Victorian Disharmonies PDF By:Francesco Marroni Published on 2010 by University of Delaware Press This study presents a new approach to the canon of nineteenth-century English fiction by defining the ideological framework within which some of the most controversial novelists of the Victorian period inscribed their imaginative responses to a changing society and its social unrest. The book posits a radical re-visioning of such authors as Dickens, Collins, Gaskell, Gissing, and Hardy by adopting the notion of disharmony as a common thematic thread of their fictional production. While the establishment invoked moral order and social harmony, their novels and short stories configured a world beset by conflicting drives and ethical aporias. What is represented in novels like A Tale of Two Cities, The Whirlpool, and Jude the Obscure is not only a society often on the verge of collapse, but also exemplary stories in which identities are disintegrated and individual destinies are caught up in ...

Graveyard Clay PDF By:Máirtín Ó Cadhain Published on 2016-03-28 by Yale University Press In critical opinion and popular polls, Máirtín Ó Cadhain’s Graveyard Clay is invariably ranked the most important prose work in modern Irish. This bold new translation of his radically original Cré na Cille is the shared project of two fluent speakers of the Irish of Ó Cadhain’s native region, Liam Mac Con Iomaire and Tim Robinson. They have achieved a lofty goal: to convey Ó Cadhain’s meaning accurately and to meet his towering literary standards. Graveyard Clay is a novel of black humor, reminiscent of the work of Synge and Beckett. The story unfolds entirely in dialogue as the newly dead arrive in the graveyard, bringing news of recent local happenings to those already confined in their coffins. Avalanches of gossip, backbiting, flirting, feuds, and scandal-mongering ensue, while the absurdity of human nature becomes ever clearer. This edition of Ó Cadhain’s masterpiece is enriched with footnote...

The Old Devils PDF By:Kingsley Amis Published on 2012-10-02 by New York Review of Books Age has done everything except mellow the characters in Kingsley Amis’s The Old Devils, which turns its humane and ironic gaze on a group of Welsh married couples who have been spending their golden years—when “all of a sudden the evening starts starting after breakfast”—nattering, complaining, reminiscing, and, above all, drinking. This more or less orderly social world is thrown off-kilter, however, when two old friends unexpectedly return from England: Alun Weaver, now a celebrated man of Welsh letters, and his entrancing wife, Rhiannon. Long-dormant rivalries and romances are rudely awakened, as life at the Bible and Crown, the local pub, is changed irrevocably. Considered by Martin Amis to be Kingsley Amis’s greatest achievement—a book that “stands comparison with any English novel of the [twentieth] century”—The Old Devils confronts the attrition of ageing with rare candor, sympathy, and moral...

Blown to Bits PDF By:Harold Abelson,Ken Ledeen,Harry R. Lewis Published on 2008 by Addison-Wesley Professional Every day, billions of photographs, news stories, songs, X-rays, TV shows, phone calls, and emails are being scattered around the world as sequences of zeroes and ones: bits. We can't escape this explosion of digital information and few of us want to-the benefits are too seductive. The technology has enabled unprecedented innovation, collaboration, entertainment, and democratic participation. But the same engineering marvels are shattering centuries-old assumptions about privacy, identity, free expression, and personal control as more and more details of our lives are captured as digital data. Can you control who sees all that personal information about you? Can email be truly confidential, when nothing seems to be private? Shouldn't the Internet be censored the way radio and TV are? is it really a federal crime to download music? When you use Google or Yahoo! to searc...

How many will there be? And who will have them? As technology continues to accelerate and machines begin taking care of themselves, fewer people will be necessary. Artificial intelligence is already well on its way to making |good jobs| obsolete: many paralegals, journalists, office workers, and even computer programmers are poised to be replaced by robots and smart software. As progress continues, blue and white collar jobs alike will evaporate, squeezing working- and middle-class families ever further. At the same time, households are under assault from exploding costs, especially from the two major industries-education and health care-that, so far, have not been transformed by i...

Wildlife Production Systems PDF - How To Download

Wildlife Production Systems PDF By:Robert J. Hudson,K. R. Drew,L. M. Baskin Published on 1989-06 by CUP Archive This book, first published in 1989, examines the controversial position of commercial utilisation in relation to wildlife conservation. Production of large mammals has earned respectability as an agricultural strategy and its evaluation has been listed as a priority requirement in the World Conservation Strategy. However, many authorities question whether wildlife production is a viable economic and environmental strategy, and suggest that it runs counter to its claimed purpose. This book evaluates this controversy by chronicling the changing role of wildlife and by reflecting on the implications of these trends. The book should be of interest to people both applauding and deploring the use of wildlife in this economic role. This Book was ranked at 40 by Google Books for keyword Industries Agriculture novel.

The Intuitive Farmer PDF - How To Download

The Intuitive Farmer PDF By:Peter Nuthall Published on 2016-01-16 by Successful farm management is based upon excellent decision making by the farm owner. In practice most decisions are made intuitively rather than the result of careful data collection and analysis, or analysing others' views and associated factors. Thus the farmer's intuitive decisions have a major impact on the business practices, efficiency, profitability and success of the farm. In the form of a character driven novel the author guides the reader through a series of lessons for farmers to improve their intuitive decision making. The story follows Ben, a New Zealand farmer, as an important member of a discussion group. The experimental programme is set up by a management researcher, Tom, to explore the best way to improve farmers' intuition. The farmer group has different characters in different situations each one of which leads to interesting dilemmas and lessons. Each chapter addresses a different iss...

Вампиры PDF By:Б. Олшеври Published on 2014-03-03 by Aegitas Книга таинственного автора Б.Олшеври «Вампиры», хотя и имеет ссылку на хронику графов Дракула-Карди, на самом деле не имеет никакого отношения к одноименному роману Брема Стокера и ни разу не выходила на английском языке, хотя ей уже свыше 100 лет. Ее приписывают неизвестному русскому автору и полагают, что она была написана одним из первых переводчиков романа Стокера на русский язык. Однако это как раз тот случай, когда копия оказалась не хуже оригинала. Превосходный стиль и слог, живая интрига. нарастающее напряжение и тревожный финал - все это сделало книгу запоминающейся настолько, что она пережила и 70 лет забвения в период господства в нашей стране литературы «социалистическоьго реализма» и конкуренцию с валом зарубежных вампирских романов и ряд доморощенных творений современных авторов.
