‎1939 Trip Diary of a Scottish Immigrant to America Returning Home Via the Panama Canal for the First Time in 26 Years Experiencing Europe in the Months Just before the Second World War Would Change Everything‎

‎Glasgow Scotland. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1939. Hardcover. On offer is the diary of a Scottish immigrant to the United States following her first visit home since she left for America 26 years earlier. This diary kept by Mary Hodge Winchester 1892-1983 details her first class voyage accompanied by her 17-year-old daughter Marjorie back to Scotland to visit family left behind and discover the United Kingdom through the lens of a mature well-traveled adult. It also details her four months based in Scotland and travelling to nearby locations and a rocky journey back to America and home to Seattle. Mary was born in Lochwinnoch Scotland to parents Duddingston Hodge and Margaret Park. As a young adult in 1915 after a stop in Sydney Australia Mary moved to the USA. In January of 1916 she married fellow Scottish immigrant John Duncan Winchester 1883-1980 in Butte Montana. John was born to David Winchester and Jessie McLaren Lauder. He had arrived in New York in 1914 and initially worked as a miner. After the birth of their first child the Winchesters moved to Seattle Washington. John worked as a machinist and a driver eventually opening his own company in the “transfer and hauling” industry. Together Mary and John had two daughters Isabella Hooper 1916-1997 and Marjorie Lander 1922-2009. Ship records show that Mary and Marjorie boarded the Knusten Line’s M. S. Sophie Bakke mastered by B. Barene in Tacoma Washington on March 25 1939. The ship had originally departed from Vancouver Canada and it docked in Glasgow Scotland on May 28 1939. Mary documents their travels in a “My Trip” diary. The first page titled Itinerary is where Mary writes a one-page overview of their two-month journey to Glasgow: “Leave Seattle 2.30 P M March 26th day arrive at Lintone 2.30th arrive Portland 30-1st Arrive St Johns 2nd Leave in afternoon 2nd Oakland 3rd San Francisco — 4th May 4th in San Pedro Los Angeles 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 6 - 14 at Sea 14th June Docked at Panama at 11.45 P M 14th 8.30 AM - 15th then the Canal to the Caribbean Sea Past Broads Island off the Mexican Coast & on into the Atlantic Ocean Passing Mona Island & on to Glasgow going up the Firth of Clyde seeing many interesting Places & Land Marks on the way. Glasgow Sunday X May”Next Mary details her daily adventures both on the ship and at ports. She also references the activities of her daughter and the other passengers. She makes a few passing comments that hint at some challenges in her personal life back home such as her Mother’s Day entry: “I feel very blue the two mothers on board have been opening surprise packages & cards & I do feel let down I will feel better soon & after all I might get a letter at Panama & we had a lovely day laughing but I was still feeling a bit sick from my sunburn but Marge had a good time we had all the officers who were off duty at the party & it was quite an event for them as they are rarely treated” May 14 1939. Most of Mary’s entries are newsy and upbeat. She writes of various stops on the journey such as visits to San Francisco’s Chinatown the World’s Fair on Treasure Island Alcatraz Panama City the Panama Canal and Gatun Lake and more. Mary’s writing seamlessly incorporates historical observations descriptions of ship life and a tourist’s fascination. Some excerpts: “Marge is writing to John…here we are in Oakland…quite a sight…Alcatraz was also quite a sight and there are quite a lot of flowers on the Island and the Electric train is quite near the dock so we are going to town and the fair…we went into Oakland…went to the fair which was very interesting but a bit disappointing…came back in time for dinner bringing Myrtle and JD Kennedy with us…” April 29-30 1939. Note: the Golden Gate International Exposition was a major World's Fair on Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay. “A beautifull & warm morning the girls are all in sun suits on the Sun deck the pool is filled so swimming this afternoon Margie & Celene went swimming I took only one dip Margie stayed about an hour & had a grand time in the evening I played bridge with Miss Huntington & Mr Beard…” May 7 1939. “.We are now going through the first lock called Pedro Miguel it is all so very interesting we take a negro crew for the trip through the locks little cars pull us by cable all the way through there are guards everywhere .Marjorie just says I am sorry Betty is missing all this it cost 6000 dollars to send each ship through the locks. Our pilot for the Canal is Leut Commander Hans M. Schloming USN Reserves…” undated but around May 16 1939“.We are traveling now right through where they cut the Panama canal right throu the mountain. I would have taken pictures but they are not allowed we are traveling through gold Hill and contractors Hill there is a plaque on the side hill in memory of Major Gaillard engineer for the famous cut…we have come to the second locks…there are 4 ships ahead of us so the girls got the 1st Mate to put down the Jacobs ladder and 3 of them went swimming in the bay - or Gatun Lake rather…” undated but context puts the