I.
WE LEFT behind the painted buoy
That tosses at the harbor-mouth;
And madly danced our hearts with joy,
As fast we fleeted to the South:
How fresh was every sight and sound
On open main or winding shore!
We knew the merry world was round,
And we might sail for evermore.
II.
Warm broke the breeze against the brow,
Dry sang the tackle, sang the sail:
The Lady's-head upon the prow
Caught the shrill salt, and sheer'd the gale.
The broad seas swell'd to meet the keel,
And swept behind: so quick the run,
We felt the good ship shake and reel,
We seem'd to sail into the Sun!
III.
How oft we saw the Sun retire,
And burn the threshold of the night,
Fall from his Ocean-lane of fire,
And sleep beneath his pillar'd light!
How oft the purple-skirted robe
Of twilight slowly downward drawn,
As thro' the slumber of the globe
Again we dash'd into the dawn!
IV.
New stars all night above the brim
Of waters lighten'd into view;
They climb'd as quickly, for the rim
Changed every moment as we flew.
Far ran the naked moon across
The houseless ocean's heaving field,
Or flying shone, the silver boss
Of her own halo's dusky shield;
V.
The peaky islet shifted shapes,
High towns on hills were dimly seen,
We past long lines of Northern capes
And dewy Northern meadows green.
We came to warmer waves, and deep
Across the boundless east we drove,
Where those long swells of breaker sweep
The nutmeg rocks and isles clove.
VI.
By peaks that flamed, or, all in shade,
Gloom'd the low coast and quivering brine
With ashy rains, that spreading made
Fantastic plume or sable pine;
By sands and steaming flats, and floods
Of mighty mouth, we scudded fast,
And hills and scarlet-mingled woods
Glow'd for a moment as we past.
VII.
O hundred shores of happy climes,
How swiftly stream'd ye by the bark!
At times the whole sea burn'd, at times
With wakes of fire we tore the dark;
At times a carven craft would shoot
From havens hid in fairy bowers,
With naked limbs and flowers and fruit,
But we nor paused for fruit nor flowers.
VIII.
For one fair Vision ever fled
Down the waste waters day and night,
And still we follow'd where she led,
In hope to gain upon her flight.
Her face was evermore unseen,
And fixt upon the far sea-line;
But each man murmur'd, 'O my Queen,
I follow till I make thee mine.'
IX.
And now we lost her, now she gleam'd
Like Fancy made of golden air,
Now nearer to the prow she seem'd
Like Virtue firm, like Knowledge fair,
Now high on waves that idly burst
Like Heavenly Hope she crown'd the sea
And now, the bloodless point reversed,
She bore the blade of Liberty.
X.
And only one among us-him
We please not-he was seldom pleased:
He saw not far: his eyes were dim:
But ours he swore were all diseased.
'A ship of fools' he shriek'd in spite,
'A ship of fools' he sneer'd and wept.
And overboard one stormy night
He cast his body, and on we swept.
XI.
And never sail of ours was furl'd,
Nor anchor dropt at eve or morn;
We loved the glories of the world,
But laws of nature were our scorn;
For blasts would rise and rave and cease,
But whence were those that drove the sail
Across the whirlwind's heart of peace,
And to and thro' the counter-gale?
XII.
Again to colder climes we came,
For still we follow'd where she led:
Now mate is blind and captain lame,
And half the crew are sick or dead.
But blind or lame or sick or sound
We follow that which flies before:
We know the merry world is round,
And we may sail for evermore.

All the social and political aspects aside, it's just a well written novel. It strikes a unique balance between romanticism and realism which makes it very enjoyable to read if you like old literature.
ITT: recommend cool books that you find
Written in the middle of the 19th century, Debit and Credit (AKA Soll und Haben) by Gustav Freytag is a very interesting work. It was one of the most popular and critically acclaimed German novels ever written until 1945. Supposedly wealthy German fathers would buy it as a gift for their sons when they reached adulthood because of it's encapsulation of Prussian middleclass values. The reason it fell out of favor after WWII is because of it's negative portrayals of Jews and Poles, although not all Jews and Poles in the novel are villains. The main story is about a young German businessman who gets caught up in a struggle between a declining Silesian aristocratic family and Jewish moneylenders.All the social and political aspects aside, it's just a well written novel.

