  • Baiter Customs of Lancaster County by ELIZABETH CLARKE KIEFFER
    Baiter Customs of Lancaster County By ELIZABETH CLARKE KIEFFER I F YOU ask any of the students from Baghdad, of whom there I are usually two or three at Franklin and Marshall College, if they are familiar with Easter eggs, you will receive an enthusias- tic response in the affirmative. You will find that not only are colored eggs exchanged and eaten as a symbol of the resurrection, in Iraq; but that little boys on the banks of the Tigris "pick" eggs at Easter time with the same formalities and rules observed on the banks of the Rhine, and those of the Susquehanna. They know that a "point" can usually break a "butt;" they test the thickness of shells with their teeth; they consider it unfair to protect too much of the surface with encircling fingers, but fool- hardy to neglect this precaution entirely. These Iraqian boys even know that a guinea egg is the best "picker," and if you are as- tonished to learn that they have guinea-keets in Mesopotamian chicken-yards, you will find them equally surprised to learn that we have this African bird in America. The egg, indeed, is the universal Easter symbol, whether it be the hand-colored egg, common to peasants of all countries and all creeds; the elaborately decorated chocolate egg, and the hollow sugar egg with pictures inside, that grace our luxurious American Easter; the painted glass darning egg, that children gave their mothers in the nineties; the cardboard egg filled with candy or gifts; or the marvelous jewelled eggs, worth a considerable for- tune, which Russian princesses gave to one another in the days of the czars, and which now are found exclusively in American museums.

M. DENT & SONS LTD. •8 *« AND IN NEW YORK BY « « E. P. DUTTON & COMPANY TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE ALTHOUGH Del Badia's ample and learned notes are sufficient for an Italian, it seemed to me that many allu­ sions might be puzzling to an English reader, especially to one who did not know Florence well; therefore I have added short notes on city-gates, churches and other buildings which now no longer exist; on some of the festivals and customs; on those streets which have changed their nomenclature since Landucci's, day; and also on the old money. His old-fashioned spelling of names and places has been retained (amongst other peculiarities the Florentine was in the habit of replacing an I by an r) ; also the old calendar; and the old Florentine method of reckoning the hours of the day (see notes to 12 January, 1465, and to 27 April, 1468). As for the changes in the Government, they were so frequent and so complex, that it is necessary to have recourse to a consecutive history in order to under­ stand them. A. DE R. J. Florence 1926.

U. S. A. PS3SW To My Wife 360406 NOTE Parts of this poem have appeared in The Poetry Journal, Boston; The Century; and Others, New York. The vampire narrative in Part Four is a free adap tation of the story by Gautier La Morte Amoureuse. PREFACE It has often been said that a book which needs an ex has not suc planatory preface is a book which entirely ceeded. In the present instance, however, whether that is true or not, there are other complications : and for that reason I am glad to run the risk of being told that the book is a failure. These complications arise from the fact that The Jig cf Forslln is somewhat new both in method and in struc ture. It does not conveniently fit in any category, and is therefore liable, like all such works, to be condemned for not being something it was never intended to be. The critics who like to say this man is a realist/ or this man is a romanticist, or in some such way to tag an author once and for all, will here find it difficult. For my intention has been to employ all methods, atti tudes, slants, each in its proper place, as a necessary and vital part of any such study as this.

  • An Approach to Reevaluating and Understanding Chekhov in the Perspective of Theme, Motif, Symbol and Writing Style
    European Journal of English Language and Literature Studies Vol.7, No.2, pp.42-54, March 2019 ___Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) AN APPROACH TO REEVALUATING AND UNDERSTANDING CHEKHOV IN THE PERSPECTIVE OF THEME, MOTIF, SYMBOL AND WRITING STYLE K.M. Jubair Uddin Lecture in English, Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Chittagong, Chittagong- 4331 Bangladesh Md. Khurshedul Alam (Corresponding Author) Lecturer in English, Faculty of Science, University of Chittagong, Chittagong- 4331, Bangladesh ABSTRACT: Anthon Chekhov can strikingly be marked out for his artistic ingenuity in composing his short stories imbued with cornucopia of ideas with pinpoint accuracy. He has amassed so many cutting edge ideas which represent the matter of opinions which can be often described as a sense of sentimental, emotive, equivocal, weird, funny, and even haunting and taunting . A gushing outlet of emotional intelligence and essence of life are found in Anthon Chekhov’s writing. Chekhovian short stories do not let the reader a solid message rather it caters to the readers to give room to extract the themes of the stories from abyss of twist and turn . Russian literature owes to Chekhov by large for he got the nerves of the Russian people and their turn of mind. His delineation of the characters is enshrouded in delicate touch and his dealings with the characters has an emollient tone. His experiential learning with the social maladies bounds him to present the scenario of decadent, corroding and worked-up society of Russia. His play with the word also contributes to the creation of the characterization more sharply and nicely.

The brief memoir is abridged and adapted from the biographical sketch by his brother Mihail. Chekhov's letters to his wife after his mar- riage have not as yet been published. \ BIOGKAPIIICAL SKETCH In 1841 a serf belonging to a Russian nobleman pur- chased iiis freedom and the freedom of his family for 3,500 roubles, i)eing at the rate of 700 roubles a soul, with one daughter, Ahixandra, thrown in for nothing. The grandson of this serf was Anton Chekhov, the author; the son of the nobleman was Tcherlkov, the Tolstoyan and friend of Tolstoy. There is in this nothing striking to a Russian, but to the English student it is sufficiently signif- icant for several reasons. It illustrates how recent a growth was l\u) (jduealed middle-class in pre- revohitionary Russia, and it sliows, what is pi^rhaps more significant, the homogeneity of the; Russian people, and their capacity for comphitely changing their whole way of life.
