Book Friends in Exile

Download or read book Friends in Exile written by Brian Moloney and published by Troubador Publishing. This book was released on 2018-10-28 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book in English on the friendship that sprang up between these two major writers and the effects on both of that friendship. The encounter has long been undervalued by scholars, largely because Joyce and Svevo themselves appeared at times to attach relatively little importance to it, but it was in fact far from tangential to the development of their careers, coming as it did at key moments in their lives. This book is the first full study of the effect on both writers of their encounter and their unlikely friendship, in the light of the parallels between their life experiences and their shared culture. Stanislaus Joyce said: 'The happy chance that brought these two remarkable men together was a literary event that is likely to increase rather than decrease in interest in years to come'. A study of this unlikely friendship by an experienced Italianist will have much that is useful to say in this regard, particularly as our understanding of the importance of Svevo's Jewishness has changed greatly in recent years.

  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2010-06-04
  • ISBN : 0292792344
  • Pages : 202 pages

Download or read book Amigas written by Marjorie Agosín and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-06-04 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of letters chronicles a remarkable, long-term friendship between two women who, despite differences of religion and ethnicity, have followed remarkably parallel paths from their first adolescent meeting in their native Chile to their current lives in exile as writers, academics, and political activists in the United States. Spanning more than thirty years (1966-2000), Agosín's and Sepúlveda's letters speak eloquently on themes that are at once personal and political—family life and patriarchy, women's roles, the loneliness of being a religious or cultural outsider, political turmoil in Chile, and the experience of exile.

Book Dear Exile

Download or read book Dear Exile written by Hilary Liftin and published by Vintage. This book was released on 1999-04-27 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A funny and moving story told through the letters of two women nurturing a friendship as they are separated by distance, experience, and time. Close friends and former college roommates, Hilary Liftin and Kate Montgomery promised to write when Kate's Peace Corps assignment took her to Africa. Over the course of a single year, they exchanged an offbeat and moving series of letters from rural Kenya to New York City and back again. Kate, an idealistic teacher, meets unexpected realities ranging from poisonous snakes and vengeful cows to more serious hazards: a lack of money for education; a student body in revolt. Hilary, braving the singles scene in Manhattan, confronts her own realities, from unworthy suitors to job anxiety and first apartment woes. Their correspondence tells--with humor, warmth, and vivid personal detail--the story of two young women navigating their twenties in very different ways, and of the very special friendships we are sometimes lucky enough to find.

Book A Circle of Friends

Download or read book A Circle of Friends written by Angela Jianu and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-03-24 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angela Jianu explores the lives and activities of a group of Romanian revolutionaries exiled in Paris, London and the Middle East in the aftermath of the insurrections of 1848. Drawing largely on diaries, memoirs and private correspondence, A Circle of Friends is a social history of political exile, presenting the personal life dramas of the protagonists within the wider context of the European post-revolutionary turmoil of the 1850s. Exile and political repression allied this group not only to their Hungarian and Polish peers, but also to French republicans, English radicals and Italian freedom-fighters. Their story reveals the existence of transnational networks of left-wing, radical and republican movements in mid-nineteenth-century Europe against the background of nation-building projects in East-Central Europe.

Book Eve in Exile  The Restoration of Femininity

Download or read book Eve in Exile The Restoration of Femininity written by Rebekah Merkle and published by Canon Press & Book Service. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The swooning Victorian ladies and the 1950s housewives genuinely needed to be liberated. That much is indisputable. So, First-Wave feminists held rallies for women's suffrage. Second-Wave feminists marched for Prohibition, jobs, and abortion. Today, Third-Wave feminists stand firmly for nobody's quite sure what. But modern women--who use psychotherapeutic antidepressants at a rate never before seen in history--need liberating now more than ever. The truth is, feminists don't know what liberation is. They have led us into a very boring dead end. Eve in Exile sets aside all stereotypes of mid-century housewives, of China-doll femininity, of Victorians fainting, of women not allowed to think for themselves or talk to the men about anything interesting or important. It dismisses the pencil-skirted and stiletto-heeled executives of TV, the outspoken feminists freed from all that hinders them, the brave career women in charge of their own destinies. Once those fictionalized stereotypes are out of the way--whether they're things that make you gag or things you think look pretty fun--Christians can focus on real women. What did God make real women for?

Download or read book Friends in Exile written by Lloyd Bryce and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Friends in Exile: A Tale of Diplomacy, Coronets, and Hearts It was a large, commodious apartment of a large, commodious house, furnished with that old-time primness which has an attractiveness quite its own. All spoke of comfort; the huge four-poster bedstead and the mahogany chest of drawers and wardrobes; while the exquisite tidiness everywhere gave evidence of the house wifely qualities of the mistress. For Mr. Jackson was a very fortunate man, both in his marriage and in his public career. Beginning life as a lawyer, he had reached the bench by thirty-seven, he had been attorney-general of his State at forty, had served several terms in both houses of Congress, and finally, the ambassador to France passing to an equally pleasant post, let us hope, in another world, the vacant place had been offered to Mr. Jackson. At last, pausing in his restless walk, he resumed The way things have turned out, I have but one cause of irritation, Martha, and that's the noise the papers are making over a speech I made two years ago in the senate.
