Описание:
The book discusses the fundamental problem of how to combine the degree of individual initiative, which is necessary for progress, with the degree of social cohesion, which is necessary for survival. A community needs, if it is to prosper, a certain number of individuals who do not wholly conform to the general type. Practically all progress, artistic, moral and intellectual, has depended on such individuals who have been a decisive factor in the transition from barbarism to civilization. The book concludes that the need of the day is a socio-cultural grafting of the two best elements of the individual and the society.
The book is a valuable resource for both personal and academic research. It provides many clear images of Rand's and Achebe's theories. It applies to sundry audiences like philosophers (who may be interested in Rand's theory of objectivism and Achebe's view of the world), sociologists (who are interested in contemporary life and culture) and researchers of Rand and Achebe.

Описание:
Literary studies and their associated critical theories offer a refreshing viewpoint from which humanist-oriented studies of ageing may be re-conceptualized, and an integrated view of ageing and gender can be developed. The present volume builds on the work of seminal authors in the field of literary gerontology, while it also elaborates on important theories that age-critics have developed in the broader field of cultural gerontology, to present the experience of ageing, and old age in particular, as a creative phase of the life course that completes the older person’s identity and, specifically, that of the older woman. As a contrast to stereotypical views of ageing women that are still sustained in both gerontological and social domains, the essays in this collection focus on the works of eleven women writers whose careers were or have been prolonged into their old age, and whose later literary creativity reveals fascinating aspects about both the complex, contradictory, and enriching experience of growing older, and especially of doing so as an artist and as a woman.
