Book Synopsis The Yellow Bittern, and Other Plays (Classic Reprint) by : Daniel Corkery
Download or read book The Yellow Bittern, and Other Plays (Classic Reprint) written by Daniel Corkery and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Yellow Bittern, and Other Plays The modern stage direction, the descriptive stage direction (the phrase is a contradiction in terms), as it is called, is it worth while? For some reviewers, if we are to believe them, these page-long "directions" make a drama as interesting as a novel: one thinks of the sun being brought at last to shine like the moon! For others they create atmosphere. But Maeterlinck knows a way of doing so that is far more effective, and so did Shakespeare: - "This castle hath a pleasant seat; the air Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself Unto our gentle senses - " Here place and feeling are important things, but the most important thing is that it is Duncan who speaks in this way of Macbeth's castle, while in the passage: - "Light thickens and the crow Makes wing to the rooky wood - " the most important thing is that it is Macbeth who speaks.

Book Synopsis The Letters of Seamus Heaney by : Seamus Heaney
Download or read book The Letters of Seamus Heaney written by Seamus Heaney and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The letters provide us with an intimate, multilayered understanding of this extraordinary poet’s life and mind. Every now and again I need to get down here, to get into the Diogenes tub, as it were, or the Colmcille beehive hut, or the Mossbawn scullery. At any rate, a hedge surrounds me, the blackbird calls, the soul settles for an hour or two. In this astute selection from Seamus Heaney’s vast correspondence, we are given direct access to the life and poetic development of a literary titan, from his early days in Belfast, through his controversial decision to settle in the Republic, to the gradual broadening of horizons that culminated in the award of the Nobel Prize in Literature and the years of international eminence that kept him heroically busy until his death. Christopher Reid draws from both public and private archives to reveal this remarkable story in the poet’s own words. Generous, funny, exuberant, confiding, irreverent, empathetic, and deeply thoughtful, The Letters of Seamus Heaney encompasses decades-long relationships with friends and colleagues, as well as an unstinted responsiveness to passing acquaintances. Heaney’s mastery of language is as evident here as it is in any of his writings; listening to his voice we find ourselves in the same room as a man whose presence enriched the world and whose legacy deepens our sense of what truly matters.

Download or read book Placemaker written by Christie Purifoy and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Placemaker is a call to tend our souls, our land, and our homes--to cultivate comfort, beauty, and peace in the places God has us. Images of comfortable kitchens and flower-filled gardens stir something deep within us--we instinctively long for home. In a world of chaos and conflict, we want a place of comfort and peace. In Placemaker, Christie Purifoy invites us to notice our soul's desire for beauty, our need to create and to be created again and again. As she reflects on the joys and sorrows of two decades as a placemaker and her recent years living in and restoring a Pennsylvania farmhouse, Christie shows us that we are all gardeners. No matter our vocation, we spend much of our lives tending, keeping, and caring. In each act of creation, we reflect the image of God. In each moment of making beauty, we realize that beauty is a mystery to receive. Weaving together her family's journey with stories of botanical marvels and the histories of the flawed yet inspiring placemakers who shaped the land generations ago, Christie calls us to cultivate orchards and communities, to clap our hands along with the trees of the fields, to step into our calling to create, to make a place in the place God made for us. Placemaker is a timely yet timeless reminder that the cultivation of good and beautiful places is not a retreat from the real world but a holy pursuit of a world that is more real than we know.

Book Synopsis Jan Brueghel the Elder by : Arianne Faber Kolb
Download or read book Jan Brueghel the Elder written by Arianne Faber Kolb and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kolb has produced a thoroughly researched essay on this painting, which is in the Getty Museum. The study focuses on Brueghel's depiction of nature, especially his exacting representation of identifiable species of animals and birds, the names of which are listed. Brueghel's collaboration with other painters, his and other painters' re-use of the same theme and composition, and the history and practice of natural history collection and representation are central themes. The volume, which is printed in a horizontal format (it's 11x8") and heavily illustrated, is written for a general audience, though art historians will also find much of interest.
