Barbara

Hermann Broch

Bokvennen

sidottu
I et ikke fullført romanprosjekt fra 1930-årene, satte Broch denne novellen som et midtpunkt. Historiens jeg-person forelsker seg i barnelegen Barbara. Konfliktstoffet bunner i kvinnens samfunnsengasjement som er uforenelig med private lengsler om lykke, famile og egne barn.

Roman i Gyldendal Nordisk-serien. Ny udgave med nyt efterord af Maja Lucas. Færøerne i slutningen af 1700-tallet. Den unge præst Poul Aggersøe ankommer til Thorshavn, fast besluttet på at begynde et ydmygt, asketisk liv langt fra Københavns glitrende facader. Men da han møder den sprudlende og hjertevarme præsteenke Barbara, glemmer han sine fromme livsønsker – alt, han kan tænke på nu, er den unge kvinde, som har bjergtaget ham. Men Barbara er friere og mere dristig i sit begær end andre kvinder, Poul har mødt. Hun forelsker sig let, og mens Poul desperat forsøger at fastholde hende, skubber han hende lige ind i armene på den unge student, Andreas Heyde. Barbara er en storslået roman om en kvinde, som søger visdom i menneskelig nærhed og øjeblikkets magi – og en mand, som søger den i skrifterne. En fortælling om hengivelse og forfængelighed og ødelæggende religiøs dogmatik – og en trosbekendelse til den ustyrlige jordiske kærlighed. Gyldendal Nordisk er glemte og kendte klassikere fra den tid, hvor det nordiske selvbillede bliver skabt på diskussioner om køn, klasse, tro og moral. Det er radikale værker, der forandrede verden, og som stadig er spillevende.

Ända sedan hon var liten har Barbara varit vacker, med korpsvart hår och ett häftigt temperament. Men efter en olycka förmörkas hennes liv när hon börjar förlora hörseln och tvingas leva i tystnad. Tystnaden skyddar henne dock också från en vetskap som annars hade kunnat förstöra henne, den hemska vetskapen om hennes ursprung.

The Best Devotions of Barbara Johnson

The Best Devotions of Barbara Johnson

Barbara Johnson; Thelma Wells

Zondervan
2001
nidottu
If Barbara Johnson has brought comfort to thousands of women, it’s not because her life has been comfortable. Barbara has known more heartbreak than most of us ever will. But that is why her encouragement truly inspires, why her humor makes us smile, and why her insightfulness can move us to tears. Through thick and thin, Barbara has held onto God--and so she is uniquely qualified to help us see how God holds onto us and won’t let go, no matter what life dishes out. The sixty selections in this book represent the cream of Barbara’s devotional crop. Kick your shoes off, settle back, and unwind. Or give this book to someone you know who would enjoy a chuckle, a reflective pause, an "Aha!" moment, maybe even a tear. Insights and encouragement lie within--and more than a few grins!

Barbara Kingsolver

Barbara Kingsolver

Mary J. Demarr

Greenwood Press
1999
sidottu
Barbara Kingsolver wears the feminist mantle with joyful pride, and her spirited embrace of political themes is contagious. Responding to richly-drawn heroines along their journeys to do right by family and community, readers embrace Kingsolver's political novels, making them bestsellers. From the haunting Arizona landscape of Kingsolver's early trilogy of novels, to the lush African jungle that sets the scene in her latest, The Poisonwood Bible, Kingsolver weaves colorful tapestries with vivid prose, exceptional intelligence, and unexpected humor. DeMarr's comprehensive treatment covers not only Kingsolver's four novels, each with its own chapter, but also discusses with considerable insight her background as a feminist, as a journalist, and, most importantly, as a humanist.Introducing readers to Kingsolver, DeMarr devotes a chapter to her life and work, showing how the two are deeply intertwined. While Kingsolver's writing is never strictly autobiographical, the well-researched section on politics and genre discusses how experiences in Kingsolver's own life and in her work as a political journalist have influenced her fiction writing. In addition to the celebrated novels that readers have come to love: The Bean Trees, Pigs in Heaven, Animal Dreams, and The Poisonwood Bible, as well as the poems and short stories, DeMarr covers the nonfiction: the essays and political writings. A full chapter analyzes each novel in terms of plot and character development, thematic content, symbolism, and the importance of place and language. Students and fans of Kingsolver will find this work, including its well-organized bibliography, accessible and interesting.

