    Introduction and further reading -- Timeline -- Entries The Wiley-Blackwell Encyclopedia of Eighteenth-Century Writers and Writing 1660-1789 features coverage of the lives and works of almost 500 notable writers based in the British Isles from the return of the British monarchy in 1660 until the French Revolution of 1789.: Broad coverage of writers and texts presents a new picture of 18th-century British authorship; Takes advantage of newly expanded eighteenth-century canon to include significantly more women writers and labouring-class writers than have traditionally been studied; Draws on the latest scholarship to more accurately reflect the lite

    Préface, par Thierry Fabre --Avant-propos --Prologue --Jour de rentrée --Lumières de l'enfance --Que c'est long, messieurs! --Marseille, La Belle Époque --"Un tout petit pogrom" --Histoires de famille... --L'envol --Frères d'encre --Âmes tendres --Vivre, écrire --"Le génie du lieu" --Bibliographie --Remerciements. "1906. Marseille est dans son âge d'or : premier port de France, le pont transbordeur - sa Tour Eiffel - entre les deux quais. Albert Cohen et Marcel Pagnol, nés tous deux en 1895, l'un à Aubagne, l'autre à Corfou, et arrivés à Marseille au début du siècle, se rencontrent au Grand lycée, devenu le lycée Thiers. Leur amitié surgit là, tout de suite, une évidence : Marcel de mon enfance, aussitôt aimé, le premier jour de mon entrée en sixième d'abord appelé Pagnol et puis, quelques semaines plus tard, appelé Marcel, à jamais mon frère et ami", écrit Cohen. Elle durera toute leur vie. Entrant dans l'âge adulte, ils quittent Marseille, l'auteur de Belle du Seigneur pour Genève, celui de Marius pour Paris. Ils se reverront très peu. Loin des yeux mais près, très près, du coeur. Si différents, si proches. Une amitié solaire ? Oui. Parce que dénuée de rivalité, dans la spontanéité, à jamais du côté de l'enfance. Solaire aussi bien sûr parce que ce sont deux hommes de la Méditerranée. Qui aiment passionnément la vie, mais qui font passer leur écriture germée au soleil avant tout. Leur vie, leur oeuvre, au prisme de cette amitié née dans la lumière, c'est ce que ce livre vous propose de découvrir ou de redécouvrir. Vous pensiez les connaître, vous serez surpris."--Page 4 of cover

    "In the spring of 1944, Hemingway traveled to London and then to France to cover World War II for Colliers Magazine. Obviously he was a little late in arriving. Why did he go? He had resisted this kind of journalism for much of the early period of the war, but when he finally decided to go, he threw himself into the thick of events and so became a conduit to understanding some of the major events and characters of the war. He flew missions with the RAF (in part to gather material for a novel); he went on a landing craft on Omaha Beach on D-Day; he went on to involve himself in the French Resistance forces in France and famously rode into the still dangerous streets of liberated Paris. And he was at the German Siegfried line for the horrendous killing ground of the Hürtgen Forest, in which his favored 22nd Regiment lost nearly every man they sent into the fight. After that tragedy, it came to be argued, he was never the same. This invigorating narrative is also, in a parallel fashion, an investigation into Hemingway's subsequent work--much of it stemming from his wartime experience--which shaped the latter stages of his career in dramatic fashion."--Dust jacket

    Michel Houellebecq is perhaps the single most successful and controversial of all contemporary novelists writing in French. Houellebecq has become a global publishing phenomenon: his books have been translated worldwide, three film adaptations of his work have been produced, and the author has been the subject of million-euro publishing deals and of successive media scandals in France. His novels narrate a metaphysical mutation or paradigm shift through which humanity as we know it ceases to be the over-riding value or focus of our world when it comes into conflict with a competitor in the form of a post-human or neo-human species. It is the aim of this book to appraise the global significance of Houellebecq's novelistic visions while at the same time situating them within the context of French literature, culture and society

    "It is strange," Proust wrote in 1909, "that, in the most widely different departments ... there should be no other literature which exercises over me so powerful an influence as English and American." In the spirit of Proust's admission, this engaging and critical volume offers the first comparative reading of the French novelist in the context of American art, literature, and culture. In addition to examining Proust's key American influences--Ralph Waldo Emerson, Edgar Allen Poe, and James McNeill Whistler--Proust and America investigates the previously overlooked influence of the American neurologist George Beard, whose writings on neurasthenia and "American nervousness" contributed to the essential modernity of the author's work

    "Ralph Waldo Emerson has traditionally been cast as a dreamer and a mystic, concerned with the ideals of transcendentalism rather than the realities of contemporary science and technology. In Laura Dassow Walls's view Emerson was a leader of the secular avant-garde in his day. He helped to establish science as the popular norm of truth in the United States and to modernize American popular thought. In addition, he became a hero to a post-Darwinian generation of Victorian Dissenters, exemplifying the strong connection between transcendentalism and later nineteenth-century science The Sphinx at the crossroads -- Converting the world: knowledge, science, power -- Gnomic science: the body and the law -- Global polarity and the single life -- Truth against the world -- The solar eye of science

    From a Dublin childhood to London, then on to Europe, to Asia and Australia, there is a deep engagement with the world in this book about growing up, about human and animal connectedness, about friendship, love and loss. Power understands the uncanniness and endurance of memory. He can make us laugh, and then stop us in our tracks at the profundity of this business of meeting life. Each of these short chapters is beautifully complete; together the whole thing shimmers. In the most delightful and subtle of ways, the language, trajectory and wisdom of Tell it to the Dog underscores our need to embrace our own vulnerabilities, to confront our experiences and memories, and to believe as Jane Austen once wrote, that 'when pain is over, the remembrance of it often becomes a pleasure'

    Focusing on the first 20 years of Katherine Mansfield's life, from her birth in 1888 to her final departure from New Zealand in 1908, this biography reveals the importance of Mansfield's childhood and teenage years to her development as a writer and offers unique insights into her New Zealand stories. Gerri Kimber draws on detailed reminiscences of Mansfield's former school friends and acquaintances, early letters, Mansfield's autograph book, notebooks and family papers as well as on previously unused archive material and photographs. Kimber illuminates Mansfield's home life and school days, her friendships, first infatuations and sexual experimentation both with young men and young women and reveals the effect Mansfield's experiences had on her earliest stories. What emerges is a fascinating picture of a feisty and imaginative young girl who would turn into an expressive, non-conformist adolescent: the unruly Kass Beauchamp who would become Katherine Mansfield, the celebrated modernist writer Ancestors -- Harold and Annie Beauchamp -- 11 Tinakori Road : 1888-1893 -- Chesney Wold, Karori : 1893-1898 -- Back to Thorndon : 75 Tinakori Road, 1898-1903 -- Queen's College, London : 1903-1906 -- Thorndon : 1906-1908

    "Philip Garrison writes about two waves of the immigrant poor that have settled on the Columbia Plateau and throughout the American West. One, beginning in the 1930s and caricatured as Okies, encompassed hundreds of thousands of families from Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas and continued until about 1970. The second wave, since 1990, has come primarily from the Mexican Central Plateau, in even greater numbers.
