Roth
Download or read book The Will to Sickness written by Gerhard Roth and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Translated from the German by Tristram Wolff. The latest release in Burning Deck's Dichten series focusing on contemporary German writers, THE WILL TO SICKNESS is Gerhard Roth's classic 1973 novella. It reveals Roth's "objective prose" at its finest, where aggregates of particular impressions merge with a quasi-scientific emphasis on individual minute details. The effect of this prose is surreal with an undertone of Angst that perceives anything as strange and menacing, the product of a hard-edged exploration of the strangeness of perception itself. "Shutting the window Kalb caught sight of himself for a moment in the mirror of the windowpane: his eyeballs looked exactly like a set of fried eggs"-from THE WILL TO SICKNESS.
