The Literature of Ecstasy. E-book. Formato PDF ebook di Albert Mordell

I shall hence deal in this volume largely with emotional or impassioned prose; for it belongs to the literature of ecstasy, although it is Often termed poetic prose, or some times disparagingly, prose poetry. Under this term I shall include not only the so — called fine writing but emotional passages in the language of the average man, dialogues from prose dramas, novels and short stories, and I shall also regard criticism, essays and works on science and philosophy highly charged with feeling as part of the province of the literature of ecstasy. This work becomes thus a treatise on poetics, and will present a new definition of poetry which will include all emotional prose writing.
