Talk:Against the Day

Revision as of 14:36, 15 January 2007 by MKOHUT (Talk | contribs)

Half way through this mighty novel.It is a great work and I am hooked to this American Master(Zen?).

Cheerly and handsomely

Page 3 Both "cheerly" and "handsomely" appear in Shakespeare's The Tempest 1.1.5 and 5.1.294. Given the storms in ATD, this reference would not seem inadvertent.

Yes, and The Tempest is seen as Shakespeare's most 'acceptance of life',late in life, play. With Sprites, fairies and a New World. ATD is that and other as well.

There is a paper/essay here. Or more than one.
