Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arch, witty, outspoken memoirs of the pioneering archaeologist and scholar Mary Beard has called “my hero.” First published by Virginia and Leonard Woolf in 1925, Jane Ellen Harrison’s Reminiscences are the irreverent memoirs of a student who declared Victorian education “ingeniously useless,” who blazed a trail for female scholars, and who changed the way we see the ancient world. Growing up in the Yorkshire countryside, Harrison showed an early aptitude for languages: by the age of seventeen, with the help of a governess, she had learned Greek, Latin, German, and some Hebrew. (“Unfortunately, having no guide, we began with the Psalms, which are hard nuts to crack.”) She went on to become the most influential Classicist of her generation. Drawing on the insights of Nietzsche, Bergson, and Freud, and on archaeological research, she helped to revolutionize the study of Greek myth. “The great Mother,” she wrote, “is prior to male divinities.” Unconventional in her private life (“By what miracle I escaped marriage I do not know, for all my life I fell in love”), she spent her later years with the poet and novelist Hope Mirrlees, thirty-seven years her junior. Harrison’s zest for life is everywhere in these pages. Sprightly, amused, and amusing, her Reminiscences form an unforgettable sketch of a woman ahead of her time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Student Life and Practice After a long and arduous professional career, the late Doctor Worthington was incapacitated during the last three years of his life from exercising the duties of his profession by the illness to which he at length succumbed. To a man of the Doctor's active habits the leisure thus enforced upon him was very wearisome, until it happily occurred to him that he might relieve the tedium of it by the writing of sketches, embracing recollections and incidents of his professional career. Owing to the nature of his illness this relaxation could only be obtained during the more or less rare intervals when he was free from severe suffering. But few as were those intervals they helped to divert his mind and relieve his weariness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: An intimately charged novel of desire and disaster from the National Book Award-winning author of Trust Exercise and A Person of Interest Regina Gottlieb had been warned about Professor Nicholas Brodeur long before arriving as a graduate student at his prestigious university high on a pastoral hill. He’s said to lie in the dark in his office while undergraduate women read couplets to him. He’s condemned on the walls of the women’s restroom, and enjoys films by Roman Polanski. But no one has warned Regina about his exceptional physical beauty—or his charismatic, volatile wife. My Education is the story of Regina’s mistakes, which only begin in the bedroom, and end—if they do—fifteen years in the future and thousands of miles away. By turns erotic and completely catastrophic, Regina’s misadventures demonstrate what can happen when the chasm between desire and duty is too wide to bridge.
