Book excerpt: Her publishers have felt the pressure of this growing interest and it was at their request that she furnished the data for a biographical sketch that was to be written of her.

This will account for the very intimate picture of family life in the Middle West for some years following the Civil War.

Download or read book Gene Stratton Porter Freckles written by Gene Stratton-Porter and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2010-06-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like all of Gene Stratton-Porter's books, Freckles is beautifully written. One of the tests of good literature is whether it makes us think about important issues while enjoying the elements of the text, and Gene Stratton-Porter accomplishes just that in Freckles. Like "A Girl of Limberlost," Freckles is a product of Stratton-Porter's own life and the times in which she lived. There were class differences in the early 1900's, and it was challenging for 'low-born' people to believe they could rise above that. They didn't have our modern-day notion of arrogance and independence. This is why Freckles has historical value in addition to its literary content and unique storylines. Freckles is a great role model for boys and girls alike, and is so humble! He will not let the "Swamp Angel" marry him, because he has only one hand, is an orphan, and has no knowledge of "honorable birth" which he thinks is very important. While it is true that the rich characters in Freckles looked down on others and that humble folk always respected the rich people, those were the attitudes and behavior of people in the times in which the book was written. In regards to Freckles always believing bad about himself, he did so because he had no way of knowing who he really was, so he assumed the worst--many people do that. This attitude is called "determinism," which is basically the belief that people cannot rise above their background, heritage, circumstances, or physical conditions--that they are helpless to change their circumstances and lot in life. Determinism was a major concern in the works of many authors of Gene Stratton Porter's time period, who were seeking to challenge the set social classes and attitudes and forge new identities.

Her novel A Girl of the Limberlost was adapted four times as a film, most recently in 1990 in a made-for-TV She was born Geneva Grace Stratton in Wabash County, Indiana near Lagro. She was the twelfth and last child born to Mary and Mark Stratton.[2] Early on, her family shortened her name to Geneve and she later shortened it further to Gene. Stratton-Porter's novel Laddie corresponds in many particulars with her early life, and Gene herself described this as the most auto-biographical novel. For example, the narrative takes place in the first person, with the story being related by the twelfth child of the "Stanton" family. The name of the beloved older brother (title character) "Laddie" is identical with Stratton-Porter's own treasured brother who died in an accident when she was young. As in Stratton-Porter's own family, the novelized Laddie is connected with the land and identifies with their father's vocation.[3] Despite not finishing high school, Gene became an avid reader and lifelong scholar of ecology and wildlife.

Mrs. Porter pictures and describes the moth, hunted by Elnora, and in these chapters there is one oi the landscapes over which she hunted, much of the swamp, and the very bridge under which she was working to cut loose a cocoon when Philip came up the stream, fishing.

The text is just scientific enough to give the name and description of each moth, cocoon and caterpillar; the remainder is a fascinating record of personal experiences in finding or raising the specimens. This is the fully illustrated edition.
