Download or read book Scottish Literature written by Alan Riach and published by Luath Press Ltd. This book was released on 2022-05-30 with total page 1042 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do we mean by 'Scottish literature'? Why does it matter? How do we engage with it? Bringing infectious enthusiasm and a lifetime's experience to bear on this multi-faceted literary nation, Alan Riach, Professor of Scottish Literature at the University of Glasgow, sets out to guide you through the varied and ever-evolving landscape of Scottish literature. A comprehensive and extensive work designed not only for scholars but also for the generally curious, Scottish Literature: an introduction tells the tale of Scotland's many voices across the ages, from Celtic pre-history to modern mass media. Forsaking critical jargon, Riach journeys chronologically through individual works and writers, both the famed and the forgotten, alongside broad overviews of cultural contexts which connect texts to their own times. Expanding the restrictive canon of days gone by, Riach also sets down a new core body of 'Scottish Literature': key writers and works in English, Scots, and Gaelic. Ranging across time and genre, Scottish Literature: an introduction invites you to hear Scotland through her own words.

Download or read book The Beauty in the Painting and Other Stories written by Kim Pao Yu and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of stories set in Asia, inspired by the author’s travels to China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Japan, and the Philippines. The stories are about people from all walks of life, from young lovers to old friends, from farmers to factory workers, from cooks to merchants. They are stories about hope, love, loss, compassion, and redemption. They are stories about the human experience, told from a uniquely Asian perspective. The stories in this book are diverse and thought-provoking. They explore the different cultures and traditions of Asia, as well as the challenges and triumphs of the people who live there. In “The Beauty in the Painting,” a young woman in an ancient painting wrecks havoc on the wicked. In “Ah Mei and the City,” a young woman from a rural village leaves home to pursue her dreams in the big city. In “Dr. Chan’s Homecoming,” an elderly doctor returns to his hometown in China after many years away and discovers a gift. And in “Lucky Louie in the Golden Triangle,” a cook uses his creativity to escape the clutches of a drug lord. These are just some of the stories in this book. Each one is a unique and unforgettable tale that will take you on a journey through the fascinating world of Asia. If you are interested in learning more about Asia, or if you simply enjoy a good story, then you will want to read this book. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to experience the rich culture and diversity of Asia. Kim’s first book, “Where Chingchoks Chirp”, is a memoir, a collection of essays about his childhood days in Bangkok. “The Beauty in the Painting” is Kim’s second book published by Archway Publishing.
Book Synopsis The Enchanted Wanderer by : Nikolai Leskov
Download or read book The Enchanted Wanderer written by Nikolai Leskov and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikolai Leskov's writing exploded the conventions of nineteenth-century Russian fiction. Here is the other Russia, mythical and untamed: an uneasy synthesis of Orthodoxy and Old Believers, a land populated by soldiers and monks, serfs and princes, Tartars and gypsies—a vast country brimming with the promise of magic. These seventeen tales, some rooted in the oral tradition, others cast as sophisticated anecdotes, are all told in the voices of storytellers addressing their audience—allowing us, as readers, to join a group of listeners. Innovative in form and rich in wordplay, the narratives unfurl in startlingly modern ways. The great gift of this new translation allows us to hear all the nuances of Leskov’s brilliant language.

Book Synopsis Autumn Wind & Other Stories by : Lane Dunlop
Download or read book Autumn Wind & Other Stories written by Lane Dunlop and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lane Dunlop's translations read elegantly, and his selection of modern Japanese Stories is both fresh and persuasive." —Donald Keene, Japanese scholar, historian, teacher, writer and translator of Japanese literature. The fourteen distinct voices of this collection tell fourteen very different stories spanning sixty years of twentieth-century Japanese literature. They include a nostalgic portrait of an aristocratic Meiji family in Kafu Nagai's "The Fox," a surprisingly cheerful celebration of postwar chaos in Sakaguchi Ango's "One Woman and the War," a chilly assessment of the modern society in Watanabe Junichi's "Invitation to Suicide," and much more. The writers also represent a wide spectrum, from renowned figure of Yasunari Kawabata, winner of the Noble Prize for Literature in 1968, to authors whose works have never before been translated into English. Westerners familiar only with stereotypical images of bowing geisha and dark-suited businessmen will be surprised by the cast of characters translator Lane Dunlop introduces in this anthology. Lovers of fiction and student of Japan are certain to find these stories absorbing, engaging and instructive.
