Dispensing Beauty in New York & Beyond: The Triumphs and Tragedies of Harriet Hubbard Ayer

Dispensing Beauty in New York & Beyond: The Triumphs and Tragedies of Harriet Hubbard Ayer

Harriet Hubbard Ayer moved to New York City by 1883 and established Recamier Preparations, Inc., the earliest cosmetic company owned and operated by a woman. First with her creams and balms and then with her words about women's health and beauty, she influenced several generations of women to look and feel good about themselves. The jealous and vindictive men in her life punished her for her ambition, accomplishments and independence by attempting to steal her lucrative business and seize her children. After she successfully sued them, they had her committed to an insane asylum. Indomitable, this former Chicago socialite reinvented herself as the highest paid newspaperwoman in the United States, editing the women's pages of Joseph Pulitzer's New York World. Her incredible story is presented here as never before.

Understanding "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic": How Novelist Harriet Beecher Stowe and Poet Julia Ward Howe Influenced the No

The most influential literary contribution to the politics of the northern States during the mid-to-late 1850's - helping incite State Secession and a horrific four-year war that killed 360,000 Federals - was Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," published in 1851-52, just before the onset of "Bleeding Kansas." Likewise, that war's most influential music/poetry contribution - morally justifying, in the minds of many northern States people, the military conquest of the Confederacy and the huge death toll suffered - was Julia Ward Howe's poem "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" (1861), a variation upon the then-recent Federal army camp folk song, "John Brown's Body," which was an intentional mockery of a very popular, traditional South Carolina church revival song, "Say, Brothers," its music and lyrics written by William Steffe a few years earlier. The "Battle Hymn" is handed down to us today as "lyrics by Julia Ward Howe and music by William Steffe." The two essays in this booklet are excerpted from Howard Ray White's four volume history, titled, "Bloodstains, an Epic History of the Politics that Produced and Sustained the American Civil War and the Political Reconstruction that Followed." This booklet and other works by the writer are available as e-books and as paper books on Amazon.com. Search "Howard Ray White". In the mid-1800's women were not to be leaders in politics and religion, but Harriet Beecher Stowe and Julia Ward Howe did just that. Of Harriet, daughter of Lyman Beecher and sister of Henry Ward Beecher, both influential Abolitionists/ministers/educators, Sinclair Lewis would write: "Uncle Tom's Cabin was the first evidence to America that no hurricane can be so disastrous to a country as a ruthlessly humanitarian woman." The same could be equally said of Julia, a close friend of Charles Sumner and, wife of Boston Abolitionist leader Samuel Howe, one of the "Secret Six" financial supporters of the notorious John Brown.

Charles Reade, George Meredith and Harriet Martineau as Serial Writers of «Once a Week » (1859-1865)

Charles Reade, George Meredith and Harriet Martineau as Serial Writers of «Once a Week » (1859-1865)

The book is about three primary serial contributors to Once a Week during the critical period when it was featured as the rival magazine of Dickens’s All the Year Round. Divergent as their natures were, the three writers – Reade, Meredith and Martineau – took markedly different stands and separated themselves from the popular Dickensian trend in the competitive journalistic world. This study not just uncovers the long neglected Victorian weekly, but also writers of genuine originality and great thinkers. The three often underestimated writers and their serial publications represent cross-sections of the dynamic Victorian journalism. Discoveries of the Dickens’s «rival group» supplement Dickensian studies.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2001 im Fachbereich Anglistik - Literatur, Note: sehr gut, Carl von Ossietzky Universitat Oldenburg (Fachbereich Sprach- und Kulturwissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Proseminar Restoration Comedy, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Mit der Auffuhrung neuer Komodien wahrend der englischen Resturation tauchten immer wieder junge weibliche Figuren aus, die auffallend scharfsinnig, klug, wohlhabend, attraktiv und als Resultat all dieser Eigenschaften von Mannern unabhangig waren. Bei zwei dieser Figuren handelt es sich um Harriet aus George Ethereges The Man of Mode (1676) sowie Alithea aus William Wicherleys The Country Wife (1675). Das Hauptaspekt dieser Arbeit wird die Charakterisierung der beiden weiblichen Figuren Harriet und Alithea sein. Dies wird mittels des Vergleiches erfolgen, wobei zunachst Harriet und Alithea anhand einiger Aspekte ihrer Personlichkeiten miteinander verglichen werden. Hierdurch werden diejenigen Charaktereigenschaften beider Figuren deutlich, in denen sie sich in signifikantem Masse unterscheiden. Sowohl Alithea als auch Harriet besitzen in der jeweiligen Komodie eine Antagonistin. Anschliessend an den Vergleich der beiden Frauenfiguren untereinander werden sowohl Harriet als auch Alithea in ihren Handlungs- und Denkweisen mit diesen gegensatzlichen Figuren verglichen. Hierdurch werden weitere Charakterzuge Harriets und Alitheas deutlich werden, die beim Vergleich der beiden unabhangigen Frauenfiguren untereinander nicht hervortraten. Handlungsbedingt wird Harriets Gegenspielerin von Mrs. Loveit dargestellt, da zwischen diesen beiden Frauen ein Interessenskonflikt um die Liebe Dorimants besteht. Die ganzlich unterschiedlichen Personlichkeiten dieser Nebenbuhlerinnen unterstreichen die Signifikanz dieses Gegensatzpaares. Alitheas charakterlicher Gegenpol ist handlungsbedingt keine Gegnerin, sondern erhalt Alitheas standige Unterstutzung. Es handelt sich um Alitheas Schwagerin Mrs. Margery Pinchwife, die als von ihrem Ehe
