Book Synopsis One Hundred Best American Poems (Classic Reprint) by : John Raymond Howard
Download or read book One Hundred Best American Poems (Classic Reprint) written by John Raymond Howard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from One Hundred Best American Poems This grouping of American poems had its rise in the welcome accorded to a little volume entitled "The Hundred Best English Poems," issued by the same publishers. To select one hundred examples from the best work by our American poets, excluding all living authors, and avoiding an undue proportion of pieces by the few acknowledged to be preeminent, has been a puzzling although a pleasant task. Of course, no two editors would select the same hundred pieces from the sixty-four poets here represented. Any one familiar with our poetical literature will miss here certain favorites, and perhaps would criticize some of the selections. This is inevitable. It is not always the most finished art which expresses feelings and "thoughts that shall live within the general mind."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poems of American History The thread of narrative upon which the poems have been strung together has been made as slight as possible, just strong enough to carrv the reader understandingly from one poem to the next. The notes, too, have been limited to the explanation of such allusions as are not likely to be found in the ordinary works of reference, with here and there an account of the circumstances which caused the lines to be written, or an indication of source, where the source is unusual. Every available source has been drawn upon the works of all the better known and many of the minor American and English poets, anthologies, newspaper collections, magazines, collec tions of Americana and especially of broadsides in a word, American and English poetry generally.

Download or read book A Gallery of Famous English and American Poets (Classic Reprint) written by Henry Coppée and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Gallery of Famous English and American Poets IN the following pages we offer to our readers a col lection of beautiful passages from the English Poets. They are arranged in chronological order, and embody that technically modern period, from Thomson to our own time: we have included, also, with the renowned masters of English verse, a few of our own American poets, eminently worthy to appear in such a catalogue. Such a collection would, in itself, give value to this volume, but, to enhance its merits in an eminent degree, exquisite art has been brought into the service, in a manner as striking and beautiful as it is novel. In this respect, the work, it is thought, has no superior, if it even have a, rival. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis A Physician's Anthology of English and American Poetry (Classic Reprint) by : Casey A. Wood

This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Physician's Anthology of English and American Poetry This volume was originally intended as a birthday tribute to Sir William Osler by one of his old Montreal students and by another American 'pupil' in a far different sense. Too late for the festal ceremonies in honour of his seventieth birthday, it was in the hands of the publishers when less than five months later (December 29, 1919), the 'Chief' was taken from us; but the verses herein collected had already passed through his hands and met with his approval. What Osier meant to the medical profession in America, what be did for us, can never be adequately expressed. Omne individuum intffabtle. And his was an individuality so rare, so warm and radiant with goodwill toward his fellow creatures, that we shall scarcely look upon his like again. He was handsome, wise, witty, learned, courteous, fair-minded and brave; with the poet whom he most resembled in happy disposition, he might have said: To me Fate gave, whate'er she else denied, A nature sloping to the sunny side.

Book Synopsis Golden Poems by British and American Authors (Classic Reprint) by : Francis F. Browne
Download or read book Golden Poems by British and American Authors (Classic Reprint) written by Francis F. Browne and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Golden Poems by British and American Authors Having this popular aim prominently in view, the compiler of the present volume has hoped to be able, by limiting his selections as closely as possible to short pieces, to bring together a larger number and greater variety of popular poetical favorites than can perhaps be found elsewhere in equal compass. It would of course be too much to expect that any reader could find here all his favorite pieces. Judgments would differ in many instances as to what should be given precedence; and some chance omissions are inevitable. As a necessary result of the preference for short pieces, many of the older writers are represented but sparingly: and from this there also results, what it is hoped may prove to be an advantage - and what, indeed, has been one of the objects of the book - that many pieces are to be found here which are not usually given in similar collections. In order to afford as wide a representation of authors as possible, the selections have been confined, except in a very few instances, to a small number from each. Many authors, indeed, are known by but a single piece - which would hence have a special claim to a place here. As far as practicable, whole poems have been chosen; but where an author could best be represented by some familiar or characteristic extract, this has been used, and in such case the full title of the poem from which the extract is taken usually appears at the end. Great pains have been taken to secure correct versions of the pieces used. This is, however, a matter of too much difficulty to permit any one who has ever attempted it to be confident of entire success.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise Treasury of Great Poems English and American: From the Foundations of the English Spirit to the Outstanding Poetry of Our Own Time; With Lives of the Poets and Historical Settings Selected and Integrated If poetry is the most potent of human communications, it should also be the simplest and the most logical expression. It should, some say, require no particular cogitation, no after thoughts, no exercise of the speculative mind. But poetry, being the product of intuition as well as experience, transcends plain statements; it surpasses fact and leaps ahead of logic. Simple arithmetic to the contrary, a poem is not the sum of its parts. A poem is greater than its parts; it is even something beyond its parts. It is prompted by an idea, enhanced by rhyme, pointed by meter, colored by metaphor. This fusion, this enrichment and intensification, has created a new thing: the poem itself, which is beyond analysis - even, at times, beyond logic.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Thousand and One Gems of English and American Poetry, From Chaucer to Tennyson: Chronologically Arranged It is not claimed for this volume, that it contains all the gems of English and American poetry, for the num ber of specimens has been purposely limited.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cambridge Book of Poetry and Song: Selected From English and American Authors Though text-books of every variety abound, and many per sons assert the old to be better than the new, yet every year sees no inconsiderable number added to their list. It is folly to suppose that any one prepares a work merely for the sake of doing it, and careful examination proves that every successor in a given field has some superiority of plan, comprehensiveness, detail, or material to recommend it. Something it may lack that others have; but it also has something that others lack. So it is with compilations of poetry. Every one is found faulty somewhere, by somebody, nor can it be imagined possible, with the varied tastes of men, that the work of one should be so all embracing as to leave no intelligent reader disappointed. The compiler of this volume has not pretended to make what she has never found, -a perfect compilation, - and will be gratified if this prove so well done as to save it from the charge of being a supernumerary. Whatever its defects, it still carries out, in the main, her aim in undertaking it, which was, First. - To represent the genius of woman as fairly as that of man. Second - To the extent of the compiler's power, to give those 'poets their just dues who have hitherto not had them.
