untitled Admired in her time, this author fell quickly from view, but her genius is now being rediscovered. The literary star known as “L.E.L.,” pen name of the British poet, novelist, and critic Letitia Elizabeth Landon (1802-1838), rose to prominence around 1824. But after her death in 1838 in Africa, her fame went into occultation, and her works were largely lost from public view until the last two decades. It is a tantalizing mystery, in many respects. Why, with her brief but impressive career, did Letitia Landon fade so quickly and utterly from the literary world? The story of L.E.L.’s life and work offers an object lesson in the power of cultural forces to create, and then destroy, an artistic reputation. Letitia Landon’s father, John Landon (1756-1824), of a Herefordshire family, had served in the British Navy and voyaged to the southern coast of Africa and to Jamaica. In the course of the 1820s and 1830s, popular literary taste was rapidly shifting from poetry to fiction. Francis J.

Poetry Society of America untitled Jennifer Hardner ’01Cedar Crest College A Biography of Landon using "Love’s Last Lesson" Letitia Elizabeth Landon was born in London in 1802. She had a younger brother and a younger sister. In her early teens, a neighbor, editor William Jerdan, discovered her verse, and she instantly was thought of as a child prodigy. Being single, untitled, popular, and free-willed, Landon was the target of many poisoned darts. I have concluded that two factors led to the early demise of Letitia Elizabeth Landon: the men throughout her life, and the uptight views of the English. I think "Love’s Last Lesson" closely resembles Landon’s desires and frustrations, because it is not surprising that she wished to be able to forget all the rumors about herself, and the pain caused by the men in her life, "…forgetfullness will be/ A mercy to me." The public display of an official engagement led me to believe her relationship with John Forster was finally a ‘real love’ to her. Works Cited Hickock, Kathleen.
Conducting A Social Media Audit by Kristy Bolsinger on Aug 13, 2010 The ability to conduct a thorough and meaningful social media audit is an invaluable weapon in a good marketing arsenal. Whether you’re a consultant getting started with a new client, or an in-house SMM (Social Media Marketer – so I don’t have to type that out every time) looking to improve your current efforts – compiling a holistic and complete picture of your current state of affairs is critical. Certainly every case is different based on the needs of the organization or client but I’ve pulled together a list here that I’ve compiled by looking at client audit’s that I have done in the past as well as the quarterly audit’s I do for my employer. Please feel free to share any points in the comments that you think others should be considering as well. An audit will be a very individualized process. So at this point I open it up to all of you.
50 Most Influential Books of the Last 50 (or so) Years In compiling the books on this list, the editors at SuperScholar have tried to provide a window into the culture of the last 50 years. Ideally, if you read every book on this list, you will know how we got to where we are today. Not all the books on this list are “great.” The criterion for inclusion was not greatness but INFLUENCE. The books we chose required some hard choices. We also tried to keep a balance between books that everyone buys and hardly anyone reads versus books that, though not widely bought and read, are deeply transformative. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 45.
The Writer's Almanac untitled First the poem, then the discussion. Or really, if you have time, first the poem. Then a a few moments to think/grieve, and then the discussion. You'll understand that better in a moment, unless this is one you already know by heart. When We Two Partedby George Gordon, Lord Byron When we two partedIn silence and tears,Half broken-hearted,To sever for years,Pale grew thy cheek and cold,Colder thy kiss;Truly that hour foretoldSorrow to this. The dew of the morningSank chill on my brow—It felt like the warningOf what I feel now.Thy vows are all broken,And light is thy fame:I hear thy name spoken,And share in its shame. They name thee before me,A knell to mine ear;A shudder comes o’er me—Why wert thou so dear? In secret we met—In silence I grieveThat thy heart could forget,Thy spirit deceive.If I should meet theeAfter long years,How should I greet thee? Go on. The power of this poem comes from multiple sources. And a large part of this poem's power is that ends on a sadder note than it began.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet - loremipsum.net 2.cs.cmu This book contains 209 tales collected by the brothers Grimm. The exact print source is unknown. The etext appears to be based on the translation by Margaret Hunt called Grimm's Household Tales, but it is not identical to her edition. (Some of the translations are slightly different, the arrangement also differs, and the Grimm's scholarly notes are not included.) The etext received by the Universal Library did not include story titles. They have been restored in this edition, based on Hunt's titles. Note that these tales are presented more or less as the Grimms collected and edited them (and as Hunt saw fit to translate them). NEW: There is now a more accurate version of the Hunt translation posted by William Barker.
