Sinopse

The "Collected Works of Charlotte Perkins Gilman: Short Stories, Novels, Poems and Essays" is a comprehensive anthology that encapsulates the rich and diverse literary contributions of one of the early feminist voices in American literature. This collection showcases Gilman's mastery in various genres, from her iconic short stories such as "The Yellow Wallpaper," which vividly illustrates the struggles against oppressive societal norms, to her thought-provoking essays advocating for women's rights and social reform. Gilman's literary style is characterized by its incisive clarity, psychological depth, and a keen socio-political awareness, making her work not only innovative but also foundational in exploring the intersection of gender and mental health during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Charlotte Perkins Gilman was a prominent feminist, sociologist, and author whose life experiences profoundly influenced her writing. Born in 1860, she faced the limitations of her era's gender roles and became a vocal advocate for women's economic independence and educational opportunities. Her own struggles with postpartum depression and confinement heavily informed her most famous work, reflecting her desire to challenge societal norms and offer alternative perspectives on women's identity and autonomy. This comprehensive volume is essential for scholars, students, and general readers alike, offering deep insight into the socio-cultural dynamics of Gilman's time while remaining incredibly relevant to contemporary discussions on gender equality and mental health. As readers explore these works, they will not only appreciate the literary prowess of Gilman but also engage with enduring themes that continue to resonate today.

    In the early 20th century, Westerns were one of the most popular genres in Hollywood, and one of the young stars at the forefront was Roy Rogers, who had come from an Ohio farm to transform himself into a cowboy. Regardless of his background, Rogers certainly looked the part of the quintessential cowboy, along with his wife Dale Evans and his horse Trigger. His versatile singing and acting abilities made him successful both on radio and on the screen. 
    Rogers came of age at a time when the “singing cowboy” was at the apex of his popularity, and that was favorable because he actually got his start in show business as a singer. In the early ‘30s, he bounced around several groups as a country music singer before earning national attention as a member of the Sons of the Pioneers, who were signed to Decca and had a couple of hits. As a result, when he first appeared in movies in 1935, it was usually in bit roles that required singing, but when Gene Autry threatened to quit acting in 1938, Rogers was viewed as a suitable replacement for lead roles. As it turned out, he became the premiere “singing cowboy” in Autry’s stead, and from 1939-1954, he was one of the Top 10 Western stars in Hollywood, and a Top 10 movie star overall during some of those years. 
    As Rogers evolved into the “King of the Cowboys”, he became a pop culture icon, and he was shrewd enough to capitalize on his image. All sorts of Roy Rogers merchandise hit stores, from action figures to comic strips, and Rogers even banked on the popularity of his horse Trigger by featuring him enough to make the horse a household name as well. Even today, people can find the name Roy Rogers all over the place, if only because he eventually had his name lent to a popular fast food chain in later years.

    "Footprints in the Sand of Caregiving" is a compilation of a soul's reflections on its solitary walk on the shore of a lonely island of caregiving. 
    Withdrawn from my previous routines, lifestyle and social activities to focus on caregiving, I feel isolated and disconnected. In my loneliness and desperation, from the bottom of my heart, I cry to the Lord and the Lord answers me saying: "My steadfast love never ceases; my mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is my faithfulness" 
    (Lamentations 3: 22 -23). 
    What a wonderful promise of our Father God! When I am tempted to wallow in the mud of self-pity, I turn my gaze to the Lord. When I become depressed and distressed, I cling to His promise of unceasing love and mercy which are new every morning. 
    May these reflections lighten your path when you cross the dark valleys of life. May God bless you, my friend.

    This book includes several books about the following topics: 
    Age of Enlightenment - Finally… finally, humanity began to wake up. Finally, they decided to take science, knowledge, politics, development, multiple angles and perspectives, and the details of our everyday lives a bit more seriously. For centuries, raw and primal urges and principles had taken hold of conquerors, officials, and governments. 
    Renaissance - When we think of the Renaissance, we often think of paintings. And indeed, many painters and sculptors were part of the artistic transformation the Renaissance caused. But there was more. The Renaissance basically formed a period of collective enlightenment and freedoms that put an end to certain tyrannies and false notions from the Middle Ages. 
    Claude Monet - Claude Monet has been the icon for the impressionist movement. Painting vague strokes of color and contrast, water, and flowers were typical. Other aspects of the art weren’t as clear but were just as important, nonetheless. 
    Pablo Picasso - Picasso’s work is famous. His art is intricate yet bizarre. Many people have stood still over the wonders and simplicity of cubism and surrealism and have either been disgusted or amazed by it. 
    Vincent van Gogh - Vincent van Gogh is undoubtedly one of the most influential painters of the end of the 19th century. His style was unique in that he used all types of colors in a painting that didn’t show those colors in reality and somehow, he still made it work and look like an actual shape.  
    Michelangelo Buonarotti - Michelangelo had a vision, a dream, and the talent to carry out those imaginations. His life, in our perspective, is a compilation of great works of art, architecture, sculptures, paintings, and intricate movements, contrast, colors, and anatomy of the human body.
