＜p＞Within A Budding Grove, the second volume of Marcel Proust's monumental masterpiece, In Search of Lost Time, intricately explores the themes of memory, time, and the nature of art through a richly woven narrative style that blends introspective prose with vivid imagery. Proust employs a stream-of-consciousness technique, allowing characters'?? thoughts and feelings to intertwine in a manner that reflects the fluidity of human experience. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century French society, the novel delves into the complexities of adolescence, desire, and the ephemeral nature of beauty, revealing the protagonist's evolving understanding of love and existence as he navigates the intricacies of social life and artistic ambition. Marcel Proust, a notable figure in French literature, was deeply influenced by his own experiences of love, loss, and sociocultural dynamics, which drive the thematic explorations in this work. His personal struggles with illness and a restless search for meaning transformed his reflections on the passage of time into profound literary observations. This novel exemplifies Proust's belief in the close interplay between recollection and self-discovery, rendered with precision and lyrical beauty. For readers intrigued by the intersections of memory, identity, and society, Within A Budding Grove is essential. This volume invites a deep engagement with its lyrical prose and richly textured characters, ultimately offering insights into universal human experiences. Proust's work challenges us to confront the past, prompting reflection on our own lives and the fleeting moments that shape our identities.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Willa Cather's "A Lost Lady" is a poignant exploration of changing landscapes and the complexities of human relationships set against the backdrop of the early 20th-century American West. Employing a lyrical yet incisive prose style, Cather delves into themes of nostalgia, loss, and the passage of time, encapsulating the tensions between traditional values and the inexorable march of modernity.

＜p＞In 'Swann's Way', the inaugural volume of Proust's monumental seven-part series 'In Search of Lost Time', the narrative unfolds through a rich tapestry of memory, time, and desire. Proust employs a stream-of-consciousness style that intricately depicts the protagonist's introspections and associations, blending tender recollections with philosophical musings. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century French society, the novel explores themes of love, art, and social ambition, primarily through the lens of Charles Swann's unrequited love for Odette de Cr√?cy, establishing a profound exploration of the complexities of human emotion and perception. Marcel Proust, a key figure in early 20th-century literature, was deeply influenced by his own life experiences, particularly his reflections on memory and the passage of time. His upbringing in bourgeois Parisian society and struggles with illness informed his exploration of existential questions in his writing. 'Swann's Way' draws from his personal encounters and relationships, serving as a polished gem that illuminates the intricacies of both intimate and societal connections. Readers seeking a profound, introspective journey into the labyrinth of memory and identity will find 'Swann's Way' an indispensable exploration.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Tale of Genji【電子書籍】[ Murasaki Shikibu ]

＜p＞READERS of the Diaries of Court Ladies of Old Japan, translated by Madame Omori and Professor Doi, will remember that the second of the three diaries is that of a certain Murasaki Shikibu. The little that is known of this lady’s life has been set forth by Miss Amy Lowell in her Introduction to that book. A few dates, most of them very insecure, will be found in Appendix I of this volume. It is, however, certain that Murasaki was born in the last quarter of the tenth century, that she lost her husband in 1001, and that a few years later she became lady-in-waiting to the Empress Akiko. We know that she was chosen for this post on account of her proficiency in Chinese, a subject which the young Empress was anxious to study. Akiko was then about sixteen, so that Murasaki’s position in the house was what, in our parlance, we should call that of ‘governess’ rather than of lady-in-waiting. Akiko, though officially espoused to the Emperor, was still living at home, and her father soon began to pay somewhat embarrassing attentions to the new governess. From the Diary we know that on one occasion at any rate his solicitations were refused. Was the Tale of Genji or any part of it already written when Murasaki came to Court? We only know that in a passage of the Diary which apparently refers to the year 1008 she speaks of her novel having been read out loud to the Emperor. His majesty’s comment (‘This is a learned lady; she must have been reading the Chronicle of Japan’) shows that what was read to him must have been the opening chapter of the tale. For in the whole work there is only one sentence which could possibly remind any one of the Nihongi (‘Chronicle of Japan’), and that is the conclusion of Chapter I. So though we may be certain that the first few books were already written in 1008, it is quite possible that the whole fifty-four were not finished till long afterwards. But from the Sarashina Diary, the first of the three contained in the Court Ladies of Old Japan, we know that the Tale of Genji in its complete form was already a classic in the year 1022. The unknown authoress of this diary spent her childhood in a remote province. Her great pleasure was to read romances; but except at the Capital they were hard to come by. She prays fervently to Buddha to bring her quickly to Kyoto, and let her read ‘dozens and dozens of stories.’ In 1022 she at last arrives at Court and her wildest dreams are fulfilled. Packed in a big box her aunt sends round ‘the fifty-odd chapters of Genji’ and a whole library of shorter fairy-tales and romances. ‘Are there really such people as this in the world? Were Genji my lover, though he should come to me but once in the whole year, how happy I should be! Or were I Lady Ukifune in her mountain home, gazing as the months go by at flowers, red autumn leaves, moonlight and snow; happy, despite loneliness and misfortune, in the thought that at any moment the wonderful letter might come....’ Such were the r?veries of one who read the Tale of Genji more than nine hundred years ago. I think that, could they but read it in the original, few readers would feel that in all those centuries the charm of the book had in any way evaporated. The task of translation in such a case is bound to be arduous and discouraging; but I have all the time been spurred by the belief that I am translating by far the greatest novel of the East, and one which, even if compared with the fiction of Europe, takes its place as one of the dozen greatest masterpieces of the world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Somewhere over the passing years and changing culture, women have lost their way. This book is written to lead them back home. Regardless of how you began your marriage or how dark and lonely the path that has brought you to where you are now, I want you to know that it is possible today to have a marriage so good and so fulfilling that it can only be explained as a miracle. It took four years, thousands of hours, many tears, revisions and distractions, but I finally finished my book. I had no idea God had so much to say to us ladies until I began going through God's Word verse by verse, writing the different sections of Created to Be His Help Meet. Many times as I read a passage, I would say to my husband, “I'm not going to include those verses in my book because if I do the ladies (of any religious group you can think of including my own) will not like my book or promote it.” My dear husband would say to me, “If God thought it was important enough to inspire it as part of his Word to us, then you should include it.” And so I would cringe and add one more controversial subject after another. So in obedience with Titus 2, where God commands the aged women to teach the younger women, I have obeyed and given you the very best I can do ? 27 chapters, 296 pages, including letters from my readers, recounting counseling sessions, wisdom gleaned from my daughters, my own very personal stories, and, of course, the Word of God.

＜p＞In this coming of age story, set in the Yukon of the year 1850: fur trapper and orphan he raised come face to face with the transformative dimensions of their relationship, from tragedies through time’s passage. Escaping the world of his past, Dancy Ruelaix ventured into the solitude of wilderness. Wanting to evade opening his heart to another human being, he always thought he never needed anyone. But, there was one person who could not live without him. Her name was Lyla Strauss. A season of change comes in “The Lost Winter of Lyla Strauss”.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Both trappers did the best they could in saving Coulton’s right foot, as the probability of him losing it was a likely conclusion beyond blooded strips of white cloth and an improvised splint along the length of his leg.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Delirium wafted over the stranger, as bouts of excruciating pain and slim swaths of lucidity encapsulated this human being for almost a month. Person nursing him back to some semblance of viability relied mostly on tinctures and potions from Ravenswood, a shamanic healer from the Inuit tribe.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hollister’s condition was touch and go as he drifted into a coma during the middle of October and was given a spiritual ceremony of finality by Ravenswood.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As one of the trappers stayed inside the cabin around the clock keeping watch over Coulton for the next seven days the other stayed the course of collecting, cleaning and curing pelts for the future winter months to come.＜/p＞ ＜p＞To normalize Coulton Hollister’s temperature since his rescue in September, a bed had been placed in the front room of the cabin where the fireplace was located.＜/p＞ ＜p＞On the morning of the seventh day of that vigil, sun beamed through an almost sheer piece of fabric on the side window of the cabin and a man awakened once more.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Coulton’s eyes slowly opened, as a blazing flash of sunlight filled the cabin and he got a first glimpse of life back among the living.