The Age of Innocence Love and Society in Gilded Age New York【電子書籍】[ Edith Wharton ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York City's high society in the 1870s, Edith Wharton's "The Age of Innocence" masterfully explores the intricate tensions between societal expectations and personal desire. Wharton employs a rich, evocative prose style, characterized by its keen social observation and psychological depth, to unravel the complex dynamics of love, duty, and the pursuit of happiness. The narrative revolves around Newland Archer, a young lawyer entangled in a web of conventions, as he grapples with his feelings for the unconventional May Welland and her scandalous cousin, Ellen Olenska. Wharton critiques the hypocrisies of aristocratic society, employing a subtle irony that allows readers to reflect on the nature of innocence and the cost of societal acceptance. Edith Wharton, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, was deeply influenced by her own experiences navigating the upper echelons of American society. Having grown up in a wealthy family, Wharton became acutely aware of the rigid social mores that governed personal relationships. This background inspired her to delve into themes of class, gender, and morality, making "The Age of Innocence" not only a reflection of its time but also a timeless commentary on the societal structures that continue to shape human interactions. This novel is a poignant and thought-provoking exploration of the conflict between personal aspiration and societal obligation. Wharton's incisive social commentary, combined with her richly drawn characters, makes "The Age of Innocence" a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of love and duty within the constraining spheres of culture. It challenges readers to consider the price of conformity, making it a profound yet accessible work that resonates through the ages.</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。

The Millionaire and the Mummies Theodore Davis's Gilded Age in the Valley of the Kings【電子書籍】[ John M. Adams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A biography of the Gilded Age American lawyer & tycoon, exploring his exploits from New York City’s government to the ancient tombs in Luxor, Egypt.</strong></p> <p>Egypt, the Valley of the Kings, 1905: An American robber baron peers through the hole he has cut in an ancient tomb wall and discovers the richest trove of golden treasure ever seen in Egypt.</p> <p>At the start of the twentieth century, Theodore Davis was the most famous archaeologist in the world. His career turned tomb-robbing and treasure-hunting into a science. Using six of Davis’s most important discoveriesーfrom the female Pharaoh Hatshepsut’s sarcophagus to the exquisite s<em>habti</em> statuettes looted from the Egyptian Museum not too long agoーas a lens around which to focus his American rags-to-riches tale, author John M. Adams chronicles the rise of a poor country preacher’s son. Through corruption and fraud, Davis amassed tremendous wealth in Gilded Age New York and then atoned for his ruthless career by inventing new standards for systematic excavation in the field of archaeology. He found a record eighteen tombs in the Valley and, breaking with custom, gave all the spoils of his discoveries to museums. A confederate of Boss Tweed, friend of Teddy Roosevelt, and rival of J. P. Morgan, the colorful “American Lord Carnarvon” shared his Newport mansion with his Rembrandts, his wife, <em>and</em> his mistress. The only reason history has forgotten Davis to a large extent is probably the fact that he stopped just short of King Tutankhamen’s tomb, the discovery of which propelled Howard Carter (Davis’s erstwhile employee) to worldwide fame just a few short years later.</p> <p>Drawing on rare and never-before-published archival material, <em>The Millionaire and the Mummies</em>, the first biography of Theodore Davis ever written, rehabilitates a tarnished image through a thrilling tale of crime and adventure, filled with larger-than-life characters, unimaginable treasures, and exotic settings.</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。

Only the Rich Can Play How Washington Works in the New Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ David Wessel ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>In a <em>Winners Take All</em> meets <em>This Town</em> narrative, a <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author tells the story of the creation of a massive tax break, in which political and economic elites attend to the care and feeding of the super-rich, and inequality compounds.</strong></p> <p>David Wessel's incredible tale of how Washington works-and why the rich keep getting richer-starts when a Silicon Valley entrepreneur develops an idea intended as a way to help poor people that will save rich people money on their taxes. He organizes and pays for an effective lobbying effort that pushes his idea into law with little scrutiny or fine-tuning by congressional or Treasury tax experts-and few safeguards against abuse. With an unbeatable pair of high-profile sponsors, bumper-sticker simplicity and deft political marketing, the Opportunity Zone became an unnoticed part of the 2017 Trump tax bill.</p> <p>The gold rush followed immediately thereafter.</p> <p>David Wessel follows the money to see who profited from this plan that was supposed to spur development of blighted areas and help people out of poverty: the Las Vegas strip, the Portland (Oregon) Ritz-Carlton, the Mall of America, and self-storage facilities-lucrative areas where the one percent can park money profitably and avoid capital gains taxes. And the best part: unlike other provisions for eliminating capital gains taxes (inheritance, for example) you don't have to die to take advantage of this one.</p> <p>Wessel provides vivid portraits of the proselytizers, political influencers, motivational speakers, consultants, real estate dealmakers, and individual money-seekers looking to take advantage of this twenty-first century bonanza. He looks at places for which Opportunity Zones were supposedly designed (Baltimore, for example) and how little money they've drawn. And he finds a couple of places (Erie, PA) where zones are actually doing what they were supposed to, a lesson on how a better designed program might have helped more left-behind places. But what Wessel reveals is the gritty reality: The dark underbelly of a system tilted in favor of the few, with the many left out in the cold</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。