entry at around May 17 1939. Upon arrival in Scotland Mary and Marjorie spend time with members of both the Hodge family and the Winchester family. She names many family members and friends and also writes about the United Kingdom like a curious tourist. She is staying with her older brother Duddingston Hodge and his wife Euphemia. She spends her time back home exploring her home country and roots learning more about her family members connecting with friends and taking some exciting trips to nearby locations where her passion for history is on full display. Some excerpts give the flavour of her overseas entries: “Arrived in Glasgow last night about 7 P. M…Dudd Pheimie Isa and Margt met us we had a long slow sail up the Clyde & it was very interesting. We saw so many war ships in construction & saw the Queen Elizabeth just finished…” May 29 1939. Note: The family members who met them are likely her older brother Duddington Hodge his wife Euphemia Ann Kennedy and Isabella and Margaret two of their five children. “.Went on for a long walk to see where Mrs. McLean a relation of her mother-in-law lived. I will try to go see her” June 11 1939. Mary and Marjorie did trips outside of Scotland including visits to London and Edinburgh: “.We went to Madam Tausards it is all very wonderfull then on to St Pauls to see the whispering gallery as the guide talked we could hear him on the wall on the other side then…up to the stone gallery some 375 steps 340 feet high…we wrote our names on the second landing…” June 23 1939. On a visit to Edinburgh Castle Mary wrote many pages about what she learned. She was absolutely fascinated by the history. A brief excerpt: “.We also saw Mary Queen of Scots chair it is 400 years old andthe only one in existence and her portrait at the age of 45 and is the original.we saw right beside the Castle from Mary’s window a row of houses that was bombed during the last war 1917 they think it was ment for the Castle and it just missed it…”. Most of Mary and Marjorie’s time is spent is Scotland. “It was nice & warm but we didn’t find Mothers grave. D hadn’t gone since we left Scotland 26 years ago I felt awful about it I did think he was different” July 17 1939 Glasgow“.So miserable Phemie rubbed me and put plaster on still coughing stayed in bed all day Kate called” July 19 1939. The women depart Glasgow on August 19: “Had my hair done and went over town then packed and got ready to leave we were at the dock by 9: 30. Dudd Jessie Phemie and Donald came on board we sailed about 2AM” Aug 18 1939. The voyage home is documented less thoroughly as Mary was extremely seasick for much of it but she still writes regularly. “Feeling a little better but have to stay in bed had a visit from Mrs. McDonald Mrs. Davis Mrs. Humes feeling very sick the Dr. Says I am sea sick being so weak it's horrible and very painful” Aug 22 1939. After docking in New Jersey on August 27th they had a few whirlwind adventures before taking the train home. Excerpts: “Here we are in NJ…. Went dancing in eve with Alex had a fine time at childs…Got letter from D. J and Flo…Saw Wizard of Oz with Judy G. And Mickey R. In person…” Aug 27 1939. They also went to the World’s Fair Radio City Music Hall shopping and visiting friends before getting on a train on August 30th due west. The final entry: “Arrived home by 830 met by Dad Isabell and Everet and home spent the day unpacking very tired. Retired early writing. ‘Twas a grand trip Mary & Marge Winchester” Sept 2 1939. As well as tracking their trip in daily diary format Mary made use of the Travel Diary’s formal format and listed side trips such as Oakland San Francisco Port Glasgow Edinburgh and New York. She summarizes her experiences briefly there though most are written up in elaborate detail within her main entries. She also fills out the People Met section listing many new friends and a few addresses. Examples: “Jessie is Mrs. Binns…. Mr. And Mrs. Wood Oklahoma Mr. Crawford at Trossauds…” And in the Incidents section she records: “Baby chimp at zoo church announcement and christening Eastern Star…”Tipped into the diary is a single photo of three people dressed in military uniform. On the back it is noted that the people are “Soldier Duddington ATS Margaret Sailor Stewart” and the photos stamped Aug 1942. Taken together this diary is a terrific summary of the experience of a European-American journeying home and realizing all she left behind for her new life in America while simultaneously seeing her home region in a new light as an adult with an astute eye to its history. Family conflict is alluded to though never explicitly discussed and the experience of the young Marjorie an American-born daughter of immigrants is also alluded to. Approximately 90 pages of handwriting. Diary was originally written in pencil but it is evident that someone has traced it in pen. Unknown as to whether that was Mary herself. The diary is in very good condition. ; Manuscripts; 32mo 4" - 5" tall; Hand Written Personal Memoir Handwritten hand written autograph autographs signed letters document documents manuscript manuscripts writers writer author holograph personal Americana Travel Steamship Ocean Travel Pre - World War Two World War II Scotland Great Britain Wizard of Oz Mickey Rooney New York World's Fair Exposition ; Signed by Autograph . hardcover‎

