On Writing, Editing, and Publishing
Essays Explicative and Hortatory With a Foreword by Morris Philipson
Expository writing, more an art than a science, can hardly be taught in the literal sense. But in this collection of essays, Jacques Barzun—one of the masters of English prose in our time—gives his ideas of what good writing is and how it can be achieved. In addition, he reflects with highly informed wit on some of the problems of the sister professions of editing and publishing.
"These [essays] exemplify the precision, eloquence and concern for communication which is the seal and mark of Barzun's writing. Rather than rules, Barzun makes suggestions in 'the living speech of a true witness.'"— Los Angeles Times
"It is a great joy to read Barzun's explicit prose, his humor, and common sense."—American Notes and Queries
1971 xi, 130 pages
Paper P 430 ISBN: 0-226-03848-3

Evenings with the Orchestra
Hector Berlioz
Translated and edited with an Introduction by Jacques Barzun
During orchestral performances in an unidentified but civilized town in northern Europe, the musicians (with the exception of the conscientious bass drummer) tell tales, read stories, and exchange gossip to relieve the tedium of the bad music they are paid to perform. In the delightful and now classic Evenings with the Orchestra, by the brilliant composer and critic, Hector Berlioz, we spend twenty-five entertaining evenings among this engaging group of self-distracting performers.
This new paperback edition of the Evenings is based on the definitive 1956 translation by Barzun. His Introduction adds to the contemporary appeal of the work.
W. H. Auden wrote of it: "To succeed in it, as Berlioz most brilliantly does, requires a combination of qualities which is very rare, the many-faceted curiosity of the dramatist with the aggressively personal vision of the lyric poet ."—The Griffin Vissza
