Volume, measuring approximately 6" x 9", is bound in gray cloth, with stamped gilt lettering to spine. Book and dust jacket are new. Jacket is preserved in mylar cover. viii/199 pages. "Throughout his literary work Goethe portrays characters who defy and reject 18th and 19th century ideals of aristocratic and civil families, notions of heritage, assumptions about biological connections, expectations about heterosexuality, and legal mandates concerning marriage. The questions Goethe's plays and novels pose are often modern and challenging: Do social conventions, family expectations, and legal mandates matter? Can two men or two women pair together and be parents? How many partners or parents should there be? Two? One? A group? Can parents love children not biologically related to them? Do biological parents always love their children? What is the nature of adoptive parents, children, and families? Ultimately, what is the fundamental essence of love and family? Gustafson demonstrates that Goethe's conception of the elective affinities is certainly not limited to heterosexual spouses or occasionally to men desiring men. A close analysis of Goethe's explication of affinities throughout his literary production reveals his rejection of loveless relationships (for example, arranged marriages) and his acceptance and promotion of all relationships formed through spontaneous affinities and love (including heterosexual, same-sex, nonexclusive, group, parental, and adoptive).". …

Those familiar with the seedlings of both say that the leaves are linear in the Lewisia but broader in Claytonia is not very conclusive. The rootstock has also been referred to as a corm; Sampson Clay (1937) deftly avoided controversy by calling it a ''little round earth nut," a common reference for geophytic food plants in the Old World. Tubers of L. triphylla were eaten by the native peoples of the American West. Lewisia triphylla near Cisco, California. The basal leaves of Lewisia triphylla become dormant by flowering time, when the plant devotes its strength to reproduction. The whorl of stem leaves beneath the flower gives them the appearance of mingling with green leafy ribbons. The white to palest pink flowers are usually few, but on a flourishing plant a stem may bear as many as a dozen, with three or more stems per plant, all rising 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) above the ground. These flowers present quite a charming picture, as Marcel LePiniec once described them, in patches bordering tiny snowmelt rivulets in a mossy alpine meadow, their effect." ; FINE/FINE.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Goethe's play Stella (1776) caused so much turmoil in Germany that it was retracted from the stage. In England, it was portrayed as evidence of lesser German values because of its portrayal of a ménage à trois. This new translation provides an introduction exploring the reception of the play in Germany and England, scholarly interpretations of the play, and the portions that were left out in earlier translations. The introduction also outlines the major questions the play highlights: Why do the two women, Stella and Cecilia, ultimately accept the ménage à trois Can they trust Fernando, who flirts with every woman he meets Do women and men conceive of marriage and loving commitments differently Do the women agree to the ménage à trois because it is the only way they can be together as friends or as lovers In addition, this translation has an appendix that outlines all of the changes (over 100) that Goethe made in 1806 in order to get the play back on stage. A useful resource for students, teachers, and scholars alike, this translation sheds new light on Goethe's classic play.…
