PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST • Drawing on a wealth of research, this "fascinating" book (The New York Times Book Review) charts the invention of our current Yuletide traditions, from St. Nicholas to the Christmas tree and, perhaps most radically, the practice of giving gifts to children. Anyone who laments the excesses of Christmas might consider the Puritans of colonial Massachusetts: they simply outlawed the holiday. The Puritans had their reasons, since Christmas was once an occasion for drunkenness and riot, when poor "wassailers extorted food and drink from the well-to-do. In this intriguing and innovative work of social history, Stephen Nissenbaum rediscovers Christmas's carnival origins and shows how it was transformed, during the nineteenth century, into a festival of domesticity and consumerism. Bursting with detail, filled with subversive readings of such seasonal classics as "A Visit from St. Nicholas” and A Christmas Carol, The Battle for Christmas captures the glorious strangeness of the past even as it helps us better understand our present.

Best known for her culinary and domestic guides and the award-winning short story “Mrs. Washington Potts,” Eliza Leslie deserves a much more prominent place in contemporary literary discussions of the nineteenth century. Her writing, known for its overtly moralistic and didactic tones—though often presented with wit and humor—also provides contemporary readers with a nuanced perspective for understanding the diversity among American women in Leslie’s time. Leslie’s writing serves as a commentary on gender ideals and consumerism; presents complicated constructions of racial, national, and class-based identities; and critiques literary genres such as the Gothic romance and the love letter. These criticisms are exposed through the juxtaposition of her fiction and nonfiction instructive texts, which range from lessons on literary conduct to needlework; from recipes for American and French culinary dishes to travel sketches; from songs to educational games. Demonstrating the complexity of choices available to women at the time, this volume enables readers to see how Leslie’s rhetoric and audience awareness facilitated her ability to appeal to a broad swath of the nineteenth-century reading public.

There were no reviews of Mansfield Park when it first appeared in 1814. Austen's reputation grew in the Victorian period, but it was only in the twentieth century that formal and sustained criticism began of this work, which addresses the controversies of its time more than Austen's earlier novels did. Lionel Trilling praised Mansfield Park for exploring the difficult moral life of modernity; Edward Said brought postcolonial theory to the study of the novel; and twenty-first-century critics scrutinize these and other approaches to build on and go beyond them. This volume is the third in the MLA Approaches series to deal with Austen's work (Pride and Prejudice and Emma were the subject of the first and second volumes on Austen, respectively). It provides information about editions, film adaptations, and digital resources, and then nineteen essays discuss various aspects of Mansfield Park, including the slave trade, the theme of reading, elements of tragedy, gift theory, landscape design, moral improvement in the spirit of Samuel Johnson and of the Reformation, sibling relations, card playing, and interpretations of Fanny Price, the heroine, not as passive but as having some control.

The O.C., A Critical Understanding, by Lori Bindig and Andrea M. Bergstrom, is a feminist cultural studies analysis of FOX's hit teen television drama The O.C. (2003-2007). Episodes of The O.C. are analyzed as a set of media texts that blur the boundaries between hegemonic and counter-hegemonic content. This analysis utilizes ancillary media such as director commentary in conjunction with content in order to understand how ideological content, in regards to gender, race, class, sexuality, and consumerism, is presented throughout the show. The O.C. is also examined in terms of audience analysis, auteur theory, aesthetics, and reality television spin-offs. Bindig and Bergstrom place The O.C. in a larger social context and explore the potential ramifications of popular media texts, as well as the series' cultural legacy which continues to resonate in media and culture.

This occasion has its starting points in the Western Christian gala day respecting a couple of early Christian saints named Holy Person Valentine. The practice of cultured love in the High Medieval times, which included great motions and gifts, for example, love letters and verse, promoted the relationship of Valentine's Day with heartfelt love. Today, Valentine's Day is praised all around the world, with couples communicating their adoration through cards, gifts, and unique dates. In any case, the historical backdrop of the occasion isn't restricted to simply heartfelt love. The day was associated with the pagan festival Lupercalia, which celebrated spring and fertility in the late Roman Empire. The Roman Empire eventually outlawed Lupercalia, which involved giving gifts to women and hitting them with goat hides to increase fertility. Instead, the Christian holiday Saint Valentine was celebrated. Valentine's Day is praised in numerous nations all over the planet and is adjusted to fit the social and cultural standards of each spot. In the US and numerous Western nations, the occasion is principally connected with heartfelt love, while in a few Asian nations, for example, South Korea and Japan, it is a chance to communicate love and warmth for better halves as well as for loved ones. In a few Latin American nations, Valentine's Day is praised with celebrations and marches that incorporate music, moving, and food, underlining local area and love for all. Valentine's Day is known as "Friend's Day" in Finland and Estonia, so it's no surprise that the day is spent honoring and dressing up close friends. Valentine's Day is a critical business occasion, with the offer of roses, chocolates, and different gifts arriving at its top in the weeks paving the way to February fourteenth. Despite the distinctions in how it is praised, the occasion remains a significant chance for individuals to meet up and show their affection and appreciation for the people around them. Whether it is through gift-giving, heartfelt suppers, love letters, or couples exercises, Valentine's Day is a period for individuals to communicate their adoration and friendship for the people who are significant in their lives. The occasion has taken on various implications and meanings in various regions of the planet, exhibiting the different manners by which individuals express love and warmth for each other.
