 | | Gravity and Grace Essays for Roger Pearson (Legenda) von Charlie Louth, Patrick Mcguinness, Roger Pearson Hardcover, 240 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2019 von Legenda ISBN-13: 978-1-78188-787-5, ISBN: 1-78188-787-X "Gravity and grace are spiritual terms, but they can also offer us a way to think about literature. Grace may mean not only the felicity and ease - what Schiller refers to as the 'mobile beauty' - inhabiting certain works of art, but also the sense of something given, or about to be given, by a work as we read it: something incalculable, perhaps accidental, but vital and regenerative. Like a promise, this quality also needs gravity, a se ..." |

How do poets envisage their own role and function within society? How do we? Do poets seek to shape public opinion and behavior? Should they? Or do they offer alternatives--perhaps sacred alternatives--to political and religious ideologies? Are they what Shelley in 1821 called 'the unacknowledged legislators of the World'? And what might that mean?During the decades immediately preceding the Revolutio ..." |

A series of close readings demonstrate the intricate linguistic and formal play to be found in many of his major poems; and, in a detailed analysis of "Un coup de Dés," Pearson explores the "profound calculation" upon which Mallarmé's final, seemingly chaotic masterpiece is based." |

Its central theme is the relationship between novelist and reader, as orchestrated in Armance, Le Rouge et le Noir, Lucien Leuwen and La Chartreuse de Parme. From the author's analyses of these novels it emerges that Stendhal plays upon the reader's reactions and makes ..." |

 | | Candide and Other Stories (Everyman's Library Classics & Contemporary Classics) von Roger Pearson, Roger Voltaire/ Pearson, Francois M. Voltaire Hardcover, 376 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 1992 von Everyman's Library ISBN-13: 978-0-679-41746-0, ISBN: 0-679-41746-X " Candide is the story of a gentle man who, though pummeled and slapped in every direction by fate, clings desperately to the belief that he lives in "the best of all possible worlds." On the surface a witty, bantering tale, this eighteenth-century classic is actually a savage, satiric thrust at the philosophical optimism that proclaims that all disaster and human suffering is part of a benevolent cosmic plan. Fast, funny, often outrageo ..." |
