Book excerpt: Excerpt from May Iverson Tackles Life IN answer to many letters received during the serial publication of this book, I wish to say that the convent of St. Catharine's has no existence in fact. Its great walled garden, and the wide main hall, with countless little music rooms opening off it, are features of the convent from which I graduated many years ago. The river, however, to which reference is so often made, flows through the grounds of a convent in another State, Where I have spent my happiest hours; and the mound and the Shrines are in the grounds of a third great con vent in which my sister was a pupil. Of the girls, Mabel Blossom and May Iverson herself are the only ones drawn from life - as clearly as one can draw Who must look at her models through the mists of more than twenty years. To-day Mabel Blossom's children, their mother writes me, know May Iverson by heart. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Publishing the Family written by June Howard and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2001-10-03 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Publishing the Family June Howard turns a study of the collaborative novel The Whole Family into a lens through which to examine American literature and culture at the beginning of the twentieth century. Striving to do equal justice to historical particulars and the broad horizons of social change, Howard reconsiders such categories of analysis as authorship, genre, and periodization. In the process, she offers a new method for cultural studies and American studies at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Publishing the Family describes the sources and controversial outcome of a fascinating literary experiment. Howard embeds the story of The Whole Family in the story of Harper & Brothers’ powerful and pervasive presence in American cultural life, treating the publisher, in effect, as an author. Each chapter of Publishing the Family casts light on some aspect of life in the United States at a moment that arguably marked the beginning of our own era. Howard revises common views of the turn-of-the-century literary marketplace and discusses the perceived crisis in the family as well as the popular and expert discourses that emerged to remedy it. She also demonstrates how creative women like Bazar editor Elizabeth Jordan blended their own ideas about the “New Woman” with traditional values. Howard places these analyses in the framework of far-reaching historical changes, such as the transformation of the public meaning of emotion and “sentimentality.” Taken together, the chapters in Publishing the Family show how profoundly the modern mapping of social life relies on boundaries between family and business, culture and commerce, which The Whole Family and Publishing the Family constantly unsettle. Publishing the Family will interest students and scholars of American history, literature, and culture, as well as those studying gender, sexuality, and the family.
Download or read book The Case of Lizzie Borden and Other Writings written by Elizabeth Garver Jordan and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2024-06-25 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first and only comprehensive collection of writings by Elizabeth Garver Jordan, the groundbreaking journalist, suffragist, and editor whose fearless reporting on women preceded the #MeToo movement and popularized the true-crime genre A Penguin Classic The Case of Lizzie Borden and Other Writings is the first to collect Garver Jordan’s fiction and journalism, much of which has been out of print for over a century. Jordan began her career as a reporter, making her name as one of few women journalists to cover the Lizzie Borden murder trial for the New York World in 1893. Jordan’s distinctive, narrative-driven coverage of the Borden and other high-profile murder cases brought her national visibility, and she turned increasingly to fiction writing. Drawing on her experiences as a true-crime reporter and newspaper editor, she published detective novels and short story collections such as Tales of the City Room that explored the fine line between women’s criminality and crimes against women. Employing popular genre conventions as a means of dealing with women’s issues, Jordan exposed gendered abuse in the workplace and the prevalence of sexual violence. The Case of Lizzie Borden and Other Writings encourages readers to draw a historical trajectory from Jordan’s pioneering literary activism to the writings of contemporary journalists and novelists whose work continues to fuel discussions of gender, feminism, and crime, raising questions about who gets to tell women’s stories, especially in the wake of the #MeToo movement.
