He left the pleasant dinner party somewhat depressed in spirit. She was and remains a central figure for me.” Michael Chabon has said that Le Guin’s writing “helped shape my way of thinking about men and women, love and war. Best known for her science fiction Hainish novels and stories, which include The Left Hand of Darkness (1969) and The Dispossessed (1974), as well as for her fantasy series Earthsea, her work has influenced a host of modern writers, including Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, David Mitchell, Salman Rushdie, Zadie Smith, and Algis Budrys. Her books, whether science fiction, fantasy, or historical fiction, challenge our ideas of what’s natural and inevitable in human relations-and celebrate courage, endurance, risk-taking, and above all, freedom. Le Guin’s career as novelist, poet, essayist, translator, and children’s book writer spanned more than half a century, and earned her five Nebulas and five Hugos, among many other awards, and in 2014 she was awarded the National Book Foundation Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. Kroeber, and a best-selling biographer, Theodora Kroeber. Le Guin was born in Berkeley, California, the daughter of a pioneering anthropologist, Alfred L. Riley’s motives to be realistic, the narrator makes this explicit declaration, shows how much The Mill on the Floss means to draw the reader’s attention to its naturalness, to how likely there is to be a Maggie or a Mr. This world, then, is implicitly not the “world of the dramatist.” It is instead a realistic world where lives are spoiled through “small frauds” and “lazy acquiescence,” not by grand acts of evil. Stelling so strongly to the Tullivers, she insists that that kind of behavior belongs “in the world of the dramatist” only. Riley motives of self-interest for recommending Mr. This passage highlights Eliot’s interest in realism. It is easy enough to spoil the lives of our neighbours without taking so much trouble: we can do it by lazy acquiescence and lazy omission, by trivial falsities for which we hardly know a reason, by small frauds neutralised by small extravagances, by maladroit flatteries, and clumsily improvised insinuations.” 22 “Plotting covetousness, and deliberate contrivance, in order to compass a selfish end, are nowhere abundant but in the world of the dramatist: they demand too intense a mental action for many of our fellow-parishioners to be guilty of them.

As he explores questions progressive evangelical readers of Scripture commonly face yet fear voicing, Enns reveals that they are the very questions that God wants us to consider-the essence of our spiritual study. The Bible Tells Me So chronicles Enns’s spiritual odyssey, how he came to see beyond restrictive doctrine and learned to embrace God’s Word as it is actually written. Is this what God really requires? How could God’s plan for divine inspiration mean ignoring what is really written in the Bible? These questions eventually cost Enns his job-but they also opened a new spiritual path for him to follow. Rejecting the increasingly complicated intellectual games used by conservative Christians to “protect” the Bible, Enns was conflicted. But the further he studied the Bible, the more he found himself confronted by questions that could neither be answered within the rigid framework of his religious instruction or accepted among the conservative evangelical community. Trained as an evangelical Bible scholar, Peter Enns loved the Scriptures and shared his devotion, teaching at Westminster Theological Seminary. The controversial Bible scholar and author of The Evolution of Adam recounts his transformative spiritual journey in which he discovered a new, more honest way to love and appreciate God’s Word. In a rush to bring his most popular (and profitable) stories to market, British and American translators repeatedly watered them down and abridged them by chopping out most of the science and the longer descriptive passages (often from 20 to 40% of the original) they committed thousands of basic translating errors. Scholars now unanimously agree that the early English translations of Verne's Voyages Extraordinaires were extremely shoddy and often bear little resemblance to their original French counterparts. That, and haste, ignorance, and, apparently, sheer arrogance led many of them to "massacre" his work, as translator William Butcher describes it (quoted in Evans, p. Evans, French scholar and editor of the book under review.Įarly on, English-language publishers seem to have decided Verne was a writer for boys. An excellent overview of the problems is given in " Jules Verne's English Translations" ( Science Fiction Studies, XXXII:1 #95 : 80-104), by Arthur B. Verne has been subjected to bad, even horrible, translations perhaps more than any author of his stature and popularity, and perhaps because of that very popularity. There's been a renaissance in English translations of Jules Verne, which began slowly perhaps fifty years ago and lately seems to have picked up steam (appropriately enough). |
