Diese Kurzgeschichte "Alexandra David Neels" ist die vierte in einer Reihe von Kurzgeschichten des Autors über große Frauen in der Geschichte. Die vorangegangenen Kurzgeschichten, die jetzt veröffentlicht wurden, waren: die Geschichte von Sophie (Mary) Pierce (Lady Heath) - in der Veröffentlichung "The Silver Lining", "Tina Turner", "Sinead O'Connor" (Sinead).In dieser Geschichte geht es in erster Linie um Alexandra, denn sie war die Inspiration, die mich dazu veranlasste, ihre Geschichte zu schreiben. Auf ihren Spuren entdeckte die Autorin jedoch noch viele andere "Schätze" in Form von indigenen Glaubensvorstellungen, großen Religionen und deren Beweggründen, die von weisen Männern und Frauen entwickelt wurden, um die Dinge des Lebens und des Todes sinnvoller zu gestalten und die Lebensweise zu perfektionieren. Die Autorin hat diese Aspekte aufgenommen, damit der Leser besser über den Glauben und die Bestrebungen nicht nur von Alexandra, sondern auch derjenigen, denen sie begegnete und die sie studierte, informiert ist. Die damit verbundenen Nachforschungen führten dazu, einige sehr komplexe Glaubenssysteme zu skizzieren und zusammenzufassen. Alexandras persönliche Reise und Mission konzentrierte sich hauptsächlich auf den indischen Subkontinent und die Himalaya-Region.

Este conto, "Alexandra David Neels", é o quarto da série de contos deste escritor sobre grandes mulheres da história. Os contos anteriores, agora publicados, foram: a história de Sophie (Mary) Pierce (Lady Heath) - na publicação "The Silver Lining", "Tina Turner", "Sinead O'Connor" (Sinead).Esta história é principalmente sobre Alexandra, uma vez que ela foi a influência inspiradora que me levou a escrever a sua história. No entanto, ao seguir os seus passos, o escritor descobriu muitos outros "tesouros" sob a forma de crenças indígenas, grandes religiões e as suas motivações, concebidas por homens e mulheres sábios para tornar as questões da vida e da morte mais significativas e os estilos de vida mais perfeitos. Esta escritora incluiu aspectos destes para que o leitor possa estar melhor informado sobre as crenças e as aspirações não só de Alexandra mas também daqueles que encontrou e estudou. A investigação efectuada permitiu delinear e resumir alguns sistemas de crenças muito complexos. A viagem pessoal e a missão de Alexandra centraram-se principalmente no subcontinente indiano e na região dos Himalaias.

Cette nouvelle, "Alexandra David Neels", est la quatrième d'une série de nouvelles sur les grandes femmes de l'histoire. Les précédentes nouvelles publiées sont : l'histoire de Sophie (Mary) Pierce (Lady Heath) - dans la publication "The Silver Lining", "Tina Turner", "Sinead O'Connor" (Sinead).Cette histoire est avant tout celle d'Alexandra, car c'est elle qui m'a inspiré pour écrire son histoire. Cependant, en marchant sur ses traces, l'auteur a découvert de nombreux autres "trésors" sous la forme de croyances indigènes, de grandes religions et de leurs motivations conçues par des hommes et des femmes sages afin de donner plus de sens aux questions de vie et de mort et de rendre les modes de vie plus parfaits. L'auteur en a inclus certains aspects afin que le lecteur soit mieux informé des croyances et des aspirations non seulement d'Alexandra, mais aussi de ceux qu'elle a rencontrés et étudiés. Les recherches effectuées ont permis de décrire et de résumer des systèmes de croyance très complexes. Le voyage personnel et la mission d'Alexandra se sont principalement concentrés sur le sous-continent indien et la région de l'Himalaya.

Questo racconto, "Alexandra David Neels", è il quarto della serie di racconti di questo scrittore sulle grandi donne della storia. I precedenti racconti, ora pubblicati, sono stati: la storia di Sophie (Mary) Pierce (Lady Heath) - nella pubblicazione "The Silver Lining", "Tina Turner", "Sinead O'Connor" (Sinead).Questa storia riguarda principalmente Alexandra, in quanto è stata l'influenza ispiratrice che mi ha spinto a scrivere la sua storia. Tuttavia, viaggiando sulle sue tracce, la scrittrice ha scoperto molti altri "tesori" sotto forma di credenze indigene, religioni principali e le loro motivazioni, ideate da uomini e donne saggi per rendere le questioni di vita e di morte più significative e gli stili di vita più perfetti. Questa scrittrice ha incluso alcuni aspetti di queste credenze in modo che il lettore possa essere meglio informato sulle credenze e le aspirazioni non solo di Alexandra, ma anche di coloro che ha incontrato e studiato. La ricerca ha portato a delineare e riassumere alcuni sistemi di credenze molto complessi. Il viaggio e la missione personale di Alexandra si sono concentrati principalmente nel subcontinente indiano e nella regione himalayana.

