Pushkin's Tatiana
Author: Olga Peters Hasty
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 9780299164041
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
In the last decades of the nineteenth century, two thousand women physicians formed a significant and lively scientific community in the United States. Many were active writers; they participated in the development of medical record-keeping and research, and they wrote self-help books, social and political essays, fiction, and poetry. Out of the Dead House rediscovers the contributions these women made to the developing practice of medicine and to a community of women in science. Susan Wells combines studies of medical genres, such as the patient history or the diagnostic conversation, with discussions of individual writers. The women she discusses include Ann Preston, the first woman dean of a medical college; Hannah Longshore, a successful practitioner who combined conventional and homeopathic medicine; Rebecca Crumpler, the first African American woman physician to publish a medical book; and Mary Putnam Jacobi, writer of more than 180 medical articles and several important books. Wells shows how these women learned to write, what they wrote, and how these texts were read. Out of the Dead House also documents the ways that women doctors influenced medical discourse during the formation of the modern profession. They invented forms and strategies for medical research and writing, including methods of using survey information, taking patient histories, and telling case histories. Out of the Dead House adds a critical episode to the developing story of women as producers and critics of culture, including scientific culture."

Daily Life in Russia under the Last Tsar
Author: Henri Troyat
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 9780804710305
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
This book is a vivid account of life in Moscow, "the most Russian of Russian cities," in the year 1903, a year before Russia's disastrous war with Japan and two years before the momentous Revolution of 1905. Though the undercurrents of social change were running swiftly, the surface stability of the Tsarist regime show no indication of the turmoil ahead. The author, who is perhaps best known for his biography Tolstoy, describes Russian life through the eyes of a fictional young Englishman visiting a prosperous Russian merchant family. All facets of Moscow life are covered, from entertainment and night life to family life and the devotions of the Orthodox. We learn about Russia's factory workers and peasants, its soldiers and lawyers, its priests and its city officials, its Tsar and his entourage: what they do and what they wear, what they think and what they dream. Concluding chapters take our visitor to the famous fair at Nizhny-Novgorod, which was held every year from July 15 to September 10, and on a boat trip down the Volga.

Literary Scholarship in Late Imperial Russia (1870s-1917)
Author: Andy Dr. Byford
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351195816
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
"The turn of the twentieth century was a decisive moment in the institutionalisation of Russia's literary scholarship. This is the first book in the English language to provide an in-depth analysis of the emergence of Russia's literary academia in the pre-Revolutionary era. In particular, Byford examines the rhetoric of self-representation of major academic establishments devoted to literary study, the canonisation of exemplary literary historians and philologists (Buslaev, Grot, Veselovskii, Potebnia, Ovsianiko-Kulikovskii), and attempts by Russian literary academics of this era to define their work as a distinct form of scholarship (nauka). By analysing a range of academic rituals, from celebrations of institutional anniversaries to professors inaugural lectures, and by dissecting the discourse of scholars' obituaries, commemorative speeches and manuals in scholarly methodology, Byford reveals how the identity of literary studies as a discipline was constructed in Russia. He provides not only a unique insight into fin-de-siecle Russian literary scholarship, but also an original approach to academic institutionalisation more widely."

Growing up Russian in China
Author: Tatiana Erohina
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1462055931
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 129
Book Description
The central motif of this unique historical memoir is the life of the authors family in Dairen (now Dalian) during the Japanese occupation, then the Soviet occupation, and, finally, under the Chinese Communist Government. Ms. Erohina gave the background of the historical events which affected the lives of the Russians, the Chinese, and the Japanese during the Second World War and the postwar years. She explains why the Russians lived in China, and how they not only preserved their culture and language but contributed greatly to the fields of science, music, and literature. Some lived there at the turn of the 20th Century as businessmen, and many came to Manchuria (now Northeast of the Peoples Republic of China) during the railway construction, which was a branch of the Trans-Siberian Railroad. The majority, however, came as refugees fleeing from the Bolsheviks during the Civil War that immediately followed the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. Th e Civil War split the people into the Reds, or the Bolsheviks, and the Whites, who apposed them. The authors grandparents were among the refugees. Ms. Erohina described her familys move to Shanghai in 1954 as a transit point for the departure from China, and gave a detailed account of its early and postwar years, and its impact on the lives of Russian migrs. Then, followed the familys journey as refugees by sea from China via Hong Kong and many ports from Singapore to South Africa, and then to Brazil. She touched upon their life in Sao Paulo, Brazil in 1950s, and then their trip to the United States in 1958 where the family fi nally settled. Author: Tatiana Erohina is a retired college language instructor. She was born and raised in NE China, lived in Brazil, and came to this country in 1958. She has an M.A. in literature from Ohio State University. When she retired, she wrote her unique historical memoir Growing Up Russian in China. She lives in Southern California.
