Book English Female Artists  Vol  2 of 2  Classic Reprint

Download or read book English Female Artists Vol 2 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Ellen Creathorne Clayton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Female Artists, Vol. 2 of 2 The next two years drifted away thus, divided between London and the old country home - an intensely happy time. The young girl felt she was making good progress, and was at length on the right track. While in London, she found herself for the first time in a circle of artists. Mr. Herbert continued from time to time to overlook her work, and to give her his valuable advice; and thankfully does she remember that to him she is indebted for the only art assistance she ever had, with the exception of a subsequent winter, when Mr. Hodgson, also helped her by occasional visits of counsel and criticism. To him also is due most heartfelt thanks. In order to understand her later works, it is necessary to touch on a subject which must be reverently and delicately approached. At this time her mind was set at rest on a question by which it had long been agitated. She had been brought up in an atmosphere more resembling the higher and more moral side of the old Grecian philosophers than any Christian sect. By nature deeply devotional, she united these art struggles with religious aspirations and vague yearnings. With those who are living, it is impossible to speak of such phases of thought.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Female Artists, Vol. 1 of 2 Our native paintresses, as the old-fashioned art critics and compilers of biographical dictionaries quaintly term them, have left but faintly impressed footprints on the sands of time. They do not glitter in the splendour of renown, like their sisters of the pen or of the buskin. It is a difficult task to obtain a sparse list of their original works, or glean any scattered remarks on their most valued copies of great masters. Even the most romantic or admired of these fair dreamers on canvas Cr ivory have scarce an inci dent beyond the commonplace in the brief record of their public or private career.

Book Mastering the Art of French Cooking  Volume 1

Download or read book Mastering the Art of French Cooking Volume 1 written by Julia Child and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 857 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The definitive cookbook on French cuisine for American readers: "What a cookbook should be: packed with sumptuous recipes, detailed instructions, and precise line drawings. Some of the instructions look daunting, but as Child herself says in the introduction, 'If you can read, you can cook.'" —Entertainment Weekly “I only wish that I had written it myself.” —James Beard Featuring 524 delicious recipes and over 100 instructive illustrations to guide readers every step of the way, Mastering the Art of French Cooking offers something for everyone, from seasoned experts to beginners who love good food and long to reproduce the savory delights of French cuisine. Julia Child, Simone Beck, and Louisette Bertholle break down the classic foods of France into a logical sequence of themes and variations rather than presenting an endless and diffuse catalogue of dishes—from historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas. Throughout, the focus is on key recipes that form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves to an infinite number of elaborations—bound to increase anyone’s culinary repertoire. “Julia has slowly but surely altered our way of thinking about food. She has taken the fear out of the term ‘haute cuisine.’ She has increased gastronomic awareness a thousandfold by stressing the importance of good foundation and technique, and she has elevated our consciousness to the refined pleasures of dining." —Thomas Keller, The French Laundry

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Women in English Life, Vol. 2 of 2: From Mediaevsl to Modern Times In earlier ages the life of the State was the life of the people. Every citizen of every city in Greece had a voice in directing the destinies of his country. In early England the civil polity was a polity composed of the people and the people's representatives. The principle was the same, and the change to a more aristocratic form was only effected by the retention of a large measure of the democratic principle.

Book Teaching Modernist Women s Writing in English

Download or read book Teaching Modernist Women s Writing in English written by Janine Utell and published by Modern Language Association. This book was released on 2021-04-25 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As authors and publishers, individuals and collectives, women significantly shaped the modernist movement. While figures such as Virginia Woolf and Gertrude Stein have received acclaim, authors from marginalized communities and those who wrote for mass, middlebrow audiences also created experimental and groundbreaking work. The essays in this volume explore formal aspects and thematic concerns of modernism while also challenging rigid notions of what constitutes literary value as well as the idea of a canon with fixed boundaries. The essays contextualize modernist women's writing in the material and political concerns of the early twentieth century and in life on the home front during wartime. They consider the original print contexts of the works and propose fresh digital approaches for courses ranging from high school through graduate school. Suggested assignments provide opportunities for students to write creatively and critically, recover forgotten literary works, and engage with their communities.
