【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 Black Carnation Enriched edition. Unraveling the Dark Secrets of a Victorian Murder Mystery【電子書籍】[ Fergus Hume ]
<p>In "The Black Carnation," Fergus Hume weaves a masterful tale of mystery and intrigue set within the opulent world of Victorian society. The narrative unfolds with the disappearance of a young woman and the subsequent unraveling of tightly held secrets, all thematically intertwined with symbolism. Hume's atmospheric prose combined with vivid characterizations and a suspenseful plot offers readers a lens into the darker facets of human desire and moral ambiguity, typical of the detective fiction genre emerging in this era. The novel, rich in Gothic elements, captures the societal tensions and the undercurrents of both humor and tragedy characteristic of Hume's style. Fergus Hume, a pioneer of detective fiction, was influenced by the burgeoning cultural milieu of late 19th-century England, where urbanization led to newfound complexities in human interactions and ethics. Hailing from New Zealand, Hume's experiences shaped his narrative voice, driving him to explore themes of justice and identity through mystery. His debut novel, "The Mystery of a Hansom Cab," paved the way for his subsequent works, including "The Black Carnation," which further solidified his status in the literary canon. I highly recommend "The Black Carnation" to readers who appreciate intricately plotted mysteries that offer both entertainment and a reflective exploration of societal norms. Hume's distinctive blend of suspense and psychological depth not only engages the reader but also prompts contemplation on the moral choices that define us. This book is essential for anyone interested in classic detective fiction or the rich tapestry of Victorian literature.

【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 Green Carnation【電子書籍】[ Robert Hichens ]
<p>The novel caused quite a sensation upon its release due to its controversial subject matter and thinly veiled references to the real-life relationship between Oscar Wilde and Lord Alfred Douglas, which was scandalous at the time. "The Green Carnation" is considered one of the earliest examples of "gay literature" in English, although it's important to note that the term "gay" did not have the same connotations at the time of publication as it does now.The story follows the lives of two young men, Esm? Amarinth and Lord Reginald Hastings, as they navigate the social and cultural landscape of late Victorian England. The green carnation becomes a symbol of their relationship and their defiance of conventional morality."The Green Carnation" is notable for its wit, satire, and social commentary, as well as its exploration of themes such as identity, sexuality, and the constraints of society. While controversial in its time, the novel is now considered an important work in the history of LGBTQ+ literature and has been studied for its insights into Victorian attitudes towards homosexuality.</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。

【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!】Black Print with a White Carnation Mildred Brown and the Omaha Star Newspaper, 1938?1989【電子書籍】[ Amy Helene Forss ]
<p>Mildred Dee Brown (1905?89) was the cofounder of Nebraska’s <em>Omaha Star</em>, the longest running black newspaper founded by an African American woman in the United States. Known for her trademark white carnation corsage, Brown was the matriarch of Omaha’s Near North Sideーa historically black part of townーand an iconic city leader. Her remarkable life, a product of the Reconstruction era and Jim Crow, reflects a larger American history that includes the Great Migration, the Red Scare of the post?World War era, civil rights and black power movements, desegregation, and urban renewal.</p> <p>Within the context of African American and women’s history studies, Amy Helene Forss’s <em>Black Print with a White Carnation</em> examines the impact of the black press through the narrative of Brown’s life and work. Forss draws on more than 150 oral histories, numerous black newspapers, and government documents to illuminate African American history during the political and social upheaval of the twentieth century. During Brown’s fifty-one-year tenure, the <em>Omaha Star</em> became a channel of communication between black and white residents of the city, as well as an arena for positive weekly news in the black community. Brown and her newspaper led successful challenges to racial discrimination, unfair employment practices, restrictive housing covenants, and a segregated public school system, placing the woman with the white carnation at the center of America’s changing racial landscape.</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>The story is a fast-paced human drama. High school is a time of innocence, a time for fun, when adolescents establish a set of values that will last a lifetime. In 1957, teens were carousing all across the country, as the 1950s were in full roar. The Bronx, New York was no different. Relive the adventures of the in crowd at St. Helenas Catholic high school as they learn the importance of friendship and the meaning of love.</p> <p>On a lark, four high school seniors celebrate an 18th birthday party in the school cafeteria. The only problems were that the school was closed for the night, and they brought along a keg of beer for the party. The nuns living three floors above, hear the commotion and think a rape is in process and phone the police, causing all Hell to break loose.</p> <p>The influence of the church and school seemed limitless. Most of the clergy served as a maturing authority to guide their students along the straight and narrow path. However, one rouge administrator had his own interpretation of the Lords missive. From this Brothers prospective, it was the principle behind the punishment that mattered. Responsible adults would be developed out of irresponsible boys. His actions and excessive punishments aimed at breaking down a select few pranksters would only serve as a rallying point to unify the student body and faculty to support the targets of his vengeance.</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。
