Book Synopsis Notable American Women by : Ben Marcus
Download or read book Notable American Women written by Ben Marcus and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2002-03-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben Marcus achieved cult status and gained the admiration of his peers with his first book, The Age of Wire and String. With Notable American Women he goes well beyond that first achievement to create something radically wonderful, a novel set in a world so fully imagined that it creates its own reality. On a farm in Ohio, American women led by Jane Dark practice all means of behavior modification in an attempt to attain complete stillness and silence. Witnessing (and subjected to) their cultish actions is one Ben Marcus, whose father, Michael Marcus, may be buried in the back yard, and whose mother, Jane Marcus, enthusiastically condones the use of her son for (generally unsuccessful) breeding purposes, among other things. Inventing his own uses for language, the author Ben Marcus has written a harrowing, hilarious, strangely moving, altogether engrossing work of fiction that will be read and argued over for years to come.

Excerpt: ...(Fihrest; Fluegel's Grammutiac/ie Schule der Araber, p. 89.) (3) This maxim is probably inserted here because the neglect of it cost Ibn as-Sikltlt his lite. (6) Abd Jaafar Ahmad lbn Obaid, surnamed Abu Aslda, was one of the learned men oi Kufa and preceptor to al-Muntasir and al-Motazz, the sons of al-Mutawakkil. He composed some pbilological works and died A. H. 273 (A. D. 886-7), or 278, by another account.--Fihrest; Fluegel's Gram. Schule der Ar., p. 161.) (5) Al Farra, on opening his course of lectures, asked each of his scholars what was his name and from what country he came. lbn as-Sikkit answered frankly that he was from Khuzistan, a country the inhabitants of which, according to Yakut, were notorious for their avarice, their stupidity and the vileness of their inclinations. It was said that a year's residence in that country sufficed to change the cleverest man into an idiot.--(Dictionnairo geog. de la Perse, translated from the Arabic of Yakfit by Barbier de ltfeynard.) (6) See p. 269 of this volume and Fluegel's Gramm. Schule der Ar., p. 156. (7) Abu 'l-Hasan Ali lbn al-Mubarak al-Lihyani, was al-Kisai's servant-boy. llaving had frequent opportunities of meeting with men of learning and Arabs of the desert who spoke their language with elegance, be picked up a great quantity oi literary information, and composed some works. Abu Obaid al-Kasim lbn Sallam (vol. II, p. 486) received lessons from him. He died probably towards the commencement oi the third century of the Hijra (A. D. 912).-(Fihrest, fol. 05.) (8) The epistolary style of the Arabs during the first and second centuries after Muhammad, was highly admired by philologers for the subtilty of the thoughts and the elrgant concision of the style.

Book Synopsis The Biographical Dictionary of Literary Failure by : C. D. Rose
Download or read book The Biographical Dictionary of Literary Failure written by C. D. Rose and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A darkly comic, satirical reference book about writers who never made it into the literary canon A signal event of literary scholarship, The Biographical Dictionary of Literary Failure compiles the biographies of history’s most notable cases of a complete lack of literary success. As such, it is the world’s leading authority on the subject. Compiled in one volume by C. D. Rose, a well-educated person universally acknowledged in parts of England as the world’s pre-eminent expert on inexpert writers, the book culls its information from lost or otherwise ignored archives scattered around the globe, as well as the occasional dustbin. The dictionary amounts to a monumental accomplishment: the definitive appreciation of history’s least accomplished writers. Thus immortalized beyond deserving and rescued from hard-earned obscurity, the authors presented in this historic volume comprise a who’s who of the talentless and deluded, their stories timeless litanies of abject psychosis, misapplication, and delinquency. It is, in short, a treasure.
