Culture and Anarchy and Other Selected Prose

By: Matthew Arnold

One has often wondered whether upon the whole earth there is anything so unintelligent, so unapt to perceive how the world is really going, as an ordinary young Englishman of our upper class' Poet, education reformer, social theorist and passionate critic of Victorian England, Matthew Arnold condemned an industrial society in 'bondage to machinery' and argued instead that the wonder and joy of culture - in particular the 'sweetness and light' of classical civilization - were essential to human life. The other pieces here, on literary criticism, schools, France, journalism and democracy, form a powerful call to arms from a writer who believed that the English needed to be taught not what to think, but how to think. Edited with an introduction by P. J. Keating.

Delphi Complete Poetical Works of Matthew Arnold (Illustrated)

By: Matthew Arnold

The Victorian English poet and essayist Matthew Arnold was the archetypal sage writer, noted for his classical attacks on the tastes and manners of his time. His poetry is characterised by its classically poised, serene and grand style, which is often intimate, personal, full of romantic regret and nostalgic in tone. Arnold’s incisive essays chastised and instructed the reader on contemporary social issues, fashioning himself as the apostle of “culture” in his landmark work ‘Culture and Anarchy’. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature's finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents the complete poetical works of Matthew Arnold, with beautiful illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Devour Us Not

Devour Us Not

By: Arnold P. Powers

To stand in silence when they should be protesting makes cowards out of men." Abraham Lincoln "To be inhuman is to watch the inhumane treatment of others in silence." Arnold P. Powers "Tis better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt." Abraham Lincoln "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This Book has taken five years to complete, but it's really incomplete. There are still elements of our family's history that has been hidden from us and still remains to be researched. The complexity of information concealed by Whites is not alone. Just as many Blacks for whatever reason has also concealed information for the sole purpose of who knows! But it gives me a sense of who we are as people, the genealogy research bug. Where you go back into our fore-fathers lives and the puzzles wait anyone daring to put the pieces together is worth the assured disappointment of dissatisfaction that will assuredly come. But it never taints the curiosity! Photo on the front cover is a newspaper article from, "The Pensacola Journal," dated December 16, 1906. The two individuals pictured are Uncle Joe and Aunt Lucy. Real people described as "Good-Ole Antebellum Colored Folks." "Back Cover is from "The San Francisco Call," newspaper article dated, July 17, 1904.

Your United States - Impressions of a First Visit

With an Essay from Arnold Bennett By F. J. Harvey Darton

By: Arnold Bennett,F. J. Harvey Darton

First published in 1912, “Your United States - Impressions of a First Visit” is an interesting account of the author's experiences when visiting the USA for the first in the early twentieth century. Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was an English writer. Although he is perhaps best remembered for his popular novels, Bennett also produced work in other areas including the theatre, propaganda, journalism, and film. Contents include: “The First Night”, “Streets”, “The Capitol and Other Sites”, “Some Organizations”, “Transit and Hotels”, “Sports and the Theatre”, “Education and Art”, and “Citizens”. Offering a fascinating insight into American life at the turn of the twentieth century, this vintage book will appeal to those with an interest in American history and society, and it is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Bennet's influential work. Other notable works by this author include: “Helen with a High Hand” (1910), “The Card” (1911), and “Hilda Lessways” (1911). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an essay from F. J. Harvey Darton's 1915 book, “Arnold Bennett”.
