Piše Bojan Sedmak, bere Dejan Kaloper. Suzana Zagorc je v svojem tretjem romanu Ne poznam je poglobila motive iz prejšnjih dveh. Pred desetletjem je pod naslovom Kaj pa vidva čakata?! izšla njena »zgodba para, ki ga odločitev za otroka pelje od uradne preko alternativne medicine vse do osebnostne preobrazbe«. V prvencu je v prvoosebni izpovedi obravnavala probleme upadanja fertilnosti nekaj let pred s kresnikom nagrajenimi Pričakovanji Anje Mugerli. V drugem romanu Ne me silit, da ti lažem je polje boja za literarno navzočnost razširila na ženske-moške odnose v zakonih in zunaj njih. V dinamično izpisanih prigodah dveh junakinj je izkazala talent za razgradnjo razmerij, okoli katerih se vrtinčijo duše prešuštnih mož in žena – tam se med poročnimi kalupi iščeta prijateljici v neskladnih situacijah, ko se ena spopada z moževim varanjem, druga pa prav to počne svojemu. Čeprav roman Ne poznam je prvenstveno ni posvečen takšnim peripetijam solidno situiranih meščanov, tudi v njem dogajanje ne poteka brez osvobajanja junakinj izpod omoženih in tokrat predvsem delovnih obveznosti. Službena izčrpanost namreč napoti protagonistko v iskanje osvežilnih sokov iz družinskih korenin in v popestritev zakona s starimi in novimi zaljubljenostmi – takšen bi bil lahko povzetek romana v nekaj besedah. V nasprotju s prvencem je v noviteti pomembna avtoričina opomba, da so pripetljaji iz knjige zgolj plod njene domišljije in da je vsaka povezava z resničnostjo zgolj naključna in nenamerna. Z drugim romanom, prav tako opremljenim s pojasnilom o izmišljenih osebah, krajih in dogodkih, pa vsebino spaja splošno razpoloženje pripovedi, pri čemer prednjači nanašanje na ideje žensk, ki tečejo z volkovi. Uspešnica jungovske psihoanalitičarke Clarisse Pinkole Estés, ki je prisotna v motu Ne me silit, da ti lažem, na svojevrsten način obeležuje tudi zaključek zgodbe romana Ne poznam je, ko se protagonistka prijavi v projekt popisovanja volkov v kočevskih gozdovih. In tudi sicer je skozi vsa besedila Suzane Zagorc razpredeno pomembno sporočilo Žensk, ki tečejo z volkovi – za živalsko podstat človeškega partnerstva je uporabljeno vodenje krdela, ki si ga z dokončno zvestobo deli volčji par, pri ključnih odločitvah pa se trop ravna po usmerjanju samice. Izkaže se, da je tako tudi s prvoosebno pripovedovalko Katjo, ko se na zadnjih straneh besedila znajde v razrešeni dilemi med zakonskim in gozdnim možem. Čeprav razgledana pisateljica omenja tudi Lacana, je v psihologiji komunikacije med spoloma bolj naklonjena jungovskim arhetipom; v literarni tradiciji pa spada v dolgo linijo pisk, ki so že v vznikih romana v 18. in 19. stoletju količinsko v stotinah zaznamovale književnost zahoda. Poleg bolj izpostavljenih Jane Austin, sester Brontë in Mary Shelley so danes bolj ali manj neznane avtorice izdajale številne romane; v kanon pa so se z analizo odnosov med spoloma vpisovali predvsem moški, ki so ženske, željne pravic do lastnih užitkov, fiksirali v fatalke ali pošiljali v lekarne po arzenik ali pod vlak. Od takrat je ljubezen na zahodu doživela številne preobrazbe intimnosti, od sufražetk do zahtev gibanja 'jaz tudi' je tako v ženski agendi nenehno soočanje s situacijami podvojenega dela, družinskih in družbenih služnosti, najbrž tudi glavnega razloga za medlečo nataliteto liberalno-demokratskega zahoda. In tudi za izgorelost službeno sposobne, učinkovite in uspešne Katje Fink Naglič, protagonistke romana Ne poznam je. Razpisi za investicije v javni upravi terjajo od prizadevne upravnice stalno pripravljenost na odgovorno komunikacijo in koncentracijo in če je ta zavezana z marljivo delovno etiko, je pred duševnim sesutjem ne zmore obvarovati zgolj poslovna psihoterapija. Ta itak deluje kot vključeno popravilo za žrtve kapitalistične neusmiljenosti ter kot lek ponuja predvsem začasen počitek, še najbolj v naravi. Zatekanje vanjo ponuja junakinji romana, izčrpani ženi, materi in hčeri, vpoglede v belokranjske pejsaže in prebolevnica se v teh odlomkih izkaže kot poznavalka favne in flore, gob, rib, dreves. Med slednjimi v prologu čustveno pooseblja Smreko, Hrast, Gaber in Bor, med pticami pa razlikuje liščke, škrjance, grilčke, srakoperje, škorce, ščinkavce, čižke, zelence, brgleze, kaline, meniščke, lastovice, kukavice … In ker je bilo in je spoznavanje narave in družbe enovit predmet proučevanja, dodaja Katja v dogajanje ob pastoralno idiliko zgodovinske elemente z raziskovanjem svojih družinskih debel vse do uskoških prednikov. V njih je pozorna na značajsko močne ženske; za zgled na primer izpostavlja eno med njimi, ki je bila sposobna priti čez ocean v Ameriko pred vrata svojega moškega le z naslovom na listku, kar je bilo pred stoletji seveda težje kot danes. Kakorkoli že, debla je mogoče preučevati tudi sinhrono, s kolobarnimi prerezi, pri čemer se razpira sestava sedanjosti; v tej pa ne prevladujejo jin-jangovska harmonična, dopolnjujoča se razmerja, ampak asimetrična razmerja med ženskimi in moškimi principi delovanja. Mogoče jih res oblikujejo hormoni, a la testosteron in oksitocin, zaradi katerega naj bi bile ženske bojda bolj empatične kot moški – saj so baje z Venere, moški pa z Marsa, in se one menda sporazumevajo bolj zaradi komunikacije same, oni pa le zato, da bi s sporočanjem kaj postorili – a so oboji vpeti v primeže sistema, ki enako škodi človeškosti v vseh ljudeh. Ne nazadnje je tudi Katjin mož Rok – dokaj nebogljen v zadevah, ki ne služijo profitu – podvržen obsedenosti z ekonomskim statusom, pogojenim z dobičkom. In v tem smislu je morda bolj kot delovno izgorevanje preskrbljenih zaposlenih dandanes boleče depresivno hiranje brezposelnih, ker so pač brezposelnih, o čemer pa v romanu Ne poznam je ni mogoče izvedeti ničesar. In na koncu je morda zanimivo vprašanje, na koga se pravzaprav nanaša naslov. Avtorica Suzana Zagorc, ki ima v naslovih svojih del rada glagole, prepušča ugibanje tistim, ki jih bo besedilo pritegnilo. Vsekakor je s tretjim romanom potrdila svojo literarno zmogljivost in prepoznavnost, predvidoma predvsem pri ženskem bralstvu. In je Ne poznam je dobra priložnost, da se vsaj nekaj moških ove in se ne vpiše v tisto polovico ljudi, ki na leto ne preberejo nobene knjige. Če bodo z zadovoljstvom sledili zgodbi v noviteti Suzane Zagorc, bodo morda premislili in osvojili tudi njena spoznanja iz romanov Kaj pa vidva čakata?! in Ne me silit, da ti lažem. In tako morda nekoliko okrepili svojo čustveno inteligenco.

