Book Description
This book is written by an Everyman, a person who has traveled through the ups and downs of life, with his eyes wide open and his heart exposed. The eyes have seen too much. The heart has taken a few hits. It started with a poem. One poem reflecting a single thought. Then a second and a third and a fourth. The poems span a period and, in themselves, have become a reflection of the writer, me. The observations are not so unusual. It is unusual, however, I guess, to maintain a printed word of the journey.

Reflections Rhyme and Reason
Author: Omar H. Malik
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1524631701
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This book is a sequel to the authors well-received first publication, Reflections: Mirror of My Mind. In this book, he continues his exploration of the purity, serenity, and tranquility of nature that, over the years, has been in slow decline due to sustained human intervention and its insatiable drive for prosperity. With the poems Four Seasons, Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter, the author beautifully captures the changing faces of nature through the seasons. Within this theme, the simplicity, purity, and joy of nature are also encapsulated in poems such as Bluebells, Birdsong, Daffodil, and Daybreak. Taking a more critical but no less engaging perspective, the overwhelming influence of machines in modern society is explored in Man and Machine, while such issues as overpopulation and pollution are evaluated in Essence of Creation and Ocean. Furthermore, the author gives us his insight into the duality of perception, conception, reason, and volition in skillfully crafted Dual Core. These are but a glimpse of the many thought-provoking poems in this book, which, like anything of value, should be revisited and savoured to be truly appreciated.

Sino-Japanese Reflections
Author: Joshua A. Fogel
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110776928
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 331
Book Description
Sino-Japanese Reflections offers ten richly detailed case studies that examine various forms of cultural and literary interaction between Japanese and Chinese intellectuals from the late Ming to the early twentieth century. The authors consider efforts by early modern scholars on each side of the Yellow Sea to understand the language and culture of the other, to draw upon received texts and forms, and to contribute to shared literary practices. Whereas literary and cultural flow within the Sinosphere is sometimes imagined to be an entirely unidirectional process of textual dissemination from China to the periphery, the contributions to this volume reveal a more complex picture: highlighting how literary and cultural engagement was always an opportunity for creative adaptation and negotiation. Examining materials such as Chinese translations of Japanese vernacular poetry, Japanese engagements with Chinese supernatural stories, adaptations of Japanese historical tales into vernacular Chinese, Sinitic poetry composed in Japan, and Japanese Sinology, the volume brings together recent work by literary scholars and intellectual historians of multiple generations, all of whom have a strong comparative interest in Sino-Japanese studies.

Critical Reflections on Poetry and Painting (2 vols.)
Author: Jean-Baptiste Du Bos
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004465944
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 837
Book Description
Jean-Baptiste Du Bos’ Critical Reflections on Poetry and Painting, first published in French in 1719, is one of the seminal works of modern aesthetics. Du Bos rejected the seventeenth-century view that works of art are assessed by reason. Instead, he believed, audience members have sentiments in response to artworks. Their sentiments are fainter versions of those they would feel in response to actually seeing what the work of art imitates. Du Bos was influenced by John Locke’s empiricism and, in turn, had a major impact on virtually every major eighteenth-century contributor to philosophy of art, including Voltaire, Montesquieu, Diderot, Rousseau, Herder, Lessing, Mendelssohn, Kames, Gerard, and Hume. This is the first modern, annotated and scholarly edition of the Critical Reflections in any language.

Literary Milieux

Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
"The essays range from Shakespeare and early modern literature to Wordsworth. They evince scrupulous care over the handling of evidence, an interdisciplinary impulse yoked always to a prizing of the literary (particularly the poetic), a willingness to embrace an ambitious argument where it can be supported, a humaneness of temper, particularly in polemic. Latent within them all is a wrestling with the central problem of text and context."--BOOK JACKET.
