Women Writers and Old Age in Great Britain, 1750-1850
Author: Devoney Looser
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 0801887054
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
This groundbreaking study explores the later lives and late-life writings of more than two dozen British women authors active during the long eighteenth century. Drawing on biographical materials, literary texts, and reception histories, Devoney Looser finds that far from fading into moribund old age, female literary greats such as Anna Letitia Barbauld, Frances Burney, Maria Edgeworth, Catharine Macaulay, Hester Lynch Piozzi, and Jane Porter toiled for decades after they achieved acclaim -- despite seemingly concerted attempts by literary gatekeepers to marginalize their later contributions. Though these remarkable women wrote and published well into old age, Looser sees in their late careers the necessity of choosing among several different paths. These included receding into the background as authors of "classics," adapting to grandmotherly standards of behavior, attempting to reshape masculinized conceptions of aged wisdom, or trying to create entirely new categories for older women writers. In assessing how these writers affected and were affected by the culture in which they lived, and in examining their varied reactions to the prospect of aging, Looser constructs careful portraits of each of her Subjects and explains why many turned toward retrospection in their later works. In illuminating the powerful and often poorly recognized legacy of the British women writers who spurred a marketplace revolution in their earlier years only to find unanticipated barriers to acceptance in later life, Looser opens up new scholarly territory in the burgeoning field of feminist age studies.

Holy Women, Holy Men
Author: Church Publishing,
Publisher: Church Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 0898696372
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 798
Book Description
Fully revised and expanded, this new work is the first major revision of the liturgical calendar of the Episcopal Church in more than 40 years! It is the official revision of Lesser Feasts and Fasts and authorized by the 2009 General Convention. All commemorations in Lesser Feasts and Fasts have been retained, and many new ones added. Three scripture readings (instead of current two) are provided for all minor holy days. Additional new material includes a votive mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary, many more ecumenical commemorations, plus a proper for space exploration. For years the oft revised volume, Lesser Feasts and Fasts (LFF), has served parishes and individuals mark part of the holiness of each day by providing Scripture readings, a collect, a Eucharistic preface, and a narrative about those remembered on the church's calendar that day whose lives have witnessed to the grace of God. Holy Women, Holy Men (HWHM) is a major effort to revise, but also to expand and enrich LFF. Where LFF provided two readings (gospel and other New Testament) plus a psalm, HWHM adds an Old Testament citation. Where LFF was limited to few non-Anglicans in the post-reformation period (and few non-Episcopalians after 1789), HWHM dramatically broadens appreciation for other Christians and their traditions. Over-emphasis on clergy is redressed by additional laity, males by females, and "in-church" activities by contributions well beyond the workings of institutional agendas. These almost daily commemorations occupy over 600 of the book's 785 pages, by far the lion's share of its content. Remaining sections address: principles of revision and guides for future revision; liturgical propers for seasons (Advent/Christmas, Lent, and Easter); and new propers for a miscellany of propers usable with individuals (or events) not officially listed in the formal calendar. Two cycles of propers for daily Eucharist are also included, one covering a six week period, the other a two year cycle.

Book Description
Don't let your teen struggle alone any longer. Instead, help them overcome their anxiety and feel happier, while protecting them from extreme stress! Is your child struggling with school? Do they seem distant while avoiding emotional connections? Are you worried about your child's mental health? If you notice sudden changes in your child's behavior, it can be a big concern for you. But you don't have to worry-you can help your anxious teen by using this in-depth self-help guide. One in five teenagers is likely to experience chronic anxiety sometime during their younger years. And this can be an alarming statistic for parents, especially if you have noticed recent behavioral differences in your child. Your child could be withdrawing from friends, staying in their room too often, or finding themselves constantly irritable and angry at everything. While every teenager goes through similar changes, these can also be signs of your child suffering from emotional and mental challenges. If they are dealing with internal stress that isn't evident to everyone else, they may not know who to turn to for help, and this can lead to depression if it is left untreated. You can act now and be present for your child by learning the signs of teenage anxiety in this comprehensive guide, including how you can help your child overcome these negative feelings. Helping Your Anxious Teen is filled with real-life situations and experiences pulled from author Katherine Guzman's own challenges. Through years of understanding how her child's mind works differently, she has been able to help them overcome their anxiety. Now, she shares all her knowledge with you! You can avoid mistakes without searching for hours through web pages and psychology books, because she has done it all for you. This self-help guide is filled with researched knowledge, first-hand experience, and practical techniques to help you and your child. Inside Helping Your Anxious Teen, you will discover: How to recognize anxiety in adolescents The causes of teenager anxiety The consequences of untreated anxiety Your role in your child's mental state Warning signs of adolescent anxiety Treatment solutions for anxiety How to notice and prevent suicidal teenagers A guide to finding the best help for your child And so much more! Navigating this new situation can be difficult, especially when you feel as though you are going through this alone. But you are not alone-and this book is here to help. While childhood anxiety is a real fear for parents, it is something your child can overcome. Providing your child with the tools to be mindful of their feelings and express themselves is important for their development. Also included is a bonus section on how to look after yourself as a parent. Your mental health is just as important, and your child usually feeds off your energy.

Cycling and Cinema
Author: Bruce Bennett
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 1906897999
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
A unique exploration of the history of the bicycle in cinema, from Hollywood blockbusters and slapstick comedies to documentaries, realist dramas, and experimental films. Cycling and Cinema explores the history of the bicycle in cinema from the late nineteenth century through to the present day. In this new book from Goldsmiths Press, Bruce Bennett examines a wide variety of films from around the world, ranging from Hollywood blockbusters and slapstick comedies to documentaries, realist dramas, and experimental films, to consider the complex, shifting cultural significance of the bicycle. The bicycle is an everyday technology, but in examining the ways in which bicycles are used in films, Bennett reveals the rich social and cultural importance of this apparently unremarkable machine. The cinematic bicycles discussed in this book have various functions. They are the source of absurd comedy in silent films, and the vehicles that allow their owners to work in sports films and social realist cinema. They are a means of independence and escape for children in melodramas and kids' films, and the tools that offer political agency and freedom to women, as depicted in films from around the world. In recounting the cinematic history of the bicycle, Bennett reminds us that this machine is not just a practical means of transport or a child's toy, but the vehicle for a wide range of meanings concerning individual identity, social class, nationhood and belonging, family, gender, and sexuality and pleasure. As this book shows, two hundred years on from its invention, the bicycle is a revolutionary technology that retains the power to transform the world.
