Book Description
William Morris never tired of defending the Paris Commune and glorifying its memory. To him it was the highest point yet reached in the workers' struggle, and it was next to inevitable that he should turn to it when seeking a theme for a socialist poem. The Pilgrims of Hope resembles all his long poems in its heroic character. Alongside an introduction and notes on the poem by Michael Rosen this volume contains the essay, Why We Celebrate the Paris Commune by William Morris and as an afterword the introduction by Frederick Engels to the twentieth anniversary publication of Marx's The Civil War in France.

Cultural Politics at the Fin de Siècle
Author: Sally Ledger
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521484992
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Cultural Politics at the Fin de Siècle scrutinises ways in which current conflicts of 'race', class, and gender have their origins in the cultural politics of the last fin de siècle, whose influence stretched from the 1890s, when economic depression signalled the end of Britain's role as 'the workshop of the world', to 1914 when world war accelerated imperial decline. This collaborative venture by new and established scholars includes discussion of the 'New Woman', the reconstruction of masculinities, and of feminism and empire. The imperialist theme is pursued in essays on Yeats and Ireland, Gilbert and Sullivan, and the figure of the vampire. The rise of socialism and psychoanalysis, and the relationship between nascent modernism and late twentieth-century postmodernism are also addressed in this radical account.

ISBN: 1616717882
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
As we prepare to celebrate the Jubilee Year, this short booklet invites us to explore the various ways the Mass fosters our hope in God’s promise of salvation. It is divided into five brief chapters that look at how different parts of the Mass help us along our pilgrim journey to God. This journey begins with our baptism and ends when we are welcomed into God’s heavenly kingdom. The Mass supports us as we strive to remain on God’s path by living in the hope of Christ’s salvation in a world that is troubled by suffering, division, and violence. Through our participation in the liturgy, we are brought deeper into the community of faith and hope, are formed by the Word of God to continue along our pilgrim journey, are given the source of our hope—Christ—in the Eucharist, and are sent out to share that hope with the world. As we celebrate the Pilgrims of Hope Jubilee year, this booklet enables the faithful to live in the hope of Christ’s salvation more fully. The reflection questions at the end of each chapter encourage greater participation in the liturgy and in living out Christ’s message of hope in our daily lives.

Land of Hope
Author: Wilfred M. McClay
Publisher: Encounter Books
ISBN: 1594039380
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 642
Book Description
For too long we’ve lacked a compact, inexpensive, authoritative, and compulsively readable book that offers American readers a clear, informative, and inspiring narrative account of their country. Such a fresh retelling of the American story is especially needed today, to shape and deepen young Americans’ sense of the land they inhabit, help them to understand its roots and share in its memories, all the while equipping them for the privileges and responsibilities of citizenship in American society The existing texts simply fail to tell that story with energy and conviction. Too often they reflect a fragmented outlook that fails to convey to American readers the grand trajectory of their own history. This state of affairs cannot continue for long without producing serious consequences. A great nation needs and deserves a great and coherent narrative, as an expression of its own self-understanding and its aspirations; and it needs to be able to convey that narrative to its young effectively. Of course, it goes without saying that such a narrative cannot be a fairy tale of the past. It will not be convincing if it is not truthful. But as Land of Hope brilliantly shows, there is no contradiction between a truthful account of the American past and an inspiring one. Readers of Land of Hope will find both in its pages.