‎MARY KIBLING‎

‎1886 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A VERY ACTIVE STUDENT OF THE TILDEN FEMALE SEMINARY IN NORTH CENTRAL NEW HAMPSHIRE‎

‎WEST LEBANON NEW HAMPSHIRE. Good. 1886. On offer is a fascinating diary authored by a 20-year old Mary D. Kibling a student of the Tilden Female Seminary from a noted local family. The diary contains over 100 pages with an entry for every day of the year with additional information for some of the days at the end in the memoranda section. It also includes an address book and lists of her expenses and Christmas gifts. The diary measures 6'2x4' the leather flap cover is slightly worn but otherwise it is in a very good condition. The handwriting is mostly legible though slightly faded at some places. Mary was born in 1866 she belonged to a noted family of New England farmers and businessmen - her grandfather Lorenzo D. Kibling was a merino sheep farmer and her father Asahel - a wool merchant. At the time when she was writing her diary Mary studied at the Tilden Ladies Seminary founded in 1854 and serving students living in West Lebanon. Named after its largest contributor William Tilden it had among its founders professor Allen H. Weld and Charles Brickett Haddock then well-known educators and authors Haddock was also a politician. Though most of the entries are brief as a whole they create an excellent picture of what was middle class young women's life like at the end of the 19th century. Mary Kibling spends time writes with her family and friends shopping dancing taking small trips. Many entries mention painting and practising music. Here are some of the typical entries: "Went to Seminary. German ok. Practiced. Got ready about five and went up to Nell Smiths and went to the oyster supper with that crowd. Began to dance at nine. I danced thirteen out of eighteen. Chet Rio brought Nell and I home and Frank Foote took Minnie King of course. We all went in big teams." Jan 22; "Dance till about three. Got home at 5 five in the morning. Found door open and hall full of snow. Slept about an hour. ." Feb. 27; "Went to Seminary at 8. Studied this P.M. Will O. came about 7. We went to ride most to West Hartford then around the Glen. He did not act gentlemanly and I was disgusted. Got home about 10. He came in and staid a few moments." Some entries mention visits to a dentist though short they give a pretty good idea about the state of dentistry at that time: "Wore rubber between my front teeth all forenoon and had three filled in P.M. Hurt awfully. Mr. Brown said "Too bad" and laughed so I cried. ." During one visit she had seven of her teeth pulled: "Had to wait for Dr. Manchester. Another woman had 13 teeth out and then I took the chair. Took ether and was four minutes going off. When I came to my teeth were gone 7 except one root." The diary contains many names of local residents and students. One of the entries mentions Charles Alexander Eastman a Santee Dakota physician educated at Boston University: "Memorial Day. Eastman the Indian student called this P.M. ." May 31st. In the early 20th century Eastman was one of the most prolific authors and speakers on Sioux ethnohistory and American Indian affairs. In 1886 he studied at the Dartmouth College on an Indian scholarship and possibly that he might know Mary's brother Curtis who was a Dartmouth graduate spent several years in Dakota as a high school principal and in 1880s served as a superintendent of schools in Strafford.; Manuscript; 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF LATE 19TH CENTURY 1880s GILDED AGE WOMEN EDUCATION IN 19TH CENTURY AMERICA FEMALE SEMINARIES TILDEN FEMALE SEMINARY TILDEN LADIES' SEMINARY WEST LEBANON NEW HAMPSHIRE VERMONT MARY KIBLING NEW ENGLAND BUSINESSMEN ENTERTAINMENT IN THE LATE 19TH CENTURY 1890s LIFESTYLE WOMEN'S STUDIES COURTSHIP AND DATING IN THE 19TH CENTURY AMERICA VERMONT GENEALOGY NEW HAMPSHIRE GENEALOGY AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS DIARY DIARIES JOURNALS PERSONAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . hardcover‎

