Greybeards at Play

Rate this audiobook

G.K. Chesterton’s first publication, “Greybeards at Play” is a collection of poetry and accompanying illustrations. The work is marked by the irreverent whimsy and ancient delight that would eventually be recognized as Chesterton’s signature style. Short (only four poems long and a dedication), playful, and with a touch of awe, Chesterton’s first piece (written at 26) is appropriately titled: it is the work of an amateur, mature in his spirit, young in his play. – (Summary by 5pak)     [chương_files]

There is truth, doubtless, in the remark, that we are enriched less by what we have than by what we hope to have. As the poetic art in Canada has had little of an appreciable past, it may therefore be thought that the songs that are to catch and retain the ear of the nation lie still in the future, and are as yet unsung. Doubtless the chords have yet to be struck that are to give to Canada the songs of her loftiest genius; but he would be an ill friend of the country’s literature who would slight the achievements of the present in reaching solely after what, it is hoped, the coming time will bring. But whatever of lyrical treasure the future may enshrine in Canadian literature, and however deserving may be the claims of the volumes of verse that have already appeared from the native press, I am bold to claim for these productions of Mrs. MacLean’s muse a high place in the national collection and a warm corner in the national heart. – Summary by G. Mercer Adam, in the preface.     [chương_files]

THE ILLUSTRATED WAR NEWS, N.B.–REMOVE INSETTED LEAFLET, DEC. 30 1914. THE GREAT WAR. In reviewing the events of the last week throughout the world-wide area of war, let us begin with the Dark Continent, where everything went in our favour–very brilliantly so. First of all, then, we may now be said to have completed our conquest of the German Cameroon country by taking possession of the whole of the railway which runs northward from Bonabari, and is now in the hands of our troops. A similar fate is reserved, at no distant date, for German South Africa, against which General Botha–a man no less brave and dashing as a soldier than sagacious as a statesman–is preparing to lead a conquering force. Having stamped out the rebellion within the Union itself–crushing it literally like a beetle–he is now addressing himself to the task.     [chương_files]

The Scrap Book Sampler

Rate this audiobook

18 works — two non-fic articles & one short fiction or poetry each — from issues March, April, May, June, July, & August 1906 of The Scrap Book, Volume 1, edited by Frank Munsey. As he states in the editorial of the April 1906 issue (Vol 1, Iss 2) this was a sort of supplement to the editor’s popular monthly, Munsey’s Magazine. The Scrap Book is very like an American version of Punch with many short, often humorous articles interspersed with at least one short story, some poetry, and several longer non-fic pieces. The Scrap Book ran up to 1922.     [chương_files]