I vividly remember the day after Christmas 2022. Not because I was relaxing, but because I was at my laptop, updating my university courses and diving headfirst into AI tools for my business and podcast. ChatGPT had just launched, and I knew instantly: this was different. This wasn't just another tech trend; this was a transformation. In this episode, I share the talk I recently delivered at the ElleX Summit, where I wove together history, technology, and the urgent need for women's voices in AI. From Ada Lovelace and the women of NASA to Eleanor Roosevelt and the Brontë sisters, women have always shown up when new technologies emerged that gave them a voice and a platform. And now, it's our moment again. You'll hear: Why AI isn't just a tool - it's a force shaping how we work, teach, govern, and live Shocking examples of gender bias baked into AI systems Why your perspective, leadership, and storytelling are essential in this new era How I'm using AI to save time on the computer, so I can do more of the work that makes me feel human AI can either reinforce the past or help us create a more inclusive future. It's up to us to choose. Let's make sure future generations find plenty of women in the history books of this AI era.

Could You be Satire? Jo and Adam discuss the weird Netflix show about putting women in cages and quoting literature at them. Along the way, they chat about academia in popular culture, the dangers of quoting out of context, and the representation of Charlotte Brontë in memes and quotations. Then they explore the ways Brontë used her pen-name Curer Bell for satirical purposes, which Jo has written about in a forthcoming chapter - and her love-hate relationship with William Makepeace Thackeray. In a neat coincidence, Adam is about to give a talk at the literary society of The Reform Club in London, which takes its name from Thackeray ("The Thackeray Society"), so the hosts trail that and speculate on the breakfast he might have there.
Caoimhe, Antistrophe, Brontë arrived to Burzin with a clear goal: Find out whether the catastrophe in Burzin is tied to the mysterious malediction known only as Sourcerot. But seeing the town in ashes makes another objective clear: Stopping the fires from continuing, no matter what is causing them. Now, they seek answers that will lead them to investigate not only into the town's history, but into the lives of some of its oldest residents… This week on Perpetua: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 03 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.02] Town Maps [TNMP] Burzin Main Scenario Teribald's House of Chance This is where the main story route I took kicked off, but it's also where I lost a TON of asta. Wurdzin doesn't make any sense to me, but if you can get a lucky streak with your guesses, I guess you could really break the game economy here! House M'Shalia LOTS of lore here. There are way more things in the upstairs rooms and attics that you interact with than you might think. Make sure to turn on the option that makes interactables shiny! House of Benediction Obviously this is where the big showdown is, but did you know that if you go here during the day time you can get healed, get your debuffs cleansed, and get a buff! Town Hall & Jail & House Burzin I think you can advance through the main plot here instead of through the House of Chance/M'Shalia route, but I haven't had a chance to load my old save and try it yet. Let me know on the forum and I'l update this! Burned Down Buildings You can check for clues at each of these locations, but the most important one is in the southwest. That's where the Saloon burned down. Shops Mining Supplies This is basically a “tool store” from other towns, so if you need any consumables from those, you can get them here. Clean Water Lodge & Crebbs Potions & Poultices I listed these together because they share the same interior on screen, just with a door between the two front desks. You get to stay here for free as long as the main story is ongoing (assuming you rescued Frenk), so make sure to use it before you leave town. The next time you come back, he'll charge you!. Wilfer's Wits and Weaponry If you happen to have the asta, there are some pretty great weapons here! The Solium Bow (Dex+Dex, HR+8 Fire Damage, gives you Resistance to Fire) is especially great! Also, if you interact with the third bookcase three times, you can find “An Accounting of Spiritual Matters,” which gives you a huge bonus when fighting the boss here, plus can be used afterwards as a mage weapon. Serah's Surcoats I think the flame resistant armor is overpriced, but the Sungleam Shield is GREAT for Antistrophe. It's a big upgrade for both of his defenses, plus you can basically give people a solar flare from DBZ XD Side Quests / Other Residential District Mostly just NPCs to talk to about things here. I love the two brothers who hate each other. First Bank of Burzin Always remember to deposit any extra asta you have into the bank. Not only will it prevent you from losing some if you die in combat, it also actually slowly gains in value! I guess they have interest in Perpetua! Post Office This probably deserves its whole own entry, but did you know that if you have both East and West saves, you can actually transfer items between them? You just choose the “Send a Gift to a Random Person” option and pay the fee. The “random person” is actually a character in your other save game! It does take a little while to get there though. Abandoned Buildings Just a good place to grind against lanterns!

