Download or read book The Better Angel written by Roy Morris and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-07-27 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly three years, Walt Whitman immersed himself in the devastation of the Civil War, tending to thousands of wounded soldiers and recording his experiences with an immediacy and compassion unequaled in wartime literature anywhere in the world. In The Better Angel, acclaimed biographer Roy Morris, Jr. gives us the fullest account of Whitman's profoundly transformative Civil War years and an historically invaluable examination of the Union's treatment of its sick and wounded. Whitman was mired in depression as the war began, subsisting on journalistic hackwork, his "great career" as a poet apparently stalled. But when news came that his brother George had been wounded at Fredericksburg, Whitman rushed south to find him. Deeply affected by his first view of the war's casualties, he began visiting the camp's wounded and found his calling for the duration of the war. Three years later, he emerged as the war's "most unlikely hero," a living symbol of American democratic ideals of sharing and brotherhood. Brilliantly researched and beautifully written, The Better Angel explores a side of Whitman not fully examined before, one that greatly enriches our understanding of his later poetry. Moreover, it gives us a vivid and unforgettable portrait of the "other army"--the legions of sick and wounded soldiers who are usually left in the shadowy background of Civil War history--seen here through the unflinching eyes of America's greatest poet.

Book Synopsis Preposthumous Poetry by : Irwin Jack Nissman
Download or read book Preposthumous Poetry written by Irwin Jack Nissman and published by . This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "PREPOSTHUMOUS POETRY" Inspired by Nature, a gifted poet takes his readers on a journey through unimagined realms of thought, exploring topics hitherto unvisited by his predecessors, identifying wonders, limitations, complications and barriers, revealing connections, insights and possibilities that are a revelation, and that can leave a lasting impression on readers of these thoughtful, tightly-constructed, rhyming poems. These poems, many resulting from deep thought, others from heartfelt (and patriotic) feelings, provide fascinating ideas, skillful word wizardry, little-known historical accounts, entertainment, inspiration, enlightenment, personal observations, musings and reflections, vital messages and suggestions, inferences and deductions, remarkable conclusions, "incredible" facts, commentaries on life, amusing jabs at some human foibles, pop song writing errors, unintended consequences, thoughts regarding loving relationships and age-old human problems, an award-winning riddle, and possibly, the best short love poem ever conceived! Readers will be amazed by the range of topics covered, from the sublime to the commonplace, from a rap summary of American history, to why children ask "Why" questions, from what we're made of (stardust!), to what household dust's made of, even to what "is" is (we don't know!), and to why plastics are a problem! Although alphabetically presented and categorized, some poems defy any classification! Inspiration for these poems has come from many sources, in and out of this world! This poet's intact pre-TV imagination and poetic muse haven't set any boundaries to what topics could be explored and delineated, in poetic verse. This has led him to some intriguingly possible explanations for events and circumstances that have affected humans throughout history. Through poetic imagery, readers will learn new things they've never thought about! They'll discover a world of ideas that may never have crossed their mind, things they've not been told before, told in interesting ways that inform, without being boring, of how Nature's workshops continually perform miracles, how survival's aided by "programmed death," how and why differing "worldviews" can wreak havoc! They'll be enthralled by a poem about the timeless enrichment of Art, "What we have, other species have not!," told of the value of "true value creators," of capitalism's "greatest good," and of the disaster wrought by stock market analysts' predictions about stocks' future dividends, of possible causes of "gender confusion," of how Earth's fury can "transport" souls, and how Nature may "recycle" them! This book's a sojourn into the many levels of a thoughtful man's unique mind, guiding readers through a "museum of his intellect." Poetry lovers will enjoy and respond favorably to this poet's "magnum opus," a book of poems written during his last career (teaching, age 66-75), after spending much of his life attending colleges, learning how to continue to be useful to our country, before and after the Cold War. He brings a new, concise writing style to his poetry, with hopefulness and an inspirational poetic vision of how we might shape our future for a better world. Visualization can lead to realization, as in "Visualizations, Past And Future," wherein it states that this poet-teacher-engineer had invented the encrypted PIN "keys," thus enabling the ATMs that have made the world's banks accessible, even when closed!
Download or read book The Poems written by Giacomo Leopardi and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-01-19 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aonia edizioni. Translated: F. Townsend. Preface: O. B. Frothingham. Giacomo Leopardi is a great name in Italy among philosophers and poets, but is quite unknown in this country, and Mr. Townsend has the honor of introducing him, in the most captivating way, to his countrymen. In Germany and France he has excited attention. Translations have been made of his works; essays have been written on his ideas. But in England his name is all but unheard of. Six or seven years ago Mr. Charles Edwards published a translation of the essays and dialogues, but no version of the poems has appeared, so far as I know. Leopardi was substantially a poet, that is to say, he had imagination, sentiment, passion, an intense love of beauty, a powerful impulse towards things ideal. The sad tone of his speculations about the universe and human destiny gave an impression of mournfulness to his lines, but this rather deepened the pathos of his work.
Book Synopsis If You Can Keep It by : Eric Metaxas
Download or read book If You Can Keep It written by Eric Metaxas and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times bestselling author Eric Metaxas delivers an extraordinary book that is part history and part rousing call to arms, steeped in a critical analysis of our founding fathers' original intentions for America. In 1787, when the Constitution was drafted, a woman asked Ben Franklin what the founders had given the American people. "A republic," he shot back, "if you can keep it." More than two centuries later, Metaxas examines what that means and how we are doing on that score. If You Can Keep It is at once a thrilling review of America's uniqueness—including our role as a "nation of nations"—and a chilling reminder that America's greatness cannot continue unless we embrace our own crucial role in living out what the founders entrusted to us. Metaxas explains that America is not a nation bounded by ethnic identity or geography, but rather by a radical and unprecedented idea, based on liberty and freedom for all. He cautions us that it's nearly past time we reconnect to that idea, or we may lose the very foundation of what made us exceptional in the first place.
