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 John Wycliffe written by Sergeant, Lewis and published by Delmarva Publications, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a reprint of the original work by Lewis Sergeant. We have re-typeset the text in a more modern and easy to read font. We have also updated the book with new photos of many of the old illustrations and added many new ones as well. Apart from updating the spelling and/or the modernizing of a few archaic words as well as the conversion of Roman numerals to Arabic numbers, (modern numbers), the original work was left intact. However, in the present work there have been quite a few notes added by Rev. Peter J. Carter. Where these notes appear, they are enclosed with breaks, like so, [Notes], to indicate which are from the original work and which are the addition to the present work. Original notes from the author are not enclosed in breaks. THE plan on which this volume has been written, and (I trust) the excuse for adding one more to the considerable number of recent works on Wyclif, are perhaps sufficiently indicated in the first few chapters, and particularly in the fourth. It might not have been worthwhile to rewrite the story of this English worthy of the fourteenth century, even with the encouragement of a few fresh facts and sidelights to develop and illustrate his character, if it had not been for the opportunity thus afforded of doing something to popularize the picture of John Wyclif as an Oxford Schoolman, and the picture of the Schoolmen in general as pioneers of the Reformation of Religion and the Revival of Learning. In a volume not specially intended for laborious students, it would scarcely have been appropriate to enter on a detailed examination of Wyclif's scholastic and controversial writings. Such a work remains to be accomplished, but it cannot well be undertaken until the Wyclif Society has completed its task. For a similar reason I have not introduced a full bibliography of books and other documents relating to Wyclif. Most of my authorities will be found cited in the text and notes; but I would here express my special obligation to the editors of various volumes in the Rolls Series, to the writers of various articles in the Dictionary of National Biography— which has become indispensable to every historical student,—to Mr. R. L. Poole, and Mr. F. D. Matthew. Of the reputed portraits of Wyclif mentioned in the first chapter, six are reproduced in the present volume. Three of the most characteristic of these— the Bale, Hondius, and Houston engravings—do not seem to have been printed since the centuries in which they were respectively produced. At any rate, the six are now brought together for the first time, and the reader must be left to determine for himself which of the series is most likely to represent John Wyclif as he lived.

  • Pages : 496 pages

Download or read book Slaves in the Family written by Edward Ball and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years after its hardcover debut, the FSG Classics reissue of the celebrated work of narrative nonfiction that won the National Book Award and changed the American conversation about race, with a new preface by the author The Ball family hails from South Carolina—Charleston and thereabouts. Their plantations were among the oldest and longest-standing plantations in the South. Between 1698 and 1865, close to four thousand black people were born into slavery under the Balls or were bought by them. In Slaves in the Family, Edward Ball recounts his efforts to track down and meet the descendants of his family's slaves. Part historical narrative, part oral history, part personal story of investigation and catharsis, Slaves in the Family is, in the words of Pat Conroy, "a work of breathtaking generosity and courage, a magnificent study of the complexity and strangeness and beauty of the word ‘family.'"
