Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of Rufus Choate The first four or five years of his practice was in Danvers, which he twice represented, meanwhile, in the State Legis lature. It should be recorded, however, for the benefit of such as need such a record, that the early success of Rufus Choate in law business was not such as tended very strongly to his encouragement and, during the first two or three years of his practice, it was not unfrequently a subject of serious debate with him whether he had not mistaken his calling, and whether he would not better relinquish his profession, and apply himself to some other occupation. He persevered, however, and at length his great diligence and fidelity, joined with the fame of his eloquence and skill, were rewarded with a full share of business. A most important professional trait of Mr. Choate developed itself in the very early stages of his practice - a trait which proved a permanent character istic throughout his whole brilliant career, and which, doubt less, conduced materially to his distinguished success. We allude here to his marvelous faithfulness to any and every cause which he undertook to manage and defend and that, too, irrespective utterly of its importance or otherwise, or of any recompense or lack of recompense. Before a justice of the peace, in an office not larger than a shoemaker's shop, in defense of some petty offender, he poured forth the same wealth of words and illustrations, of humor and wit, and, in its measure, of learning and argument which, afterward, de lighted the Supreme Court and Senate. Indeed, through out his life, he never reserved his brilliant arguments for a suitable audience. He early made it a rule, for the sake of' increasing his power as an advocate, to argue, at full length, every case he tried, and do his best on every occasion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of Rufus Choate The "Home College Series" will contain one hundred short papers on a wide range of subject - biographical, historical, scientific, literary, domestic, political, and religious. Indeed, the religious tone will characterize all of them. They are written for every body - for all whose leisure is limited, but who desire to use the minutes for the enrichment of life. These papers contain seeds from the best gardens in all the world of human knowledge, and if dropped wisely into good soil, will bring forth harvests of beauty and value. They are for the young - especially for young people (and older people, too) who are out of the schools, who are full of business and cares, who are in danger of reading nothing, or of reading a sensational literature that is worse than nothing. One of these papers a week read over and over, thought and talked about at "odd times," will give in one year a vast fund of information, an intellectual quickening, worth even more than the mere knowledge acquired, a taste for solid reading, many hours of simple and wholesome pleasure, and ability to talk intelligently and helpfully to one's friends. Pastors may organize "Home College" classes, or "Lyceum Reading Unions," or "Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circles," and help the young people to read and think and talk and live to worthier purpose. A young man may have his own little "college" all by himself, rend this series of tracts one after the other, (there will soon be one hundred of them ready,) examine himself on them by the "Thought-Outline to Help the Memory," and thus gain knowledge, and, what is better, a love of knowledge. And what a young man may do in this respect, a young woman, and both old men and old women, may do. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Secrets as Narrative Form: Storytelling in Nineteenth-Century America examines the interplay between the familiar and the forgotten in tales of America's first century as a nation. By studying both the common concerns and the rising tensions between the known and the unknown, the told and the untold, this book offers readers new insight into the making of a nation through stories. Here, identity is built not so much through the winnowing competition of perspectives as through the cumulative layering of stories, derived from sources as diverse as rumors circulating in early patriot newspapers and the highest achievements of aesthetic culture. And yet this is not a source study: the interaction of texts is reciprocal, and the texts studied are not simply complementary but often jarring in their interrelations. The result is a new model of just how some of America's central episodes of self-definition -- the Puritan legacy, the Revolutionary War, and the Western frontier -- have achieved near mythic force in the national imagination. The most powerful myths of national identity, this author argues, are not those that erase historical facts but those able to transform such facts into their own deep resources. Book jacket.

Download or read book Rethinking Uncle Tom written by William B. Allen and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2009-03-16 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generally critics and interpreters of Uncle Tom have constructed a one-way view of Uncle Tom, albeit offering a few kind words for Uncle Tom along the way. Recovering Uncle Tom requires re-telling his story. This book delivers on that mission, while accomplishing something no other work on Harriet Beecher Stowe has fully attempted: an in-depth statement of her political thought. Heroeuvre, in partnership with that of her husband Calvin, constitutes a demonstration of the permanent necessity of moral and prudential judgment in human affairs. Moreover, it identifies the political conditions that can best guarantee conditions of decency. Her two disciplinesDphilosophy and poetryDilluminate the founding principles of the American republic and remedy defects in their realization that were evident in mid-nineteenth century. While slavery is not the only defect, its persistence and expansion indicate the overall shortcomings. In four of her chief works (Uncle Tom's Cabin,Sunny Memories of Foreign Lands,Dred, andOldtown Folks), Stowe teaches not only how to eliminate the defect of slavery, but also how to realize and maintain a regime founded on the basis of natural rights and Christianity. Further, she identifies the proper vehicle for educating citizens so they might reliably be ruled by decent public opinion. Book one, part one of Rethinking Uncle Tom explains Uncle Tom's Cabin within the context of the Stowes' joint project, an articulation of the conditions of democratic life and the appropriate nature of modern humanism. Book two, parts one and two, analyses how key elements of Calvin's thinking were conveyed by Stowe's works, while distinguishing her thought from his, and examines the importance of her 'political geography' and the breadth of her thinking on cultural, moral, and political matters. Parts three and four investigate the most mature elements of Stowe's political thought, providing a close reading of Sunny MemoriesDrevealing the full political purpose of that work, discerned through mastery of its complex symbolismDand of Oldtown Folks, which completes the development of Stowe's political thought by assessing three alternative regimes and by presenting a vision of anutopia: the ultimate life of decency and order which is proof against false dreams of rationalized life. Rethinking Uncle Tom provides readers both better familiarity with the moral discourse of abolition and nineteenth-century reformism, and, more importantly, a glimpse of an America envisioned as producing that nobility of soul that Uncle Tom represented, the human model of surpassing excellence.