‎Mary Lipshultz‎

‎1933 Diary of a Young Los Angeles California Women Coming of Age During the Great Depression‎

‎Los Angeles: Earthquake. Good with no dust jacket. 1933. Softcover. On offer is a very personal account of a year in the life of a young woman living in Los Angeles in the midst of the Great Depression. The author of the diary is Mary Lipshultz. Casual research has not turned up any additional biographical date on her. She was living at home with her parents in Los Angeles California. Context suggests that she was in her late teens or very early twenties. In her diary Mary Lipshultz is totally consumed with her relationships with girlfriends and boyfriends. She has apparently graduated from high school. She spends most of her days doing various household tasks. Although her family does not appear to be wealthy they are comfortable and her father has regular work enabling both Mary and her mother to frequently go shopping. She does look for work but is generally unsuccessful: "In the morning I went to look for work alone but had no success" Feb 13; "I went down to Morries' store early to see about a job. He told me he didn't need me." Apr 15. Eventually she found work in Broadway's one of the premier department store chains of the time. Broadway's was later acquired by Federated Department Stores and stores were merged or re-branded as Macy's or Bloomingdales. "Francis and I went to work in the Broadway. I was scared. Worked at Draperies on the 7 th fl." July 17. Lipshultz grew up in the Great Depression. By 1933 it was firmly entrenched in the United States. Franklin Roosevelt became President and though hampered by the Dust Bowl began the process of rebuilding the American economy - a process that would last a decade until the United States entered WWII. She notes a 'bank holiday' which had everyone worried: "Today the Banks declared a legal holiday. Everyone worried" Mar 2. This entry was discussing the Emergency Banking Act one of FDR's first projects in the first 100 days of his presidency in an effort to address banking failures and other economic woes that gripped the country. As noted above Lipshultz was completely focused on personal and family matters in her diary. As one might expect from a girl her age social relationships were paramount: "Morrie Lerner called me and made a date with me for Monday night. Oh! Diary dear please make him like me! " Jan 12; "In the evening Lou came up unexpectedly. He gets sweeter all the time. We two act terrible. I'll have to try and cut it out. We're going a little too far" July 6; "In the afternoon Lee came up. She is as nice as ever & is making every effort to get together again. In the evening Lou came up and he asked me to go steady again. I won't ever go steady with him as we have too long to wait. I will probably change my mind a dozen times but we will see" July 22. Although almost exclusively focuses on her own personal experiences she does note some major external events. For example. She records the major Long Branch earthquake: "About 6 p. M. We had a terrible earthquake. . It kept shaking all the time and as Pa was at Murrietta Hot Springs we went to Fays. Nervous. We spent the night outside." Mar 10. The inauguration of Franklin Roosevelt on March 4th 1933 passes without comment. For a social historian this is an excellent window into the world of a young American girl in the depths of the Great Depression and through her eyes the wider community in which she lives. A researcher into Women's Studies would find this a terrific description of the life and expected roles of women at this period of time in America. This would all begin to change within a decade. Measuring 6.5 inches by 4.5 inches it contains 183 pages and is 100% complete. The covers are in good condition with signs of wear on the corners and the spine. The pages are in good condition and the hand writing is legible. ; Manuscripts; 16mo 6" - 7" tall; 183 pages; Keywords: Handwritten manuscript document letter autograph writer hand written documents signed letters manuscripts historical holograph writers autographs personal memoir memorial antiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier antike brief pergament dokument manuskript papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel Great Depression Women's Studies Women's Experiences Teenage Girls 20th Century Americana Broadway's department store Macy's Bloomingdale's Long Branch Earthquake coming of age dating during the depression dating in America job search .