Hexcloak justiciar Caoimhe Wake and her two ad hoc assistant investigators, Antistrophe Landrace and Brontë Adelvys, have their work cut out for them. First and foremost, there's the matter of these strange, flaming creatures attacking a traveling Lobble and his stagecoach full of supplies. And then there's there's the matter of Burzin, the small desert township on the horizon. After generations of simplicity and stability, the town has faced a sudden wave of inexplicable destruction as a phenomenon that can only be described as “invisible fire” has razed much of the town to ash. Will Caoimhe, Antistrophe, and Brontë find who—or what—is behind the blaze? Or will what remains of Burzin soon be burned away? This week on Perpetua: The Flames of Burzin Pt. 2 Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.02] NPCs & Monsters [PNMS] Flarie [NMFLR] Typical Traits: Curious, Fickle, Scornful, Superior Stats: DEX 8, INS 10, MIG 6, WLP 8 Attacks: Flame Dart Special Abilities: Flying, Crisis: Wildfire In-Game Description: A devious flying flame, vaguely int he shape of a fairy. Flaries are cute, but they're also dangerous, especially early on! They're ranged attackers who hover just out of melee reach, so you'll need to either hit crit them or get them down to half health with ranged or magic attacks, or hit their elemental weakness. And remember, Perpetua doesn't have water magic for some reason, and Fire often Melts Ice! Any guesses on what that leaves as a natural vulnerability? That's right: EARTH. Toss some dirt on these little jerks and you'll bring ‘em down to ground level. Starter Tip: Get ready to heal once you knock them into crisis! Their Wildfire move is devastating! Embear [NMEMB] Typical Traits: Pround, Hungry, Scorching, Territorial Stats: DEX 8, INS 8, MIG 10, WLP 6 Attacks: Flame Claw Special Abilities: Burn Back (Reaction) In-Game Description: A large, ursine figure of fire looking for something to eat. These guys are the brawn to the Flaries'... well, not quite brains, but fla(i)r, I guess? At the start of the game, they really pack a wallop, so try to keep your weaker characters away from their Flame Claw strikes. I wonder what type of bear they're supposed to be? Do any bears really live in the dessert??? Starter Tip: At first blush, their Burn Back reaction attack seems totally broken. But remember, it only hits melee attackers! Aisling Revanj (she/her) [NMAR] Traits: Ambitious, Mean Spirited, Envious, Loyal Stats: ??? Attacks: ??? Spells: ??? In-Game Descriptions: Fiery Hexcloak who oversees Burzin and the surrounding region. When I first saw concept art of her during previous, I thought she'd be one of my favorite characters, but it turns out that she's an ABSOLUTE B**! She's so superior and “holier-than-thou,” if that's the right phrase. And it's not like she solves ANYTHING, she's just always getting int he way. I cannot WAIT to fight her later on in the game. Starter Tip: You can basically button through all of her dialog, she doesn't say anything important IMO! Hosted by Austin Walker (austinwalker.bsky.social) Featuring Janine Hawkins (@bleatingheart), Sylvi Bullet (@sylvibullet), and Keith J Carberry (@keithjcarberry) Produced by Ali Acampora Music by Jack de Quidt (available on bandcamp) Cover Art by Ben McEntee (https://linktr.ee/benmce.art) With thanks to Amelia Renee, Arthur B., Aster Maragos, Bill Kaszubski, Cassie Jones, Clark, DB, Daniel Laloggia, Diana Crowley, Edwin Adelsberger, Emrys, Greg Cobb, Ian O'Dea, Ian Urbina, Irina A., Jack Shirai, Jake Strang, Katie Diekhaus, Ken George, Konisforce, Kristina Harris Esq, L Tantivy, Lawson Coleman, Mark Conner, Mike & Ruby, Muna A, Nat Knight, Olive Perry, Quinn Pollock, Robert Lasica, Shawn Drape, Shawn Hall, Summer Rose, TeganEden, Thomas Whitney, Voi, chocoube, deepFlaw, fen, & weakmint This episode was made with support from listeners like you!

