Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Romance IT is to be supposed that children do not read Prefaces these are Bluebeard's rooms, which they are not curious to unlock. A few words may therefore be said about the Romances contained in this book. In the editor's Opinion, romances are only fairy tales grown up. The whole mass of the plot and incident of romance was invented by nobody knows who, nobody knows when, nobody knows where. Almost every people has the Cinderella story, with all sorts Of variations a boy hero in place Of a girl heroine, a beast in place of a fairy godmother, and so on. The Zunis, an agricultural tribe of New Mexico, have a version in which the moral turns out to be against poor Cinderella, who comes to an ill end. The Red Indians have the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice, told in a very touching shape, but without the music. On the other hand, the negroes in the States have the Orpheus tale, adapted to plantation life, in a form which is certainly borrowed from Europeans. This version was sent to me some years ago, by Mr. Barnet Phillips, Brooklyn, New York, and I give it here for its curiosity. If the proper names, Jim Orpus and Dicey, had not been given, we might not feel absolutely certain that the story was borrowed. It is a good example of adaptation from the heroic age of Greece to the servile age Of Africans. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romantic They turned again at the end of the platform. The tail of her long, averted stare was conscious of him, of his big, tweed-suited body and its behaviour, squaring and swelling and tightening in its dignity, of its heavy swing to her shoulder as they turned. She could stave off the worst by not looking at him, by looking at other thins, impersonal innocent things: the bright, yellow, sharp-gabled station; the black girders of the bridge; the white signal post beside it holding out a stiff, black-banded arm; the two rails curving there, with the flat, white glitter and sweep of scythes; pointed blades coming together, buried in the bend of the cutting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Wonder Book of Old Romance The criticism was perfectly true, from a literary point of view. The older romances were for the most part of small poetic merit, while their construe tion was often ill-balanced and digressive. There is hardly one of the features dwelt upon by Chaucer which cannot be paralleled in them. Sir Topaz was a knight fair and gent; so were Sir Guy, Sir Bevis, and the rest of them. He came to a wood where was many a wild beast, both buck and hare: those ferocious creatures pastured there, apparently, because the poet had to fill up a line somehow, much as the author of Sir Bevis, anticipating King Lear, was forced to help out his metre with rats and mice and such small deer. Sir Topaz wore a breech and eke a shirt; his face was as white as the finest bread; he had a seemly nose: in like manner every detail of clothing, figure, and armour, relevant or irrelevant, is dwelt on in the old romances. He pricked over stile and stone, in his quest for the elf-queen, with ease, rapidity, and an absence of adventure; so too Amys journeys many days to seek Amylion, without, so far as the poet tells us, any accident or any ordinary occurrence of daily life except a feeling of great fatigue.

Book excerpt: Biretta Books is proud to present this masterwork of the great Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen! In The Divine Romance, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen delves into love and life with all its pain, sorrow, loneliness and human failures from the perspective of our human quest for God, the inner life of the Trinity, the outpouring of the Spirit and most of all the Lord of Calvary and Easter. The Divine Romance touches on perennial themes and is a classic that has a power to heal, help and inspire the reader. In his crisp pastoral style, Sheen describes the believer's spiritual journey back to the Father with all of its ecclesial dimensions. Christ guides our mystical journey and forms us into his very Body on Earth.