<p>HARRY SYMES LEHR was born in 1869 into a family that was neither wealthy nor socially prominent. His natural gift for entertaining and his penchant for hobnobbing with the very rich earned him entry to the powerful circle of the New York and Newport social elite, where Harry clowned his way to a position of prominence.

They were soon married.<br /> But King Lehr had a secretーhe was not what he seemed. On their wedding night he cruelly dictated the rules of their strange relationship to his new bride. For twenty-three years, Mrs. Lehr protected his secret and remained in a loveless and abusive marriage.<br /> After Harry's death Elizabeth remarried, to the Baron Decies. Lady Decies wrote down her secret story in 1938, incorporating Harry's most intimate diaries, and told all in this scandalous tale of power, desire, and deception.</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。

Sir Dominick Ferrand Exploring Human Relationships in the Gilded Age: A Literary Masterpiece by a 19th-century Author【電子書籍】[ Henry James ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Sir Dominick Ferrand," Henry James crafts a subtle yet incisive exploration of societal norms and individual morality set against the backdrop of 19th-century Europe. The novella is characterized by James's signature style, which deftly blends psychological insight with social commentary, inviting readers to navigate the complexities of human relationships and ethical dilemmas. With carefully constructed prose and a keen focus on character development, James delves into the themes of ambition, wealth, and social standing, raising questions about the cost of success and the nature of integrity. Henry James, an American expatriate, is widely regarded as one of the foremost figures in literary modernism. His experiences living in Europe and his engagement with the cultural and social dynamics of both American and European societies deeply inform his writing. In creating Ferrand, James likely sought to critique and analyze the moral implications of ambition and the intricate workings of human psychology, reflecting his own struggles with identity and belonging. For readers captivated by nuanced character studies and the intricacies of human motivations, "Sir Dominick Ferrand" is a compelling read. James's mastery of language and ability to elicit the moral undercurrents of his characters will engage those seeking to understand the personal conflicts inherent in the pursuit of social standing.</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。

Food in the Gilded Age What Ordinary Americans Ate【電子書籍】[ Robert Dirks ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The Gilded Age is renowned for a variety of reasons, including its culture of conspicuous consumption among the newly rich. In the domain of food, conspicuous consumption manifested itself in appetites for expensive dishes and lavish dinner parties. These received ample publicity at the time, resulting later on in well-developed historical depictions of upper-class eating habits.</p> <p>This book delves into the eating habits of people of lesser means. Concerning the African American community, the working class, the impoverished, immigrants, and others our historical representations have been relatively superficial. The author changes that by turning to the late nineteenth century’s infant science of nutrition for a look at eating and drinking through the lens of the earliest food consumption studies conducted in the United States. These were undertaken by scientists, mostly chemists, who left their laboratories to observe food consumption in kitchens, dining rooms, and various institutional settings. Their insistence on careful measurement resulted in a substantial body of detailed reports on the eating habits of ordinary people. This work sheds new light on what most Americans were cooking and eating during the Gilded Age.</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。

Making Catholic America Religious Nationalism in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era【電子書籍】[ William S. Cossen ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>In</strong> <em><strong>Making Catholic America</strong></em>**, William S. Cossen shows how Catholic men and women worked to prove themselves to be model American citizens in the decades between the Civil War and the Great Depression.** Far from being outsiders in American history, Catholics took command of public life in the early twentieth century, claiming leadership in the growing American nation. They produced their own version of American history and claimed the power to remake the nation in their own image, arguing that they were the country's most faithful supporters of freedom and liberty and that their church had birthed American independence. <em>Making Catholic America</em> offers a new interpretation of American life in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era, demonstrating the surprising success of an often-embattled religious group in securing for itself a place in the national community and in profoundly altering what it meant to be an American in the modern world.</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。

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Athalie," Robert W. Chambers crafts a compelling narrative that intricately weaves themes of love, loss, and identity within a richly atmospheric setting. The novella, written in Chambers' signature lyrical style, resonates with the romanticism of the late 19th century, where the beauty of nature and the complexities of human emotion collide.

