Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. First Edition. (no dust jacket) [a good sound copy, slight bumping to upper corners, spine cloth slightly faded, vintage bookseller rubber-stamp on front pastedown (Bertrand Smith Acres of Books, Long Beach, Calif.)]. Mid-career novel by this longtime editor at The Nation, the wife of poet/critic Mark Van Doren and the mother of notorious game-show cheater Charles Van Doren. It's a depiction of the subjective worldview of a young girl from ages 6 to 14, which a contemporary reviewer thought "deceptively simple [but with] a good deal more strength than the reader realizes at first." Being as how the author was born in 1896 and the novel's narrative spans the years from 1897 to 1910, it seems a pretty safe bet that she was retroactively channeling her own childhood, more or less. This was the fourth of Mrs. Van Doren's five published novels (her NYT obituary gets the total wrong); she also wrote several non-fiction books, based on her family life, later on.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Lost Art' is an evocative exploration of the intimate lives and intellectual prowess of seven remarkable women through the medium of their personal correspondence. Dorothy van Doren provides insightful biographical sketches and carefully selected letters that reveal the inner worlds of figures such as Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, Abigail Adams, Mary Wollstonecraft, and Jane Carlyle. By focusing on the 'lost art' of letter writing, the work captures a time when the written word was the primary vehicle for deep emotional expression, social commentary, and intellectual exchange.Throughout the volume, Van Doren illustrates how these women navigated the social constraints of their respective eras-ranging from the 18th to the 19th centuries-using their pens to assert their identities and influence. The book serves as both a literary collection and a historical study of women's voices, highlighting their wit, resilience, and complex relationships. Readers are invited to rediscover the nuances of epistolary communication and the enduring power of these private narratives. 'The Lost Art' remains a significant contribution to the study of women's literature and social history, offering a window into the hearts and minds of some of history's most compelling female figures.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Lost Art' is a compelling anthology that brings together the personal correspondence of seven influential women, offering a window into their private thoughts, social observations, and intellectual pursuits. Edited by Dorothy Van Doren, this collection celebrates the refined and now often forgotten skill of letter-writing as a primary form of human expression and connection. The volume provides an intimate look at the lives of women whose voices resonate across history, capturing their wit, struggles, and triumphs through their own written words.Spanning various periods, these letters serve as both historical documents and literary achievements. They reveal the domestic and public pressures of their times, illustrating how these women navigated their worlds through the power of the pen. From insightful critiques of contemporary society to deeply personal reflections on family and independence, the selections in 'The Lost Art' showcase the diversity of the female experience. This work is an essential resource for readers interested in women's history, the evolution of the epistolary form, and the enduring legacy of some of history's most articulate figures. By preserving these voices, the anthology highlights the resilience and brilliance inherent in the art of the letter.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
