The Christmas Banquet
"First published in the United States Magazine and Democratic Review, XIV (January, 1844), “The Christmas Banquet” shares its subtitle—”from the unpublished “Allegories of the Heart”—with “Egotism; or the Bosom-Serpent,” another Hawthorne story of the period. “The Christmas Banquet” is an allegory composed by Elliston and read aloud to his wife Rosina (and an old friend) after their reunion. The allegory presents the plight of the most unfortunate of men—more unfortunate even than the man with a bosom-serpent—the man who has no human connection to his own life, the man who can feel nothing at all. The Christmas Banquet mentioned in the title is an annual feast, funded by an old misanthrope, in which the ten most miserable people who can be found are gathered together for the holiday. Year after year, the most unfortunate ones gather—a suffer from constant depression, a victim of heart disease, a hypochondriac, a woman whose children has died when she was far from home, etc.—to vie for the banquet prize: a wreath for the most miserable one of all. Each year the guests chosen are different, but Gervaise Hastings, a man unafflicted by any obvious misfortune, is included year after year. "
The Prince
The Prince is a 16th-century political treatise by the Italian diplomat and political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. From correspondence a version appears to have been distributed in 1513, using a Latin title, De Principatibus (Of Principalities). However, the printed version was not published until 1532, five years after Machiavelli's death. This was done with the permission of the Medici pope Clement VII, but «long before then, in fact since the first appearance of The Prince in manuscript, controversy had swirled about his writings». Although it was written as if it were a traditional work in the mirrors for princes style, it is generally agreed that it was especially innovative.

Self-Reliance
""«Self-Reliance»" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. It is the source of one of Emerson's most famous quotations: «„A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.“» This essay is an analysis into the nature of the “aboriginal self on which a universal reliance may be grounded. The first hint of the philosophy that would become «„Self-Reliance“» was presented by Ralph Waldo Emerson as part of a sermon in September 1830 a month after his first marriage. His wife Ellen was sick with tuberculosis and, as Emerson's biographer Robert D. Richardson wrote, «„Immortality had never been stronger or more desperately needed!“» From 1836 into 1837, Emerson presented a series of lectures on the philosophy of history at Boston's Masonic Temple. These lectures were never published separately, but many of his thoughts in these were later used in «„Self-Reliance“» and several other essays. Later lectures – such as «„The American Scholar“» and the Divinity School Address – by Emerson led to public censure of his radical views, the staunch defense of individualism in «„Self-Reliance“» being a possible reaction to that censure. Emerson wrote on individualism, personal responsibility, and nonconformity. Famous Individual essays of the author Ralph Waldo Emerson: ""Nature"«, „„Self-Reliance““, „„Compensation““, „„The Over-Soul““, „„Circles““, „„The Poet““, „„Experience““, „„Politics““, „„Saadi““ in the Atlantic Monthly, „„The American Scholar““, „„New England Reformers““.»

His visual artistry has led one contemporary art critic to proclaim him «„far and away the greatest artist Britain has ever produced“».

Brown has been committing acts to draw the attention of the police (throwing soup, knocking over apples, smashing a window) and leaving an obvious trail for them to follow. Valentin takes this opportunity to emerge from hiding with the policemen and arrest Flambeau. Both Flambeau and Valentin bow to Father Brown's superior detective skills. "