She said, "Oh, like you're doing now?"
I was taken aback, and all I could say was "Huh?" but she kept cutting me off and going "huh? huh? huh?" and closing her hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in her hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like "Maam, you need to pay for those first." At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually "to prevent any electrical infetterence," and then turned around and winked at me. I don't even think that's a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, she kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Imagine asking what's stolen my powers, you
Stinking whore, all this endless time,
When you've one black tooth, and when ripe old age
Furrows your brow with wrinkles,
When an ugly hole like a leathery old cow's
Gapes between withered buttocks!
Yet that flabby chest, and those breasts, like the teats
Of a mare, can still excite me,
And that spongy belly, and those scrawny thighs,
Set on those swollen legs.
Bless you, and may masculine figures in triumph
Bear your funeral along.
Let no married woman wander about, weighed down
By rounder fruits than yours.
What if the little works of the Stoics prefer
To nest among silken pillows?
Illiterate sinews stiffen no less, do they:
Bewitched, it droops no less?
Either way to rouse it from a fastidious groin
It's your mouth must labour hard.

This astounded me because ducks croak fine, even mozart includes them in his music. All there was lest me to do was jump down hitting bells and sounding music, and we continued.
My shadow rustling with the leaves pointed out an entrance to me, an archway, with each side an archway, with each side an archway, with each side an archway, gothic, naturally, this is Kopenhagen, city of faust, because I see him in the taverns and he is the harbinger of water and paint and people, yes indeed, ALL people.
So I entered crawling, as I couldnt remove my shoes, a blue dome, the ocean, featureless unlike the outside brimming with birds.

I've been overthinking this recently; why read translated fiction and poetry? What is the value in reading something that isn't in the author's own language/voice? Can poetry even truly be translated? If not, wouldn't that carry over into fiction as a whole, since sound, flow, word choice, wordplay, and cultural/linguistic implications are so important to the experience and meaning of a story? Am I just having some sort of midwit short circuit here?

Psychological Depth is a Crutch
The mark of a good character is not depth. It's making them feel lifelike. Not necessarily in the sense that seem like the kind of people you see in real life, but in the sense that they feel like living creatures with their own independent thought process. Great writers can do this with only a few lines. Bad writers, on the other hand, cannot so they compensate by adding layers and layers irrelevant "depth" to make them seem lifelike when they're really not. A mustache twirling villain who ties a damsel to railroad track because he has mommy issues is no better than one who does it just because he's evil. It adds nothing to the character or the overall story in any meaningful way.

how is it so that when you expand it, things dont be wrong, or, cross each others
one thing i figured is that, keeping amounts, like character will have consistent "value" of color or shape, or, points, and keeping this makes it right….but it still dont feel quite right, like itll still, plot hole somehow.

The ending of Don Quixote is weird, isn't it? He comes to his senses just before he dies, but no one is happy about it. In fact, they seem to be more bothered by it than they are by the fact that he's dying. The last chapter has this uneasy feeling throughout it, like the last episode of that Dinosaurs show when the snow starts falling at the end. There's a sense that this isn't right. I wonder if, despite what the Spanish critics seem say, the romantics were right when they said the book is really about the struggle between the passions and ideals of the individual vs. the wicked constraints of the world. I mean, if Cervantes was just trying to attack fantastical stories and the people who read and write them, why was his very next novel, The Travails of Persiles and Sigismunda, which he began writing at the exact same time as Don Quixote, a fantastical story played straight? That would make him a hypocrite. Am I just coping by reading too much into the book because I like fantastical stories and I don't want to admit that I'm being mocked?

Like if theyre gonna put out fire, they d use water but where does that water should be from? A well nearby? What if no well is present? Then it ll be a scene of failing to put fire.
But if theres water and they re still panicking, it d look kinda wrong.
It s just the whole thing
From the logic to realism.

Today begins a new chapter into the /lit/club. I made a fateful mistake by choosing the subject for the first nomination (Book Published 2 Years Ago) because of those bastards at the FBI. There are different resources vying for the vacancy filled by such a great site and I found one called
annas-archive.org which indexes a bunch of shadow sites.
Anyways without more stalling tactics. I present the list for this season and the nomination: World of Wonders