‎MARY LUCILLE ARCHER‎

‎1939 - 1944 ORIGINAL HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF A YOUNG STUDIOUS WOMAN WITH AN ACTIVE SOCIAL LIFE OF FRIENDS FASHION AND BOYS UNTIL SHE GRADUATES HIGH SCHOOL AND BEGINS HER STUDIES AS A PROMISING NURSING STUDENT‎

‎LITTLE ROCK ARKANSAS AK ST. VINCENT'S. Good. 1939. On offer is the five year diary of Mary Lucille Archer a High School aged girl living an exciting life in Little Rock Arkansas. The diary begins in 1939 with Lucille finishing her last year of Middle School and beginning her first year of high school. Her entries early in the diary are fairly simple and easy stating in a matter-of-fact way the events of the day. She attends school everyday studies quite often and states that she graduates from middle school with ‘all four honors’. She also spends time with many of the friends who will stay with her throughout all of her highschool years. She writes often of having a ‘grand time.’ There are very few entries from 1940 and they are usually short statement. Usually they just say “Letter from Margaret” who is the author’s sister. 1941 and 1942 have the most consistent entries in the diary showing a maturing woman coming into her own in the South. She travels occasionally going to places such as Nashville Memphis and in the summer the very small town of Meridian Arkansas where a good bit of her extended family lives. Starting in 1941 there is now almost constant talk of boys fashion and friends. She has a number of suitors in these years and she often goes on dates with these boys sometimes a number of dates in a week. She also attends church occasionally goes horseback riding often in the summer sees movies and plays and in general lives a social and active young life. After she graduated cum laude from High School in 1942 she has an active summer with family and friends and then gets a job at a local department store. This does not last long though as she writes that she goes to see ‘Sister Mary Louis about getting in training’ for nursing at St. Vincent’s School of Nursing in Little Rock. The Sister gives her an application. At the very end of the month December 29th Mary is accepted into St. Vincent’s where she will study until 1946 graduating and becoming a Registered Nurse. The very back pages of the book contain a number of addresses of people mentioned in the diary as well as lists of birthdays 1942 Christmas presents and Graduation presents. The front cover of the book states “The Property of: Mary Lucille Archer. 5516 West 29th St. Little Rock Arkansas.” There is also a little note in the top corner that reads “From: Aunt Jessie.

‎ALLENTOWN PENNSYLVANIA USS TENNESSEE. Good. 1913. On offer is an excellent very detailed original 5-year diary handwritten by a Lehigh University female student who appears to be from an affluent family. Margaret Shimer is an 18 year old girl living in Allentown Pennsylvania. Daughter of a well-to-do family she enjoys a very comfortable life during the years of WWI. In high school when the diary begins her entries are full of remarks about social activities and friends. With her mother she enjoys shopping for dresses hats and such meeting friends and going dancing. From context we learn that she attends a local post-secondary institution while unnamed she refers to Professor Hughes and we note a Professor Hughes at Lehigh University at that time and geographically it makes a near conclusive case 'Asked Prof. Hughes if he would sign my degree and he said he would .'

‎MARY or MARGARET DISCON [?]‎

‎1922 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY DESCRIBING A DAY SPENT TRAVELING AND VISITING A VILLAGE IN SINGAPORE NEAR SARIBUE DOLOK BY AN UNUSUALLY OBSERVANT AND INTREPID BRITISH WOMAN‎

‎KAMPONG INDONESIA SINGAPORE 1922. On offer is a super original 1922 manuscript diary of a woman who we believe is named Margaret or Mary Discon. While she has not identified herself she does seem to refer to herself at some point in the third person. The diary describes her time spent in Kampong Singapore near Saribue Dolok. Using 8½ x 14 inch sheets of paper folded but loose she describes her time over 17 pages with some photos as titled: "A Day at _____gale." While the first part of the place name is difficult to read we are sure that local researchers and historians will no doubt uncover the location especially given the detailed clues leading up to the spot. Here are some snippets: "It was with gay hearts that we sat in the lamplight making the best breakfast we could with nerves thrilling in anticipation of the days jaunt while the boy and his wife saw to the storing of baskets of provisions; lemons soda waters etc. etc. We stepped into the car as the sun was lighting the east and a cool breeze making coats very necessary. Our days outing had been looked forward to for weeks and the visit of a fellow passenger brought the journey to completion. The jungle sounds were ceasing and domestic animals of all specimens were beginning to stir. First we went through rubber then a long street of palm shaded road through a struggling and picturesque Kampong…." Their car gets stuck in the mud and they have to have the village people dig them out: "….we reached Saribue Dolok which seemed to consist solely of a large store and a missionary's house but they usually have been native Kampong's hidden in the hollows here and there for we saw numerous parties of Balaks silently following each other to the market in Indian file…." They are now on their way to a volcano. Also describes the natives clothing. Back to Kampong. "The Kampong of Harring all lies just above the shore guarded by banyan trees. The rest house is a pleasant little bungalow provided by the Dutch government for visiting officials and lent for a small fee to any traveler. Here we found contrary to repost that a well supplied table was provided….We crossed a small stream the stream was small but gully was broad by a bridge consisting of two thin tree trunks on one side of which was a low rattan rope which gave us help and hardly any confidence…." They finally board a boat and she mentions how the crowds of people started gathering to watch them and has a photo showing just this scene. They finally return to the rest house. The diary pages were folded actually misfolded and the edges of the pages are a bit brittle and chipped with some little loss but overall Fair. . Fair. Folio - over 12" - 15" tall.

