简介:"Most people think of fairy tales as having been created anonymously and almost magically long ago, and later discovered and recorded by scholars such as the Brothers Grimm. In fact original fairy tales are still being written. Over the last century and a half many well-known authors have used the characters and settings and themes of traditional tales such as 鈥機inderella鈥? 鈥橦ansel and Gretel鈥? and 鈥橞eauty and the Beast鈥?to produce new and characteristic works of wonder and enchantment. The Oxford Book of Modern Fairy Tales brings together forty of the best of these stories by British and American writers from John Ruskin and Nathaniel Hawthorne to I. B. Singer and Angela Carter." "These tales are full of princes and princesses, witches and dragons and talking animals, magic objects, evil spells, and unexpected endings. Some of their authors, like John Ruskin and Oscar Wilde, use the form to point a social or spiritual moral; others such as Jeanne Desy and Richard Kennedy, turn the traditional stories inside out to extraordinary effect. James Thurber, Bernard Malamud, and Donald Barthelme, among many others, bring the characters and plots of the traditional fairy tale into the contemporary world to make satiric comments on modern life." "The literary skill, wit, and sophistication of these stories appeal to an adult audience, even though some of them were originally written for children. They include light-hearted comic fairy stories like Charles Dickens鈥檚 鈥橳he Magic Fishbone鈥?and L. F. Baum鈥檚 鈥橳he Queen of Quok鈥? thoughtful and often moving tales like Lord Dunsany鈥檚 鈥橳he Kith of the Elf Folk鈥?and Philip K. Dick鈥檚 鈥橳he King of the Elves鈥? and profoundly disturbing ones like Lucy Lane Clifford鈥檚 鈥橳he New Mother鈥? and Ursula Le Guin鈥檚 鈥橳he Wife鈥檚 Story鈥? Together they prove that the fairy tale is not only one of the most popular and enduring forms, but a significant and continually developing part of literature."--BOOK JACKET.
简介:Cranny-Francis shows how feminist authors have used fictional genres to explore new possibilities about society and about the roles and conceptions of women. Freed from the restrictions imposed by conventions of realism some fictional genres enable the imagination to range widely, but at the same time these genres are often linked to conservativ... more 籩 assumptions and beliefs. Cranny-Francis analyses these and other issues through a discussion of the work of Ursula Le Guin, Angela Carter, Tanith Lee, Joanna Russ, Amanda Cross and many others. This wide-ranging and original work will be of particular interest to students and academics in media and cultural studies, women's studies and literature and literary theory. It will also be of interest to anyone who reads modern popular fiction. ?less
简介:This is a completely fresh and poetic version of the twenty-five-hundred-year-old Chinese spiritual classic, by one of America's most thought-provoking writers. Moved by a lifelong love for the Tao Te Ching, the novelist and poet Ursula K. Le Guin has been working on this version of the text since the 1950s. Scholar J. P. Seaton has added expert linguistic guidance to her work, bringing to it an equally passionate commitment to scholarly accuracy. Together they have created a translation that is unlike any seen before. Le Guin's version captures all the brilliance of Lao Tzu's poetry while conveying with immediacy and clarity the astonishing depth of his spiritual insights. It also corrects many of the distorted views of Lao Tzu's philosophy, freeing it from gender-bias and revealing its universal relevance. This new version is sure to be welcomed by the many readers of the Tao Te Ching, as well as those coming to the text for the first time.
简介: Miniskirts, jeans, flares, pantsuits and Asian clothing--the fashion revolution of the 1960s has not yet ceased to reverberate, returning year after year to reinvent the discoveries of that decade. It was in the 1960s that London took over Paris' long-held crown as the trend-setting capital, as Britain's teen culture exploded amid the birth of rock music and the sexual revolution, with pantsuits, denim, various types of Asian garb and the scandalous mini-skirt becoming accordingly ubiquitous. This decade also saw a boom in European tourism, as Germans gravitated en masse to Italy for the first time and beach and bathing wear became more revealing and casual than ever before. All of these seismic shifts in the (literal) fabric of everyday life were of course amplified by an increasingly powerful global media network, leading to an attendant explosion in the practice and popularity of fashion photography and illustration, and to the phenomenon of the "it girl" and the supermodel. This book traces the couture revolution of the 1960s across 12 thematic sections, building its portrait of the decade through the fashion photography of the era's virtuosos--among them Guy Bourdin, Hubs Floter, F.C. Gundlach, Ursula Knipping, Helmut Newton, Rico Puhlmann, Regi Relang and Jeanloup Sieff--and fashion illustrations by the likes of Antonio, Rene Gruau, Lilo Kittel, Trude Rein and Walter E. Voigt.
Things my girlfriend and I have argued about : a novel /
作者: Mil Millington.
简介:Pel Dalton's life is uneventful. He spends his days bluffing through an IT job in the university library, pillow-fighting with his two sons and finding new things to argue about with Ursula, his German girlfriend. But all this is about to change. When his boss suddenly disappears, and Pel steps reluctantly into his shoes, his life begins to spiral out of control. Stolen money, missing colleagues, ominous calls from Hong Kong, and something nasty beneath the university foundations are only the beginning of Pel's problems. Faced with embarrassing PTA meetings and a fridge that really needs defrosting, Pel is about to learn that sometimes the things that drive you crazy can be the only things that keep you sane.

