It Started With A Kiss in the magical land of Cornwall

Judith Lea; Philip Elliott

Publishing Push LTD
2022
pokkari
A true life book about two individuals who were both in committed relationships with other partners. It is a story of how they ended up in Cornwall, how they eventually met, manoeuvred their way through those relationships, fell in love and began a new life together.The Puppet Master facilitated the coming together of the incongruous couple and surprisingly there was attraction. As their lives became more entwined, subliminally the chemistry that existed between them became all consuming. Neither were looking for a new relationship, but destiny had other ideas, and platonic meetings became trysts.With a leap of faith the trysts blossomed into a new blended family living in a tiny two up, two down house. Sprinkle into the cauldron; two teenagers, four GSD's (German Shepherd Dogs), naked adventures, death defying sailing, a brother with a secret, family availing themselves of free holidays, ostriches, helicopters, explosions at work, a film premiere, parties, fireworks, schizophrenia, drug addiction and a smidgen of Cornish history: two normal people living a normal life Told with humour, honesty and candour, Judith and Philip's autobiography is jointly narrated, presenting two contrasting viewpoints and chronicles their story of destiny, love, heartbreak and relinquishment.

Joseph Ellicott and the Holland Land Company

Joseph Ellicott and the Holland Land Company

William Chazanof

Syracuse University Press
1979
pokkari
In 1800, the Holland Land Company assigned surveyor Joseph Ellicott the task of selling at a profit 3.3 million acres of land west of the Genesee River in New York State. By 1821, when Ellicott’s career as Resident-Agent ended, the area’s population had grown from only a few settlers to over 100,000. This study traces the evolution of western New York from the time the Indians relinquished control to the solidification of institutional life.As a land promoter in the wilderness, Joseph Ellicott quickly discovered that business and politics went hand in hand, for the factors that affected land sales were frequently political. Although his contract with the Holland Land Company expressly forbade it, he became deeply involved in the political life of western New York, playing a decisive role in the creation of Genesee County and its further divisions into four counties. Ellicott used his influence to advance the Erie Canal project, particularly from Rochester westward, and persuaded the state legislature to grant a charter for the Bank of Niagara. Although the rest of the state fluctuated in its political preferences, from his base in Batavia he kept western New York loyal to the Republican Party, building up close relations with DeWitt Clinton.During his long career, Ellicott made many enemies. The postwar nationalists resented him as the agent of the Dutch-owned company. Taxpayers fought him because he blocked a road tax on land owned by nonresidents; his employers were irritated when he could not persuade the state to buy Holland Land Company property; his increasing melancholy angered customers; and his break with Clinton during the 1820 gubernatorial campaign set off a chain reaction of political pressures that led to his dismissal as Resident-Agent the next year. Ellicott direct in 1826.Based on extensive research in the Holland Land Company Papers in Amsterdam’s City Archives, Professor Chazanof’s study presents a previously unexplored part of the political history of New York State on regional, national, and international levels. Illustrations and maps are included.

T. S. Elliot's The Waste Land

T. S. Elliot's The Waste Land

Reeves Gareth

Prentice-Hall
1994
nidottu
This work argues that although "The Waste Land" demands close reading, the spirit of the old New Criticism works with inappropriate assumptions about unity and closed form. Many critics have tried to fix the text, to find hidden narratives and plots, spiritual guests and allegories of salvation. Instead, this reading sees the poem as resolutely open-ended, supporting this view with recent developments in Reader-Response criticism and Reception Theory. The study focuses on the way poetry sounds (or does not sound, cannot be sounded). It concentrates on syntax, lineation and intonation. It also brings out the presence of the muted voices of wronged women in a work often called misogynistic.

In the Land of the Grasshopper Song

In the Land of the Grasshopper Song

Mary Ellicott Arnold; Mabel Reed; André Cramblit; Terry Supahan

Bison Books
2011
pokkari
In 1908 easterners Mary Ellicott Arnold and Mabel Reed accepted appointments as field matrons in Karuk tribal communities in the Klamath and Salmon River country of northern California. In doing so, they joined a handful of white women in a rugged region that retained the frontier mentality of the gold rush some fifty years earlier. Hired to promote the federal government’s assimilation of American Indians, Arnold and Reed instead found themselves adapting to the world they entered, a complex and contentious territory of Anglo miners and Karuk families. In the Land of the Grasshopper Song, Arnold and Reed’s account of their experiences, shows their irreverence towards Victorian ideals of womanhood, recounts their respect toward and friendship with Karuks, and offers a rare portrait of women’s western experiences in this era. Writing with self-deprecating humor, the women recall their misadventures as women “in a white man’s country” and as whites in Indian country. A story about crossing cultural divides, In the Land of the Grasshopper Song also documents Karuk resilience despite seemingly insurmountable odds. New material by Susan Bernardin, André Cramblit, and Terry Supahan provides rich biographical, cultural, and historical contexts for understanding the continuing importance of this story for Karuk people and other readers.
