Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Short-Story Has been paid to the history of fiction and to the principles of narrative art. In many of the leading American uni versities the modern novel has been serving as the subject for lectures and as the material for private study, in the course of which the Short-story received afair share of consideration. No doubt, it is in consequence of this incessant discussion of modern fiction and of its methods that the author and the pub lishers have been made aware of a de mand for the present essay, with such revision and annotation as might render it more useful, not only to the earnest student, but also to the casual reader.

Book Synopsis Short Stories and Political Philosophy by : Erin A. Dolgoy
Download or read book Short Stories and Political Philosophy written by Erin A. Dolgoy and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short Stories and Political Philosophy: Power, Prose, and Persuasion explores the relationship between fictional short stories and the classic works of political philosophy. This edited volume addresses the innovative ways that short stories grapple with the same complex political and moral questions, concerns, and problems studied in the fields of political philosophy and ethics. The volume is designed to highlight the ways in which short stories may be used as an access point for the challenging works of political philosophy encountered in higher education. Each chapter analyzes a single story through the lens of thinkers ranging from Plato and Aristotle to Max Weber and Hannah Arendt. The contributors to this volume do not adhere to a single theme or intellectual tradition. Rather, this volume is a celebration of the intellectual and literary diversity available to students and teachers of political philosophy. It is a resource for scholars as well as educators who seek to incorporate short stories into their teaching practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Short-Story Certain of the opinions put forward in the following pages were first expressed briefly (and anonymously) in the columns of the Saturday Review of London in the summer of 1884.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Literature (Classic Reprint) written by Condé Bénoist Pallen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Literature A preface written as an apology is a superfluity. No man has a right to publish unless he have a reason for it. If he have nothing new to say, or if he has not put the old truth in a new fashion to bring it to fresh consideration, he has no reason and therefore no right to utter himself in public. Silence here is an obligation. But I take it that where there may be false or foolish speech, following from great confusion of truth in men's minds, a true word has paramount right to be heard. Babel arises from a con fusion of truth, and amidst the din of many voices declaring falsely or purposelessly, there need be no apology for right utterance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Balzac and the Short-Story The reference to Caleb Williams, in Balzac's preface, is significant. He is correct in ascribing to Godwin's novel the interest that rests upon a vivid presentation of one situation; from beginning to end the attention is fastened upon the relations of Williams and the man who is first his patron and then his persecutor, Falkland, and, throughout, the action is based upon the unconfessed crime of the latter. The following comment in Godwin's preface shows how he himself valued the effect of such a structure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook on Story Writing When in 1910 I undertook the teaching Of the short-story to a class of undergraduates at Hunter College, I found a dearth of books on the theory of story writing. There were Poe's examples and his body Of criticism, from which help might be de duced; there was the pioneer Philosophy Of Pro fessor Matthews, and there were two or three texts whose chief value lay in their exposition Of the genre. After no great length of time a growing suspicion asserted itself that although my students could write unusually well, frequently with suggestion of charm and power, yet they were not always writing stories. They fell short Of modern narrative requirement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fashionable Philosophy and Other Sketches That railway travel is not, as a rule, conducive to serious thought, may fairly be inferred from the class of literature displayed on the bookstalls at the stations. I have therefore refrained from any attempt to excite the reflective faculties of the reader, excepting in the first and third of the accompanying sketches, and even in these have only ventured to suggest ideas, the full scope and pregnancy of which it must be left to his own idiosyncrasy to appreciate and develop, the more especially as they bear upon a certain current of investigation which has recently become popular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
