Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
The legend of William Tell takes on new meaning in this wonderful retelling by master storyteller H. E. Marshall. William Tell is the folk hero of Switzerland whose exploits were first recorded in a fifteenth-century Swiss chronicle.Set in the time of the first Swiss Confederacy, Tell's story runs alongside that of the struggle for independence waged against the Holy Roman Empire by the Alpine nation.According to the legend, Gessler, a newly-appointed Austrian ruler of two local regions, caused his hat to be placed on a raised a pole in the central square of a village, and ordered that all the townsfolk bow before it. When Tell refused to bow to the hat, Gessler ordered Tell's son to be seized. The tyrannical ruler then demanded that Tell shoot an apple off his son's head or both of them would be executed. Tell took the shot, and succeeded... From there, numerous incidents took place which led to the assassination of Gessler, an act that sparked the Swiss rebellion. There is no real evidence that William Tell actually existed or that the events recounted in the legend really took place. Marshall addresses it this way in her introduction:"Yet some people say that William Tell never lived. Let them visit the R�tli, Tell's Platte, the Hollow Way, and let them ask themselves whether Tell lives in the hearts of his countrymen or not."ContentsChapter I: How Gessler and Landenberg Came to Rule in SwitzerlandChapter II: The Story of Arnold of MelchthalChapter III: The Story of Gessler and StauffacherChapter IV: How the Cap of Austria Was Set UpChapter V: The Meeting of the Three PatriotsChapter VI: The Gathering on the R�tliChapter VII: William Tell and His Great ShotChapter VIII: The Escape of William TellChapter IX: Tell's Second ShotChapter X: How Castle Rossberg Was TakenChapter XI: How Castle Sarnen Was TakenChapter XII: How the Emperor Albrecht Met His DeathChapter XIII: The Battle of Morgarten

Show Don’t Tell
Author: William Noble
Publisher: The Write Thought, Inc
ISBN: 0981890857
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
If one hears one thing from every single writing instructor it’s, “Show, don’t tell.” “Don’t tell us he’s afraid of losing her, show us!” “Don’t tell us it’s a richly decorated room, show us!” “Don’t tell us the Russian tundra is cold, show us!” Easier said than done, and no one ever wrote a book on how to do it, that is until William Noble wrote this classic work a decade ago. From the use of dialogue to employing melodrama to developing incidents and anecdotes, Show Don’t Tell explains how to entertain your readers instead of lecturing to them. Written in Noble’s absorbing voice, Show Don’t Tell illustrates how to develop a dramatic framework using similes and metaphors, a focused point of view, steady pacing, increasing tension, and an appeal to the senses to create solid dramatic impact. In other words, how to show, not tell! Perfect for novelists, short story writers, and those interested in writing creative nonfiction.