The Story of Civilization Part 11: The Age of Napoleon. I'm usually not a fan of Will Durant but this is book provides a good synopsis of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic era in France. Those parts of the book make a nice little companion piece to David Chandler's "Campaigns of Napoleon". The book spreads itself too thing, though, by trying to cover every facet of Western Civilization during that period. For example, there's an entire chapter dedicated to Beethoven and several more just about poets and philosophers of the time. It's just too much to tackle in a meaningful way in just a single volume. Even the three-volume Encyclopedia of French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars failed to do that. Interestingly, neither that work or this has a section about Edmund Burke. There are offhand mentions made here and there (usually portraying him as the embodiment of stuffy English opposition to the revolutionaries) but no serious examination of him like there is about the other significant English philosophers of his day. This is especially surprising from Durant given his fascination with the history of philosophy.
The Italian Wars 1494-1559. This is the book I could find covering what was essentially the first modern European conflict. It does a decent job of giving a rundown of the events without doing that gay pop-history thing of trying to be like a novel. Personally I would have liked a little more focus on the military aspect over the political but I realize that's just my own autism.
Four Princes: Henry VIII, Francis I, Charles V, Suliman the Magnificent and the Obsessions that Forged Modern Europe. This covers roughly the same period as the Italian Wars but focuses on the lives of the titular four rulers who dominated Europe in the first half of the 16th century. Most of the figures it discusses, outside of those four, are portrayed in a rather one-dimensional way. It reminded me of the documentaries the History Channel used to air before it became all about pawnshops and aliens. Overall, it's okay I guess.
China Condensed Absolute shit. It reads like a summery of a Wikipedia article but without citing any sources and even more fabrications. It presents highly contested theories (like the Huns being the same people as the Xiongnu) and legends as facts. It's also very biased; it glorifies China as much as it can while also pushing modern leftist ideas whenever possible. For example, there's a part where it suggest that a certain female usurper was only unpopular because of "male chauvinism". I'd recommend it as a book for small children if it wasn't full of so much bullshit.
China: A Macro History. This is a much better book on the history of China. The author was an officer in the Chinese Nationalist army so it's impossible for it to be unbiased regarding more modern Chinese history but there is much more of an effort to be objective than in the previous book. This book gives a sketch of Chinese history from the bronze age up to the 1990's about as well as any single volume work can.

Are things really as bad as they seem for aspiring authors? It seems like the only people who read new works of fiction are children and middle-aged women, and they only read books written put out by major publishers. I heard to get your stuff published by one of them you have to either already have some kind of following or you have to ghostwrite for someone else for awhile, and even then they'll force you to fill your story with pozz.
There's always self-publishing but does anyone read self-published works of serious fiction? There are so many other self-published books flooding the market that the chances of someone even coming across your book, let alone reading it, seem very slim.
I know getting into writing to make money is silly but what's the point of putting your work out there in the first place if no one is going to read it?

The eyes of truth are bright,
The lips of truth are ever closed,
The head of truth is upright.
The breast of truth stands forward,
The gaze of truth is straight,
Truth has neither fear nor doubt,
Truth has patience to wait.
The words of truth are touching,
The voice of truth is deep,
The law of truth is simple:
All that you sow you reap.
The soul of truth is flaming,
The heart of truth is warm,
The mind of truth is clear,
And firm through rain or storm.
Facts are but its shadows,
Truth stands above all sin;
Great be the battle in life,
Truth in the end shall win.
The image of truth is Christ,
Wisdom's message its rod;
Sign of truth is the cross,
Soul of truth is God.
Life of truth is eternal,
Immortal is its past,
Power of truth will endure,
Truth shall hold to the last.

