This book was released on 2019-06-05 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin American Adventures in Literary Journalismexplores the central role of narrative journalism in the formation of national identities in Latin America, and the concomitant role the genre had in the consolidation of the idea of Latin America as a supra-national entity. This work discusses the impact that the form had in the creation of an original Latin American literature during six historical moments. Beginning in the 1840s and ending in the 1970s, Calvi connects the evolution of literary journalism with the consolidation of Latin America’s literary sphere, the professional practice of journalism, the development of the modern mass media, and the establishment of nation-states in the region.

Book excerpt: The beloved New York Times columnist "inspires women to embrace aging and look at it with a new sense of hope" in this lively, fascinating, eye-opening look at women and aging in America (Parade Magazine). "You're not getting older, you're getting better," or so promised the famous 1970's ad -- for women's hair dye. Americans have always had a complicated relationship with aging: embrace it, deny it, defer it -- and women have been on the front lines of the battle, willingly or not. In her lively social history of American women and aging, acclaimed New York Times columnist Gail Collins illustrates the ways in which age is an arbitrary concept that has swung back and forth over the centuries. From Plymouth Rock (when a woman was considered marriageable if "civil and under fifty years of age"), to a few generations later, when they were quietly retired to elderdom once they had passed the optimum age for reproduction, to recent decades when freedom from striving in the workplace and caretaking at home is often celebrated, to the first female nominee for president, American attitudes towards age have been a moving target. Gail Collins gives women reason to expect the best of their golden years.

Download or read book The Adventures of Tom Sawyer written by Mark Twain and published by Modernista. This book was released on 2024-05-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Twain's childhood portrayal The Adventures of Tom Sawyer [1876] is among the most beloved American novels of all time. Tom Sawyer is reputed to be a mischief-maker. He lives with his aunt Polly in the deeply religious small town of Saint Petersburg, but when they go to church, he prefers to amuse himself by agitating a beetle rather than listening to the sermon. The summer depicted in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is spent on pranks and youthful adventures, often with his friend Huckleberry Finn, who is »cordially hated and dreaded by all the mothers of the town.« MARK TWAIN [1835-1910] was an American author raised in Missouri, which also serves as the setting for several of his novels. He is most renowned for the timeless depictions of childhood in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer [1876] and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn [1884]. Twain's literary legacy is deeply intertwined with the American identity, with William Faulkner considering him the father of American literature, and Ernest Hemingway stating, »All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.«

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set as the sequel to the classic American novel by Mark Twain, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has earned its rightful place as an icon in literary history. Poised as one of the first novels to attract the American masses with its readable text style, Mark Twain wrote about the controversial subject matter regarding the unlikely friendship between a boy and a fugitive slave. After a life-changing adventure with his comrade, Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, “Huck,” as he’s known, must figure out how to deal with his new life in the aftermath of finding a significant amount of money along the banks of the Mississippi River. Protecting what’s rightfully his, Huck keeps the money in a trust, tucked away from his drunken father. With the weight of numerous county judges siding with the responsibility of Huck’s father in securing the money, Huck fears his life of independence has been hopelessly squandered. Forced to endure confinement and relentless abuse, Huck takes matters into his own hands, leading him on the adventure, and a new friendship of a lifetime. Scared, lonely, and fiercely independent, Huck Finn must learn that in order to survive he must become comfortable with the uncomfortable. Huck must learn to trust those around him, and most importantly, to be brave in the face of extreme hardship. With an eye-catching new cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this version of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is modern and readable.