For millennia, the eastern continent of Perpetua was ruled by a sprawling empire centered on the capital city of Milsource, where a living river sprung from nothing, and flowed to all the edges of the land. The empire's reach followed the running water, stretching north across the territory of the clannish Elevana and south, where the empire put leash to the fractious burroughs. It was a time of Tyranny.. But one day, a thousand years ago, the river was mysteriously pulled away into the sea, leaving the empire as dry and cracked as the riverbeds it left behind. Soon, it passed into dust, and the future opened wide with possibility. In the south, the once-squabbling burroughs found themselves re-aligned towards freedom—a state they guaranteed bywith their impressive magic. And in the north, the once quarrelsome elven clans forged themselves into a powerful coalition of independent city states… By now, you have heard of Salix, the Balming Willow, home to adventurer Arley Bates… but do you know the rest of the Elevana League? Cenn, City of Iron Chains. Lumai, the Gleaming Fortress. Glaishora, Frosted Port Town. Billough, the Floating Isle. Fulmin, Storm-brushed Bay. Marl, Bustling Mountain Pass. Parisolia, Sun Scorched Mine. Shadow-Spired Umbexia. It is here, in the Elevana League, that our second group of heroes takes the stage. A wizard of the boroughs, drained of his magic. A rakish princeling far from home. And an arcane investigator who cares more for justice than peace. Hiking down the hills days south of Parisolia, towards a little town in the brush, where they've heard rumor that an entropic curse called Sourcerot has taken hold. Whether it's empty talk, a mundane threat to people's lives, or a grand premonition of Perpetua's end, they may be the only ones able or willing to confront it. This week on Perpetua: Perpetua Guide [In Progress v.02] Playable Characters - Eastern Scenario [PPCE] Antistrophe Landrace (he/him) [ALPC] Identity: Troubled, eccentric career pathfinder Theme: Doubt Origin: One of The Hundred Burroughs Classes: Guardian, Loremaster, Tinkerer Stats: DEX 6, INS 8, MIG 10, WLP 8 At the start of the game, Antistrophe is exactly what he looks like: A Huge Walking Fortress. With two shields and a ton of HP, he's going to be the guy you want taking hits for your team. He's ultra resilient and believe it or not, his high Might means that he can really do damage with those shields too! He also has a ton of utility in investigation scenes! Starter Tip: Antistrophe's Potion Rain ability is really random BUT it can give you effects that you cannot get from regular consumables from shops. If there's nothing to do (and no one needs to be defended that round) give it a shot! Brontë Adelvys (he/him) [BAPC] Identity: Dissipated Sixth Scion of the First Line Theme: Scintillation Origin: Terroir, Grande Sonnerie Classes: Sharpshooter, Rogue, Dancer Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 6, WLP 8 Brontë is a huge horndog, but he's also super powerful in combat. It's not just the ranged damage he does, and it's not even the bonus attacks he can get off, it's also all the negative status effects he can apply! In Perpetua, status effects are really powerful because of how they lower stats directly. Once you get over his quips and flirtations, you'll fall for his combat power. Plus he starts with a TON of extra asta. Starter Tip: Brontë isn't anywhere as tough as Antistrophe, BUT he does have a pair of cute bodyguards who can take hits for him. So he can be your defender in a pinch! Caoimhe Wake (she/her) [CWPC] Identity: Caoimhe Wake Theme: Doubt Origin: Billough, the Floating Isle Classes: Elementalist, Weaponmaster Stats: DEX 10, INS 8, MIG 6, WLP 8 Caoimhe (pronounced KEE-VAH, apparently) definitely feels like THE main character of the Eastern campaign. Not just because she's a badass Justiciar, but also because she's the classic Spellsword archetype that everyone loves. (I'm guilty too!) She's the party's main source of elemental damage, so definitely consider expanding her magical repertoire as you get her leveled up! Starter Tip: Ventus is an incredible spell, not least of all because it can hit flying targets and on a critical hit, ground them (allowing Caoimhe to follow up with melee attacks before they can get flying again!)

In THE FAMILY DYNAMIC: A Journey into the Mystery of Sibling Success (Crown; on sale May 6, 2025), the acclaimed New York Times journalist Susan Dominus offers compelling profiles of six such families in search of the factors that led to their success—was it an inherited quality, a specific way of parenting, the influence of a sibling, or a twist of luck? Inspired by the iconic Brontë sisters, whose remarkable literary success prompted endless speculation, Dominus, the mother of twin teenagers, sought out contemporary high-achieving families who shared intimate stories of their upbringing. She introduces us to the Chens, young parents who fled their country's one-child policy to open a Chinese restaurant in Appalachia—then sent four children to elite colleges and on to careers that give back in technology and medicine; the Groffs, whose claim to fame is not just an award-winning novelist but an Olympic athlete and a notable entrepreneur; the Wojcickis, whose daughters made inroads as STEM pioneers in Silicon Valley; and the Murguias, who rose from exceptionally humble origins to become powerful jurists and civil rights champions. Woven into these and other stories is an account of centuries of scientific research into the ongoing question of nature versus nurture. Elegantly written and extensively researched, The Family Dynamic is more than a checklist of how-to's. It's a deep and moving exploration of the complexity of family life and the rewards—and burdens—of ambition.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Jane Austen created the definitive picture of Georgian England. No writer matches Austen's sensitive ear for the hypocrisy and irony lurking beneath the genteel conversation. That's the argument of the Janeites, but to the aficionados of Emily Brontë they are the misguided worshippers of a circumscribed mind. In Wuthering Heights, Brontë dispensed with Austen's niceties and the upper-middle class drawing rooms of Bath and the home counties. Her backdrop is the savage Yorkshire moors, her subject the all-consuming passions of the heart. To help you decide who should be crowned queen of English letters we have the lined up the best advocates to make the case for each writer. In this event, chaired by author and critic Erica Wagner, we invited guests including author Kate Mosse, Professor and author John Mullan, and actors Mariah Gale, Samuel West and Dominic West, to discuss each writer's influence.