Through the character of Athalie, Chambers explores the depths of longing and the consuming nature of passion, inviting a contemplative reflection on the ephemeral nature of love and the enduring scars it leaves behind.

The Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Mark Twain ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This book was not written for private circulation among friends; it was not written to cheer and instruct a diseased relative of the author's; it was not thrown off during intervals of wearing labor to amuse an idle hour. It was not written for any of these reasons, and therefore it is submitted without the usual apologies. It will be seen that it deals with an entirely ideal state of society; and the chief embarrassment of the writers in this realm of the imagination has been the want of illustrative examples. In a State where there is no fever of speculation, no inflamed desire for sudden wealth, where the poor are all simpleーminded and contented, and the rich are all honest and generous, where society is in a condition of primitive purity and politics is the occupation of only the capable and the patriotic, there are necessarily no materials for such a history as we have constructed out of an ideal commonwealth. No apology is needed for following the learned custom of placing attractive scraps of literature at the heads of our chapters. It has been truly observed by Wagner that such headings, with their vague suggestions of the matter which is to follow them, pleasantly inflame the reader's interest without wholly satisfying his curiosity, and we will hope that it may be found to be so in the present case. Our quotations are set in a vast number of tongues; this is done for the reason that very few foreign nations among whom the book will circulate can read in any language but their own; whereas we do not write for a particular class or sect or nation, but to take in the whole world</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。

Arming the World American Gun-Makers in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Geoffrey S. Stewart ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Arming the World tells the story of the American small arms industry from the early 1800’s through the post-Civil War era. Almost from the beginning, the United States produced arms in new, and radically different, ways, relying upon machinery to mass produce guns when others still made them by hand. Leveraging their technological advantage, American gun-makers produced guns with interchangeable parts and perfected new types of small arms, ranging from revolvers to repeating rifles.</p> <p>The federal government’s staggering purchases of arms during the Civil War stimulated the development of fast-firing breech-loading rifles and metal-cased ammunition. When, in 1865, it became clear that every country in the world had re-equip itself with modern weapons, the Americans had an overwhelming head start. Salesmen from Remington, Winchester, Colt and Smith & Wesson --- and from lesser-known firms, too ? traveled the world marketing their guns, dominating ? or, perhaps, even inventing ? the international arms business. American gun-makers sold rifles and side-arms by the millions and cartridges by the billions to great powers, restive colonies and fading empires alike. Adding a new element to the unstable global balance of power, American gun-makers affected the course of history.</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。

The Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Mark twain ]

<p>The only book that Mark Twain ever wrote in collaboration with another author, The Gilded Age is a novel that viciously and hilariously satirizes the greed, materialism, and corruption that characterized much of upper-class America in the nineteenth century. The title term ー inspired by a line in Shakespeare's King John ー has become synonymous with the excess of the 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。

Unequal Democracy The Political Economy of the New Gilded Age - Second Edition【電子書籍】[ Larry M. Bartels ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>An acclaimed examination of how the American political system favors the wealthyーnow fully revised and expanded</strong></p> <p>The first edition of <em>Unequal Democracy</em> was an instant classic, shattering illusions about American democracy and spurring scholarly and popular interest in the political causes and consequences of escalating economic inequality. This revised, updated, and expanded second edition includes two new chapters on the political economy of the Obama era. One presents the Great Recession as a "stress test" of the American political system by analyzing the 2008 election and the impact of Barack Obama's "New New Deal" on the economic fortunes of the rich, middle class, and poor. The other assesses the politics of inequality in the wake of the Occupy Wall Street movement, the 2012 election, and the partisan gridlock of Obama’s second term. Larry Bartels offers a sobering account of the barriers to change posed by partisan ideologies and the political power of the wealthy. He also provides new analyses of tax policy, partisan differences in economic performance, the struggle to raise the minimum wage, and inequalities in congressional representation.</p> <p>President Obama identified inequality as "the defining challenge of our time." <em>Unequal Democracy</em> is the definitive account of how and why our political system has failed to rise to that challenge. Now more than ever, this is a book every American needs to read.</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。