Tina Turner wurde als Anna Mae Bullock am Morgen des 26. November 1939 im Memorial Hospital von Brownsville geboren und lebte in Nut Bush am Highway 19. Ihr Vater war Floyd Richard Bullock, Aufseher auf der Poindexter-Farm. Richard war Diakon in der Woodlawn Baptist Church. Tina erlebte als Kind den ständigen Streit zwischen Richard und seiner Frau Zelma Bullock. In ihrer Autobiografie "Ich Tina" schrieb Tina, dass Richards und Zelmas Kämpfe, "echte Wandrassler", die häusliche Landschaft prägten. Zum Zeitpunkt von Tinas Geburt war ihre Schwester Alline, mit der sie eine lebenslange Freundschaft und gegenseitige Unterstützung verband, drei Jahre alt. Tina sagt, dass Alline ihre Schwester als Verbündete "im elterlichen Kriegsgebiet" begrüßte. Tinas Mutter war eine schwarze Indianerin, und den Hügel hinunter von Tinas Haus und auf der anderen Seite der Forked Deer Road lebte der indianische Zweig des Clans: Zelmas Eltern waren Josephus (Pappa Joe) und Georgianna Corrie.

Tina Turner è nata Anna Mae Bullock la mattina del 26 novembre 1939 al Memorial Hospital di Brownsville e viveva a Nut Bush, sulla Highway 19. Il padre era Floyd Richard Bullock, responsabile della fattoria Poindexter. Suo padre era Floyd Richard Bullock, supervisore della fattoria Poindexter. Richard era un diacono della Chiesa Battista di Woodlawn. Da bambina Tina fu testimone di continui conflitti tra Richard e sua moglie Zelma Bullock. Nella sua autobiografia "I Tina", Tina scrive che le liti tra Richard e Zelma, "veri e propri sonagli da parete", erano la caratteristica dominante del paesaggio domestico. All'epoca della nascita di Tina, sua sorella Alline, con la quale strinse un legame di amicizia e sostegno reciproco che durò tutta la vita, aveva tre anni. Tina racconta che Alline accolse la sorella come un'alleata "nella zona di guerra dei genitori". La madre di Tina era un'indiana nera e in fondo alla collina della casa di Tina e attraverso Forked Deer Road viveva il ramo indiano del clan: i genitori di Zelma erano Josephus (Pappa Joe) e Georgianna Corrie.

This short story, ¿Alexandra David Neels¿ is the fourth in this writer¿s series of short stories about great women in history. The previous short stories now in published form, were; the story of Sophie (Mary) Pierce (Lady Heath) ¿ in the publication ¿The Silver Lining¿, ¿Tina Turner¿, ¿Sinead O¿Connor¿ (Sinead).This story is primarily about Alexandra, as she was the inspirational influence as a result of which I set out to write her story. However, when travelling in her footsteps the writer discovered many other ¿treasures¿ in the form of indigenous beliefs, major religions and their motivations designed by wise men and women in order to make matters of life and death more meaningful and lifestyles more perfect. This writer has included aspects of these so that the reader can be better informed with regard to the beliefs and the aspirations not only of Alexandra but also of those that she encountered and studied. The research involved, led to the outlining, and summarising of, some very complex belief systems. Alexandräs personal journey and mission focused mainly on the Indian subcontinent and the Himalayan region.

The present writer felt that he was well-placed and qualified to write about Monto and the phenomenon of brothels and prostitution in Dublin. Firstly, he is a qualified Sociologist and Town Planner and in his studies and work and as a professional City Planner and Sociologist gained very considerable expertise to enable him to gain a deep understanding of what had happened in Dublin¿s areas of poverty and accompanying sexual depravity. This writer had the good fortune to work as a town planner in Dublin Corporation (Dublin City Council), north and south of the River Liffey. Firstly in the Planning Department located at the edge of Monto in Talbot Street and, following that, working in the Civic Offices Wood Quay. In his work and in his leisure time, he became familiar with every road lane way nook and cranny in Monto and the corresponding area south of the River Liffey, which had the ¿nickname¿ 'Hell'.The title of this short story is ¿Monto and all the Mollies¿. The reason for this is the fact that there were many other areas of brothels besides Monto, where prostitution ¿flourished¿ at different times, both north and south of the Liffey.

When this writer decided to write a short story about Sinead O¿Connor, he literally did not know where to start, but, in spite of that, he decided ¿to begin the begin¿. Sinead was a very complex character/ personality, fearless, and at times reckless, caring, larger than life, talented beyond belief. She herself listed the psychological problems she experienced, like the fact that she was diagnosed as bipolar. Although this she later on denied being the case. In the course of this story, the writer hopes to clarify some aspects of Sinead¿s life so that the readers can have a more accurate picture. Many aspects of her life have been documented, like the fact that she was abused as a child, by, of all people, her mother.Sinead tore up a picture of the Pope to draw attention to the facts of the widespread clerical abuse in the Roman Catholic Church. She sang what is perhaps the world¿s greatest love song ¿Nothing Compares to Yoü a cover version of ¿Prince¿s¿ original. Sinead had several ¿marriages¿, which are well documented. She changed her religion a number of times.

