Abstract

This book reprints contemporaneous reviews of Ellen Glasgow's books as they were published between 1897 and 1943. Book reviews, originally printed in newspapers and other periodicals in the USA and in England, tell the story of Glasgow's critical reception during her long and productive career. Nineteen novels as well as a volume of poetry, one of her short stories, and one of criticism, were published during her lifetime. Her first book, published anonymously in 1897, elicited much attention when it was revealed that the author was a young Richmond woman. By the time of the 1943 publication of her volume of literary criticism, A Certain Measure, she was a much-respected and much-honoured author, winner of a Pulitzer Prize and other awards.

Abstract

This book explores historical and cultural aspects of modern and contemporary Bengal through the performance-centred study of a particular repertoire: the songs of the saint-composer Bhaba Pagla (1902-1984), who is particularly revered among Baul and Fakir singers. The author shows how songs, if examined as 'sacred scriptures', represent multi-dimensional texts for the study of South Asian religions. Revealing how previous studies about Bauls mirror the history of folkloristics in Bengal, this book presents sacred songs as a precious symbolic capital for a marginalized community of dislocated and unorthodox Hindus, who consider the practice of singing in itself an integral part of the path towards self-realization.

Abstract

Ashley Lear's The Remarkable Kinship of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings and Ellen Glasgow examines the documents collected by Rawlings on Glasgow, along with her personal notes, to better understand the experiences that brought these two women writers together and the importance of literary friendships between women writers. This study sheds new light on the complexities of their professional success and personal struggles, both of which led them to find friendship and sympathy with one another.

Abstract

Papst Franziskus hat in seiner Ansprache an die Minderbrüder vom Montag, dem 17. Juni 2019, in einem Absatz zusammengeft, was ich in diesem kleinen Buch darstellen möchte. Eine entsprechende Ausbildung ist notwendig. Ein prägender Weg, der bei den Brüdern eine immer vollständigere Übereinstimmung mit Christus begünstigt; eine integrale Formation, die alle Dimensionen der Person umft; eine personalisierte und fortlaufende Ausbildung, da es sich um eine lebenslange Reiseroute handelt; eine Herzensbildung, die unser Denken, Fühlen und Handeln verändert; eine Ausbildung in Treue, die sich bewusst ist, d wir heute in einer vergänglichen Kultur leben, d für immer‹ sehr schwierig ist und definitive Entscheidungen nicht in Mode sind. In diesem Zusammenhang braucht es solide Ausbilder, Experten im Zuhören und auf dem Weg zu Gott, die andere auf diesem Weg begleiten können {vgl. Johannes Paul II., Apostolisches Schreiben Vita consecrate, 65–66}; Ausbilder, die in Unterscheidung und Begleitung geübt sind. Nur so können wir die Blutung der Verlenheit, die das priesterliche und geweihte Leben befällt, zumindest teilweise eindämmen. Ich sehe diese kontinuierliche Entwicklung und weitere Bereitstellung eines Programms für Ausbilder und Leiter als den Weg nach vorne für die Kirche. Es ist vor allem ein Weg zur Erneuerung in der Kirche. Es beginnt mit der persönlichen Erneuerung von Leitern und Ausbildern, die an ihre Anvertrauten weitergegeben wird.

Abstract

A continuation of Josephine Donovan's exploration of American women's literary traditions, begun with New England Local Color Literature: A Women's Tradition, which treats the nineteenth-century realists, this work analyzes the writing of major women writers of the early twentieth century—Edith Wharton, Willa Cather, and Ellen Glasgow.The author sees the Demeter-Persephone myth as central to these writers' thematics, but interprets the myth in terms of the historical transitions taking place in turn-of-the-century America. Donovan focuses on the changing relationship between mothers and daughters—in particular upon the ";new women's"; rebellion against the traditional women's culture of their nineteenth-century mothers (both literary and literal). An introductory chapter traces the male-supremacist ideologies that formed the intellectual climate in which these women wrote.Reorienting Wharton, Cather, and Glasgow within women's literary traditions produces major reinterpretations of their works, including such masterpieces as Ethan Frome, Summer, My Antonia, Barren Ground, and others.
