简介：Of all Jane Austen's books, Pride and Prejudice has earneda special place in the hearts of the reading public as herbest-loved and most intimately known novel. From its famous opening sentence the story of the Bennet family andof the novel's two protagonists, Elizabeth and Darcy, toldwith a wit that its author feared might prove 'rather too light and bright, and sparkling', delights its most familiar readers as thoroughly as it does those who encounter it for the first time. Jane Austen's artistry isapparent, too, in the delineation of the minor characters:the ill-matched Mr. and Mrs. Bennet, Charles Bingley and his sisters, and above all the fatuous Mr. Collins, whose proposal to Elizabeth Bennet is one of the finest comic passages in English literature. And while she entertains us, Jane Austen teaches us the wisdom of balance, the folly of 'pride' and 'prejudice'.

简介：A Reading of Jane Austen (first published by Peter Owen in 1975) has established itself with critics and readers as an outstanding contribution to the growing literature on this author, full of fresh and stimulating perceptions. Central to the word is Barbara Hardy's view of Jane Austen as the originator of the modern novel, largely through her creation of a new and flexible medium enabling her to move easily from sympathy to detachment, from one mind to many minds, from solitary scenes to social gatherings.

简介：The New York School of Photography refers to a loosely defined group of photographers who lived and worked in NewYork City from the late 1930s to the early 1960s. In this volume, author Jane Livingston, former chief curator of the Corcoran Gallery of Art, defines this seminal episode in American photography by examining sixteen photographersand their influences, subjects, and stylistic earmarks. Included are Diane Arbus, Richard Avedon, Alexey Brodovitch, Ted Croner, Bruce Davidson, Don Donaghy, LouisFaurer, Robert Frank, Sid Grossman, William Klein, Saul Leiter, Leon Levinstein, Helen Levitt, Lisette Model, David Vestal, and Weegee. Many of these photographers worked for the magazines of the day but stretched the boundaries of their medium in their personal work as street photographers. Their subjectwas most often New York itself: the random choreography ofthe city's sidewalks, the crush of bodies on Coney Island's beaches, the glow of street lights, and the glareof Times Square. To some degree they all assimilated or transformed the photographic concerns of Lewis Hine, Walker Evans, and Henri Cartier-Bresson, whose positions set the stage for the emergence of the New York School. Many of them identified with the look and values embodied in film noir. In The New York School, each photographer's work is represented in a portfolio of approximately twelve images printed on one of four kinds of paper; varying shades and tones among the portfolios are achieved by the use of different duotone inks. Through an electrifying selection of both classic and rediscovered photographs and an irresistibly engaging text full of quotes from the photographers themselves, Jane Livingston shows the distinctive stylistic nature, of this newly understood group.

简介："Perhaps the first modern novelist, Jane Austen (1775-1817) has left an indelible mark on the world of letters. This reference book is an accurate, comprehensive, and detailed guide to her life and works. The chronologies that begin the volume outline the principal events in her life and place her works within larger historical and literary contexts. The hundreds of alphabetically arranged entries that follow identify characters, discuss works and themes, and synthesize the vast body of criticism devoted to her writings. The volume concludes with extensive bibliographies of works by and about Austen."--BOOK JACKET.

简介："In this innovative and wide-ranging book, Byatt and the psychoanalyst Ignes Sodre bring their different sensibilities to bear on six novels they have read and loved: Jane Austen's Mansfield Park, Charlotte Bronte's Villette, George Eliot's Daniel Deronda, Willa Cather's The Professor's House, Iris Murdoch's An Unofficial Rose, and Toni Morrison's Beloved. The results are nothing less than an education in the ways literature grips its readersand at times, transforms their very lives." "Whether they are examining the bewildering passivity of Jane Austen's heroines, exploring Willa Cather's code of solitude, or reading Toni Morrison's Beloved as a novel about spite, Byatt and Sodre are witty, humane, funny, and profound. For anyone who loves Byatt's novels, for anyone who loves literature, Imagining Characters is indispensable, a work of criticism that returns us to the books it discusses with renewed respect and wonder."--BOOK JACKET.

