Book Synopsis A Berkshire Boyhood by : Begiebing, Robert
Download or read book A Berkshire Boyhood written by Begiebing, Robert and published by Anaphora Literary Press. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neither celebrity-gawk, “misery memoir,” nor confessional melodrama, A Berkshire Boyhood is more reminiscent of such memoirs as Tobias Wolff’s This Boy’s Life and Emily Fox Gordon’s Are You Happy? In fact, A Berkshire Boyhood will strike readers as a parallel universe to Gordon’s book, her own story of growing up in Williamstown, Massachusetts, as a privileged faculty brat and young girl in the 1950s. Berkshire Boyhood is a boy’s story of growing up from working class roots in that same place and time. It explores family troubles arising out of the wounds and separations of World War II, ethnic religiosity, and adolescent sexuality (1950s variety). Its deeper appeal comes from our curiosity about the 1950s and the Boomer generation, from the fraught relations between that generation and their parents, who fought WWII, from our interest in the influence of landscape on human development, and from a vision of post-war years as a decade seething with the anger and dissent of an incipient counterculture that would explode the sixties.

Book Synopsis The Life of Charles Eastman OhiyeS'a: Indian Boyhood & From the Deep Woods to Civilization (Volume 1&2) by : Charles Eastman
Download or read book The Life of Charles Eastman OhiyeS'a: Indian Boyhood & From the Deep Woods to Civilization (Volume 1&2) written by Charles Eastman and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Indian Boyhood," presents the incredible adventurous childhood and youth which were a part of the free wilderness life of the first American — a life that is gone forever. By dint of much persuasion, the story has now been carried on from the point of that plunge into the unknown with which the first book ends, a change so abrupt and so overwhelming that the boy of fifteen "felt as if he were dead and travelling to the spirit land." In his second autobiography "From the Deep Woods to Civilization" we will hear of a single-hearted quest throughout eighteen years of adolescence and early maturity, for the attainment of the modern ideal of Christian culture. It is clearly impossible to tell the whole story, but much that cannot be told may be read "between the lines." The broad outlines, the salient features of an uncommon experience are here set forth in the hope that they may strengthen for some readers the conception of our common humanity.
Book Synopsis CHARLES EASTMAN Premium Collection: Indian Boyhood, Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains, The Soul of the Indian & From the Deep Woods to Civilization by : Charles A. Eastman
Download or read book CHARLES EASTMAN Premium Collection: Indian Boyhood, Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains, The Soul of the Indian & From the Deep Woods to Civilization written by Charles A. Eastman and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-11-17 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the CHARLES EASTMAN Premium Collection, readers are presented with an insightful exploration of Native American culture and history through the works of Charles A. Eastman. Through his literary style, Eastman brilliantly captures the essence of Indian life, paying tribute to the heroes and chieftains of Native American tribes while delving into the spiritual beliefs and traditions of his people. His rich descriptions and vivid storytelling bring to life the struggle and resilience of the Native American experience, offering readers a glimpse into a world often overlooked in mainstream literature. With a mix of autobiography, history, and philosophy, Eastman's works provide a comprehensive look at the complexities of Native American identity and heritage. Charles A. Eastman, also known as Ohiyesa, was a Santee Dakota physician and writer who dedicated his life to bridging the gap between Native American and mainstream American culture. Born into a traditional Dakota family but later immersed in white society, Eastman's unique background lends authenticity and depth to his portrayal of Native American life. His personal experiences and deep connection to his heritage shine through in his writings, making him a respected voice in Native American literature. I highly recommend the CHARLES EASTMAN Premium Collection to readers interested in exploring the rich tapestry of Native American culture and history through the eyes of a knowledgeable and passionate storyteller.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Boyhood IN the beginning, at least, Father wrote these sketches of his boyhood and early farm life as a matter of self-defense: I had made a determined attempt to write them and when I did this I was treading on what was to him more or less sacred ground, for as he once said in a letter to me, You will be homesick; I know just how I felt when I left home forty-three years ago. And I have been more or less homesick ever since. The love of the old hills and of Father and Mother is deep in the very foundations of my being. He had an intense love of his birthplace and cherished every memory of his boyhood and of his family and of the old farm high up on the side of Old Clump the mountain out of whose loins I sprang -so that when I tried to write of him he felt it was time he took the matter in hand.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Boyhood The following poem is an attempt to portray American Boyhood, with its surroundings, as it was in the early part of the nineteenth century. It is mainly a picture of country boyhood, because the boyhood of our great cities 1' is more or less exceptional. The muscle, brain, health, and vigor of the nation have been, and must ever be, principally supplied from the great country. Besides, it is the country, and not the city, which forms the character of every free people. It is an effort to represent National Boyhood - the boyhood of all sections and of every class blended into the unity - american.
