Book Synopsis The Lady and the Virgin by : Penny Schine Gold
Download or read book The Lady and the Virgin written by Penny Schine Gold and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-01-15 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Penny Schine Gold provides a bold analysis of key literary and artistic images of women in the Middle Ages and the relationship between these images and the actual experience of women. She argues that the complex interactions between men and women as expressed in both image and experience reflect a common pattern of ambivalence and contradiction. Thus, women are seen as both helpful and harmful, powerful and submissive, and the actuality of women's experience encompasses women in control and controlled, autonomous and dependent. Vividly recreating the rich texture of medieval life, Gold effectively and eloquently goes beyond a simple equation of social context and representation. In the process. she challenges equally simple judgments of historical periods as being either "good" or "bad" for women. "[The Lady and the Virgin] presents its findings in a form that should attract students as well as their instructors. The careful and controlled use of so many different kinds of sources . . . offers us a valuable medieval case study in the inner-relationship between the segments of society and its ethos or value system."—Joel T. Rosenthal, The History Teacher "Something of a tour de force in an interdisciplinary approach to history."—Jo Ann McNamara, Speculum "[A] well-written, extremely well-researched book. . . . The Lady and the Virgin is useful, readable, and well informed."—R. Howard Bloch, Modern Philology

Book excerpt: A tour de force of history and imagination, The Lady and the Unicorn is Tracy Chevalier’s answer to the mystery behind one of the art world’s great masterpieces—a set of bewitching medieval tapestries that hangs today in the Cluny Museum in Paris. They appear to portray the seduction of a unicorn, but the story behind their making is unknown—until now. Paris, 1490. A shrewd French nobleman commissions six lavish tapestries celebrating his rising status at Court. He hires the charismatic, arrogant, sublimely talented Nicolas des Innocents to design them. Nicolas creates havoc among the women in the house—mother and daughter, servant, and lady-in-waiting—before taking his designs north to the Brussels workshop where the tapestries are to be woven. There, master weaver Georges de la Chapelle risks everything he has to finish the tapestries—his finest, most intricate work—on time for his exacting French client. The results change all their lives—lives that have been captured in the tapestries, for those who know where to look. In The Lady and the Unicorn, Tracy Chevalier weaves fact and fiction into a beautiful, timeless, and intriguing literary tapestry—an extraordinary story exquisitely told.
Download or read book Forever Mame written by Bernard F. Dick and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to living life to its fullest, Rosalind Russell's character Auntie Mame is still the silver screen's exemplar. And Mame, the role Russell (1907–1976) would always be remembered for, embodies the rich and rewarding life Bernard F. Dick reveals in the first biography of this Golden Age star, Forever Mame: The Life of Rosalind Russell. Drawing on personal interviews and information from the archives of Russell and her producer-husband Frederick Brisson, Dick begins with Russell's childhood in Waterbury, Connecticut, and chronicles her early attempts to achieve recognition after graduating from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Frustrated by her inability to land a lead in a Broadway show, she headed for Hollywood in 1934 and two years later played her first starring role, the title character in Craig’s Wife. Dick discusses all of her films along with her triumphal return to Broadway, first in the musical Wonderful Town and later in Auntie Mame. Forever Mame details Russell's social circle of such stars as Loretta Young, Cary Grant, and Frank Sinatra. It traces an extraordinary career, ending with Russell's courageous battle against the two diseases that eventually caused her death: rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. Russell devoted her last years to campaigning for arthritis research. So successful was she in her efforts to alert lawmakers to this crippling disease that a leading San Francisco research center is named after her.

Having grown to young womanhood in poverty—the result of their father’s indolence and society’s intolerance—tough-minded Belle is determined to improve her lot in life, even if it means compromising her principles and her pride. Her beautiful twin, Rosa, however, dreams of a different, grander escape and foolishly puts her faith in love. For Blanche, the entire world is the decaying estate the Lemarchants share with other Anglo-Indian outcasts.

An extraordinary novel rich in color and heartbreaking human drama, The Lady and the Unicorn is the poignant tale of one family’s struggle to make a future in a society blinded by prejudice and divided by caste. A powerful story of coming-of-age and coming to terms, it is a masterful fiction from one of the preeminent British authors of the twentieth century.

Book Synopsis The Lady and the Dragon by : Loren Henry Wilson
Download or read book The Lady and the Dragon written by Loren Henry Wilson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-02-19 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What is your opinion about the meaning of Bible prophecy? Is the book of Revelation a prophecy about the future of this earth that is still yet to come -- or is it prophecy that has mostly already been fulfi lled through this passing Christian Age? Christians living in our world today are familiar with the many futuristic interpretations of the prophetic books of the Bible that have been offered to us by the publishing industry -- especially some of the wild and radical interpretations of the Book of Revelation. There are rivers turning to blood, stars falling to the earth, a ""last chance to go to heaven"" theology, and on and on it goes. Every few years, as the passing history of our world takes new turns, these predictions that are supposedly based upon Bible prophecy have to be revised again and again to make them suit the changing world scene. This means that there were some wrong interpretations somewhere along the line. But there is a better way. Before the middle of the 20th century when futurism developed such an amazing acceptance into the Christian community, there was another method of interpretation that was very prominent called ""historicist"". This simply means that the Book of Revelation is really prophecy about events that have been happening for about 2,000 years now, and that agree in description and in timely order with the chapters of Revelation. The same is true with much of the Book of Daniel. Loren Wilson, with his academic background in history and his preaching experience as a pastor, has updated the writings of the old historicist Bible commentators by including events of the 20th and 21st centuries into the mix. The results may change your perspective of what Daniel and Revelation is all about."
