Cather Studies, Volume 11 Willa Cather at the Modernist Crux【電子書籍】[ Cather Studies ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>Willa Cather at the Modernist Crux</em> examines Willa Cather’s position in time, in aesthetics, and in the world. Born a Victorian in 1873, Cather made herself a modernist through the poems, stories, and novels she wrote and published into the twentieth century. Beginning with a prologue locating Cather’s position, this volume of Cather Studies offers three sets of related essays.</p> <p>The first section takes up Cather’s beginnings with her late nineteenth-century cultural influences. The second section explores a range of discernible direct connections with contemporary artists (Howard Pyle, Frederic Remington, and Ernest Blumenschein) and others who figured in the making of her texts. The third section focuses on <em>The Song of the Lark</em>, a novel that confirms Cather’s shift westward and elaborates her emergent modernism. An epilogue by the editors of <em>The Selected Letters of Willa Cather</em> addresses how the recent availability of these letters has transformed Cather studies. Altogether, these essays detail Cather’s shaping of the world of the early twentieth century and later into a singular modernism born of both inherited and newer cultural traditions.</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。 4,274円

La morte viene per l'arcivescovo【電子書籍】[ Willa Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>La storia di un giovane parroco, Jean Marie Latour, che in un pomeriggio di autunno cavalca nel deserto del New Mexico dove ? stato nominato vicario apostolico e ha il compito di riportare la fede in un paese abbandonato al proprio destino per quasi trecento anni e nel quale il conflitto tra i messicani cattolici e le trib? indiane ? sempre sul punto di riaccendersi. Poche strade, nessun fiume navigabile, commercio lento su muli da soma, sentieri che attraversano un deserto spietato e infestato di cacciatori, predatori di pellicce e cercatori d'oro senza scrupoli. Uno dei testi fondamentali di Willa Cather, una sorpresa inaspettata per chi cerca un testo maestoso e profondo, mozzafiato nella descrizione di paesaggi e stati d'animo, un libro nel quale l'ottimismo di fondo prevale e potremmo definirlo un atipico western cattolico. All'interno - come in tutti i volumi Fermento - gli "Indicatori" per consentire al lettore un agevole viaggio dentro il libro.</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。 484円

Alexander's Bridge【電子書籍】[ Willa Sibert Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Late one brilliant April afternoon Professor Lucius Wilson stood at the head of Chestnut Street, looking about him with the pleased air of a man of taste who does not very often get to Boston. He had lived there as a student, but for twenty years and more, since he had been Professor of Philosophy in a Western university, he had seldom come East except to take a steamer for some foreign port. Wilson was standing quite still, contemplating with a whimsical smile the slanting street, with its worn paving, its irregular, gravely colored houses, and the row of naked trees on which the thin sunlight was still shining. The gleam of the river at the foot of the hill made him blink a little, not so much because it was too bright as because he found it so pleasant. The few passers-by glanced at him unconcernedly, and even the children who hurried along with their school-bags under their arms seemed to find it perfectly natural that a tall brown gentleman should be standing there, looking up through his glasses at the gray housetops.</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。 640円

A Lost Lady With an Excerpt by H. L. Mencken【電子書籍】[ Willa Cather Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>From one of the greatest minds of twentieth-century American literature, Willa Cather’s <em>A Lost Lady</em> follows the steady downfall of a popular socialite, mirroring the decline of the idealised pioneering era.</strong></p> <p>Niel Herbert fell in love with Marion Forrester when he was just a young boy. The American socialite is married to a successful railroad pioneer, Captain Daniel Forrester, and she is the perfect woman. Marion’s beauty is incomparable, and her charm and charisma liven the small town of Sweet Water. But as Niel discovers more about Marion, her glimmering facade is smashed and he begins to realise that the American Dream is not all that it seems. The novel carefully portrays the decline of the pioneering era and the diminishing essence of the Old West.</p> <p>First published in 1923, <em>A Lost Lady</em> had great impact on American literature, and Cather’s character of Marion Forrester served as F. Scott Fitzgerald’s inspiration for Daisy Buchanan in <em>The Great Gatsby</em> (1925).</p> <p>This new edition of <em>A Lost Lady</em> features an introductory essay by H. L. Mencken, and would make a wonderful read for fans of <em>The Great Gatsby</em> and collectors of Cather’s work.</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。 748円

