Book Synopsis Moseley Miscellany by : Sangharakshita
Download or read book Moseley Miscellany written by Sangharakshita and published by Windhorse Publications. This book was released on 2015-08-17 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sangharakshita, founder of the Triratna Buddhist Order, moved to Moseley, Birmingham in 1997. He was in his early 70s and stayed there 16 years. In some ways it was one of the most important periods of his life: he was handing on his responsibilities to senior disciples. What was it like to be Sangharakshita then? This miscellany of prose and verse brings us right into the life and mind of the author. These are not 'Buddhist teachings' in the traditional sense but the output of someone whose whole life has been lived in and for the Dharma.

Book Synopsis The Complete Poetry of Robert Herrick by : Tom Cain
Download or read book The Complete Poetry of Robert Herrick written by Tom Cain and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Herrick has long been one of the best loved of English lyric poets. Known through the centuries as the author of 'Gather ye rosebuds', he also wrote, as this new edition shows, hundreds of songs, epigrams and longer poems equally worthy of attention. Volume I of this new edition of Herrick's work contains Hesperides, Herrick's only published collection. As well as the commentary on Hesperides, volume II contains the fifty-nine surviving manuscript poems which can be firmly attributed to Herrick, and on which his reputation was based before 1648. It is an ambitious and original attempt to recover for the first time the history of Herrick's corpus of manuscript poetry, and to identify how his poems circulated, and who his copyists and readers were. By establishing the type of sources to which they had access and the nature and quality of the poems these sources contained, and through the histories of transmission that accompany every poem, this volume offers a significant body of evidence that deepens our critical understanding not only of Herrick's poetry, but of the mechanics of scribal publication and the culture of reading, writing and performing poetry and music in early modern England. Where, as is often the case, a musical setting survives this is also printed, along with a commentary on the setting, in a form which is designed to encourage the performance of the lyrics.
