CARROLL A. WILSON Thirteen Author Collections of the Nineteenth Century AND Five Centuries of Familiar Quotations Edited by JEAN C. S. WILSON and DAVID A. RANDALL Privately Printed for CHARLES SCRIBNERS SONS New York 1950 V Contents OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES 451 ANTHONY TROLLOPE 657 JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER 705 KANSAS GUV WM PUBLIC LIBRARY HeC G72 439 OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES 1809-1894 Oliver Wendell Holmes A CATALOGUE OF THE OFFICERS AND STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY IN CAMBRIDGE. OCTOBER, 1825. Cambridge, 1825. Holmes is listed among the freshmen, on p. 17. With much curi ous data. College board was 1.75 a week, board in town has been of late from 2 to 3 a week, and the estimated expenses for the college year totalled 176. This was the first Harvard catalogue in I2mo form. ORDER OF PERFORMANCES FOR EXHIBITION, TUESDAY, APRIL 29, 1828. Leaflet, 4 pp. Cambridge, 1828. Hitherto unknown. Holmes appears as No. 7, An English Translation, from Sallust The Speech of Caius Memmius. A MS in Holmes hand is preserved in the Harvard archives photo stat with this. To date it has never been printed. Other speakers were William H. Channing, Edward H. Hedge, and Robert C. Winthrop. THE HARVARD REGISTER. 1827-1828. Cambridge, 1828. Copy formerly belonging to James H. Wilder, Holmes class mate, who has identified in pencil the bulk of the authors, and indi cates as Holmes the article Periodical Publications, at p. 76 May, 1827, signed W. H. If this identification is true, it is Holmes first published work, but in spite of the analogy of the sig nature with H. H. Edward Holyoke Hedge, it is certainly not true. Andrews Nortons copy, owned by H. V. Bail, attributes the article to William H. Brooks, 1827, as do four copies in the Har vard library, and the recently discovered wrappered copy of the May, 1827, issue belonging to John H. Warland, 1827. One of the Harvard copies attributes the poem at p, 27, Napoleons Depar ture to St, Helena, to Holmes, but the others unite in giving its author as John H Warland it is signed H. Various letters arc laid in concerning this publication, including four from P. K. Foky. In this collection only for historical purpose, since the above and other evidence proves that it has nothing by Holmes. 453 454 OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES LINES TO A YOUNG LADY. MS, without title, 4 x 3, three 6-line stanzas and one 4-line stanza. Support ing documents. Salem 1828. Earliest Holmes manuscript in private hands. Wholly unpub lished, and preceded in poetry only by his little-boy poem, in Abiels hand, in the E. J. Holmes papers, the Andover translation from Virgil, and perhaps the green bantling poem, q. v. The supporting documents tell the story. The poem was written for Marianne C. D. Silsbee maiden name not given as shown by a 1913 statement from a descendant. The date, 1828, comes from the envelope which enclosed them. They were written at Salem, where Holmes sometimes passed a part of the vacation with a married sister Mrs. Upham. With this is a charming a. l. s. and envelope of 1879 rom Holmes to Mrs. Silsbee, referring to early college days, my visits to Salem, etc. Marianne was then 14. The verses are undistinguished, but accurate, rhyming ab, ab, ce, a metre rarely used by Holmes. ORDER OF EXERCISES FOR COMMENCEMENT, 26 August 1829. 410 leaflet, 4 pp. Cambridge, 1829. Holmes is of course listed as one of those graduating and No. 9 is A Poem. OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES, Cambridge A contempo rary hand has endorsed the length of each contribution, and its quality, from which we learn that the poem began at 1 2 152 and took eight minutes in delivery, and was ggR which high praise b given to only one of the other twenty-eight participants, The ex ercises began at 10 40 A.

O Pioneers!
Author: Willa Cather
Publisher: Modernista
ISBN: 9181080794
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
When the young Swedish-descended Alexandra Bergson inherits her father's farm in Nebraska, she must transform the land from a wind-swept prairie landscape into a thriving enterprise. She dedicates herself completely to the land—at the cost of great sacrifices. O Pioneers! [1913] is Willa Cather's great masterpiece about American pioneers, where the land is as important a character as the people who cultivate it. WILLA CATHER [1873-1947] was an American author. After studying at the University of Nebraska, she worked as a teacher and journalist. Cather's novels often focus on settlers in the USA with a particular emphasis on female pioneers. In 1923, she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for the novel One of Ours, and in 1943, she was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
