The Saint and Artist: A Study of the Fiction of Iris Murdoch【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Published to coincide with his major biography of Iris Murdoch, Peter Conradi’s acclaimed critical appreciation of her work is reissued in a fully revised and updated edition, with a foreword by John Bayley.</p> <p>‘Peter Conradi is uniquely qualified to accompany the reader in a discovery of one of the 20th-century’s most remarkable novelists and thinkers.’ John Bayley</p> <p>Iris Murdoch, who died in 1999, was the author of twenty-six novels, including ‘The Bell’, ‘A Fairly Honourable Defeat’, ‘The Black Prince’ and the Booker Prize-winning ‘The Sea, The Sea’.</p> <p>In ‘The Saint and the Artist’, the only full critical examination of Murdoch’s work by a British critic, Peter Conradi, who knew her well, traces the way in which the zest and buoyant high spirits of her early novels gave way to a more deeply and darkly comic achievement in the novels of the 1970s, and in some from the last period. He suggests how her own life, wonderfully transmuted into high art, provided the raw material for her novels, and argues that they should be read as serious entertainments and as important fictions in the Anglo-Russian tradition, and not as disguised philosophy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,307円

A Very English Hero The Making of Frank Thompson【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>An untold story of love, idealism and courage in the Second World War</strong></p> <p>**'**<strong>A very moving account of the all-too-brief life of a warrior-poet'</strong> Antony Beevor, author of <em>Stalingrad</em></p> <p>***'***<strong>An elegy for a lost generation, and a fascinating social and political history of a peculiar period in our recent past ... it's impossible to put down Conradi's impressive and moving account of Thompson's life without a feeling of regret.'</strong> <em>Mail on Sunday</em></p> <p>Modest, handsome and a fine poet, eccentric Englishman Frank Thompson made an unlikely soldier.</p> <p>Brother of E. P. Thompson and lover of Iris Murdoch, Frank was an intellectual idealist, a rare combination of brilliant mind and enormous heart. Of his wartime experiences, Frank wrote prodigiously. His letters, diaries and poetry still read fresh and intimate today - and it is from these that Peter J. Conradi brings vividly to life a brilliantly attractive and courageous personality.</p> <p>Aged just twenty-three, Frank was captured, tortured and executed in Bulgaria. A soldier of principle and integrity, he fought a poet's war; a very English hero from a very different era.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,991円

On Grief Voices through the ages on how to manage death and loss【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>How do you 'prepare' for bereavement? Religious faith can help, as can ritualised codes of dress and behaviour that recognise different stages of mourning. But many of us feel singularly unprepared when we lose someone. No one 'theory' can sooth the bereaved, precisely because grief so strips us naked and profoundly wounds us. Nothing <em>pre-cooked</em> helps. No quick fix, no one-shot deal.</p> <p>In this inspirational book, Peter J Conradi draws on literature, history and philosophy to present a broad array of different voices and perspectives on grief. His carefully chosen stories, excerpts and poems offer wisdom and consolation, but they also make us think, break down taboos and sometimes even find humour and light amidst the painful, bewildering reality of death.</p> <p>Everyone's experience of grief is different, but reading of the myriad different ways in which others have approached it can, while not necessarily easing our grief, certainly help us feel less alone.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,708円

Iris Murdoch: A Life: The Authorized Biography【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A full and revealing biography of one of the century’s greatest English writers and an icon to a generation.</p> <p>Dame Iris Murdoch has played a major role in English life and letter for nearly half a century. As A.S.Byatt notes, she is ‘absolutely central to our culture’. As a novelist, as a thinker, and as a private individual, her life has significance for our age. There is a recognisable Murdoch world, and the adjective ‘Murdochian’ has entered the language to describe situations where a small group of people interract intricately and strangely. Her story is as emotionally fascinating as that of Virginia Woolf, but far less well known; hers has been an adventurous, highly eventful life, a life of phenomenal emotional and intellectual pressures, and her books portray a real world which is if anything toned down as well as mythicised. For Iris’s formative years, astonishingly, movingly and intimately documented by Conradi’s meticulous research, were spent among the leading European and British intellectuals who fought and endured World War II, and her life like her books, was full of the most extraordinary passions and profound relationships with some of the most inspiring and influential thinkers, artists, writers and poets of that turbulent time and after.</p> <p>Peter Conradi was very close to both Iris Murdoch and John Bayley, Iris’s husband, whose memoir of their life together has itself been the subject of an enormous amount of attention and acclaim. This will be an extraordinarily full biography, for there are vast resources in diaries and papers and friends’ recollections, and while it is a superlative biography it is also a superb history of a generation who have profoundly influenced our world today.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,639円

