How LM Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables Contributed to Polish Solidarity
Beyond Philology No. 14/4, 2017 ISSN 1732-1220, eISSN 2451-1498 Canadian utopia in Poland: How L. M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables contributed to Polish Solidarity SHAWNA GUENTHER Received 7.10.2017, received in revised form 30.11.2017, accepted 11.12.2017. Abstract L. M. Montgomery’s 1908 novel, Anne of Green Gables, about a young, socially-awkward Nova Scotian girl adopted by a family in Prince Edward Island, a novel that expresses the sentiments of the North American “New Woman” movement and markedly exhibits post-colonialist imperialism, has produced a young heroine who stands in solidarity with civil resistance in occupied Poland. Given that Montgomery was descendent of the white English/Scottish Protestant invader culture on PEI, complicit in the marginalization and deportation of French settlers and in the annihilation (literally and metaphorically) of the indigenous Mi’kmaq, the idealistic trans- formation of Montgomery’s famous Anne character into a symbol of political defiance seems, to me, incredible. In this article, I illustrate the utopic vision that Montgomery, and indeed Anne herself, create on Prince Edward Island and examine how that isolated, island uto- pia, and Anne become transfixed into heroic visions in war-time Po- land. Key words utopia, Canada, children’s literature, Poland 98 Beyond Philology 14/4 Kanadyjska utopia w Polsce: Co Ania z Zielonego Wzgórza L. M.

Rosemary Ross Johnston Words, Are Matched Equally with a Discerning and Often Humorous Perception of the Wider World
introduction introduction pertaining to life writing and autobiography, church history, photography and even fashion - fits in very well with CREA ethos. It is a tribute to Montgomery's writing and indeed her depiction of landscape, that, as part of her intensely subjective descriptions, so much detail from 'real' life was included, so naturally. This is a writer whose great skills with narrative and storytelling and character, and whose abilities to enchant with Rosemary Ross Johnston words, are matched equally with a discerning and often humorous perception of the wider world. It is with great pleasure that I introduce this collection of essays that had its genesis in This is also a writer whose work - despite its 'old-fashioned' urge to lengthy description the Sixth Biennial International Conference of the L.

Looking Glass Lore: Jeffrey Canton - Why Canadian Writers Love Emily of New Moon ! Looking Glass Lore
The Looking Glass : New Perspectives on Children’s Literature - !17 - Vol 2, No 3 (1998) Looking Glass Lore: Jeffrey Canton - Why Canadian Writers Love Emily of New Moon ! Looking Glass Lore Jeffrey Canton, editor ! Why Canadian Writers Love Emily of New Moon by Jeffery Canton ! One of the most interesting chapters in Arlene Perly Rae's Everybody's Favourites: Canadians Talk About Books That Changed Their Lives focuses on L.M. Montgomery's Emily trilogy -- Emily of New Moon (1923), Emily Climbs (1925) and Emily's Quest (1927). Adult novelists Alice Munro, Anne Shortall and Jane Urquhart, critic Val Ross, children's book writers Budge Wilson and Kit Pearson all eloquently describe the effect that these three books had on their subsequent careers as writers. In Writing Stories, Making Pictures: Biographies of 150 Canadian Children's Authors and Illustrators, Mary Alice Downie and Claire Mackay also testify to the influence of the Emily books. There is little doubt that L.M. Montgomery is the single most influential writer in the Canadian children's literature canon. Over and over again, children's and adult writers alike cite her 1908 classic, Anne of Green Gables and its sequels as well as books like The Blue Castle, Jane of Lantern Hill and The Story Girl. But it is the Emily books that seem to have had the most pervasive influence on contemporary Canadian writers. In Sheila Egoff's classic overview of Canadian children's literature, The Republic of Childhood, Anne of Green Gables is the only one of Montgomery's works included in Egoff's evaluation, and Anne herself receives only the most cursory of nods. -
Akage No Anne ~ Takahata Isao ~ 1979 Akage No Anne
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. -

This paper will study the problem of identity in the novel of the American horror writer Stephen King’s The Shining. I am going to analyse this novel paying special attention to that topic, and in order to do so I will use an important tool which is the conceptual apparatus of psychoanalysis. I will use Žižek’s How to Read Lacan and The Plague of Fantasies because these two works will be useful to understand certain concepts of psychoanalysis and to apply them to the analysis of the novel. I will argue that the novel can be analyzed through psychoanalysis in order to be understood in depth. My aim is to see how using a conceptual apparatus changes the way I read the novel. -
Before Green Gables Anne of Green Gables
Before Green Gables Anne of Green Gables 100th Anniversary Edition Scrapbooking Made Easy Scrapbooking is the creative preservation of your photographs and memorabilia in an acid-free, photo-safe manner. (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!). Remember only to crop photos for which you have negatives—never crop polaroids. Personal Trimmer—This allows you to cut perfectly straight lines every time! Need more ideas?

This research blends feminist media and literature analysis in an investigation of the representation of girlhood in Anne with an E, the 2017 to 2019 CBC & Netflix television program. This work focuses on Anne with an E, the Kevin Sullivan 1984 film, the 1934 George Nicholls Jr. film, and the original novel based on Anne’s Bildungsroman characteristics. Through the analysis of how Anne and the narrative interact with concepts of gender, race, class, sexuality, and ability status, emerges how the very definition of what it means to be a ‘girl’ and how it has changed. -
Views and Mementoes of Her Children’S Early Years, and Several More Containing Her Own Mementoes Or Souvenirs
Cutting and Pasting: What L.M. Montgomery’s Island Scrapbooks Reveal about Her Reading DOI https://doi.org/10.32393/jlmms/2021.0008 Published on Mon, 04/05/2021 - 06:49 The text below is an introduction to and synopsis of “Cutting and Pasting: What L.M. Montgomery’s Island Scrapbooks Reveal about Her Reading,” a paper (available below in video form) first presented to the L.M. Montgomery international conference L.M. Montgomery and Reading in June 2018 and recorded on 31 July 2018 at the University of Prince Edward Island. An Introduction to Cutting and Pasting As most of us know, L.M. Montgomery was a record-keeper of the first order—in her volumes of journals and hundreds of letters, as well as in a number of scrapbooks, twelve of which contain the bulk of her published stories and poems. She also kept scrapbooks of her own book reviews and mementoes of her children’s early years, and several more containing her own mementoes or souvenirs. All of these scrapbooks are kept either in the University of Guelph Library Archival and Special Collections or at the Confederation Centre of the Arts in Charlottetown. Montgomery kept two scrapbooks of souvenirs during her Cavendish years (c. 1893–1911), the years in which she was beginning to publish many poems and stories and, eventually, her first novels, including Anne of Green Gables (1908). These scrapbooks, known as Montgomery’s Island Scrapbooks, are identified by the colours of their covers: the Blue Scrapbook and the Red Scrapbook. They are among many Montgomery items now kept in the Confederation Centre of the Arts. -

“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.