Russian theories that French author Alexandre Dumas is Alexander Pushkin
Almost all the materials I found on this topic are in Russian. Here are a few articles.
A Comparison of the Signature of Pushkin with the Signature of Dumas
http://moj-golos.livejournal.com/1035203.html
The article above notes that although dueling was severely punished by Tsar Nikolas I, the Tsar made an exception and acted mercifully toward those involved in Pushkin's fatal duel, wherein officially Pushkin was killed. The article proposes that Pushkin faked his own death and notes that Pushkin's wife did not attend the funeral, as if that was faked too. He believes that Pushkin showed up in France as "Alexander Dumas", with a new French identity.
"It's not a secret that Nikolai I created in Europe a powerful spying network. In this project were included powerful leading minds of Russia, for example spies included I.S. Turgenev (a famous author) (1818-1883) and F.I. Tyutchev (1803-1873). Acceptable work was found for A S Pushkin too, wo after Karamzin's death was solidly helped with the position of a natural historian. There was no demand in Russia for that kind of work, but that kind of "vacancy", which was not hard to create, should have appeared in France, the main political and military enemy of Russia of the time."
The writer (I think it's Nina Milova) imagines that by posing as a French history writer, "Dumas" could gain access to France's historical archives.
The writer says that Pushkin's handwritten signatures are in question as to their autheticity, and that Dumas generally left no direct signatures, only signatures copied by correspondents.
She points out similarities between the writers, like how they were both Mulattos with similar appearances and who both knew French and Russian fluently. Pushkin wrote a work, Kinzhal, about Karl Zand, whereas Alexander Dumas wrote a work called Karl-Ludwig Zand.
Puskin and Dumas:
According to the writer, Dumas liked to tell a joke that his grandfather was African and that all he had in genetic common origin with ignorant racists was a monkey. But this is joke a giveaway, because the real Dumas only had an African grandmother, but Pushkin did have an African grandfather.
Alexander Dumas' alleged father was French general Thomas Dumas, who died in 1806 and whose wife and son were soon forgotten and lived in the provinces. So their son Alexander Dumas appeared to come from nowhere back into French public life in the 1820's. But practically none of the French associates of Thomas Dumas recognized him, only one Herzog De Foie gave him legal recognition papers.
The writer said she always racked his brains trying to see why the writer Dumas was so mean to the female character Miledy. He depicted her so badly and tortured her to death. The writer proposes that this was because of Pushkin's own mistreatment by his own wife, Natalya Goncharova. Like Atos falling in love with Miledy when she was 16, Pushkin fell in love with Goncharova when she was that age. Both Goncharova and Miledy remarried once. Miledy remarried in 1844, when Dumas wrote The Three Musketeers (1844-1845).
Nina Milova in her interview with Moskovsky Komsomolets, Pushkin lived after his duel and wrote under the pseudonym Dumas, says that she decided that he faked his death when she learned that his relatives were absent from his funeral. His father learned about the funeral two weeks after it.
http://www.mk.ru/social/2015/03/31/pushkin-vyzhil-posle-dueli-i-pisal-pod-psevdonimom-dyuma.html
Milova says that the doctors couldn't find the cause of death, nor find the fatal bullet. She says that the Russian nobility loved to travel to Western Europe for vacations, but she thinks it's strange that officially Pushkin never left Russia. Supposedly it was because he was considered an enemy of the state, but Milova says that this is not true, as archives show that he was an official of the Foreign Ministry. She thinks that his exile in the 1820's was a cover for his trips abroad, as "Dumas" first made a public appearance in Paris at that time (1822), after years in obscurity as a child. Meanwhile, she says that Pushkin's time in exile in 1822-1823 is a black hole in his own biography. She says that Pushkin's faking his own death would be a way to get out of his massive debts in Russia.
She proposes that in the novel The Count of Monte Cristo, "Dumas"/Pushkin intends to suggest that D'Antes was unfairly condemned for killing Pushkin. In real life Pushkin's French brother-in-law D'Antes was charged with killing Pushkin in a duel and was briefly imprisoned. In reality, D'Antes helped Pushkin escape to France. Meanwhile, in Dumas' novel, the protagonist "Edmond Dantes" escapes from unjust judgment and takes on a new identity as the Count of Monte Cristo.
When at one point Dumas dedicated a chapter to Pushkin, Milova interprets this as Dumas/Pushkin dedicating literature to himself in reality. Further, she notes that Dumas was a translator of Pushkin works into Russian, despite the fact that Dumas officially first went to Russia only in about 1858, ie. when Dumas was already over 60 years old. Dumas had a major interest in Russia, writing novels about the Decembrists and Caucasus. How could he get so fluent in Russian and and knowledgeable about Russia if he only went there first in his old age?
Another post in the thread mentioned that it was very common for members of the Russian upper class to speak French but very rare for a Frenchman to speak Russian. What are your thoughts on this theory? Is it possible or just another case of Slavs trying to LARP as Frenchmen?
Pushkin = Dumas theory
Have you ever heard of this theory, /lit/? It proposes that Aleksandr Pushkin and Alexandre Dumas were the same person. The most thorough explanation of the theory I could find was some old post on an Eastern Orthodox forum. I'm just copy-pasting it from there.Russian theories that French author Alexandre Dumas is Alexander Pushkin

Further, she notes that Dumas was a translator of Pushkin works into Russian, despite the fact that Dumas officially first went to Russia only in about 1858, ie. when Dumas was already over 60 years old. Dumas had a major interest in Russia, writing novels about the Decembrists and Caucasus. How could he get so fluent in Russian and and knowledgeable about Russia if he only went there first in his old age?
Another post in the thread mentioned that it was very common for members of the Russian upper class to speak French but very rare for a Frenchman to speak Russian. What are your thoughts on this theory? Is it possible or just another case of Slavs trying to LARP as Frenchmen?
