Kathy Leonard
R2,715 Discovery Miles 27 150 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Short annotations are provided for the anthologies, novels, and autobiographies. Thus the user who knows the title of a work can discover the author, the other works the author has written, and the anthologies in which the author's shorter pieces have been reprinted, along with information about particular works.

Judith Ranta
R2,408 Discovery Miles 24 080 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This annotated bibliography of 19th-century literature by and about American textile factory workers examines 457 texts, including novels, short fiction, poetry, drama, narratives, and children's literature, and offers new insights into 19th-century working-class culture. The textile industry was the premier and largest 19th-century industry in the United States. The texts, drawn from a variety of publications, such as workers' periodicals, mainstream publishers' monographs, newspapers, magazines, story papers, dime novels, pulp publications, and Sunday-school tracts, reveal the variety and complexity of the factory literature and represent the largest body of American working-class women's literature. The literature explores a number of women's concerns, such as their roles as workers, sexual harassment, marriage, motherhood, and homosexual and heterosexual relationships, and treats the factory work experience of hundreds of thousands of 19th-century children. Annotations are divided among 14 topical chapters that highlight such key issues as women's independence, class bias, child labor, technology, and protest. Most entries include information on text availability, including microform reprints and U.S. library holdings for rare titles. Scholars of 19th-century women's literature and history will value the full picture of 19th-century factory women's lives that emerges through the synopses of the literature. This work includes the first literary depictions of and protest against child labor, the first anti-factory poem, and the first fictional depiction of a strike. The more than 50 annotated texts that treat child labor offer new source material for the study of child labor in19th-century America. Appendices furnish a chronological listing of titles, a selection of nonfiction texts, and a listing of unavailable texts.

Folklore, Culture, and Aging - A Research Guide (Hardcover, Annotated edition): David P. Shuldiner Folklore, Culture, and Aging - A Research Guide (Hardcover, Annotated edition)
David P. Shuldiner
R2,394 Discovery Miles 23 940 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A resource guide by and about elders and the process of aging, this volume provides a list of over 1,500 references, all annotated, covering a wide range of subject areas. It is organized under such topics as "Customs and Beliefs," "Narratives," "Traditional Arts," "Health and Healing," and "Applied Folklore," and is further divided into regional and topical subheadings.

The introduction offers not only a description of the nature and role of elders as creators and carriers of culture, but also a challenge to readers--reflected in the broad range of materials cited--defying both narrow conceptions of aging and the aged, and limited notions about the full scope of expressive culture addressed by folklore studies.

Multicultural Writers from Antiquity to 1945 - A Bio-Bibliographical Sourcebook (Hardcover, New): Alba Amoia, Bettina L Knapp Multicultural Writers from Antiquity to 1945 - A Bio-Bibliographical Sourcebook (Hardcover, New)
Alba Amoia, Bettina L Knapp
R2,428 Discovery Miles 24 280 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The final decades of the 20th century have seen an explosion of interest in multiculturalism. But multiculturalism is more than an awareness of the different cultures comprising contemporary societies. For centuries, people from around the world have come in contact with cultures other than their own, and their exposure to multiple cultures has fostered their creativity and ability to make lasting contributions to civilization. The effects of multiculturalism are especially apparent in literature, since writers tend to be particularly aware of their environments and record their experiences.

This reference includes alphabetically arranged entries for more than 100 world writers from antiquity to 1945, who were significantly influenced by cultures other than their own. Included are entries for major canonical Ancient and Modern writers of the Western and Eastern worlds. Each entry is written by an expert contributor and includes a brief biography, a discussion of multicultural themes and contexts, a summary of the writer's critical reception, and primary and secondary bibliographies. By illuminating the shaping influence of multiculturalism on these writers, the volume points to the lasting value of multiculturalism in the contemporary world.

Richard Severson
R1,308 Discovery Miles 13 080 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The modern scholarly verdict about the Confessions has been nothing short of sensational. This work documents the story of 20th-century criticism and praise for Augustine's classic, an ancient text that has grown in stature like few other Western classics. Disciplines such as psychology, literature, and religion, plus many others, all claim it as their own. The first chapter of this study puts modern Confessions scholarship into historical context. The other chapters are devoted to autobiographical studies, literary influences, philosophical interpretations, psychology, spirituality, and theological themes. Of interest to scholars and students in many disciplines. At the end of the 19th century a new critical spirit of inquiry and scholarship helped to change how we think about religious texts. The new criticism uncovered problems with Augustine's Confessions; he may have dramatized events concerning his conversion to Christianity, for example. Yet, this work has proved to be relevant in the 20th century like few other ancient texts. That such variegated attention has been devoted to it is testimony to Augustine's enduring legacy. His stature in Western civilization is of the first order, comparable to Homer and Virgil, Plato and Aristotle, Moses and Paul.

Thomas More - An Annotated Bibliography of Criticism, 1935-1997 (Hardcover, Annotated edition): Albert J. Geritz Thomas More - An Annotated Bibliography of Criticism, 1935-1997 (Hardcover, Annotated edition)
Albert J. Geritz
R2,428 Discovery Miles 24 280 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Few people have had as enduring an influence as Thomas More (1478-1535), who--along with Erasmus, with whom he corresponded--was the quintessential Renaissance Humanist. More had a deep understanding of the classics. He wrote poems in Latin and prepared Latin translations of Lucian's Greek dialogues. Like so many thinkers of his day, he had a strong interest in the philosophy of education. Trained as a lawyer, he was also a leading political figure of his time. He became a member of Parliament in 1504, speaker of the House of Commons in 1523, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster in 1525, and Lord Chancellor in 1529. But most importantly, he was a theologian and religious leader and had once contemplated pursuing a religious vocation. He challenged the influence of Lutheranism; debated Christopher St. German about the limits of ecclesiastical jurisdiction in England; and wrote theological treatises on the sufferings of Christ, the nature of heresies, and other religious topics. Though he saw himself as the king's servant, he refused to acknowledge the authority of Henry VIII as spiritual head of England. For his defiance, he was executed; for his martyrdom, he was canonized. Many of his views are reflected in what is perhaps his most famous work, "Utopia, " in which he offers a fictional portrait of an ideal society.

Research on More has flourished in the centuries after his death, particularly since his canonization. This bibliography includes more than 1600 annotated entries for major works on his life and writings not only written in English, but also in French, German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese. It contains entries for books, chapters, journal articles, and numerous unpublished dissertations. The opening chapters cover reference works, editions, and editorial concerns. A chapter on biography precedes sections on general critical studies; More's reception, reputation, and influence; the religious and philosophical background of his works; and his language, style, and use of classical and Christian sources. Individual chapters then treat particular major works, such as his "History of King Richard III, " or clusters of his shorter writings, such as his English and Latin poems. Entries include cross-references, and the volume closes with a detailed index.
