Book Description
"Englewood Tales" is a series of interrelated short stories about African American children and teenagers growing up on the Southside of Chicago during the 1970s and 1980s. Each unique story is told from the viewpoint of its own hero or heroine faced with - and responding to - personal conflicts, ranging from bullying, incest, and child abuse, to sexual behavior, murder, death, and homosexuality. While "Englewood Tales" is about children and teenagers, it is not a "children's" book. The language, as well as the subject matter, is both candid and framed for a mature audience, who can appreciate having come through to the other side.

Author: Rosan A. Jordan
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 081229338X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
The essays in Women's Folklore, Women's Culture focus on women performers of folklore and on women's genre of folklore.

All of the authors also explore the relationship between make and female views and worlds. The book begins with the private world of women, performances within the intimacy of family and fields; it then studies women's folklore in the public arena; finally, the book looks at the interrelationships between public and private arenas and between male and female activities. By turning our attention to previously ignored women's realms, these essays provide a new perspective from which to view human culture as a whole and make Women's Folklore, Women's Culture a significant addition to folklore scholarship
