After the lost generation : a critical study of the writers of two wars by John W Aldridge( Book )

1 edition published in 1951 in English and held by 763 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

For critic John W. Aldridge, the fiction produced by young American writers after World War II lacked a vital advantage shared by the writers depicting the horrors of World War I: that of encountering those same horrors for the first time. For the WWII generation, there were no romantic illusions to lose, and thus no glories of war to see through eyes newly wise to the wholesale waste of the lives of young men like themselves. These essays are permeated by the question of whether these authors--who seemed to cynically accept the war as a necessary business best concluded quickly--could produce truly great literature out of their experiences. This book attempts an analysis of these authors as a whole, representing the horrors of their war for both their compatriots and later generations

The McGraw-Hill style manual : a concise guide for writers and editors by Marie Longyear( Book )

4 editions published between 1982 and 1989 in English and held by 709 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

From the Blurb: A concise and authoritative guide to contemporary standards of editing and book publishing, this manual is an indispensable desk reference for writers - for students of writing - for editors - for typists, word-processor operators, and compositors-for anyone, in short, who prepares material for publication and who wants to do it with style. Coverage ranges from general standards applicable to any material written for publication-rules of spelling, hyphenation, capitalization, abbreviation, punctuation, and the like-to the highly technical conventions used in mathematics, electronics, computer science, chemistry, and the life sciences. In addition, the author offers a wealth of timely information on contemporary English usage, the metric system, bias in writing (and how to avoid it), and other topics of current interest to professional writers, and editors. Step-by-step procedures are provided for copy editing, proofreading, and indexing-practical suggestions that can just as easily be applied to magazine, newsletter, and newspaper work as to book production. In this era of fast-changing technology, The McGraw-Hill Style Manual takes word processing, optical character recognition, and other computer processes into account, while advocating traditional standards of quality for the printed word. From splitting the infinitive without guilt, to shipping artwork to approximating Greek letters on a typewriter that lacks the necessary Greek or mathematical characters-you will find the solution to all kinds of style, usage, and production problems at your fingertips in this unique, timely, and comprehensive guide. And because this book is based on McGraw-Hill's long history of editorial expertise, it is fully authoritative from cover to cover

1 edition published in 1956 in English and held by 656 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Since the publication of his highly influential first book, After the Lost Generation, John W. Aldridge has been recognized as a master of contemporary literary criticism.

Throughout his career, Aldridge has been deeply concerned with the relation of society to literature. While the changing editorial policies of the major book reviews and magazines threaten to make serious literary criticism a thing of the past, Aldridge still believes that books and their ideas have a living relation to daily life, as well as the evolution of contemporary literature
