Описание:
Irish author (Eleanor) Norah Hoult (1898-1984) traveled in prominent literary circles and corresponded actively with some of the leading Irish authors of her time, including Brigid Brophy, Sean O'Casey, and Sean O'Faolain. Critics today compare her not only to O'Faolain and Frank O'Connor, but also to novelists Kate O'Brien and Edna O'Brien. Despite her reputation and a forty-four year publishing career, however, Hoult and her work remain surprisingly neglected.
This edition rectifies this critical oversight and introduces Hoult's short story collection, 'Poor Women ', to a new generation of readers. 'Poor Women ' displays Hoult's subtlety and humor as an author and her nature as a keen witness to human frailty. In these stories, Hoult unflaggingly highlights the restrictions imposed on her characters by society and its institutions: she thus provides a window into the social, literary and political milieu from which she hails.
Largely cited for its engagement with women's and religious issues, 'Poor Women ' thus also displays a keen awareness of wider historical issues like the challenges of war and of cultural identity construction. Her incisive portraits capture the emotional paralysis of her characters and their self-delusions. Such thematic and stylistic emphases invite further comparison to better-known contemporary Irish literary giants like James Joyce and Mary Lavin.

Описание: The Mythology of the Animal Farm in Children's Literature: Over the Fence analyzes the ways in which myths about farmed animals lives are perpetuated in children s materials. Specifically, this book investigates the use of five recurring thematic devices in about eighty books for young children published during the past five decades. The close readings of texts and images draw on a wide range of fields, including animal theory, psychoanalytic and Marxian literary criticism, child development theory, histories of farming and domestication, and postcolonial theory. In spite of the underlying seriousness of the project, the material lends itself to what I hope are humorous and not overly heavy-handed explications that provide insight into the complex workings of a literary genre based on the covering up of real animal lives."

Описание: Life begins for us all at conception The egg is penetrated by the sperm and then, within sixty-five seconds, forty-six chromosomes are cajoled by dopamine The ecstatic high of dopamine sealed each one of our conceptions in a high of happiness that we all recall In the very instance called our zero hour, our life began and we not only saw the lights but we were that light spark of life. Life for us began at this point that our parents' cells were sealed with a happiness called our first high. Even before we had a heart, we had a forebrain that included the thymus gland in our cells when we were just a zygote. We all have a purpose in our DNA that responds to the very "cajoled by dopamine" high when our life cycle began at conception. Our life begins with conception, cycling only around the thymus; and then in maturity, the hypothalamus gland Every life cajoled by dopamine is remembered in a high of happiness that is shared only of this kind with our DNA parents Life begins at conception in a dopamine high that seals the two cells of the one male and his chosen female in a place that babies come from-heaven Come find out what a tank is and how it shoots an army into the highway of heaven. Find out what every child has, including you and yours, and what no child should be born without being cajoled by dopamine with what his DNA is searching for at birth and throughout its life Discover how two beautiful geraniums line the garden on each side of heaven. Only males can go to the pillars of heaven, kneeling in humbling minds at the doors of heaven that are called tulips Find out that heaven is a place you either have as a female or a place you can love to go as a male. Now that you are curiously amused, get a cup of peaceful tea and let's read about how we all are cajoled by dopamine

Описание:
The Fleece Inn stood where the three roads joined--to London, to Norwich and to the sea. Its trade was prosperous, its
hospitality famous and its host, fat Job, was jolly and generous--to his guests.
To his servants Job was cruel and menacing and to Ellie Roon, the most menial servant at the Fleece, he was a figure of
terror. Ellie was used to being shouted at and bullied, but when her illegitimate daughter was born--in a rat-ridden attic of the
Fleece--she decided that Hester must have a different kind of life.
And so Hester Roon, equipped with little more than courage and a strong will, began her eventful progress in the harsh
world of 18th century England. After fleeing from the inn, she became involved in the London underworld. From there she
was to find herself a destiny far beyond her imaginings.
