The Heart of Life, Vol. 3 of 3 (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from The Heart of Life, Vol. 3 of 3 Dulverton House, though it would have been petty in Florence or Pisa, was yet a palace, as London houses go. The entrance-hall had a row of very respectable pillars, and caught the eye with a number of busts and bronzes; while to-night a long line of servants, majestic with powder and shoulder-knots, gave it an air of festival to which it had been long a stranger. The guests were received upstairs, in a brilliantly lighted gallery, which was hung with magnificent pictures, was floored with shining parquet, and was furnished with nothing but a number of gold chairs.

Book Description

Excerpt from A Life's Morning, Vol. 3 of 3 Emily fell back into thought; this great fear allayed, the past continued to rebuild itself within her mind. And now, only now, like an angel coming from afar over dark waters, there gleamed the image of her love. It had been expelled from memory by the all-possessing woe of those last hours; it returned like a soothing warmth, an assuage ment of pain. As though soul-easing music sounded about her, she again lost her hold on outward things and sank into a natural sleep.

Paper Empires, 1946-2005


Book Description

Annotation " ... It is highly recommended to anyone who thinks they have a serious interest in the book ... or would like to discover to discover something of the complexity of the well-springs of the Australian psyche." Biblionews Paper Empires explores Australian book production and consumption from 1946 to the present day, using wide-ranging research, oral history and memoir to explore the worlds of book publishing, selling and reading. After 1945, Australian publishing went from a handful of fledgling businesses to the billion dollar industry of today with thousands of new titles each year and a vast array of imported books. Publishing's postwar expansion began with the baby boom and the increased demand for school texts, with independent houses blossoming during the 1960s and 70s followed by the current era dominated by global conglomerates.




Thornton Wilder, Classical Reception, and American Literature


Book Description

This book delineates how Thornton Wilder (1897–1975), a learned playwright and novelist, embeds himself within the classical tradition, integrating Greek and Roman motifs with a wide range of sources to produce heart-breaking masterpieces such as Our Town and comedy sensations such as Dolly Levi. Through this study of archival sources and close reading, readers will understand Wilder’s avant-garde staging and innovative time sequences not as a break with the past, but as a response to the classics. The author traces the genesis of unforgettable characters like Dolly Levi in The Matchmaker, Emily Webb in Our Town, and George Antrobus in The Skin of Our Teeth. Vergil’s expression, "Here are the tears of the world, and human matters touch the heart" haunts Wilder’s oeuvre. Understanding Vergil’s phrase as "tears for the beauty of the world," Wilder utilizes scenes depicting the beauty of the world and the sorrow when individuals recognize this too late. Wilder exhorts us to observe lovingly, alert to the wonder of the everyday. This work will appeal to actors and directors, professors and students in classics and in American literature, those fascinated by modern drama and performance studies, and non-specialists, theatre-goers, and readers in the general public.
