Book Synopsis A City Laid Waste by : William Gilmore Simms
Download or read book A City Laid Waste written by William Gilmore Simms and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A graphic account of the horrors, the brutality and sometimes wanton destruction of warfare, particularly of civil war.” —Charleston (SC) Post and Courier In the first reissue of these documents since 1865, A City Laid Waste captures in riveting detail the destruction of South Carolina’s capital city. William Gilmore Simms (1806-1870), a native South Carolinian and one of the nation’s foremost men of letters, was in Columbia and witnessed firsthand the city’s capture and destruction. A renowned novelist and poet, who was also an experienced journalist and historian, Simms deftly recorded the events of February 1865 in a series of eyewitness accounts published in the first ten issues of the Columbia Phoenix and reprinted here. His record of burned buildings constitutes the most authoritative information available on the extent of the damage. Simms historian David Aiken provides a historical and literary context for Simms’s reportage. In his introduction Aiken clarifies the significance of Simms’s articles and draws attention to factors most important for understanding the occupation’s impact on the city of Columbia. “A shrewd viewer of the war scene in Columbia, famed Southern writer William Gilmore Simms published stinging, courageous exposés of the doings of the Northern forces, even when threatened with arrest. The restoration of his candid firsthand accounts of the destruction wrought by Sherman’s forces against the South Carolina capitol and its inhabitants is a great service to all who study and appreciate Southern history and literature.” —James Everett Kibler, author of Our Fathers’ Fields
Download or read book Laid Waste written by Julia Gfrörer and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2016-11-02 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a plague-ravaged medieval city, survival is a harsher fate than death. As corpses accumulate around her, Agnes, a young widow possessed of supernatural strength, must weigh her obligations to the dead and dying against her desire to protect what little remains. Laid Waste is a graphic novella about love and kindness among vermin in the putrid miasma at the end of the world. As with her evocative debut book, Black is the Color, Julia Gfrörer's delicate, gothic drawing style perfectly complements the period era of the book’s setting, bringing the lyricism and romanticism of her prose to the fore.

BDB's exhaustive coverage of Old Testament Hebrew words, as well as its unparalleled usage of cognate languages and the wealth of background sources consulted and quoted, render BDB and invaluable resource for all students of the Bible.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Chaucer by : Suzanne Conklin Akbari
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Chaucer written by Suzanne Conklin Akbari and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-05-07 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the 'father' of the English literary canon, one of a very few writers to appear in every 'great books' syllabus, Chaucer is seen as an author whose works are fundamentally timeless: an author who, like Shakespeare, exemplifies the almost magical power of poetry to appeal to each generation of readers. Every age remakes its own Chaucer, developing new understandings of how his poetry intersects with contemporary ways of seeing the world, and the place of the subject who lives in it. This Handbook comprises a series of essays by established scholars and emerging voices that address Chaucer's poetry in the context of several disciplines, including late medieval philosophy and science, Mediterranean Studies, comparative literature, vernacular theology, and popular devotion. The volume paints the field in broad strokes and sections include Biography and Circumstances of Daily Life; Chaucer in the European Frame; Philosophy and Science in the Universities; Christian Doctrine and Religious Heterodoxy; and the Chaucerian Afterlife. Taken as a whole, The Oxford Handbook of Chaucer offers a snapshot of the current state of the field, and a bold suggestion of the trajectories along which Chaucer studies are likely to develop in the future.
