Book excerpt: ""I wist not what to wish, yet sure thought I, If so much excellence abide below, How excellent is he that dwells on high? Whose power and beauty by his works we know. Sure he is goodness, wisdom, glory, light, That hath this under world so richly dight. More Heaven than Earth was here, no winter and no night." Anne Bradstreet, Contemplations. Anne Bradstreet came to fame when someone published her poetry as The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America. Anne Bradstreet was a Puritan who had crossed the ocean to help found the new colony in America. She lived on the frontier and lived a fairly uneventful life loving her husband and children. However, she was also a well-educated and imaginative woman whose poetry continues to be admired to this day. This collection of her poems is a forgotten classic that we would be well advised to read. "A real sense of calm pervades [Bradstreet's] poetry. She has genuine affection for the things she writes about, whether that be family, or the vistas of nature, or her husband, or the "pleasant things" lost in the house fire, and so in no way does she come across as a pinched ascetic. But neither does she come across as someone who is in frantic pursuit of worldly goods." From Douglas Wilson's Introduction"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How long would you wait for the one you loved? Professor James Wentworth has a paranormal secret. He lives quietly in Salem, Massachusetts, making few ties with anyone. One night his private world is turned upside down when he meets Sarah Alexander, a dead ringer for his wife, Elizabeth. Though it has been years since Elizabeth’s death, James cannot move on. Sarah also has a secret. She is haunted by nightmares, and every night she is awakened by terrifying visions of hangings, being arrested, and dying in jail–scenes from the Salem Witch Trials in 1692. As James comes to terms with his feelings for Sarah, he must also dodge accusations from a reporter desperate to prove that James is not who, or what, he seems to be. Soon James and Sarah discover a mystery that may bind them in ways they never imagined. Will James make the ultimate sacrifice to protect Sarah and prevent a new hunt from bringing hysteria to Salem again? Part romance, part historical fiction, part paranormal fantasy, Her Dear & Loving Husband is a story for anyone who believes that true love never dies.

Book Synopsis Early American Poetry by : Jane Donahue Eberwein
Download or read book Early American Poetry written by Jane Donahue Eberwein and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1978-07-21 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the first major-figure anthology of American poetry of the colonial and early national periods, an indispensable volume for both students and scholars of American literature and civilization. Five major literary figures are spotlighted: Anne Bradstreet (1612-1672), Edward Taylor (1642?"-1729), Timothy Dwight (1752-1817), Philip Freneau (1752-1832), and William Cullen Bryant (1794-1878). An introduction to each chapter summarizes the life of the poet, reviews his or her literary career, describes and evaluates artistic achievement, and places the poet in an intellectual context. The writer's relationship to changing religious, philosophical, political, and cultural patters is established. The contemporary perspective is augmented by the inclusion of an appendix which presents three important poems by other writers: Micheal Wigglesworth's "God's Controversy with New England," Ebenezer Cook's The Sot-Weed Factor, and Joel Barlow's "Hasty Pudding." Eberwein goes beyond the most popular and familiar works to include those of unrecognized literary merit, presenting a thoroughly unique approach which illuminates the full range of the writers' themes, forms and poetic voices.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like other true poets, Anne Bradstreet enlivened the conventions she received, transforming them into a unique and vigorous instrument. But she did not use that instrument for small or temporary ends. Her work is very much a whole. This study aims to look at the whole body of her poetry as she encountered prevailing literary forms and fashioned them into a personal voice for an ever deepening argument between the world she knew and the promise of a greater world to come. - Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies Anne Bradstreet’s quest for spiritual solace during times of hardships after she and her family fled from England to North America. During those adversities, Bradstreet questioned her faith. In all the poems subject of this book Bradstreet’s inner struggle between her flesh and spirit can obviously be seen. Bradstreet uses her talent in poetry writing as a means to express her deepest thoughts and fears hoping to find the peace and comfort she needs. Bradstreet was able to get over all those shattering hardships and emerge a better person believing even more strongly than ever that God will reward her patience in the afterlife with better and heavenly blessings. Before her death, the constant disturbing struggle between her flesh and spirit is replaced by serenity and longing for heaven.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anne Bradstreet was born in 1612 in Northampton, England. Her parents position allowed them to educate Anne across many subjects which was unusual for its day. In her teens she contracted smallpox which was to undermine her health in later years. She married Simon at the age of sixteen. They, along with her parents, emigrated to America with other Puritans in 1630 arriving on June 14th in Massachusetts. They moved south to Charlestown almost immediately to find better conditions. After a short stay they moved yet further south to help found the 'City on the Hill' Boston. By 1632 they had moved once more, this time to Cambridge, Massachusetts where Anne gave birth to her first child, Samuel. The family was instrumental in setting up Harvard University in 1636 but by the early 1640's pregnant with her sixth child they moved for the sixth time to Andover Parish. In all Anne bore eight children although her health was always weak. She did however write some beautiful poetry and in 1650, the Rev. John Woodbridge had her collection of verse; The Tenth Muse Lately Sprung Up in America composed by "A Gentlewoman from Those Parts" published in London, making Anne the first female poet ever published in both England and the New World. On July 10, 1666, their North Andover family home burned down to leave them homeless. Tragically her own personal library of some 800 books was also lost in the flames. By now, Anne's health was slowly failing. She suffered from tuberculosis and had to deal with the loss of cherished relatives. But her will remained strong and faith in God undiminished. Anne Bradstreet died on September 16, 1672 in North Andover, Massachusetts at the age of 60. We are pleased to present here works from her earlier years. These are quaternions, epic poems of four parts each.
Book Synopsis The Great War, The Waste Land and the Modernist Long Poem by : Oliver Tearle
Download or read book The Great War, The Waste Land and the Modernist Long Poem written by Oliver Tearle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great War, The Waste Land and the Modernist Long Poem explores how cultural responses to the trauma of the First World War found expression in the form of the modernist long poem. Beginning with T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, Oliver Tearle reads that most famous example of the genre in comparison with lesser known long poems, such as Hope Mirrlees's Paris: A Poem, Richard Aldington's A Fool I' the Forest and Nancy Cunard's Parallax. As well as presenting a new history of this neglected genre, the book examines the ways in which the modernist long poem represented the seminal literary form for grappling with the crises of European modernity in the wake of World War I.
