Jane Campion: Cinema, Nation, Identity (Contemporary Approaches to Film and Television)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is an innovative collection of original essays on Jane Campion, renowned female amateur filmmaker. In `Jane Campion: Cinema, Nation, Identity` a diverse group of contributors challenge the view that Campion`s body of work lacks coherence or unity to instead examine the important characteristics and themes that underlie it. Editors Hilary Radner, Alistair Fox, and Irene Bessiere have compiled rich, original scholarship on Campion`s oeuvre to probe issues previously neglected by scholars - like her debt to New Zealand sources and her personal views of family dynamics - and those that benefit from additional insight - such as her place in the feminist film making tradition. This volume also investigates Campion`s distinct cinematic style in light of these issues to examine the source of her enduring cross-cultural and international appeal. Contributors in the first section explore the creation of subjectivity and identity in Campion`s films, which include well-known works like `The… [detailed...]

Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Description: The subversive style of the woman who has become one of the world`s greatest film directors. From Jane Campion`s early award-winning short films on through international sensation The Piano and beyond, Kathleen McHugh traces the director`s distinctive visual style as well as her commitment to consistently renovating the conventions of `women`s film`s. By refusing to position her female protagonists as victims, McHugh argues, Campion scrupulously avoids the moral structures of melodrama, and though she often works with the narratives, mise-en-scene, and visual tropes typical of that genre, her films instead invite a distanced or even amused engagement.

Publisher: CRW Publishing Limited
Description: `Jane Eyre` has long been one of the most popular of all literary classics. It tells the moving and eventful story of Jane, an orphan entrusted to the care of her aunt by her dying uncle. The aunt cares greatly for her own children, on whom she lavishes praise and attention, but dislikes Jane, whom she ignores and unfairly punishes. Jane escapes by being sent to a strict Evangelical school where, despite the austerities of the environment, she finally meets pupils and teachers who nurture and encourage her. From there she goes to work as a governess at a large country mansion, where she falls in love with the mysterious master of the house, the Byronic Mr. Rochester, a charismatic character with a troubled past. Part fairy tale, part Gothic horror, part love story, `Jane Eyre` is the archetypal account of an orphan`s progress through a confusing and often cruel world. Формат: 10 см х 15,5 см. [detailed...]

Jane Eyre

1999 y.
Publisher: Wordsworth Editions Limited
Description: `Jane Eyre` ranks as one of the greatest and most perennially popular works of English fiction. Although the poor but plucky heroine is outwardly of plain appearance, she possesses an indomitable spirit, a sharp wit and great courage. She is forced to battle against the exigencies of a cruel guardian, a harsh employer and a rigid social order. All of which circumscribe her life and position when she becomes governess to the daughter of the mysterious, sardonic and attractive Mr Rochester. However, there is great kindness and warmth in this epic love story, which is set against the magnificent backdrop of the Yorkshire moors. Ultimately the grand passion of lane and Rochester is called upon to survive cruel revelation, loss and reunion, only to be confronted with tragedy. Формат: 12,5 см х 19,5 см. [detailed...]

Jane Fonda`s Words of Politics and Passion collects Fonda`s most stirring public statements from 1970 through 2005, in speeches, interviews, and articles from over thirty years of tireless campaigning against war and militarism and on behalf of women`s rights, women`s health, feminism, and the environment.

Klaus Kertess
Jane Freilicher

2004 y.
Publisher: Harry N. Abrams
Description: Jane Freilicher, one of the most admired painters at work today, came of age in the era of Abstract Expressionism. Studying with Hans Hofmann, she became a pivotal member of an important group of New York artists and writers, including the poet John Ashbery (who has written poems in which she figures), the photographer Rudy Burckhardt, and the painters Fairfield Porter and Larry Rivers. Yet for more than 50 years, she has pursued her own distinctive style, an intimate and painterly realism. This book is a comprehensive survey of Freilicher`s career, written by Klaus Kertess, a well-known authority on contemporary art. Lavishly illustrated with more than 150 images, the volume features five decades of her work, including the New York cityscapes, landscapes of Long Island, and still lifes, especially of flowers, for which she is best known. This beautiful monograph will stand as the book on a painter whose unique vision, long acclaimed by her fellow artists, has attracted… [detailed...]

