Book Synopsis Working-Class Women Poets in Victorian Britain by : Florence S. Boos
Download or read book Working-Class Women Poets in Victorian Britain written by Florence S. Boos and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2008-06-12 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though working-class women in the nineteenth century included many accomplished and prolific poets, their work has often been neglected by critics and readers in favour of comparable work by men. Questioning the assumption that few poems by working-class women had survived, Florence Boos set out to discover supposedly lost works in libraries, private collections, and archives. Her years of research resulted in this anthology. Working-Class Women Poets in Victorian Britain features poetry from a variety of women, including an itinerant weaver, a rural midwife, a factory worker protesting industrialization, and a blind Scottish poet who wrote in both the Scots dialect and English. In addition to biographical information and contemporary reviews of the poets’ work, the anthology also includes several photographs of the poets, their environment, and the journals in which their poems appeared.
Book Synopsis As the World Is Seen through the Eyes of the Raven, Hear Her Cry by : Raven M. Brown
Download or read book As the World Is Seen through the Eyes of the Raven, Hear Her Cry written by Raven M. Brown and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-01-25 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As children, we searched for four-leaf clovers and carried a keychain with a rabbit’s foot because we were told they were good luck. We were told not to cut the pole or step on a crack on the sidewalk. We put our teeth under our pillow so the Tooth Fairy would leave money. We collected Easter eggs from the Easter Bunny. We tried to stay awake in hopes of getting a glimpse of Santa Claus. We blew out candles and made a wish without questioning who we were making a wish to or who answers wishes. Instead of being told we were created in God’s image, just below the angels and were given dominion over the earth, we were told after we die, we could be reincarnated and return as one of the very things we were given dominion over. These tales and exaggerations seem harmless because we mature and grow out of, but I want to address the deliberate and calculated lies and fallacies that are detrimental to our well-being and eternal soul. The pandemic is a word people are familiar with, but not its biblical synonym—pestilence. In addition, when God sends a famine, man will call it a food shortage, so you must learn to discern and observe with your insight and not your eyesight so you can walk by faith and not by sight. God sent plagues/pestilence for judgment, warning, and correction as a result of sin. In biblical days, the leader would hold a solemn assembly of fasting and praying, where they would repent and ask God for forgiveness. Many can’t wait to get back to a “normal” that was spiritually abnormal to God. We live in a world where people are more interested in man’s concepts than God’s precepts, in predictions than prophecy, religion than a relationship, luck than blessings, staying a victim than becoming a victor, more concerned about the unvaccinated than the unsaved, religious tenets than God’s commandments, in seminars than sermons, and rather warn us that Santa Claus is coming to town than Jesus is returning, talk about global warming than how cold we are to one another, and climate change than changing the climate of racial tension and discord. People think when we die, that’s it. But there is what people call “Life after death,” which I call “Life after flesh.” Don’t just plan for a future that’s not promised, but for your eternity that is. Hopefully, my spiritual journey and insight covered in this book as well as my book, The Bible Will Be My Textbook, will help you discover the truth. Seek and you shall find and be set free. I hope in reading, you will experience a spiritual growth spurt as I have. Poetically yours, Raven M. Brown
Download or read book The Other Latin@ written by Blas Falconer and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The stereotype spells death to the imagination by shrinking all possibilities to one. Generalizations encourage us to stop considering what can be.” —from the Introduction The sheer number of different ethnic groups and cultures in the United States makes it tempting to classify them according to broad stereotypes, ignoring their unique and changing identities. Because of their growing diversity within the United States, Latinas and Latinos face this problem in their everyday lives. With cultural roots in Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, or a variety of other locales, Hispanic-origin people in the United States are too often consigned to a single category. With this book Blas Falconer and Lorraine M. López set out to change this. The Other Latin@ is a diverse collection of essays written by some of the best emerging and established contemporary writers of Latin origin to help answer the question: How can we treat U.S. Latina and Latino literature as a definable whole while acknowledging the many shifting identities within their cultures? By telling their own stories, these authors illuminate the richness of their cultural backgrounds while adding a unique perspective to Latina and Latino literature. This book sheds light on the dangers of abandoning identity by accepting cultural stereotypes and ignoring diversity within diversity. These contributors caution against judging literature based on the race of the author and lament the use of the term Hispanic to erase individuality. Honestly addressing difficult issues, this book will greatly contribute to a better understanding of Latina and Latino literature and identity.
Book Synopsis Women's Poetry and Religion in Victorian England by : Cynthia Scheinberg
Download or read book Women's Poetry and Religion in Victorian England written by Cynthia Scheinberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victorian women poets lived in a time when religion was a vital aspect of their identities. Cynthia Scheinberg examines Anglo-Jewish (Grace Aguilar and Amy Levy) and Christian (Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Christina Rossetti) women poets, and argues that there are important connections between the discourses of nineteenth-century poetry, gender and religious identity. Further, Scheinberg argues that Jewish and Christian women poets had a special interest in Jewish discourse; calling on images from Judaism and the Hebrew Scriptures, their poetry created complex arguments about the relationships between Jewish and female artistic identity. She suggests that Jewish and Christian women used poetry as a site for creative and original theological interpretation, and that they entered into dialogue through their poetry about their own and each other's religious and artistic identities. This book's interdisciplinary methodology calls on poetics, religious studies, feminist literary criticism, and little read Anglo-Jewish primary sources.
Book Synopsis On Biblical Poetry by : F.W. Dobbs-Allsopp
Download or read book On Biblical Poetry written by F.W. Dobbs-Allsopp and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-26 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On Biblical Poetry takes a fresh look at the nature of biblical Hebrew poetry beyond its currently best-known feature, parallelism. F.W. Dobbs-Allsopp argues that biblical poetry is in most respects just like any other verse tradition, and therefore biblical poems should be read and interpreted like other poems, using the same critical tools and with the same kinds of guiding assumptions in place. He offers a series of programmatic essays on major facets of biblical verse, each aspiring to alter currently regnant conceptualizations in the field and to show that attention to aspects of prosody--rhythm, lineation, and the like--allied with close reading can yield interesting, valuable, and even pleasurable interpretations. What distinguishes the verse of the Bible, says Dobbs-Allsopp, is its historicity and cultural specificity, those peculiar encrustations and encumbrances that typify all human artifacts. Both the literary and the historical, then, are in view throughout. The concluding essay elaborates a close reading of Psalm 133. This chapter enacts the final movement to the set of literary and historical arguments mounted throughout the volume--an example of the holistic staging which, Dobbs-Allsopp argues, is much needed in the field of Biblical Studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late twentieth century, there has been a strategic campaign to recover the impact of Victorian women writers in the field of English literature. However, with the increased understanding of the importance of interdisciplinarity in the twenty-first century, there is a need to extend this campaign beyond literary studies in order to recognise the role of women writers across the nineteenth century, a time that was intrinsically interdisciplinary in approach to scholarly writing and public intellectual engagement.