Le pioniere【電子書籍】[ Willa Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Conscia della tensione fra vecchio e nuovo mondo, che tanto aveva sconvolto la vita dei migranti europei negli Stati Uniti tra Otto e Novecento, Willa Cather scelse di raccontare l’ombra e le contraddizioni della frontiera attraverso semplici ed eroiche figure femminili.Cresciuta nel Nebraska a contatto con il mondo degli immigrati cechi e scandinavi, nei suoi romanzi e racconti descrisse la vita di frontiera, il conflitto tra uomo e ambiente, scandito dalla solennit? dei cicli stagionali. In questa raccolta, con brani tratti da La vecchia signora Harris, Il vicino Rosicky, Gli anni pi? belli, La ragazza boema ? tra i suoi romanzi pi? famosi ? la penna della Cather narra l’ombra e le contraddizioni della frontiera attraverso le donne: donne di normale eccezionalit?, volitive, generose, custodi di lingua e di tradizioni. Donne pioniere, che si dibattono tra le memorie culturali del passato europeo e le necessit? della sopravvivenza. La contemporaneit? della scrittura di Willa Cather, a partire dalla sua capacit? di narrare la forza e, insieme, la malinconia della migrazione, la sua sensibilit? nel cogliere le sfumature del processo di inserimento in un nuovo mondo e il difficile ruolo che le donne vi svolgono, d? nome a emozioni, sentimenti, paure e conflitti cui raramente si riesce a dare contorno.Willa Cather, nata in Virginia nel 1873 e morta a New York nel 1947, vincitrice nel 1923 del Premio Pulitzer con il romanzo One of Ours, ha lasciato numerosi romanzi e racconti, in Italia pubblicati a pi? riprese a partire dagli anni Cinquanta.

Lucy Gayheart【電子書籍】[ Willa Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>"Some people's lives are tormented by what takes place to their person or their belongings, but for others, destiny is what takes place to their emotions and their thoughtsーthat and not anything greater". In this haunting 1935 novel, the Pulitzer Prize?prevailing author of My ?ntonia and Death Comes for the Archbishop plays a chain of crystalline versions on the topics that preoccupy her finest fiction: the impermanence of innocence, the opposition between prairie and city, provincial American values and international tradition, and the grandeur, elation, and heartache that watch for a talented younger woman who leaves her small Nebraska city to pursue a life in art. At the age of eighteen, Lucy Gayheart heads for Chicago to have a look at the song. She is stunning and impressionable and ardent. and these traits appeal to the attention of Clement Sebastian, an aging but charismatic singer who exercises all the tragic, sinister fascination of a man who has renounced existence only to show back to capture it one closing time. Out of their doomed love affair. and Lucy's fatal estrangement from her origins. Willa Cather creates a novel. that is as achingly lovely as a Schubert sonata.</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。 80円

One of Ours (THE GREAT CLASSICS LIBRARY)【電子書籍】[ Willa Cather ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p> Cather won the 1923 Pulitzer Prize for this novel, which tells the story of Claude Wheeler, a Nebraska native around the turn of the 20th century. The son of a successful Midwestern farmer and an intensely pious mother, he is guaranteed a comfortable livelihood. Nevertheless, Wheeler views himself as a victim of his father's success and his own inexplicable malaise.<br /> The novel is divided thematically into two parts: the first half in Nebraska, where Claude Wheeler struggles to find his life's purpose and is left ultimately disappointed; and in France, where his pursuit of purpose is vindicated. A romantic unfulfilled by marriage and an idealist without an ideal to cling to, Wheeler fulfills his romantic idealism on the brutal battlefields of 1918 France.<br /> One of Ours is thus a portrait of a peculiarly American personality: it is the story of a young man born after the American frontier has vanished, yet whose quintessentially American restlessness seeks redemption on a frontier far bloodier and more distant than that which his forefathers had already tamed</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。 399円

<p>The Song of the Lark is the third novel by American author Willa Cather, written in 1915. It is generally considered to be the second novel in Cather's Prairie Trilogy, following O Pioneers! (1913) and preceding My ?ntonia (1918). The book tells the story of a talented artist born in a small town in Colorado who discovers and develops her singing voice. Her story is told against the backdrop of the burgeoning American West in which she was born in a town along the rail line, of fast-growing Chicago near the turn of the twentieth century, and of the audience for singers of her skills in the US compared to Europe. Thea Kronborg grows up, learning herself, her strengths and her talent, until she reaches success. The title comes from a painting of the same name by Jules Breton in 1884 and part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago.</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。 100円
