Orts: The George MacDonald Society Newsletter

Robin Brooks's play Fav'rite Nation which ran at the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, London, from the 3rd to the 20th of January is about the relationships between George MacDonald, John Ruskin, Octavia Hill—and Mrs la Touche and her unfortunate daughter Rose. MacDonald tried to assist when Ruskin developed a hopeless passion for Rose—the story is told in the 1924 biography of MacDonald and later in William Raeper's. Octavia Hill's work for the National Trust and other good causes is even better known. One of our members comments that the play was competently acted and rivetting throughout, bringing out well the conflict …

The Annual General Meeting of the George MacDonald Society will be held on Friday 27 September 1996, at Freda Levson's flat, 58A Westbourne Park Villas, London 'W2 5EB, at 6.30 for 7 pm. Deirdre Hayward, who is currently exploring the background of MacDonald's religious and philosophic thought, will give a talk to members. There will also be a short tribute to the late Raphael Shaberman, and it is hoped members of the Lewis Carroll Society will join us on account of his long and close connection with Carroll studies.

The Society planned a rather unusual meeting for 26 March this year, designed for mainly social purposes and without business discussion, or any specific lecture topic. It was hoped to attract some members who were not generally able to get to meetings, to hear something of what MacDonald meant to a number of people, in an informal atmosphere, at Freda Levson's flat.

Orts: The George MacDonald Society Newsletter

Our annual general meeting on 27 September provided an interesting contrast. Once the business had been dealt with, the spotlight was on one of our founder members, whose recent sudden loss was a shock to all. Phil Streeter's short talk on his friend and fellow-member Raphael Shaberman was not however a mournful obituary but a skillful portrait of a writer, scholar and artist who would probably have much disliked any public description of his personality. Raphael was perhaps best known for his work on the bibliography of George MacDonald; he was equally well informed on Lewis Carroll . He was …

Truth's Bright Embrace: Essays and Poems in Honor of Arthur O. Roberts

One of my favorite Far Sides shows a spider on an analyst's couch, saying, "It's the same dream night after night...I walk out on my web, and suddenly a foot sticks-and then another foot sticks, and another, and another, and another...." Gary Larsen's spider expresses the impression that people who are fascinated by language have: language is like a web. I spin it out thinking that I have it under control, and suddenly it seems I am caught in the system of words. I open my mouth to speak, and suddenly words appear or disappear, the wrong words come, or …

The Punctator's World: A Discursion (Part Nine), Gwen G. Robinson

The Courier

In the writing ofauthors Henryjames, Robert Louis Stevenson, D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf, james joyce, E. E. Cummings, Ezra Pound, George Orwell, and Ernest Hemingway, Robinson traces the development in the twentieth century of two rival styles, one "plaindealing" and the other"complected." In the "literary skirmish" between the two, the latter may be losing-perhaps at the expense of our reasoning powers.


Antimodern, Modern, And Postmodern Millay: Contexts Of Revaluation, Cheryl Walker Jan 1996

Antimodern, Modern, And Postmodern Millay: Contexts Of Revaluation, Cheryl Walker

Scripps Faculty Publications and Research

In this chapter, Walker examines questions concerning renewed scholarly interest in Edna St. Vincent Millay toward the end of the twentieth century. Specifically, these questions center on whether to rethink the principles of establishing the canon of American literature--indeed, whether the poet changes literary fashions or literary fashions change the poet. Walker's answer is the latter, and her essay examines how Millay is different received through three different periods: antimodern, modern, and postmodern. She argues that whether a poet becomes central to literary study has less to do with the "quality" of the poetry than with complex cultural factors that …

"Yes, Friends, These Clouds...Are...Stage Machinery": An Exploration Of Subject In John Ashbery, Shauna Sutherland Jan 1996

"Yes, Friends, These Clouds...Are...Stage Machinery": An Exploration Of Subject In John Ashbery, Shauna Sutherland

Honors Papers

John Ashbery emerged in the late 1950's as an avantgarde experimentalist. His critical attention has varied remarkably since that time to the extent that he is now considered by some to be an "utterly academic poet." His early volumes, such as The Tennis Court Oath (1962), often received harsh criticism. This particular volume was simply labeled "garbage" by reviewer John Simon. Of course, Ashbery has always had his evident admirers, such as Harold Bloom, who links Ashbery wholeheartedly with his great American forefathers Emerson, Whitman and Stevens. But even Bloom's most complimentary articles on Ashbery include such statements as the …
