Book Description
Excerpt from Celebration of the Semi-Centennial Anniversary: Of the Albany Academy Albany, June 23, 1863 Fifty years had passed since the Albany Academy received a corporate existence. In that half-century, Albany itself had received a new life. It had wakened to commercial strength; the grasp of the canal and the railways had lifted it up to wealth and to power, and the jubilee of the great school of the city, even though it came in an hour of evil, was welcomed by a large circle of the community. The Albany Academy had been firmly founded. It had received the attention of the city when that city was yet so small as to concentrate its judgment in public affairs. It had received the care and good will of the stately old men of the colonial and revolutionary time, who, many of them, survived till the period when its organization was determined. The liberality and good taste of the times, had enshrined it in a noble building. It was in all respects worthy of the great word Learning. The trustees of the Academy, who had watched faithfully over its career, some of them for a long series of years, were gratified when the proposition was made to signalize its fiftieth year of life, by calling together its Alumni and its Students, and as the plan for the appropriate celebration of such day developed it was found that everywhere the love for the Old School, was vivid, and that a response in favor of the proposition was in readiness.

Languages : en
Pages : 948
Book Description
"Consequently, to fill the gaps within the correspondence, 542 editorial entries are chronologically interspersed for letters both by and to Melville for which no full text has been located but for which some evidence survives. These entries, like the editorial headnotes for the known letters, flesh out the specific historical and biographical contexts for the unlocated letters. Both supply Horth's full annotations, placing circumstances, persons, and allusions, from a wide range of documentary and scholarly sources, and drawing upon family archives of both Melville and his wife, including the recently recovered portion, now in the New York Public Library, of a trove preserved by his sister Augusta." "The aim of this edition, volume fourteen in the Northwestern-Newberry Edition of The Writings of Herman Melville, is to present a text as close to the author's intention at the time of inscription as his difficult handwriting or other surviving evidence permits. On this basis, the texts earlier presented in The Letters of Herman Melville (1960), edited by Merrell R. Davis and William H. Gilman, have been revised, with differences in almost every letter in spelling and punctuation, and some forty-five differences in wording. Fifty-two newly discovered letters by Melville, more than half of which are first published here, are added to those printed in the 1960 edition. This text of Correspondence is an Approved Text of the Committee on Scholarly Editions (Modern Language Association of America)."--BOOK JACKET.
