John Paul Jones Bret Harte Tackles Paul Jones Bret Harte Tackles Paul Jones Written by Bret Harte "Off Scarborough" (1878) POEMS ABOUT JOHN PAUL JONES Many great writers have taken on the exploits of John Paul Jones. Many more will. Here the Cowboy Poet dramatizes the battle of the Bonhomme Richard in "Off Scarborough" by Bret Harte. The Captain and the Cowboy Poet Scores, perhaps hundreds, of artists have been drawn to the legend of John Paul Jones, crafting it into paintings, plays, songs, poems and stories. James Fennimore Cooper, Alexandre Dumas, Herman Melville, Sarah Orne Jewett, William Makepeace Thakery and the American novelist Winston Churchill are among the famous literary names who have taken a whack at depicting Jones. 1 And let’s not forget Bret Harte (1836-1902), the cowboy poet, whose "Luck of Roaring Camp" and other works helped pump up the literary legends of the American West. By comparison, Jones’ rip-roaring reputation in 19th century America was an apt character for Harte. Like many writers, Bret Harte focused on the famous battle between the BONHOMME RICHARD and HMS SERAPIS for his poem "Off Scarborough". The date of the poem’s appearance in Scribner's Monthly, (vol. 16, issue 4, August 1878) indicates it was a centennial tribute to one first and one of the bloodiest naval battles in American history.

Friends and Acquaintances Bret Harte Short-story writer and editor. Bret Harte rose to prominence as a San Francisco writer during the 1860s and 70s. After Sam Clemens came to California in 1865, Bret helped him get published in several publications. While writing The Innocents Abroad in San Francisco in 1868, Bret provided editorial assistance in exchange for being allowed to publish excerpts in the Overland Monthly, of which he was editor. In 1876, Bret came to the Clemenses house in Hartford, Connecticut, where he wrote one of his major stories, Thankful Blossom. Bret and Sam also collaborated on the play Ah Sin. While working on the play and in the immediate aftermath, Bret and Sam became embroiled in a bickering argument, which would lead to their falling out. For the remainder of his life, Sam would have an very negative opinion of Harte as a person, while always respecting his ability as a writer. William Dean Howells Very respected and influential editor, writer, and critic from the late 1860s on. W.D. Howells began his career in literature as an editor for the Nation magazine after the Civil War. By 1867, he became an assistant editor for the Atlantic Monthly , the most important literary magazines in the country. After a positive review for The Innocents Abroad in 1869, Sam Clemens went to thank Howells in person at his Boston office. The ensuing friendship between the two lasted for the rest of their lives.

return BRET HARTE (1836-1902) by John Pettie (1839-1893) Bret Harte was born in New York State, but in 1854, after the death of his father, his family moved to California. By the end of the decade he was writing clever sketches of frontier life for the San Francisco magazine Golden Era . His short stories, such as "The Luck of Roaring Camp" and "The Outcasts of Poker Flat," published in the late 1860s, provided ample proof of the rich literary potential that was to be found in the rough-hewn life of his state's gold-mining frontier. Harte, a restless soul, left for the East in 1871. In both Boston and New York, he found himself lionized as the West's most brilliant and promising writer. Nevertheless in 1878, Harte took a position as a commercial agent in Crefeld, Germany. In 1880 he became U.S. consul in Glasgow, Scotland, but, bored by the town and his duties, he traveled frequently to London and moved there in 1885. John Pettie, a Scotsman living in London and a member of its Royal Academy, was known for his historical paintings and portraits. The artist was clearly proud of this portrait, for he exhibited it at the Royal Academy in 1885 and at the Jubilee exhibition in Berlin the following year before he gave it as a gift to the sitter, with whom he had become friends.

The Idyl of Red Gulch Bret Harte THE IDYL OF RED GULCH by Bret Harte Harte's tale of a small town in California during the Gold Rush centers on a young schoolmistress, a drunken but charming young man, and a prostitute. The unusual triangle creates a quiet, moralistic tale with a few unexpected twists and turns.

The Schoolmistress: Romance: Schoolmistress and Community: R e l a t e d S i t e s The Idyl of Red Gulch (facsimile of original journal) Text of Stories by Bret Harte BRET HARTE: Popularity, Poetry and Performance (Anxiety) Bret Harte I n t r o d u c t i o n Bret Harte is best known for his stories set in California in the years following the 1849 Gold Rush. Harte was an easterner by birth and education who went west in 1854 when he was 18 and lived in California until he was 36. He never really lived the life of the mining camps and small towns he wrote about, so his stories tend to mythologize the world he depicted, creating stereotypical characters and places that capture the flavor of the time. "The Idyl of Red Gulch" is one of these stories. "The Idyl of Red Gulch" depicts an incident in a small town in northern California. The three main characters are classic western archetypes the town drunk, the prostitute, and the schoolmistress and they are all portrayed in the manner we have learned to expect. The drunk has a charming side and a surprising past; the prostitute is a painted woman on the outside but a caring, frightened woman on the inside; and the schoolmistress is a stern but warm young woman who is loved by her students and respected by the townfolk.

Although they never met in person, the writer, Francis Bret Harte (1836-1902), and the artist, Lafayette Maynard Dixon (1875-1946), had at least three things in common, San Francisco, the Overland Monthly and the Bohemian Club.

After a stint as editor of The Californian, a literary weekly in which Harte arranged to have first published Samuel Clemens' (Mark Twain's) The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calavaras County , in 1865, Harte helped to establish and became editor, in 1868, of the Overland Monthly, which fast became one of America's leading literary journals. The Overland Monthly published many of Harte's best-known stories, including