简介:The good in nature and humanity brings together 20 leading thinkers and writers - including Ursula Goodenough, Lynn Margulis, Dorion Sagan, Carl Safina, David Petersen, Wendell Berry, Terry Tempest Williams, and Barry Lopez - to examine the divide between faith and reason, and to seek a means for developing an environmental ethic that will help us confront two of our most imperiling crises: global environmental destruction and an impoverished spirituality. The book explores the ways in which science, spirit, and religion can guide the experience and understanding of our ongoing relationship with the natural world and examines how the integration of science and spirituality can equip us to make wiser choices in using and managing the natural environment. The book also provides compelling stories that offer a narrative understanding of the relations among science, spirit, and nature. Grounded in the premise that neither science nor religion can by itself resolve the prevailing malaise of environmental and moral decline, contributors seek viable approaches to averting environmental catastrophe and, to achieving a more harmonious relationship with the natural world.
简介:Summary: Publisher Summary 1 This interesting work on physics and science fiction writing explores popular theories of time travel from literature from H.G. Wells' Time Machine era to the present. Nahin (emeritus, engineering, U. of New Hampshire) presents a discussion of topics such as special relativity and time travel to the future, hyperspace, general relativity and time travel to the past, paradoxes in time travel, "real" theories of time travel in modern physics, faster-than-light travel and quantum gravity and splitting universes. While this work involves some complex scientific discussion it will appeal to science fiction fans and writers alike. This is a reprint of a book first published in 1997. Annotation 漏2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Publisher Summary 2 From H.G. Wells to Isaac Asimov to Ursula K. Le Guin, time travel has long been a favorite topic and plot device in tales of science fiction and fantasy. But as any true SF fan knows, astounding stories about traversing alternate universes and swimming the tides of time demand plausible science. That's just what Paul J. Nahin's guide provides.An engineer, physicist, and published science fiction writer, Nahin is uniquely qualified to explain the ins and outs of how to spin such complex theories as worm holes, singularity, and relativity into scientifically sound fiction. First published in 1997, this fast-paced book discusses the common and not-so-common time-travel devices science fiction writers have used over the years, assesses which would theoretically work and which would not, and provides scientific insight inventive authors can use to find their own way forward or backward in time. From hyperspace and faster-than-light travel to causal loops and the uncertainty principle and beyond, Nahin's equation-free romp across time will help writers send their characters to the past or future in an entertaining, logical, and scientific way.If you ever wanted to set up the latest and greatest grandfather paradox鈥攐r just wanted to know if the time-bending events in the latest pulp you read could ever happen鈥攖hen this book is for you.

简介:Justin Stokes, a successful actress in her 40s, looks back to the summer she turned 14. It was a summer that taught her the lessons of life, love, friendship and betrayal that haunt her. It was the year she came with her brother and widowed mother to live with her aunt in rural New York. Her lonely and friendless world takes on bright hues when she meets 44-year-old Ursula DeVane, a descendant of the local Hudson Valley aristocracy sharing her mansion with her reclusive pianist brother. She dazzles Justin with her worldliness and her attention. Godwin presents a finely nuanced, compassionate portrait of an adolescent and an accurate examination of the affinity between adolescence and middle age. ISBN 0-670-31494-3:
简介:From one of our most passionately engaged global literary citizens comes Writing with Intent, the largest collection ever assembled of Margaret Atwood's nonfiction, spanning 1983-2005. The fifty-eight essays compiled here are written in a bracing voice that is provocative, witty, often colloquial, and always accessible. Comprised of autobiographical essays, cultural commentary, book and film reviews, eulogies, introductions written for great works of literature, and literary excursions that explore the writing of several of her own novels, this is Atwood's first essay collection in more than two decades, showing that whether writing fiction or nonfiction, she is one of the most probing thinkers in the world of letters today. Compiled here are the Booker Prize-winning author's reviews of books by John Updike, Italo Calvino, Toni Morrison, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Elmore Leonard, Angela Carter, Beryl Bainbridge, Dashiell Hammett, Ursula K. Le Guin, and Alice McDermott, as well as essays in which she recalls reading Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse at age nineteen, and a piece that examines the influence of George Orwell's work on The Handmaid's Tale. Here is Atwood's New York Times Book Review piece that helped make Orhan Pamuk's Snow a bestseller in 2004, a look back at a family trip to Afghanistan just before the Soviet invasion, and her "Letter to America," written after September 11, 2001. The insightful and memorable selections in Writing with Intent remind readers again why Margaret Atwood is one of the most admired writers of our time, and serve as a testament to her vigorous engagement in the world of letters and ideas.
简介: 'Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Colonel Aureliano Buendia was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover ice.' Pipes and kettledrums herald the arrival of gypsies on their annual visit to Macondo, the newly founded village where Jose Arcadio Buendia and his strong-willed wife, Ursula, have started their new life. As the mysterious Melquiades excites Aureliano Buendia's father with new inventions and tales of adventure, neither can know the significance of the indecipherable manuscript that the old gypsy passes into their hands. Through plagues of insomnia, civil war, hauntings and vendettas, the many tribulations of the Buendia household push memories of the manuscript aside. Few remember its existence and only one will discover the hidden message that it holds...This new edition of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's most celebrated novel is published to coincide with celebrations to mark the 80th birthday of this Nobel Prize winning author in 2007.
