Download or read book Merry Wives and Others written by Penelope Fritzer and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2010-06-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many ways, the history of domestic humor writing is also a history of domestic life in the twentieth century. For many years, domestic humor was written primarily by females; significant contributions from male writers began as times and family structures changed. It remains timeless because of its basis on the relationships between husbands and wives, parents and children, houses and inhabitants, pets and their owners, chores and their doers, and neighbors. This work is a historical and literary survey of humorists who wrote about home. It begins with a chapter on the social context of and attitudes toward traditional domestic roles and housewives. The following chapters, beginning with the 1920s and continuing through today, cover the different time periods and the foremost American domestic humorists, and the humor written by surrogate parents, grown children about their childhood families, husbands, and Canadian and English writers. Also covered are the differences among various writers toward traditional domestic roles--some, like Erma Bombeck and Judith Viorst, embraced them, while others, like Caryl Kristenson and Marilyn Kentz, resisted them. Common themes, such as the isolation and competitiveness of housework, home as an idealized metaphysical goal and ongoing physical challenge, and the urban, suburban, and rural life, are also explored.

Download or read book Grandfather Knows Best written by Jerry Zezima and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-01-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What guy takes his granddaughter to the aquarium and spouts fish puns all day? Who accompanies her to a children’s recreation center and almost faints in the bouncy house? And which grandpa goes to the White House Easter Egg Roll so he can introduce his precious pumpkin not to the president but to Peppa Pig? Jerry Zezima, who also gives grandfatherly advice to Prince Charles, peddles his granddaughter’s preschool fundraiser, introduces her to the neighborhood ice cream man, and does lots of other fun stuff, both with and without his adorable princess, which may explain why she is more mature than he is. In “Grandfather Knows Best,” nationally syndicated humorist Jerry Zezima writes about the joys of grandparenthood and the things one man will do for the little girl who has captured his heart.
