Margaret Lucas Cavendish, duchess of Newcastle (1623-1673), began her literary career in 1653, with the publication of a volume of her poems and another of her "philosophical fancies." Her writing continued at a hectic pace for nearly two decades. She did not limit herself to the genres considered "acceptable" for those few women who dared to publish in the late seventeenth century; instead, she wrote philosophical and scientific works, a utopian romance that has often been called the first work of science fiction in English, a biography of her husband, and her own autobiography. She also published two collections of dramatic works: the first of these, Plays, appeared in 1662, the second, Plays, Never before Printed, in 1668.Cavendish was keenly aware that her comedies and tragedies were unlikely to be acted, at least in her lifetime, but that did not deter her. "To those that do delight in scenes and wit / I dedicate my book," she writes in a brief poem at the beginning of Plays. She continues, "For all the time my plays a-making were, / My brain the stage, my thoughts were acting there."Today the most widely read of Cavendish's plays is The Convent of Pleasure, from Plays, Never before Printed. In this provocative comedy, Cavendish presents us with the delightful Lady Happy, whose determined efforts to avoid the pains of men and marriage lead her to construct a convent where women can devote themselves to enjoying life's pleasures. The women who retreat with her into the Convent of Pleasure are determined to avoid not only the dangers of men and marriage but also of childbirth and motherhood. Even so, they will not deny themselves the pleasures of love. Inside her convent, Lady Happy dares to imagine a radical alternative to marriage: since men and marriage cause only pain and suffering, perhaps a woman can fulfill her emotional and sexual desires with another woman. When she finds her soul's mate in a princess (rather than a prince), Lady Happy poses a critical question to herself and to us: "But why may not I love a woman with the same affection I could a man?"This Saltar's Point Press edition, designed for classroom use, provides readers with an ample introduction to Cavendish's life and work, a carefully modernized and well-presented text, helpful glosses and notes, a bibliography with references for further reading, and a chronology of Cavendish's published work.

The demon led Titus into the study where Lucifer waited. An overflowing ashtray sat on the desk still smoldering from a cigar freshly extinguished. The room was full of the holiest of all books. It was evident to Titus that Lucifer was searching the Word for something. "My Liege," Titus offered in greeting kneeling on the expensive Persian rug."I assume you have a good reason for coming uninvited to my home, for interrupting me, and for usurping your position," Lucifer drilled. "Yes, my Liege," Titus answered humbly. Being confident did not mean he need be arrogant. "I bring you news of Platitude," Titus offered as he stood."What is your report then?" Lucifer prompted, fighting visible agitation. "We found a prophet," Titus once again paused giving Lucifer plenty of time to process the information. He cunningly laid his cards out for Lucifer to see and was instantly rewarded. A small ripple of excitement pulsed through Lucifer. But that excitement was chased back by a hint of fear that Titus would never acknowledge seeing. All who were wise feared the King. It was only right that Lucifer should as well. After all, who knew better than Lucifer what the King was capable of?"Go on," Lucifer prompted in a slightly softer tone, his interest piqued. Lucifer listened intently as Titus filled him in on the critical elements of the battle in Platitude. Titus did, of course, leave out many key facts, facts he was sure would only work against him. "Destroy the others, but bring me the prophet alive," Lucifer ordered.

Find Your Heart, the sequel to Kiss Your Elbow begins in 1968 at junior college when Jobs, friends, and the gay women's bar scene dominated life.

Texte intégral.En édition bilingue anglais/français, avec lecture audio intégrée: Non seulement vous pourrez lireSalomé en français et en anglais, mais vous pouvez aussi écouter la lecture de cet ouvrage en anglais, grâce à votre téléphone ou votre tablette. L'idéal pour améliorer votre maîtrise de la langue de Wilde !Cruauté, sacrilège, étrangeté et érotisme se mêlent dans cette tragédie en un acte d'Oscar Wilde, évoquant l'épisode biblique de Salomé. Salomé belle-fille du tétrarque de Galilée Hérode Antipas, qui, à la consternation de son beau-père, mais au grand plaisir de sa mère Hérodiade, demande qu'on lui apporte la tête de Iokanaan (Jean le Baptiste) sur un plateau d'argent comme récompense pour avoir exécuté la danse des sept voiles.De cette danseuse fatale, Wilde donna dans Salomé l'une des interprétations les plus marquantes de l'histoire de la littérature. La tension croissante de cette pièce traduit la montée du désir monstrueux de Salomé, la fille d'Hérodias, pour le prophète Iokanaan.La princesse de Judée, qui incarne la femme " naturelle, c'est-à-dire abominable " selon Baudelaire, devint une figure majeure de l'imaginaire décadent, à la fin du XIXe siècle, et le mythe de Salomé suscitera une fascination sans égale chez les peintres, poètes et romanciers.Oscar Wilde écrivit cette pièce à Paris, où il s'était retiré après avoir achevé L'Éventail de Lady Windermere. Il la dédia à Pierre Louÿs, qui apporta quelques corrections au texte mais n'intervint que très peu. Séduite par le rôle-titre, Sarah Bernhardt décida de l'interpréter elle-même, et les répétitions commencèrent au Palace Theatre de Londres. Ces répétitions durent toutefois s'interrompre lorsque la censure du Lord Chamberlain eut interdit Salomé au motif qu'il était illégal de représenter sur scène des personnages bibliques. Indigné, Wilde envisagea de renoncer à sa nationalité britannique et de devenir français afin de ne plus avoir à subir de telles restrictions.

Susan was tall, athletic, and popular in elementary school and it never occurred to her life would change drastically when she entered junior high school. But by the first weekend in the new school year it was clear her easy-going life had changed forever.
