Book Synopsis Chronicles From The Hall by : Christine Mackinnon
Download or read book Chronicles From The Hall written by Christine Mackinnon and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-16 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CHRONICLES FROM THE HALL is a coming of age story set in a Catholic boarding school run by the Sisters of Mercy called McAuley Hall. The Hall is set in the heart of the Roman Catholic Precinct of st.John's, Newfoundland and takes place during the fast changing late 1960's. The author was sent there by a cruel and unfeeling stepfather and a weak, unloving mother after the death of her father. The story will take you through the most important years of a young girl's life. The writer makes you a voyeur, titillated, if you will, by a glimpse inside this often forbidden world. The author leaves behind her better judgement and writes brutally and honestly about her experiences during that time. She speaks of her own raw emotions, failures, and lack of judgement as she tries to navigate life through this hostile environment. The story is laced with both humour and pathos. It conveys both the power and scope of the Roman Catholic Church during those years. The nuns had a mandate to ptotect and educate the children in their care, but often failed miserably. The story also conveys the emotions of a young teenager, cast adrift, in this strange new world and the circumstances that brought her there.

Book excerpt: When Eddy Hall receives five cards for his stereoscope, he and his sister, Eleanor, can't wait to see what exotic places they reveal maybe Stonehenge, or a centuries-old European cathedral. But instead, when they look through the stereoscope, Eddy and Eleanor see some very strange things. An odd-looking rope hangs from the sky down into every picture. A marmalade coloured cat that looks suspiciously like Herm, the family cat, also appears. And one picture looks like the front hall of their very own house! The images seem to be almost real, not just three-dimensional illusions. All it will take is one little tug on that rope to find out for sure ....

Book Synopsis Exile, Diplomacy and Texts by : Ana Sáez-Hidalgo
Download or read book Exile, Diplomacy and Texts written by Ana Sáez-Hidalgo and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exile, Diplomacy and Texts offers an interdisciplinary narrative of religious, political, and diplomatic exchanges between early modern Iberia and the British Isles during a period uniquely marked by inconstant alliances and corresponding antagonisms. Such conditions notwithstanding, the essays in this volume challenge conventionally monolithic views of confrontation, providing – through fresh examination of exchanges of news, movements and interactions of people, transactions of books and texts – new evidence of trans-national and trans-cultural conversations between British and Irish communities in the Iberian Peninsula, and of Spanish and Portuguese ‘others’ travelling to Britain and Ireland. Contributors: Berta Cano-Echevarría, Rui Carvalho Homem, Mark Hutchings, Thomas O’Connor, Susana Oliveira, Tamara Pérez-Fernández, Glyn Redworth, Marta Revilla-Rivas, and Ana Sáez-Hidalgo.
