This study analyses how the imaginary Finnish Maid (Suomi-neito) was used to construct the Finnish nation at the turn of the 20th century. It focuses on gender, femininity and masculinity, sexuality and body as well as on the images of virginity, bridehood and sexual violence. The study argues that Finnish male intellectuals saw the Finnish nation as their female beloved, a potential bride, but that they did not get her and the Finnish Maid remained an eternal virgin. In addition, the Finnish Maid was seen as being raped by the Russians. The materials analysed in this study consist of caricatures, poems and national monuments.

The Way of a Man with a Maid by an anonymous author is about a romantic drama between a young man who has been jilted by a beautiful young maid named Alice. Excerpt: "I, the man, will not take up the time of my readers by detailing the circumstances under which Alice, the maid, roused in me the desire for vengeance which resulted in the way I adopted and which I am about to relate. Suffice it then to say that Alice cruelly and unjustifiably jilted me! In my bitterness of spirit, I swore that if I ever had an opportunity of getting hold of her, I would make her voluptuous person recompense me for my disappointment and that I would snatch from her by force the bridegroom's privileges that I so ardently coveted."

Throughout the twentieth century and continuing today, personifications of Russia as a bride occur in a wide range of Russian texts and visual representations, from literature and political and philosophical treatises to cartoons and tattoos. Invariably, this metaphor functions in the context of a political gender allegory, which represents the relationships between Russia, the intelligentsia, and the Russian state, as a competition of two male suitors for the former’s love. In Unattainable Bride Russia, Ellen Rutten focuses on the metaphorical role the intelligentsia plays as Russia’s rejected or ineffectual suitor. Rutten finds that this metaphor, which she covers from its prehistory in folklore to present-day pop culture references to Vladimir Putin, is still powerful, but has generated scarce scholarly consideration. Unattainable Bride Russia locates the cultural thread and places the political metaphor in a broad contemporary and social context, thus paying it the attention to which it is entitled as one of Russia’s modern cultural myths.

The American master's first novel since Winter's Bone tells of a deadly dance hall fire and its impact over several generations. Alma DeGeer Dunahew, the mother of three young boys, works as the maid for a prominent citizen and his family in West Table, Missouri. Her husband is mostly absent, and, in 1929, her scandalous, beloved younger sister is one of the 42 killed in an explosion at the local dance hall. Who is to blame? Mobsters from St. Louis? The embittered local gypsies? The preacher who railed against the loose morals of the waltzing couples? Or could it have been a colossal accident? Alma thinks she knows the answer-and that its roots lie in a dangerous love affair. Her dogged pursuit of justice makes her an outcast and causes a long-standing rift with her own son. By telling her story to her grandson, she finally gains some solace-and peace for her sister. He is advised to "Tell it. Go on and tell it"-tell the story of his family's struggles, suspicions, secrets, and triumphs.

♥ An English marquess disguised as a commoner ♥ A spunky Scottish lass ♥ A glamorous makeover ♥ A close-knit, meddling family ♥ Steamy romance! Another enchanting romance featuring New York Times bestselling author Lauren Royal’s “outrageously funny, loyal, compassionate, and unconventional” Chase family! As a marquess and the eldest of four orphaned siblings, Jason Chase is used to taking responsibility for everyone around him—whether they appreciate it or not. So when a shocking crime is committed on his estate, he knows it’s up to him to hunt down the perpetrators. Heavy on guilt and light on luggage, he takes to the road… And runs smack dab into a hapless Scottish lad. Who turns out to be a lovely Scottish lass. Though it’s her first time in England, Caithren Leslie can take care of herself, thank you very much. But when Jason accidentally knocks her down and decides that makes her his responsibility, he won’t take no for an answer. And though he’s a pigheaded (and, very well, rather handsome) Englishman who finds her Scots speech unintelligible, beneath their constant bickering runs a current of something else… Through long days on the road and even longer nights, what begins as getting on each other’s nerves becomes stripping down one another’s defenses and discovering what lies beneath, until all is laid bare. Including the one secret that could destroy their fledgling love… PLEASE NOTE: This book was formerly titled “Emerald.” BOOK DETAILS A complete, standalone story—no cliffhangers!

In the climactic finale of the USA Today–bestselling author’s royal romance series, a fairytale wedding isn’t the end of the story—it’s the beginning. It seemed like every girl’s dream: fall in love with a prince and be whisked off for your very own glamorous happy-ever-after. But there’s more to this royal fairy tale for Allegra Jackson and Prince Alessandro Santina. Allegra’s headline-grabbing family hardly prepared her for a life of public duty, and sinfully delicious Prince Alessandro has always seemed virtually allergic to the idea of settling down in Santa Maria. Out of all the flamboyant, beautiful women his name’s been linked with, the heir to the throne picked ordinary Allegra with the family from hell. Now everyone is watching to see if the tabloid’s couple of the year is really playing for keeps.
