The Player Queen

W. B. Yeats

The Player Queen

William Butler Yeats was born near Dublin in 1865, and was encouraged from a young age to pursue a life in the arts. He attended art school for a short while, but soon found that his talents and interest lay in poetry rather than painting. His father's love of reading aloud exposed Yeats early on to William Shakespeare, the Romantic poets and the pre-Raphaelites, and developed an interest in Irish myths and folklore. As a result, he became an instrumental figure in the «Irish Literary...

Alexander the Great

Jean Racine

Alexander the Great

The 17th century dramatist Jean Racine was considered, along with Molière and Corneille, as one of the three great playwrights of his era. The quality of Racine's poetry has been described as possibly his most important contribution to French literature and his use of the alexandrine poetic line is one of the best examples of such use noted for its harmony, simplicity and elegance. While critics over the centuries have debated the worth of Jean Racine, at present, he is widely considered a...

John Bull's Other Island

GEORGE BERNARD SHAW

John Bull's Other Island

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) is revered as one of the great British dramatists, credited not only with memorable works, but the revival of the then-suffering English theatre. Shaw was born in Dublin, Ireland, left mostly to his own devices after his mother ran off to London to pursue a musical career. He educated himself for the most part, and eventually worked for a real estate agent. This experience founded in him a concern for social injustices, seeing poverty and general unfairness afoot,...

Charles Monroe Sheldon

In His Steps

"In His Steps" is a classic of Christian literature whose premise centers on the idea of emulating Christ in one's everyday life. When faced with the challenges of everyday life the book suggests that one should ask oneself, «What would Jesus do?» This simple maxim creates a profound way of looking at life and both the common and morally challenging dilemmas that one might face in life.
