: "The Mock Turtle's Song," by Lewis Carroll, from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
The Mock Turtle's Song
"Will you walk a little faster?"
said a whiting to a snail.
"There's a porpoise close behind us,
and he's treading on my tail.
See how eagerly the lobsters and
the turtles all advance!
will you come and join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you, will you join the dance? Will you, won't you, will you, won't you won't you join the dance? "You can really have no notion how delightful it will be, When they take us up and throw us, with the lobsters, out to sea!" But the snail replied "Too far, too far!" Said he thanked the whiting kindly, but he would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, could not join the dance. "What matters it how far we go?"

Broadcast date: MONDAY 6 November 2000 Poem: "Dogs," by Lawrence Raab, from The Probable World (Penquin Poets 2000) Dogs I never liked the idea.
Didn’t animals belong outside?
Wasn’t it wrong to make them
feel like people, talking to them
as if they understood? Of course they understood
some of the time, I said,
but anything small enough gets scared
when you raise your voice.
A well-trained dog, we read when we got the dog, is a happy dog.
Your dog, I told my wife. And yours, I told my daughter. But all the better arguments were on their side: loyalty. companionship, and every time we came home the dog welcomed us, so of course se started talking to her. Then sometimes I said I’d take her out. I said I wanted to smoke a cigarette and I did, even though I liked the way she waited by the door when I called her name, the way it was so easy to make her happy.

We will explore the neoclassical adoption and adaptation of some classical literary genres, from the lowly epigram to the lofty epic, with special emphasis on two almost extinct but once dominant forms, pastoral and georgic. Throughout the readings we will learn the importance of decorum, the matching of style to subject and audience, and its role in the informative and ideological functions of literature within culture. We will explore some of the most recent criticism of genre in eighteenth-century studies. Though we will not include the novel, we will consider other kinds of prose, including the essay and its various illuminations and criticisms of literature and society. Required Texts:

Students are particularly encouraged to make use of email to communicate questions or comments. All messages will be answered promptly, usually in under 24 hours. Office Hours: TTH 9:30-11am, W 2-3:30pm or by appointment. COURSE DESCRIPTION Focusing on works from the "long 18th century," this seminar will study literary explorations of the concepts of "self" and "subjectivity" concepts which were, during the period of 1660-1800, under contention in several domains aesthetic, philosophical, psychological, political, economic, and religious. In particular, the seminar will examine how writing and the work of literature become a privileged domain to articulate and experiment with models for a modern selfhood. By looking at how authors write about themselves and about their work (literary and sometimes otherwise), we will attempt to outline how the resulting notions of aesthetic value might be connected to concurrent shifts in ideas of the economic and political value individual. We will begin the semester with more explicit forms of writing about the private and public self, both real and fictional. We will analyze how the historical and ideological transformations in the genres of the diary, the autobiography, the biography, and the epistolary novel each postulate and problematize different models of subjectivity. In the second half of the semester, we will approach similar concerns through the poetry of the period, focusing primarily on the genres of pastoral and georgic. Examining the debate on the proper form and content of the pastoral, and its subsequent georgic transformations throughout the century, we will attempt to make further connections between the expression of aesthetic and economic value, particular in so far as it relates to the profession and professionlization of poetry. In both segments of the semester's work, we will pay particular attention to the manner in which a writer's gender or class is reflected and resisted in his or her writing. Finally, as a capstone to the semester, we will consider a selection of late-18th century philosophical and economic texts, in particular, the work of Adam Smith. Through Smith, we will analyze how eighteenth-century conceptions of the value of our human subjectivity (not to mention the value of studying literature) continue to influence contemporary debates on issues such as individual agency, literary education, and the canon wars.

He was supposedly born 1728-1730 in Pallas , County Longford, Ireland, the son of Reverend Charles Goldsmith the "fifth of seven" and the "second son". I have read all about his life on various web pages, but cannot find a record of the family. I need to find out more about his father and mother and their other children.

Executive summary: Marianne French novelist and dramatist, born at Paris on the 4th of February 1688. His father was a financier of Norman extraction whose real name was Carlet, but who assumed the surname of Chamblain, and then superadded that of Marivaux. The elder Carlet de Marivaux was a man of good reputation, and he received the appointment of director of the mint at Riom in Auvergne, where and at Limoges the young Pierre was brought up. It is said that he developed literary tastes early, and wrote his first play, the , when he was only eighteen; it was not, however, published until 1712, when he was twenty-four. His chief attention in those early days was paid to novel writing, not the drama. In the three years from 1713 to 1715 he produced three novels Effets surprenants de la sympathie , and a book which had three titles Pharsamon Les Folies romanesques , and Le Don Quichotte moderne . All these books were in a curious strain, not in the least resembling the pieces which long afterwards were to make his reputation, but following partly the Spanish romances and partly the heroic novels of the preceding century, with a certain intermixture of the marvellous. Then Marivaux's literary ardor took a new phase. He fell under the influence of Antoine Hondar[d] de La Motte, and thought to serve the cause of that ingenious paradoxer by travestying

    Chess Psychology
    When you play chess have you ever been psyched out? Has a chess player done something that annoys you or are you just plain psyched out when you play a player that you have never beat before. What can you do to improve your chances of winning? Why is psychology such an important factor in chess and how come there are those who say that psychology plays no part in chess? I invite you to join our discussion as we explore psychology in chess.

    Stuttering Oliver Goldsmith was born November 10, 1730. His undoubted talent as a writer won him a place in the leading circle of English literature the one that revolved about Samuel Johnson but his social ineptness and hesitant speech occasionally made him the butt of their jokes. Goldsmith wasn't a great thinker but he was a great writer. Today's poem, The Deserted Village , is an example. It does not deal with a real village; Auburn is supposed to be somewhere in England, but it has many characteristics of the Irish village where Goldsmith grew up. The premise of the poem is that the trend of consolidating small plots and village commons into large farms and private parks was ruining the nation. The land around and including the fictional Auburn had been bought by a rich man and joined to his private estate; the villagers who once made their living from this land have been forced to move to the cities there is no other place for them. The complaint has never been made in a more forceful way: Ill fares the land, to hastening ills a prey, Where wealth accumulates and men decay; Princes and lords may flourish, or may fade; A breath can make them, as a breath has made; But a bold peasantry, their country's pride, When once destroyed, can never be supplied.

    OF course, Harry was established at Wyllys-Roof. And, after a few days passed with her parents at Longbridge, Elinor persuaded Jane to pay her a short visit. As for our friends at Wyllys-Roof, the joy of re-union, after a long absence, gave additional zest to the first pleasant meetings of the young people, in whom Miss Agnes and Mr. Wyllys were so warmly interested. Elinor was in gay spiritseven Jane was more animated than usual, in her expressions and manners. As for Harry, he was decidedly improved; the last two years had done a great deal for him. He was now a clever, well-educated, agreeable young man of three-and-twenty, whose judgment and taste were much improved by travelling. "A very good-looking fellow, too, Agnes," remarked Mr. Wyllys. It was easy to gather, from the natural, healthful tone of his conversation, that in more important points, while he had gained much, he had lost nothing by wider observation of the world. Miss Agnes was well aware that the last two years had not been lost with Elinor, although passed in quiet every-day life. She knew, from close observation, that the character of her adopted child had been gradually approaching nearer to all she wished it to be. As the two young girls sat chatting together, Miss Wyllys could not but mark the striking difference in their appearance; but she also felt that if Jane's loveliness were a charm, even to her, knowing Elinor thoroughly, she loved her far more deeply for the want of beauty. But, of course, the world would have decided differently.
