The Dark Is Rising Sequence
The series is sometimes called The Dark Is Rising Sequence , which is the title of its UK omnibus edition ( first 1984 ) and its US boxed set edition ( first 1986 ) . It depicts a struggle between forces of good and evil called the Light and the Dark and is based on Arthurian legends , Celtic mythology , Norse mythology and English Folklore . Both magical and ordinary children are prominent throughout the series . It was inaugurated in 1965 with the U.K. publication of Over Sea , Under Stone by Jonathan Cape . The sequels were published 1973 to 1977 , almost simultaneously in the U.K. and the U.S. Volume four , The Grey King ( 1975 ) , won both the Newbery Medal , recognizing the year 's `` most distinguished contribution to American literature for children '' , and the inaugural Welsh Tir na n - Og Award for English - language books with Welsh background . The concluding Silver on the Tree ( 1977 ) also won the annual Tir na n - Og Award .
Ode on a Grecian Urn
I am at first inclined to agree ... But on re-reading the whole Ode , this line strikes me as a serious blemish on a beautiful poem , and the reason must be either that I fail to understand it , or that it is a statement which is untrue . And I suppose that Keats meant something by it , however remote his truth and his beauty may have been from these words in ordinary use . And I am sure that he would have repudiated any explanation of the line which called it a pseudo-statement ... The statement of Keats seems to me meaningless : or perhaps the fact that it is grammatically meaningless conceals another meaning from me .

Charles Dickens
Dickens 's serialisation of his novels was not uncriticised by other authors . In Robert Louis Stevenson 's novel The Wrecker , there is a comment by Captain Nares , investigating an abandoned ship : `` See ! They were writing up the log , '' said Nares , pointing to the ink - bottle . `` Caught napping , as usual . I wonder if there ever was a captain yet that lost a ship with his log - book up to date ? He generally has about a month to fill up on a clean break , like Charles Dickens and his serial novels . ''
When You Believe
The Prince of Egypt is an adaptation of the Biblical story of the Exodus . `` When You Believe '' is sung in the film by characters Tzipporah and Miriam , and a chorus of people departing from the slavery of Egypt to the Red Sea and the Promised Land . The protagonists of this ballad recall tough times that have caused them to question their own faith : they have prayed for many nights to God , but those prayers have seemed to remain unanswered , and now they wonder if their faith has been only a waste of time . Nevertheless , the main characters realize that although the times may be difficult , their faith should remain strong . As a bridge , a chorus of children sings excerpts of the Song of the Sea in Hebrew .
The Raven
Poe based the structure of `` The Raven '' on the complicated rhyme and rhythm of Elizabeth Barrett 's poem `` Lady Geraldine 's Courtship '' . Poe had reviewed Barrett 's work in the January 1845 issue of the Broadway Journal and said that `` her poetic inspiration is the highest -- we can conceive of nothing more august . Her sense of Art is pure in itself . '' As is typical with Poe , his review also criticizes her lack of originality and what he considers the repetitive nature of some of her poetry . About `` Lady Geraldine 's Courtship '' , he said `` I have never read a poem combining so much of the fiercest passion with so much of the most delicate imagination . ''
It Takes a Village
The book 's title is attributed to an African proverb : `` It takes a village to raise a child . '' The saying and its attribution as an `` African '' proverb were in circulation before it was adopted by Clinton as the source for the title of her book . Indeed , the saying previously provided the source for the title of a children 's book entitled It Takes a Village by Jane Cowen - Fletcher , published in 1994 .
Brave New World
Translations of the title often allude to similar expressions used in domestic works of literature : the French edition of the work is entitled Le Meilleur des mondes ( The Best of All Worlds ) , an allusion to an expression used by the philosopher Gottfried Leibniz and satirised in Candide , Ou l'Optimisme by Voltaire ( 1759 ) .
Novel
Many 19th - century authors dealt with significant social matters . Émile Zola 's novels depicted the world of the working classes , which Marx and Engels 's non-fiction explores . In the United States slavery and racism became topics of far broader public debate thanks to Harriet Beecher Stowe 's Uncle Tom 's Cabin ( 1852 ) , which dramatizes topics that had previously been discussed mainly in the abstract . Charles Dickens ' novels led his readers into contemporary workhouses , and provided first - hand accounts of child labor . The treatment of the subject of war changed with Leo Tolstoy 's War and Peace ( 1868 / 69 ) , where he questions the facts provided by historians . Similarly the treatment of crime is very different in Fyodor Dostoyevsky 's Crime and Punishment ( 1866 ) , where the point of view is that of a criminal . Women authors had dominated fiction from the 1640s into the early 18th century , but few before George Eliot so openly questioned the role , education , and status of women in society , as she did .
Education reform
Rousseau 's principal work on education is Emile : Or , On Education , in which he lays out an educational program for a hypothetical newborn 's education to adulthood . Rousseau provided a dual critique of both the vision of education set forth in Plato 's Republic and also of the society of his contemporary Europe and the educational methods he regarded as contributing to it ; he held that a person can either be a man or a citizen , and that while Plato 's plan could have brought the latter at the expense of the former , contemporary education failed at both tasks . He advocated a radical withdrawal of the child from society and an educational process that utilized the natural potential of the child and its curiosity , teaching it by confronting it with simulated real - life obstacles and conditioning it by experience rather than teaching it intellectually . His ideas were rarely implemented directly , but were influential on later thinkers , particularly Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi and Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel , the inventor of the kindergarten .

