BURT, STEPHANIE / MIKICS, DAVID. The art of the sonnet. Cambridge, Mass.: Belknap Press of Harvard University Press, 2010, 1st edition, xi, 451pp., . "Few poetic forms have found more uses than the sonnet in English, and none is now more recognizable. It is one of the longest-lived of verse forms, and one of the briefest. A mere fourteen lines, fashioned by intricate rhymes, it is, as Dante Gabriel Rossetti called it, "a moment's monument." From the Renaissance to the present, the sonnet has given poets a superb vehicle for private contemplation, introspection, and the expression of passionate feelings and thoughts." "The Art of the Sonnet collects one hundred exemplary sonnets of the English language (and a few sonnets in translation), representing highlights in the history of the sonnet, accompanied by short commentaries on each of the poems. The commentaries by Stephen Burt and David Mikics offer new perspectives and insights, and, taken together, demonstrate the enduring as well as changing nature of the sonnet. The authors serve as guides to some of the most-celebrated sonnets in English as well as less-well-known gems by nineteenth- and twentieth-century poets. Also included is a general introductory essay, in which the authors examine the sonnet form and its long and fascinating history, from its origin in medieval Sicily to its English appropriation in the sixteenth century to sonnet writing today in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other English-speaking parts of the world."-- CONTENTS: How to use these sonnets -- "Whoso list to hunt" / Thomas Wyatt (1557) -- "Norfolk sprang thee" / Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey (1557) -- "That self same tongue" / George Gascoigne (1573) -- Astrophel and Stella 45 / Sir Philip Sidney (written 1582) -- Ruines of Rome 3 / Edmund Spencer, original Joachim Du Bellay (1591) -- Delia / Samuel Daniel (1592) -- Amoretti 78 / Edmund Spencer (1595) -- Caelica 7 / Fulke Greville, Lord Broke (probably written 1590s) -- Sonnet 2 / William Shakespeare (1609) -- Sonnet 68 / William Shakespeare (1609) -- Sonnet 116 (1609) / William Shakespeare -- Phamphilia to Amphilanthus 46 / Lady Mary Wroth (1621) -- "At the round earth's imagined corners" / John Donne (probably written 1615-1633) -- "Oh, to vex me, contraries meet in one" / John Donne (probably written 1615-1633) -- "Redemption" / George Herbert (1633) -- "Prayer (I)" / George Herbert (1633) -- "On the late massacre in Piedmont" / John Milton (1673) -- Methought I saw my late espousèd saint" / John Milton (1673) -- Sappho and Phaon 24 / Mary Robinson (1796) -- "Huge vapours brood above the clifted shore / Charlotte Smith (1798) -- "London, 1802 / William Wordsworth (1802) -- "Surprise by Joy" / William Wordsworth (1815) -- "On seeing the Elgin marbles" / John Keats (1817) -- "Four seasons fill the measure of the year" / John Keats (1818) -- "Ozymandias" / Percy Bysshe Shelley (1818) -- "England in 1819" / Percy Bysshe Shelley (written 1819-1820) -- "Work without hope" / Samuel Taylor Coleridge (written) 1825 -- "Swordy well" / John Clare (probably written 1820s) "Mysterious night" / Joseph Blanco White (written 1827) -- "To-morrow" / Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, original by Lope De Vega (1833) -- "The fish, the man, and the spirit" / Leigh Hunt (1836) -- "The Columbine" / Jones Very (1839) -- "Written in Emerson's essays" / Matthew Arnold (written 1844) -- Sonnets from the Portuguese 28 / Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1850) -- Sonnets, third series 6 / Frederick Goddard Tuckerman (written before 1873) -- "Retreat" / Charles Baudelaire (translated by Rachel Hadas) -- Modern love 50 / George Meredith (1862) -- "A dream" Charles / Tennyson Turner (1864) -- "I know not why, but all this weary day / Henry Timrod (1867) -- "Renouncement" / Alice Meynell (written 1869) -- Brother and Sister 7 and 8 / George Eliot (written before 1870) -- "For a Venetian pastoral" / Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1870) -- "A superscription" / Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1870) -- "The cross of snow" / Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (written 1879) -- Later life 17 / Christina Rossetti (1881) -- "The new Colossus" / Emma Lazarus (1883) -- "As kingfishers catch fire" / Gerard Manley Hopkins (written 1883) -- "Thou art indeed just" / Gerard Manley Hopkins (written 1889) -- "Mt.

Excerpt: Paul Johannes Tillich (August 20, 1886 ¿ October 22, 1965) was a German-American theologian and Christian existentialist philosopher. Tillich was one of the most influential Protestant theologians of the 20th century. Among the general populace, he is best known for his works The Courage to Be (1952) and Dynamics of Faith (1957), which introduced issues of theology and modern culture to a general readership. Theologically, he is best known for his major three-volume work Systematic Theology (1951¿63), in which he developed his 'method of correlation': an approach of exploring the symbols of Christian revelation as answers to the problems of human existence raised by contemporary existential philosophical analysis. Tillich was born on August 20, 1886, in the small village of Starzeddel in the province of Brandenburg in eastern Germany. He was the oldest of three children, with two sisters: Johanna (b. 1888, d. 1920) and Elisabeth (b. 1893). Tillich¿s Prussian father was a conservative Lutheran pastor of the Evangelical State Church of Prussia's older Provinces; his mother was from the Rhineland and was more liberal. When Tillich was four, his father became superintendent of a diocese in Schönfliess, a town of three thousand, where Tillich began elementary school. In 1898, Tillich was sent to Königsberg to begin gymnasium. At Königsberg, he lived in a boarding house and experienced loneliness that he sought to overcome by reading the Bible. Simultaneously, however, he was exposed to humanistic ideas at school. In 1900, Tillich¿s father was transferred to Berlin, Tillich switching in 1901 to a Berlin school, from which he graduated in 1904. Before his graduation, however, his mother died of cancer in September 1903, when Tillich was 17. Tillich attended several universities ¿ the University of Berlin beginning in 1904, the University of Tübingen in 1905, and the University of Halle in 1905-07. He received his Doctor of Philosophy degree at the University of Breslau inBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 80 pp. Englisch.
