The light of truth: writings of an anti-lynching crusader |

South Africa (All cities)

Author: Ida B. Wells Publisher: Penguin Classics (2014) ISBN-10: 0143106821 ISBN-13: 9780143106821 Condition: Very Good. The cover has a few light scratches and wear to edges and corners. Binding: Softcover Pages: 581 Dimensions: 19.6 x 12.7 x 2.8 cm +++ by Ida B. Wells +++ The broadest and most comprehensive collection of writings available by an early civil and women's rights pioneer. Seventy-one years before Rosa Parks's courageous act of resistance, police dragged a young Black journalist named Ida B. Wells off a train for refusing to give up her seat. The experience shaped Wells's career, and - when hate crimes touched her life personally - she mounted what was to become her life's work: an anti-lynching crusade that captured international attention. This volume covers the entire scope of Wells's remarkable career, collecting her early writings, articles exposing the horrors of lynching, essays from her travels abroad, and her later journalism. The Light of Truth is both an invaluable resource for study and a testament to Wells' long career as a civil rights activist.

Something of myself and other autobiographical writings

South Africa

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 15 working days Rudyard Kipling has been described as 'one of the few complete originals in English literature'. In his last work, Something of Myself, he reflects on his life and the basis of his art. Yet paradoxically this ostensibly autobiographical work (as an early critic pointed out) actually discloses very little of himself. Thomas Pinney's revealing edition now uncovers the extraordinary extent to which Kipling's account of his life fails to match the biographical facts, in a series of selections, omissions and distortions. Illustrated with Kipling's own satirical drawings from the manuscripts, and brought together with his other autobiographical writings (some previously unpublished), this fascinating book sheds new light on the intriguing relationship between Kipling's life and work. Features Summary In his last work, Something of Myself, Rudyard Kipling reflects on his life and the basis of his art. Author Rudyard Kipling (Author), Thomas Pinney (Editor) Publisher Cambridge UniversityPress Release date 20131203 Pages 330 ISBN 1-107-69350-0 ISBN 13 978-1-107-69350-0

Bound for pretoria. the travel writings of henry adams,

South Africa (All cities)

2016. Soft cover; 291 pages. Very good condition. Under 1kg Among those who accompanied the first Bishop of Pretoria to the Transvaal from England in 1878 was Henry Adams, a former bank clerk-turned-theological student, who was commissioned by a small English newspaper to write about their travels. BOUND FOR PRETORIA brings together his articles about the voyage aboard the steamship Danube and the arduous four-month ox-wagon trek that followed—first through Natal, drought stricken and preparing for war, and then up and over the Draken sberg into the Transvaal. The Anglo-Zulu War broke out within days of their arrival in Pretoria in early 1879. The young writer then produced detailed accounts about conditions in that small town when war, rebellion and resistance were in the air at every turn. Henry Adams’ duties as a founder member of the English Church in the Transvaal soon took precedence over his budding career as a writer. The articles he wrote about the journey were completely forgotten and when his death 13 years later was ruled a suicide, Henry Adams himself was also quickly forgotten. His descendants knew little more than that one of their ancestors had been a priest and that he had killed himself. This collection introduces Henry Adams to his descendants through his travel writings, which were found in 2015 by one of his great-granddaughters.

It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 12 working days A sparkling and up-to-date new cover for one of Fontana Press's strongest-selling titles. `Jung was on a giant scale...he was a master physician of the soul in his insights, a profound sage in his conclusions. He is also one of Western Man's great liberators.' J. B. Priestly, Sunday Telegraph `Jung can sometimes rise to the heights of a Blake or a Nietzsche or a Kierkegaard...like any true prophet or artist, he extended the range of the human imagination...to be able to share Jungian emotions is surely an almost necessary capacity of the free mind.' Philip Toynbee, Observer This compact volume of extracts from the twenty volumes of Jung's published writings presents him clearly, in his own words and in precis. Jung's writing is the key to understanding 20th-century psychology, psychiatry and psychoanalysis. Most of the terms of reference now used (`extrovert', `collective unconscious', `archetype') are Jungian. This is essential reading for both students of psychology and the general reader.