Facets of Barbara Egger Lennon's life depict an ordinary white Midwestern woman of her time: teacher, wife, mother. Her work as a union organizer and political activist, however, complicate that picture. The way in which Egger Lennon balanced these roles illustrates how many women of her time shaped their lives in the face of three significant forces: work, family, and politics. Enriched by years of her detailed diary entries, Barbara Egger Lennon: Teacher, Mother, Activist deepens our understanding of the ways in which work and political activism existed alongside the traditional role of women in the early 20th century.About the Lives of American Women series: Selected and edited by renowned women's historian Carol Berkin, these brief biographies are designed for use in undergraduate courses. Rather than a comprehensive approach, each biography focuses instead on a particular aspect of a woman's life that is emblematic of her time, or which made her a pivotal figure in the era. The emphasis is on a 'good read', featuring accessible writing and compelling narratives, without sacrificing sound scholarship and academic integrity. Primary sources at the end of each biography reveal the subject's perspective in her own words. Study questions and an annotated bibliography support the student reader.

Barbara Wootton and the Legacy of a Pioneering Public Criminologist

Barbara Wootton and the Legacy of a Pioneering Public Criminologist

Philip Bean

Routledge
2020
sidottu
This book offers an assessment of Barbara Wootton’s legacy as a pioneering public criminologist. Barbara Wootton (1897-1988) was a leading British social scientist, magistrate, academic and public servant. She was also a life peer (Baroness Wootton of Abinger) and the first woman to sit on the Woolsack in the House of Lords as Deputy Speaker. One of the Royal Commissions on which she served was on the Penal System, (1964) and two of the Departmental Committees were on the Business of the Criminal Courts (1958) and Criminal Statistics (1963). Of her written work perhaps the most famous is `Social Science and Social Pathology` (published in 1959) which was an attempt to discover what the social sciences had to say about criminality, its causes and its social effects. This book examines her career in historical context, and her contribution to thinking and scholarship on a range of topics. These topics range from the courts and the penal system and her report on the Community Service Order, to crime and criminal law and her analysis of the notions of mens rea, to her work on psychiatry and criminal justice. It explores her contribution as a utilitarian critic in Criminology, within the British empiricist tradition.Written in a clear and direct style, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, criminal justice, law and all those interested in learning more about Barbara’s life and times.

Lauren Holmes

"Holmes trains a precise lens on the millennial generation's mixed bag of manners, mores, and machinations... In these] beautifully brazen stories, worlds collide in fresh, imaginative ways." --Elle A fresh, honest, and darkly funny debut collection about family, friends, and lovers, and the flaws that make us most human. Fearless, candid, and incredibly funny, Lauren Holmes is a newcomer who writes like a master. She tackles eros and intimacy with a deceptively light touch, a keen awareness of how their nervous systems tangle and sometimes short-circuit, and a genius for revealing our most vulnerable, spirited selves. In "Desert Hearts," a woman takes a job selling sex toys in San Francisco rather than embark on the law career she pursued only for the sake of her father. In "Pearl and the Swiss Guy Fall in Love," a woman realizes she much prefers the company of her pit bull--and herself--to the neurotic foreign fling who won't decamp from her apartment. In "How Am I Supposed to Talk to You?" a daughter hauls a suitcase of lingerie to Mexico for her flighty, estranged mother to resell there, wondering whether her personal mission--to come out--is worth the same effort. And in "Barbara the Slut," a young woman with an autistic brother, a Princeton acceptance letter, and a love of sex navigates her high school's toxic, slut-shaming culture with open eyes. With heart, sass, and pitch-perfect characters, Barbara the Slut is a head-turning debut from a writer with a limitless career before her.

Barbara Hepworth

Eleanor Clayton; Ali Smith

Thames Hudson Ltd
2021
sidottu
Barbara Hepworth is one of the most important artists of the 20th century, yet she has been the subject of relatively few monographs in comparison to her male counterparts. This biography moves beyond the traditional narratives of modernism, truth to materials, and the landscape to provide a penetrating insight into Hepworth’s remarkable life, work and legacy. Barbara Hepworth was reproached for single-mindedness in her lifetime, with critics and commentators framing both the artist and her work as ‘cool and restrained’. A continued focus on her modernist abstract sculpture of the 1930s and its relation to her male contemporaries has left vast swathes of her work and related passions overlooked. This fully illustrated biography reflects for the first time Hepworth’s multi-faceted, interdisciplinary and networked approach, shedding light as never before on her interests in music, dance, poetry, contemporary politics, science and technology; her engagement with these fields through friends and networks as well as her artistic practice; and the ways in which she synthesized sometimes seemingly conflicting disciplines and ideas into one coherent and inspirational philosophy of art and life.With 178 illustrations

Barbara Hepworth died in 1975, after a long illness which had not prevented her from completing the work which many consider to be her masterpiece: The Family of Man. Born in Yorkshire in 1903, of the heroic generation in twentieth-century British art which included Henry Moore (with whom she studied in Leeds) and Ben Nicholson (whom she married), she explored in her sculpture the forms of life - especially human life - as well as those of mathematics. Professor Hammacher has added new material to his study to bring the story up to the time of her death, and has included several new illustrations.
