Download or read book Phantom Fathers written by Mary VanderGoot and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Another story about Maggie Barnes and her family. By digging into online genealogy records and talking with their chatty Aunt Lillian, Maggie's children discover the World War II struggles of their paternal grandparents and their silent father, Ross. It's not a story to make kids proud. They find it easier to be critical of their flawed family and assume the next generation will do better. Like an autopsy, Phantom Fathers exposes the problems of this thinking. Soon enough these critical children will be the parents of their own adult children, and they will have their day in court. As Maggie's children discover the trauma that tore through their father's life and the way their grandparents dealt with it--brutal events during World War II, desperate decisions that fractured the family, and a dishonorable emigration to the United States--they wonder if they could have done better under the circumstances. Ross's silence begins to make sense. Most surprising are events that stir the sympathy of disappointed children and open the way to admitting the truth about imperfect ancestors.

Download or read book Phantom Formations written by Marc Redfield and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-15 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marc Redfield maintains that the literary genre of the Bildungsroman brings into sharp focus the contradictions of aesthetics, and also that aesthetics exemplifies what is called ideology. He combines a wide-ranging account of the history and theory of aesthetics with close readings of novels by Goethe, George Eliot, and Gustave Flaubert. For Redfield, these fictions of character formation demonstrate the paradoxical relation between aesthetics and literature: the notion of the Bildungsroman may be expanded to apply to any text that can be figured as a subject producing itself in history, which is to say any text whatsoever. At the same time, the category may be contracted to include only a handful of novels, (or even none at all), a paradox that has led critics to denigrate the Bildungsroman as a phantom genre.

Download or read book Fathers on Film written by Katie Barnett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-06 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The father is an enduring and iconic figure in Hollywood cinema and in the 1990s, narratives of redemptive fatherhood featured prominently in some of the decade's most popular films like Kindergarten Cop (1990), Mrs Doubtfire (1993), Jurassic Park (1993) and The Lion King (1994). Interpreting such films through the lens of feminist and queer theory, along with masculinity studies and psychoanalysis, Katie Barnett offers an insightful and interdisciplinary discussion of cinematic fathers. Barnett reveals that the father figure is often portrayed as one that invests in and is part of a discourse of reproductive futurism. This plays out across a range of genres including rom-coms, fantasy, sci-fi, drama, and disaster. By exploring both blockbuster and more low-budget films of the 1990s, Barnett explores the figure of the father against the crisis of masculinity in the United States, and indeed more globally, at this time.

Book excerpt: In the year of perfect vision, “the year 2020” Sausha Charlotte Chattmen, a twelve-year-old Irish girl, finding herself part of a slightly eccentric family, is determined to turn this senseless and erotic society around. Somewhat isolated from her mother and older sister, but very close to her father, she has created a family of her own; Niki, her long time best friend, who is closer than kin, and Jim and Lee who display unequalled loyalty toward her. They all are ready to lay their lives on the line for Charlotte and her cause. Charlotte and her little gang live secret lives and are involved in many activities. These activities have placed her and her long time best friend, Niki, in some dangerous and somewhat criminal dilemmas. They eventually find themselves surrounded and supported by a secret organization. Being very intelligent, Charlotte is in many professions unknown to friends and family, except for her father and the little gang that assists her. She becomes very irritated if considered a genius or anything other than an ordinary twelve-year-old girl. Eventually, Charlotte reveals one of her major secret activity to her lawyer and vaguely confirms the secret to two of her best friends who have already figured it out.
