The Great War and Scottish Nurses’ Diaries
This book analyses the representations of the different instances of war in the letters and diaries of the nurses and doctors of the Scottish Women’s Hospitals who worked in Romania during the Great War. These nurses detailed their experiences into journals through literary diegesis that included minute observations on their work, surroundings, and different developments of the front, as well as their own interpretations of, and impressions on, their work and the war’s destructive character. Generally, the approaches to the Great War by women who witnessed and lived it have either been gender-oriented or, simply, seen as petit histoire(s). This research represents a complementary addition to the existing literature, through its focus on the experience of the women on the fighting front, looking at it from the double perspective of autobiographical writing and war testimony.

Mass with Mary
Mass With Mary is a candid depiction of what began on February 6th, 1998 when Mary Kay Letourneau arrived at the Washington Corrections Center for Women in Gig Harbor. Written by three inmates, convicted of three entirely different crimes, comes the actual account of what happened in prison to the teacher sentenced to 7 years for having an intimate relationship (and two children) with her student. The book is more than just a "Mary Kay" story. The lives of two other women and the intertwined relationships they had with Letourneau, are shared throughout the book. This is a real look at some of the things that happen at a maximum security prison. This book covers everything from sex to suicide. Mass With Mary: The Prison Years was written from behind the prison walls and each page was smuggled out through the visiting room, outgoing mail and any other way possible. "It was an unlikely trio, who gave their book an unlikely title Mass With Mary because that was often the only place prison officials would allow them to be together."

Kissing the Sorrow
The book’s fundamental premise is that “truth must be conveyed.” The lies must be put to an end. Furthermore, forgiveness is the most effective means of achieving peace. Allow yourself to lose your pride in order to live a calm life. Kissing the Sorrow depicts Zhyryll Kyth Zate’s struggle to overcome the challenges she has faced for a long period. She is determined to avenge his father’s death since she finds it difficult to comprehend that she met her biological father in such a short period of time. She went to the location where everything transpired at one once. From her father’s memories to the person she loves the most. Despite her feelings for Casius Ian Salazar, she never forgets why she came to the location. As time passes, Zhyryll’s affections for Cian grow stronger. Behind every wonderful moment they have, there is always a bad moment they have had, and this is what makes them strong.
Hokusai 36 Views of Mount Fuji
The beauty of art is necessary for happiness. In everyday life the arts give that extra dimension to life that makes it a great adventure. The art and design in buildings, city planning, gardens and parks, roads, bridges, everything that we use daily contributes to a happy and fulfilling life. Ugly buildings, sloppy design, poor quality workmanship, littering and defacing contributes to a miserable life. Why would you want a miserable life? Why would you want to impose a miserable life on others? Hokusai was not only a truly great artist. He also sent a message to common people, who could afford to buy his low cost prints. He conveyed the beauty of majesty, the mount Fujijama, in life. He co...
Hiroshige 36 Views of Mt Fuji 1852
Utagawa Hiroshige ́s two Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series, 1852 and 1858 are both a copy act and in themselves innovative artistic endeavors. Katsushika Hokusai published his famous series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji in 1830-1832 and it influenced Hiroshige tremendously to his own series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji series 1852 which we deal with here. It is in the same horizontal format for landscapes that Hokusai used. In a subsequent series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji published in 1858 Hiroshige shifted to the vertical portrait format with novel and interesting results. We deal with that in a separate volume. It is possible to travel to see the same sites today and enjoy the views of Mt Fuji, which is still very important to the Japanese.
