Abstract

The Way of the Woman Writer, Second Edition continues the work of the inspirational original, offering guidance to women who wish to document their lives in writing. More a template than a how-to manual, this insightful book addresses the concerns, needs, and issues of women writers (both aspiring and experienced), concentrating on the internal process of putting thought to paper, including new chapters on the creative process and the ethics and integrity of writing. The author, Dr. Janet Lynn Roseman, offers writing exercises in women's autobiography that draw on the significant rhythms of a woman's life, utilizing visualization and meditation techniques to amplify the inner writing voice. From the author: "What strikes me in re-examining the text of this book is just how timeless the subject of chronicling women's lives is. When we pass down our stories and share them with family and friends, we provide future generations with the opportunity to not only understand the lives of each woman, but we are able to gain insight into their unique experiences." The Way of the Woman Writer, Second Edition includes new writing samples and new chapters on: “The Creative Spirit,” which presents a seven-step guide to the creative process-ritual, surrender, silence, waiting, trust, recognition, and distance “The Ethics and Integrity of Writing,” which addresses the discipline and courage a writer needs when dealing with the effects of her autobiographical “truths” on others The Way of the Woman Writer, Second Edition is an essential resource for creative writing courses, oral history courses, writer's workshops, and women's studies programs, and an invaluable guide for any woman who wishes to tell her story.

Abstract

One of the most popular poets of her time, Charlotte Smith revived the sonnet form in England, influencing Wordsworth and Keats. Equally popular as a novelist, she experimented with many genres, and even her children's books were highly regarded by her contemporaries. Charlotte Smith's letters enlarge our understanding of her literary achievement, for they show the private world of spirit, determination, anger, and sorrow in which she wrote.Despite her family's diligence in destroying her papers

Abstract

Het was een opmerkelijke advertentie, pontificaal opgenomen tussen de overlijdensberichten in de Nederlandse kranten op 26 januari 2002. 'In memoriam dr. Menno ter Braak,' stond er, 'geboren te Eibergen 26-01-1902, overleden in Den Haag 14-05-1940.' Eenvoudige, anonieme woorden die bewijzen dat Ter Braak, een van de meest toonaangevende intellectuelen van het interbellum, ruim zestig jaar na zijn overlijden nog lang niet dood is. De historicus Léon Hanssen beschreef het leven van Ter Braak enkele jaren geleden in twee veelgeroemde, vuistdikke biografieën, die hij nu heeft teruggebracht tot een beknopte handelseditie in één band. Hanssens studie is voorbeeldig, een klassiek detectiveverhaal bijna, waarvan de tragische afloop - Ter Braaks zelfmoord kort na het Duitse bombardement op Rotterdam en de daaropvolgende capitulatie van Nederland - al vaststaat, en waarin het antwoord op de vraag hoe het zo ver heeft kunnen komen hoofdstuk na hoofdstuk zorgvuldig wordt opgebouwd.
