Book Synopsis Coleridge's Political Poetics by : Jacob Lloyd
Download or read book Coleridge's Political Poetics written by Jacob Lloyd and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024-01-19 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s engagement with ‘Whig poetry’: a tradition of verse from the eighteenth century which celebrated the political and constitutional arrangements of Britain as guaranteeing liberty. It argues that, during the 1790s, Coleridge was able to articulate radical ideas under the cover of widely accepted principles through his references to this poetry. He positioned his poetry within a mainstream discourse, even as he favoured radical social change. Jacob Lloyd argues that the poets Mark Akenside, William Lisle Bowles, and William Cowper each provided Coleridge with a kind of Whig poetics to which he responded. When these references are understood, much of Coleridge’s work which seems purely personal or imaginative gains a political dimension. In addition, Lloyd reassess Coleridge’s relationship with Thomas Percy’s Reliques of Ancient English Poetry, to provide an original, political reading of ‘The Rime of the Ancyent Marinere’. This book revises our understanding of the political and poetic development of a major poet and, in doing so, provides a new model for the origins of British Romanticism more broadly
Book Synopsis Musing the Mosaic by : Matthew Roberson
Download or read book Musing the Mosaic written by Matthew Roberson and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Musing the Mosaic prominent critics of postmodern and contemporary fiction and culture discuss the fictional and theoretical works of Ronald Sukenick, one of the most important American writers to emerge from the late 1960s. Sukenick has been a prolific participant in reshaping the American literary tradition for two generations and played a pivotal role in the creation and growth of the Fiction Collective and FC2 publishing houses, as well as the journals American Book Review and Black Ice Magazine. In his work he argues that contemporary fiction can neither perform traditional functions nor rely on any conventions in an ever-more dynamic world. Staying true to Sukenick's own creative style, one that takes the seams out of writing before re-stitching it in ways that are truly novel, the contributors examine how and why his writing comes closer to the dissolving, fragmentary nature of reality and its lack of closure than perhaps anything written before it.

Book Synopsis Christmas Tales by : William McInnes
Download or read book Christmas Tales written by William McInnes and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I can't help it if I'm a boring conservative dag, but I love Christmas, always have and hopefully always will. Whatever brand of faith you fly under, even if you proclaim you don't have one, Christmas is a time of generosity, good citizenship and decency. It's the holiday where shopping centres become a sea of dazed shoppers bearing checklists as long as your arm, lunch is a neverending buffet of prawns and ham and your electricity bill is doubly struck by having to run the fan all day and keep those decorative lights blinking through the night. William McInnes, bestselling author of FATHERHOOD, WORSE THINGS HAPPEN AT SEA, and A MAN'S GOT TO HAVE A HOBBY tackles the silly season in a way only he can - telling stories brimming with good humour and nostalgia, to remind us what Christmas is all about: family.

Book Synopsis After The Flight by : Michael DeBenedictis
Download or read book After The Flight written by Michael DeBenedictis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-03-04 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of poems is the second of Michael DeBenedictis' self-publications, a follow-up to Mr. Swan's Poems. The goal for this sophomore release is to delve deeper, find new ways of communicating, and to expand upon his style, subject matter, and command of the English language. To put it simply, to more colorfully take you a step further into his world and mind. To put it complexly, to present the author to his readers, again, but in a more personal way (short of being face to face) by getting to know his personality, nature, and writer's eccentricities transposed into poetry, down to the words that carry over into the next lines and the pictures of views inside his apartment. All of these poems are original works. The date of the final draft of the compiled, completed work was Tuesday, March 3, 2015.

