Título : The Oxford book of Aphorisms Tipo de documento: texto impreso Autores: John Gross, Autor Editorial: Oxford University Press Fecha de publicación: 1997 Número de páginas: 383 p. Dimensiones: 20 cm. ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-0-19-282015-0 Nota general: 'Entertaining, thoughtful, splendidly varied.' Kingsley Amis Idioma : Inglés (eng) Clasificación: Inglés:Literatura:Lecturas originales:Cultura. Civilización. Sociedad Clasificación: ING(N) BOY boy Novelas en Inglés Resumen: The dictionary defines "aphorism" as "a short pithy statement or maxim," but beneath this definition lies a wealth of wit and insight to which neither the word nor any brief description can do justice. This delightful anthology demonstrates just how rewarding the aphorism can be and how brilliantly the aphorist can illuminate a hidden truth or reveal the ironies of life. Whatever the situation, whatever the mood, the reader will find in this international array of aphorisms just the right words to give his or her feeling pungent expression. The classic aphorists--La Bruyère, Nietzsche, both Samuel Butlers, La Rochefoucault, Emerson--are here in abundance, as are the philosophers from the Greeks of Paul Valéry, the social commentators from Edmund Burke to Walter Benjamin. Statesmen and scientists, Olympians and gadflies, mystics and boulevardiers--this collection brings together the most diverse figures, drawing freely on ancients and moderns, on the widsom of East and West, juxtaposing viewpoints as different as those of Jean Cocteau and George Orwell, Ambrose Bierce and Marcus Aurelius, Lord Chesterfield and Elias Canetti. Profound, provocative, and vastly entertaining, The Oxford Book of Aphorisms will lure the reader back to its pages time and again. The book is fully indexed, and wherever possible, sources, dates, and complete names are supplied. anthologies,dictionaries,dictionaries and thesauruses,education and reference,history and criticism,humanities,literature,literature and fiction,poetry,quotations Quotations, Oxford Paperbacks The Oxford book of Aphorisms [texto impreso] / John Gross, Autor . - [S.l.] : Oxford University Press, 1997 . - 383 p. ; 20 cm.

The classic ingredients of the genre are a quest for vengeance, mad scenes, a play within a play, and carnage. Each of the four plays here subverts the genre, and deals with fundamental moral questions about justice and the individual, while registering the strains of life in an increasingly fragile social hierarchy. This edition includes Thomas Kyd's The Spanish Tragedy, the anonymous The Revenger's Tragedy (variously ascribed to Cyril Tourneur and Thomas Middleton), The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois by George Chapman, and Tourneur's The Atheist's Tragedy.
