  • James Russell Lowell - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series James Russell Lowell - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive James Russell Lowell(22 February 1819 – 12 August 1891) James Russell Lowell was an American Romantic poet, critic, editor, and diplomat. He is associated with the Fireside Poets, a group of New England writers who were among the first American poets who rivaled the popularity of British poets. These poets usually used conventional forms and meters in their poetry, making them suitable for families entertaining at their fireside. Lowell graduated from Harvard College in 1838, despite his reputation as a troublemaker, and went on to earn a law degree from Harvard Law School. He published his first collection of poetry in 1841 and married Maria White in 1844. He and his wife had several children, though only one survived past childhood. The couple soon became involved in the movement to abolish slavery, with Lowell using poetry to express his anti-slavery views and taking a job in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as the editor of an abolitionist newspaper. After moving back to Cambridge, Lowell was one of the founders of a journal called The Pioneer, which lasted only three issues. He gained notoriety in 1848 with the publication of A Fable for Critics, a book-length poem satirizing contemporary critics and poets. The same year, he published The Biglow Papers, which increased his fame. He would publish several other poetry collections and essay collections throughout his literary career. Maria White died in 1853, and Lowell accepted a professorship of languages at Harvard in 1854.

  • 203 N. Amity Street
    http://knowingpoe.thinkport.org/ 203 N. Amity Street Content Overview In this interactive. students will take a virtual tour of the Edgar Allan Poe House and Museum located at 29 Amity Street, Baltimore. This outline includes all text on the tour. The activity also includes images. A special thanks to the Edgar Allan Poe House and Museum for authorizing this interactive tour. You might consider taking your class on a field trip to the “Poe House”. For more information: http://www.eapoe.org/balt/poehse.htm Intro Poe’s House at 203 N. Amity Street. Click on any of the highlighted rooms of the house (shown at left) to bring up a floorplan of the room. Then click on highlights in the room views shown below to see details. You may also see a larger version of any image by clicking on it at right. The Garret The About the According to most authorities, Poe lived in the garret, or attic, of the Garret Garret house on Amity Street. We don’t have any direct evidence of what kind of furniture Poe had in his room. However, scholars of the Edgar Allan Poe Society of Baltimore have recreated what the room probably looked like from records of other homes at the time. Though all the Poe house furniture has been long lost, the items in the room date to the 1830’s and are typical examples of what a poor family could have afforded. Roll over parts of the floor plan below to explore Poe’s bedroom at 3 Amity Street.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

  • 'Spirit Verse' Apocryphal Poems and Marketing in Composing Lizzie
    International Journal of Linguistics, Literature and Culture (Linqua- LLC) June 2016 edition Vol.3 No.2 ISSN 2410-6577 ‘Spirit Verse’ Apocryphal Poems and Marketing in Composing Lizzie Doten’s Poems from the Inner Life Mashael Alhammad, MA in American Literature Prince Sattam University, Saudi Arabia Abstract This paper discusses Lizzie Doten’s book Poems from the Inner Life in which she had claimed that the spirits of dead famous poets, majorly Edgar Allen Poe, wrote most of the poems. I argue that Doten was successful in selling her book. She was able to accomplish this by taking advantage of the public interest of spiritualism during the 19th century and Edgar Allen Poe’s fan base. Keywords: Fandom, fan culture, literature, marketing, 19th century poetry. Introduction In 1909, New York Times newspaper published an article in its November issue under the name Laureate of Spookland: Strange Case of Lizzie Doten, Writer of ‘Spirit Verse.’ They acknowledged Lizzie Doten’s ability of communicating with dead poets and publishing their poems in her book titled Poems from the Inner Life (New York Times, 1909). Even though forty-five years had passed since the publication of her book, Doten still received notice from one of the leading newspapers. However, her popularity derived from communicating with spirits was not uncommon. Along with being seen as a movement that has helped in promoting radical political and cultural beliefs such as women’s rights and abolitionism, spiritualism, the belief in the possibility in communicating with the dead, has provided a profession and fame through many mediums.

