Download or read book Blanche of Apalachin written by Rod Lee and published by Author House. This book was released on 2012-08-29 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A woman succumbs to old age, in 1982. Thirty years later, Samantha Beatrice "Sweet Bea" Jakes, in need of material for a school essay, asks her grandfather "who was the greatest person that ever lived?" She does not get the answer she expects. Instead of "the usual suspects--prophet, explorer, philanthropist, architect, statesman, inventor, athlete, soldier, humanitarian, philanthropist, firefighter, cop, doctor, nurse--she is told the story of a little known, Scripture-quoting, Satan-defying Pennsylvania farm girl-turned-disciple for Christ named "Blanche." In this first work of fiction from author Rod Lee, Sweet Bea's initial disappointment at Ernest Jakes' surprising choice turns to awe and admiration as she hears of the faith that sustains Blanche Baxter through a series of trying physical and emotional challenges. Sweet Bea is moved to tears of joy and sorrow upon learning of Blanche's survival after being bitten by a deadly snake in her native Keystone State, of her years of witness for "my Lord and Savior," of her uncanny mastery of prayer and the piano and hymn singing, of her run-in with mobsters gathered for an historic Mafia "convention" in Apalachin, New York, of her grief at the passing of one son and the betrayal of another, and finally of her reaction to a treacherous act attempted by a son-in-law whose heart is filled with malice toward her. By the time Ernest Jakes' account of Blanche's soaring life reaches its tense, shocking and ironic conclusion amid a major earthquake at the base of California's San Gabriel Mountains, young Sweet Bea realizes that she was wrong to dismiss this plain-spoken, stalwart Christian woman so quickly. She is left with a second question, even more pressing than the first: Who was "Blanche of Apalachin?"

Download or read book A Half century of Greatness written by Frederic Ewen and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2007-09 with total page 589 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Half-Century of Greatness paints a vivid and dramatic picture of the creative thought of mid- to late nineteenth century Europe and the influence of the unsuccessful Revolutions of 1848. It reveals often unexpected links between novelists, poets, and philosophers from England, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Russia, and Ukraine-especially Dickens, Carlyle, Mill, the Bront?s, and George Eliot; Hegel, Strauss, Feuerbach, Marx, Engels, Wagner, and several German poets; the Hungarian poet Sndor Petfi; Gogol, Dostoevsky, Bakunin, and Herzen in Russia, and the great Ukrainian poet Shevchenko.The book was reconstructed and edited by Dr. Jeffrey Wollock from Ewen's final manuscript. It includes the author's own reference citations throughout, a reconstructed bibliography, and an updated "further reading" list.This is Ewen's last work, the long-lost companion to his Heroic Imagination. Together, these books present a panorama of the social, political, and artistic aspects of European Romanticism, especially foreshadowing and complementing recent work on the relation of Marxism to romanticism. Anyone interested in what Lukacs called "Romantic anticapitalism," who appreciates such books as Marshall Berman's Adventures in Marxism (1999) Lwy & Sayre's Romanticism against the Tide of Modernity (2001) or E.P. Thompson's The Romantics (1997), will find the Ewen volumes a welcome addition.
