Book excerpt: "This well-wrought historical mystery pits the brilliant wordsmith John Donne against the Machiavellian politician Robert Cecil. The match is uneven; Cecil runs James I's kingdom while Donne struggles to make ends meet through the patronage of the alluring Countess of Bedford, who sets herself up as a rival to his resourceful wife, Anne. Donne is summoned to meet with Cecil, who suborns the struggling poet as a spy to infiltrate the underground network of English Catholics, seeking Jesuit priests. But Donne wants no part of any spying. He sets out instead to outwit Cecil as he journeys with Lady Bedford's crafty old manservant through dangerous territory, surviving plots and threats by his wits, aid from the quick-spirited Anne, and a strong dose of gallows humor.

Download or read book Broken and Blended written by Harry Moore and published by Kelsay Books. This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Broken and Blended, Harry Moore provides a story arc moving from deep and grinding loss toward healing and regeneration, all with the awareness that life is forever in flux. The poems move from knowledge gained in Eden through a painful divorce which leaves the poet "weeping into the light falling heavily /once or twice on the lumpy ground" he cannot see. Subsequent sections address times to "embrace," "heal," "build up," "dance," and finally "a time for peace." We meet the poet's children, his stepchildren, his wife, all portrayed through an honest lens that accommodates the flaws and imperfections of our existence. In the end, the poet assures that, although life is "pending, provisional, tentative," its alchemy works magic-pain, grief, loss coalesce into a fully experienced life and love, remembered on the page. -Nancy Owen Nelson, Author of My Heart Wears No Colors and Portals: A Memoir in Verse It is easy to praise these poems for their skillful construction, their precise imagery, the way form finds its right way to shape the telling of these stories-but what I respond most directly to is the rich humanity of Moore's vision. Marriages, children, grandchildren, and the process of living a life and aging into some kind of wisdom (or at the very least self-knowledge) make up the subject matter of Broken and Blended, and at the heart of Moore's explorations is what it means to be a man in relationship with others. The imperfect, important work of love shines through, and it gives all of us-however broken or blended or mended-hope. -Jennifer Horne, Alabama Poet Laureate, Author of Bottle Tree, Little Wanderer, and Borrowed Light Broken and Blended offers a fresh, contemporary version of an old, familiar story, with its seasons of loss and gain, joy and sorrow, errancy and renewal. In richly allusive, clear, and conversational language, Harry Moore tells this story of love's transformations with humor, affection and wry self-awareness, from the point of view of a husband, father, step-father, and grandfather who feels deeply and sometimes "'think[s] too much.'" Beautifully and subtly well-crafted, the poems' rhythmic cadences, wordplay, apt metaphors and at times surprising twists draw the reader into this engaging narrator's world and state of mind. Do we control the narrative, or does the story-our biology, gender, raising, circumstance-control us? Broken and Blended implicitly asks these questions, even as it affirms that "We must be able to say what / happened," that "This is how we know." -Susan Luther, Author of Breathing in the Dark, Greatest Hits, and other chapbooks

Download or read book Alchemy Tried in the Fire written by William R. Newman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2005 Pfizer Prize from the History of Science Society. What actually took place in the private laboratory of a mid-seventeenth century alchemist? How did he direct his quest after the secrets of Nature? What instruments and theoretical principles did he employ? Using, as their guide, the previously misunderstood interactions between Robert Boyle, widely known as "the father of chemistry," and George Starkey, an alchemist and the most prominent American scientific writer before Benjamin Franklin as their guide, Newman and Principe reveal the hitherto hidden laboratory operations of a famous alchemist and argue that many of the principles and practices characteristic of modern chemistry derive from alchemy. By analyzing Starkey's extraordinary laboratory notebooks, the authors show how this American "chymist" translated the wildly figurative writings of traditional alchemy into quantitative, carefully reasoned laboratory practice—and then encoded his own work in allegorical, secretive treatises under the name of Eirenaeus Philalethes. The intriguing "mystic" Joan Baptista Van Helmont—a favorite of Starkey, Boyle, and even of Lavoisier—emerges from this study as a surprisingly central figure in seventeenth-century "chymistry." A common emphasis on quantification, material production, and analysis/synthesis, the authors argue, illustrates a continuity of goals and practices from late medieval alchemy down to and beyond the Chemical Revolution. For anyone who wants to understand how alchemy was actually practiced during the Scientific Revolution and what it contributed to the development of modern chemistry, Alchemy Tried in the Fire will be a veritable philosopher's stone.