简介：　　Book Description 　　Sense and Sensibility is a novel by Jane Austen that was first published in 1811. It was the first of Austen's novels to be published, under the pseudonym "A Lady." The novel has been adapted for film and television a number of times, most notably in Ang Lee's 1995 version. 　　 　　Publisher Comments: 　　Tor Classics are affordably-priced editions designed to attract the young reader. Original dynamic cover art enthusiastically represents the excitement of each story. Appropriate "reader friendly" type sizes have been chosen for each title—offering clear, accurate, and readable text. All editions are complete and unabridged, and feature Introductions and Afterwords. 　　 　　This edition of Sense and Sensibility includes a Foreword, Biographical Note, and Afterword by Elizabeth Engstrom. 　　 　　Elinor Dashwood is affectionate and good-natured--but above all, prudent. She takes pride in her ability to conceal her emotions from others. Her younger sister, Marianne, on the other hand, is everything Elinor is not: impulsive, romantic, and carefree. It's hard to imagine two sisters who could be more different. 　　 　　But twists of fate will unite Elinor and Marianne in a tangled web of deception that could ruin each of them. 　　 　　Both have decided to marry. Elinor has made a sensible decision and has set her sights on a man she believes will be a good husband and a decent provider. Marianne--swept away by emotion--has lost her heart to a handsome, dashing charmer. Men as different as night and day: but each sister believes she has made the perfect choice. 　　 　　Or has she? 　　 　　Amazon.com 　　Though not the first novel she wrote, Sense and Sensibility was the first Jane Austen published. Though she initially called it Elinor and Marianne, Austen jettisoned both the title and the epistolary mode in which it was originally written, but kept the essential theme: the necessity of finding a workable middle ground between passion and reason. The story revolves around the Dashwood sisters, Elinor and Marianne. Whereas the former is a sensible, rational creature, her younger sister is wildly romantic--a characteristic that offers Austen plenty of scope for both satire and compassion. Commenting on Edward Ferrars, a potential suitor for Elinor's hand, Marianne admits that while she "loves him tenderly," she finds him disappointing as a possible lover for her sister: 　　 　　Oh! Mama, how spiritless, how tame was Edward's manner in reading to us last night! I felt for my sister most severely. Yet she bore it with so much composure, she seemed scarcely to notice it. I could hardly keep my seat. To hear those beautiful lines which have frequently almost driven me wild, pronounced with such impenetrable calmness, such dreadful indifference! 　　Soon however, Marianne meets a man who measures up to her ideal: Mr. Willoughby, a new neighbor. So swept away by passion is Marianne that her behavior begins to border on the scandalous. Then Willoughby abandons her; meanwhile, Elinor's growing affection for Edward suffers a check when he admits he is secretly engaged to a childhood sweetheart. How each of the sisters reacts to their romantic misfortunes, and the lessons they draw before coming finally to the requisite happy ending forms the heart of the novel. Though Marianne's disregard for social conventions and willingness to consider the world well-lost for love may appeal to modern readers, it is Elinor whom Austen herself most evidently admired; a truly happy marriage, she shows us, exists only where sense and sensibility meet and mix in proper measure. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　--Alix Wilber 　　 　　From Library Journal 　　Austen is the hot property of the entertainment world with new feature film versions of Persuasion and Sense and Sensibility on the silver screen and Pride and Prejudice hitting the TV airwaves on PBS. Such high visibility will inevitably draw renewed interest in the original source materials. These new Modern Library editions offer quality hardcovers at affordable prices. 　　 　　Book Dimension 　　Height (mm) 172 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Width (mm) 106

简介：　　Initially published under the pseudonym Currer Bell in 1847, Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre erupted onto the English literary scene, immediately winning the devotion of many of the world's most renowned writers, including William Makepeace Thackeray, who declared it a work "of great genius." Widely regarded as a revolutionary novel, Bronte's masterpiece introduced the world to a radical new type of heroine, one whose defiant virtue and moral courage departed sharply from the more acquiescent and malleable female characters of the day. Passionate, dramatic, and surprisingly modern, Jane Eyre endures as one of the world's most beloved novels. This Modern Library Paperback Classics edition includes newly written explanatory notes.

