The Life and Times of Janet Leigh

By: Janet Leigh Stanley

This is a story about a beautiful girl from a small Mississippi town and her adventures through life. She was a caring, fun loving, and charismatic person who enjoyed life to its fullest. This book chronicles her many pursuits and adventures. She was a true joy and I had the pleasure of being with her for 20 years. She was my companion and friend. I hope by reading this book you can enjoy her as much as I did. This book was written in her final years of her life as she fought a courageous battle with cancer. This book is a tribute to her life. With all my love Kirk A. Stanley.

Celluloid Sisters

Women And Popular Cinema

By: Janet Thumim

Taking De Lauretis' proposition that popular cinema is a 'technology of gender' the book explores the representation of women and the readerly activity of female audience members in respect of a group of eighteen films successful at the British box office between 1945 and 1965. A method for the analysis of fictional characters is presented and the discursive context within which contemporary meanings were formed is explored through reference to the press, particularly that addressed to a female readership.

Coleridge, Lamb, Hazlitt, and the Reader of Drama

By: Janet Ruth Heller

Many nineteenth-century writers believed that the best tragedy should be read rather than performed, and they have often been attacked for their views by later critics. Through detailed analysis of Coleridge's Shakespearean Criticism, Lamb's On the Tragedies of Shakespeare, and Hazlitt's Characters of Shakespeare's Plays, Heller shows that in their concern with educating the reader these Romantics anticipate twentieth-century reader response criticism, educational theory, and film criticism."--Publishers website.

Rounding out this new edition are an expanded chronology, and an updated bibliography that brings attention to many feminist online resources and periodicals, and emphasizes global and third-wave feminism, both new developments in the field since the publication of the first edition. Paying tribute to the struggles of the women, and men, who have worked to change and to improve the living conditions for women in the world, this book promises a comprehensive historical overview for readers of all interest levels.

John Payne Collier

Scholarship and Forgery in the Nineteenth Century

By: Arthur Freeman,Janet Ing Freeman

John Payne Collier (1789–1883), one of the most controversial figures in the history of literary scholarship, pursued a double career. A prolific and highly influential writer on the drama, poetry, and popular prose of Shakespeare's age, Collier was at the same time the promulgator of a great body of forgeries and false evidence, seriously affecting the text and biography of Shakespeare and many others. This monumental two-volume work for the first time addresses the whole of Collier's activity, systematically sorting out his genuine achievements from his impostures. Arthur and Janet Freeman reassess the scholar-forger's long life, milieu, and relations with a large circle of associates and rivals while presenting a chronological bibliography of his extensive publications, all fully annotated with regard to their creditability. The authors also survey the broader history of literary forgery in Great Britain and consider why so talented a man not only yielded to its temptations but also persisted in it throughout his life.

Last Things

Emily Brontë's Poems

By: Janet Gezari,Lucretia L Allyn Professor of Literatures in English Janet Gezari

Emily Brontë's poetry is more often celebrated than read. This book seeks to reinstate her poems at the heart of Victorian writing while underlining their relevance. For admirers of 'Wuthering Heights', this work brings the concerns and methods of the novel into focus by relating them to the poems.
