I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will, which I now exert to leave you.

Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre (via bookmania)

“Life is so short, so fragile, so mystifying. After all, how many people do we actually love in the course of a lifetime? Just a few, a tiny few. When most of them are gone, the map of your inner world changes.”

—Paul Auster, born on this day in 1947, The Art of Fiction No. 178, interviewed by Michael Wood in “The Paris Review” no. 167 (Fall 2003)

The Romantics by crinolinedream

Giving brings happiness in every state of its expression. We experience joy in forming the intention to be generous; we experience joy in the actual act of giving something; and we experience joy in remembering the fact that we have given.

Ezra Pound Poetic & Literary View

Pound calls for knowledge of the human nature of man, since,”it is obvious that ethics are based on the nature of man, just as it is obvious that civics are based upon the nature of man when living together in groups”. This necessary knowledge can only be supplied by the arts especially by poetry, which in consequence are given the status of an anthropology distinct from the other sciences.…

The shot heard round the world…

On 28 June 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, along with his wife Sophie, was assassinated in Sarajevo; by 4 August the world was at war. How did the death of one man lead to the deaths of 16 million from the trenches of northern France to the fort of Tsingtao?

We have a timeline of events on Oxford Reference, another on our blog (also check it for some day-by-day blogging of events), and of course, the resources we’re sharing here on Tumblr .

One hundred years ago, no one knew what horrors lay ahead. Remember to wear your poppies this November and keep tumbling Great War history.

Andrew Marvell's "The Definition of Love": An Analytical & Critical Overview

Andrew Marvell’s “The Definition of Love”: An Analytical & Critical Overview

My love is of a birth as rare As ’tis for object strange and high; It was begotten by Despair Upon Impossibility.

Magnanimous Despair alone Could show me so divine a thing Where feeble Hope could ne’er have flown, But vainly flapp’d its tinsel wing.

And yet I quickly might arrive Where my extended soul is fixt, But Fate does iron wedges drive, And always crowds itself betwixt.

For Fate with…
