Paperback. Condición: Very Good. 364 pages. Friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship--so wrote Cole Porter for th e musical DuBarry Was A Lady--a song and a sentiment we all can harmonize with. We all have friends, and if some writers have been more than a bit cynical--Emer son thought that friendship resembled the immortality of the soul in that it is too good to be true, and Schopenhauer compared friendship to a sea serpent, no o ne knows whether they are fabulous or really exist somewhere--for the most part the world's literature and our own experience are filled with fine examples. In The Oxford Book of Friendship, one of England's best known poets, D.J. Enright, and David Rawlinson have brought together some of the world's best thoughts on f riendship, found in excerpts from Shakespeare and the Bible, novels and poems, a utobiographies, letters, and diaries, even personal ads from The New York Review of Books (Handsome NYC poet emeritus, 59, seeks beautiful, bright, non-smoking woman. Dutch treat, naturally). Here is friendship in all shapes and sizes: from the Bible and classical literature (David and Jonathan, Ruth and Naomi, Orestes and Pylades, Damon and Pythias), among literary figures (Goethe and Schiller, L amb and Coleridge, Elizabeth Bishop and Marianne Moore), even among animals (the friendship of Mole and Badger for Toad in The Wind in the Willows). There are i nterracial friendships (Queequeg and Ishmael, Huck Finn and Jim), friendships fo rmed in concentration camps, young friends (Steerforth and David Copperfield), e ven the friendship we have for our pets. Thomas Mann, in A Man and his Dog, writ es of his dog Bashan--Extraordinary creature! So close a friend, and yet so remo te--and Alexander Pope, in his last known couplet, mourns the death of his pet B.…