The novel is set in 2038 in Three Rivers, Texas. A corrupt industrialist is the mayor. Women are indentured laborers in a fish cannery. Reading books is against the law. Protagonist Neftalí is the last literate citizen of the town. What can she do to reclaim and help her city?
In this first episode of the new series of A brush with…, Ben Luke talks to the painter Celia Paul about her influences—including writers as well as contemporary and historic artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Paul was born in 1959 in Trivandrum, India, and now lives in London. She makes intense yet ruminative paintings of people close to her, the spaces in which she lives and works, and landscapes of poignant significance. Her paintings are made from life but are pregnant with memory, poetry and emotion, which she imbues in her distinctive painterly language. Her art possesses a rare tranquillity in which one perceives deep feeling; Paul wrote in her memoir that her paintings are “so private and personal that there's almost a ‘Keep Out' sign in front of them”. At once a singular figure yet also connected to strands of recent and historic figurative painting in Britain, she has been admired widely throughout her career but only recently been recognised as a major figure in British art of the past 40 years. She discusses the fact that she began painting before she knew about art, but when she was introduced to Old and Modern Masters, she discovered El Greco and Paul Cezanne, who remain important to her today. She also reflects on the compassion in Rembrandt and Vincent van Gogh, the stillness and scale of Agnes Martin and the elementary power of the novels of the Brontë sisters. She also describes her response in painting to the artists of the School of London, including Lucian Freud, with whom she was once in a relationship, and Frank Auerbach.Celia Paul: Colony of Ghosts, Victoria Miro, London, until 17 April 2025.

Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed Fernando A. Flores, author of the novel Brother Brontë. Set in Texas in 2038, it is a dark tale of a future where books are burned, the libraries are closed, and your neighbor may turn you in for having books. In the interview, Flores said, "...for those of us who have traveled to the valley by car, we've been through Three Rivers many times. And it's frightening because you posit an authoritarian police city-state with people that are coopted by the city-state, with people that resist the city-state, and with people that are just trying to get by, like our protagonist, Naftali, who's just trying to get by. And I say it's, it's a little bit frightening because of, you know, if, if you look at where we are today and where we could be in 13 years...I'm hoping it's not...prescient..."Fernando A. Flores was born in Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico, and grew up in South Texas. He is the author of the collections Death to the Bullshit Artists of South Texas and Valleyesque and the novel Tears of the Trufflepig, which was long-listed for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize and named a best book of 2019 by Tor.com. His fiction has appeared in the Los Angeles Review of Books Quarterly, American Short Fiction, Ploughshares, Frieze, Porter House Review, and elsewhere. He lives in Austin, Texas.

When Wuthering Heights was published in December 1847, many readers didn't know what to make of it: one reviewer called it ‘a compound of vulgar depravity and unnatural horrors'. In this extended extract from episode three of ‘Novel Approaches', Patricia Lockwood and David Trotter join Thomas Jones to explore Emily Brontë's ‘completely amoral' novel. As well as questions of Heathcliff's mysterious origins and ‘obscene' wealth, of Cathy's ghost, bad weather, gnarled trees, even gnarlier characters and savage dogs, they discuss the book's intricate structure, Brontë's inventive use of language and the extraordinary hold that her story continues to exert over the imaginations of readers and non-readers alike.To listen to the full episode, and all our other Close Readings series, subscribe:Directly in Apple Podcasts: https://lrb.me/applecrnaIn other podcast apps: https://lrb.me/closereadingsna Hosted on Acast.

Au 16ème siècle, Giordano Bruno, un frère dominicain italien, réussit à imaginer ce qui alors était inimaginable : la cosmologie infinitiste. Sans l'observer par des outils, par la seule force de son imagination. L'inquisition l'arrêtera et le condamnera pour hérésie. Il sera brulé au bucher. Aujourd'hui, tout nous pousse à ne plus imaginer. Les images qui abondent et nous écrasent, le quotidien incessant, les nouvelles technologies aussi… Pourtant, à travers l'histoire, ils et elles sont nombreux et nombreuses à avoir cru de toute leur force à l'imagination et à ses multiples bienfaits. Ursula K Le Guin, Tolkien, Robert Desnos, les sœurs Brontë, Vigrinia Woolf,… Alors, comment et pourquoi retrouver les chemins de l'imagination ? Nous recevons Laura El Makki, enseignante à Sciences Po et journaliste, autrice du livre « Petit éloge de l'imagination » paru aux Editions Les Pérégrines. Une séquence de Jonathan Rémy.

Valable jusqu'au 30/06/25.Le sujet des relations entre frères et sœurs passionne les chercheurs, mais qu'en est-il de la relation unique vécue par une fratrie de filles?Naître fille reste aujourd'hui dans bien trop de cultures un problème. Les chiffres font froid dans le dos, des millions de filles manquent à l'appel, parce que nées filles.Souvent caricaturée, la relation entre soeurs reste une sphère intime où l'on n'a pas assez exploré.Blanche Léridon, directrice éditoriale d'un think tank et enseignante à Sciences po vient de publier un essai intitulé : “Le château de mes sœurs” où elle plonge dans le monde incroyable des fratries féminines.Partager sa vie avec une ou plusieurs sœurs a été documenté à travers la pop culture ou les séries télé, mais jamais on ne s'était intéressé à sa structure, à son archéologie, à son histoire tout simplement.Dans cet épisode passionnant on s'éloigne des clichés, ici on parle de la rivalité supposée que ressentent des sœurs, de l'image de sorcières qu'elles peuvent véhiculer mais aussi de ce pouvoir magnifique d'avoir à ses côtés, une sœur.De Kardashian, au soeur williams en passant par les Brontë, Blanche Leridon nous embarque dans cet univers épique.

Our book this week is the classic love, revenge, and ghost story, Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, and my guest this week is Carrie Pruett.Carrie is a power user of the Henrico County, Virginia library. She loves books, movies, and also loves podcasts about books and movies. She frequently appears on the podcast 'Worst Bestsellers' to talk about teenage vampires and horse girls. When she was 13, she accidentally read 'Wuthering Heights' because her mom told her it was 'like Pride and Prejudice.' (It wasn't). Ever since then, she has enjoyed stories about terrible people who make bad decisions, especially if they do it in English country houses.Our drink this week is a Sam Smith beer from Yorkshire England, near the Moores where Wuthering Heights is set. Sam Smith is Yorkshire's oldest brewery, it even predates the Brontë sisters and was is a great drink to enjoy while reading this dark, brooding ghost storyIf you enjoy the show, please either head over to where you get your podcast and give me 5 stars and a review, or tell two people about it this week.

