  • <p>An interdisciplinary study of Katherine Anne Porter’s troubled relationship to her Texas origins and southern roots, <em>South by Southwest</em> offers a fresh look at this ever-relevant author.</p> <p>Today, more than thirty years after her death, Katherine Anne Porter remains a fascinating figure. Critics and biographers have portrayed her as a strikingly glamorous woman whose photographs appeared in society magazines. They have emphasized, of course, her writingー particularly the novel <em>Ship of Fools</em>, which was made into an award-winning film, and her collection <em>Pale Horse, Pale Rider</em>, which cemented her role as a significant and original literary modernist. They have highlighted her dramatic, sad, and fragmented personal life. Few, however, have addressed her uneasy relationship to her childhood in rural Texas.</p> <p>Janis P. Stout argues that throughout Porter’s life she remained preoccupied with the twin conundrums of how she felt ab...

  • <p>In 1920, an unknown journalist named Katherine Anne Porter first sojourned in Mexico. When she left her "familiar country" for the last time in 1931, she was the celebrated author of Flowering Judas and Other Stories and had accumulated a wealth of experiences and impressions that would inspire numerous short stories, essays, and reviews, as well as the opening section of her only novel, Ship of Fools. In this perceptive study of Porter's Mexican experiences, Thomas Walsh traces the important connections between those events and her literary works. Separating fact from the fictions that Porter constantly created about her life, he follows the active role that she played in Mexican political and intellectual lifeーeven to the discovery of a plot to overthrow the Mexican government, which eventually figured in Flowering Judas. Most important, Walsh discerns how the great swings between depression and elation that characterized Porter's emotional life influenced her alternating vi...

  • <p><em>Katherine Anne Porter Remembered</em> is a collection of reminiscences and memoirs by contemporaries, friends, and associates of Porter offering a revealing and intimate portrait of the elusive and complex American writer.</p> <p>From a fractured and vagabond girlhood in Texas, Porter led a wildly itinerant life that took her through five marriages, innumerable love affairs, and homes in Colorado, New York, Paris, Mexico, Louisiana, California, and Maryland. With very little formal education, she grew through sheer force of will to become a major American writer of short stories and the author of several books including <em>Flowering Judas</em> and other stories*; Ship of Fools; Pale Horse; Pale Ride; Noon Wine;* and <em>The Collected Stories of Katherine Anne Porter</em>, which won both the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award.</p> <p>Because of Porter’s own dissembling and half-truths about her life, as well as the numerous factual errors that pe...

  • <p>Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 1, University of Vienna, language: English, abstract: In this seminar paper I am going to deal with Katherine Anne Porter's short story Old Mortality, which was first published in the Southern Review, in 1937 (Literature Online Biography). Initially, I am going to depict Katherine Anne Porter's life as well as the autobiographical elements which permeate Old Mortality. However, the central focus of this paper lies on the representation of the short story and its main issues like family and home in addition to the portrayal of memory. Furthermore, it provides facts about the socio-cultural and historical background as well as information on narrative technique and cultural signifiers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

  • <p>De Spaanse griepepidemie verandert voorgoed het leven van een jonge Amerikaanse journaliste in het titelverhaal in deze gekroonde bundel uit 1939. ‘Vaal paard, vale ruiter’ van de Amerikaanse schrijfster Katherine Anne Porter is de klassiek geworden bundeling uit 1939 van drie korte romans. De gelijknamige titelvertelling is een bij vlagen mystiek verhaal dat zich afspeelt op de smalle lijn tussen het leven en de dood. De jonge journaliste Miranda ? Porters alter ego ? wordt tijdens de Spaanse griepepidemie ernstig ziek. In haar koortsdromen raken jeugdherinneringen vermengd met angstvisioenen van haar verloofde, een soldaat die op het punt staat om uitgezonden te worden naar de loopgraven van Europa. ‘Noenwijn’ is een beklijvend verhaal over tragedie en schandalen op een klein melkveebedrijf in Texas. En in ‘Oude sterfelijkheid’ volgen we Miranda terug in de tijd, naar haar jeugd op het platteland en pogingen om zich daaraan te ontworstelen. Harde en tragische waarheden worden...

  • <p>Katherine Anne Porter (1890-1980) produced a relatively small body of fiction, but she wrote thousands and thousands of letters. The present selection of 135 unexpurgated letters, written to seventy-four different persons, begins with a 1916 letter written from a tuberculosis sanatorium in Texas and ends with a 1979 letter dictated to an unnamed nursing-home attendant in Maryland. Different from any previous selection, this body of letters does not omit Porter's frank criticism of fellow writers and spans her entire life. Within that circumscription is the chronicle of Porter, a twentieth-century woman searching for love while she struggles to become the writer she is sure she can be. <br>Porter's letters vividly showcase the twentieth century as the writer observes it from her historical vantage points--tuberculosis sanatoria and the influenza pandemic of 1918; the leftist community in Greenwich Village in the 1920s; the Mexican cultural revolution of the 1920s and early 193...

  • <p>In this groundbreaking study, Gary M. Ciuba examines how four of the South's most probing writers of twentieth-century fiction -- Katherine Anne Porter, Flannery O'Connor, Cormac McCarthy, and Walker Percy -- expose the roots of violence in southern culture. Ciuba draws on the paradigm of mimetic violence developed by cultural and literary critic Ren? Girard, who maintains that individual human nature is shaped by the desire to imitate a model. Mimetic desire may lead in turn to rivalry, cruelty, and ultimately community-sanctioned -- and sometimes ritually sanctified -- victimization of those deemed outcasts. Ciuba offers an impressively broad intellectual discussion that gives universal cultural meaning to the southern experience of desire, violence, and divinity with which these four authors wrestled and out of which they wrote.<br /> In a comprehensive analysis of Porter's semiautobiographical Miranda stories, Ciuba focuses on the prescribed role of women that Miranda imi...
