MARIA Band 2

MARIA Band 2

Werner Engelmann

Fouque Publishers, Inc.
2011
pokkari
Der Wandel des Bilds der Frau bleibt eine Herausforderung auch des 21. Jahrhunderts: Ihrer Emanzipation stellt sich eine Welt entgegen, die sie als Besitz betrachtet, ihren Kerker als "gottgewollt" ansieht. Auch Maria, dem vaterlosen Fl chtlingsm dchen, wird im Nachkriegsdeutschland das Frausein verwehrt. Doch der Einbruch einer fremden Welt befreit verdr ngte Bed rfnisse. Maria k mpft um Hosen und Lippenrot, gegen die Dem tigung f r ihr Geschlecht: Es geht nicht um Mode gegen "Nat rlichkeit". Es geht um Recht auf Fraulichkeit. Maria revoltiert, bricht aus dem Kerker "jungfr ulicher Tugend" aus. Die Romantrilogie "Maria" untersucht psychologische Bedingungen des Neuanfangs nach einer Katastrophe. Dieser zweite Band beschreibt, vor dem Hintergrund der 50er Jahre, Ursachen dogmatischer Frauenbilder und zeitbedingte Formen weiblichen Protests gegen ein berholtes Patriarchat. Er stellt ein Klischeebild in Frage, das in neuer Lust auf Weiblichkeit blo e R ckkehr des "Heimchens" zu erkennen glaubt.

Maria Theresa

Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger

PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS
2022
sidottu
A major new biography of the iconic Austrian empress that challenges the many myths about her life and ruleMaria Theresa (1717–1780) was once the most powerful woman in Europe. At the age of twenty-three, she ascended to the throne of the Habsburg Empire, a far-flung realm composed of diverse ethnicities and languages, beset on all sides by enemies and rivals. Barbara Stollberg-Rilinger provides the definitive biography of Maria Theresa, situating this exceptional empress within her time while dispelling the myths surrounding her.Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence, Stollberg-Rilinger examines all facets of eighteenth-century society, from piety and patronage to sexuality and childcare, ceremonial life at court, diplomacy, and the everyday indignities of warfare. She challenges the idealized image of Maria Theresa as an enlightened reformer and mother of her lands who embodied both feminine beauty and virile bellicosity, showing how she despised the ideas of the Enlightenment, treated her children with relentless austerity, and mercilessly persecuted Protestants and Jews. Work, consistent physical and mental discipline, and fear of God were the principles Maria Theresa lived by, and she demanded the same from her family, her court, and her subjects.A panoramic work of scholarship that brings Europe's age of empire spectacularly to life, Maria Theresa paints an unforgettable portrait of the uncompromising yet singularly charismatic woman who left her enduring mark on the era in which she lived and reigned.

Maria Spilsbury (1776?1820)

Maria Spilsbury (1776?1820)

Charlotte Yeldham

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2010
sidottu
Maria Spilsbury Taylor (1776-1820) lived and worked in London and Ireland and was patronized by the Prince Regent. A painter of portraits, genre scenes, biblical subjects and large crowd compositions - an unusual feature in women's art of this period - she is represented in major museums and art galleries as well as in numerous private collections. Her work, hitherto considered on a purely decorative level, merits closer attention. For the first time, this volume argues the relevance of Spilsbury's religious background, and in particular her evangelical and Moravian connections, to the interpretation of her art and examines her pervasive, and often inovert references to the Bible, hymnody and religious writing. The art that emerges is distinctly Protestant and evangelical, offering a vivid illustration of the mood of patriotic, Protestant fervour that characterized the quarter century succeeding the French revolution. This focus may be situated in the general context of increasing interest in the religious faith of historical actors - men and women - in the eighteenth century, and in the related contexts of growing acknowledgement of a religious aspect to "enlightenment" art, as well as investigations into Protestant culture in Ireland. The book is extensively illustrated and contains a list of all of Spilsbury's known works.

For her heroism, the U.S. government presented her with a Bronze Star. The work includes an extensive bibliography, a map of the area held by insurrectionists, and several photographs offering a glimpse of World War II seldom seen.

María Amparo Ruiz De Burton

María Amparo Ruiz De Burton

University of Nebraska Press
2004
sidottu
Since the recent republication of her novel The Squatter and the Don, María Amparo Ruiz de Burton (1832–95) has become a key figure in the recovery of nineteenth-century Mexican American literature. An aristocratic Californiana, she championed the rights of Mexican Americans in novels, plays, and letters. Her 1885 novel called attention to the illegal appropriation of Mexican land by the United States government, and she critiqued the political mores of America after the Civil War in light of the Mexican-American war. Her keen assessment of corporate capitalism at the end of the nineteenth century, frank acknowledgment of feminine desire, and deft insights about economic realities and class relations were unique among her American peers. Using Ruiz de Burton's work to analyze the critical schism conventionally imposed on nineteenth-century literary culture in America, the essays in this collection also draw connections between her work and the contemporary Chicana and Chicano canons. At once richly historical and critically nuanced, these essays appraise a politically complex Mexican American writer alternately celebrated as marginalized and censured for her identification with a social elite. This volume includes a section on pedagogy that offers a discussion of teaching approaches, syllabi, discussion questions, and assignments.

Maria Zef

Maria Zef

Paola Drigo

University of Nebraska Press
1989
pokkari
Maria Zef was considered the farthest limit of verismo in contemporary Italian literature when it was first published in 1936. Like the great films to come after the war, Shoeshine and The Bicycle Thief, Paola Drigo's gritty novel portrays the struggle to come of age or even survive in a harsh environment. But its setting is more rural and its protagonist is a young girl whose voice will now be heard around the world in this English translation by Blossom Steinberg Kirschenbaum. Born in the medieval town of Castelfranco in the Venéto, Paola Drigo (1879–1938) wrote frankly about the poor and brutal lives of toilers in preindustrial northern Italy. Maria Zef, her masterpiece, focuses on the orphaned Maria, who assumes responsibilities beyond her years in protecting her baby sister and staying alive. Poverty, toil, illness, solitude, and abuse contribute to one of the most horrifying climaxes in modern fiction.