Book Synopsis The Poetics of Jacobean Drama by : Coburn Freer
Download or read book The Poetics of Jacobean Drama written by Coburn Freer and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2019-12-01 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1982. The Poetics of Jacobean Drama argues for a rediscovered approach to the study of Renaissance drama. Coburn Freer observes that most modern criticism of this drama treats the plays as if they were written in prose, thus overlooking whole areas of dramatic meaning that were understood in the past. Such an understanding, he asserts, was common among writers, actors, audiences, and readers of the Elizabethan and Jacobean eras, and a knowledge of it is essential to a full appreciation of the characterization and dramatic structures in these plays. Freer explores the evolution of the modern reluctance to approach Renaissance drama as one would dramatic poetry—from the standpoint of a listener. Blank verse, the author shows, provided Jacobean dramatists with a poetic form against which they could work the pressures of experience within their characters. The writers' ability to work with and against this form provided infinite resources for delineating character and creating significant coherences in the structure of a play. The Poetics of Jacobean Drama offers insights into what the Renaissance writer, actor, and playgoer would have regarded as the domain of poetry in drama. Topics discussed include the conditions of stage performance and the style of acting, Elizabethan education, the rise of printed texts and collected editions, and the comments of Elizabethan audiences and readers. Freer's commentary and theoretical explanations suggest both why and how we should pay closer attention to the poetry of Renaissance drama.
Book Synopsis Eternal Beloved (Travels Across Time, Book 2) by : Mary Ellen Johnson
Download or read book Eternal Beloved (Travels Across Time, Book 2) written by Mary Ellen Johnson and published by ePublishing Works!. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Jaded Contemporary Romance Novelist Finds Love in 14th Century Ireland in ETERNAL BELOVED, a Historical Time-Travel Romance by Mary Ellen Johnson --14th Century Ireland-- Bel Lucy might be the wildly successful owner of Bella Publishing, specializing in romances, steamy and sweet, but she doesn’t believe in love. Bel certainly doesn’t believe in love after a wrong turn in the haunted Castle by the Sea lands her in fourteenth-century Ireland where she is forced to endure the company of the musclebound—not to mention poorly groomed—knight, Alaric DeLaMer. In a time of famine and civil war, Alaric proves to be Bel’s protector while dismissing Bel as a prickly creature who delights in goading him with ridiculous tales. When a duplicitous alchemist sends Bel back to the 21st century, Bel discovers she can never be happy in any time or place—unless its beside Alec, the complete opposite of Bel’s imagined romance heroes. Realizing she was happier in the 14th century, Bel risks everything to battle her way back to Alec but will her eternal beloved be waiting in his Castle by the Sea? Publisher’s Note: Readers passionate about history will appreciate the author’s penchant for detail and accuracy. In keeping with the era, this story contains scenes of brutality which are true to the time and man’s timeless inhumanity. There are a limited number of sexual scenes with some vulgarity characteristic of the time. THE TRAVELS ACROSS TIME SERIES Before I Wake Eternal Beloved THE KNIGHTS OF ENGLAND, in series order The Lion and the Leopard A Knight There Was Within A Forest Dark A Child Upon The Throne Lords Among the Ruins The Flames of Rebellion MEET MARY ELLEN JOHNSON Her passion for Medieval England sparked Mary Ellen Johnson’s writing career. Her first medieval historical, The Lion and the Leopard, was followed by The Landlord’s Black-Eyed Daughter, a historical novel based on the Alfred Noyes poem, “The Highwayman.” (Published under the pseudonym, Mary Ellen Dennis.) Landlord was chosen as one of the top 100 historical romances of 2013. After taking a twenty-year detour in a quixotic quest to change the world—rather like Arthurian knights’ quests to find the holy grail, which ended in similar failure—Mary Ellen has happily returned to historical fiction writing and her favorite time period, the tumultuous fourteenth century. Her six-book series, Knights of England, follows the fortunes of the characters (and their progeny) introduced in The Lion and the Leopard through the Black Death, the reign of that most gloriously medieval of monarchs, Edward III, the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt, and ends with the deposition and murder of Richard II in 1399. There is nothing Mary Ellen loves more than bringing Medieval England alive for the reader. She particularly enjoys researching battles, campaigns, the daily lives of both lord and peasant, and trying to figure out our ancestors’ thought processes, particularly how they viewed their world. Oh, and did she mention the castles and cathedrals? Mary Ellen likes to say her favorite place in the world is standing before the tomb of the Black Prince in Canterbury Cathedral. (Hyperbole, of course, since Mary Ellen is not that well-traveled and her favorite places are probably wherever her kids and grandkids reside.)

Book Synopsis A Prelude to a Kiss by : Kenneth Pomares
Download or read book A Prelude to a Kiss written by Kenneth Pomares and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-07 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pathway Life can often be compared to our roads and highways With never ending lines that begin to end And end to begin. Going one way, And sometimes two? Straightaways to sharp turns Never knowing where it will take you. And as you know, life has its uphill battles as well as down sloping defeats. Because life, like our roads and highways, has its mergers and departures, Detours and dead ends. But does this mean life ends or does it begin? A Prelude to a Kiss is an intimate depiction of author Kenneth Wayne Pomares' self. Through his poetical musings, experience the emotions associated with the moments before a first kiss-nervous energy, eager anticipation, heightened awareness, and humbling respect. Almost everyone can recall their first kiss-from how they approached the person with whom they were consumed, to the moment their bodies met, to the instant that they felt comfortable enough to kiss. True, contemporary, and controversial, the prose in A Prelude to a Kiss illustrates that how we approach a kiss is sometimes how we approach our lives. A Prelude to a Kiss provides a stimulating look at the innocence of love and trials of life as perceived by Pomares.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare and the Eighteenth-Century Novel by : Kate Rumbold
Download or read book Shakespeare and the Eighteenth-Century Novel written by Kate Rumbold and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eighteenth century has long been acknowledged as a pivotal period in Shakespeare's reception, transforming a playwright requiring 'improvement' into a national poet whose every word was sacred. Scholars have examined the contribution of performances, adaptations, criticism and editing to this process of transformation, but the crucial role of fiction remains overlooked. Shakespeare and the Eighteenth-Century Novel reveals for the first time the prevalence, and the importance, of fictional characters' direct quotations from Shakespeare. Quoting characters ascribe emotional and moral authority to Shakespeare, redeploy his theatricality, and mock banal uses of his words; by shaping in this way what is considered valuable about Shakespeare, the novel accrues new cultural authority of its own. Shakespeare underwrites, and is underwritten by, the eighteenth-century novel, and this book reveals the lasting implications for both of their reputations.