简介：　　grade 8 up—in this practical and lively self-help title, the author argues that teens have six key decisions to make, and that their choices will make or break their futures. the decisions involve getting a good education, choosing true friends, getting along with parents, dating and sex, avoiding addictions, and establishing a healthy sense of self-worth. covey provides tips for making and following through on each of these areas and delivers concise sound bites of advice peppered with colorful graphics, cartoons, and movie quotes. he supports his arguments with facts, statistics, and analysis. for example, in urging teens to stay in school and keep up their grades, he provides a chart of lifelong earnings based on the highest degree earned, as well as the money needed for a family. the author briefly addresses problems associated with the choices. for example, regarding school, he gives tips on dealing with stress, time management, learning disabilities, and preparing for college. he is frank in discussing sex and dating myths and the dangers of stds and teenage pregnancy. this book covers typical self-help territory, but does so in a manner that teens will appreciate. its downfall is its wide scope and the author's failure to cite most of his sources. however, the volume is not designed to be read straight through, and its quick and easy tips will appeal to most readers.—jane cronkhite, cuyahoga county public library, oh 　　copyright © reed business information, a division of reed elsevier inc. all rights reserved. 　　作者简介： 　　sean covey is senior vice president of innovations and products at franklincovey, a world-renowned organization devoted to helping individu-als and organizations achieve greatness. sean graduated from byu with a degree in english and later earned his m.b.a. from harvard business school.as the starting quarterback for byu, he led his team to two bowl games and received numerous honors. he is the author of fourth down and life to go,and the international bestseller the 7 habits of highly effective teens, which has sold over three million copies and was translated into more than fifteen languages. he is a popular speaker to youth and adult groups. 　　 sean's favorite things include going to movies, eating mexican food, writing,producing short films, playing with his kids, riding his motorcycle, reading the far side comics, and shooting paintballs. he adheres to the common say-ing, "you're only young once, but you can be immature forever." he and his wife, rebecca, live with their kids in the rocky mountains.

简介："The year: 1810. The place: Edinburgh, Scotland. A student, Jane Cumming, accuses her school mistresses, Jane Pirie and Marianne Woods, of having an affair in the presence of their students. Dame Cumming Gordon, the wealthy and powerful grandmother of the accusing student, advises her friends to remove their daughters from the boarding school. Within days, the school is deserted and the two women deprived of their livelihood." "Lillian Faderman, award-winning author of Odd Girls and Twilight Lovers, gives an extraordinary rendering of the real-life story on which Lillian Hellman based her famous play, The Children鈥檚 Hour. Faderman reconstructs the libel suit filed by Pirie and Woods that eventually resulted in a scotch verdict - a verdict of not proven or an inconclusive decision. Through court transcripts, judges鈥?notes, and her personal reflections on the witnesses鈥?contradictory testimony and the prejudices of the men presiding over the case, Faderman skillfully documents the social, economic, and sexual pressures that shaped the lives of nineteenth-century women." "Provocative and compelling, not only does Scotch Verdict point to the marginalization of women by raising issues of class, gender, and sexuality with respect to Pirie and Woods, but also of race in its depiction of Jane Cumming, the half-Indian child who was born in India and out of wedlock to Dame Cumming Gordon鈥檚 eldest son."--BOOK JACKET.