Today's poem grew out of an elaborate game of make-believe between the Brontë siblings, and gives some idea of the mature verse that might have been if Anne had not died young. Happy(?) reading.Anne Brontë (17 January 1820 – 28 May 1849) was an English novelist and poet, the youngest member of the Brontë literary family.Anne Brontë was the daughter of Maria (néeBranwell) and Patrick Brontë, a poor Irish clergyman in the Church of England. Anne lived most of her life with her family at the parish of Haworth on the Yorkshire Dales. Otherwise, she attended a boarding school in Mirfield between 1836 and 1837, and between 1839 and 1845 lived elsewhere working as a governess. In 1846, she published a book of poems with her sisters and later two novels, initially under the pen name Acton Bell. Her first novel, Agnes Grey, was published in 1847 at the same time as Wuthering Heights by her sister Emily Brontë. Anne's second novel, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, was published in 1848. The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is often considered one of the first feminist novels.Anne died at 29, most likely of pulmonary tuberculosis. After her death, her sister Charlotte edited Agnes Grey to fix issues with its first edition, but prevented republication of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. As a result, Anne is not as well known as her sisters. Nonetheless, both of her novels are considered classics of English literature.-bio via Wikipedia This is a public episode.

Welcome back listeners! Join Jen and Lane once again in diving deep into an absolute favorite of classic literature, Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights. In this twisted romance (or, should we even call it that?), dark themes provide the foundation for one of the most complex characters in the English canon: Heathcliff. Throughout the novel, Heathcliff's obsession, need for revenge, and constant plots lead to regular success, but at the devastating expense of those around him.And yet, perhaps his actions could be heroic romanticism? Could his obsession be more of a youthful passion, and his machinations born out of necessity, created by his surroundings? Are his actions towards those who took his love from him justified? Grab a cup of tea and decide for yourself!Episode Links:Referred to in the episode: • Céline Dion - It's All Coming Back to Me Now (YouTube.com link) • Emily Brontë: "I Am the Only Being Whose Doom" (Poetry Foundation) • Withering Heights is a Virgin's Story, and Other Opinions of Brontë's Classic (Lit Hub article)Buy the book: • Wuthering Heights (Bookshop.org paperback) • Wuthering Heights (libro.fm audiobook)Show Links: • Bards Alley Bookshop Website
Nous sommes en 1904. Virginia Stephen, pas encore Virginia Woolf, alors âgée de 22 ans, fait ses premiers pas dans le journalisme professionnel. Elle publie trois articles les 7, 14 et 21 décembre dans le Churchwoman, « Femme d'Eglise », le supplément féminin du Guardian. Y figurent une critique du romancier américain W.D. Howells et un reportage intitulé « Pilgrimage to Haworth » (Pèlerinage à Haworth), dans lequel elle relate sa visite au presbytère des sœurs Brontë. Ces premiers pas sont un tournant dans la vie de l'autrice de « Mrs Dalloway », « La Promenade au phare », « Les Vagues », « Orlando » … Le journalisme lui apparaît alors comme une voie d'émancipation. Des centaines d'articles qui vont lui servir de tribune pour s'exprimer et constituer, en quelques sortes, une « Une chambre à soi », pour reprendre le titre de l'un de ses plus célèbres essais, devenu quasiment expression courante. Le journalisme devient aussi sa première profession, avant qu'elle ne se consacre à la fiction, sans jamais l'abandonner. A quoi ressemble l'émancipation de Virginia Woolf ? En quoi est-elle une journaliste singulière ? Quels sont ses sujets de prédilection ? Pourquoi peut-on parler d'héritage familial ?

The first episode of 2025 of A brush with… features a conversation with Linder, who discusses her influences—from writers to musicians and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped her life and work. Born Linda Mulvey in Liverpool in 1954, she is best known for her photomontages, made from images found in books and magazines across six decades. They bring together sex and sexual politics, glamour and grit, satire and seduction. Since emerging in the punk era of the late 1970s—a culture whose DIY approach and unflinching attitude to society her work embodies—Linder has reinvigorated a radical tradition of avant-garde art-making while developing a singular voice. She reflects on the particularities of her native Britain while also addressing global struggles and themes, including feminism and class politics. She discusses her use of the scalpel as a “magic wand” in cutting up print material, her journey to Delphi and recent use of ancient Greek and Roman imagery, her fascination with Ithell Colquhoun and other Surrealists, the impact of reading Germaine Greer and the Brontës, how she has used the Playboy magazines once owned by the Brutalist architects Alison and Peter Smithson in a new body of work, and how she connects the Indian musical instruments, the dilruba and taus, with Barbara Hepworth. Plus, she answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: “What is art for”?This episode contains descriptions of abuse and sexual violence.Linder: Danger Came Smiling, Hayward Gallery, London, 11 February-5 May; a version of the show, curated by Hayward Gallery Touring, will travel across the UK in 2025 and 2026: Inverleith House, Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh, 23 May-19 October; Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea, 7 November 2025-8 March 2026; Grundy Art Gallery, Blackpool, 27 June-20 September 2026.

Bad Charlotte! *The phrase's meaning is that a bomb-maker is blown ("hoist", the past tense of "hoise") off the ground by his own bomb ("petard"), and indicates an ironic reversal or poetic justice.