Walter Macken ha prodotto una vasta gamma di opere che coprono la più ampia gamma possibile di questioni, cause, documenti storici e dialoghi interpersonali, trattando argomenti tabù, siano essi etici, politici, religiosi o filosofici. Non è possibile in un racconto breve rendere giustizia alla diversità delle opere e degli argomenti trattati da questo grande e meraviglioso scrittore irlandese. Chi scrive questo racconto ha sulla sua scrivania quattordici volumi dell'opera di Walter Macken, oltre alla biografia del figlio Ultan Macken, a "Walter Macken Dreams on Paper" e a "Walter Macken Critical Perspectives", opera di una serie di critici curata da Sandra Heinen e Katharina Rennhak. Chi scrive si propone quindi di prendere un breve ma rappresentativo estratto da alcuni dei quattordici volumi sopra citati, in modo che il lettore possa farsi un'idea rappresentativa dell'argomento. Walter Macken è stato uno scrittore di racconti, romanzi e opere teatrali scritti e ispirati alla sua terra d'origine, l'Irlanda occidentale, in particolare la zona di Galway e del Connemara. Originariamente era un attore, principalmente con il Taibhdhearc di Galway, che era stato creato per promuovere la lingua nativa irlandese in scritti e produzioni teatrali.

Walter Macken hat eine Vielzahl von Werken verfasst, die ein breites Spektrum an Themen, Ursachen, historischen Aufzeichnungen und zwischenmenschlichen Dialogen abdecken und Tabuthemen behandeln, seien sie ethischer, politischer, religiöser oder philosophischer Natur. Es ist nicht möglich, in einer Kurzgeschichte der Vielfalt der Werke und Themen gerecht zu werden, die dieser große und wunderbare irische Schriftsteller behandelt. Der Verfasser dieser Kurzgeschichte hat vierzehn Bände von Walter Mackens Werk auf seinem Schreibtisch liegen sowie die Biographie seines Sohnes Ultan Macken, "Walter Macken Dreams on Paper" und "Walter Macken Critical Perspectives", das Werk einer von Sandra Heinen und Katharina Rennhak herausgegebenen Reihe von Kritikern. Der Autor schlägt daher vor, einen repräsentativen, aber kurzen Auszug aus einigen der vierzehn oben genannten Bände zu nehmen, damit der Leser einen repräsentativen Eindruck vom Thema erhält. Walter Macken war ein Autor von Kurzgeschichten, Romanen und Theaterstücken, die von seiner Heimat, dem Westen Irlands, insbesondere der Gegend um Galway und Connemara, inspiriert wurden. Ursprünglich war er Schauspieler, vor allem beim Taibhdhearc in Galway, das gegründet wurde, um die irische Muttersprache in Schriften und Theaterstücken zu fördern.

Walter Macken produziu um vasto conjunto de obras que abrangem o mais vasto leque possível de questões, causas, registos históricos, diálogos interpessoais, abordando os temas tabu, sejam eles éticos, políticos, religiosos ou filosóficos. Não é possível, num conto, fazer justiça à diversidade de obras e temas abordados por este grande e maravilhoso escritor irlandês.

O autor propõe-se, por isso, a fazer um pequeno extrato representativo de alguns dos catorze volumes acima referidos, para que o leitor possa ter uma ideia representativa do tema. Walter Macken foi um escritor de contos, romances e peças de teatro escritos e inspirados na sua terra natal, o Oeste da Irlanda, a região de Galway e Connemara em particular.

Walter Macken has produced a vast array of works covering the widest possible range of issues, causes, historical records interpersonal dialogues, dealing with the taboo subjects whether ethical, political, religious or philosophical. It is not possible in a short story to do justice to the diversity of the works and subjects covered by this great and wonderful Irish writer.

This writer proposes therefore to take a representative but short extract from some of the fourteen volumes referred to above so that the reader can get a representative flavour of the subject. Walter Macken was a writer of short stories, novels and plays written and inspired by his home-land, the West of Ireland, the Galway and Connemara area in particular. Originally an actor, principally with the Taibhdhearc in Galway, which had been set up to promote the native Irish language in writings and dramatic productions.

The proximate cause of the Irish Great Famine was the fungal disease Phytophthora infestans, known at the time as ¿blight¿. Transported from the US where it had been present in previous seasons, the blight 1st appeared in Belgium in June 1845 and spread from there across Northern & Central Europe. It was 1st observed in Ireland on August 20 of that year by Dr.Moore of the Botanic Gardens in Dublin¿s Glasnevin.

I'd thought of titles like 'Return to Innocence', based on the fact that in my experience my innocence was taken away from me in my youth. My mother had guided me as far as she could, like the good shepherd guides her sheep. That she could not guide me later in life, through the crises that deflected me from the path that she'd chosen for me, and in one sense believed it was for me, is no reflection on her skills or understanding.
