ISBN: 9781869421564 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 58 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Irish Annals of New Zealand is essentially a Joycean tour-de-force through New Zealand's history from the Irish rather than the usual English point of view.

During the course of the novel he is visited by several of his ancestors, Irish and Maori, who tell him about his life. He also turns into...

Exactly half of those pilots who...

Wednesday's Women: Social and literary constraints on women writers in NZ: 1945-1970
ISBN: 9781869421632 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 114 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Wednesday's Women This study explores the reasons why so few women writers in Aotearoa New Zealand were seen as prominent figures in the literary scene from the end of World War Two up to the time when the feminist movement gained momentum, in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Using feminist methodology, I examine whether women writers were deliberately under-represented and their work trivialised by the male writers, critics and publishers of the time. What were the factors accounting for this under-representation? I also discuss to what extent there were successes and achievements, either...

Every year the Administration and the Congress battle stubbornly and often bitterly over appropriations for foreign aid. Clearly much more is at stake than a difference of opinion over a small fraction of the annual budget: the tug-of war stems from clashes of basic political philosophies, divergent approaches to one of the most important elements of our foreign policy, and inherent confl icts among various domestic power blocs.