Description: Jane Grigson`s Fruit Book includes a wealth of recipes, plain and fancy, ranging from apple strudel to watermelon sherbet. Jane Grigson is at her literate and entertaining best in this fascinating compendium of recipes for forty-six different fruits. Some, like pears, will probably seem homely and familiar until you`ve tried them a la chinoise. Others, such as the carambola, described by the author as looking `like a small banana gone mad`, will no doubt be happy discoveries. You will find new ways to use all manner of fruits, alone or in combination with other foods, including meats, fish, and fowl, in all phases of cooking from appetizers to desserts. And, as always, in her brief introductions Grigson will both educate and amuse you with her pithy comments on the histories and varieties of all the included fruits.

Charles Brockden Brown
Jane Talbot

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Charles Brockden Brown`s novels are most often remembered as gothic fiction -- but he wasn`t at all writing the sort of thing Ann Radcliffe was in his years writing on the other side of the Atlantic. His books were often violent, and full of the pointy-headed intellectuality of his day: they were drawn from late-Enlightenment scientific and medical thinking. Perhaps they`re in debt to Wollstonecraft, Godwin, Holcroft -- and perhaps to the German `Schauer-romantik` of Friedrich Schiller. He built plots around motifs like sleepwalking and religious mania. Jane Talbot is an epistolary novel, (that is, a novel in the form of a series of letters), and, like all of Brown`s works, it`s a gripping tale, and more than a little gothic. Enjoy! [detailed...]

Jane and His Lordship`s Legacy (Jane Austen Mysteries)

2005 y.
Publisher: Bantam
Description: Readers who hope to recapture, if only briefly, the pleasure of reading Jane Austen for the first time will welcome Barron`s eighth Jane Austen mystery, set in the summer of 1809. Jane and her mother have just settled at Chawton Cottage, the country house that will be Jane`s last home, when she`s surprised by the delivery of a bequest from the late Lord Harold Trowbridge, who was murdered at the end of Jane and the Ghosts of Netley (2003). No sooner has Jane established that the Bengal chest is filled with his lordship`s personal papers than she discovers the mutilated body of a laborer in the cottage`s cellar. Jane once again turns sleuth, investigating not only the murder but also rival claims to two different estates in the neighborhood, a bank robbery and a local man`s disappearance. The author expertly weaves the tale`s disparate elements, sympathetically sketching in such secondary characters as Jane`s mother and brother Henry, on both of whom she casts an ironic eye. As… [detailed...]

Jane and the Man of the Cloth: Being the Second Jane Austen Mystery

1997 y.
Publisher: Crimeline
Description: Nearly as wry as Jane Austen herself, Barron delivers pleasure and amusement in her second delicious Jane Austen mystery (Jane and the Unpleasantness of Scargave Manor, 1996). While headed to Lyme Regis for a seaside holiday in 1804, the Austen carriage overturns and Jane`s sister Cassandra is injured. The family finds shelter at High Down Grange, home of sardonic Geoffrey Sidmouth and his beautiful cousin Seraphine LeFevre. The narrative is structured as a journal in which Barron`s Jane notes her distress at finding herself attracted to the sensuous Sidmouth. The Austens` trip is historically accurate but sparsely enough documented to allow Barron great latitude in creating a tale that makes the most of the period when the Napoleonic Wars raged and the coast was rife with smugglers. At the local Assembly dance, Jane gathers gossip from the Crawfords, Barnewalls, Lucy Armstrong and Captain Percival Fielding, an injured naval officer, who hints that Sidmouth is the `Reverend,` a… [detailed...]

Jane and the Unpleasantness at Scargrave Manor: Being the First Jane Austen Mystery

1996 y.
Publisher: Crimeline
Description: With this series opener, Barron catches the Jane Austen popularity wave with impeccable timing?but that may be the best that can be said of this debut. Purportedly editing Austen manuscripts found in an old Maryland estate, Barron recounts the suspicious death of the elderly Frederick Payne, Earl of Scargrave. Anonymous notes accuse Isobel, Austen`s friend and Payne`s young bride, and a `grey-hared Lord` of murdering the earl. Intensifying Isobel`s misery is Lord Harold Trowbridge, who badgers the widow to sell him her estate in Barbados. Concerned for her friend and for Fitzroy Payne, the new earl who not-so-secretly loves Isobel, Austen undertakes snooping that leads her to a second corpse and leads Isobel and Fitzroy to trial before the House of Lords. As Austen explores a passel of suspects who are heavy-handedly cast as the originals for the characters in her novels, the reader is offered imitation scholarly footnotes. To be truly helpful, Barron might have better explained how… [detailed...]
