OCTOBER, 1825. Cambridge, 1825. Holmes is listed among the freshmen, on p. 17. With much curi ous data. College board was 1.75 a week, board in town has been of late from 2 to 3 a week, and the estimated expenses for the college year totalled 176. This was the first Harvard catalogue in I2mo form. ORDER OF PERFORMANCES FOR EXHIBITION, TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 1828. Leaflet, 4 pp. Cambridge, 1828. Hitherto unknown. Holmes appears as No. 7, An English Translation, from Sallust The Speech of Caius Memmius. A MS in Holmes hand is preserved in the Harvard archives photo stat with this. To date it has never been printed. Other speakers were William H. Channing, Edward H. Hedge, and Robert C. Winthrop. THE HARVARD REGISTER. 1827-1828. Cambridge, 1828. Copy formerly belonging to James H. Wilder, Holmes class mate, who has identified in pencil the bulk of the authors, and indi cates as Holmes the article Periodical Publications, at p. 76 May, 1827, signed W. H. If this identification is true, it is Holmes first published work, but in spite of the analogy of the sig nature with H. H. Edward Holyoke Hedge, it is certainly not true. Andrews Nortons copy, owned by H. V. Bail, attributes the article to William H. Brooks, 1827, as do four copies in the Har vard library, and the recently discovered wrappered copy of the May, 1827, issue belonging to John H. Warland, 1827. One of the Harvard copies attributes the poem at p, 27, Napoleons Depar ture to St, Helena, to Holmes, but the others unite in giving its author as John H Warland it is signed H. Various letters arc laid in concerning this publication, including four from P. K. Foky. In this collection only for historical purpose, since the above and other evidence proves that it has nothing by Holmes. 453 454 OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES LINES TO A YOUNG LADY. MS, without title, 4 x 3, three 6-line stanzas and one 4-line stanza. Support ing documents. Salem 1828. Earliest Holmes manuscript in private hands. Wholly unpub lished, and preceded in poetry only by his little-boy poem, in Abiels hand, in the E. J. Holmes papers, the Andover translation from Virgil, and perhaps the green bantling poem, q. v. The supporting documents tell the story. The poem was written for Marianne C. D. Silsbee maiden name not given as shown by a 1913 statement from a descendant. The date, 1828, comes from the envelope which enclosed them. They were written at Salem, where Holmes sometimes passed a part of the vacation with a married sister Mrs. Upham. With this is a charming a. l. s. and envelope of 1879 rom Holmes to Mrs. Silsbee, referring to early college days, my visits to Salem, etc. Marianne was then 14. The verses are undistinguished, but accurate, rhyming ab, ab, ce, a metre rarely used by Holmes. ORDER OF EXERCISES FOR COMMENCEMENT, 26 August 1829. 410 leaflet, 4 pp. Cambridge, 1829. Holmes is of course listed as one of those graduating and No. 9 is A Poem. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES, Cambridge A contempo rary hand has endorsed the length of each contribution, and its quality, from which we learn that the poem began at 1 2 152 and took eight minutes in delivery, and was ggR which high praise b given to only one of the other twenty-eight participants, The ex ercises began at 10 40 A. M., and continued without interval to 3 142 P. M, the informant notes. Again a MS in Holmes hand is preserved in the Harvard archives. It has never been printed...

Download or read book Frances Trollope written by Tamara Wagner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long overshadowed by her more widely read and reprinted son Anthony, Frances Trollope is almost exclusively remembered for her travel writing and especially for the notoriously controversial Domestic Manners of the Americans. Her impressively prolific career as a writer, however, covered and transgressed several genres, and spanned the early 1830s right through until the mid-1850s. A contemporary of Jane Austen, Trollope wrote social-problem novels about industrial England and satirical exposures of evangelical Christianity, as well as writing the first anti-slavery novel. She was a controversial, yet popular and prolific, writer who lived on her works, while using them to vent her outrage at various social and cultural developments of the time. A reassessment of her position in nineteenth-century literary culture brings to attention her own versatility as well as the various ways in which the pressing issues of the time could be represented and, in turn, helped to form Victorian literature. This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal Women's Writing.

