BIRDSONGS OF LOVE & DESPAIR by Vivek Nath Mishra Pdf

What happens when a primordial city with its stake of myth, folklore and tradition confronts an aggressively expanding modernity? Varanasi is a place where antiquity holds a mirror to modern India to reveal its real essence and longstanding values that refuse to wither with changing time. Birdsongs of Love & Despair includes eleven short stories that delve deep into the ethos that has made Varanasi so unique. And here they speak in the voices of common people coming from different spheres of life–the gardener, the maid, the retired person, the dead grandmother or a toy seller. These are voices belonging to the margin, to the anxious souls, who with their love and tender thoughts, do not know how to resist the invasion of looming loss the modern times have brought in.

Ways of Nature by John Burroughs Pdf

First published in 1905, “Ways of Nature” is a collection of essays by American naturalist John Burroughs. Within them, Burroughs explores the idea of bird intelligence, which he maintains had been generally misjudged by his contemporaries due to a “growing tendency to humanize the lower animals”. A fascinating and masterfully-written treatise, “Ways of Nature” is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Burroughs' seminal work. Contents include: “Ways Of Nature”, “Bird-songs”, “Nature With Closed Doors”, “The Wit Of A Duck”, “Factors In Animal Life”, etc. John Burroughs (1837 – 1921) was an American naturalist, essayist, and active member of the U.S. conservation movement. Burroughs' work was incredibly popular during his lifetime, and his legacy has lived on in the form of twelve U.S. Schools named after him, as well as Burroughs Mountain, and the John Burroughs Association. Contents include: “The Return of the Birds”, “In the Hemlocks”, “The Adirondacks”, “Birds'-Nests”, “Spring at the Capital”, “Birch Browsings”, “The Bluebird”, “The Invitation”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Post-Romantic Aesthetics in Contemporary British and Irish Poetry by Stefanie John Pdf

This book demonstrates the legacies of Romanticism which animate the poetry and poetics of Eavan Boland, Gillian Clarke, John Burnside, and Kathleen Jamie. It argues that the English Romantic tradition serves as a source of inspiration and critical contention for these Irish, Welsh, and Scottish poets, and it relates this engagement to wider concerns with gender, nation, and nature which have shaped contemporary poetry in Britain and Ireland. Covering a substantial number of works from the 1980s to the 2010s, the book discusses how Boland and Clarke, as women poets from the Republic of Ireland and Wales, react to a male-dominated and Anglocentric lyric tradition and thus rework notions of the Romantic. It examines how Burnside and Jamie challenge, adopt, and revise Romantic aesthetics of nature and environment. The book is the first in-depth study to read Boland, Clarke, Burnside, and Jamie as post-Romantics. By disentangling the aesthetic and critical conceptions of Romanticism which inform their inheritance, it develops an innovative approach to the understanding of contemporary poetry and literary influence.

The Prodigal Women: A Novel by Nancy Hale Pdf

Rediscover the sensational 1942 bestseller that unveiled the Jazz Age as women lived it As seen in THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW and VANITY FAIR Set in Boston, New York, and Virginia, The Prodigal Women tells the intertwined stories of three young women who come of age in the Roaring Twenties, not flappers and golden girls but flesh-and-blood female protagonists looking wearily—and warily—at the paths open to women in a rapidly changing world. Leda March, “frantic with self-consciousness and envy and desire,” is the daughter of poorer relations of a prominent Boston family and an aspiring poet torn between an impulse to conformity and the pursuit of personal freedom. Betsy Jekyll, newly arrived with her family from Virginia, becomes Leda’s closest childhood friend, bringing a beguiling new warmth and openness into the New Englander’s life. But Betsy soon abandons Boston to land a job at a fashion magazine and enjoy life as a single woman in New York before falling in love with—and marrying—an abusive, controlling man. Betsy’s older sister, Maizie, a Southern belle idolized by the two younger friends and pursued by numerous men, grows tired of “running around” and fatefully looks for happiness in marriage to a turbulent artist. When The Prodigal Women was published in 1942, its uncompromising portrayal of women’s shifting roles, open sexuality, and ambivalence toward motherhood made it a succèss de scandale, spending twenty-three weeks on the New York Times Best Sellers list. Now Library of America restores Nancy Hale’s lost classic to print with a new introduction by Kate Bolick exploring how the novel measures “the gap between what liberation looks like, and what it actually is.”
