Montgomery). Written for all ages, it has been considered a classic children's novel since the mid-20th century. Set at the end of the 19th century, the novel recounts the adventures of Anne an orphaned 11-year-old girl, who is mistakenly sent to two middle-aged brothers, Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert, who originally intended to a boy to help them on his farm in the fictional town of Avonlea on Prince Edward Island, Canada. The novel explains how Anne makes her way through life with the Cuthberts, at school, and inside the city. Since its publication, Anne of Green Gables has been translated into at least 36 languages and has sold more than 50 million copies, making it one of the best-selling books worldwide. [4] The first in an anthology series, Montgomery wrote numerous sequels, and since his death, another sequel has been published, as well as an authorized prequel. The original book is taught to students around the world. [5] The book has been adapted as films, films made for television, and animated and live action TV series. Musicals and plays have also been created, with annual productions in Europe and Japan. [7] Background The portrait of Evelyn Nesbit by Rudolf Eickemeyer Jr. that inspired Montgomery. [9] Writing the novel, Montgomery was inspired by the notes she had made as a child about two brothers who were mistakenly sent to an orphaned girl instead of the boy they had asked for, but decided to keep it. He relied on his own childhood experiences on the rural island Prince Edward, Canada. Montgomery used a photograph of Evelyn Nesbit, who had cut from New York's Metropolitan Magazine and posed on the wall of her bedroom, as a model for Anne Shirley's face and a reminder of her youthful idealism and spirituality. [9] Montgomery was inspired by the orphaned stories of the Ann formula (called such because they followed such a predictable formula) that were popular at the time and distinguished his character by writing his name with an extra e. [11] He based other characters, such as Gilbert Blythe, in part on people he knew. She said she wrote the novel in the twilight the next day, while sitting in her window overlooking the Cavendish fields. [12] The plot summary Anne attacks Gilbert Anne Shirley, a young orphan from the fictional community of Bolingbroke, Nova Scotia (based on the real community of Nova London, Prince Edward Island),[13][14] is sent to live with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, brothers in their fifties and sixties, after a past childhood in the houses and orphanages of strangers. Marilla and Matthew had originally decided to adopt a boy from the orphanage to help Matthew run his farm in Green Gables, which is located in the fictional town of Avonlea (based in Cavendish, Prince Edward Island). Through a misunderstanding, the orphanage sends Anne. Anne is fanciful, imaginative, eager to please and dramatic. However, she is defensive about her appearance, despising her red hair, freckles and pale, thin frame, but lioing her nose. She is a talker, when it comes to describing your fantasies and dreams. Stern Marilla says Anne must return to the orphanage, but after much observation and Along with Matthew's friendly and quiet encouragement, Marilla decides to let her stay. Anne takes a lot of joy in life and adapts quickly, thriving in the nearby farming village. His imagination and spoken soon illuminated Green Gables. The book recounts Anne's struggles and joys when settled in Green Gables (the first real house she has ever known): the country school where she quickly excels in her studies; her friendship with Diana Barry, the girl who lives next door (her best or friend's body as Anne calls her fondly); his nascent literary ambitions; and her rivalry with her classmate Gilbert Blythe, who mocks her over her red hair. For this reason, he earns his instant hatred, although he apologizes several times. Although, as time goes by, Anne realizes that she no longer hates Gilbert, but her pride and stubbornness keep her from talking to him. The book also follows Anne's adventures in Avonlea. Episodes include play-time with her friends Diana, calm, placid Jane Andrews, and the beautiful and crazy Ruby Gillis. She has run-ins with nasty sisters Pye, Gertie and Josie, and frequent domestic scratches such as dyeing her hair green while pretending to dye it black, and accidentally getting diana drunk giving her what she thinks is raspberry cordial, but which turns out to be currant wine. At sixteen, Anne goes to the Queen's Academy to obtain a teaching license, along with Gilbert, Ruby, Josie, Jane, and several other students, excluding Diana, much to Anne's consternation. He obtains his license in one year instead of the usual two and wins the Avery Scholarship awarded to the best student in English. This scholarship would allow him to pursue a bachelor's degree in Arts (B.A.) at the fictional Redmond College (based on the real University of Dalhousie) on the mainland in Nova Scotia. Near the end of the book, however, tragedy strikes when Matthew dies of a heart attack after knowing that all his money and Marilla have been lost in a bank failure. Out of devotion to Marilla and Green Gables, Anne gives up the scholarship to stay at home and help Marilla, whose vision is failing. She plans to teach at Carmody School, the nearest school available, and return to Green Gables on weekends. In an act of friendship, Gilbert Blythe renounced his teaching position at Avonlea School to work at White Sands School, knowing that Anne wants to be close to Marilla after Matthew's death. After this kind of act, Anne and Gilbert's friendship is cemented, and Anne waits for what life will bring next. Characters Diana and Anne Green Gables home Anne Shirley: An imaginative orphan, talker, redhead who comes to live with Matthew and Marilla Cuthbert at the age of 11. Anne is very sensitive and doesn't like the color of her hair. The Anne's gloomy move was passed from the orphanage to host houses, caring for younger children. She is to finally have a real house in Green Gables. Marilla Cuthbert as Matthew's sister, an austere but fair woman who has the brilliance of a sense of humour. Her life has been colorless and joyless until Anne's arrival. She tries to instill discipline in the child, but grows to love Anne's vivacity and joy. Matthew Cuthbert: Marilla's brother, a shy and kind man who likes Anne from the beginning. The two become fast friends and he is the first person to have shown Anne's unconditional love. Although Marilla has the primary responsibility for Anne's up brood, Matthew has no qualifications about spoiling her and enjoying her with beautiful clothes and other frivolities. Friends/classmates of Anne Diana Barry: Anne's body friend and a kind spirit. Anne and Diana become best friends from the moment they meet.