We had a great time talking to Bronte Fall about her new album “Not Done Yet” (released October 25, 2024) and the special meaning behindthe title. We talked about having a good support system to help silence that inner critic, and how you don't have to “do it all at once.” Teri Bracken's career as Brontë Fall began almost accidentally. The singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who was born and raised in the Chicago suburbs had always been a music obsessive, dreaming of forming her own bands and playing on stages. While working as the “door girl” at an indie music venue in Chicago, a chance opportunity allowed her to bookher first gig as an artist. She quickly came up with a band name (honoring her favorite writers, the Brontë sisters), compiled all the original songs she had, and never, ever looked back. Fall's road to acclaimed songwriter began in childhood when she picked up piano at age 7. Classical violin lessons soon followed, and eventually she was tapped as the singer/violinist in a collegerock band with a group of nineties rock loving frat boys. After leaving the guys, she further pursued her passion for violin playing at Berklee, which is where she fell in love with songwriting once and for all. Fall eventually made her way to Nashville—a dream come true considering it is a songwriter's mecca. Though most of her instrumental focus is on guitar these days for pure convenience's sake, Fall still brings out her violin and even performs on piano during her shows—she never sings a note empty handed. These live shows and releases have earned her plenty of praise, with Music Mecca noting: "Finding beauty at the end is what Brontë Fall seems to always know how to do and listeners get to follow her journey alongside her.” After a family tragedy struck in 2022, Fall rededicated herself to her craft, emerging with plenty of scar tissue and a batch of new songs that she considers her best yet. That lineup is highlighted by "Woman Like Me.” The track is both a reminder of Fall's skills as asongwriter and a significant leap forward in both sound and style. It's a defining statement, the culmination of years grinding for a shot and, at the same time, a new beginning.