‎MARY REDMAYNE‎

‎THE 1944 - 1949 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF MARY REDMAYNE A YOUNG BRITISH GIRL OF ASHTON ON RIBBLE SEES CHURCHILL‎

‎Preston Lancashire England Great Britain UK. Good. 1944. Decorative Cloth. On offer is a super handwritten manuscript diary written by Mary Redmayne who was a 'girl next door' average teenage girl during the Second World War in Preston Lancashire in the small town of Ashton on Ribble. She was a dedicated diarist purchasing her new diary on Feb. 19 1944 and filling it up to date from the beginning of January obviously she took notes each day because every day is full from the beginning of the year with small daily details of life and continuing to fill it to the maximum in neat beautifully legible printing for the next five years. During that time she went from being a typical school girl writing the classes are "swotting" and we suspect skipping a lot of classes too but being successful in her levels to becoming a teacher for very young children as well as a dancer painter and Guide leader. She seems to have had lots of family in Ashton and surrounding area and we believe hat her brother's name Leonard Redmayne is very common in the area going back centuries.It is wonderful to read an unromanticized account of daily life in Britain for a teenaged girl in the midst of war. There is mention of taking gas masks to school a plane down near Cadley C and her father being on Fire Watch regularly but the majority of entries do not mention the war and show that even in the midst of tragedy and terror life goes on. Mary loved going to movies and mentions many by name along with her opinion of them and often seemed to get in trouble with her teachers because she did not mince words. A typical teenager. Some of the places mentioned in this diary include: Haslam Park Bletchley Wigan Bishops Startford London Radwinter Manchester Great Eccleston Blackpool Goosenargh Inglewhite Longridge and Grimsargh. Some of the people mentioned in the diary are Stotts J Loftus Miss Matthews Mr Charles Greehalghs Mona Spud and Jean D Royles Mrs. Preston Dorothy Allen Mrs Bolton and Parkinsons. In addition as shown in the scans there is a list at the back of the diary of her friends whom she mentioned in the diary regularly using their initials. The best way to give you a sense of what this girl's life was like is to quote from the diary: Went back to school. B.B. was awfully pleased about Pre. Got bulls-eye. Had teeth outh. Dad made vow. Teeth started to bleed. Bled all night. Bit a cork. Went in taxi to dentists. He plugged tooth which was bleeding. Had a sleep. Borrowed books from Pat which I read all night. Fire in room. Bought stuff for patrol bag. Began to make it. Mother stuffed curtains. Began to knit socks out of RAF scarf. Had blancmange for tea. Stood on Harris steps to see King and Queen. Did not speak. Got new Sonata. Swotted Geog. New Dress. June Kalina talked about her engagement to a "Yank". Braitch in bad temper because late. Got to report. went to see "Madonna of the Seven Moons." VG. Knitted. Settled about second-hand books. Had lecture on "dangerous objects" Began to make a frock. Went to see "This is the Army." Dec. 24 Sirens went 5:30-6:30. Fly bombs. Thud. Went to church and SS. Edyth wearing new blue coat. Went to Grays. Mum made row about Uncle Albert. Went to Joyces. Relations there. Went to our classifying houses. Announcement at 3pm that hostilities had ceased. Went errands. Went bike ride round Ribbleton through town. Watched tennis. Watched victory procession of show people. Went on Humpty bikes. Played tennis on Stanley Park. Went to Ice Show. Watched celebrations near town hall. What is striking to me is how matter-of-fact she is talking about the bombs and lectures on "dangerous objects" which suggests mines and unexploded ordnance and then carries on in the next sentence talking about new dresses going to church and the mundane daily routines. It is clear that war was a part of life for her and that she was accustomed to it having grown up with it. Her brother Leonard was in France and wrote home about a French girl near the end of the war but came home a couple of times during the course of the war so I am not sure what he was up to. She mentions the death of Roosevelt and sees Mr Churchill on his visit to Preston in June. She takes piano lessons and we believe that she is also teaching piano by the end of the diary. The diary is in good condition though the first few pages of January are taped in and the binding of the book has separated from the spine. However the binding is attached firmly to the diary pages and all the pages are accounted for and apart from the taped pages are firmly attached to each other. The binding strap is attached and the clasp to hold the diary closed still works. Every page is full so this is a treasure trove of information about daily life in Lancashire in the 1940's. ; Manuscript; 24mo - over 5" - 5¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF WWII WW2 UNITED KINGDOM BATTLE OF BRITAIN THE BLITZ HITLER GERMANY NAZIS BRITAIN ENGLAND HOMEFRONT WORLD WAR II HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY . hardcover‎

