Book Synopsis The Poison at the Source by : P. Brown
Download or read book The Poison at the Source written by P. Brown and published by Springer. This book was released on 1992-03-10 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of a number of English women novelists who portrayed the crises and conflicts in the development of the female consciousness as a response to the anomalies of the rapidly changing world of the early twentieth century when opportunities for self-expression and fulfilment were beginning to open up for women but nineteenth-century values and prejudices still widely prevailed. May Sinclair, Radclyffe Hall, Rosamond Lehmann, Antonia White and Dorothy Richardson are seen as outspoken and innovative writers often marginalised or ignored by serious criticism.
Book Synopsis The Cambridge Companion to British Fiction: 1980–2018 by : Peter Boxall
Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to British Fiction: 1980–2018 written by Peter Boxall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1980 to the present, huge transformations have occurred in every area of British cultural life. The election of Margaret Thatcher in 1979 ushered in a new neoliberal era in politics and economics that dramatically reshaped the British landscape. Alongside this political shift, we have seen transformations to the public sphere caused by the arrival of the internet and of social media, and changes in the global balance of power brought about by 9/11, the emergence of China and India as superpowers, and latterly the British vote to leave the European Union. British fiction of the period is intimately interwoven with these historical shifts. This collection brings together some of the most penetrating critics of the contemporary, to explore the role that the British novel has had in shaping the cultural landscape of our time, at a moment, in the wake of the EU referendum of 2016, when the question of what it means to be British has become newly urgent.

Book Synopsis Siegfried Sassoon: Scorched Glory by : P. Moeyes
Download or read book Siegfried Sassoon: Scorched Glory written by P. Moeyes and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-03-24 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siegfried Sassoon: Scorched Glory is the first survey of the poet's published work since his death and the first to draw on the edited diaries and letters. We learn how Sassoon's family background and Jewish inheritance, his troubled sexuality, his experience of war - in particular his public opposition to it - his relationship to the Georgian poets and other writers, and his eventual withdrawal to country life shaped his creativity. Sassoon's status as a war poet has overshadowed his wider achievements and the complex personality behind them. This critical evaluation of Sassoon's work is long overdue and will provide a valuable starting-point for future reappraisals of a writer for whom life and art were fused.
Download or read book Writers Talk written by Philip Tew and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-05-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writers Talk includes interviews with Kate Atkinson, Pat Barker, Jonathan Coe, Jim Crace, Toby Litt, Graham Swift, Matt Thorne, David Mitchell, AlanWarner, and Will Self. "Is it a good time to be a writer in the time of The Da Vinci Code? It's not necessarily good time to be a literary writer."-Kate Atkinson "The best novels allow us to rehearse the world ahead of us, to play out the battle before we fight it, to experience disaster before we encounter it, to practice grief before it flattens us. Narrative is useful. It confers advantages on us as a species." -Jim Crace Why do writers write? How do they react to criticism of their work? What inspires them and how do go about working? Does fiction have any political, ethical or spiritual significance? Can we learn more about a book from its author? This collection of interviews with contemporary British novelists offers a fascinating insight into bestselling authors' views on fiction today; their influences and themes; readers and critics; why they write and their writing process; and provides a snapshot of the reality of living as a writer.

Book Synopsis Winthrop Rockefeller: a Life of Change (c) by :
Download or read book Winthrop Rockefeller: a Life of Change (c) written by and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winthrop Rockefeller was a visionary whose enduring legacy - as this book persuasively argues - was the creation of a new social, political, and economic climate in Arkansas, one that allowed its citizens to become active participants in their communities and to overcome the inferiority complex deeply ingrained in the state's culture. Passionately committed to strengthening race relations and to improving access to education and the arts, Rockefeller was never one simply to write a check. Rather, he helped his fellow citizens turn their ideas into plans and then provided them with the resources to put their plans into action.
