William Blake, the Man
Author: Charles Gardner
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
This book is a biography of William Blake, the English poet, painter, and printmaker who was largely unrecognized during his lifetime but is now considered a seminal figure in the history of Romantic Age art and literature. Despite being considered mad by contemporaries for his idiosyncratic views, Blake's creativity and expressiveness have made him highly regarded by later critics and readers. A committed Christian who was hostile to the Church of England, Blake was influenced by the ideals and ambitions of the French and American revolutions, making him a key early proponent of both Romanticism and Nationalism. Whether you're an art lover, a poetry enthusiast, or simply curious about the life of one of England's greatest artists, this biography is a must-read.

Aleta Dey
Author: Francis Marion Beynon
Publisher: Broadview Press
ISBN: 146040307X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 200
Book Description
Francis Marion Beynon’s autobiographical novel Aleta Dey is increasingly recognised as a small classic of early twentieth-century fiction. Beynon was a journalist and feminist much involved in public affairs in early twentieth-century Manitoba. In 1917, aged 33, she was forced to leave her job as a result of her open pacifism, and she soon moved to New York where she dropped out of the public eye. Aleta Dey, first published in 1919, tells in plain and affecting prose the story of a girl growing up in Manitoba, becoming politically conscious, and falling in love with McNair, a man of much more conventional views. The First World War brings a crisis for them both after McNair enlists as a soldier. Though Beynon was a Canadian, her spare, emotionally open prose may have less in common with that of other Canadian writers of the time than it does with the style of contemporaneous western American women writers such as Willa Cather and Laura Ingalls Wilder. Like Cather’s My Antonia, Beynon’s Aleta Dey resonates with prairie simplicity, passion, and strength.