Download or read book Thomas Hardy written by Thomas Hardy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Included in this edition are ten stories which were never collected into volumes during Hardy's lifetime. Some contain references to actual people, or plot elements that he reused elsewhere, and others, such as his stories for children, were simply too different from his other work in the short story form. Although all of these stories occupy significant positions within Hardy's career, none has previously received serious editorial treatment. For the most part they have been ignored, lightly passed over, or misinterpreted by critics and biographers. This edition remedies some of the deficiencies in Hardy scholarship, both in its historical introductions and in its critically edited texts, which are based on full collations of all editions published before Hardy's death and all surviving manuscripts, typescripts, and previously neglected proofs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Consequently, to fill the gaps within the correspondence, 542 editorial entries are chronologically interspersed for letters both by and to Melville for which no full text has been located but for which some evidence survives. These entries, like the editorial headnotes for the known letters, flesh out the specific historical and biographical contexts for the unlocated letters. Both supply Horth's full annotations, placing circumstances, persons, and allusions, from a wide range of documentary and scholarly sources, and drawing upon family archives of both Melville and his wife, including the recently recovered portion, now in the New York Public Library, of a trove preserved by his sister Augusta." "The aim of this edition, volume fourteen in the Northwestern-Newberry Edition of The Writings of Herman Melville, is to present a text as close to the author's intention at the time of inscription as his difficult handwriting or other surviving evidence permits. On this basis, the texts earlier presented in The Letters of Herman Melville (1960), edited by Merrell R. Davis and William H. Gilman, have been revised, with differences in almost every letter in spelling and punctuation, and some forty-five differences in wording. Fifty-two newly discovered letters by Melville, more than half of which are first published here, are added to those printed in the 1960 edition. This text of Correspondence is an Approved Text of the Committee on Scholarly Editions (Modern Language Association of America)."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. written by Susan-Mary Grant and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., was one of the most influential jurists of his time. From the antebellum era and the Civil War through the First World War and into the New Deal years, Holmes' long life and career as a Supreme Court Justice spanned an eventful period of American history, as the country went from an agrarian republic to an industrialized world power. In this concise, engaging book, Susan-Mary Grant puts Holmes' life in national context, exploring how he both shaped and reflected his changing country. She examines the impact of the Civil War on his life and his thinking, his role in key cases ranging from the issue of free speech in Schenck v. United States to the infamous ruling in favor of eugenics in Buck v. Bell, showing how behind Holmes’ reputation as a liberal justice lay a more complex approach to law that did not neatly align with political divisions. Including a selection of key primary documents, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. introduces students of U.S., Civil War, and legal history to a game-changing figure and his times.

Download or read book Hawthorne written by Brenda Wineapple and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-01-11 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handsome, reserved, almost frighteningly aloof until he was approached, then playful, cordial, Nathaniel Hawthorne was as mercurial and double-edged as his writing. “Deep as Dante,” Herman Melville said. Hawthorne himself declared that he was not “one of those supremely hospitable people who serve up their own hearts, delicately fried, with brain sauce, as a tidbit” for the public. Yet those who knew him best often took the opposite position. “He always puts himself in his books,” said his sister-in-law Mary Mann, “he cannot help it.” His life, like his work, was extraordinary, a play of light and shadow. In this major new biography of Hawthorne, the first in more than a decade, Brenda Wineapple, acclaimed biographer of Janet Flanner and Gertrude and Leo Stein (“Luminous”–Richard Howard), brings him brilliantly alive: an exquisite writer who shoveled dung in an attempt to found a new utopia at Brook Farm and then excoriated the community (or his attraction to it) in caustic satire; the confidant of Franklin Pierce, fourteenth president of the United States and arguably one of its worst; friend to Emerson and Thoreau and Melville who, unlike them, made fun of Abraham Lincoln and who, also unlike them, wrote compellingly of women, deeply identifying with them–he was the first major American writer to create erotic female characters. Those vibrant, independent women continue to haunt the imagination, although Hawthorne often punishes, humiliates, or kills them, as if exorcising that which enthralls. Here is the man rooted in Salem, Massachusetts, of an old pre-Revolutionary family, reared partly in the wilds of western Maine, then schooled along with Longfellow at Bowdoin College. Here are his idyllic marriage to the youngest and prettiest of the Peabody sisters and his longtime friendships, including with Margaret Fuller, the notorious feminist writer and intellectual. Here too is Hawthorne at the end of his days, revered as a genius, but considered as well to be an embarrassing puzzle by the Boston intelligentsia, isolated by fiercely held political loyalties that placed him against the Civil War and the currents of his time. Brenda Wineapple navigates the high tides and chill undercurrents of Hawthorne’s fascinating life and work with clarity, nuance, and insight. The novels and tales, the incidental writings, travel notes and children’s books, letters and diaries reverberate in this biography, which both charts and protects the dark unknowable core that is quintessentially Hawthorne. In him, the quest of his generation for an authentically American voice bears disquieting fruit.

Book excerpt: '...a beautiful wrought study that belongs in every good library'. Publishers' Weekly '...remains a major contribution to Hardy studies' - Charles Osborne, Sunday Telegraph Originally published in 1971 and now for the first time reprinted, Thomas Hardy: His Career as a Novelist has long been recognized as a major - and exceptionally well-written - work of Hardy criticism that also set new standards for Hardy scholarship. A recent survey refers to it as 'one of the most permanently useful' of Hardy studies, characterized by an 'admirably clear, unpretentious style'. Although the central chapters are predominantly critical, offering independent readings of each of the novels (including those customarily considered 'minor'), those readings are developed within the context of available knowledge of Hardy's personal and intellectual backgrounds, his friendships and family relationships, and his evolution as a professional writer. Extensive use is made of Hardy's own manuscripts, notebooks, nd letters and of the correspondence and reminiscences of those who knew him, and in a new preface Michael Millgate speaks of having sought to resolve 'the standard work/life dichotomy' by pursuing 'the unitary conception of a career'.
