Arlene Young is Assistant Professor in the Department of English at the University of Manitoba. The edition includes the annotated text of The Odd Women, a critical introduction, a note on the text, a George Gissing chronology, and multiple appendices of historical documents on the "woman question" and the sociology of work in the 1890s. The Gissing Journal called this edition "especially welcome" and said it "deserves to become the text of choice for teachers"; Stephen Arata of the University of Virginia praised Young's work as "the definitive guide to Gissing's novel." In Gissing's story, Virginia Madden and her two sisters are confronted upon the death of their father with sudden impoverishment. Without training for employment, and desperate to maintain middle-class respectability, they face a daunting struggle. In Rhoda Nunn, a strong feminist, Gissing presents a powerful character who draws attention overtly to the issues behind the novel. The Odd Women is one of the most important social novels of the late nineteenth century — and when it comes to the complexities of everyday life in late-Victorian London, there is no better guide than Gissing. The Broadview edition, praised as the definitive scholarly text of the novel, includes rich contextual apparatus — historical documents on women's employment, the marriage question, and the emerging feminist movement — making it the standard university course edition. A near-fine copy, completely clean and unmarked, of a heavily assigned course text in outstanding condition.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Joan Crate's much-anticipated third book of poetry is equal parts revision and reverie, offering a mid-life view of childhood influences and expectations that is stirring, startling, and wise. Deliciously invoking the iconic figure of Snow White, subUrban Legends considers what lies beyond youth and the trite promise of "happily ever after," transporting readers to a land of complexity and nuance from which few cultural officiados report. A sequence of poetic reveries that collide and collude suburban routine with subconscious fantasy. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Socrates, one of the first of the great philosophers, left no written works. What survives of his thought are second-hand descriptions of his teachings and conversationsincluding, most famously, the accounts of his trial and execution composed by his friend, student, and philosophical successor, Plato. In Euthyphro, Socrates examines the concept of piety and displays his propensity for questioning Athenian authorities. Such audacity is not without consequence, and in the Apology we find Socrates defending himself in court against charges of impiety and corruption of the youth. Crito depicts Socrates choosing to accept the resulting death sentence rather than escape Athens and avoid execution. All three dialogues are included here, as is the final scene of Phaedo, in which the sentence is carried out. Platos account of the last days of Socrates, presented in a lively new translation.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. These are not love poems. These are almost-love poems. Jittery, plaintive, and fresh, these are poems voiced through a startling variety of speakers who continually rev themselves up to the challenge of connecting with others, often to no avail. Ian Williams writes in traditional poetic forms: ghazals, a pantoum, blank sonnets, mock-heroic couplets. He also invents his own: poems that spin into indeterminacy, poems that dona€(TM)t end. With a deft hand and playful ear, Williams entices the reader to stumble alongside his characters as they search, again and again, for intimacy, for love, and for each other. The poems in Ian Williams's Personals are jittery, plaintive, and decidedly fresh. Williams pays beautiful homage to traditional poetic forms: ghazals, a pantoum, blank sonnets, mock-heroic couplets, while simultaneously showcasing his own inventiveness and linguistic dexterity through the creation of brand new forms: poems that spin into indeterminacy, poems that don't end.
