Literary Presentations of Divided Germany: The Development

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hutchinson, Peter / Hutchinson, Allen Ed., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This book was the first full-length of East German fiction to appear in English. It takes as its subject the political division of Germany into two increasingly incompatible states, and it concentrates on East German fiction for the simple reason that West German writers are ignorant of one of the most significant events of modern history. After dealing with various historical, bibliographical and cultural problems, Dr Hutchinson isolates three narrative devices of particular value to East German writers: creating a discriminating East German visitor to the West who reinforces the standard image of the capitalist world; introducing figures who are representative of each German state; and examining the two states in terms of their relationship with the Third Reich. A conclusion surveys changes in the literary image of Germany's division between and , and compares East German works on the subject with the few written in the West.

Feminist Interp. Wollstonecraft-PR

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Falco, Maria J., PUBLISHER: Penn State University Press, Essays in honor of the bicentennial of the publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's A Vindication of the Rights of Woman -- a revolutionary work that argued on behalf of the political, economic, and social equality of women. Combining the liberalism of Locke and the "civic humanism" of Republicanism, Mary Wollstonecraft explored the need of women for coed and equal education with men, economic independence whether married or not, and representation as citizens in the halls of government. In doing so, she foreshadowed and surpassed her much better known successor, John Stuart Mill. Ten feminist scholars prominent in the fields of political philosophy, constitutional and international law, rhetoric, literature, and psychology argue here that Wollstonecraft, by reason of the scope and complexity of her thought, belongs in the "canon" of political philosophers along with Rousseau and Burke, her contemporaries, both of whom she strenuously engaged in political debate. These essays explore the many aspects of her thought that resound so tellingly to the modern woman, including her ground-breaking attempt to be completely self-sufficient. The final bibliographical essay outlines the changing interpretations of Wollstonecraft's work over the past two hundred years and evaluates her standing among political theorists today.

Office Politics

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Melfi, Mary, PUBLISHER: Guernica Editions, Ostensibly, Office Politics is about the modern workplace. It is about the relationship of the powerless to the powerful: the anxieties, tensions, frustrations, the daily psychological fare of those who have to satisfy the whims of bosses, work ever harder for the same pay (or less) while the snarling of the pit bulls of unemployment can be faintly heard through the ornate doors of the company fortress. Still, this is no sociological treatise set to free verse. Nor is it a lighthearted comedy a la Dolly Parton and Lilly Tomlin -- although the poet does refuse her sharp commentaries about office queens, workers (and drones) with humor. Poetry is the shorthand of universal messages.

Calgary: An Illustrated History

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Foran, Maxwell / National Museum of Man, PUBLISHER: James Lorimer & Company,, Fort Calgary was built in by the North West Mounted Police to bring law and order to the newly-opened frontier of the Canadian West. With the arrival of the railway and the granting of land concessions favourable to ranching the new town of Calgary grew rapidly, justifying the eternal optimism of its energetic boosters. The discovery of oil at Leduc in restored the city's pre-eminence in the province's economic life. Always the most American of Canada's major cities, Calgary in recent years has felt the southern influence even more as American multinationals set up new headquarters in the rapidly rising downtown core. Nevertheless, despite the general uniformity of its ethnic makeup and the relative lack of civic enterprise, the city's inhabitants have preserved a spirit which is energetic and immediately recognizable. The text has been enhanced by a fine selection of 120 historical photographs illustrating all aspects of the city's life from its origins to the present day.
