Book excerpt: The publication of the King James version of the Bible, translated between 1603 and 1611, coincided with an extraordinary flowering of English literature and is universally acknowledged as the greatest influence on English-language literature in history. Now, world-class literary writers introduce the book of the King James Bible in a series of beautifully designed, small-format volumes.

Download or read book Worldly Wisdom Revisited written by Max Ehrmann and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-21 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The editor of this book would advise all prospective buyers to perhaps wait for the second edition of this book now in preparation. If all you are interested in, is the poem by Max Ehrmann, there is no problem, as this is faithfully reproduced. However, the appendix, included for comparative reasons and which reproduces 'Ecclesiastes' from the King James Bible, was not, it appears, the main text that Ehrmann used as the basis for his poem (as indicated, incorrectly, in the introduction). 'Ecclesiastes' has been confused with another text 'Ben Sira[h]' with which it is associated in a somewhat complex manner. The second edition will rectify this error on the author's part (apologies to any purchasers of the first edition).Original description to the first edition: This is a fully revised version of Max Ehrmann's 1934 classic 'Worldly Wisdom'. Ehrmann's famous poem 'Desiderata' has delighted the world for many years and is one of the most popularly searched poems on the internet. Like 'Desiderata' this new book is full of gentle soulful advice on how to lead one's life. A detailed introductory essay, by Tim Dalgleish, investigates Ehrmann's relationships with Theodore Dreiser, Eugene Debs and others, and is full of interesting biographical facts about the author himself, all of which helps us 'revisit' this spiritual classic with fresh eyes
