Download or read book Willa Cather in Europe written by Willa Cather and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1988-01-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Willa Cather was twenty-eight years old in the summer of 1902 when she saw England and France for the first time. Behind her stretched the Nebraska fields of her childhood and still ahead of her the world as it belongs only to great writers. The 1902 journey, coming ten years before she made her literary mark with O Pioneers!, was unrepeatable, special in its effects on her artistic development. After disembarking at Liverpool, she toured the Shropshire country, got swallowed up by London, and then crossed the Channel to other skies—to Rouen, Paris, and the Riviera. These fourteen travel articles, written for a newspaper in Lincoln, Nebraska, and eventually collected and published in book form in 1956, are striking for first impressions colored by a future novelist's feeling for history and for beauty in unexpected forms.

Book excerpt: "Nobody disputes that the great experiment in Chinese-style socialism will eventually effect the world at large. In the closing years of the 20th century, we are witnessing the reawakening of a colossus that has long dominated Asia geographically and culturally, but is also likely to do so economically and politically in the next century. Geoffrey Murray closely examines China's credentials as a burgeoning superpower, the economic, social and structural dilemmas this poses, as well as the broader ongoing geopolitical implications should the experiment succeed."--Publisher description.

Book excerpt: “Not often are we given an opportunity to observe a great American writer arrive for the first time in the Old World from the New, there to record first impressions spontaneously, as they came, subject to no second thoughts, no later, leveling revision,” George N. Kates writes in his Introduction to Willa Cather in Europe. “The fourteen travel articles that form the present volume, written by Willa Cather on a first journey to England and France, give as just such a record . . . 1902 was the Edwardian year when Willa Cather, with her friend Isabelle McClung, proceeded on this journey. We can follow them as they go, from Liverpool to Chester and Shrewsbury, to Ludlow and the quiet Shropshire country; onward into the dim vastness of London . . . then further across the Channel to the other skies, to Rouen, Paris, and the Midi.” Mr. Kates has supplied an interpretive Introduction and “Incidental Notes.”
