The articles presume a basic knowledge of Malcolm Saville’s books for children and generally encourage readers to re-read the books being discussed and to see new things in them. For readers new to Malcolm Saville, let me just say here that he wrote stories for children, some for younger children and some for teenagers, between 1943 and 1978. The early stories were dramatised on the radio (Children’s Hour) from the beginning. Malcolm Saville, born in Hastings, published some 87 books for children alongside a full-time career in publishing. He is best known for his Lone Pine Series starting with Mystery at Witchend, twenty full-length novels and one novelette. These spanned from his favourite Shropshire, to Rye, Dartmoor, North Yorkshire, Southwold and London. He is considered a master at evoking location. His other series included The Jillies, The Buckinghams, Mary and Michael, Susan and Bill, the Nettleford series and the Marston Baines novels for older children. The Jillies (6 books, 1948-53) starting in Norfolk with two families, the Jillions and Standings who meet on holiday in Blakeney, in Redshanks Warning. They meet up again in London, the Pennines , Ely, Austria and finally the home counties. In the Buckingham’s series (6 books 1950–74 starting with The Master of Maryknoll), children befriend the son of a famous exiled Polish violinist. Venues range from Ludlow, Shropshire, to north Yorkshire, Brighton, London, Italy, Amsterdam. For younger children there were two series: Mary and Michael (1945-57) were Londoners who were sent to the country and get to Cornwall, Dorset, Sussex, and the Grand Union Canal. The first book, Trouble at Townsend (1945), of their life on a farm, became a film. Susan and Bill were children who moved to a new town (unspecified): stories describe their settling in experiences as well as their holidays, including one in a railway camping coach. The Nettleford series are experiences of village and farm life for young children. For older teenagers, the Marston Baines thriller-romances (1962-1978) echo James Bond, a master spy whose university student friends get into some serious difficulties with terrorists, anti-semites, drug dealers, black magic and mafia. Two books never resulted in series: Treasure at the Mill (1957); and The Thin Grey Man (1966).The films of Treasure at the Mill and Trouble at Townsend have recently been reissued and are attractive period pieces of children's cinema. Malcolm Saville also wrote non-fiction, generally on country themes (such as Country Scrapbook, Open-Air Scrapbook, and Seaside Scrapbook of the 1940s, encouraging post-war outdoor pursuits and holidays. There were two main religious books, King of Kings (1958, a life of Jesus) and Strange Story (1967, the crucifixion seen through the eyes of contemporary Roman children).

Mark O’Hanlon, The Complete Lone Pine Worcester: Mark O’Hanlon (2nd edition) Mark O’Hanlon, Beyond the Lone Pine Worcester: Mark O’Hanlon (biography) 3 PART 1. The Emerging Author 1. D J DESMOND: THE ANONYMOUS AUTHOR. © STEPHEN BIGGER, 2005. Later in his writing life, Malcolm Saville proudly signed books “Signed by the Author Malcolm Saville”. Author normally has a capital A, to say that it was a status worth having. Works attributed anonymously as D J Desmond therefore are interesting. Those currently known are: his first book, Amateur Acting and Producing for Beginners (1937); Stonewall Jackson, a story (1939); a poem contained within his Country Scrapbook (1944); Craftsmanship in a Machine Age (1948) and John & Jennifer on the Farm (Denes, 1949). Amateur Acting was essentially completed as part of his job, one of a series. As such a pseudonym was natural. ‘Stonewall Jackson’ was from the same period. His prose poem in Country Scrapbook is part of a miscellany of poems by more famous people, so the pseudonym is not to draw attention to his own authorship. ‘Craftsmanship’ used the pseudonym because it was his second article in the same book, the first being ‘The World’s Greatest Port’ under his own name. John & Jennifer on the Farm with the publisher Nelson was someone else’s series, Gee Denes who used photographs as the skeleton of this series for young school children and who is named as the author. With his career profile, Malcolm Saville may have preferred not to use his own name for a ghost written book. It gave him the opportunity however for his own series for Nelson with Susan and Bill (note the switch in order of gender). Nevertheless, all these works should be recognised as part of his authentic corpus of work. As to the name, until I have further evidence, I will continue to assume that, like James Herriott, it came from the telephone book. I. Amateur Acting and Producing for Beginners was published in 1937, price 2/6d, as part of C Arthur Pearson Ltd’s The Beginner Series including, according to the back cover, books on photography, stamp collecting and short story writing. Pearson’s were in Southampton Street, The Strand in London, a part of the George Newnes publishing empire for which, after a period in journalism, Malcolm Saville has just started to work in marketing (where he helped to launch Enid Blyton’s career): like Fleet Street for newspapers, this was a street of book and magazine publishers of great significance to Malcolm Saville’s working life since it also housed Newnes, and My Garden magazine. This was a street where publishers and editors met in pubs and cafes and did deals. Capt WE Johns’ office was here, for Popular Flying magazine (bought by George Newnes in 1935 who introduced a spin-off Flying, both hugely critical of government inactivity in preparing for war. Johns met Theo Stephens of My Garden magazine in 1936 and wrote a year long series called The Passing Show about his own Surrey garden later published as a book (1937), and many other garden articles. Publishing was a small world which provided Malcolm Saville opportunities for authorship. Decisions to use an alias or pen-name are always interesting. Possibly Malcolm Saville saw this as a one off and quirky book, a work task, not something he wished to define his own career. I think it was probably not lack of confidence – seeing your own name on your first book motivates many a writer! The back cover states: “Written by an experienced amateur, this book is a practical and entertaining guide to the essentials of amateur acting and the art of producing”. In the book, Malcolm Saville talks about the “society of which I am a member” (p.25) who referred to key background organisers as “Five Industrious Mechanics”.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Spiderweb by Penelope Lively Penelope Lively
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Spiderweb by Penelope Lively Penelope Lively. Our editors will review what you’ve submitted and determine whether to revise the article. Penelope Lively , in full Dame Penelope Margaret Lively , original name Penelope Margaret Low , (born March 17, 1933, Cairo, Egypt), British writer of well-plotted novels and short stories that stress the significance of memory and historical continuity. After spending her childhood in Egypt, Lively was sent to London at the age of 12 when her parents were divorced. She graduated from St. Anne’s College, Oxford, in 1954. Her first book, the children’s novel Astercote (1970), about modern English villagers who fear a resurgence of medieval plague, was followed by more than 20 other novels for children, many of which were set in rural England, including the award-winning books The Ghost of Thomas Kempe (1973) and A Stitch in Time (1976). Lively’s passion for landscape gardening inspired her first work for adults, the nonfiction The Presence of the Past: An Introduction to Landscape History (1976). Her first adult novel, The Road to Lichfield (1977), in which past truths shift when viewed from a contemporary perspective, reflects her interest in history and in the kinds of evidence on which contemporary views of the past are based. Her other novels for adults included Treasures of Time (1979), which won the British National Book Award; Judgement Day (1980); Moon Tiger (1987; Booker Prize), based partly on her recollections of Egypt; Passing On (1989); City of the Mind (1991); and Cleopatra’s Sister (1993). Heat Wave (1996) is the story of the disintegration of a marriage, and a retired anthropologist reflects on her past in Spiderweb (1998).