El libro es un relato de terror de la escritora inglesa Margaret Irwin (1889-1967), publicado originalmente en la edición de septiembre de 1930 en la revista The London Mercury, y luego reeditado en la antología de 1935: Madame le teme a la oscuridad. El libro, acaso uno de los mejores cuentos de Margaret Irwin, relata la historia del señor Corbett, un abogado pusilánime que comienza a traducir un extraño libro en latín que descubre en su biblioteca. A medida que avanza con la tarea, su percepción de la realidad empieza a cambiar, y un súbito instinto homicida se apodera de él. SPOILERS. Aburrido de su historia de detectives, el señor Corbett busca una lectura más fuerte a la hora de dormir. La estantería del comedor tiene una colección variada, pero nada le resulta apetecible. De repente vislumbra un libro antiguo con cierres oxidados, quizás uno de los «supervivientes moribundos» de la biblioteca de un tío clerical. Parece una buena lectura para calmar sus nervios alterados, excepto... El desayuno lo encuentra mejor, hasta que se da cuenta de que no hay ningún espacio en la estantería. Jean, la hija menor, dice que nunca hay un hueco en el segundo estante; no importa cuántos libros se saquen, siempre se vuelve a llenar. El señor Corbett comienza a disfrutar diseccionando autores venerados hasta sus motivaciones más básicas. ¡Qué lástima que sea solo un abogado pusilánime; con su mente aguda como la suya, debería haber alcanzado la grandeza! Incluso su familia es indigna: la señora Corbett es aburrida; su hijo, un insolente; sus hijas, insípidas. De modo que el señor Corbett se encierra en sus libros, buscando «alguna clave secreta de la existencia». Uno de los tomos teológicos de su tío lo intriga. Por desgracia, está escrito en latín. Sin embargo, toma prestado el diccionario de latín de Dickie y ataca el manuscrito con «ansiosa laboriosidad». El manuscrito, anónimo y sin título, termina abruptamente en páginas en blanco. Corbett reflexiona sobre sus detalles y copia los símbolos marginales. Un frío enfermizo lo abruma. Toda la familia comienza a reaccionar de forma extraña. Mike el perro, lo ve como si fuera un enemigo. La esposa y los hijos están alarmados por una marca roja como una huella digital en la frente del señor Corbett, pero este no puede verla en el espejo. Todas las noches, el señor Corbett sigue traduciendo el libro, aparentemente el registro de una sociedad secreta involucrada en prácticas oscuras y viles. Pero en el hedor a corrupción que emana de las páginas amarillentas reconoce el olor del conocimiento secreto. Una noche, Corbett nota un nuevo párrafo, escrito con tinta moderna, pero con la misma caligrafía del siglo XVII: «Continúa, tú, los estudios interminables». Corbett intenta rezar. En ese momento entra la señora Corbett, temblando. ¿No escuchó su marido esa risa inhumana, demoníaca? El libro tiene instrucciones con tinta fresca todos los días, generalmente sobre inversiones descabelladas. Para el envidioso asombro de los colegas de Corbett, las inversiones dan sus frutos. Pero el libro también ordena a Corbett que cometa ciertas blasfemias. Una noche, el libro revela una orden directa: Canem Occide [«mata al perro»]. No hay problema, Corbett está resentido por la nueva aversión del animal hacia él. Pero eventualmente el libro continúa emitiendo órdenes cada vez más atroces, como Infantem Occide [«mata a la niña»]. El libro se refiere a Jeannie, su hija favorita. Una atrocidad, sin dudas, pero si está escrito en el libro... En varias de sus historias H.P. Lovecraft proporciona una bibliografía de libros prohibidos llenos de contenido arcano y aterrador. En la parte superior de la lista se encuentra el temido Necronomicón, pero también el De Vermis Mysteriis de Ludvig Prinn, el Cultes des Goules del Comte d'Erlette y el Unaussprechlichen Kulten de von Junzt, entre otros. Estos son libros raros, libros que han obtenido un número reducido pero devoto de lectores a lo largo de los siglos. Esta lista, sin embargo, no menciona el manuscrito de Margaret Irwin, que nada tiene que envidiarle a los libros apócrifos de los Mitos de Cthulhu. El libro establece su historia en un hogar de clase media alta, en medio de entornos familiares y rutinas domésticas. El señor Corbett, el patriarca de la casa, es un ávido lector, pero últimamente su actitud hacia sus libros favoritos se ha vuelto crítica y hastiada. Se obsesiona con el libro anónimo, que se vuelve más fácil de leer a medida que pasa más tiempo con él, mientras se desintegran sus lazos familiares. En este sentido, El libro de Margaret Irwin es notable en el uso de pequeños detalles para crear presagios siniestros. Su documentación sutil y llena de suspenso le añade una nueva dimensión al convincente e inquietante colapso psicológico del protagonista. Margaret Irwin, escribiendo casi al mismo tiempo que Lovecraft garabateaba notas sobre el Necronomicón, presenta el que debería ser el más prohibido de los libros apócrifos: un volumen que no solo se abre camino en la mente de sus lectores, sino que corrompe otros libros. En efecto, los libros favoritos del señor Corbett [Austen, Dickens, Brontë, Stevenson] parecen estar siendo afectados por la lectura de este manuscrito. Quizás realmente haya cosas terribles debajo de la superficie de cualquier libro, quizás todos están embrujados, llenos de «secreciones mórbidas». El libro de Margaret Irwin logra ese estado de ánimo que Lovecraft describía como «cierta atmósfera de falta de aliento y temor inexplicable a las fuerzas externas desconocidas». El protagonista no solo se da cuenta de lo inquietante, a pesar de su escepticismo, sino que llega a ver su mundo ordinario como una ilusión. Su misma racionalidad se quiebra, apoyando su descenso a la locura. El manuscrito utiliza la propensión de todas las personas a la arrogancia para apoderarse de ellas. El señor Corbett no es un estudioso del ocultismo. Es abogado, un simple asesor financiero. Pero lo que le sucede, aclara la historia, puede pasarle a cualquiera. Una y otra vez, Margaret Irwin rechaza la idea de que haya algo especialmente vulnerable en Corbett [o que el lector pueda imaginarse a sí mismo especialmente invulnerable]. Todo lo que hace el protagonista es completamente humano. Por otro lado, El libro describe rituales viles que la mayoría de los autores exotizarían; Lovecraft probablemente lo habría atribuido al culto perverso de mestizos y orientales. En cambio, Margaret Irwin nos dice que nadie es inmune. Y, sin embargo, Corbett finalmente se resiste y se sacrifica por un sentimiento que esa lectura blasfema no ha logrado eliminar por completo. Esto tampoco es particularmente especial, no se limita a algún subconjunto de la humanidad. Todo el mundo es vulnerable, pero todos tienen la opción de elegir. El libro solo nos brinda la mirada del señor Corbett, pero la historia es consciente de las perspectivas de otras personas sobre lo que le está sucediendo, a veces directamente, a veces a través de reacciones. Son pocos los autores que, como Margaret Irwin, son capaces de comprender cómo las personas pueden ser persuadidas para adoptar comportamientos terribles y, al mismo tiempo, seguir creyendo que son buenas personas. Cada paso del descenso del señor Corbett suena verdadero y, por lo tanto, el horror suena verdadero. Aunque carece de un nombre exótico como el Necronomicón, el libro de Margaret Irwin tiene un efecto tan devastador en el lector como los infames grimorios del multiverso lovecraftiano. El veneno del manuscrito también es exquisitamente insidioso: infecta el contenido de los libros vecinos con su propio cinismo. Incluso los libros ilustrados de los niños se ven afectados. Corbett inicialmente se desanima por la forma en que el libro deforma su sensibilidad, pero las alegrías del cinismo crecen en él. El libro aprovecha ese punto débil. Convence a Corbett de que es extraordinario, subestimado, pero eso cambiará. El libro lo conducirá a su legítima eminencia, si Corbett se deshace de sus tontas inhibiciones, incluidos su esposa e hijos. Los libros son preciosos, o peligrosos, porque transmiten ideas, conocimientos, que luego se combinan con las propias ideas y conocimientos del lector para volverse más valiosos [o peligrosos]. En el caso del señor Corbett, la recombinación es tan peligrosa que su única salida es quemar el libro en un último paroxismo. Una victoria trágica para la Luz, hay que decirlo, pero victoria al fin. Al final, Corbett no puede matar a su propio hija. Arroja el tomo maldito a la chimenea. Como resultado, su cuerpo se descubre más tarde. Se supone que se suicidó, pero las marcas de dedos descubiertas alrededor de su cuello sugieren una explicación sobrenatural de su muerte y todos los eventos anteriores: la mano cortada del sueño de su hija lo ha matado por desobediencia. Lo horrible de esta historia no es tanto lo sobrenatural en sí mismo como la disposición del ser humano [de algunos, al menos] a obedecer órdenes aberrantes. La segunda mitad tiene ciertas similitudes con La araña (Die spinne) de H.H. Ewers, sobre todo en cómo este vacío parece susurrar oscuras diabólicas al protagonista, exigiendo una obediencia absoluta. Desde un punto de vista político, es interesante que Corbett invierta en el comercio de marfil africano, lo que probablemente signifique que invirtió en el Congo, donde los belgas fueron responsables de abusos genocidas a principios de siglo. Esas atrocidades incluyeron cortar las manos a los esclavos rebeldes. En este contexto, es sugerente que una mano cortada asesine a Corbett, quizás un guiño al lector de 1930 bien informado sobre lo que estaba sucediendo en África, aunque es posible que esto, una vez más, sea un divague de El Espejo Gótico y el cuento de Margaret Irwin no admita tal interpretación.
