aflevering Heroines Told by Clayton Edwards artwork

Heroines Told by Clayton Edwards

In this episode we’ll explore Clayton Edwards’ recounting of two remarkably courageous women, Molly Pitcher and Edith Cavell, from his 1920 book A Treasury of Heroes and Heroines. Both of these stories sit at the intersection of fact and folklore. Their stories teach us how history is preserved. Molly Pitcher is likely a "composite" of several real women (like Margaret Corbin and Mary Ludwig Hays), showing how oral tradition blends multiple truths into one legend. In contrast, Edith Cavell’s story is strictly documented, yet it was still "polished" by wartime press to fit a specific heroic narrative.

aflevering 3 Life Scenes from Durivage artwork

3 Life Scenes from Durivage

In this episode, we present three distinct tales that showcase Bostonian author, Francis A Durivage's range as a storyteller: * "The Obliging Young Man" - A witty look at the pitfalls of being too helpful, where good intentions meet the unpredictable whims of society. * "Love in a Cottage" - A classic exploration of romantic idealism versus practical reality, set against the backdrop of simpler times—or perhaps, as Durivage might say, the "good old times" that weren't always as golden as they seemed. * “Personal Satisfaction” -  provides an explanation of why we should be always sure before going ahead. Join us as we dust off these literary gems from the Project Gutenberg archives and bring the spirited prose of Francis A. Durivage back to life.

aflevering 3 Stories with a Dash of Humor artwork

3 Stories with a Dash of Humor

Today, we explore three stories that, with a sense of humor, delve into the complexities of reputation, political and journalistic and the mathematical quirks of time. These tales from the early 20th century showcase authors who found the extraordinary within the seemingly ordinary. * "The Boulevard of Rogues" by Meredith Nicholson: A humorous and satisfying tale of one man's attempt to take on a corrupt local political machine. Nicholson, a prominent "Hoosier" author, often explored the intersection of American politics and society with a sharp, observational wit. * “My First Literary Venture" (1871), Mark Twain offers a humorous, autobiographical (?) account of his earliest foray into the world of journalism. The story captures a pivotal moment from his teenage years in Hannibal, Missouri, when a thirteen-year-old Samuel Clemens was left in charge of his uncle’s newspaper, the Weekly Hannibal Journal. * "Sixteen Years Without a Birthday" by Brander Matthews: A fascinating mathematical curiosity framed as a narrative. Matthews, a distinguished professor and literary critic, uses this tale to prove how a person could legitimately go nearly two decades without a birthday—an unlikely but entirely possible scenario involving the quirks of the leap year and the turn of the century.

aflevering The Old Lady artwork

The Old Lady

We’re stepping into the experimental world of the 1920s with a haunting piece of short fiction titled “The Old Lady”, by Evelyn Scott.  Originally published in the May 1925 issue of The Dial—the premier magazine of the American modernist movement—this story, “The Old Lady”, was so well-regarded it was selected for The Best Short Stories of 1925. In it, we see a master of psychological depth at work, peeling back the layers of aging, memory, and the stifling weight of tradition.

aflevering Taking Some Chances with Clarence Cullen artwork

Taking Some Chances with Clarence Cullen

Today, we’re stepping out of the high-brow literary salons and into the world of Clarence Louis Cullen, a man who wrote about the hustle, the gamble, and the gritty humor of the American underdog. In this episode, we have a double feature of Cullen’s sharp-witted prose * First, is an introductory note from the author for his book Taking Chances.  * Then we follow a man chasing the elusive dragon of a winning run in “'Red' Donnelly’s Streak of Luck”. It’s a classic look at the superstitions and adrenaline of the gambling life.  * Finally, "Just Like Finding Money", a clever tale that reminds us that in the city, nothing—not even a windfall—is ever quite as simple as it seems. Both "Red Donnelly’s Streak of Luck" and "Just Like Finding Money" were originally part of a series Clarence Louis Cullen wrote for the New York Sun around the turn of the century.  Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2544463/fan_mail/new] When you subscribe to Narrated Archives you get at least 2 bonus episodes each month.  Support the show [https://paypal.me/NarratedArchives?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US] Thanks for listening!  Rate & Review on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/narrated-archives/id1845409953], Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/search/Sally%20Barron/audiobooks] or your favorite podcast provider.
