  • Una Conoscenza del Caso
    W. D. Howells
    Non era che avessero fatto il minimo progresso verso la conoscenza, o che la scelta di conoscerli o no fosse del signor Arbuton; ma aveva l’abitudine di proteggersi così dalle possibilità della vita, e una coscienza che non incoraggiava le persone che avrebbe dovuto abbandonare per ragioni sociali. Questo a volte era un sacrificio, perché non aveva superato l’età in cui le pers...

  • The Flight of Pony Baker
    W. D. Howells / WDHowells
    If there was any fellow in the Boy’s Town fifty years ago who had a good reason to run off it was Pony Baker. Pony was not his real name; it was what the boys called him, because there were so many fellows who had to be told apart, as Big Joe and Little Joe, and Big John and Little John, and Big Bill and Little Bill, that they got tired of telling boys apart that way; and after...

    In the best room of a farm-house on the skirts of a village in the hills of Northern Massachusetts, there sat one morning in August three people who were not strangers to the house, but who had apparently assembled in the parlor as the place most in accord with an unaccustomed finery in their dress. One was an elderly woman with a plain, honest face, as kindly in expression as ...

    The young actor who thought he saw his part in Maxwell’s play had so far made his way upward on the Pacific Coast that he felt justified in taking the road with a combination of his own.

    I confess that with all my curiosity to meet an Altrurian, I was in no hospitable mood toward the traveler when he finally presented himself, pursuant to the letter of advice sent me by the friend who introduced him. It would be easy enough to take care of him in the hotel; I had merely to engage a room for him, and have the clerk tell him his money was not good if he tried to ...

    Whoever carries a mental kodak with him (as I suspect I was in the habit of doing long before I knew it) must be aware of the uncertain value of the different exposures. This can be determined only by the process of developing, which requires a dark room and other apparatus not always at hand; and so much depends upon the process that it might be well if it could always be left...

    No drop-curtain, at any theatre I have seen, was ever so richly imagined, with misty tops and shadowy clefts and frowning cliffs and gloomy valleys and long, plunging cataracts, as the actual landscape of Madeira, when we drew nearer and nearer to it, at the close of a tearful afternoon of mid-January. The scenery of drop-curtains is often very holdly beautiful, but here Nature...
