Horror Les Contemplations

the heroism of the oppressed. Has he to write of the power of Spain? It is in the portrayal of the tyrant of Spain rather than the men who overcame Spain that his genius finds scope. Does he wish to paint the era of religious persecution? It is the horror of the Inquisition rather than the heroism of its victims that is pictured on his canvas. Delineations of heroic virtue there are indeed in the Légende, but it is noteworthy that they occur usually in fictions such as Éviradnus, Le Petit Roi de Galice

interest in poetic form and related poetry to a wider range of human experience. But courtly modes also came under attack from less well-born quarters. By 1400, theatre, prose and verse, less idealistic now and more keenly conscious of death and the horrors of life, turned increasingly to the state of society, the human condition and itself. If romance remained popular, it was rooted in the past, unlike theatre which reacted to change. All prose narratives became more personal, and history and didactic

of times to “the public,” so unexpectedly that earlier translators have paraphrased the term away). Are these real people, or actors in some sort of show? It is essential to Dostoevsky's art that the “view” is constantly shifting and may drop into horror or rise into laughter at any moment. Yet this ambiguity does not make light of suffering. On the contrary, what writer has ever revealed it so nakedly? And that precisely because he does not allow us our usual rational or sentimental evasions. Suffering

Lariboisière, then building. Slowly, from one end to the other of the horizon, did she follow the wall, from behind which in the nightime she had heard strange groans and cries, as if some fell murder were being perpetrated. She looked at it with horror, as if in some dark corner—dark with dampness and filth—she should distinguish Lantier—Lantier lying dead with his throat cut. Suddenly Gervaise thought she distinguished Lantier amid this crowd, and she leaned eagerly forward at the risk of falling

understands the meanings of the other thought, even if they are located at the opposite poles of the universe. Understanding the significance and meaningfulness of the Seen and the Unseen is the life essence of the universe. We, with a considered contemplation about this life essence, which is our own life essence as well, can explore the conditions and situations of other planets besides that of our own planet. We can discover the thoughts of men and animals, can acquaint ourselves with activities of

He dedicated several works to her and in The Broken Nest portrayed a relationship clearly based on theirs, although in the novel the woman is the more aggressive of the pair and the young man standing in for Tagore flees in horror when he realizes she has fallen in love with him. Traditionally, well-off upper caste women were expected to remain sequestered in the house, visiting only occasionally at their parents’ home or attending weddings of relatives. Most male visitors

can help the poor. And you cannot hold the mental image which is to make you rich if you fill your mind with pictures of poverty. Do not read books or papers which give circumstantial accounts of the wretchedness of the tenement dwellers, of the horrors of child labor, and so on. Do not read anything which fills your mind with gloomy images of want and suffering. You cannot help the poor in the least by knowing about these things; and the wide-spread knowledge of them does not tend at all to do away

Cette âme éternelle a vécu autrefois dans le monde supérieur des Idées, où elle retournera quand elle sera libérée de la prison du corps.
