Book Synopsis Undressing the Maid by : Johanna Valenius
Download or read book Undressing the Maid written by Johanna Valenius and published by Finnish Literature Society. This book was released on 2004 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyses how the imaginary Finnish Maid (Suomi-neito) was used to construct the Finnish nation at the turn of the 20th century. It focuses on gender, femininity and masculinity, sexuality and body as well as on the images of virginity, bridehood and sexual violence. The study argues that Finnish male intellectuals saw the Finnish nation as their female beloved, a potential bride, but that they did not get her and the Finnish Maid remained an eternal virgin. In addition, the Finnish Maid was seen as being raped by the Russians. The materials analysed in this study consist of caricatures, poems and national monuments.

Book excerpt: The American master's first novel since Winter's Bone tells of a deadly dance hall fire and its impact over several generations. Alma DeGeer Dunahew, the mother of three young boys, works as the maid for a prominent citizen and his family in West Table, Missouri. Her husband is mostly absent, and, in 1929, her scandalous, beloved younger sister is one of the 42 killed in an explosion at the local dance hall. Who is to blame? Mobsters from St. Louis? The embittered local gypsies? The preacher who railed against the loose morals of the waltzing couples? Or could it have been a colossal accident? Alma thinks she knows the answer-and that its roots lie in a dangerous love affair. Her dogged pursuit of justice makes her an outcast and causes a long-standing rift with her own son. By telling her story to her grandson, she finally gains some solace-and peace for her sister. He is advised to "Tell it. Go on and tell it"-tell the story of his family's struggles, suspicions, secrets, and triumphs.

But when Jason accidentally knocks her down and decides that makes her his responsibility, he won’t take no for an answer. And though he’s a pigheaded (and, very well, rather handsome) Englishman who finds her Scots speech unintelligible, beneath their constant bickering runs a current of something else… Through long days on the road and even longer nights, what begins as getting on each other’s nerves becomes stripping down one another’s defenses and discovering what lies beneath, until all is laid bare.

Book Synopsis Japanese are Like That by : Ichiro Kawasaki
Download or read book Japanese are Like That written by Ichiro Kawasaki and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-09 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic book on Japanese culture and etiquette takes a candid look at Asia's most modern, yet misread society. Here is a different book about the Japanese. A far cry from the purple prose of the starry-eyed Western visitor or the sterile style of the government gazette, The Japanese Are Like That is a down to earth scrutiny of the so called "inscrutable" Japanese. Armed with a cool head, the gift of clear expression, and an objectivity born of years of foreign residence, the author discusses with refreshing candor the national traits and ways of life of his countrymen, and compares them with those of other peoples, letting the chips fall where they may Despite his background as a career diplomat, Mr. Kawasaki in this book dispenses with top hat and striped trousers and pulls no punches in exploding some popular myths and romantic illusions about Japan and the Japanese. This book is certain to provide the reader with new insights into little known facets of Japan which very few authors have cared or dared to treat so openly.

Download or read book Servants written by Lucy Lethbridge and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Hugely enjoyable' - Kathryn Hughes, Guardian Glorious ... Full of eyebrow-raising and laughter-inducing vignettes' - Daily Telegraph Servants is the social history of the last century through the eyes of those who served. From the butler, the footman, the maid and the cook of 1900 to the au pairs, cleaners and childminders who took their place seventy years later, a previously unheard class offers a fresh perspective on a dramatic century. Here, the voices of servants and domestic staff are at last brought to life: their daily household routines, attitudes towards their employers, and to each other, throw into sharp and intimate relief the period of feverish social change through which they lived. Sweeping in its scope, extensively researched and brilliantly observed, Servants is an original and fascinating portrait of twentieth-century Britain; an authoritative history that will change and challenge the way we look at society.
Book Synopsis Unattainable Bride Russia by : Ellen Rutten
Download or read book Unattainable Bride Russia written by Ellen Rutten and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-08 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the twentieth century and continuing today, personifications of Russia as a bride occur in a wide range of Russian texts and visual representations, from literature and political and philosophical treatises to cartoons and tattoos. Invariably, this metaphor functions in the context of a political gender allegory, which represents the relationships between Russia, the intelligentsia, and the Russian state, as a competition of two male suitors for the former’s love. In Unattainable Bride Russia, Ellen Rutten focuses on the metaphorical role the intelligentsia plays as Russia’s rejected or ineffectual suitor. Rutten finds that this metaphor, which she covers from its prehistory in folklore to present-day pop culture references to Vladimir Putin, is still powerful, but has generated scarce scholarly consideration. Unattainable Bride Russia locates the cultural thread and places the political metaphor in a broad contemporary and social context, thus paying it the attention to which it is entitled as one of Russia’s modern cultural myths.

Book excerpt: In the climactic finale of the USA Today–bestselling author’s royal romance series, a fairytale wedding isn’t the end of the story—it’s the beginning. It seemed like every girl’s dream: fall in love with a prince and be whisked off for your very own glamorous happy-ever-after. But there’s more to this royal fairy tale for Allegra Jackson and Prince Alessandro Santina. Allegra’s headline-grabbing family hardly prepared her for a life of public duty, and sinfully delicious Prince Alessandro has always seemed virtually allergic to the idea of settling down in Santa Maria. Out of all the flamboyant, beautiful women his name’s been linked with, the heir to the throne picked ordinary Allegra with the family from hell. Now everyone is watching to see if the tabloid’s couple of the year is really playing for keeps.
