Sinopsis

In "Corrie," Ruth Lynn weaves a poignant narrative that delves into the intricacies of domestic life and the struggles of the female spirit in the late 19th century. Utilizing a realist literary style, Lynn captures the hardships faced by her protagonist, Corrie, against the socio-economic backdrop of her time. The novel reflects the era's tensions over gender roles, societal expectations, and the quest for personal autonomy, inviting readers into a world where resilience and vulnerability coexist. Lynn's careful attention to character development and evocative language makes this work a keen exploration of both the private and public spheres of women's lives. Ruth Lynn emerged as a significant voice during a pivotal time in literature, often aligning her work with the early feminist movements.

Art and Science - Biographies of...

Kelly Mass

This combo contains several biographies of scientists and artists that have become famous in the history books. Let's take a look at which ones.
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.
Claude Monet certainly faced many struggles as he tried to build his passion for painting into a career.
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. Different from other impressionistic artists, he developed his still lifes, his portraits, and other beautiful paintings.
Edgar Allan Poe - Perhaps you have heard of Edgar Allan Poe. Perhaps not. Either way, this 19th-century author has received quite some fame for his works and his unique style. His mystery and gruesome horror stories, comedy, and other genres have reached far into the depths of American literature.
Thomas Edison - Thomas Alva Edison, called "America's biggest developer," was an American developer and businessperson. In disciplines consisting of electrical power generation, mass communication, sound recording, and movie, he developed many devices.
Nikola Tesla - Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American innovator, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and futurist who helped establish the contemporary rotating present (AC) electrical energy delivery system.

The Hidden Fires - A Cairngorms...

Merryn Glover

Shortlisted for the Boardman Tasker Award for Mountain Literature 
 
 
 
Elemental, fierce, and full of wonder, the Cairngorm mountains are the high and rocky heart of Scotland. To know them would take forever, to love them demands a kind of courageous surrender. 
 
 
 
In The Hidden Fires, Merryn Glover undertakes that challenge with Nan Shepherd as companion and guiding light. Following in the footsteps and contours of The Living Mountain, she explores the same landscapes and themes as Shepherd's seminal work. This is a journey separated by time but unified by space and purpose, a conversation between two women across nearly a century that explores how entering the life of a mountain can illuminate our own. 
 
 
 
An Australian who grew up in the Himalayas, her early experiences of the Scottish hills and weather left her cold. But gradually acclimatizing and with an approach like Shepherd's, that is more mountain wandering than mountaineering, she discovers the spark that sets the hills and herself on fire. Through Glover's deepening encounter, the wild majesty and iridescence of the Cairngorms is revealed in this beautiful evocation of landscape, place, and identity.

Remembering Colin Ward

Ben Ward

Colin Ward was an anarchist, a writer, an educator and an environmentalist.

His wideranging interests included New Towns, allotments, transport and the British holiday camp. Colin Ward was the foundereditor of "Anarchy" and the "Bulletin of Environmental Education", and was for many years a contributing editor to "Freedom".

It drew inspiration from writers of the past such as Kropotkin and Gustav Landauer but was firmly rooted in the present. This booklet consists of tributes at his funeral and a memorial meeting from other writers, editors, family members, academics and educators.
