 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Italian Literature   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
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).

In all dialects of Kurmânji, Gurâni now simply means "lyric poetry" or "balladry." This vernacular, along with its dialect Awrâmani/Hewrâmi, was in fact until early modern times the language of polite society and belles lettres in most of Kurdistan, irrespective of the dominant spoken local dialect.
But also, it is only in the past two centuries that South Kurmânji has spread to occupy the crucial areas of central and eastern Kurdistan at the expense of Gurâni, thus gaining a large number of speakers and hence the potential and the status required for a literary language.
A number of better-known pieces of Kurdish literature also appeared in that country, but these were often targeted as propaganda pieces to attract Kurds from beyond the Soviet borders, rather than having been written just to benefit the small, widely dispersed population of Soviet Kurds.

Literature I: A student planning to major in the Literature or Writing Programs must take one Literature I course, usually in the first year.
Among the issues to be addressed are the peculiar narrative logic of the Gogolian absurd, the phantasmagoric city of St. Petersburg, and the interrelationship of the demonic, divine and ethical in the satiric context.
The course is especially intended to encourage students to understand the production of literature as an intimately historical process, to read writers together as well as separately, and to begin reading with a greater awareness of genre, convention and form as well as culture or ideology.

The term "vesica piscis" is first recorded in literature in 1809, but is no doubt much older.
The Vesica Piscis is made by linking two cicles together, bringing the outside edge of each to the midway point of the other.
On Cyprus, Mary to this day is worshipped as "Panaghia Aphroditessa." The connections are many: the Vesica Piscis illumines the common heritage of Christianity and the Goddess traditions it absorbed, traditions it would later vilify and all but destroy.

American Children’s Literature changed in 1809 with the publication of George Mason Weems’ The Life of Washington the Great, with its well known (but invented) story of the young and future president chopping down his father’s cherry tree.
Before that, America’s young were given biographies about children who were virtuous in a religious way.
This comic touch is just the right counterbalance to this earnest story because it reminds us that, besides grit and determination, problems are just as often solved (or dissolved) by wit and humor.
