Añadir al carritoCondición: Sehr gut. XII, 383 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Rubbed jacket, slightly discolored binding, sticker and pencil annotation on endpaper, slight staining on bottom edge, otherwise good and clean. / Beriebener Umsch…lag, leicht verfärbter Einband, Sticker und Bleistiftanmerkung auf Vorsatzblatt, leichte Anschmutzung auf Fußschnitt, sonst gut und sauber. - Such uninhibited scribblers as Samuel Pepys and Henry Miller, such modern Ishmaelites, wanderers through worlds of mind and matter, as Joyce and Hemingway, such enigmatic figures as Salvador Dali, Erik Satie, and the yogi Param-hansa Yoganandathese and other equally striking personalities come under consideration in Dr. Highets new collection of essays about literature, language, and life. Gilbert Highet, scholar and gentleman, loves reading and remembers nearly everything he reads. He also likes to share with others his adventures and discoveries. Of the forty essays in this volumesome serious, some fanciful, some witty and criticalmore than half are devoted to people. With keen insight, Dr. Highet penetrates the writings and careers of these highly untypical characters, disclosing many of their innermost motives, often unknown to others and sometimes even to themselves. The powers and charms of forgotten booksbooks which time has obscured although they were successful in their dayare revived by Dr. Highet elsewhere in this collection. One of these is Edmund Gosses account of his weirdly eccentric childhood and his long struggle to break away from his pious and narrow-minded father; and another is the diary of Marjory Fleming, a little Scottish girl who died before she was nine, but whose comic and winning character still lives on in her misspelled pages. Other essays deal with that elusive and complicated phenomenon, language: the secret languages which have been used in the English-speaking world, the silent language of gesture and conduct, the peculiar forces that invade and alter speech, the hidden significance of names. The art of writing receives several amusing thrusts: Sense and Nonsense, Useless Speeches, The Ancient Mariners Association, Inc., even How to Torture an Author. In a study of State songs, Dr. Highet scrutinizes a proposed official hymn for New York State, and offers some memorably gruesome excerpts from the anthems of other States. Explorations is Gilbert Highets fifth volume of essays, of which the first, People, Places, and Books, has continued to find new readers for eighteen years. The others are A Clerk of Oxenford, Talents and Geniuses, and The Powers of Poetry. - Gilbert Highet is Anthon Professor of the Latin Language and Literature at Columbia University, where he has taught for more than a generation. He has received the degree of D. Litt, from Glasgow University and from Oxford University, where he also taught. Dr. Highet is the author of a number of scholarly books: The Classical Tradition: Greek and Roman Influences on Western Literature; Juvenal the Satirist, acknowledged to be the authoritative work on this difficult poet; Poets in a Landscape, awarded the enit Prize by the Italian Government; and The Anatomy of Satire, for which he received the Award of Merit of the American Philological Association. He has contributed at length to both the first and the second editions of The Oxford Classical Dictionary, and a number of his English versions of Greek poetry appear in The Oxford Book of Verse in Translation. He is Chairman of the Editorial Advisory Board of Horizon magazine; he has been a member of the Board of Judges of the Book-of-the-Month Club since 1954, and he is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature.
