Book Description
"Two young Englishwomen arrive on vacation, expecting a conventional holiday. They are Charity Selborne, a extravagantly lovely war widow, and her amusing, irreverent artist friend, Louise Cray. The enchanting vista of Provence delights them, and Charity is pleased to make her first conquest, a young man of thirteen who is having trouble with his dog. The young man introduces himself and Charity is charmed ... until she senses a terrible maturity behind his grave eyes. From that point on the tension mounts steadily until it reaches breaking point, while the thirsty heat of the Provençal summer, the noise of cicadas, the dust of country roads all contribute to the superb realism of the novel.

The Confucian Four Books for Women
Author: Ann A. Pang White
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190460881
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
This volume presents the first English translation of the Confucian classics, Four Books for Women, with extensive commentary by the compiler, Wang Xiang, and introductions and annotations by translator Ann A. Pang-White. Written by women for women's education, the Confucian Four Books for Women spanned the 1st to the 16th centuries, and encompass Ban Zhao's Lessons for Women, Song Ruoxin's and Song Ruozhao's Analects for Women, Empress Renxiaowen's Teachings for the Inner Court, and Madame Liu's (Chaste Widow Wang's) Short Records of Models for Women. A female counterpart to the famous Sishu (Four Books) compiled by Zhu Xi, Wang Xiang's Nü sishu provides an invaluable look at the long-standing history and evolution of Chinese women's writing, education, identity, and philosophical discourse, along with their struggles and triumphs, across the millennia and numerous Chinese dynasties. Pang-White's new translation brings the authors of the Four Books for Women to life as real, living people, and illustrates why they wrote and how their work empowered women.
