Excerpt from Confessions of a Book-Lover Part of the present volume appeared in Great Thoughts. Yet here am I, whose name is associated - ii at all - in the memory of readers with 'little thoughts, ' and with booklets impudent in the slenderness of their matter, presumptuously stand ing forth to bow the public into the writer's presence, and essaying to introduce the one to the other. The necessary explanation shall be brief. I must have been a young man, and Mr. E. Walter Walters a boy, when he and I last met; indeed I am not sure that I altogether remember him. But his father, who bore an honoured name, I well remember. The Rev. W. D. Walters and my own dear and honoured father were personal friends; and when the former's son sent me a manuscript of a book, with the request that I should write an introduction, how could I do otherwise than accede, and express myself honoured by the invitation?

Dear little book, what shall I say about thee? Belated offspring of mine, out of print for twenty years, what shall I say in praise of thee? For twenty years I have only seen thee in French, and in this English text thou comest to me like an old love, at once a surprise and a recollection. Dear little book, I would say nothing about thee if I could help it, but a publisher pleads, and "No" is a churlish word. So for him I will say that I like thy prattle; that while travelling in a railway carriage on my way to the country of "Esther Waters," I passed my station by, and had to hire a carriage and drive across the downs.

Excerpt from Living Too Fast: Or, the Confessions of a Bank Officer The story contained in this volume records the experience of a bank officer, living too fast, in the downward career of crime. The writer is entirely willing now to believe that this career ought to have ended in the state prison but his work is a story, and he has chosen - perhaps unhappily - to punish the defaulter/in another way. Yet running through the narrative for the sake of the con trast, is the experience of a less showy, but more honest young man than the principal character, who represents the true life the young business man ought to lead. The author is not afraid that any of his young friends who may read this book will be tempted into an irregularity by the example of the delinquent bank officer, for it will be found that his career of crime is full of re.

Without Rhyme Or Reason written by Marvin Richards and has been published by Bucknell University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1998 with Literary Criticism categories.

On 29 April 1841, a week after his thirty-fourth birthday, Louis (Aloysius) Bertrand died of tuberculosis. This malady, his destitute poverty, and his errant existence qualify him as a quintessential poete maudit, whose one great work, Gaspard de la Nuit: Fantasies a la maniere de Rembrandt et de Callot, was not published until 1842. Now widely considered as the first collection of prose poems to appear in France, Gaspard inspired writers like Baudelaire, Mallarme, Huysmans, and Andre Breton. This study offers a rereading of Bertrand's book grounded in modern critical theory, including the work of Derrida, Bakhtin, Barbara Johnson, Genette, Lacoue-Labarthe, and Nancy. It elaborates a new perspective on a work that contains all the paradoxes of the genre, with which theorists still struggle.

"Celebrated now and during his lifetime as a wit and aesthete, Oscar Wilde was also a talented classicist whose writings evince an enduring fascination with Graeco-Roman antiquity. This volume explores the impact of the classical world on his life and work, offering new perspectives on canonical texts and close analyses of unpublished material."--
