Book Description
Excerpt from Donald Stephenson's Reminiscences: A True Story Rev. Don'ald stephenson and the writer of this story have long been friends. But just why it was needful for Donald to employ an amanuensis may not be stated. But this the writer will say, that when solicited to engage in his service, consent was given only on the condition he would make it clear that his motives in publishing his reminiscences were righteous. It is a bargain-then, said Donald, for I assure you my hope is to do good to some poor fellow coming after me, who reading my story may shun the mistakes I made, and so not only escape the hard ships that beset my way, but make a better use of life and its opportunities. And, moreover, I will have nothing set down in malice, or with the remotest desire of doing injury to any one. And where faithfulness to truth may reflect on the ways of some, I will be careful to make such changes in names as will render it impossible for the reader to know the real actors. But the names of others whose words and deeds were to their honor, I will generally give you in full. And if imagination aids a little in the revival of early circumstances, I will suppress it in recalling those of my ministerial career and have nothing set down but what is substantially true. I hope, moreover, that my candidating troubles may show the importance of providing better ways of bringing pastors and churches together than those in vogue. The story, indeed, will discover many things that are not to my credit, but while I regret this, I will not mar a true narrative by hiding my follies and shielding myself.

The Irish Voice in America
Author: Charles FanningPublisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813184061
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 700
Book Description
In this study, Charles Fanning has written the first general account of the origins and development of a literary tradition among American writers of Irish birth or background who have explored the Irish immigrant or ethnic experience in works of fiction. The result is a portrait of the evolving fictional self-consciousness of an immigrant group over a span of 250 years. Fanning traces the roots of Irish-American writing back to the eighteenth century and carries it forward through the traumatic years of the Famine to the present time with an intensely productive period in the twentieth century beginning with James T. Farrell. Later writers treated in depth include Edwin O'Connor, Elizabeth Cullinan, Maureen Howard, and William Kennedy. Along the way he places in the historical record many all but forgotten writers, including the prolific Mary Ann Sadlier. The Irish Voice in America is not only a highly readable contribution to American literary history but also a valuable reference to many writers and their works. For this second edition, Fanning has added a chapter that covers the fiction of the past decade. He argues that contemporary writers continue to draw on Ireland as a source and are important chroniclers of the modern American experience.
