Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Living Female Writers of the South Arden gazed in amazement and incredulity, though he held before his eyes the mute evidence of his skill; here was a nearly perfect picture of a creature so lovely that under other circumstances his artist soul would have bowed before her as the realization of his fairest ideal of woman. Could this crea ture indeed have dealt the fatal blow which deprived his kinsman of life? Could nature create a being so fair, and yet deny those finer impulses which should move one of such perfect mould? But if she had not committed the deed, why was she here, why should her lovely face have been the last object on which the eyes of the dead man rested?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Authors: A Hand-Book of American Literature From Early Colonial to Living Writers To prepare a text-book of American literature is a difficult task. It 'is utterly impossible to give every writer a place in so small a compass, and, as a matter of fact, justice cannot be done every section of our broad land. Especially do we realize this to be true, when we discover that in the South alone there are over writers, to say naught of the remaining three-sections. While we trust a spirit of fairness shall per vade our work, we know that in the judgment of many wise critics some names will be omitted contrary to their opinion, and many inserted which they think should have been omitted. Every compiler of a work of this kind is subject to this criticism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literature of the South To give an introduction to the study of Literature as it has developed in the South leading to the fur ther study of the works of southern authors, is the purpose of this book. Literature and history go hand in hand, for, when all is said, the literature of a people is the expression of their life. T o understand Literature, then, we must understand its source. I have endeavored to indicate the characteristic of the succeeding periods of literary development, and to trace the influence of historical events upon the life and consequent expression of the people of the South. It has, of course, been impossible to discuss all southern writers. Only the more representative are treated with any fulness, and many names have been necessarily omitted. Thus, also, the lists given of writers and their works are representative and not exhaustive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Literature A fuller treatment of Southern writers is to be found in this work than in other volumes of similar size on American litera ture. In the last decade or two the recognition of the literary contribution of the South has steadily grown, until the space allotted to the subject has assumed respectable proportions. In recent histories it covers many pages. Even yet, however, we have only imperfectly come to understand the far-reaching consequence in our literary development of the writings of men and women in the South since 1870; while the sterling worth of a few older authors is just now becoming more apparent as we are getting far enough away from the adverse conditions under which they wrote to see things in right perspective. In this account of American literature more space has been given to this group in the conviction that its variety and peou liar quality should have wider recognition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Writers: Biographical and Critical Studies; Charles Egbert Craddock Murfreesboro, was in its day the most magnificent in that region. In this home was born, about 1850, a little girl to Whom her parents gave the name Mary N oailles, but whom most people will prefer to remember as Charles Egbert Craddock. In childhood a paralysis, which caused lameness for life, deprived her of all participation in the sports of children and set her bright and active mind to work to devise its own amusement and entertainment. Early sickness has more than once proved a blessing in disguise to the future writer of fiction by teaching him to train the observation, to live in good books, and to company with his fancies. It sent Scott to the country and to the fountains of leg end and story, strongly inclined Dickens to reading, and laid Haw thorne upon the carpet to study the long day through. In the same way the Tennessee girl early developed a marked fondness for works of ficchatles Egbert Graooock.

Our range of vision is limited by our horizon, and unless that horizon is lifted our field of vision will always remain the same. To those whose knowledge of American literature has been acquired merely from text-books written by men who have given scant space to the authors of the South, it is, in spite of its truth, an astonish ing fact that Simms ranks only second to Haw thorne; that Poe surpasses all the other of our poets; that Calhoun was our most profound logi eian, and Maury the greatest American scientist of his day.

Download or read book Three Centuries of Southern Poetry written by Carl Holliday and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Centuries of Southern Poetry: 1607-1907 Within the last decade the interest in Southern literature has become widespread. Nearly every Southern college and university now offers a course in the subject, and the summer schools and Chautauquas frequently make it a special feature. All this is as it should be. There are Southern writers scarce ly known by name to-day who are deserving of careful atten tion. Especially is this true among the Southern poets, who, amidst prosperity and adversity, have sung songs of gladness and of sorrow that stand among the finest productions in American literature. How few of them are intimately, lov ingly known at the present day! This collection is made in the hope that still further in terest may be aroused. Other collections have been made, but they have dealt almost entirely With the poets living in the first sixty years of the nineteenth century. In the present compilation specimens are given from three centuries of Southern verse - from 1607 to 1907. Because of this fact the book, it is hoped, will be of interest not only to students of literature, but also to students of history and to lovers of the old and curious in general.

Download or read book Southern Life in Southern Literature written by Maurice G. Fulton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Life in Southern Literature: Selections of Representative Prose and Poetry In this book I have endeavored to represent as adequately as might be possible within the limits of a volume of moderate size the work of the more important Southern writers. My attempt has been not merely to show the value of literary effort in the South as absolute achievement but also to emphasize its importance as a record of Southern life and character. Taking literature in the stricter sense of fiction, essay, and poetry, I have omitted the historians, the biographers, and the political writers so frequently used to swell the bulk of Southern literature. In poetry I have endeavored to select poems which have attained some measure of general critical approval. But in some instances, especially in the Civil War poetry, I have included poems obviously without much literary merit because they were household poems of an older generation and embodied in a characteristic way the traditions and spirit of the people who loved them. For much the same reason I have included a few specimens of the vanishing survivals of old English ballads to the presence of which in the South attention has lately been turned. In the case of the older prose writers, I have drawn upon a very limited number of the most significant works. As most of these were out of print or difficult to secure, I have tried to give a general idea of each by means of liberal excerpts and suitable summaries.
