Book Synopsis The Singing Tradition of Child's Popular Ballads. (Abridgement) by : Bertrand Harris Bronson
Download or read book The Singing Tradition of Child's Popular Ballads. (Abridgement) written by Bertrand Harris Bronson and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Francis James Child's English and Scottish Popular Ballads, published in ten parts from 1882 to 1898, contained the texts and variants of 305 extant themes written down between the thirteenth and nineteenth centuries. Unsurpassed in its presentation of texts, this exhaustive collection devoted little attention to the ballad music, a want that was filled by Bertrand Harris Bronson in his four volume Traditional Tunes of the Child Ballads. The present book is an abridged, one-volume edition of that work, setting forth music and text for proven examples of oral tradition, with a new comprehensive introduction. Its convenient format makes readily available to students and scholars the materials for a study of the Child ballads as they have been preserved in the British-American singing tradition. Originally published in 1977. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Synopsis English Poetry by : Geoffrey Chaucer
Download or read book English Poetry written by Geoffrey Chaucer and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published between 1909 and 1917 under the name "Harvard Classics," this stupendous 51-volume set-a collection of the greatest writings from literature, philosophy, history, and mythology-was assembled by American academic CHARLES WILLIAM ELIOT (1834-1926), Harvard University's longest-serving president. Also known as "Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf," it represented Eliot's belief that a basic liberal education could be gleaned by reading from an anthology of works that could fit on five feet of bookshelf. Volume XL is the first of three volumes that ambitiously survey half a milliennium of poetry in the English language. Almost 300 works by more than 75 authors in this volume alone span the 14th through 18th centuries, and include: [ Geoffrey Chaucer: "The Prologue to the Canterbury Tales" [ George Gascoigne: "A Lover's Lullaby" [ Sir Walter Raleigh: "His Pilgrimage" [ Sir Philip Sidney: "A Ditty" [ Edmund Spenser: "Rudely Thou Wrongest My Dear Heart's Desire" [ Christopher Marlowe: "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love" [ William Shakespeare: "O Mistress Mine" [ Thomas Campion: "Follow thy Fair Sun" [ Ben Jonson: "The Noble Nature" [ John Donne: "Stay, O Sweet" [ George Herbert: "The Elixir" [ Richard Lovelace: "To Lucasta, on Going to the Wars" [ Andrew Marvell: "Love Will Find Out the Way" [ John Dryden: "Song for St. Cecilia's Day" [ Alexander Pope: "On a Certain Lady at Court" [ Thomas Gray: "Elegy" as well as traditional ballads and numerous works by writers who remain anonymous to us today. Useful explanatory footnotes explain the meanings of obsolete and rare words, as well as those in dialect.
