First published as Bless Thine Inheritance by Sophia Holloway. Celia Mardham's first London Season should have been a great success, but a near fatal riding accident has left her with a pronounced limp which means she cannot even curtsy, let alone dance. Her mother, Lady Mardham, makes one last effort to save her daughter from a life of spinsterhood. She draws up a list of guests for a country house party, selecting an array of potential suitors as well as young ladies who will not be rivals, or so she thinks. Among the gentlemen is Lord Levedale and when he meets Celia he sees her, not the limp. However, accidents, misunderstandings and spiteful interventions litter the path ahead, and may succeed in driving them apart for good.

Emily Hilda Daniell (1880-1949) was an English children's writer, novelist, mountaineer, and advocate for female suffrage who wrote under the pen name E. H. Young. Despite being almost completely unheard of now, Daniell was a celebrated author who produced numerous best sellers during her time. First published in 1937, ''Celia'' revolves around the titular protagonist, a disillusioned housewife in her 40s who lives in a flat with her architect husband and two children. Instead of complaining about her dull life, she creates her own private world of thoughts that no one is allowed to enter. A poignant exploration of the oppressiveness of domesticity in Interwar Britain that will not disappoint those who have read and enjoyed other works by this author. Other works by this author include: "Corn of Wheat" (1910), "A Bridge Dividing" (1922), and "Moor Fires" (1916). Read & Co. Books is republishing this classic novel now in a new edition complete with a new specially-commissioned biography of the author.

Celia in Search of a Husband: By a Modern Antique

Celia in Search of a Husband: By a Modern Antique

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2022
sidottu
This ground-breaking nineteenth-century volume is of considerable scholarly interest as an example of a femino-centric popular novel. Celia in Search of a Husband is a high-spirited and entertaining example of an anti-Jacobin novel, written at the height of the backlash against female intellectuals during the Napoleonic wars. Despite this hostile climate, the author sought to acknowledge the importance of female education and independence whilst at the same time endorsing the traditional Christian teaching that a wife should be subordinate to her husband. Although second wave feminists prioritized the progressive writers with whom they more readily identified, more recent scholarship has rightly paid close attention to conservative or moralist writers such as Miss Byron and recognized how influential they were. Accompanied by extensive editorial commentary, this edition of Celia in Search of a Husband contributes to this scholarship on the literary history of women’s writing, and will be a welcome to those with a particularly interest in women’s writing, satiric novels and spoofs, and Jane Austen.

Celia, a Slave

Celia, a Slave

Melton A. McLaurin; Daina Ramey Berry; Jennifer L. Morgan

University of Georgia Press
2021
nidottu
Originally published in 1991, Celia, a Slave illuminates the moral dilemmas that lie at the heart of a slaveholding society by telling the story of a young slave who was sexually exploited by her enslaver and ultimately executed for his murder. Melton A. McLaurin uses Celia’s story to reveal the tensions that strained the fabric of antebellum southern society by focusing on the role of gender and the manner in which the legal system was used to justify slavery. An important addition to our understanding of the pre–Civil War era, Celia, a Slave is also an intensely compelling narrative of one woman pushed beyond the limits of her endurance by a system that denied her humanity at the most basic level.

Texas Christian University Press

Celia Smith Hill’s journal provides a glimpse of hardscrabble life in far West Texas during the first half of the twentieth century. Hill’s family moved to Texas from Tennessee in the late 1800s. After her death, Bill Wright and Marianne Wood researched the history of the area and interviewed family and friends to provide context for Hill’s colorful tale of endurance in an unforgiving landscape. Hill’s family suffered lean times during the Depression before cinnabar—mercury ore—was discovered on her family’s property. During World War II, the Fresno Mines supplied one tenth of all the mercury produced in the United States. After graduating college, Celia began a peripatetic teaching career that lasted decades, marrying and losing two husbands along the way. Finally, living alone along the most remote western border of Texas, Celia spent her later years selling snacks to the occasional visitor. Bill Wright met Celia at her La Junta General Store in Ruidosa, where she told him about her unfinished journal. With this book Bill fulfills his promise to share her courageous and fascinating life with others.

For most women who came of age in the 1950s, life as a single woman was unthinkable. In this memoir, Celia Morris describes how marriage and conformity to received notions of ""womans place"" ate away at the self-respect, dignity, and even sanity of her generation.