    赤毛のアン Akage no Anne ~ Takahata Isao ~ 1979 Akage no Anne Le mois de Juin de cette année 2008 vient de fêter l’ouverture du centenaire de la naissance d’une certaine Anne Shirley. En effet, cette jeune personne fut l’héroïne du roman Anne of Green Gables / Anne... La Maison aux pignons verts que l’auteur canadienne Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942) écrivit, puis publia en juin 19081. Cet anniversaire aurait pu passer quelque peu inaperçu dans l’univers de l’animation, si Takahata Isao (Le tombeau des lucioles, Omohide Poro Poro, Pompoko) n’avait réalisé la magnifique série Akage no Anne / Anne aux cheveux roux adaptant cette aventure. Hasard du temps qui s’écoule, depuis avril 2008, LCJ propose enfin une édition française en DVD. Celle-ci se composera de 4 coffrets couvrant les 50 épisodes qui furent diffusés au Japon du 7 janvier au 30 décembre 1979, cela dans le cadre annuel des séries Sekai Meisaku Gekijô2. Si l’édition est française, la seule version proposée est québécoise, la série ayant été diffusée en cette province en 1989. C’est ainsi la première occasion pour le public français de la découvrir, celle-ci n’ayant jamais été diffusée dans l’hexagone. L’histoire contait, en 1876, la vie d’Anne Shirley, une jeune orpheline adoptée à sa onzième année par Matthew Cuthbert et sa sœur Marilla. Cette adoption fut le fruit d’une erreur, les Cuthbert ayant demandé, par une intermédiaire, un jeune garçon qui aurait pu aider Matthew dans ses travaux. Mais s’attachant rapidement à cette enfant, qui de la joie d’être chez eux, pleure de n’y plus être, ils décident de l’adopter.

(Acid in papers, adhesives, plastics and albums can cause your photos to fade and spot.) What Do I Need to Get Started? Not only is scrapbooking fun and creative, it is also easy and inexpensive to get started. To get going, we recommend the following basic items: Package of Acid-Free Cardstock (20-30 sheets) on which to place photos. Archival Page Protectors in which to place finished photos. Photo-Fix Adhesive (or a tape runner adhesive)—Never use glue on photos! The photo fix is a double-sided adhesive square that you simply place on the back of your photo; it will hold the photo in place on the acid-free paper. Pigment-Ink Black Pen—We recommend either the ZIG Millennium pen (available in five tip widths), the ZIG Twin Tip Writer pen, or a Stabilo pencil. Remember to use a pigment-ink pen to write on the back of your photos—and be sure to give the ink a few seconds to dry. Never write on the back of your photos with a ballpoint pen! Oval or Circle Template—This will allow you to crop (cut) your photos into a shape. When shaping a photo, be sure that you don’t cut out any important “historical” information (such as avocado-green refrigerators!).

  • “Mute Misery”: Speaking the Unspeakable in L
    Chapter Six “Mute Misery”: Speaking the unspeakable in L. M. Montgomery’s Anne Books Hilary Emmett “Anne, you have talked even on for ten minutes by the clock,” said Marilla. “Now, just for curiosity’s sake, see if you can hold your tongue for the same length of time.” ~ Anne of Green Gables (93) “I was often very hungry before I came to Green Gables—at the orphanage…and before. I’ve never cared to talk of those days.” ~ Anne of Ingleside (245) When the orphaned Anne has mistakenly, but fortuitously, been left at Bright River station, the very first thing we learn about her is that she has, in the words of the stationmaster, “a tongue of her own, that’s for certain” (11). From this moment, Anne’s interaction with every new person she meets is characterized by her ceaseless chatter and her comical employment of all sorts of “big words” to express her even bigger ideas (15). Yet while Lucy Maud Montgomery’s series of Anne novels continually draw attention to her heroine’s prodigious gifts of verbal and written expression, there are some notable scores on which Anne remains if not precisely silent, then, at the very least, tongue-tied. In this chapter, I explore that which is repressed by the irrepressible Anne. Although repressed, ideas and events deemed unspeakable by Anne and her intimates nevertheless insinuate their way into their discourse and are eventually given textual enunciation. Traumatic events in the Anne novels present particular obstacles to free expression. Much is left unsaid in Montgomery’s rendering of such circumstances as Anne’s miserable childhood before she came to Green Gables, and her responses to the deaths which frame the series: that of her beloved father-figure Matthew in the first novel, and that of her son Walter, in the series’ final installment, Rilla of Ingleside.

(Washington Post)For the millions of readers who devoured the Green Gables series, Before Green Gables is an irresistible treat; the account of how one of literatures most beloved heroines became the girl who captivated the world. As an avid Anne of Green Gables fan, I was desperately wishing for some Anne material that I hadnt read six times already. This was a pretty good attempt on such material. I thought the author really captured Anne well, and thought up some really good back story material. The characters, even the bad ones, werent one-dimensional, so she didnt really make out Anne to be a victim which was so appreciated. However, the stories are very sad for the most part, and of course theyre missing just that spark that only L.M. Montgomery could put into them. Of course, it is fitting because Annes surroundings werent as charming and idyllic as they were in Montgomerys stories, so the book is a good fit into what we know of Annes background.