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Beneath a cocooning layer of varied blankets, cloths and fur swaths, this wounded man’s arms slowly pushed them to one side of the bed as his eyes grasped for some sight which was familiar to him.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Focusing first upon his beard which had become overgrown, Coulton’s eyes slowly began to blink and take in a pleasant view.＜br /＞ Across the room from where he was, a nude female of slight form sat on the edge of another bed, brushing long, brown hair with her back situated to him.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In an awakened presence of the angel who he had thought was sent to watch over him Coulton Hollister thought this young waif of only 13 or 14 years of age had been the daughter of the trappers who’d recovered him from the base of that ravine.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Focusing his eyes upon this nude female, he realized she was more mature than being of teen years.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Sweet Cheat Gone In Search of Lost Time Series【電子書籍】[ Marcel Proust ]

＜p＞In "The Sweet Cheat Gone," Marcel Proust delves into the intricacies of memory, desire, and the ephemeral nature of time, characteristic of his monumental work "In Search of Lost Time." This novel employs a rich, introspective narrative style underpinned by intricate psychological observations and vivid imagery, reflecting Proust's unique ability to intertwine personal experience with universal themes. As part of his larger exploration, the book captures the fleeting moments of beauty and the elusive nature of relationships, provoking profound reflections on love and loss against the canvas of early 20th-century French society. Marcel Proust, a prominent figure in literary modernism, was deeply influenced by his own life experiences and social milieu. His aristocratic background and struggles with identity and anxiety led him to interrogate the nature of existence and the complexities of human emotions. "The Sweet Cheat Gone" serves not just as a narrative but an introspective journey echoing Proust's contemplation of time's relentless march and the bittersweet nature of nostalgia, drawing from his own tumultuous relationships and experiences. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in profound explorations of memory and identity. Proust's eloquent prose and deep psychological insight provide a captivating experience for those seeking to engage with the intricacies of the self and the passage of time, making it an essential read for any literary enthusiast.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞In our desperate attempt to stay young forever we have achieved eternal childishness, rather than eternal youth. Mankind has gradually become Pankind.＜/p＞ ＜p＞We live in an adolescent society, Neverland, where never growing up seems more the norm than the exception. Little boys wearing expensive suits and adult bodies should not be allowed to run big corporations. They shouldn’t be allowed to run small businesses, governments, armies, religions either. Mankind has become Pankind and whilst “lost boys” abound, there is also an alarming increase in the number of “lost girls.＜/p＞ ＜p＞It is time for us to Leave Neverland, for our sake, for our children's sake, ffs (for our future's sake). We need to hold perpetual boys responsible for their actions even when they run corporations that have an economic output larger than most countries. We need to start to grow up. It is actually that simple. The difficulty of course, is that growing up is much easier said than done. The author successfully avoided growing up for 32 years. Fortunately contemporary, community based Rites of Passage offer us all a timely solution to the growing up conundrum and a way out of Neverland.＜/p＞ ＜p＞"An insightful depiction of the dangers of leaving perpetual ‘boys’ in positions of power.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】True Love: A Story of English Domestic Life【電子書籍】[ Sarah E. Farro ]

＜p＞A FINE old door of oak, a heavy door standing deep within a portico inside of which you might have driven a coach, brings you to the residence of Mrs. Brewster. The hall was dark and small, the only light admitted to it being from windows of stained glass; numberless passages branched off from the hall, one peculiarity being that you could scarcely enter a single room in it but you must first go down a passage, short or long, to get to it; had the house been designed by an architect with a head upon his shoulders and a little common sense within it, he might have made a respectable house to say the least; as it was, the rooms were cramped and narrow, cornered and confined, and the good space was taken up by these worthless passages; a plat of ground before it was crowded with flowers, far too crowded for good taste, as the old gardener would point out to her, but Mrs. Brewster loved flowers and would not part with one of them. Being the daughter of a carpenter and the wife of a merchant tailor, she had scrambled through life amidst bustle and poverty, moving from one house to another, never settled anywhere for long. It was an existence not to be envied, although it is the lot of many. She was Mrs. Brewster and her husband was not a very good husband to her; he was rather too fond of amusing himself, and threw all the care upon her shoulders; she