A Stroll in my Moccasins by Audrey E Payne
Some of the language we come across, in reading other peoples' works or listening to others speak, moves us profoundly. It requires a response from us; it occupies and involves us. Writers, always readers and listeners as well, are fascinated by this phenomenon, which became the subject of the classical treatise On the Sublime, traditionally attributed to Longinus. Emma Gilby looks at this compelling and complex text in relation to the work of three major seventeenth-century authors: Pierre Corneille, Blaise Pascal and Nicolas Boileau. She offers, in each case, intimate critical readings which spin out into broad interrogations about knowledge and experience in early modern French literature.
Payne, Audrey: - Audrey grew up in Kenya and has lived and worked in several countries, settling in Australia in 1972. She qualified and worked in three main careers: horticulture, nursing, and Christian ministry. On retirement she became a priest within the Anglican Church of Australia. Today she lives in Albany, is retired again, and loves not having to rush off to work every morning, except Sundays.
