Book excerpt: "Father and Son: A Study of Two Temperaments" is an autobiographical work by English author Edmund Gosse, first published in 1907. The book is a unique exploration of the complex relationship between Gosse and his father, Philip Henry Gosse, a renowned naturalist and marine biologist. The narrative is structured as a memoir and provides a deep and introspective look into the dynamics of the Gosse family. Edmund Gosse, who grew up in a strict, evangelical household, recounts his experiences of navigating the contrasting worlds of his father's religious fervor and his own emerging literary and intellectual interests. One of the central conflicts in the book revolves around the clash between science and religion. Philip Henry Gosse was a devout Christian who held strict religious beliefs, while his son Edmund was drawn to the world of literature, art, and secular thought. The tension between these two worldviews becomes a prominent theme in "Father and Son." Edmund Gosse's portrayal of his father is both affectionate and critical. The book delves into the challenges faced by a son who, while deeply respecting his father, must find his own path in a world that is rapidly changing. "Father and Son" is not only a personal narrative but also a cultural and historical document that reflects the intellectual and religious currents of the Victorian era. The book is celebrated for its candid exploration of the complexities of familial relationships, the struggle for individual identity, and the broader societal shifts occurring in the late 19th century. Edmund Gosse's skillful blending of personal and intellectual reflections makes "Father and Son" a compelling and influential work in the genre of autobiographical literature. It remains a classic for its exploration of the interplay between tradition and modernity, science and faith, and the bonds that tie generations together.

Download or read book Glimpses of the Wonderful written by Ann Thwaite and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, Philip Henry Gosse is remembered, if at all, as the patriarch and tyrannical religious maniac in his son Edmund's memoir, Father and Son. This is a vivid reassessment of the life of Philip Henry Gosse, the renowned Victorian naturalist, author, illustrator and Christian fundamentalist, who as both friend and antagonist of Charles Darwin, was at the very heart of the Victorian conflict between science and religion. Thwaite shows that Gosse believed that "the gratification of scientific curiosity is worse than useless if we ignore God."--Publisher.

Download or read book Writing Lives Together written by Felicity James and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-27 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A diary entry, begun by a wife and finished by a husband; a map of London, its streets bearing the names of forgotten lives; biographies of siblings, and of spouses; a poem which gives life to long-dead voices from the archives. All these feature in this volume as examples of ‘writing lives together’: British life writing which has been collaboratively authored and/or joins together the lives of multiple subjects. The contributions to this book range over published and unpublished material from the late eighteenth to the late nineteenth centuries, including biography, auto/biographical memoirs, letters, diaries, sermons, maps and directories. The book closes with essays by contemporary, practising biographers, Daisy Hay and Laurel Brake, who explain their decisions to move away from the single subject in writing the lives of figures from the Romantic and Victorian periods. We conclude with the reflections and work of a contemporary poet, Kathleen Bell, writing on James Watt (1736–1819) and his family, in a ghostly collaboration with the archives. Taken as a whole, the collection offers distinctive new readings of collaboration in theory and practice, reflecting on the many ways in which lives might be written together: across gender boundaries, across time, across genre. This book was originally published as a special issue of Life Writing.
Download or read book The Lost Promise written by Ellen Schrecker and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 632 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lost Promise is a magisterial examination of the turmoil that rocked American universities in the 1960s, with a unique focus on the complex roles played by professors as well as students. The 1950s through the early 1970s are widely seen as American academia’s golden age, when universities—well-funded and viewed as essential for national security, economic growth, and social mobility—embraced an egalitarian mission. Swelling in size, schools attracted new types of students and professors, including radicals who challenged their institutions’ calcified traditions. But that halcyon moment soon came to a painful and confusing end, with consequences that still afflict the halls of ivy. In The Lost Promise, Ellen Schrecker—our foremost historian of both the McCarthy era and the modern American university—delivers a far-reaching examination of how and why it happened. Schrecker illuminates how US universities’ explosive growth intersected with the turmoil of the 1960s, fomenting an unprecedented crisis where dissent over racial inequality and the Vietnam War erupted into direct action. Torn by internal power struggles and demonized by conservative voices, higher education never fully recovered, resulting in decades of underfunding and today’s woefully inequitable system. As Schrecker’s magisterial history makes blazingly clear, the complex blend of troubles that disrupted the university in that pivotal period haunts the ivory tower to this day.
Download or read book The Naked Heart The Bourgeois Experience Victoria to Freud written by Peter Gay and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 1996-10-17 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Naked Heart, Peter Gay explores the bourgeoisie's turn inward. At the very time that industrialists, inventors, statesmen, and natural scientists were conquering new objective worlds, Gay writes, "the secret life of the self had grown into a favorite and wholly serious indoor sport." Following the middle class's preoccupation with inwardness through its varied cultural expressions (such as fiction, art, history, and autobiography), Gay turns also to the letters and confessional diaries of both obscure and prominent men and women. These revealing documents help to round out a sparkling portrait of an age.
