	Russian Literature - LoveToKnow 1911
		The style of Russian literature which prevailed from the time of Lomonosov was wholly based upon the French or pseudo-classical school.
		During the last generation of the 19th century most of the Titans of her literature departed, and cannot be said to have left successors of equal merit.
		The foundation of the Little Russian literature (written, as opposed to the oral) was laid by Ivan Kotliarevskiy (1769-1838), whose travesty of part of the Aeneid enjoys great popularity among some of his countrymen.

	Italian Literature
		This century in Italy, as elsewhere, is the golden age of vernacular ascetical and mystical literature, producing a rich harvest of translations from the Scriptures and the Fathers, of spiritual letters, sermons, and religious treatises no less remarkable for their fervour and unction than for their linguistic value.
		Also in religious literature we have the ascetical letters of B. Giovanni Dominici (died 1419), a strenuous opponent of the pagan tendencies of the classical revival, and the vernacular sermons (1427) of St. Bernardine of Siena.
		Political considerations colour most of the literature of the middle of the century, whether it be the historical writings of Cesare Balbo (1789-1853), the satirical and patriotic poems of Giuseppe Giusti (1809-50), the revolutionary lyrics of Gabriele Rossetti (1783-1854), the tragedies of Giovanbattista Niccolini (1782-1861), or the once admired romances of Francesco Domenico Guerrazzi (1804-73).

	French Literature - Search View - MSN Encarta
		By the middle of the 17th century, authors and readers belonged to the same tightly knit society centred on Paris and the court, and literature’s principal focus was the life of the aristocracy and the upper-middle classes.
		In De la Littérature (On Literature, 1800) and De l’Allemagne (On Germany, 1810) she argues that aesthetic judgements should be relative, not absolute, and should be made in the light of geographical and historical factors.
		Thus, she asserts, the passionate, imaginative literature of northern Europe is as valid as the imported Classicism of the Mediterranean: and moreover, it has a heart and soul.

		Thus many of their kings and nobles had Persian names; Persian also were most words used in connexion with horses and the chase, with war and army, with dress, trade and coinage, calendar, weights and measures, with court and political institutions, with music, medicine, school, education, literature and the arts.
		The Armenians had a temple literature of their own, which was destroyed in the 4 th and 5th centuries by the Christian clergy, so thoroughly that barely twenty lines of it Literature.
		There was no epic or romance literature; although this was not lacking in the contiguous country of Georgia, where there seem to have always been knights and ladies willing to read and keep alive a literature of poetry and narrative, not altogether suitable for monks, and more akin to Persian literature.

	ARTS LIBRARY @ YALE
		All branches of the literature of art were cultivated in antiquity although, of course, only a fragment of this body of writing has survived.
		As the final genre of classical art literature there remains to be considered the poetic or theoretical description of (real or fictive) works of art, the so-called "ekphrasis." The numerous epigrams about classical works of art in the Greek Anthology, the descriptions of paintings in the Eikones (Imagines) of the younger Philostratos (3rd cent.

		Consequently Romanic literatures in general (and this is especially true of Provençal, as it does not extend beyond the medieval period) afford only an incomplete representation of the intellectual development of each country.
		From the beginning the sentiments, real or assumed, of the poets are expressed in such a refined and guarded style that some historians, over-estimating the virtue of the ladies of that time, have been misled to the belief that the love of the troubadour for the mistress of his thoughts was generally platonic and conventional.
		But in any case it is easy to understand that, the countries of the langue d'oil having a full developed literature of their own suited to the taste of the people, the troubadours generally preferred to go to regions where they had less to fear in the way of competition.

	French literature. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		French prose literature began with the writings of the chroniclers and historians, among them Geoffroi de Villehardouin, Jean de Joinville, Jean Froissart, and Philippe de Comines, last of the major medieval historians.
		The French novel—Diderot and Marivaux contributed to its literary form—gained popularity with the works of Alain René Le Sage, Abbé Prevost, and Jacques Henri Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, and by the end of the century was among the foremost of literary genres.
		Another significant form of literature was the memoir; among the many writers of the period who excelled at this sort of autobiography were Mathieu Marais, Edmond Barbier, and Jean François Marmontel.

		It is a well-recognized right of modern scholarship to question and emend many of its readings, but the text is, so to say, in possession, and it must be confessed that many of the corrections suggested by some of our modern critics are more arbitrary than scientific.

	Meridian Institute - Home Page
		Although there is little specific literature on colonic irrigations, a review of the literature on related procedures such as enemas and sigmoidoscopies suggests that the risk of serious adverse effects is very low when the irrigations are performed by trained personnel using appropriate equipment.
		That debate was not resolved by scientific research on colonics, but rather from a combination of hostility toward colonics by the opponents of quackery that made it difficult for research to be done, and the shift in medical practice from physical therapies to drug therapies.
		He summarizes the literature on colonic function, making the point that the natural function of the colon is to dehydrate feces, and that this needs no help from repeated colonics.

		Through her "Society of Friendship," a formally organized unit whose members took classical pseudonyms, Philips maintained a social network of women-identified women, whose relationships with each other she documented in her poetry.

		Also known in her lifetime for her translations from the French of several plays by Corneille, Philips is best known today for her poems, authoritatively printed in one short posthumous volume in 1667.

		Our discussion of the empirical literature generates ideas and suggestions for future research into the overall importance of technological asymmetries in determining both industry net trade flows and each country's overall trade balance.

		While both have been present in the literature, the latter is by far the more prevalent.

		The growth of English settlement in neighboring New England and conflict between England and the Netherlands eventually spelled the end of New Netherland, as Governor Peter Stuyvesant was forced to surrender New Amsterdam--soon to be renamed New York--to an English fleet in 1664.
		The Dutch influence on America far outlasted the end of the colony, and can be seen in the many Dutch place names in New York, New Jersey, and elsewhere; in the architectural styles introduced by the Dutch settlers; and in the continued presence of the Dutch Reformed Church.
		Nieuw-Amsterdam had in 1664, het jaar dat het van Nederlandse in Engelse handen overging en New York werd, circa 1500 inwoners.

	glbtq >> literature >> English Literature: Renaissance
		The most significant lesbian voice in poetry of the English Renaissance is that of Katherine Philips, who was known as "The English Sappho." More than half of her collected poems, which were published posthumously in 1664 and 1667, deal with her love for other women, addressed in pastoral names like "Lucasia" or "Rosania."
		The great masterpiece of homoerotic poetry in the Renaissance (and, indeed, in English literature generally) is Shakespeare's Sonnets, published in a pirated edition in 1609 though the individual poems were probably written in the mid-1590s.
		Yet, by virtue of its inscription of a homosexual subjectivity, it has a particular importance in literary history and in gay literature.

	The Scientists: Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727).
		One law was that there did exist an attractive force (gravity); it exists between any two particles of matter.
		He developed his explanation of this natural law as it relates to light between the years 1664 and 1666.
		This force described by Newton was thought to be of equal application throughout the universe, here on earth and, out there, among the cosmos; it came to be called "universal gravitation." It is this same force that will haul the ungriped coffee cup crashing to the floor, and keeps the celestial objects in their path.

		They lived first in Boston and in 1664 moved to North Andover, where Bradstreet lived for the rest of her life.