‎Gesichter, Orte und Politik , zum Schaffen von Adam Zielinski‎

‎Krakow, Selbstverlag, 2001. 131 S. mit Illustrationen OPappeinband‎

‎Einband sauber, ein wenig bestoßen, Seiten sauber und ohne Einträge, zum oberen Schnitt gering wellig, Adam Zielinski, Sohn eines Rechtsanwaltes, wurde in Drohobycz, unweit von Lemberg, geboren und wurde während des Zweiten Weltkrieges Vollwaise, da die Nationalsozialisten erst seinen Vater, dann seine Mutter töteten.

Seit 1989 trat er als Schriftsteller hervor und erhielt zahlreiche nationale und internationale Auszeichnungen und literarische Preise. Zielinski war seit dem 14.

‎Serenissime. Le donne illustri di Venezia dal Medioevo a oggi‎

‎br. Tra le tante città rappresentate da leoni, destrieri, volatili - maschi e crudeli - la Serenissima si contraddistingueva per essere raffigurata in forma di giustizia: femmina e misericordiosa. Era una repubblica e non un regno, era governata da una classe sociale, i patrizi, e non da una famiglia. Forse è per questo che nel corso della sua storia a Venezia le donne hanno trovato molto più spazio che altrove. Non bisogna fraintendere: il concetto di parità fra i sessi era ben al di là da venire, ma nell'ultramillenaria storia della repubblica si susseguono figure femminili che hanno avuto un ruolo fondamentale negli avvenimenti della loro epoca e spesso anche in quelli successivi. Le "Serenissime" ripercorre le vite di dodici grandi donne, dal medioevo ai giorni nostri, da Marietta Barovier, la vetraia che inventa le perle di vetro colorate - antenate delle odierne murrine - a Nicoletta Strambelli, la contante nota come Patty Pravo. Alcune di loro hanno stabilito record di cui tutta Italia dovrebbe andare fiera: Elena Lucrezia Corner Piscopia, la prima laureata del mondo, o Elisabetta Caminer, la prima direttrice di giornale in Italia. Altre sono figure discusse, come Margherita Sarfatti, cofondatrice del fascismo a fianco di Benito Mussolini, e insigne storica dell'arte. Quasi tutte però hanno un tratto comune: sono state più o meno dimenticate. Questo libro vuole mantenerne viva la memoria.‎

