505 | 8 | |a The novelist R. F. Delderfield's trilogy of English life in the second half of the nineteenth century portrays the social history of Adam Swann and his family, energetic people of differing talents and tempers involved in a kaleidoscopic range of social engagements. Born into a military family but shaken by his army experience in India, Adam returns to civilian life in England and creates an innovative goods-hauling service across the country. Adam's ten children are also innovators who provide the intellectual activity expressed by the phrase «The Ethos of Britain.» In the novels a whole country is energized by a handful of individuals who recognize and set out to solve a wide range of social problems - such as, teenage girls being abducted into continental brothels, miners killed or maimed by underground hazards, factory hands enduring long hours tending unsafe machinery, and elderly couples evicted from their homes, separated, and starved. As Adam's observant wife Henrietta expresses it, wherever there's a problem «youʼre sure to find a Swann or two.» The Swann trilogy dramatizes a half-century of British dominance in Europe prior to the First World War as represented by the members of a single English family | |

Lams 1st, New ed New York Peter Lang Inc., International Academic Publishers 2012 1 Online-Ressource (134 Seiten) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Online resource; title from title screen (viewed June 10, 2019) The novelist R. F. Delderfield's trilogy of English life in the second half of the nineteenth century portrays the social history of Adam Swann and his family, energetic people of differing talents and tempers involved in a kaleidoscopic range of social engagements. Born into a military family but shaken by his army experience in India, Adam returns to civilian life in England and creates an innovative goods-hauling service across the country. Adam's ten children are also innovators who provide the intellectual activity expressed by the phrase «The Ethos of Britain.» In the novels a whole country is energized by a handful of individuals who recognize and set out to solve a wide range of social problems - such as, teenage girls being abducted into continental brothels, miners killed or maimed by underground hazards, factory hands enduring long hours tending unsafe machinery, and elderly couples evicted from their homes, separated, and starved. As Adam's observant wife Henrietta expresses it, wherever there's a problem «youʼre sure to find a Swann or two.» The Swann trilogy dramatizes a half-century of British dominance in Europe prior to the First World War as represented by the members of a single English family Delderfield, Ronald F. 1912-1972 (DE-588)118878948 gnd rswk-swf Diderot, Denis 1713-1784 (DE-588)118525263 gnd rswk-swf Sartre, Jean-Paul 1905-1980 (DE-588)11860564X gnd rswk-swf Pascal, Blaise 1623-1662 (DE-588)118591843 gnd rswk-swf Pannenberg, Wolfhart 1928-2014 (DE-588)118591541 gnd rswk-swf Voltaire 1694-1778 (DE-588)118627813 gnd rswk-swf Rousseau, Jean-Jacques 1712-1778 (DE-588)118603426 gnd rswk-swf Montaigne, Michel Eyquem de 1533-1592 (DE-588)118583573 gnd rswk-swf Wo hu cang long (DE-588)4624303-3 gnd rswk-swf Se, jie (DE-588)7601411-3 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1300-2012 gnd rswk-swf Globalisierung Motiv (DE-588)4725236-4 gnd rswk-swf Person (DE-588)4134819-9 gnd rswk-swf Begriff (DE-588)4005248-5 gnd rswk-swf Chinesen Motiv (DE-588)4628796-6 gnd rswk-swf Juden (DE-588)4028808-0 gnd rswk-swf Nationalbewusstsein Motiv (DE-588)4197358-6 gnd rswk-swf Trinitätslehre (DE-588)4117249-8 gnd rswk-swf Willensfreiheit (DE-588)4079320-5 gnd rswk-swf Polen (DE-588)4046496-9 gnd rswk-swf Delderfield, Ronald F. 1912-1972 (DE-588)118878948 p DE-604 Diderot, Denis 1713-1784 (DE-588)118525263 p Montaigne, Michel Eyquem de 1533-1592 (DE-588)118583573 p Pascal, Blaise 1623-1662 (DE-588)118591843 p Rousseau, Jean-Jacques 1712-1778 (DE-588)118603426 p Sartre, Jean-Paul 1905-1980 (DE-588)11860564X p Voltaire 1694-1778 (DE-588)118627813 p Willensfreiheit (DE-588)4079320-5 s Chinesen Motiv (DE-588)4628796-6 s Globalisierung Motiv (DE-588)4725236-4 s Nationalbewusstsein Motiv (DE-588)4197358-6 s Se, jie (DE-588)7601411-3 u Wo hu cang long (DE-588)4624303-3 u Pannenberg, Wolfhart 1928-2014 (DE-588)118591541 p Begriff (DE-588)4005248-5 s Person (DE-588)4134819-9 s Trinitätslehre (DE-588)4117249-8 s Polen (DE-588)4046496-9 g Juden (DE-588)4028808-0 s Geschichte 1300-2012 z Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 9781433118739 https://www.peterlang.com/view/product/29813?format=EPDF Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
