Excerpt from Prometheus in Atlantis: A Prophecy of the Extinction of the Christian Civilization The only proper care and duty of any of us, is to work out our permitted parts like noble and obedient chil dren, knowing that the bounds are better as the Father has set them, than they would be with the alterations our impatience would make. It is justification that I know that the stainless and regenerate will find some thing here to quicken and enlarge their holy hearts; and as for the rest, if you will each give heed only to what was designed for you, and pass lightly over what may untruly seem to you inopportune or ill-advised, leaving it for yourbrother whose need it may meet, you may rise from the perusal more willing, if no bet ter able, to do and suffer what God and truth require. A mental radius long enough to include an honest loaf of bread and a peacefial cup of cold water, has never covered, and in this world will never cover, any virtu ous interest which would not prosper in the prosperity of Truth; and neither would one that should sweep the last limit of attainment, penetrate beyond the oh ligation of support and assistance to her slenderest utterance. It would be well, then, for you all, without distinction, to exercise now, for a short hour or two, the nobler faculties of your nature, and give the mean ones a little rest. God knows they need it.

First published in 1970, this collection is made up of a selection of essays composed between 1962 and 1968, written by distinguished humanist and literary critic Northrop Frye. The book is divided into two parts: one deals largely with the contexts of literary criticism; the other offers more specific studies of literary works in roughly historical sequence. One of the essays is Frye’s own elucidation of the development of his critical premises out of his early concern with the poetry of William Blake. Taken together, the essays offer a continuous and coherent argument, making a whole that is entirely equal to the sum of its parts.

Highlighting aspects of his scholarship seldom given sufficient emphasis, this new volume of the Collected Works of Northrop Frye documents Frye's writings on the literature of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries (apart from those on William Blake, which are featured in other volumes). The volume includes Frye's seminal 1956 essay "Towards Defining an Age of Sensibility" and the highly influential 1968 book A Study of English Romanticism. With these pieces and the other published and unpublished works contained in the volume, Frye changed the way the transition from the major Augustan figures to the Romantics was viewed. These works are a central part of Frye's long and radical rethinking of the relation of romance and Romanticism and, through them, he emerges as a meticulous textual critic, teasing out the fine brushstroke effects in writers as varied as Boswell and Beddoes, Dickens and Dickinson. Imre Salusinszky's introduction and annotation illuminates Frye's writing and guides the reader along the path of Frye's five-decade development of thought on Romanticism. This volume is an invaluable contribution to studies on Frye, as well as to Romantic and Victorian literature.

THE PROMETHEUS CONNECTION America's Original Spirit: Rise, Demise, RecoveryAeschylus's Prometheus Bound is the greatest creation myth ever invented. America is the greatest country ever created. Vividly, they meet in this short book, The Prometheus Connection. The torch of reason is the integrating image—an astonishing one. Prometheus used a torch to steal the fire of the gods and then ignite the spirit of man. And mankind was never the same again. Mankind had become infused with reason and thought. America's Founders did the same for a new country. Their torch was Enlightenment philosophy, lit with the same fire of reason and thought. Brazenly they thrust it—flung it—into the face of tyrannical authority. And the world was never the same again. The Prometheus Connection is a unique approach to the story of America. Live again the rise of America's original defiance. Witness its tragic demise and understand why it was inevitable. Experience the exhilaration of its recovery. You will not look at American history in the same way again.
