Book Synopsis A Looking Glasse for the Court by : Antonion de Guevara
Download or read book A Looking Glasse for the Court written by Antonion de Guevara and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An old-spelling edition Sir Francis Bryan's 1548 translation of Antonio de Guevara's Menosprecio de corte y alabanza de aldea (1539), a treatise in the contemptus mundi vein exhorting the reader to quit the court and live in the country. Although de Guevara has not been edited and published in English in over a century, during the mid-sixteenth century his prose was among the most read in all of Europe, translated into every major language. (Merik Casaubon remarked that no book besides the Bible was as often translated and reprinted as Guevara's Dial of Princes, a.k.a. The Golden Boke of Marcus Aurelius.) In A Looking Glasse for the Court, one will find a convergence of the courtly and medieval traditions with a heady infusion of classical erudition (sometimes spurious, of Guevara's own invention). It should be noted that while our text is based on the 1548 translation, our title is taken from the the later 1575 edition. Guevara's prologue, which appears in the original 1539 edition, has been newly translated and restored by Jessica Sequeira, as it has not previously appeared in English.
Download or read book Paris to the Moon written by Adam Gopnik and published by Random House. This book was released on 2001-12-18 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paris. The name alone conjures images of chestnut-lined boulevards, sidewalk cafés, breathtaking façades around every corner--in short, an exquisite romanticism that has captured the American imagination for as long as there have been Americans. In 1995, Adam Gopnik, his wife, and their infant son left the familiar comforts and hassles of New York City for the urbane glamour of the City of Light. Gopnik is a longtime New Yorker writer, and the magazine has sent its writers to Paris for decades--but his was above all a personal pilgrimage to the place that had for so long been the undisputed capital of everything cultural and beautiful. It was also the opportunity to raise a child who would know what it was to romp in the Luxembourg Gardens, to enjoy a croque monsieur in a Left Bank café--a child (and perhaps a father, too) who would have a grasp of that Parisian sense of style we Americans find so elusive. So, in the grand tradition of the American abroad, Gopnik walked the paths of the Tuileries, enjoyed philosophical discussions at his local bistro, wrote as violet twilight fell on the arrondissements. Of course, as readers of Gopnik's beloved and award-winning "Paris Journals" in The New Yorker know, there was also the matter of raising a child and carrying on with day-to-day, not-so-fabled life. Evenings with French intellectuals preceded middle-of-the-night baby feedings; afternoons were filled with trips to the Musée d'Orsay and pinball games; weekday leftovers were eaten while three-star chefs debated a "culinary crisis." As Gopnik describes in this funny and tender book, the dual processes of navigating a foreign city and becoming a parent are not completely dissimilar journeys--both hold new routines, new languages, a new set of rules by which everyday life is lived. With singular wit and insight, Gopnik weaves the magical with the mundane in a wholly delightful, often hilarious look at what it was to be an American family man in Paris at the end of the twentieth century. "We went to Paris for a sentimental reeducation-I did anyway-even though the sentiments we were instructed in were not the ones we were expecting to learn, which I believe is why they call it an education."
Book Synopsis Under the Sign of the Labyrinth by : Christina Tudor-Sideri
Download or read book Under the Sign of the Labyrinth written by Christina Tudor-Sideri and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. Essays. Philosophy. "There is no need to place your hand on a wound to feel it throbbing in pain. There is no need to see its root to know that a tree is dying. I am renouncing history. A film frame has lost its meaning. Vain and cruel, I have become a self that contains all negations to come, I have escaped the universe of time and space--page after page, touch after touch, train after train. I have become the idea of a sea beast moving in the deep. I have become the labyrinth. I am entombed in poetry. In the first stanza, in the last, in the blueness of thirsting ink--in the bruising of eternity. I have become alone. I am alone."--Christina Tudor-Sideri

Download or read book The Voices written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated by Kristofor Minta. In THE VOICES, Rilke presents a series of portraits of pariahs, outcasts, the down-and-outs, turning his often inward gaze toward The Other in a way that pleasantly undermines our notions of his poetic interests. In this new translation, Kristofor Minta breathes new life into these poems, which exude a kind of heat, if only enough to warm your hands by. Includes the original German on facing pages.
Book Synopsis A Cage for Every Child by : S. D. Chrostowska
Download or read book A Cage for Every Child written by S. D. Chrostowska and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Short stories. Speculative fiction. A hunter of giant worms is surprised by the sentience of their prey. A flower sprouting in the palm of a hand delivers bad news. In an unknown country, power is transferred in hyper-sensual ways. Whether fantastic or seemingly mundane, the twenty-four stories united in A CAGE FOR EVERY CHILD unfold as uncanny encounters and brief sojourns in parallel worlds. Told in S. D. Chrostowska's slyly provocative style, each tale questions the stability of our reality and the meaning of our pursuits.
Download or read book Undula written by Bruno Schulz and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hidden in the pages of ?wit-a biweekly Galician magazine aimed at audience of oil officials-for nearly a century, "Undula" presents the likely literary debut Bruno Schulz. Published under the pseudonym Marceli Weron, "Undula" teems with Schulz's unmistakble voice, offering an important look into the nascent workings of his writing mind. Long thought to have been a literary late-bloomer, this breathtaking story-risque even by his standards-provides a glimpse of the formative period of one of the twentieth century's great prose stylists.
Download or read book Morsel May Sleep written by Ellen Dillon and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-15 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes its starting point in Stéphane Mallarmé's Thèmes anglais pour toutes les grammaires, a textbook of translation exercises that he devised during his time as a secondary school English teacher, that uses English proverbs to teach points of grammar. Beginning with found language from the English and French versions of a series of grammar exercises, the poems and prose poems wonder about, and wander about in, language as it comes alive (or fails to) in classrooms. It is a sort of Venn diagram of two books, with the central overlap in the found language from Mallarmé's chosen proverbs and his own French translations of them. From that point, the book branches out into different shapes in each language, following sounds and associations as they emerge.

Book Synopsis Two Stories by : Osvaldo Lamborghini
Download or read book Two Stories written by Osvaldo Lamborghini and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. Translated by Jessica Sequera. The writing of the late Osvaldo Lamborghini (1940--1985) resists almost any attempt to characterize, let alone summarize. An iconoclastic figure of the Latin American literary milieu of the mid-to-late twentieth century, Lamborghini melded the baroque and the low-brow to often outrageous effect (Bolaño said he could only read a few pages of him at once). Rendered into English for the first time here are two long short stories, The Morning and Just Write Anything!, an accurate sample of his work in much the same way that a bucket of seawater is an accurate sample of the ocean.