spent her time nursing her sickly children and endeavouring to make one dollar go as far as two. One day, to her unspeakable embarrassment, she found herself changed from a poor woman in moderate circumstances to an heiress to a certain degree, her father having received a legacy from a relative, and upon his death it was willed to her. She had much sorrow, having lost one child after another, until she had but two left. Then she lost her husband and father; then settled at Bellville near her husband’s native place, upon her limited means. All she possessed was the interest upon this sum her father had left her, the whole not exceeding 2,000. She had two daughters, Mary Ann and Janey; the contrast between them was great, you could see it most remarkably as they sat together, and her love for them was as contrasted as light is with darkness. Mary Ann she regarded with an inordinate affection amounting almost to a passion; for Janey she did not care; what could be the reason of this; what is the reason that parents, many such may be found, will love some of their children and dislike others they cannot tell any more than she could; ask them and they will be unable to give you an answer. It does not lie in the children; it often happens that those obtaining the least love will be the most deserving of it. Such was the case here. Mary Ann Brewster was a pale, sickly, fretful girl, full of whims, full of complaints, giving trouble to everybody about her. Janey, with her sweet countenance and her merry heart, made the sunshine of her home; she bore with her sister’s exacting moods, she bore with her mother’s want of love, she loved them both and waited on them, and carrolled forth her snatches of song as she moved around the house, and was as happy as the day was long. Ask the servantsーthey kept only twoーand they would tell you that Mrs. Brewster was cross and selfish, but Miss Janey was worth her weight in gold; the gold was soon to be transplanted to a home where it would be appreciated and cherished, for Janey was the affianced wife of Charles Taylor. For nearly a mile beyond Bellville lived Charles Taylor, a quiet, refined gentleman, and the son of a wealthy capitalist; his father had not only made a fortune of his own, but had several bestowed upon him; he had died several years before this time, and his wife survived him one year. There were three sisters, a cousin and two servants that had lived in this family for a number of years.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Their trip retraced a mythical route flown by their father, Tom Buck, a brash, colorful ex-barnstormer who had lost a leg in a tragic air crash before his sons were born, but who so loved the adventure of flight that he taught his boys to fly before they could drive. Along the way, the brothers would battle thunderstorms and wracking turbulence and encounter cowboys and crop dusters and the smalltown cafes, cheap motels, and dusty landing strips of pre-Vietnam America. These two young men must separate from their difficult, quirky fatherーliterally by putting a country’s distance between themーbut they do it on their father’s terms: in an airplane.＜/p＞ ＜p＞“This is more than a flying adventureーit is also a warm, affectionate account of an unusual family.” ー＜em＞The Newark Star-Ledger＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“Colorful, exhilarating, heart-stirring.” ー＜em＞Booklist＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“[An] enchanting story [with] masterly insider descriptions of flight.” ー＜em＞Kirkus Reviews＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“An adventure full of fraternal jealousy . . . boneheaded hubris, and unbridled fun and freedom.” ー＜em＞The Boston Globe＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞“A funny, cocky gem of a book.” ー＜em＞The New Yorker＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Includes photographs＜/em＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞Prohibition Years＜/em＞ examines the period from 1920 to 1933 when the Eighteenth Amendment outlawed alcohol in the United States. This era, intended to curb societal ills through social reform, unexpectedly fueled organized crime and economic disruptions. The book argues that Prohibition's negative consequences, such as the rise of speakeasies and bootlegging, outweighed its benefits.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The book dissects how the temperance movement led to the law's passage and then explores its impact on three key areas: the explosion of organized crime, the disruption of the American economy due to lost tax revenue, and the challenges faced by law enforcement. Interestingly, the ban led to a surge in unregulated alcohol production, creating public health issues, and also fostered unprecedented levels of corruption.＜/p＞ ＜p＞By exploring these interwoven challenges, the book offers a comprehensive view of a unique period in US history. Beginning with the historical context, ＜em＞Prohibition Years＜/em＞ progresses through the rise of criminal syndicates and economic impacts, culminating in an analysis of the repeal and its lasting legacy. It uses a range of sources, from government documents to personal memoirs, to support its arguments, offering an insightful look at the complexities of legislating morality.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
