Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Virtuous Wives New york is a city always on the march. It grows as no other city has grown, devouring its past. The great capitals of the world - London, Paris, Rome - present the phenomenon of a stone dropped into a surface of water. The expanding circles of population, widening and receding, leave a central calm - the calm of history, of traditions, of cherished memories, the solidifying calm of monu mented generations. But New York is like an up turned bottle, constantly charged with champagne through its narrow neck, and this restless, increasing pressure, driving from the Battery to Central Park, has not only in one generation consumed its ancient residential area and dispersed its once conservative landmarks but created a new and' feverish society.

Book Synopsis Typical Women of China by : A. C. Safford
Download or read book Typical Women of China written by A. C. Safford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Typical Women of China: Abridged From the Chinese Work "Records of Virtuous Women of Ancient and Modern Times" Whilst the anecdotes and reflections must often seem very insipid to our Western tastes, they take us into the homes of women of all ranks, and reveal much there that is curious and interesting. The translation doubtless has many defects. It makes no pretensions to being the work of a critical scholar. It is an honest effort to convey the real meaning of the original, translating rather in accordance with the sense than precisely in harmony with the letter, and often paraphrasing the sentences and taking some license in expanding the sententious brevity of the Wen - li, in order to bring out the meaning more fully.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Friendships of Women The proportionate number of examples of virtuous love, completing itself in marriage, will probably diminish, and the relative examples of defeated or of unlawful love increase, until we reach some new phase of civilization, with better harmonized social arrange ments, - arrangements both more economical and more truthful. In the mean time, every thing which tends to inflame the exclusive passion of love, to stimulate thought upon it, or to magnify its imagined import ance, contributes so much to enhance the misery of its withholding or loss, and thus to augment an evil already lamentably extensive and severe.

Book Synopsis Uncrossing the Borders by : Daphne Lei
Download or read book Uncrossing the Borders written by Daphne Lei and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over many centuries, women on the Chinese stage committed suicide in beautiful and pathetic ways just before crossing the border for an interracial marriage. Uncrossing the Borders asks why this theatrical trope has remained so powerful and attractive. The book analyzes how national, cultural, and ethnic borders are inevitably gendered and incite violence against women in the name of the nation. The book surveys two millennia of historical, literary, dramatic texts, and sociopolitical references to reveal that this type of drama was especially popular when China was under foreign rule, such as in the Yuan (Mongol) and Qing (Manchu) dynasties, and when Chinese male literati felt desperate about their economic and political future, due to the dysfunctional imperial examination system. Daphne P. Lei covers border-crossing Chinese drama in major theatrical genres such as zaju and chuanqi, regional drama such as jingju (Beijing opera) and yueju (Cantonese opera), and modernized operatic and musical forms of such stories today.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of the Lives of Noble Women In selecting the subjects of his biographical sketches, the author has endeavoured to fix upon women who have been not less distinguished by their domestic than by their public virtues; upon women who have been Christians faithful to the end, and patriots firm in their loyalty to their country, as well as upon women illustrious as wives, mothers, daughters, or sisters. The sphere in which woman influences us for good is much wider than society sometimes supposes; and the pages of history record innumerable examples of her heroic devotion and constancy to a great purpose. It is well that these examples should be kept before the eyes of the younger female members of our families; and that they should be encouraged to aspire to a high standard of duty, while not forgetting that their true happiness will always lie within the home circle.
