Download or read book Watford and South West Herts in the Great War written by Eugenia Russell and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the importance of Watford as a regional centre within South West Herts during the years of the Great War as well as the cohesion of the local area and the impact events and initiatives had on the entire region. The organization and presence of the Army are discussed before focusing on different aspects of civilian life such as the contribution of civilians to the war effort, the Police and Fire Service, the role of Churches, Schools and the Press and changes in employment and local businesses. As the War wore on and the magnitude of the sacrifice sunk in, hospitals and charities became more prominent. The latter part of the book presents these as well as the many public and private ways of commemorating the War Dead in the aftermath of the conflict. The distinctiveness of such Memorials reflects the legacy of the Arts and Crafts Movement and the artistic communities resident in Bushey and Watford.

Download or read book Lillian written by WR Woodbury and published by WR Woodbury. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Halfway through the First World War, a young English woman finds herself an unwed mother for the second time. She survives the bombing of London and emigrates to Canada to raise her children with a sequence of husbands. Her daughter falls in love with a country boy who is wrenched away by the Second World War, but returns safely to a humdrum suburban life and steady work on the railways. Their marriage is strained by his work absences, suspected dalliances, the problems of raising a family of girls, and the inevitable truces of middle age. As the women's lives merge and separate, their stories are interwoven, with the daughter's told in reverse order. We meet women who persist and find ways to adapt to the male dominated society. Through illogical love in the time of Edwardian patriarchy, to the stormy seas of poverty, the bite of the Canadian winter, and horrifying stillness of personal tragedy, it is the women in the story who stay strong. They do what mothers have always done, and shoulder the ultimate responsibility for their families. The women survive while the men come and go.

Book excerpt: The first anthology of its kind, Manifesto features over two hundred artistic and cultural manifestos from a wide range of countries. The manifesto, a public statement that sets forth the tenets of a forthcoming, existing, or potential movement or "ism"?or that plays on the idea of one?became in various modernisms aøcrucial and forceful vehicle for artists, writers, and other intellectuals to express their ideas about the direction of aesthetics and society. Included in this collection are texts ranging from Kurt Schwitters's Cow Manifesto to those written in the name of well-known movements?imagism, cubism, surrealism, symbolism, vorticism, projectivism?and less well-known ones?lettrism, acmeism, concretism, rayonism. Also covered are expressionist, Dada, and futurist movements from French, Italian, Russian, Spanish, and Latin American perspectives, as well as local movements, such as Brazilian hallucinism. Influential, startling, unsettling, amusing, and continually engaging, these modernist manifestos give voice to a fascinating array of ideas and opinions that will prove invaluable to scholars and students of nineteenth and twentieth-century art, literature, and culture.

Download or read book Selected Letters of Wilfred Owen written by Jane Potter and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-07-11 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new, select edition of Wilfred Owen's letters provides a fresh understanding of the poet's life in his own words. Wilfred Owen's fame as one of the great war poets of the twentieth century is unsurpassed, with Dulce et Decorum est possibly the defining piece of World War literature. Owen's letters reveal the man behind the cultural icon; human with all his foibles, whose 25 years were marked by great highs and lows, by emerging modernity, and the violence of war. Evocative, lyrical, and often surprisingly funny, the letters act as both autobiography and companion to the famous war poems. He was both an accomplished poet and one of the finest letter-writers of the twentieth century. Accompanied by new notes and new introduction, as well as previously redacted and omitted material, the new edition of Owen's Selected Letters brings together past and contemporary scholarship to provide fresh insights into Owen's character and poetic development.
