  • ISBN : 9781537761664

Download or read book The Lady of Shalott written by Alfred Lord Tennyson and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-19 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lady of Shalott Alfred Tennyson A Victorian Ballad "The Lady of Shalott" is a Victorian ballad by the English poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892). Like his other early poems - "Sir Lancelot and Queen Guinevere" and "Galahad" - the poem recasts Arthurian subject matter loosely based on medieval sources. Tennyson wrote two versions of the poem, one published in 1833, of twenty stanzas, the other in 1842 of nineteen stanzas. The poem was loosely based on the Arthurian legend of Elaine of Astolat, as recounted in a thirteenth-century Italian novella titled Donna di Scalotta (No. LXXXII in the collection Cento Novelle Antiche), with the earlier version being closer to the source material than the later. Tennyson focused on the Lady's "isolation in the tower and her decision to participate in the living world, two subjects not even mentioned in Donna di Scalotta." Feminist critics see the poem as concerned with issues of women's sexuality and their place in the Victorian world. Critics argue that "The Lady of Shalott" centers around the temptation of sexuality and her innocence preserved by death. Christine Poulson discusses a feminist viewpoint and suggests: "the Lady of Shalott's escape from her tower as an act of defiance, a symbol of female empowerment...." Based on Poulson's view, escaping from the tower allows for the Lady of Shalott to emotionally break free and come into terms with female sexuality. The depiction of death has also been interpreted as sleep. Critic Christine Poulson says that sleep has a connotation of physical abandonment and vulnerability, which can either suggest sexual fulfillment or be a metaphor for virginity. Fairytales, such as Sleeping Beauty or Snow White, have traditionally depended upon this association. So, as related to the Lady of Shalott, Poulson says: "for in death [she] has become a Sleeping Beauty who can never be wakened, symbols of perfect feminine passivity."

Book Shalott  Into the Unknown

Download or read book Shalott Into the Unknown written by Felicity Pulman and published by Shalott Trilogy. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Five teenagers set out into the unknown to change the legend of Camelot. Instead they find they are rewriting their own lives and destiny. Callie's quest was simple: to change the fate of the Lady of Shalott on a computer program and save her along with King Arthur and the knights of the Round Table. But when the five teenagers find themselves in Camelot, they become caught up in the illicit love affair between Lancelot and Guinevere, the intrigues of the court, and the ambition of the magical Morgan le Fay. Do they have enough courage to survive the dangers they face? And how can they find their way home when everything they have ever known and believed is challenged? What Callie finds in Camelot will break her heart, while her quest will change all of their lives forever. 'In this extraordinary trilogy Felicity Pulman shows both her understanding of the Arthurian legend, of the Shalott story, and a rich and imaginative capacity to expand and explore its deep meanings for today's teenagers. This is an unsettling, unusual, intriguing and moving series, rich in character, action and mystery, full of the atmosphere of Arthurian legend, yet without falling into the trap of mere retelling.' - Sophie Masson

Download or read book Tirra Lirra by the River written by Jessica Anderson and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Australia’s most celebrated novels: one woman’s journey from Australia to London Nora Porteous, a witty, ambitious woman from Brisbane, returns to her childhood home at age seventy. Her life has taken her from a failed marriage in Sydney to freedom in London; she forged a modest career as a seamstress and lived with two dear friends through the happiest years of her adult life. At home, the neighborhood children she remembers have grown into compassionate adults. They help to nurse her back from pneumonia, and slowly let her in on the dark secrets of the neighborhood in the years that have lapsed. With grace and humor, Nora recounts her desire to escape, the way her marriage went wrong, the vanity that drove her to get a facelift, and one romantic sea voyage that has kept her afloat during her dark years. Her memory is imperfect, but the strength and resilience she shows over the years is nothing short of extraordinary. A book about the sweetness of escape, and the mix of pain and acceptance that comes with returning home.