  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.

  • The Consensus View on Camping and Tramping Fiction Is That It First
    Camping and Tramping, Swallows and Amazons: Interwar Children’s Fiction and the Search for England Hazel Sheeky A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of PhD School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Newcastle University May 2012 Abstract For many in Britain, the interwar period was a time of significant social, political and cultural anxiety. In the aftermath of the First World War, with British imperial power apparently waning, and with the politics of class becoming increasingly pressing, many came to perceive that traditional notions of British, and particularly English, identity were under challenge. The interwar years saw many cultural responses to the concerns these perceived challenges raised, as seen in H. V. Morton’s In Search of England (1927) and J. B. Priestley’s English Journey (1934). The sense of socio-cultural crisis was also registered in children’s literature. This thesis will examine one significant and under-researched aspect of the responses to the cultural anxieties of the inter-war years: the ‘camping and tramping’ novel. The term ‘camping and tramping’ refers to a sub-genre of children’s adventure stories that emerged in the 1930s. These novels focused on the holiday leisure activities – generally sailing, camping and hiking - of largely middle-class children in the British (and most often English) countryside. Little known beyond Arthur Ransome’s ‘Swallows and Amazons’ novels (1930-1947), this thesis undertakes a full survey of camping and tramping fiction, developing for the first time a taxonomy of this sub-genre (chapter one).

  • The Novel Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo
    119 ACTA NEOPHILOLOGICA UDK: 821.111.09-31Evaristo B. DOI: 10.4312/an.53.1-2.119-131 Stigma as an Attribute of Oppression or an Agent of Change: The Novel Girl, Woman, Other by Bernardine Evaristo Darja Zorc-Maver Abstract The purpose of this paper is to describe the processes of stigmatization and oppression of women as presented by Bernardine Evaristo in her book Girl, Women, Other. The book features twelve female characters who are very different from each other, but what they have in common is that they each, in their own way, face stigma, misunderstanding and social exclusion. The social construction of stigma causes various kinds of social inequali- ties of the stigmatized. Through the fictional narratives of the stigmatized and the reflec- tion of their position in the novel, stigmatized women become the bearers of change and not merely the victims of oppression. Key words: stigma, racism, oppression, gender, Bernardine Evaristo Acta_Neophilologica_2020_FINAL.indd 119 23. 11. 2020 07:19:52 120 DARJA ZORC-MAVER In 2019 the prestigious Booker Prize for Fiction went to two women writers for their new novels, the Canadian literary icon Margaret Atwood (The Testa- ments) and the first black British woman author of fiction to win it, Bernardine Evaristo (Girl, Woman, Other). The prize, a proven literarysuccès d’estime, is a big achievement for black British women that now have an internationally acclaimed contemporary literary voice. This is a contemporary panoramic, polyphonic novel, written partly in prose and partly as a poem or simply a poem in prose, without using initial capital letters in sentences and full-stops apart from the endings of individual (sub)chapters, which describes the fictional lives of mostly black wom- en in Britain.