‎* George Desmarées (* 29. Oktober 1697 auf Gimo, Schweden; ? 3. Oktober 1776 in München; eigentlich de Marées) war ein schwedischer Maler und einer der wichtigsten Porträtisten des Rokoko. Schreibweise des Vornamens: In der älteren Literatur findet sich häufig die Schreibweise Georges. Neben George ist in moderneren Publikationen, allerdings nur sehr selten, die Form Georg zu finden. Auf einer dem Künstler zugedachten Medaille von Franz Andreas Schega aus dem Jahre 1750 findet sich auch die lateinische Schreibweise Georgius. Nach dem Tod der Eltern kam Desmarées nach Stockholm, wo er die Malschule von Peter Martin van Mytens (dem Älteren) besuchte. Seit 1720 war er selbständiger Porträtmaler und ging ab dem Frühjahr 1724 auf eine Studienreise. So reiste er erst nach Amsterdam und ging dann nach Nürnberg, wo er die Zeichenakademie besuchte. 1725 gelangte er nach Venedig und wurde Schüler von Giovanni Battista Piazzetta. 1730 wurde er von Karl Albrecht, dem Kurfürsten von Bayern und späteren Kaiser Karl VII., an den Münchner Hof berufen und erhielt den Titel des kurfürstlichen Hofmalers. Ab 1743 erfolgte die Berufung an zahlreiche deutsche Fürstenhöfe. Die bedeutendsten und umfangreichsten Aufträge erhielt er von dem Kölner Kurfürsten Clemens August I. von Bayern. Über diesen Auftraggeber erreichte Desmarées auch Kunden wie die Erzbischöfe Friedrich Karl von Schönborn-Buchheim und Johann Philipp Anton von und zu Frankenstein. Aber auch der Fürstbischof von Mainz Johann Friedrich Karl von Ostein und dessen Nachfolger Emmerich Joseph von Breidbach zu Bürresheim bestellten Bilder bei Desmarées. Er war u. a. Lehrer von Johann Joseph Scheubel III. (1733?1801) in Bamberg. Von 1745 bis 1749 sowie von 1752 bis 1754 weilte er am Bonner Hof. 1756 ging er zurück nach München, wo er kurz vor seinem 79. Geburtstag am 3. Oktober 1776 starb. Werke: Desmarées schuf eine sehr große Zahl an Porträts; von der bayrischen Fürstenfamilie existieren allein über 50. Außerdem malte er Bilder mit geistlichen und profanen Sujets, von denen viele auch gestochen wurden. In Schloss Augustusburg in Brühl befinden sich über ein Dutzend Gemälde von seiner Hand; ebenso viele fanden sich in Schloss Clemensruhe in Poppelsdorf. Weitere Werke befinden sich u. a. in München (Residenz, Lenbachhaus, Amalienburg, Theatinerkirche, Alte Pinakothek ?), Madrid (Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza), Fulda (Schloss Adolphseck), Neue Residenz (Bamberg), Würzburg (Residenz/ Fürstensaal, Mainfränkisches Museum), Polling (Kirche), Kloster Ettal.

‎Gutes Ex.; Rücken mit Aufkleber; Stempel "Deutsch-Japanische Gesellschaft" u. hs. Eintrag. - Als Träger und Förderer der Modernisierung und Entwicklung des neuen Japan nach der Restauration 1868 kann man Generaloberstabsarzt Dr. med. et phil. Mori Ogai nicht genug hochschätzen und glorifizieren. Aus den kulturhistorischen Seiten des modernen Japan ist er gar nicht wegzudenken. Ungemein hochbegabt, war er in seinen 60 Lebensjahren auf diversen kulturellen Gebieten tätig. Schon Anfang der Zwanziger hatte er Gelegenheit, zum Studium der Medizin vier Jahre in Deutschland, in dem sich aufschwingenden Deutschland zu leben. Er fühlte sich verpflichtet, sein liebes Heimatland erfolgreich dem Licht der westlichen Wissenschaft und Zivilisation auszusetzen, damit Japan möglichst schnell den fortgeschrittenen europäischen Ländern gleichkommen könnte. Als Mediziner beherrschte der junge Japaner Deutsch bereits vollkommen. Aber vor Wißbegier brennend, las er mit nie erlahmendem Eifer noch viele literarische wie auch philosophische Bücher, um in die deutsche Sprache und ihren Kulturraum weiter und tiefer einzudringen. ? (S. 7) // ? (es) wurde bereits in dem Tagebuch von Ogai (am 6. März d. J.) erzählt, daß der deutsche Geologe Dr. E. Naumann in Dresden einen Japan und die Japaner verspottenden Vortrag hielt und die Gefühle von Ogai, einem der Zuhörer, tief verletzte. Ende Juni tat Dr. Naumann hier in München noch einen weiteren Schritt der Japankritik, der den hier befindlichen Ogai bis aufs Blut reizte. Am 26. und 29. d. M. veröffentlichte nämlich Dr. Naumann in der "Allgemeinen Zeitung" den Artikel Land und Volk der japanischen Inselkette und äußerte seinen Vorwurf der "kritiklosen Nachahmung" westlicher Zivilisation und "Oberflächlichkeit der Erneuerung" Japans. Am 6. März hatte er seine Mißbilligung zu der raschen Modernisierung Japans vor nur 300 Zuhörern ausgedrückt. Diesmal aber in einer vielgelesenen und somit einflußreichen Zeitung! Sehr rasch wird sich der Ring von Vorurteilen über Japan bilden ? (S. 72)‎