Death and life of great Amerian cities

作者：  珍·雅各(Jane Jacobs)著;吴郑重译注

出版社：联经出版事业股份有限公司,2007

简介：本書以城市生理學的角度出發，指出城市的規劃與重建，首重了解城市神秘和複雜的運作方式，以及城市人的真實生活。書的第一部分從許多真實案例中歸納出街道鄰里在都市生活中的重要地位。第二部分聚焦一個普遍性原則，就是城市需要一個非常複雜、細緻、多樣化的土地利用形態，在經濟和社會各方面不時相互支持。這也是作者的論述核心。第三部分對住宅、交通、設計、規劃提出建議，並討論城市在處理組織複雜性所面臨的各種問題。 書中最後強調，必須將城市看待成一個具有複雜秩序的有機體，以生命科學的社會工程來處理都市計畫的複雜問題，那樣才有可能賦予城市生命和活力。這是偉大城市的基本條件，也是最高境界。否則，只對城市的外觀進行規劃，而不思索城市有哪些與生俱來的功能秩序，是註定失敗的。 2006年4月25日，哥倫比亞廣播公司、《紐約時報》、《華盛頓郵報》等北美各大媒體紛紛以大篇幅報導一名沒有大學文憑和「專業」背景的老太太過世，這就是《偉大城市的誕生與衰亡》一書的作者，珍．雅各。這是她的第一本書，也是成名之作，一本徹底顛覆當時歐美規劃理論的經典之作。1961年剛出版時，便以淺白易懂的庶民觀點，深入人心。歷經半個世紀，它的影響力至今持續不墜。 本書從社區鄰里的街道生活和商業及文化的多樣性等「生活城市」的槪念出發，強調唯有多元混合的「人性尺度」，始能造就「平凡而偉大的城市」。因而對於大規模開發和夷平式更新的都市發展策略，大加抨擊。1996年紐約市立圖書館精選出版的「世紀好書」將它與韋伯的《基督新教倫理與資本主義精神》、凱因斯的《就業、利息與貨幣的一般理論》、魏伯倫的《有閒階級論》等書，並列為20世紀「經濟與技術類」中，十一本最重要的經典巨著之一。 本書特色 ◎ 全書以淺白的話語和實際的生活案例，闡述美國大城的興衰之道。 ◎ 立論基礎均奠基在真實的城市生活，並用這些具體的生活經驗，對20世紀的主流規劃與建築理論加以反省和批判。 ◎ 將城市視為一個有生命的有機體，用生理學觀點理解城市運作機制，有助於反思都市計畫如何與市民生活完美結合。 ◎ 本書探討的「混合使用」多樣性策略，提醒讀者如何善用現有的珍貴城市資產，創造一個神奇非凡的生活城市。

简介：　　Published in conjunction with C-SPAN's American Writers series, this Dictionary of American Writers features capsule biographies of more than 1,100 American writers. Among them are "numerous American Indians, former slaves, and immigrants from every corner of the earth." There are writers of fiction, poetry, drama, history, essays, diaries, philosophy, and even screenplays. While some of these write-ups (on Emily Dickinson, Benjamin Franklin, and William Dean Howells, for example) are longer, most are around 150 words (and adapted from Merriam-Webster's Encyclopedia of Literature). You can't say a lot in 150 words. There are dates and places to fit in, as well as titles of major works, and, in some cases, pronunciations (though why there are five listed for John Brougham's surname eludes us). The biographical sketches are, in other words, sketchy. Still, the book starts in with Edward Abbey and doggedly charts a path all the way to Louis Zukofsky. 　　 If you're looking for a little information about an awful lot of American writers, this will suit your needs just fine. And there are interesting tidbits throughout: lawyer Louis Auchincloss, we learn, managed to pen 50 books in part because he would take a writing notebook to court; Frances Hodgson Burnett paid for writing paper by "gathering and selling wild grapes"; and Mary Higgins Clark worked as a flight attendant. Also included are more than 500 entries on literary works, and over 75 on groups, movements, and periodicals that have helped shape "the character of American literature." --Jane Steinberg
