Book Synopsis Literary and Historical Miscellanies (Classic Reprint) by : George Bancroft
Download or read book Literary and Historical Miscellanies (Classic Reprint) written by George Bancroft and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literary and Historical Miscellanies The connexion between the mind and the body can never be explained. As yet, the first principles on which it depends, have not been discovered. Nature, in her mysterious operations, eludes the sagacity of the most careful observers. Her venerable form is con cealed by a veil, which no mortal has been permitted to raise. The first cause is that which hath been, which is, and which shall be, and which no man has compre hended. But we can notice the relation between one set of appearances and another, and may hope to be benefited by practical inductions from our Observations. By them we are led to regard the body, not merely as the temporary abode of the soul, but also as the instru ment by which knowledge is acquired and purposes executed. NO idea of the external world finds its way to the mind but through the senses; while the action of the internal organs excites the passions, modifies the operations of thought, and' imparts peculiarities to the moral nature.

Book Synopsis Making the Miscellany by : Megan Heffernan
Download or read book Making the Miscellany written by Megan Heffernan and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2021-03-05 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Making the Miscellany Megan Heffernan examines the poetic design of early modern printed books and explores how volumes of compiled poems, which have always existed in practice, responded to media change in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. Heffernan's focus is not only the material organization of printed poetry, but also how those conventions and innovations of arrangement contributed to vernacular poetic craft, the consolidation of ideals of individual authorship, and centuries of literary history. The arrangement of printed compilations contains a largely unstudied and undertheorized archive of poetic form, Heffernan argues. In an evolving system of textual transmission, compilers were experimenting with how to contain individual poems within larger volumes. By paying attention to how they navigated and shaped the exchanges between poems and their organization, she reveals how we can witness the basic power of imaginative writing over the material text. Making the Miscellany is also a study of how this history of textual design has been differently told by the distinct disciplines of bibliography or book history and literary studies, each of which has handled—and obscured—the formal qualities of early modern poetry compilations and the practices that produced them. Revisiting these editorial and critical approaches, this book recovers a moment when compilers, poets, and readers were alert to a poetics of organization that exceeded the limits of the individual poem.
Book Synopsis A Celtic Miscellany by : Kenneth Jackson
Download or read book A Celtic Miscellany written by Kenneth Jackson and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-04-27 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Including works from Welsh, Irish and Scottish Gaelic, Cornish, Breton and Manx, this Celtic Miscellany offers a rich blend of poetry and prose from the eighth to the nineteenth century, and provides a unique insight into the minds and literature of the Celtic people. It is a literature dominated by a deep sense of wonder, wild inventiveness and a profound sense of the uncanny, in which the natural world and the power of the individual spirit are celebrated with astonishing imaginative force. Skifully arranged by theme, from the hero-tales of Cú Chulainn, Bardic poetry and elegies, to the sensitive and intimate writings of early Celtic Christianity, this anthology provides a fascinating insight into a deeply creative literary tradition.
