Sent unwillingly to a New Caledonian nursing home in 1967, Jeanne remembers and faces her Communist and feminist past (did her actions make a difference?)--along with solitude and old age.Jeanne falls in love with a Spanish man, but also falls deeply in support of the Red Flag. She refuses to be a spectator to the devastating events in the world of the 1930s and 40s, arrives in New Caledonia, where she cofounds the Communist Party and fights for all men, women and children exploited by Colonial powers. She aims to empower the oppressed and have them rise against their oppressors--but not without consequences for her: a bomb attack, constant scrutiny from government agencies and solitude at the end of her life. Inspired by the life of Jeanne Tunica Y Casas (1894 - 1972) The novel incorporates family accounts, documents and translations of her key tracts and articles. The Jeannes of this world, past and present, should never be forgotten.

William Chambers (May 26, 1865 - December 16, 1933) was an American artist and writer. According to some estimates, Chambers was one of the most successful literary careers of his period, his later novels selling well and a handful achieving best-seller status. Many of his works were also serialized in magazines. About "The Red Republic," the New York Press wrote: "With all its rush and excitement there is a solid basis of painstaking and thoughtfulness in 'The Red Republic.' Mr. Chambers is wholly free from self-consciousness; indeed his gifts seem to be little short of genius. Wonderfully vivid and graphic." The New York Times wrote: "Mr. Chambers shows great familiarity with the many dreadful days of 1871m and Mr. Thiers's policy is critically examined. 'The Red Republic' abounds with action."

Discover the story of Adélaïde Labille-Guiard—a long-ignored artist and feminist of eighteenth-century France—in this imaginative and illuminating biography from an award-winning writer. Born in Paris in 1749, Adélaïde Labille-Guiard rose from shopkeeper’s daughter to an official portraitist of the royal court—only to have her achievements reduced to ash by the French Revolution. While she defied societal barriers to become a member of the exclusive Académie Royale and a mentor for other ambitious women painters, she left behind few writings, and her legacy was long overshadowed by celebrated portraitist and memoirist Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun. But Adélaïde Labille-Guiard’s story lives on. In this engaging biography, Bridget Quinn applies her insightful interpretation of art history to Labille-Guiard’s life. She offers a fascinating new perspective on the artist’s feminism, her sexuality, and her vision of the world. Quinn expertly blends close analyses of paintings with broader context about the era and inserts delicately fictionalized interpersonal scenes that fill the gaps in the historical record. This is a compelling and inspiring look at an artist too long overlooked. INSPIRING HISTORICAL NONFICTION: Despite numerous setbacks, Labille-Guiard built a legacy as an accomplished royal portraitist and a mentor to other young women artists of her era. This tale of solidarity, self-belief, and true passion for painting is sure to inspire contemporary creatives and women today. CREATIVE AND COMPELLING ART HISTORY BOOK: Bridget Quinn is an award-winning author and art historian who has spent years researching Adélaïde Labille-Guiard’s work and life. She vividly evokes both and weaves a compelling narrative at the intersection of art, gender, and politics. GORGEOUS ART REPRODUCTIONS THROUGHOUT: This biography features full-color images of artwork by Adélaïde Labille-Guiard, her rumored rival Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun, and other artists of the era, including portraits of key players in the narrative. These images, interspersed throughout the book, offer valuable visual references to illuminate the engaging text even further. AN ARTFUL GIFT BOOK: Uniquely crafted and thoroughly researched, this volume makes an outstanding gift for art history enthusiasts and readers who love exploring untold stories in women's history. Perfect for: Readers of memoirs and biographies History buffs and fans of historical fiction and nonfiction Artists, art lovers, museumgoers, and art history students Feminists and readers seeking feminist books Francophiles and those interested in the French Revolution Fans of Portrait of a Lady on Fire and other historical dramas

DOMESTIC ANIMALS & PETS. Marta Williams takes communicating with the animals in our lives a few steps further by offering concrete suggestions for specific animal issues. Starting with a basic overview of what it means to communicate intuitively with animals, Marta goes on to offer case studies of how such communication can work. Marta guides readers step by step to a new understanding of how and when animals communicate, and teaches simple ways to begin interpreting and testing the signals animals give to humans. The particular focus of this book is solving common animal behaviour issues. Perhaps a dog constantly barks or lunges, or a cat goes missing or won't eat. Or, a horse shies and won't respond to training. All of these issues and more are dealt with through examples, exercises, and case studies.

How do filmmakers guide viewers through the frame using the movement of bodies on screen? What do they seek to communicate with their cinematic choreography, and how were those choices shaped by industrial conditions? This book is about the powerful relationship between human movement and cinema. It demonstrates how filmmakers have used moving bodies and dance as key storytelling elements and how media industries' changing investment in this aspect of film style impacts filmmakers' choices in portraying movement on screen.

Corbin's "red itinerary" began when she joined the Young Communist League in Edmonton. She later held party posts across the country through her involvement with The Worker in Toronto, a French communist paper in Montreal, the Workers' Cooperative in Timmins, and a lumbermen's strike in Abitibi - where she was jailed for taking part in a protest. She died of tuberculosis in London, Ontario, in 1944.