  • The Universal
    David Faflik BOARDINGHOUSE LiFE, BOARDINGHOUSE LETTERS In 1842, journalist-poet Walt Whitman could pronounce "the universal Yankee nation" "a hoarding people." He went on to explain that ' |m]arried men and single men, old women and pretty girls; milliners and masons; cohhiers, colonels, and counter-jumpers; tailors and teachers; lieuten- ants, loafers, ladies, lackbrains, and lawyers; printers and parsons—'hlack spirits and white, hiue spirits and gay'—all 'go out to hoard'" ("New York" 22-23). Today his pronouncement mystifies. Not only has urhan hoarding as a social fact all hut vanished, hut the boardinghouse as a cultural phe- nomenon, as the kind of conspicuous ohject-image that invited commen- tary to hegin with, likewise has faded from view. Yet Americans of Whitmans day truly were "a hoarding people," drawn as they were to hoardinghouses in astonishing numhers. While the majority of United States residents still favored the stand-alone dwelling (Martin 148), Whitmans later claim that three-quarters of Manhattan's adult population had boarded or was boarding as of 1856 hints at the central place the hoardinghouse held not just in New York hut in nine- teenth-century American life generally ("Wicked" 95; Benedict 101).' But what Whitman's remarks most suggest is this: that the antehellum hoard- inghtjuse was otice glaringly worth writing about and that boarding car- ried discursive consequences for a people pressed hy urhan necessity into the improvised living arrangement that once upon a titne was boarding. Simply put, the process hy which hoardinghouse life was translated into a boardinghouse-oriented print tradition, and so hecame a legitimate literary genre in its own right, reveals much ahout the period.

Its interior is a spacious hall, with a pavement of white marble.

The windows of this hall have a breadth and grandeur of 1 “The Hall of Fantasy” was originally published in the Pioneer in 1843. It was col- lected in Mosses from an Old Manse (1846), upon the second edition of which (1854) this text is based. Pioneer released only three issues, in January, February, and March of 1843, in two of which Hawthorne’s work appeared: “The Hall of Fantasy” in the second issue, and “The Birth-mark” in the third.

  • James Russell Lowell, As an Editor of the Atlantic Monthly, Toward Henry Thoreau
    “THE FIRST PERSON TO EXPRESS THE AMERICAN IDEA”1 His interest in the moral questions of the day has supplied the want of vitality in himself; his great facility at versification has enabled him to fill the ear with a copious stream of pleasant sound. But his verse is stereotyped; his thought sounds no depth, and posterity will not remember him. — Margaret Fuller I’ve come up with a new theory to account for the hostility displayed by James Russell Lowell, as an editor of The Atlantic Monthly, toward Henry Thoreau. As you are presumably aware, these two knew each other early, both during their school years together at Harvard in Cambridge, and after Thoreau’s graduation in Concord where Lowell had been exiled (“rusticated”) from Cambridge for lack of attention to his studies, to be privately tutored by the Reverend Barzillai Frost. Lowell grew fond of making snippy derogations of Thoreau — after all, Lowell was one of the effete Boston nobs, of inheritance and family social standing, who moved in the hoity-toity circles of the downtown movers and shakers, whereas Thoreau was a mere village Frenchie nobody who, sniff, needed to get his hands all dirty. When in 1858 Thoreau offered an essay on the Maine woods to The Atlantic Monthly, Lowell arbitrarily deleted a sentence about a pine tree in Maine, “It is as immortal as I am, and perchance will go to as high a heaven, there to tower above me still,” and Thoreau was powerless to correct him. Lowell simply refused to respond. Then Thoreau couldn’t get Lowell to pay him for the article, or even to communicate about the nonpayment.

He willed it to his grandson, Thomas Triplett Hunter Harwood. In the year 1940 it passed into the hands of his nephew, A. A. Harwood's great grandson, Wilson Franklin Harwood (Stanford '35). A. A. Harwood's career in the Navy started with his appointment as Midshipman on the gun-brig Saranac in 1818. He retired with the rank of Rear Admiral in 1874.
