Nathaniel West

    Tento americký prozaik je známý svými satirickými a často temnými romány, které pronikavě zkoumají americkou kulturu a její iluze. Jeho díla se vyznačují úsporným, úderným stylem a pesimistickým pohledem na lidskou povahu. Postavy často usilují o slávu a bohatství v prostředí dekadence a úpadku, čímž autor odhaluje prázdnotu a absurditu snahy o americký sen. Jeho jedinečný literární hlas zůstává relevantní i dnes pro svou kritickou ostrost a stylistickou preciznost.

      The digital copies of these recordings are available for free at First Fruits website. place.asburyseminary.edu/firstfruits The history of this little tract is soon told. It was written while a guest at his home, in answer to a request of my dear friend, Mr. Harlow B. Andrews, an influential member of the University Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church, Syracuse, N. Y.; a" Barnabas, full of the Holy Ghost and of faith," and by whose labors " much people was added to the Lord." The statement, somewhat new to the ear, that "Wesley and the Oxford Methodists were lovers of the premillennial cloctrine," fumished the occasion for the request. It was my pleasure to become acquainted with Professor W. P. Coddington, D.D., of Syracuse University, and desirous of submitting the manuscript to his critical revision-having all confidence in his scholarship, piety, judgment, and integrity-I did so, soliciting suggestions and corrections such as his impartial review might dictate.
