CHAPTER XXVI WHEN I SHOULD FIND THEE BELLE'S interview with Bailey, although distressing, proved a balm, for it awakened her to the selfishness of her own grieving. She had caused suffering to a well-loved friend, and the thought of his pain, of the hopeless days that must follow her refusal, took her fancy from her own misery by enlisting her sympathy for his. As she lay in bed late the morning after the sheriff's departure her mind went back over the swift changes a few months had wrought. Two suitors had asked for her love, both tried and manly fellows. Her throat filled with pride at the memory, even though both had failed her, for it was a comfort to know that she had been prized. The refusal of Bailey seemed inevitable. He might have been her intellectual superior until within the year, but she was rapidly outgrowing his horizon, and she more and more felt how lonely companionship with him would be. The animal stage of her existence was passing forever and her soul clamoured for expression; the animal stage of his existence never would pass. It had been hard to say no, but the wisdom of the decision she could not question. The misunderstanding with Miller, however, was a problem quite beyond her penetration. His neglect to follow up the opportunity she had tried to make plain very nearly unseated her reason the first week after their parting. Had the truth not come to her through the slow delay of unfulfilled days, had she realised at the hour how utterly he would fail her, the will-power that previous months of suffering had weakened must have given way under the strain of his desertion. But after days of such anguish as only ardent youth can feel, exhausted endurance left an apathy that served as an anodyne to her tortured fancy, ..

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Casa Grande: A California Pastoral A fitful blaze from glowing logs moved shadows in the spacious living-room of the old house. Through the drowsy night-gloom lime-washed adobe walls showed clean and distant, their massiveness draped by vaqueros' trappings, with here and there quaint relics of former soldier occupants. Casa Grande, sturdy and red-tiled, had been a fort when Rancho Aguas Frias, in Sonoma County, was the northernmost Mexican outpost of California. Now, some ten years later, it was the dwelling of John Miller, who had converted the abandoned outpost into a prosperous cattle range.

Download or read book Continental Divides written by A. Goldman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-10-19 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book calls for a new iconography of region that unseats New England's status as cultural center of the United States and originary metaphor for national identity. No single territorial or political axis can adequately describe the complex regional relationships that comprise the nation, Goldman argues. The essays in this volume juxtapose African-American, Mexican-American, and Anglo American fictions produced in the wake of both the Civil War and the U.S.-Mexican War, contiguous national conflicts that remain segregated in critical practice. At once comparative and intertextual, the readings in this study redefine western literature in its relation to other U.S. regional literary formations. Goldman's arguments question critical sectionalism as extensively as they do regional divisions, by blurring generic distinctions, by reading across literary periods, and by juxtaposing writers who explore the same set of social issues during the same historical moment, but who are conventionally located in separate literary traditions: sentimental literature, the African American novel, literary modernism, early Mexican fiction.

Download or read book Over the Edge written by Valerie J. Matsumoto and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Gold Rush to rush hour, the history of the American West is fraught with diverse, subversive, and at times downright eccentric elements. This provocative volume challenges traditional readings of western history and literature, and redraws the boundaries of the American West with absorbing essays ranging widely on topics from tourism to immigration, from environmental battles to interethnic relations, and from law to film. Taken together, the essays reassess the contributions of a diverse and multicultural America to the West, as they link western issues to global frontiers. Featuring the latest work by some of the best new writers both inside and outside academia, the original essays in Over the Edge confront the traditional field of western American studies with a series of radical, speculative, and sometimes outrageous challenges. The collection reads the West through Ben-Hur and the films of Mae West; revises the western American literary canon to include the works of African American and Mexican American writers; examines the implications of miscegenation law and American Indian blood quantum requirements; and brings attention to the historical participation of Mexican and Japanese American women, Native American slaves, and Alaskan cannery workers in community life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The process by which two neighborhood butchers turned themselves into landed industrialists depended to an extraordinary degree on the acquisition, manipulation, and exploitation of natural resources. Igler examines the broader impact of western industrialism - as exemplified by Miller & Lux - on landscapes and waterscapes, bringing to the forefront the important issues of land reclamation, water politics, San Francisco's unique business environment, and the city's relation to its surrounding hinterlands. He provides a rich discussion of the social relations engineered by Miller & Lux, from the dispossession of Californio rancheros to the ethnic segmentation of the firm's massive labor force."--Jacket.
