Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rip Van Winkle: Folk-Opera in Three Acts The legend of Rip Van Winkle, under various names and guises, is one very old and well-nigh universal, having its modified versions as widely scattered as Japan and central Africa. One version, familiar to the Hartz Moun tains in Europe, the story-telling genius of Washington Irving transplanted to our own Catskills, interpenetrating it with characteristics of our early Dutch settlers and legen dary memories of the adventurous sea-captain who dis covered the Hudson river. This tale of Washington Irving's was popularized even more widely by the acting genius of Joseph Jefferson, who has told in the Preface of the published play Rip Van Winkle how the early dramatization of the story by himself was amplified by the dramatist Dion Boucicault and Others into the play which he acted for nearly two generations.

Book Synopsis Rip-Van-Winkle by : Washington Irving
Download or read book Rip-Van-Winkle written by Washington Irving and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-23 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rip Van Winkle - Illustrated by Arthur Rackham Paperback - May 27, 2015by Irving Washington Pook Press celebrates the great Golden Age of Illustration in children's literature. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1850s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children. Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) was one of the premier illustrators of the early 20th Century. He illustrated many books, the first of which was published in 1893. Throughout his career he had developed a very individual style that is was to influence a whole generation of children, artists and other illustrators. His haunting humour and dreamlike romance adds to the enchantment and fantasy of children's literature. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience

Book Synopsis Two Selections by : Washington Irving
Download or read book Two Selections written by Washington Irving and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Selections: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle The object of this edition of Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle is to enable the busy teacher to teach these subjects thoroughly and with less time than heretofore; also to give the new teacher a definite idea of what should be required of a class. The plan presented here is no experiment but has been in successful use in the schools of this (Kings) county for some time. It was not introduced into the schools in its present form but has grown from year to year until it has developed into the present plan, and is now in use by a number of successful teachers practically the same as here presented. It has not been the aim of this work to give a "New Plan" of teaching Literature, but rather to exemplify the daily work, from actual recitations, in the two subjects treated. The compilers of this book are aware that many teachers of English insist that a piece of literature should not be "torn all to pieces" in the study of it, as the beauty and harmony are thereby destroyed. There may be some truth in this contention but certain it is that if questions, and many of them, are not asked the beauties will never be made clear to the average student, toward whom most of the teaching should be directed. There is no other way in which the average pupil can be made to get the thought of an author than by means of questions.

This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rip Van Winkle and His Wonderful Nap Rip Van Inkle This way, children, and hear me tell Of Rip Van Winkle's wonderful nap, - The oddest fortune that ever befell A merry and good-for-nothing chap; Of all the snoozes and slumbers deep, The strangest, longest, and strongest sleep! Up in the heart of the Hudson hills, The lordly, beautiful Kaaterskills. Who has not heard of the Catskill peaks. Lifting their haunted tops so high From the deep, broad vale, which the river seeks, To the thunder-clouds in the summer sky? Their sides are red in the morning sun, And blue and golden when day is done, But in misty Autumn you see them stand In all the colors of Fairyland. Under these mountains snuggling down, In Sixteen Hundred and Sixty-Six, The Dutchmen were building Kaatskill town Of crockery-ware and Holland bricks; There were lots of windmills and weather-vanes, The gable-windows had latticed panes, And every house had a sanded floor, With a cabbage-garden before the door. It was yah Mynheer, and yah ya Vrouw; The goodwives spun in the open air; The men wore breeches, as records show. Ten kinds at a time, pair over pair; They looked all day at the weathercock And smoked their pipes, but at eight o'clock They drank some schnapps, and wagged their head, And covered themselves with feather-beds. In Seventeen Hundred and Sixty-Six, When we were under King George the Third, The queer old people began to mix Their Dutch and their English, word for word; But in gartered hose they stumped about, And lived on bacon and pickled kraut, While a burgomaster ruled the town And the children feared his terrible frown! Rip Van Winkle, who farmed it here, With his son and daughter and scolding' wife, Whenever the latter was n't near Led a jolly and harum-scarum life. Dunder! how he would idle and shirk, Wet weather or dry, his regular work! His roof was leaky, his larder bare, And his buckskin breeches let in the air.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Lands and Letters: The Mayflower to Rip Van Winkle As I became interested in the subject-matter of this volume, there grew upon me a fear that it would run to inordinate length - except some bounds were fixed; hence, no writer is dwelt upon whose birth-date belongs in the present century. This limit shuts off a distinguished group of authors - born in the first decade of this century - whose names come to the thought of all intent upon American literary work. The critics will say, with the justice always distin guishing them - the book should have been longer and covered more names; or, shorter and dealt with fewer writers, or - in some way, should have been - quite other than it is. In deed, upon a reading of the proofs I have unwittingly drifted into agreement with such possible damnatory phrases, and have, again and again, under the imagined critical guid ance, inclined to the confession that I have left undone those things which I ought to have done, and have done those things which I ought not to have done.
