楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 'Quer durch Patagonien' entf?hrt Florence Dixie die Leserschaft in eine Zeit der Entdeckung und des Abenteuers im Herzen S?damerikas. Dieses Werk, das gleicherma?en Reisetagebuch wie auch scharfsinnige kulturelle Studie ist, unterstreicht Dixies bemerkenswertes Talent, die rauhen Landschaften und die komplexen sozialen Strukturen Patagoniens mit einem federleichten, doch pr?zisen literarischen Stil einzufangen. Der Text ist nicht nur wegen seiner detaillierten Beschreibungen von Flora und Fauna von Interesse, sondern auch aufgrund der Einblicke in die Lebensweisen der einheimischen Bev?lkerung w?hrend der sp?ten neunzehnten Jahrhunderts - ein bedeutender literarischer Beitrag zur ethnografischen und geografischen Forschung jener Zeit. Als Aristokratin, Abenteurerin und leidenschaftliche Verfechterin f?r Frauenrechte brachte Florence Dixie eine einzigartige Perspektive in ihre Schriften. Ihr unkonventionelles Leben und ihr Engagement f?r das Unbekannte und Misverstandene leiteten sie nach Patagonien, dessen Erkundung sie als eine der wenigen Frauen ihrer Zeit unternahm. Dieses Buch ist somit nicht nur eine Darstellung geografischer Entdeckungen, sondern auch ein Zeugnis f?r den Mut und die Entschlossenheit einer Frau, die weit ?ber die Grenzen ihres gesellschaftlich vorgezeichneten Lebens hinaussah. F?r Leserinnen und Leser, die sich f?r Geschichte, Geografie und die Dynamiken der Geschlechterrollen im Kontext der Erkundung und des Abenteuers interessieren, bietet 'Quer durch Patagonien' eine fesselnde Lekt?re.

Across Patagonia【電子書籍】[ Lady Florence Dixie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Across Patagonia is a travel narrative written by Lady Florence Dixie, Scottish writer and feminist. She left her aristocratic life and her children behind in England, and set out to travel, accompanied by her two brothers, her husband, and a family friend who served as a guide. Dixie debated going elsewhere, but chose Patagonia because few Europeans had ever set foot there. Dixie paints a picture of the landscape using techniques reminiscent of the Romantic tradition of William Wordsworth and others, using emotion and physical sensation to connect to the natural world. While she describes the land as "uninviting and feared territory," Dixie's actions demonstrate that survival in a wild land requires both strength and agency. During her travels in Patagonia, Dixie is "active, hardy, and resilient", rejecting Victorian gender constructs that depicted women as weak and in need of protection.</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。 300円

Across Patagonia【電子書籍】[ Florence Caroline Dixie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Weary of her life in English society, during 1878?1879 Dixie travelled with her husband, two of her brothers and Julius Beerbohm in Patagonia in South America. There, she hunted big game and ate it with gusto. On one occasion, while riding on the prairie, her party was overtaken by a huge prairie fire, and her horse bolted with her. On her return to England, Dixie wrote her book Across Patagonia, which discussed Dixie’s observations of the country and its inhabitants. Lady Dixie also shared her observations of Patagonia with Charles Darwin. Lady Dixie sent Darwin a copy of Across Patagonia; Darwin's copy of this book is part of the Library of Charles Darwin located in the Rare Books Room of Cambridge University Library. A hotel at Puerto Natales in the Chilean part of Patagonia is named the Hotel Lady Florence Dixie in her honour.</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。 644円

Hollywood, California Travel Guide - What To See & Do【電子書籍】[ Katherine Dixon ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>  </p> <p> Our illustrated travel guide will take you to Hollywood, California.</p> <p> No trip to Los Angeles is complete without a visit to its most famous district: Hollywood [1], best known as the self-declared entertainment capital of the world.</p> <p> A business and residential district in the city of Los Angeles, the core of Hollywood for a tourist is its three fascinating boulevards: Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood Boulevard, and Melrose Avenue. All three are worth seeing. Hollywood Blvd. is known for its entertainment history; Sunset Blvd. for its clubs and nightlife; and Melrose Ave. for its shopping, nightlife, and eclecticism.</p> <p> Hollywood was founded as an independent city in 1903 and voted to merge with the City of Los Angeles in 1910. That same year also saw the birth of the Southern California motion picture industry when D. W. Griffith relocated his Biograph Company, sparking a westward migration of East Coast filmmakers. As movies exploded in popularity in the 1910s and '20s, the name Hollywood became synonymous with "the Industry." In the decades following World War II, Hollywood's glitz and glamour began to fade as most of the leading film studios moved to other places.</p> <p> Finding Internet access when out and about can be problematic so carry your mobile guidebook in the palm of your hand.

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Our illustrated travel guide will take you to Disneyland, California.</p> <p>The Disneyland Resort is located in Anaheim, California. It is home to the original Disneyland Park, which opened on July 18, 1955, a favorite among visitors to Southern California from all over the world for well over half a century. It was joined in 2001 by a sister park, Disney California Adventure, which is a stylized recreation and celebration of California's rich history and culture.</p> <p>Walt Disney himself once said, "Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world." True to Walt's vision, the Disneyland of today is very different from the way it was half a century ago.</p> <p>The Disneyland Resort is divided into two separate theme parks, three hotels, and a shopping and entertainment district. At the western end of the entry plaza is Downtown Disney, the shopping and entertainment district. The three hotels are located at the west end of Downtown Disney.</p> <p>Disneyland's rides are generally considered clazzic well-themed dark rides (e.g. Pirates of the Caribbean) with the occasional thrill ride (e.g. Space Mountain), while California Adventure's rides are more thrill-oriented (e.g. California Screamin') with some some family-style rides (e.g. Soarin' Over California). The Cast Members (employees) in all sections of the park are widely known to be very friendly and helpful. The attention to detail throughout the parks is extraordinary.</p> <p>Finding Internet access when out and about can be problematic so carry your mobile guidebook in the palm of your hand.
