Achieving a Dream; PostscriptAnn Petry (1908-1997) achieved prominence during a period in which few black women were published with regularity in America. Her novels Country Place (1947) and The Narrows (1988), along with various short stories and nonfiction, poignantly described the struggles and triumphs of middle-class blacks living in primarily white communities. Petry's ancestors, the James family, served as in-spiration for much of her fiction. This collection of more than four hundred family letters, edited by the daughter of Ann Petry, is an engaging portrait of black family life from the 1890's to the early twentiMargaret Walker Alexander Series in African American StudiesNovelists, American20th centuryFamily relationshipsAfrican American novelistsFamily relationshipsAfrican American familiesHistorySourcesAfrican AmericansCorrespondenceElectronic books.Novelists, AmericanFamily relationships.African American novelistsFamily relationships.African American familiesHistoryAfrican Americans813/.54BPetry Elisabeth879210MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459638703321Can anything beat white1963456UNINA03234nam 22006012 450 991079461790332120151005020621.01-139-69849-41-139-86149-21-139-86491-21-139-87062-91-139-03382-41-139-86575-71-139-86276-6(CKB)4330000000000454(MiAaPQ)EBC1650925(UkCbUP)CR9781139033824(EXLCZ)99433000000000045420110225d2012|||| uy| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierPicturing reform in Victorian Britain /Janice Carlisle[electronic resource]Cambridge :Cambridge University Press,2012.1 online resource (xii, 272 pages) digital, PDF file(s)Cambridge studies in nineteenth-century literature and culture ;79Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).0-521-86836-X 1-107-47975-4 Introduction -- 1.

Within the pale -- Conclusion.How did Victorians, as creators and viewers of images, visualize the politics of franchise reform? This study of Victorian art and parliamentary politics, specifically in the 1840s and 1860s, answers that question by viewing the First and Second Reform Acts from the perspectives offered by Ruskin's political theories of art and Bagehot's visual theory of politics. Combining subjects and approaches characteristic of art history, political history, literary criticism and cultural critique, Picturing Reform in Victorian Britain treats both paintings and wood engravings, particularly those published in Punch and the Illustrated London News. Carlisle analyzes unlikely pairings - a novel by Trollope and a painting by Hayter, an engraving after Leech and a high-society portrait by Landseer - to argue that such conjunctions marked both everyday life in Victorian Britain and the nature of its visual politics as it was manifested in the myriad heterogeneous and often incongruous images of illustrated journalism.Cambridge studies in nineteenth-century literature and culture ;79.Suffrage in artPainting, VictorianGreat BritainMagazine illustrationGreat Britain19th centuryArtPolitical aspectsGreat BritainHistory19th centuryArt and societyGreat BritainHistory19th centurySuffrage in art.Painting, VictorianMagazine illustrationArtPolitical aspectsHistoryArt and societyHistory704.9/49941081LIT004120bisacshCarlisle Janice166671UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910794617903321Picturing reform in Victorian Britain3852330UNINA01185nam0 22003011i 450 UON0021865020231205103405.8014-03-96080-120030730d2003 |0itac50 baengUS|||| |||||Dealing with conflict in Africa: The United Nations and regional organizationsedited by Jane BouldenNew YorkBasingstokePalgrave MacMillan2003XIII, 325 p.22 cm.ONUInterventiStudiUONC041962FIAFRICAIntervento ONUUONC054858FIUSNew YorkUONL000050GBBasingstokeUONL001016341.5CONTROVERSIE E CONFLITTI TRA STATI / ARBITRATO21BOULDENJaneUONV149433PalgraveUONV265036650ITSOL20240220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00218650SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI IX DIR INTPUB O I 0101 SI SC 39374 5 0101 Dealing with conflict in Africa946094UNIOR