Family Business A Memoir【電子書籍】[ Peter J. Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Peter J. Conradi's memoir <em>Family Business</em> includes a cast of characters ranging from his European Jewish forebears who came to Britain in the Victorian era to influential novelist and philosopher Iris Murdoch, whose biography Conradi himself wrote. The arc of Conradi's story travels, unusually, from the relative integration of his ancestors to his rebellion against this and his long association with Murdoch, another outsider in English society.</p> <p>Against the upwardly mobile successes of his immigrant ancestors ? with their exotic, multifarious stories ? and his relationship with his beloved grandmother came the more immediate dysfunction of his parents' marriage. Young, clever, bisexual Peter became a 'knight errant' protecting his mother, and set a precedent repeated later in his friendship with Murdoch. In between Conradi relates his public school education, becoming a kibbutznik, taking part in the early years of gay rights and becoming a writer.</p> <p>In the final chapters Conradi explores his long and close relationship with Iris Murdoch and her husband John Bayley. Conradi was both Murdoch's biographer and, on several occasions, her carer, and has much to say on the nature of biography, and on the world of Murdoch and Bayley, including previously unpublished material on them both.</p> <p><em>Family Business</em> is an enthralling book ? a biographer's autobiography ? with numerous strands sensitively and thoughtfully explored, and including almost fifty previously unseen photographs.</p> <p>"I am at a loss for sufficient words: I love this book. The portrait of his parents and his relationship with them is a masterpiece. I don't think this portrait of the nineteenth century Jewish diaspora in England will ever be bettered." ? <em>Carmen Callil</em>.</p> <p>"A mingling of charm, comedy, confessional and inevitable tragedy: all beautifully orchestrated. I can only congratulate you on a brilliant series of stories" ? <em>Michael Holroyd</em>.</p> <p>"Worth reading, in the same way as Murdoch's books are, … because it's pleasurable and educational to spend hours in the company of a writer so thoughtful, so questioning, so open to human life in all its peculiarities." ? Laura Feigl, <em>The Daily Telegraph</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,921円

The Red Ripper Inside the Mind of Russia's Most Brutal Serial Killer【電子書籍】[ Peter Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The shocking true story of the Russian serial killer who brutally murdered more than fifty victimsーand evaded capture for over a decade.</strong></p> <p>By the time he was brought to trial in 1992, Soviet serial killer Andrei Chikatilo had killed more than fifty women and children, often sexually abusing them and leaving their bodies mutilated beyond recognition. Although he was initially arrested in 1984, the police lacked enough evidence to pin the unsolved murders on him and he was able to torture and kill dozens more before his eventual conviction. Compiling exclusive interviews and trial transcripts, journalist and editor at London’s <em>Sunday Times</em> Peter Conradi reveals how the grandfather and former teacher carried out a horrific twelve-year killing spree right under the nose of authority.</p> <p>Based on extensive research into Chikatilo’s past and the elements of Soviet society that allowed his crimes to go unsolved for so long, Conradi delves into the life of one of history’s most prolific and disturbing serial killers. Interviews with Moscow police detectives detail the fervent hunt for the man who preyed on young children, prostitutes, and runawaysーa search that turned up many dead ends and false convictions before a massive undercover surveillance effort ultimately nabbed Chikatilo.</p> <p>A chilling look into the deranged mind of a monster, <em>The Red Ripper</em> is a comprehensive and shocking true crime accountーplus photosーof one of the twentieth century’s deadliest killers and the manhunt to catch him.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,232円

John Fowles【電子書籍】[ Peter Conradi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>John Fowles had gained great popularity as a contemporary novelist on both sides of the Atlantic. In this comprehensive study of his work, originally published in 1982, Peter Conradi relates his work to his life, his ideas and his place in contemporary English fiction at the time. Conradi sees him as both realist and experimental, and in detailed analyses of <em>The Magus</em> and <em>The French Lieutenant’s Woman</em> illuminates Fowles’s use of literary genres ? the romance (in particular), the detective story, the thriller, the Victorian novel, the tale of courtly love ? to exploit and explode the conventions of that particular genre. Seduction, erotic quest, capture and betrayal are among the most important themes in Fowles’s work to be considered here.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,003円
