Victorian Women Poets

Victorian Women Poets

By: Tess Cosslett

One of the triumphs of feminist criticism has been to rescue major poets such as Emily Bronte, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Christina Rossetti from neglect. While the essays chosen for this volume focus on these three major figures, work is also included on less well-known poets who have only recently been brought into critical prominence. The introduction clarifies for the reader the themes, problems and preoccupations that inform the criticism and provides a useful guide to the debates surrounding poetry and feminism. The advantages and disadvantages of applying different critical approaches, such as psychoanalytic and historicist, to the understanding of this period and genre are also fully explored. The substantial introduction, headnotes, detailed bibliography and suggestions for further reading will make this book essential reading for students of English, Victorian and Women's Literature, and Feminist Critical Theory.

Feminism & Autobiography

Texts, Theories, Methods

By: Tess Coslett,Celia Lury,Penny Summerfield

Featuring essays by leading feminist scholars from a variety of disciplines, this key text explores the latest developments in autobiographical studies. The collection is structured around the inter-linked concepts of genre, inter-subjectivity and memory. Whilst exemplifying the very different levels of autobiographical activity going on in feminist studies, the contributions chart a movement from autobiography as genre to autobiography as cultural practice, and from the analysis of autobiographical texts to a preoccupation with autobiography as method.

Novel Bondage

Slavery, Marriage, and Freedom in Nineteenth-Century America

By: Tess Chakkalakal

Novel Bondage unravels the interconnections between marriage, slavery, and freedom through renewed readings of canonical nineteenth-century novels and short stories by black and white authors. Situating close readings of fiction alongside archival material concerning the actual marriages of authors such as Lydia Maria Child, Harriet Beecher Stowe, William Wells Brown, and Frank J. Webb, Chakkalakal examines how these early novels established literary conventions for describing the domestic lives of American slaves in describing their aspirations for personal and civic freedom. Exploring this theme in post-Civil War works by Frances E.W. Harper and Charles Chesnutt, she further reveals how the slave-marriage plot served as a fictional model for reforming marriage laws. Chakkalakal invites readers to rethink the "marital work" of nineteenth-century fiction and the historical role it played in shaping our understanding of the literary and political meaning of marriage, then and now.

No Rest for the Dead

By: Jeffrey Deaver,David Baldacci,Alexander McCall Smith,Kathy Reichs,Peter James,Tess Gerritsen,Jeff Lindsay

When Christopher Thomas, a curator at San Francisco's Museum of Fine Arts, is murdered and his decaying body is found in an iron maiden in Berlin, his wife Rosemary Thomas is the prime suspect. Long suffering under Christopher's unfaithful ways, Rosemary is tried, convicted and executed. Ten years later, Jon Nunn, the detective who cracked the case, becomes convinced that the wrong person was put to death. Along with financier Tony Olsen, he plans to gather everyone who was there the night Christopher died and finally uncover the truth about what happened that fateful evening. Could it have been the ne'er do well brother Peter Hausen, interested in his sister's trust fund having got through his own; the curatorial assistant Justine Olengard, used and betrayed by Christopher; the artist Belle who turned down his advances only to see her career suffer a setback; or someone else all together? No Rest for the Deadis a thrilling, page-turning accomplishment that only the very best thriller writers could achieve.

Localizing global sport for development

By: Iain Lindsey,Tess Kay,Ruth Jeanes,Davies Banda

This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC) open access license. This jointly authored book extends understanding of the use of sport to address global development agendas by offering an important departure from prevailing theoretical and methodological approaches in the field. Drawing on nearly a decade of wide-ranging multidisciplinary research undertaken with young people and adults living and working in urban communities in Zambia, the book presents a localised account that locates sport for development in historical, political, economic and social context. A key feature of the book is its detailed examination of the lives, experiences and responses of young people involved in sport for development activities, drawn from their own accounts. The book's unique approach and content will be highly relevant to academic researchers and post-graduate students studying sport and development in across many different contexts.

Wholeness Not Fullness

A Holistic Recovery Approach to Bulimia, Binge Eating Disorder and Food Addiction

By: Tess Wichlinski

This book serves as a profound and compassionate guide to healing from eating disorders such as Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder (BED). Going beyond the typical boundaries, it addresses conditions like Food Addiction (FA) and emotional eating, recognizing their significant impact on Bulimia and BED. Drawing from a blend of scientific research, personal insights, and spiritual wisdom gathered from years of grappling with these disorders, the author presents a transformative path to recovery. Challenging conventional approaches, this book delves deeply into a wide array of alternative healing methods, including mindfulness and meditation, shadow and inner child work, yoga and breathwork, ayurveda and holistic nutrition, bioenergetic healing, narrative therapy, somatic psychotherapy, quantum healing, and ancestral healing, just to name a few. By combining these therapeutic techniques with personal wisdom, the author emphasizes the importance of self-realization and self-actualization in the healing process. At its essence, this healing path requires introspection, inviting readers to explore the depths of their own beings. Echoing the wisdom of spiritual mentors, the author underscores the profound message that true healing arises from within, fueled by the boundless power of Universal Love. The principles of recovery advocate for a transformative mindset, encouraging readers to view themselves not as victims, but as heroes on their individual paths to healing. With a compelling and empathetic tone, the author offers reassurance that it is never too late to heal, no matter how daunting the journey may seem. Ultimately, this book is a roadmap to rediscovering one's true self and attaining inner wholeness. It reminds readers to cultivate a deep belief in the beauty and preciousness of life.

North by South

The Two Lives of Richard James Arnold

By: Charles Hoffmann,Tess Hoffmann

In 1823, Richard James Arnold, descendant of a Quaker family involved in the movement to abolish slavery in Rhode Island, married Louisa Gindrat of Bryan County, Georgia, and acquired a plantation called White Hall--thirteen hundred acres of rice and cotton land and sixty-eight slaves. Over the next fifty years, Arnold led two distinct, if never entirely separate lives, building through successive Georgia winters a profitable southern "paradise" rooted in human bondage, then returning each spring to his business interests and extended family in Rhode Island. Organized around a surviving plantation journal kept during two winters and one spring, North by South encompasses Arnold's career as a rice and cotton planter as it uncovers the increasingly difficult social and moral disguises that enabled him to move freely through two worlds.