The Raven
`` The Raven '' is a narrative poem by American writer Edgar Allan Poe . First published in January 1845 , the poem is often noted for its musicality , stylized language , and supernatural atmosphere . It tells of a talking raven 's mysterious visit to a distraught lover , tracing the man 's slow fall into madness . The lover , often identified as being a student , is lamenting the loss of his love , Lenore . Sitting on a bust of Pallas , the raven seems to further distress the protagonist with its constant repetition of the word `` Nevermore '' . The poem makes use of folk , mythological , religious , and classical references .
The Tiger Who Came to Tea
The original artwork for the book is held by Seven Stories , a children 's literature centre in the UK .
Ecclesiastes
The book is a musing by a King of Jerusalem as he relates his experiences and draws lessons from them , often self - critical . The author , introducing himself as the son of David , discusses the meaning of life and the best way to live . He proclaims all the actions of man to be inherently hevel , meaning `` vain '' or `` futile '' , ( `` mere breath '' ) , as both wise and foolish end in death . Kohelet clearly endorses wisdom as a means for a well - lived earthly life . In light of this senselessness , one should enjoy the simple pleasures of daily life , such as eating , drinking , and taking enjoyment in one 's work , which are gifts from the hand of God . The book concludes with the injunction : `` Fear God , and keep his commandments ; for that is the whole duty of everyone '' ( 12 : 13 ) .
Ecclesiastes
Ecclesiastes has had a deep influence on Western literature . It contains several phrases that have resonated in British and American culture , and was quoted by Abraham Lincoln addressing Congress in 1862 . American novelist Thomas Wolfe wrote : `` ( O ) f all I have ever seen or learned , that book seems to me the noblest , the wisest , and the most powerful expression of man 's life upon this earth -- and also the highest flower of poetry , eloquence , and truth . I am not given to dogmatic judgments in the matter of literary creation , but if I had to make one I could say that Ecclesiastes is the greatest single piece of writing I have ever known , and the wisdom expressed in it the most lasting and profound . ''
The Dark Is Rising Sequence
Karen Patricia Smith wrote , `` Susan Cooper has come to be recognized as a major author of books for children and young adults . Her first work for children , Over Sea , Under Stone came as a response to a contest designed to honor the memory of E. Nesbit . Cooper 's major contribution to date has been The Dark Is Rising series , which greatly expands the mythical theme suggested in Over Sea , Under Stone and reveals Cooper 's extraordinary prowess as an author of fantasy ... The shadowy aspect of the conflict and the inability to ' read ' clearly the motivations of some of the characters are areas in which Cooper has been criticized . However , I feel that the ambiguity of protagonists and antagonists is a deliberate literary device . Rather than succumbing to artistic flaw , Cooper goes beyond the conventional expectations of her readers by inviting them to glimpse the complex , the unexplainable , and often the threatening aspects of mankind 's nature . By offering the thesis that the human psyche may manifest itself in explicit actions or present itself in a mysterious and often frustrating manner , Cooper exceeds the traditional presentations of good versus evil often found in fantasy literature .

The Twelve Days of Christmas (song)
The best known English version was first printed in English in 1780 in a little book intended for children , Mirth without Mischief , as a Twelfth Night `` memories - and - forfeits '' game , in which a leader recited a verse , each of the players repeated the verse , the leader added another verse , and so on until one of the players made a mistake , with the player who erred having to pay a penalty , such as offering up a kiss or a sweet .

Haiku
Henderson translated every hokku and haiku into a rhymed tercet ( a-b-a ) , whereas the Japanese originals never used rhyme . Unlike Yasuda , however , he recognized that 17 syllables in English are generally longer than the 17 on of a traditional Japanese haiku . Because the normal modes of English poetry depend on accentual meter rather than on syllabics , Henderson chose to emphasize the order of events and images in the originals . Nevertheless , many of Henderson 's translations were in the five - seven - five pattern .

Additional stanzas were written later by Sontonga and other writers , with the original verse translated into Sotho and Afrikaans , as well as English .

'' of the first printed English version . This popular variant is notable :

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Scholastic Corporation bought the U.S. rights at the Bologna Book Fair in April 1997 for US $105,000 , an unusually high sum for a children 's book . They thought that a child would not want to read a book with the word `` philosopher '' in the title and , after some discussion , the American edition was published in September 1998 under the title Rowling suggested , Harry Potter and the Sorcerer 's Stone . Rowling claimed that she regretted this change and would have fought it if she had been in a stronger position at the time . Philip Nel has pointed out that the change lost the connection with alchemy , and the meaning of some other terms changed in translation , for example from `` crumpet '' to `` muffin '' . While Rowling accepted the change from both the British English `` mum '' and Seamus Finnigan 's Irish variant `` mam '' to `` mom '' in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer 's Stone , she vetoed this change in the later books , which was then reversed in later editions of Philosopher 's Stone . However , Nel considered that Scholastic 's translations were considerably more sensitive than most of those imposed on British English books of the time , and that some other changes could be regarded as useful copyedits . Since the British editions of early titles in the series were published months prior to the American versions , some American readers became familiar with the British English versions due to buying them from online retailers .
Bible translations into Latin
