Recounting the play’s sensational failure-the humiliated author stopped writing plays for a few years-Chekhov wrote to a friend, “The theatre breathed malice, the air was compressed with hatred, and in accordance with the laws of physics, I was thrown out of Petersburg like a bomb.” Chekhov asked for the play to be withdrawn the theatre refused.

Milton was revered by poets such as William Blake, William Wordsworth, and Thomas Hardy. Samuel Johnson praised Paradise Lost as "a poem which.with respect to design may claim the first place, and with respect to performance, the second, among the productions of the human mind", though he (a Tory) described Milton's politics as those of an "acrimonious and surly republican". Milton is described as the "greatest English author" by biographer William Hayley, and he remains generally regarded "as one of the preeminent writers in the English language", though critical reception has oscillated in the centuries since his death often on account of his republicanism. He was the first modern writer to employ unrhymed verse outside of the theatre or translations. His desire for freedom extended beyond his philosophy and was reflected in his style, which included his introduction of new words (coined from Latin and Ancient Greek) to the English language. Milton achieved fame and recognition during his lifetime his celebrated Areopagitica (1644), written in condemnation of pre-publication censorship, is among history's most influential and impassioned defences of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. ![]() ![]() ![]() Instead, the master judges actions according to strength. A master is a creator of morality, strong enough to transcend ideas of good versus evil. It’s a morality that seeks action and is not afraid to forge ahead and determine itself. Master morality is an actionary type of morality. In On the Genealogy of Morality, Nietzsche argued that there are two types of morality: master morality and slave morality. Going beyond good and evil means we are in territory not covered by traditional morality. If we are to see the truth, we need to go beyond good and evil. ![]() Reality is brutal enough, so we supplement it with an invented, ideal world of fairness, justice, and beauty. Therefore, to speak of good and evil is to speak of human illusions, of false concepts according to which we find it necessary to live. Nothing in nature has intrinsic value, or value for its own sake. “God is dead, and we have killed him.” Along with God died our immutable, perfect source of morality. ![]() ![]() ![]() Affluent and exceptionally well connected in the L.A. ![]() Despite its universal resonances, the book is perhaps most valuable as a vital addition to the literature of the AIDS epidemic. Monette brings to the narrative a poet's eye for the telling image or metaphor, and makes this far more than a simple compendium of medical disasters: the memoir transcends the particulars of the AIDS epidemic to stand as an eloquent testimonial to the power of love and the devastation of loss, the courage of the ill and the anger, fear and dedication of their loved ones. Poet and novelist Monette (Love Alone: 18 Elegies for Rog) applies admirable candor and control to the task of chronicling the suffering endured in the months between the diagnosis and death of the man with whom he had spent over 10 years. Wrenching in its detail, this account of the author's final two years with his companion and ``beloved friend'' Roger Horwitz, who died of AIDS in 1986, personalizes the epidemic's appalling statistics with heartbreaking clarity. ![]() |
