	DUTCH LITERATURE - LoveToKnow Article on DUTCH LITERATURE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		During an embassy in Rome (1411-1412) this eminent diplomatist made himself acquainted with the writings of Boccaccio, and commenced a vast poem on the course of love, Der Minnen Loep,5 which is a wonderful mixture of classical and Biblical instances of amorous adventures set in a framework of didactic philosophy.
		The recent literature of Holland presents the interesting phenomenon of an aesthetic revolution, carefully and cleverly planned, crowned with unanticipated success, and dying away in a languor encouraged b~y the complete ~ absence of organized resistance.
		Dutch literature presented features of remarkable interest between 1882 and 1888, but since that time the general heightening of the average of merit, the abandonment of the old dry conventions, and a recognition of the artistic value of words and forms, are more evident to a foreign observer than any very important single expression.

	The Flowering of Japanese Literature
		History as literature is called historiography, or "the writing of history." Early Japanese historiography is dominated by mythical tales and unverifiable events.
		The flowering and proliferation of literature in the Heian period was in part made possible by the introduction of a new writing system that was purely phonetic, hiragana.
		However, since the novel primarily concerns the knowledge that things pass away, the refinement chronicled in the novel is seen from a nostalgic point of view, a way of life or a shining moment in Heian culture that, at the time of the writing of the novel, had passed away.

	Department of Comparative Literature
		The discipline of Comparative Literature is based on the assumption that the study of single texts and cultures is enriched by a knowledge of the other texts and cultures surrounding them.
		Comparative Literature views literature from a broad and inclusive perspective where philosophy, anthropology, history, and literary theory come together, and where drama, the visual arts, and modern media suggest crucial comparisons.
		What also makes this study of literature comparative is that it examines texts not ordinarily seen as literary for their uses of language and traces the effects of such literature on cultural representations of gender, race, and class.

	A Critique of Socialist Realism - Essentials Of Unification Thought (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Literature must become part of the common cause of the proletariat, "a cog and a screw" of one single great Social-Democratic mechanism set in motion by the entire politically-conscious vanguard of the entire working class.
		For us writers, it is necessary in our life and in our creative work to stand on the high viewpoint-and only on that viewpoint that can see clearly all of the filthy crimes of capitalism, all of its mean and bloody intentions, and all of the greatness of the heroic activities of the proletariat.
		To put this another way, writing poetry and novels, painting, and so forth, should all be carried out for the purpose of exposing the crimes of capitalism and praising socialism, and works should be created to inspire readers and viewers to stand up for revolution, with a burning righteous mind.

	Amazon.ca: Books: Women Writers of Meiji and Taisho Japan: Their Lives, Works and Critical Reception, 1868-1926 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		After centuries of repression of the female voice in literature, the Meiji (1868-1912) and Taisho (1912-1926) periods in Japanese history saw important changes in both the way women wrote and the way they were read.
		However, even the most accepted female writers of these two eras were judged by criteria different from those applied to men, and only the most conservative were praised by the (male) critics.
		The text is appropriate for both well-read scholars of Japanese literature and newcomers to the works of the "fair ladies of the back chamber," as these creative and driven writers were once called.

		Meeting with army officers at Fort Weld outside Denver, the Cheyenne chief, Black Kettle, agrees to lead his people back to their Sand Creek reservation in order to restore peace after Indian raids on ranches in the area.
		General Philip H. Sheridan takes command of U.S. forces in the West, proposing to bring peace to the plains by exterminating the herds of buffalo that support the Indians' way of life: "Kill the buffalo and you kill the Indians," he says.
		In both cases, the tribes' refusal to give up their free-ranging traditions and remain confined within the territory assigned to them leads to devastating warfare.
