Download or read book Family Circle written by Susan Braudy and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Kathy Boudin was arrested in 1981 after a botched armed robbery and shootout that left a Brinks guard and two policemen dead, she ended a decade living underground as part of the radical Weathermen underground; she would spend the next 22 years in Bedford Hills prison. In Family Circle, Boudin’s former classmate Susan Braudy vividly re-creates the radicalization of this intelligent, privileged young woman who came from one of the most prominent liberal intellectual families in America. She illuminates Boudin’s relationship with her parents --and particularly with her father Leonard, a famous leftist lawyer--and shows how Kathy, swept up in the ferment of the late 1960s, moved further and further from the Old Left ideals they embodied. Based on extensive interviews, court documents, and Boudin family papers,Family Circle is both a rich biography of a family and a intimate window into a turbulent and fascinating time.

Download or read book Make Room for TV written by Lynn Spigel and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-06 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1948 and 1955, nearly two-thirds of all American families bought a television set—and a revolution in social life and popular culture was launched. In this fascinating book, Lynn Spigel chronicles the enormous impact of television in the formative years of the new medium: how, over the course of a single decade, television became an intimate part of everyday life. What did Americans expect from it? What effects did the new daily ritual of watching television have on children? Was television welcomed as an unprecedented "window on the world," or as a "one-eyed monster" that would disrupt households and corrupt children? Drawing on an ambitious array of unconventional sources, from sitcom scripts to articles and advertisements in women's magazines, Spigel offers the fullest available account of the popular response to television in the postwar years. She chronicles the role of television as a focus for evolving debates on issues ranging from the ideal of the perfect family and changes in women's role within the household to new uses of domestic space. The arrival of television did more than turn the living room into a private theater: it offered a national stage on which to play out and resolve conflicts about the way Americans should live. Spigel chronicles this lively and contentious debate as it took place in the popular media. Of particular interest is her treatment of the way in which the phenomenon of television itself was constantly deliberated—from how programs should be watched to where the set was placed to whether Mom, Dad, or kids should control the dial. Make Room for TV combines a powerful analysis of the growth of electronic culture with a nuanced social history of family life in postwar America, offering a provocative glimpse of the way television became the mirror of so many of America's hopes and fears and dreams.

Download or read book Family Circle written by Maldwyn Edwards and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-05-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book Dr. Maldwyn Edwards has written a wholly absorbing study of the Epworth Rectory. In his vivid and scholarly work the members of that famous family circle come again to life. In contradiction of much recent criticism of the Rector, Dr. Edwards reveals the true and heroic proportions of the man. He examines at length the educational methods and writings of Susanna, and throws new light on her relations with her husband and her family. A fascinating chapter deals with the family ghost and not only attempts an explanation but shows the effect of 'old Jeffrey' upon John Wesley. An important section of the book deals with Samuel, the eldest brother. He was Churchman, Jacobite, poet, school-master, and important in his own right. The sisters have been overshadowed by their more famous brothers, but they were all remarkable, and in this book their separate stories are told. There is a careful inquiry into the life of the lovely and distinguished Hetty Wesley, the most accomplished and unhappy of them all. Finally, the relations of the family circle with each other, and with John and Charles Wesley, are brought under a lively scrutiny. Family Circle is a standard book on a subject all too little known, and yet one which is indispensable for an understanding of the Wesleys and of the rise of Methodism. It will appeal to the specialist and the general reader alike, for it tells the story of the most famous Rectory in English territory.
