Download or read book The Cultural Work of the Late Nineteenth Century Hostess written by S. Harris and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cultural Work of the Late Nineteenth-Century Hostess explores the influence well-placed, energetic women had on literary and political culture in the U.S. and in England in the years 1870-1920. Fields, an American, was first married to James T. Fields, a prominent Boston publisher; after his death she became companion to Sarah Orne Jewett, one of the foremost New England writers. Gladstone was a daughter of William Gladstone, one of Great Britain's most famous Prime Ministers. Both became well known as hostesses, entertaining the leading figures of their day; both also kept journals and wrote letters in which they recorded those figures' conversations. Susan K. Harris reads these records to exhibit the impact such women had on the cultural life of their times. The Cultural Work of the Late Nineteenth-Century Hostess shows how Fields and Gladstone negotiated alliances, won over key figures to their parties' designs, and fought to develop major cultural institutions ranging from the Organization of Boston Charities to London's Royal College of Music.

Book excerpt: As he stepped into the room, Renae was struck by an overwhelming rush of emotions. Her heart beat so fast she thought it might burst from her chest, and she couldn't help but feel a shiver run down her spine. She had accepted the job at Le Kissr to pay off her debts, but she never expected her first client to be so breathtakingly handsome. This man, with his broad shoulders and piercing eyes, was more than just a client. He was her destiny, the one she had been waiting for. Even his peachy skin seemed to glow in the dim light of the room, and Renae couldn't help but feel a surge of desire that coursed through her body. From the moment they met, Renae found herself unable to sleep, consumed by the thought of this man. And as the weeks went by, she realized that he too felt the same way. He was drawn to her, unable to resist the pull of her beauty and spirit. It was only when Renae's ex-partner appeared, threatening to tear them apart, that this man finally took the leap of faith. He wrapped his strong arms around her, holding her close, and whispered words of love and devotion that left Renae breathless. At that moment, Renae knew that they were meant to be together. Their love was real, and nothing could ever tear them apart. They would face any challenge, conquer any obstacle, and emerge victorious, their love shining as brightly as the sun on a summer's day.
