Very Good - PROOF COPY. 1964 1st Edition , Proof Copy WITCHCRAFT AND DEMONOLOGY IN SCOTT'S FICTION By Coleman O Parsons Author Bio: Coleman O. Parsons, also Coleman Parsons, (1905-1991), was a scholar, writer and professor of literature, last as Professor Emeritus of English at CUNY's City College. He was born in Ripley, Va., Parsons attended University of Southern California, University of Chicago before receiving his an A.B. (Artium Baccalaureus, A.B. or B.A.) at Columbia University and held a doctorate from Yale. Dr. Parsons, a premier authority on Scottish literature and culture, joined the City College faculty in 1937 and began teaching there full-time in 1947. Dr. Parsons was known as an excellent and challenging professor who participated heavily in intellectual and public life outside of the classroom. He was an active member and leader in the Andiron Club, an exclusive cultural and fraternal organization in New York City. Dr. Parson was also an active Freemason. He was the author of one of the most important critical works on Sir Walter Scott and nineteenth century Scottish literature, "Witchcraft and Demonology in Scott's Fiction," published in 1964, and wrote extensively for academic journals in the United States, Scotland, England and Germany. Synopsis: Critics and literary historians have often discussed Scott's place in the Romantic movement and in world literature, both as a poet and as the author of Waverley; his firm bedding in the tradition and culture of his own land received less consideration. Professor Parsons in this study takes up one important aspect of Scott's fictional world, the use of the supernatural in poetry and prose, and relates it to the attitudes of fellow Scots and to the rich store of Scottish literature and folklore which was at his disposal. The supernatural is traced in Scottish narrative poetry from Barbour to Burns and in prose fiction from Sir Walter's contemporaries, Hogg and Galt, to our own contemporaries, Neil Gunn and Eric Linklater. Within the large framework, the supernatural in Scott's work is related to his knowledge and experience and to his critical theory and practice. The term "supernatural" refers to those unearthly agents and forces, which men envisage but cannot understand and which operate, for the most part, outside religion. Among the phenomena the author considers are the warning spirit, the sibyl, astrology, German diablerie, local legends, ghosts, second sight, elemental spirits, fairies, demonology, poltergeists, curses, omens, dreams and prophecies' Binding: Softcover, Octavo (Standard) (8vo 6 × 9 in 152 × 229 mm ) Note: Binding/size selection follows standard bibliographic conventions and is approximate; exact measurements may vary.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. Frank Walts, John Sloan, Art Young, Glenn O. Coleman, Stuart Davis, Cornelia Barns, Randall Davey, George Bellows, Maurice Becker, A. Londoner, Elias Goldberg, Eugene Higgins (illustratore). 1st Edition. New York: The Masses Publishing Company, 1915. The June, 1915 issue (Volume VI, Number 9, whole number 49). Large Folio, illustrated stapled wraps, 27 pp. Very Good by any periodical standard; as the very inexpensively-produced budget-of-the-heart icon The Masses was, this example is certainly better than very good, by its own standard. Light crease the vertical length of cover; small nicks at front cover perimeter; larger chip at rear cover, lower left; modest toning to the remarkably healthy contents. See scans. Certainly one of the most seminal socio-political American publications of the last 200 years, The Masses was a collection of ideological art, opinion and reporting - usually contributed with little or no compensation - which strongly represented socialist / marxist values, but in a larger sense was representative of labor, women's rights, and radical left issues in general as those were at that time. Famous names of the era often contributed work, but the names of the regulars are themselves all now in history books. The now-timeless publication was shut down by the U.S. Government in 1918 on the basis of postal regulations, after two intense and ideologically-charged trials. Eastman and his sister, Crystal, then started The Liberator to carry on; after The Liberator closed its doors in 1926, The New Masses, under the primary leadership of Mike Gold, carried the radical flag. The Masses, as the first, is also the rarest. Text contributors to this issue of June, 1915 included Eastman, Carl Sandburg, Howard Brubaker, Harris Merton Lyon, Louis Untermeyer, Edmond McKenna, Elsie Clews Parsons, Frank Tanenbaum, Robert Carlton Brown, W.J. Robinson, Charles Grey, and Florence Kiper Frank. Art was contributed by Frank Walts, John Sloan, Art Young, Glenn O. Coleman, Stuart Davis, Cornelia Barns, Randall Davey, George Bellows, Maurice Becker, A. Londoner, Elias Goldberg, and Eugene Higgins, with Walts executing the front cover, and Davis the rear cover. Check out all of those names. An extraordinarily rare piece of American publishing and political history. l-lng2.
